§ 585.236 - If I have a limited lease, how long will my lease remain in effect?
(a) For limited leases, the lease periods are as shown in the following table:
| Lease period | Extension or suspension | Requirements | (1) Each limited lease has a preliminary period of 12 months within which to submit a GAP. The preliminary period begins on the effective date of the lease | If we receive a GAP that satisfies the requirements of §§ 585.640 through 585.648, the preliminary period will be automatically extended for the period of time necessary for us to conduct a technical and environmental review of the GAP | The GAP must meet the requirements of §§ 585.640 through 585.648. | (2) Each limited lease has an operations period as specified by BOEM (if the lease is issued competitively) or negotiated with the applicant (if the lease is issued noncompetitively). In either case, the duration of the operations period will depend on the intended use of the lease. The operations period begins on the date that we approve your GAP | We may order or grant a suspension of the operations period as provided in §§ 585.415 through 585.421 |
|---|
(b) You may request an extension of any of the lease periods outlined in paragraph (a) of this section for good cause. In its discretion, BOEM may approve your request.
