Below are the core objectives of Offshore Minerals Management:
Below are the Offshore Development Opportunities:
Offshore Development
Opportunities
Diversify the region's economy. Creating jobs in a new industry
will help diversify the economy away from our overreliance on
DOD spending.
As mentioned in the previous slides , there is a tremendous
amount of commonality between the offshore wind supply
chain, job skills, and offshore oil and gas development.
The regions upriver shipyards, Newport News Shipbuilding,
and Drydock Company/Huntington Ingalls, will be natural foci
for job creation.
Up to 25,000 new fobs could be created through the
development of Offshore Oil and Gas off Virginia. This number
could increase markedly if Hampton Roads became the port of
service for development off Maryland and North Carolina
(predictions from McDonnell administration, and others).

"Royalty Payments " should be considered more like "Revenue Payments ".-
Royalty
:
Royalty Payments
Royalty payments from offshore oil and gas are currently not
authorized under federal law for the area off the Atlantic Coast.
Efforts are underway at this time, spearheaded by
Congressman Scott Rigel[ to amend the federal code to allow
such payments.
It is estimated that if the Federal code were changed, as much
as $300M a year could flow to the Commonwealth/Hampton
Roads (predictions from McDonnell administration, and others)
These funds could be used for purposes as proscribed by
Congress, or the Virginia General Assembly. It is hoped that
funds could be dedicated for Hampton Roads needs such as
transportation, education or addressing Sea -Level Rise
impacts. These funds would NOT reduce existing royalty
payments to other states.
Royalty Payments (Cont.)
Since these resources are federally owned, oil &
gas must be extracted if possible because of
BOEM requirement and Market Reality
Existing Formula- Beyond 6 miles 18.75% for
oil, and 12.5 % for gas. A combined 37.5% share
of bonuses, rents, and royalties.

Risks From Offshore Oil & Gas
Development
Oil spills, blowouts, oil or other residue on beaches
Loss of income, damage to Virginia Beach resort "brand",
long-term residual economic impacts to
City/Commonwealth.
Loss of anticipated royalty payments
Ship collisions, groundings, other accidents
Disruption /conflict with military operations
Below is the Mitigation of Risks:
Mitigation of Risks
Prior to the BP accident in the Gulf of Mexico one agency the Office of
Minerals Management Services(MMS) was responsible for promoting
offshore and gas development and enforcing the regulations.
Three separate organizations were then created
1 Office of Natural Resources Revenue.
2 Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) responsible for managing
development in an environmentally and economically responsible way.
3 Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement(BSEE) created to
enforce safety and environmental regulations.
g These actions separated revenue generation from environmental regulation.
There were also substantial additional environmental regulations adopted for
offshore and gas development. Additional regulations were also recently
proposed by the Obama Administration.

Below are the Natural Processes of Mitigation:
Natural Processes of Mitigation
All and gas development will be at least 50 miles
offshore.
The cold dense southward flowing Labrador current is
thought to act as a partial barrier to spills coming
ashore.
The northeastward flowing Gulfstream is adjacent to
the oil and natural gas development area and could
sweep spills away.

9 much as 3.25 billion cubic feet of natural gas may be located off the coast of Virginia;
10 and
11
12 WHEREAS, the Department of Interior is in the process of considering the
13 leasing of Block 220 off the coast of Virginia for offshore oil and gas exploration; and
14
15 WHEREAS, there are several bills in the General Assembly of Virginia promoting
16 the exploration and possible production of oil and gas from those fields; and
17
8 WHEREAS, the development of an offshore oil and gas industry would create
19 thousands of jobs in Hampton Roads and produce hundreds of millions of dollars worth
20 of revenue to the Commonwealth and local governments. if the Federal Royalty Law was
21 amended to allow not only Gulf and Pacific states but also Atlantic Coast states like
22 Virginia to receive offshore royalties; and
23
24 WHEREAS, the Mayor created the Alternative Energy Task Force to look at
25 energy needs of Virginia Beach and the Commonwealth; and
26
27 WHEREAS, the Alternative Energy Task Force has identified U.S.-produced oil
28 and gas as bridge sources until alternative sources such as wind become more mature
29 and usable; and
30
31 WHEREAS, it is believed that this oil and natural gas exploration can be done in
32 an environmentally sound manner; and
33
34 WHEREAS, there are many alternative uses for natural gas for energy
35 production, and natural gas is one of the cleanest sources of energy production.
36
37 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
38 VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINLA TH^.T:
.39
40 1. City Council endorses exploration for the development of oil and natural
41 gas off the coast of Virginia in Lease Block 220, which is more than 50 miles from the
42 coast of Virginia Beach; and
43
44 2. City Council endorses this development because of the need to create
45 more American -controlled energy resources; and
46
47 3. It is the sense of Council that oil and natural gas should be developed as a
48 bridge until other alternative energy sources such as wind and biodiesel are developed.
49
50 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT:
51
52 1. City Council requests that Congress amend the legislation concerning
53 royalty payments to states where oil and natural gas exploration occurs so that Virginia
54 can receive royalties from this oil and natural gas development; and

304 Dirksen Senate Building 304 Dirksen Senate Building
Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510
Dear Chairman Murkowski and Ranking Member Cantwell,
We write to express our support for the inclusion of revenue sharing legislation in any
offshore energy access legislation that the Energy and Natural Resources Committee may
consider this Congress. As you know, the Mid- and South -Atlantic was included in the recently
released Draft Proposed 2017-2022 Five Year Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Leasing Program
(DPP). We strongly believe that offshore energy and revenue sharing for coastal states go hand-
in-hand and that any legislation considered by the Committee should reflect that view.
Offshore energy exploration can be an opportunity to diversify the economy and create
jobs in the Mid- and South -Atlantic region, as well as a means to lessen our national reliance on
foreign sources of energy. The offshore industry has coexisted with the military and commercial
industries like fishing and tourism in other areas for many years, and we believe that oil and gas
development can take place on the Outer Continental Shelf alongside our shared efforts to
protect our waters and shoreline. In the Mid- and South -Atlantic as in the Gulf of Mexico. we all
agree on the principle that coastal states deserve a portion of the revenue from energy
production.
Bipartisan support for oil and gas development on the Atlantic OCS can be found at the
federal, state and local levels. Our states want the opportunity to create new jobs, generate new
revenue and make the United States more energy secure. As you work to develop energy
legislation in the 114"' Congress, we would appreciate the committee's consideration of revenue
sharing so that Mid- and South -Atlantic states are provided a fair revenue share alongside Gulf
Coast states.
We look forward to working with you as you look to shape future offshore energy policy.
Sincerely,
1#a,,k oC 4

In recent months, the issue of offshore drilling along the coast of Virginia has
come to the forefront of discussion within our community. After receiving
Board of Directors
numerous inquiries as to the VBHA's position on offshore drilling, our
James Capps
association educated ourselves on the pros and cons of the issue. We engaged

the expertise of numerous elected officials, businessmen, lawyers,

environmentalists and our own membership in pursuit of clarity on this

contentious matter.

search for understanding focused chiefly on the benefit or harm that offshore

The Oceanfront Inn
Executive Director Our decision was not reached lightly, as we understand the need to diversify our
state's economy. Although diversification of our economy is of great
Diana H. Burke importance, we cannot in good conscious support a potential industry if it in any
Executive Office Manager
way compromises the well-being of an already proven industry. The potential
for environmental catastrophe, however slight, is far too great a liability to
Deborah G. Buringa assume on such a beautiful asset we take for granted every day. Instead, our
board is focused on promoting year-round visitation to our resort city, and
supports all efforts to achieve that both successfully and safely.
While we presently stand in opposition to offshore drilling, we absolutely continue to advocate for
the further research and clearer facts on the matter. Our primary cause of concern throughout our
due diligence has been the lack of cohesive, substantive, and unbiased information. The facts are
simply not clear on the matter. We feel it is in the best interest of all to slow down and re-examine
this issue. We also hope that progress will be made in addressing the concerns of coastal
communities like ours, who currently inherit much of the risk without any clear benefits. If
progress can be made to address this underlying issue, as well as the ability for states and local
communities to receive just compensation for this increased risk, we are more than willing to
revisit our position. In the meantime, we urge any interested parties to reach out, further educate
our association, and provide us with more substantive data and facts.
Sincerely,

RE: Scoping Comments for the 2017-2022 Proposed Oil and Gas Leasing Program Programmatic EIS
Dear President Obama and Secretary Jewell;
As board members of the irrginia Beach Restaurant Association-(iBRA), we have recently voted to appose the 2017-
2022 BOEM, offshore oil and Gas Leasing Program for the Mid -Atlantic Coast, which includes the Commonwealth of
Virginia.
We did not take this decision lightly. We sincerely want what is best for our community, our state and nation. At this
point, however, we feet there are too many unanswered questions related to this proposal. The VBRA is composed of a
diverse group of restaurants and food retail establishments who contribute to our local economy and tax base, so we
consider this a vital issue to our economic welfare.
For over'a century, tourism and tourism -related business in Virginia Beach - including restaurants, lodging, recreational
activities among others - are not only a primary part of our city's tax base and business foundation, they are emblematic
of Virginia Beach. There are many important parts to our local economy, but tourism is without question our most
important part. It has grown from a seasonal industry of quaint Oceanside cottages and salt water taffy to one that is
active 365 days a year. Virginia'sbeaches account for almost 10 percent of our state's tourists, and restaurant sales in
Virginia Beach have exceeded more than $1 billion for the past two years.
The successor failure of our industry depends on a number of factors, not all of them within our control. Going forward
with the BOEM program, as we understand it, could well be detrimental to our industry.
We concerned that if the program is approved, disasters like the Deepwater Horizon nil rig that exploded and killed
11 people in the Gulf of Mexico in April of 2010 could possibly occur here. More than 200million gallons of crude oil
were pumped into the Gulf of Mexico for a total of 87 days, making it the biggest oil spill in U.S. history. Over 16,000
total miles of coastline have been affected, including the coasts of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida.
Even though the gushing well was capped in July 2010, oil is stili washing up on shores, which will likely cause long-term
damages to people living in the area. This kind of disaster would cripple our industry and economy.
Proponents of the proposed BOEM program point to the economic benefits of such a proposal. These "benefits" are not
clear to us and have not been made clear at any point since this proposal was revived this past year.
We understand that your administration created a $20 billion spill response fund for the Gulf disaster (we do not think
that it is economically prudent for this type of measure to be repeated for the mid-Atlantic region). We also know that
British Petroleum is responsible for close to $40 billion in fines, cleanup costs, and settlements as a result of the oil spill
in 2010, with an additional $16 billion due to the Clean Water Act. This is a major concern to us, and a warning of what
we could be dealing with in the future.

T o this day, the Gulf is stiff polluted with oil and materials used to combat and clean up the spill. When you add these
tweigh these economic costs?
costs together, you must ask: Do the economic gains from such a program ou
An often underplayed lesson we can also learn from the Gulf is the reality of smaller oil spills and environmental
disasters occurring on the coast every day. The risk of a big spill from miles offshore is great, but developing this
resource would bring certainty that the Virginia coast will be stained with smaller spills from oil tankers and storm -
damaged infrastructure and carved up with pipelines and refineries. The dirty industrialization of the coast required to
support the oil industry will be at odds with the strong existing tourism and fishing industries dependent on clean
beaches, water, and fisheries. We hope you understand the major concerns that our Coastal Virginia communities will
have to face because of the destructive transformation that is most likely to occur once the oil and gas industries make a
home off of our coast.
We do not mean to play the role of combatants on this issue - we welcome any information, facts or discussions that
you might have that would further enlighten us and put to rest the fears and concerns our members have on such a vital
issue. As we mentioned, however, our livelihoods and the success of our city and its economy rests squarely on tourism
and its collateral industries. The threats and concerns of such a program have initiated a great number of discussions
about this throughout our industry. from the Virginia Beach Restaurant Association board's perspective, the BOEM
proposal would not provide any benefits to our thriving and growing hospitality industry. it was also clear to the board
that the proposal presented potential significant harm to our environment.
We share the concerns voiced by the United States Navy in feeling that this proposal would not be beneficial to our
community. We believe that this is true not only because of the potential negative financial impact that could result,
but also for the well-being of our customers and the future of our families.
We respect your position in this matter, and we welcome any information you feel we should be aware of so that we
can inform our members.

Re: 2017-2022 BOEM Offshore Oil and Gas Leasing Program for the Mid -Atlantic Coast
including the Commonwealth of Virginia
Dear Mayor Sessoms and Council Members:
The Resort Advisory Commission at its May 6, 2015 meeting voted to oppose offshore oil
exploration as an energy resource option off the coast of Virginia. The Commission based the
decision on recently received presentations from Bob Matthias, Office of the City Manager who
discussed the potential economic impacts and Eileen Levandoski of the Sierra Club along with
Caroline Wood of OCEANA who discussed the potential environmental impacts. This was in
addition to a briefing by Delegate Frank Wagner in 2008 regarding offshore oil exploration
technology and resources. The Commission voted favorably for wind energy exploration in the
recent past.
Following opposition votes by the Virginia Beach Hotel Association and Virginia Beach
Restaurant Association, the Commission voted to oppose offshore oil exploration due to the
vulnerability of our coast and beaches to catastrophes that may adversely affect our tourism
industry for decades. We trust the City Council will re-evaluate their position on offshore energy
exploration in the very near future.

William D. Almond, FASLA

Mr. Young advised he moved to Virginia Beach the Summer prior to his 5"' grade year with his mom and
two younger sisters. Mr. Young graduated from Ocean Lakes Elementary School, Kemps Landing
Magnet School and in 2003 from Princess Anne High School. Currently, he and his wife reside in the
New York area, as she is enrolled in a Doctoral program at Columbia University. The plan is to return to
Virginia upon her graduation.
Mr. Young expressed his appreciation to be given the opportunity to speak. Back in May, he gave the
"Keynote" Address at the Mayor's Youth Leaders in Action 2015 Best All -Around Awards Ceremony.
That program is made possible by the Youth Opportunities Office, headed by Barbara Brinson. The
purpose of the Awards Ceremony is to recognize young people, businesses and other organizations
working to make Virginia Beach the great City it is. The message that day was the tremendous ability to
empower, inspire and make the community better. Tonight's message is somewhat different as he simply
wants to say, to the elected officials of the City, "Thank You ".
He feels not often people take the opportunity to pause and express gratitude to those individuals that
have nurtured and shaped them. Mr. Young, at a very young age, had the opportunity to become involved
in the Civic life of the City. This is one of the things that makes this City, as Mayor Sessoms likes to say,
"the Best in the World", and he feels that one of the best things done by the City is their investment in the
lives of young people. The Summer between Mr. Young's 7"' & e grade, he attended a Leadership
Workshop staffed by Virginia Beach City Public Schools Staff. The Keynote Speaker that year was the
Late Mayor Oberndorf. Mr. Young admitted he does not remember the entire speech because it was in
1998; however, he does remember her saying she was proud of the participants, what we did in our
Schools and in the City mattered and that we were making differences in our community. Her speech
made him feel proud and helped put him on the path to be successful. He applied for and was accepted to
the Mayor's Leadership Council for Young People. He was elected the Inaugural President of Youth's
Leaders in Action, which was twenty-five (25) ethnically, geographically, economically diverse students
picked from all over the City, in an effort to create one group of kids that could speak for the interest of
young people in the City.
Personally, Mr. Young's family lived from "paycheck to paycheck" and when things go bad, they go bad
very quickly. His mother and step father divorced and he, at times, felt very alone during the more
difficult years. He truly feels his involvement in the Community allowed him to get thru those years and
was actually a "lifeline" to him. Mr. Young won a Jefferson Scholarship to attend the University of
Virginia and then a full Scholarship to Yale Law School at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government
and that all began here in this City Council Chamber. Mr. Young urges City Council to continue to
support the Civic Engagement with young people. Mr. Young finished by saying "Thank You" to the City
Council and he expressed how grateful he is to have grown up in the City of Virginia Beach.

c. LZ Grace Warrior Retreat Foundation
Lynette Bukowski, Phone: 754-3220, Founder and CEO of Landing Zone "LZ" Grace Warrior Retreat
Foundation. She advised this is a "Mission of the Heart" and not a Rehabilitation Center or Mental
Health facility, it is actually not a facility at all. This is a family farm ran by people who intimately know
the challenges Combat Veterans and their families face. The idea came from her late husband, who
served as a Navy SEAL for 32 years. He passed away in 2010 and unfortunately did not get to see his
dream come to fruition. The property was purchased with the intent of running it as family farm and
inviting Special Warfare Operations Veterans to find respite for however long they may need. It is more
about setting around a table and sharing meals, fellowships around afire -pit and other outdoor activities
amongst "brothers ". There are so many divorces and suicides within the Naval Special Warfare
community so this is a wonderful way for the City to assist and support those individuals. Not one of the
activities that would be held threatens or causes any threat to ARP Program. The property is a farm and
will always remain a farm.

P.O. Box 94529 North Little Rock AR 72190
January 28, 2015
I have reviewed the documentation, soil sample and wall geometry supplied by Chesapeake
Lawn & Garden Inc. dated January 21, 2015 for the referenced project sent to my office. Based
on this information, the maximum exposed wall height of 5.5 feet (plus cap) and total wall height
of 6.66 feet should be constructed with the geogrid layout for a 30° soil, Case A of the
"Standardized Engineering & Construction for 8 Feet and Under Retaining Walls" by HTS
Hardscape Technical Services. Anchor Diamond Pro block with SRW 3 Series geogrid must be
used as shown on the table. These tables must be followed for the gcogrid placement, lengths and
elevations. The retaining wall must also be built in accordance with the installation construction
shown in Section 3 of the Guide and other items in the Guide including any fences behind the
walls.
I appreciate this opportunity to be of service to you. Should you have any questions regarding
this design, placement or construction of any materials, please do not hesitate to contact me at
your convenience.

PLANNING ITEM #65129
Larry King, 2704 Bending Birch Trail, Phone: 468-5459, advised Victoria Park Neighborhood was a
good partner with the City and Schools during the construction of Kellam High School. The School is
adjacent to the neighborhood, separated by a fence -line. The neighborhood is small with only one
access point in and out of the neighborhood. As a member of the Board, he was asked to come speak
tonight regarding a piece of common area on the property. Prior to the construction of Kellam High
School, the property was given to the City in order to construct a "street" between the School and the
neighborhood. The neighborhood maintains the property with their current landscaping contract
although it is the City's property. The reason for the request is people from outside the neighborhood are
loitering in the common area and the neighborhood has no recourse. The loitering is affecting the safety
and security of the neighborhood.
