Description (excerpt):
As per your request, we have examined the impact of a proposal that would require that companies drilling new wells for the extraction of petroleum products on federal lands face a plethora of new rules. The proposed regulation is being promulgated by the US Department of Interior’s Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and as currently written, would apply only to federal wells on or impacting Federal and Indian lands, or split estate lands. However, this definition is remarkably broad and could potentially be applied to companies drilling on private lands in the western states.
