Summary
H.R. 6009 would direct the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to withdraw the proposed rule, “Fluid Mineral Leases and Leasing Process,” as published in the Federal Register in July 2023. The bill also would prohibit BLM from implementing any substantially similar rule. The proposed rule would restate in regulation provisions of the 2022 reconciliation legislation (Public Law 117-169) that established a fee for expressions of interest and adjusted royalty rates, rental rates, and minimum bids for BLM-issued oil and gas leases. Because those requirements would not be affected by the bill, CBO estimates that withdrawing the proposed rule would not affect those statutory fees and rates.
