This section requires periodic review of regulations under the ocean thermal energy conversion chapter. It directs revision when the required review shows that changes are needed.
The Administrator* and the Secretary* of the department in which the Coast Guard is operating must periodically, at intervals of not more than every 3 years, and in consultation with the Secretary of Energy, review any regulations promulgated under the provisions of this subchapter to determine the status and impact of such regulations on the continued development, evolution, and commercialization of ocean thermal energy conversion technology. The results of each such review must be included in the next annual report required by section 9165 1 of this title. The Administrator and such Secretary are authorized and directed to promulgate any revisions to the then effective regulations as are deemed necessary and appropriate based on such review, to ensure that any regulations promulgated under the provisions of this subchapter do not impede such development, evolution, and commercialization of such technology. Additionally, the Secretary of Energy is authorized to propose, based on such review, such revisions for the same purpose. The Administrator or such Secretary, as appropriate, must have exclusive jurisdiction about any such proposal by the Secretary of Energy and, under applicable procedures, must consider and take final action on any such proposal in an expeditious manner. Such consideration must include at least one informal hearing under the procedures in section 553 of title 5.
