Today, the Subcommittee will discuss a written discussion draft that continues a conversation about the relationship between the Federal Government and the states most immediately affected by the development of federally-owned minerals.

Having seen the stagnation of oil and gas production on Federal land is very worrying, and I think your proposal to turn it over to the states... is a very good way to get around the mismanagement that the BLM doesn't seem to be able to…

These concepts seek to start a conversation about the relationship between states and Federal offshore development.
