Due to perceived conflict of interest and poor regulatory oversight following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill and Inspector General investigations , Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar issued a secretarial order on May 19 , 2010 splitting MMS into three new federal agencies : the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management , the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement , and the Office of Natural Resources Revenue . MMS was temporarily renamed the '' ' Bureau of Ocean Energy Management , Regulation and Enforcement ' '' ( '' ' BOEMRE ' '' ) during this reorganization before being formally dissolved on October 1 , 2011
