30 CFR Part 583, Negotiated Noncompetitive Agreements for the Use of Sand, Gravel and Shell Resources on the Outer Continental Shelf

BOEM proposes to create a new part 583 of the Code of Federal Regulations by this rulemaking to address the use of OCS sand, gravel, and shell resources for its marine minerals program. The Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act requires BOEM enter into a negotiated agreement when the use of OCS sand, gravel and shell resources are authorized for use in qualifying projects. This final rule addresses the use of OCS sand, gravel, and shell resources for shore protection, beach restoration, or coastal wetlands restoration projects by Federal, State, or local government agencies, and for use in construction projects authorized by or funded in who or in part by the Federal Government. The final rule describes the negotiated noncompetitive agreement process for qualifying projects and codifies new and existing procedures.
