    Section 161 of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (42 U.S.C.

    ``(k) Plan.--
            ``(1) In general.--Except in the case of a severe energy 
        supply interruption described in subsection (d), the Secretary 
        may not execute the first drawdown of petroleum products in the 
        Reserve after the date of enactment of this subsection, whether 
        through sale, exchange, or loan, until the Secretary has 
        developed and implemented a plan to increase the percentage of 
        Federal lands (including submerged lands of the Outer 
        Continental Shelf) under the jurisdiction of the Secretary of 
        Agriculture, the Secretary of Energy, the Secretary of the 
        Interior, and the Secretary of Defense leased for oil and gas 
        production by the same percentage as the percentage of 
        petroleum in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve that is to be 
        drawn down in that first and subsequent drawdowns, subject to 
        the limitation under paragraph (2).
            ``(2) Limitation.--The plan required by paragraph (1) shall 
        not provide for a total increase in the percentage of Federal 
        lands described in paragraph (1) leased for oil and gas 
        production in excess of 10 percent.
            ``(3) Consultation.--The Secretary shall prepare the plan 
        required by paragraph (1) in consultation with the Secretary of 
        Agriculture, the Secretary of the Interior, and the Secretary 
        of Defense.''.
