This joint resolution aims to disapprove and nullify a specific rule issued by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) concerning the protection of marine archaeological resources . It leverages the authority provided by chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, known as the Congressional Review Act, to prevent the rule from taking effect. If enacted, the BOEM rule, which was published in the Federal Register on September 3, 2024, would be rendered without any legal force or effect. This legislative action would effectively block the federal agency's regulatory efforts pertaining to marine archaeological sites, ensuring the rule cannot be implemented.
