Federal Oil, Gas, and Coal Amendments

Built by the Tribune's code from the Federal Register. No AI wrote this page. Published in the Federal Register June 30, 2026. Document 2026-13133. Updated Nov. 9, 2026.

What it does

Consistent with Executive and Secretary's orders, ONRR proposes to amend ONRR's Federal oil, gas, and coal valuation regulations and to specify the standard of review for Director-level appeals. This rulemaking also proposes changes that will likely reduce cost and burden to industry and the Federal Government by simplifying regulatory requirements and ultimately incentivize production to unleash energy dominance. ONRR solicits comments on all aspects of this proposed action.
