🔍 Key Concepts

• Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) jurisdiction in U.S. waters • Which federal agency manages offshore leasing and drilling rights • Difference between regulation/enforcement vs ownership/leasing

💭 Think About

• Think about which agency is responsible for issuing leases and managing energy resources on the U.S. outer continental shelf, not just enforcing safety or navigation rules. • Consider what each option normally does: which one surveys/classifies ships, which builds projects, which enforces maritime safety, and which oversees offshore oil and gas development? • Ask yourself: beyond state waters, who actually controls who may drill and where on the federal seabed?

✅ Before You Answer

• Match each answer choice with its primary mission (navigation safety, ship classification, civil works, offshore resource management). • Recall that state ownership usually ends at a certain distance from shore; beyond that, the seabed is managed by a specific federal resource agency, not a safety or classification body. • Verify which agency historically handled OCS oil and gas leasing and drilling approvals for federal waters.
