The Bureau Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is to manage development of U.S. Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) energy, mineral, and geological resources in an environmentally and economically responsible way. We seek to provide our staff with the resources and processes needed for timely and well-documented decisions, synthesizing science, policy, regulations, and other factors. We are committed to acquiring, cultivating, and retaining the subject matter expertise needed for sound and efficient decision-making. We employ the best available science, Indigenous Knowledge, and local knowledge, incorporating these observations within thoughtful and rigorous methodological frameworks that transform the best available science and data into information useful to interested parties.
