Outer Continental Shelf Moratoria on Oil and Gas Development by Curry L. Hagerty PDF Summary

These annual congressional moratoria expired on Sept. 30, 2008. While the expiration of the legislative restrictions does not make leasing and drilling permissible in all offshore areas, it is a significant development in conjunction with other changes in offshore leasing activity.
