    The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) has announced the availability of the Area Identification for the proposed Cook Inlet Oil and Gas Lease Sale 258 in northern Cook Inlet, Alaska. This step is part of the 2017-2022 National Outer Continental Shelf Oil and Gas Leasing Program. The Area ID is a preliminary assessment and does not mean that leasing will definitely occur; further steps, including environmental analysis and public comments, are still needed. More information is accessible on BOEM's website and through contact with their Alaska Regional Office.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is thinking about letting companies explore a part of the sea in Alaska to see if they can find oil and gas, but they need to ask for everyone's thoughts and make sure it's safe first.

    The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) issued a notice correcting a previous publication about the California Offshore Wind Draft Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement. The original document, published in the Federal Register on November 14, 2024, had mistakenly listed the wrong start date for the 90-day comment period. The notice clarifies that the comment period actually began on November 14, 2024. For further details, Lisa Gilbane at BOEM can be contacted.

    Simple Explanation

    BOEM made a mistake and told people the wrong day to start sharing their thoughts about a plan for wind energy in California. Now, they've fixed it and said the right day to start was November 14, 2024.
