Due to the receipt of a substantive comment on the direct final rule (DFR) rescinding portions of the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) regulations that address the Leasing of Solid Minerals Other Than Coal and Oil Shale, the Department of the Interior, through the BLM, is issuing a new final rule that responds to the comment.
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) proposes to revise its regulations governing site security and production handling and commingling applications to reflect Congress's direction in section 50101(d)(3) of the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" (OBBB) and policy direction in Executive Orders (E.O.s) entitled, Unleashing American Energy and Ensuring Lawful Governance and Implementing the President's "Department of Government Efficiency" Deregulatory Initiative and policy guidance in Secretary's Order (S.O.) 3418, entitled, Unleashing American Energy. The BLM is proposing to revise the regulations to allow for commingling of production more broadly to promote oil and gas production on Federal, Indian, private and State lands. Commingling of production can reduce an operator's cost which could extend the economic life of a well, thereby allowing the operator to continue producing from a well that might otherwise be abandoned.
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM, we) is issuing this direct final rule (DFR) to amend BLM regulations to extend the phase-in date for compliance with the minimum bond amount for Statewide oil and gas bonds.

This rule extends that deadline to June 22, 2027, aligning it with the phase-in date for individual lease bonds.
