Odyssey Marine Exploration Inc. has announced that the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), part of the U.S. Department of the Interior, has initiated a formal review process for the company's unsolicited request for a potential marine mineral lease sale in federal waters offshore Virginia. This regulatory review is a key step toward evaluating the mineral potential of the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf. Odyssey is collaborating with Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Corporation to provide dredging services if the project advances. The next stage in the process will be BOEM's publication of a Request for Information and Interest $(RFI)$ in the Federal Register to gather stakeholder input.
