Offsets, Recoupments and Refunds of Excess Payments of Royalties, Rentals, Bonuses, or Other Amounts Under Federal Offshore Mineral Leases

Краткое содержание

The Royalty Management Program of the Minerals Management Service (MMS) is amending its regulations establishing procedures for obtaining refunds and credits of excess payments made under Federal mineral leases on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) which are subject to section 10 of the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act of 1953 (OCSLA section 10). The rules also describe the circumstances in which a person may recover certain payments that are not subject to section 10's requirements.
