Abstract
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM or "we") is issuing final regulations for the leasing of hydrocarbons, except coal, gilsonite and oil shale, in special tar sand areas. In this rule, BLM implements provisions of the Energy Policy Act of 2005. This final rule also makes technical corrections to the interim final regulations BLM issued in October 2005.
