What it does
The Central Coast of California Conservation Act of 2025 would amend the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act to prohibit the Secretary of the Interior from issuing any new oil and gas leases for exploration, development, or production in the Central California Planning Area. This prohibition applies regardless of any other provisions in the law and is intended to protect the region’s marine and coastal environment. The bill affects federal offshore energy planning and would impact potential future oil and gas activities off the central California coast. It was introduced by a bipartisan group of House members and referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources for further consideration.
