| 2011-16288 | Oil and Gas and Sulphur Operations in the Outer Continental Shelf-Civil Penalties | Rule | The Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA) requires the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement (BOEMRE) to review the maximum daily civil penalty assessment for violations of regulations implementing the OCSLA at least once every 3 years (43 U.S.C. 1350). Similarly, a review and adjustment process is required at least once every 4 years for the maximum daily civil penalty assessment allowable under the Oil Pollution Act (OPA) of 1990 for violations of regulations governing financial responsibility (28 U.S.C. 2461). These reviews ensure that the maximum penalty assessments reflect any increases in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as prepared by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, and therefore keep up with inflation. BOEMRE conducted these reviews in October 2010 for the OCSLA regulations and in January 2011 for the OPA regulations. BOEMRE determined that the maximum daily civil penalty assessment for violations of its OCSLA regulations should be increased to $40,000, and the maximum daily civil penalty assessment for violations of its financial responsibility regulations should be increased to $30,000. | 2011-06-30 | 2011 | 6 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2011/06/30/2011-16288/oil-and-gas-and-sulphur-operations-in-the-outer-continental-shelf-civil-penalties | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2011-06-30/pdf/2011-16288.pdf | Interior Department; Ocean Energy Management, Regulation, and Enforcement Bureau | 253,568 | The Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA) requires the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement (BOEMRE) to review the maximum daily civil penalty assessment for violations of regulations implementing the OCSLA at least once... |
