Testimony from Offshore Energy Hearing (4/19/05)

On April 19, 2005, the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources held hearings on Offshore Energy, including the future of alternative energy resources on the Outer Continental Shelf.  Witness testimony from the Senate Hearing may be viewed here. Section 2010 of the House Energy Bill (HR 6) addresses alternative energy uses on the Outer Continental Shelf, though we still do not know whether the Senate version will mirror the House provisions.

We’ll be tracking these provisions for you at the Ocean Renewable site and analyzing their implications for ocean energy development.   But we appreciate input from our members on these provisions which you can email to carolyn.elefant@gmail.com or post below in the comments area.
