AI Summary
This bill amends the Environmental Conservation Law to prohibit the New York Department of Environmental Conservation and the Office of General Services from issuing any new leases, renewals, extensions, or modifications that would authorize the exploration, development, or production of oil or natural gas in state-owned lands within the marine and coastal district. The bill defines key terms like "development," "exploration," "federal waters," and "production" to clarify the scope of the prohibition.
