The Region currently manages 49 Federal oil and gas leases offshore southern California, 43 of which are producing about 24 million barrels of oil and 47 billion cubic feet of gas annually from 23 platforms. Furthermore, under authority granted in the Energy Policy Act of 2005, the Region is accepting applications for renewable energy (e.g. wind, wave, hydrogen and solar) projects in Federal waters offshore Washington, Oregon, California and Hawaii. The Bureau published final regulations regarding the leasing and oversight of renewable energy activities in April 2009
