Oil and Gas Site Security, Oil Measurement, and Gas Measurement Regulations

Краткое содержание

On November 17, 2016, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) published in the Federal Register three final rules dealing with onshore oil and gas measurement and site security. In accordance with Executive Order 13783, Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth (March 28, 2017), and Secretary's Order No. 3349, American Energy Independence, (March 29, 2017), the BLM reviewed the affected regulations to determine if certain provisions may have added regulatory burdens that unnecessarily encumber energy production, constrain economic growth, and prevent job creation. As a result of this review, and in light of implementation issues that have arisen, the BLM is now proposing to modify certain provisions to reduce unnecessary and burdensome regulatory requirements.
