of oil or natural gas, as ‘‘burden’’ is
defined in section 2(b) of E.O. 13783. In
fact, this rule is deregulatory in nature
and will decrease existing burdens on
offshore producers of oil and natural
gas.
The BSEE has also reviewed this final
rule for consistency with E.O. 13795
(‘‘Implementing an America-First
Offshore Energy Strategy’’), which
requires the Department to take certain
actions to encourage energy exploration
and production, including on the OCS,
while ensuring that those exploration
and production activities are safe and
environmentally responsible.
Specifically, the BSEE has determined
that this rule is necessary because it is
both required by law and is consistent
with the policy set forth in section 2 of
E.O. 13795.

§ 250.180 What am I required to do to keep
my lease term in effect?
(a) * * *
(1) You must submit a report to the
District Manager according to
paragraphs (h) and (i) of this section
whenever production begins initially,
whenever production ceases during the
last year of the primary term, and
whenever production resumes during
the last year of the primary term.

*
(b) If you stop conducting operations
during the last year of your primary
lease term, your lease will expire unless
you either resume operations or receive
an SOO or an SOP from the Regional
Supervisor under § 250.172, § 250.173,
§ 250.174, or § 250.175 before the end of
the year after you stop operations.
