Energy Policy and Conservation Act

SEC. 604. SCIENTIFIC INVENTORY OF OIL AND GAS RESERVES.

(a) IN GENERAL- The Secretary of the Interior, in consultation with the Secretaries of Agriculture and Energy, shall conduct an inventory of all onshore Federal lands. The inventory shall identify--

(1) the United States Geological Survey reserve estimates of the oil and gas resources underlying these lands;

andand

(2) the extent and nature of any restrictions or impediments to the development of such resources.

P ti l I l t ti f th Sti l tiPractical Implementation of the Stipulations

• Practical implementation of the stipulations will include – Consideration of the top three stipulations for which

exceptions/waivers/modifications are granted, e.g., • Years in which no raptor nests are found and exceptions are

granted for APDs

• Exceptions to steep slopes

– Consideration of directional drillingCo s de at o o d ect o a d g

– Review surface use COAs that are attached to randomly sampled APDs

NSO Extended Drilling Zone• To account for industry’s ability to reach subsurface targets by

directional drilling, use of an “extended drilling zone” of ¼ mile (or other appropriate distance) ( pp p )
