ACTION: Notice of major portion prices
for calendar year 2009.
AGENCY:
Final regulations for valuing
gas produced from Indian leases,
published August 10, 1999, require the
Office of Natural Resources Revenue
(ONRR) to determine major portion
prices and notify industry by publishing
the prices in the Federal Register. The
regulations also require ONRR to
publish a due date for industry to pay
additional royalties based on the major
portion prices. This notice provides
major portion prices for the 12 months
of calendar year 2009.
DATES: The due date to pay additional
royalties based on the major portion
prices is May 10, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August
10, 1999, Minerals Management Service
(now Office of Natural Resources
Revenue) published a final rule titled
‘‘Amendments to Gas Valuation
Regulations for Indian Leases’’ (64 FR
43506). The gas valuation regulations
apply to all gas production from Indian
(tribal or allotted) oil and gas leases,
except leases on the Osage Indian
Reservation.
The regulations require ONRR to
publish major portion prices for each
designated area not associated with an
index zone for each production month,
beginning January 2000, and a due date
for additional royalty payments. See 30
CFR 1206.174(a)(4)(ii) (2010). (Note that
ONRR regulations were moved from 30
CFR, chapter II, to 30 CFR, chapter XII
(75 FR 61051), effective October 1,
2010.)
If additional royalties are due based
on a published major portion price, the
lessee must submit an amended Form
MMS–2014, Report of Sales and Royalty
Remittance, to ONRR by the due date.
If you do not pay the additional
royalties by the due date, ONRR will bill
you late payment interest under 30 CFR
1218.54. The interest will accrue from
the due date until ONRR receives your
payment and an amended Form MMS–
2014. The table below lists the major
portion prices for all designated areas
not associated with an index zone. The
due date is 60 days after the publication
date of this notice.
