BOEM offshore energy plan open for public input

What the public could have raised, from the agency’s own document

• I oppose this action as proposed, and I ask the agency to weigh the specific harms below.
• BOEM must fully disclose the specific scope and purpose of this planning document before the public can meaningfully evaluate its impacts on the Outer Continental Shelf.
• This action concerns federal offshore waters, and any plan affecting OCS energy development or marine spatial planning must be subject to transparent, complete public review.
• Do not finalize any programmatic decisions about offshore drilling leases or renewable energy siting under this document without providing the full text for public comment.
• Say something only you can say. The law requires the agency to consider and respond to substantive comments, and specifics are what make a comment substantive.
