The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) New Mexico State Office is rescheduling the January 22, 2014, Oil and Gas Lease Sale to February 26, 2014. This sale could not occur originally on the scheduled date because the Federal Government Shutdown prevented the timely publication of the Oil and Gas Lease Sale Notice. The lease sale notice with parcels and acreages will be available on November 25, 2013. The notice also initiates the protest period.The lease sale notice information can be found at: http://www.blm.gov/nm/st/en/prog/energy/oil_and_gas/lease_sale_notices.html
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land located primarily in 12 western states, including Alaska, on behalf of the American people. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. Our mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of America’s public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.
