Oil and Gas Leasing; Onshore Oil and Gas Operations

Короткий зміст

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is reopening the public comment period under a proposed rule published in the Federal Register on January 13, 1998, (63 FR 1936), concerning lessee responsibility for oil and gas drainage. BLM is reopening the comment period for 60 days in order to consult with Indian Tribes, pursuant to Executive Order 13084, on the issue of whether the proposed rule should apply to Tribal and individual Indian oil and gas leases. BLM seeks further public comments solely on the issue of the appropriateness of applying the proposed rule to Indian oil and gas leases.
