DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
Minerals Management Service
States’ Decisions on Participating in
Accounting and Auditing Relief for
Federal Oil and Gas Marginal
Properties
AGENCY: Minerals Management Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice of states’ decisions to
participate or not participate in
accounting and auditing relief for
Federal oil and gas marginal properties
located in their state for calendar year
2009.
SUMMARY: The Minerals Management
Service (MMS) published final
regulations on September 13, 2004 (69
FR 55076), codified at 30 CFR 204.200
through 204.215, to provide accounting
and auditing relief for marginal Federal
oil and gas properties. The rule requires
MMS to publish in the Federal Register
the decisions of the states concerned to
allow or not allow one or both forms of
relief in their state. As required in the
rule, MMS provided states receiving a
portion of the Federal royalties with a
list of qualifying marginal Federal oil
and gas properties located in their state
so that each affected state could decide
whether to participate in one or both
relief options. This notice provides the
decisions by the states concerned to
allow one or both types of relief.
DATES: Effective January 1, 2009.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Mary Williams, Manager, Federal
Onshore Oil and Gas Compliance and
Asset Management, telephone (303)
231–3403, FAX (303) 231–3744, e-mail
to mary.williams@mms.gov, or mail to
P.O. Box 25165, MS 392B2, Denver
Federal Center, Denver, Colorado
80225–0165.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The rule
implemented certain provisions of
section 7 of the Federal Oil and Gas
Royalty Simplification and Fairness Act
of 1996 and provides two options for
relief: (1) Notification-based relief for
annual reporting, and (2) other
requested relief, as proposed by
industry and approved by MMS and the
state concerned. The rule requires that
MMS publish by December 1 of each
year, a list of the states and their
decisions regarding marginal property
relief.
To qualify for the first option of relief
(notification-based relief) for calendar
year 2009, properties must have
produced less than 1,000 barrels-of-oilequivalent (BOE) per year for the base
period (July 1, 2007, through June 30,
2008). Annual reporting relief will begin
on January 1, 2009, with the annual
report and payment due February 28,
2010; or March 31, 2010, if you have an
estimated payment on file. To qualify
for the second option of relief (other
requested relief), properties must have
produced less than 15 BOE per well per
day for the base period.
The following table shows the states
that have marginal properties, where a
portion of the royalties are shared
between the state and MMS, and the
states’ decisions to allow one or both
forms of relief.
