States’ Decisions on Participating in 

Accounting and Auditing Relief for 

Federal Oil and Gas Marginal 

Properties 

AGENCY: Office of Natural Resources 

Revenue (ONRR), Interior. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: Final regulations that ONRR 

published on September 13, 2004 (69 FR 

55076), provide two types of accounting 

and auditing relief for Federal onshore 

or Outer Continental Shelf lease 

production from marginal properties. As 

the regulations require, ONRR provided 

a list of qualifying marginal Federal oil 

and gas properties to States that 

received a portion of Federal royalties. 

Each State then decided whether to 

participate in one or both relief options. 

For calendar year 2015, we provide in 

this notice the affected States’ decisions 

to allow one or both types of relief. 

DATES: Effective January 1, 2015. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Maroya Faied, Economic and Market 

Analysis office, at (303) 231–3744; or 

email at maraya.faied@onrr.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

regulations, codified at 30 CFR part 

1204, subpart C, implement certain 

provisions of section 7 of the Federal 

Oil and Gas Royalty Simplification and 

Fairness Act of 1996 (RSFA) (30 U.S.C. 

1726), which allows States to relieve the 

lessees of marginal properties from 

certain reporting, accounting, and 

auditing requirements. States make an 

annual determination of whether or not 

to allow relief. Two options for relief are 

provided: (1) Notification-based relief 

for annual reporting and (2) other 

requested relief, as industry proposed 

and ONRR and the affected State 

approved. The regulations require 

ONRR to publish by December 1 of each 

year a list of the States and their 

decisions regarding marginal property 

relief. 

To qualify for the first relief option 

(notification-based relief) for calendar 

year 2015, properties must produce less 

than 1,000 barrels-of-oil-equivalent 

(BOE) per year for the base period (July 

1, 2013, through June 30, 2014). Annual 

reporting relief will begin January 1, 

2015, with the annual report and 

payment due February 28, 2016, or 

March 31, 2016, if you have an 

estimated payment on file. To qualify 

for the second relief option (other 

requested relief), the combined 

equivalent production of the marginal 

properties during the base period must 

equal an average daily well production 

of less than 15 BOE per well, per day 

calculated under 30 CFR 1204.4(c). 

The following table shows the States 

that have qualifying marginal properties 

and the States’ decisions to allow one or 

both forms of relief.

Federal oil and gas properties located 

in all other States where ONRR does not 

share a portion of Federal royalties with 

the State are eligible for relief if they 

qualify as marginal under the 

regulations (See section 117(c) of RSFA 

(30 U.S.C. 1726(c))). For information on 

how to obtain relief, please refer to 30 

CFR 1204.205 or to the published rule, 

which you may view at www.onrr.gov/ 

Laws_R_D/FRNotices/AC30.htm.

(FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552 et seq.). If 

applicable, please highlight the 

proprietary portions, including any
