Notice.
SUMMARY: Under the provisions of
section 371(a) of the Energy Policy Act
of 2005, the lessee, Charles A. Einarsen,
timely filed a petition for reinstatement
of competitive oil and gas lease
WYW153586 in Natrona County,
Wyoming. The lessee paid the required
rental accruing from the date of
termination, September 1, 2002, and
submitted a signed agreement,
specifying future rental and royalty rates
for this lease would be at $10.00 per
acre or fraction of an acre and 162⁄3
percent respectively. In accordance with
43 CFR 3103.4–1 and 43 CFR 3108.2–
3(f) the lessee petitioned to reduce the
rental and royalty rates for the subject
lease to the rates specified in sections 1
and 2 of the original lease agreement
and submitted justification and
rationalization for the request. After
thoroughly reviewing the lessee’s
petition and taking into consideration
the information submitted, we have
granted the request to reduce the rental
rates to those in Section 1 of the original
lease agreement but have denied the
request for a reduced royalty rate. The
purpose of granting a reduced royalty
rate is to extend the productive life of
an existing well. Normally it cannot be
determined whether a lease can be
successfully operated at the higher
royalty rate required for reinstated
leases until the lease has been fully
developed. Because the productivity of
the leasehold has not been fully
PO 00000
determined, the request for a reduced
royalty rate is premature.
No leases were issued that affect these
lands. The lessee had paid the required
$500 administrative fee for lease
reinstatement and $166 cost for
publishing this Notice.
The lessee has met all the
requirements for reinstatement of the
lease per Sec. 31(e) of the Mineral
Leasing Act of 1920 (30 U.S.C. 188(e)).
We are proposing to reinstate the lease,
effective the date of termination subject
to:
• The original terms and conditions
of the lease;
• The rental rates specified in section
1 of the original lease agreement; and
• The increased royalty of 162⁄3
percent or 4 percentages above the
existing competitive royalty rate.
