The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management's (BOEM) Environmental Studies Program (ESP) develops, funds, and manages rigorous scientific research specifically to inform policy decisions on the development of energy and mineral resources on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). Environmental/socioeconomic research is designed to provide BOEM with information to assess, predict, monitor, and manage potential environmental impacts of activities it authorizes. As part of this effort, ESP staff prepare BOEM’s annual Studies Development Plan to cover a 2-year planning period. BOEM is starting to formulate its FY 2023-24 Studies Development Plan, and is seeking study ideas for consideration in Alaska, Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico, and Pacific OCS areas. Suggestions should be submitted in a short paragraph via e-mail to ESP by Dec. 10. All submissions become property of the federal government. Acceptance of an idea does not imply that the submitter will receive funding. (Source: Work Boat 11/09/21) BOEM seeks 2023-2024 study ideas | WorkBoat
