Workshops on Proposed Rule--Establishing Oil Value for Royalty
Due on Federal Leases
AGENCY: Minerals Management Service, Interior.
ACTION: Notice of extended workshops.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Minerals Management Service is extending the April 6,
1999, Federal oil royalty valuation workshop (Workshop 3). On March 12,
1999 (64 FR 12267), MMS announced it would reopen the comment period
and hold three workshops to discuss unresolved issues pertaining to the
proposed Federal oil valuation rule. The workshops were scheduled in
Houston, Texas, March 24; Albuquerque, New Mexico, March 25; and
Washington, D.C., April 6. Based on the various proposals and questions
that surfaced during the Houston and Albuquerque workshops, the
workshop participants agreed that additional time would be needed to
resolve those questions and evaluate the proposals. Therefore, MMS is
extending the workshop in Washington, D.C., to 2 days.
DATES: April 6-7, 1999, beginning at 9 a.m. and ending 5 p.m. Eastern
time.
ADDRESSES: Workshop 3 will be held at the Main Interior Building, 1849
C Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20240 (large buffet room adjacent to
the cafeteria in the basement). Phone: (202) 208-3512.
