The 2017-2022 Outer Continental Shelf Oil and Gas Leasing Program includes one proposed lease sale in the northern portion of the planning area, designated as Lease Sale 258. The proposed action evaluated in the draft review would offer for lease all available outer continental shelf blocks in the northern portion of the planning area. The proposed lease sale area comprises 224 blocks, which covers an area of about 1.09 million acres.
