Utah; Proposed Reinstatement of Terminated Oil and Gas Lease

April 13, 1998.

In accordance with Title IV of the Federal Oil and Gas Royalty Management Act (P.L. 97-451), a petition for reinstatement of oil and gas lease UTU-69025 for lands in Uintah County, Utah, was timely filed and required rentals accruing from May 1, 1997, the date of termination, have been paid.

The lessee has agreed to new lease terms for rentals and royalties at rates of $10 per acre and 16\2/3\ percent, respectively. The $500 administrative fee has been paid and the lessee has reimbursed the Bureau of Land Management for the cost of publishing this notice.

Having met all the requirements for reinstatement of the lease as set out in Section 31 (d) and (e) of the Mineral Leasing Act of 1920 (30 U.S.C. 188), the Bureau of Land Management is proposing to reinstate lease UTU-69025, effective May 1, 1997, subject to the original terms and conditions of the lease and the increased rental and royalty rates cited above. Robert Lopez, Group Leader, Minerals Adjudication Group.
