This index provides lease sale information for oil and gas deposits in the outer continental shelf (OCS) of the Gulf of Mexico. A description of the OCS leasing process is presented. Information is also included on the final OCS oil and gas leasing schedule (July 1982), which is based on a streamlined leasing process to expedite OCS oil and gas exploration and development. New pre-sale procedures such as the call for information and area identification are described in chapter 3. Chapter 2 chronicles the oil- and gas-related history of the Gulf of Mexico OCS Region from 1974 to the present. Chapter 3 describes the steps in the pre- and post-sale processes. Relevant documents produced between December 1980 and August 1982 are listed by sale for each step. Ongoing progams of the Minerals Management Service that support the OCS leasing process are described in Chapter 4. Chapter 5 discusses state involvement in the OCS leasing process and includes tables showing state participation in each of the steps, as well as autonomous state responsibilities for OCS-related activities. The appendixes include directories of federal and state OCS-related contacts and other information pertinent to the OCS leasing process.
