Onshore Oil and Gas Operations, Federal and Indian Oil and Gas Leases; Onshore Oil and Gas Order No. 5, Measurement of Gas

概要

This proposed rule would revise Onshore Oil and Gas Order No. 5 under 43 CFR 3164.1, originally issued February 24, 1989 (54 FR 8100), and made effective March 27, 1989, for new facilities, August 23, 1989, for existing facilities measuring 200 thousand cubic feet (Mcf) or more per day of gas, and February 26, 1990, for existing facilities producing less than 200 Mcf per day of gas. This proposed revision would reorganize the Order to make it more logical in sequence, remove unnecessary provisions, resolve internal inconsistencies discovered in the Order, and clarify certain provisions. These changes are based on several years of experience implementing the Order, and on suggestions from the public.
