Offshore Drilling Project on Anadarko's Bob Douglas Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Undergoes Preliminary Assessment
The draft Outer Continental Shelf Air Permit for Anadarko Petroleum Corporation's Gulf of Mexico Exploratory Drilling Operations on the Noble Bob Douglas platform, dated November 14, 2016, is a 1.14 MB document. This permit pertains to the November 2016 operations and is specific to the Noble Bob Douglas drilling site.
The permit falls under the jurisdiction of EPA Region 4, as per the Clean Air Act (CAA) section 328, which covers the Gulf of Mexico east of 87'30". The draft permit does not provide any new information about the Clean Air Act (CAA) requirements or enforcement for Outer Continental Shelf sources offshore the states of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida.
Kelly Fortin, who can be contacted for the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Permit related to Anadarko Petroleum Corporation in EPA Region 4, can be reached at 404-562-9117. The draft Outer Continental Shelf Air Permit for Anadarko is identified as OCS-EPA-R4021, the same identification given to the permit for their Gulf of Mexico Exploratory Drilling Operations on the Noble Bob Douglas platform.
However, recent searches for the current status of Anadarko's air permit for Gulf of Mexico Exploratory Drilling Operations have not yielded any specific results. The search results focus mainly on unrelated topics, such as California refinery operations and a general Texas Comptroller vendor database, with no mention of Anadarko, EPA Region 4 air permits, or Gulf of Mexico drilling operations.
Anadarko Petroleum Corporation was acquired by Occidental Petroleum in 2019, which may affect permit ownership or status. Offshore Gulf of Mexico drilling may also involve EPA Region 6 or Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) jurisdiction.
To find the current status of this specific air permit, one would likely need to consult EPA Region 4's official air permits database or contact the regional office directly. Additionally, BOEM or Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) for offshore drilling permits, and the EPA’s online database or FOIA requests for CAA section 328 permits related to offshore exploratory drilling could provide valuable information.
Without explicit new information in the search results, no definitive update can be given on the permit status at this time.
