43 CFR 3206.15: How will BLM charge acreage holdings if the United States owns only a fractional interest in the geothermal resources in a lease?
Where this section sits in the code
- Title 43—Public Lands: Interior
- Subtitle B—Regulations Relating to Public Lands
- CHAPTER II—BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT, DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
- SUBCHAPTER C—MINERALS MANAGEMENT (3000)
- PART 3200—GEOTHERMAL RESOURCE LEASING
- Subpart 3206—Lease Issuance
Where the United States owns only a fractional interest in the geothermal resources of the lands in a lease, BLM will only charge you with the part owned by the United States as acreage holdings. For example, if you own 100 percent of record title in a 100 acre lease, and the United States owns 50 percent of the mineral estate, you are charged with 50 acres.
