Coastal states, like Florida, can opt-out of drilling off their shore? The St. Peterburg Times has the excerpt from the report up on their Buzz blog:

“Mindful of the accident in the Gulf, we institute important new protections for coastal states by allowing them to opt-out of drilling up to 75 miles from their shores,” reads a draft obtained by the St. Petersburg Times. “In addition, directly impacted states can veto drilling plans if they stand to suffer significant adverse impacts in the event of an accident. States that do pursue drilling will receive 37.5 percent of revenues to help protect their coastlines and coastal ecosystems.
