Update 1, April 1982: Outer Continental Shelf oil and gas activities in the North Atlantic and their onshore impacts: A summary report, July 1981

In July 1981, the Office of Outer Continental Shelf Information (OCSI) issued the initial North Atlantic Summary Report for the North Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Region. It provided State and local governments with current information about OCS oil and gas resources and related offshore and onshore activities in the North Atlantic Region, from New Jersey to Maine. The report was intended to assist in the planning for the onshore impacts of OCS activities in the North Atlantic States. Updates to summary reports are published approximately every 6 months in order to provide supplemental information to the summary reports. Revisions to summary reports are published only when a new OCS lease sale is held or when a commercial discovery is announced in that OCS region.
