A bipartisan group of lawmakers from the East Coast on Wednesday delivered a letter to Interior Secretary Ken Salazar, urging him to create a new office focused on renewable energy projects on the Outer Continental Shelf. Offshore renewable energy development is managed by the former Minerals Management Service, which is now called the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement. The lawmakers are concerned that  BOE's attention to the restructuring of its regulation of offshore oil and gas  exploration and production will detract from the agency's ability to focus on offshore wind.
