In July 1981, the Outer Continental Shelf Oil and Gas Information Program issued the initial North Atlantic Summary Report (Dorrier, 1981, US Geological Survey Open-File Report 81-601) for the North Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). 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 Planning Area, 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. The first update to the North Atlantic Summary Report was published in April 1982 (Deis and Porter, 1982, US Geological Survey Open-File Report 82-16). It contained additional information about North Atlantic OCS activities that had occurred since the publication of the summary report. This report is the second update to the North Atlantic Summary Report. It provides information about oil and gas activities and their onshore impacts in the North Atlantic Planning Area for the period April 1982 to January 1983. The report includes oil and gas resource estimates; a description of Lease Sale 42 exploratory activities; a discussion of developments concerning two provisions contained in the settlement agreement of Lease Sale 42 litigation; information on upcoming Lease Sales 52, 82, and 96; oil and gas transportation strategies; onshore support activities; new OCS-related studies; and information about recent developments concerning consistency determinations and OCS revenue sharing. 3 figures, 2 tables.
