SOL Office has determined that the moratorium in the GOMR Eastern Planning Area that falls within the former "Eastern Gap" is in fact not under the moratorium

This data depicts the Areas in the Eastern GOM under Congressional Moratoria for the PFP 2017-2022 5-year program. The majority of the Eastern GOM and a small portion of the Central GOM are unavailable for leasing consideration until mid-2022 pursuant to GOMESA. This feature class was built as an update based on the latest SDETABS.PLANAREA_SDE feature class.





</idPurp><idAbs>&lt;DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;This is DOI’s Proposed Final Outer Continental Shelf Oil and Gas Leasing Program (PFP) for 2017-2022, which BOEM has prepared pursuant to the Act. Under section 18 of the Act, the Secretary of the Interior is responsible for preparing and maintaining a schedule of proposed OCS oil and gas lease sales determined to “best meet national energy needs for the 5-year period following its approval or reapproval,” while also taking into account a range of important principles and considerations specified by the Act. This PFP includes twelve potential lease sales in the GOM's three planning areas – the Western and Central Gulf of Mexico, and the portion of the Eastern GOM not currently under Congressional moratorium. That portion of the individual planning area that is being considered for leasing in a Five Year Program is referred to as the program area.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</idAbs><idCredit>Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Office of Leasing and Plans, Mapping and Automation
