SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice is published in accordance with
section 9(a)(2) of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act of 1972 (Pub. L. 92–463,
as amended). The certification of
renewal is published below.
Certification Statement: I hereby
certify that the renewal of the Gateway
National Recreation Area Fort Hancock
21st Century Advisory Committee is
necessary and in the public interest in
connection with the performance of
duties imposed on the Department of
the Interior by the National Park Service
Organic Act (54 U.S.C. 100101(a) et
seq.), and other statutes relating to the
administration of the National Park
Service.
In accordance with Office of
Natural Resources Revenue (ONRR)
regulations, ONRR provides two types
of accounting and auditing relief for
Federal oil and gas production from
marginal properties: (1) the cumulative
royalty reports and payments relief
option, which allows a lessee or
designee to submit one royalty report
and payment for the calendar year’s
production; and (2) other requested
relief, which allows a lessee or designee
to request any type of accounting and
auditing relief that is appropriate for
production from the marginal property
and meets certain requirements. By
October 1 of each calendar year, ONRR
provides a list of qualifying marginal

Federal oil and gas properties to the
States receiving a portion of Federal
royalties from those properties. Each
State then decides whether to
participate in neither, one, or both relief
options. This Notice provides the public
each State’s decision on whether to
participate in marginal property relief.
DATES: Applicable January 1, 2023.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.
Robert Sudar, Market and Spatial
Analytics, Research, Enforcement,
Guidance, and Appeals Division, ONRR,
at (303) 231–3511; or by email to
Robert.Sudar@onrr.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to the Federal Oil and Gas Royalty
Simplification and Fairness Act of 1996
(30 U.S.C. 1726) and 30 CFR part 1204,
subpart C, ONRR and States can relieve
the lessee of a marginal Federal oil and
gas property from certain reporting,
accounting, and auditing requirements.
ONRR’s rules under 30 CFR 1204.202
and 1204.203 authorize two relief
options: (1) cumulative royalty reports
and payments relief option, which
allows a lessee or designee to submit
one royalty report and payment during
a calendar year; and (2) other requested
relief, which allows a lessee or designee
to request any type of appropriate
marginal property accounting and
auditing relief that meets the
requirements under § 1204.5 and is not
prohibited under § 1204.204.
To qualify for the first relief option,
cumulative royalty reports and
payments relief option, properties must
produce less than 1,000 barrels-of-oilequivalent (BOE) per year for the base
period (July 1, 2021 through June 30,
2022). Annual reporting relief will begin
January 1, 2023, with the annual report
and payment due February 29, 2024. If
a lessee has an estimated payment on
file, the payment due date is March 31,
2024. To qualify for the second relief
option, other requested relief, the
combined equivalent production of the
marginal properties during the base
period must equal an average daily well
production of less than 15 BOE per well
per day, as calculated under 30 CFR
1204.4(c).
Each State makes an annual
determination as to whether it will
participate in neither, one, or both relief
options. This Notice fulfills the
requirement in ONRR’s rules to publish
a notice of the State’s ‘‘intent to allow
or not allow certain relief options . . .
in the Federal Register no later than 30
days before the beginning of the
applicable calendar year.’’ See 30 CFR
1204.208(f).

with qualifying marginal properties and
