(B) The Secretary shall include in each proposed oil and gas leasing program under this section any State subdivision of an outer Continental Shelf planning area that the Governor of the State that represents that subdivision requests be made available for leasing. The Secretary may not remove such a subdivision from the program until publication of the final program.

(6) (A) In the 5-year oil and gas leasing program, the Secretary shall make available for leasing any outer Continental Shelf planning areas that— (i) are estimated to contain more than 2,500,000,000 barrels of oil; or (ii) are estimated to contain more than 7,500,000,000,000 cubic feet of natural gas. (B) To determine the planning areas described in subparagraph (A), the Secretary shall use the document entitled Minerals Management Service Assessment of Undiscovered Technically Recoverable Oil and Gas Resources of the Nation’s Outer Continental Shelf, 2006 . . 102. Domestic oil and natural gas production goal Section 18(b) of the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1344(b)) is amended to read as follows: (b) Domestic oil and natural gas production goal – (1) In general In developing a 5-year oil and gas leasing program, and subject to paragraph (2), the Secretary shall determine a domestic strategic production goal for the development of oil and natural gas as a result of that program. Such goal shall be— (A) the best estimate of the possible increase in domestic production of oil and natural gas from the outer Continental Shelf; (B) focused on meeting domestic demand for oil and natural gas and reducing the dependence of the United States on foreign energy; and (C) focused on the production increases achieved by the leasing program at the end of the 15-year period beginning on the effective date of the program. (2) Program goal For purposes of the 5-year oil and gas leasing program, the production goal referred to in paragraph (1) shall be an increase by 2032 of— (A) no less than 3,000,000 barrels in the amount of oil produced per day; and (B) no less than 10,000,000,000 cubic feet in the amount of natural gas produced per day. (3) Reporting The Secretary shall report annually, beginning at the end of the 5-year period for which the program applies, to the Committee on Natural Resources of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources of the Senate on the progress of the program in meeting the production goal.
