Utah; Proposed Reinstatement of Terminated Oil and Gas Leases

    In accordance with Title IV of the Federal Oil and Gas Royalty 
Management Act (Public Law 97-451), a petition for reinstatement of oil 
and gas leases UTU-76561 and UTU-77365 for lands in Duchesne and Emery 
Counties, Utah, was timely filed and required rentals accruing from 
September 1, 1999, the date of termination, have been paid.
    The lessee has agreed to new lease terms for rentals and royalties 
at rates of $5 per acre and 16\2/3\ percent, respectively. The $500 
administrative fee for each lease 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 leases 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 leases UTU-76561 and UTU-77365, effective September 1, 1999, 
subject to the original terms and conditions of the lease and the 
increased rental and royalty rates cited above.
