The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is proposing a rule to change how royalties are calculated for oil and gas lost from federal and Indian leases. This proposal is in response to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and aims to reduce compliance burdens for operators. The changes are set to take effect on June 24, 2026.
The proposed rule could reduce the costs and complexities for oil and gas operators, making it easier for them to comply with regulations. This may encourage more efficient energy production on federal and Indian lands.
