BLM to open 204,172 acres to oil exploration

 The Bureau of Land Management will offer 109 parcels, totaling approximately 204,172 acres in the West Desert, Color Country and Green River Districts at its September quarterly oil and gas lease sale. The BLM will hold the lease sale online at www.energynet.com.
“BLM continues to support a balanced approach to energy exploration and working landscapes on public lands,” said Kent Hoffman, Deputy State Director for Lands and Minerals. “We carefully considered comments from the public and our partners in developing the list of parcels.”
