Abstract: Congress passed legislation
specifically addressing oil and gas
leasing on Osage lands and requiring
Secretarial approval of leases. See 34

beneficiaries. The information
collections in 25 CFR 226 are necessary
to ensure that the beneficial owners of
the mineral rights are provided the
royalties due them, ensure that the oil
and gas trust assets are protected, and to
ensure that the surface estate assets are
protected.
