## Abstract

On April 10, 2024, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) published a final rule that aims to reduce the waste of natural gas from venting, flaring, and leaks during oil and gas production activities on Federal and Indian leases. This direct final rule corrects technical errors in that final rule, including revisions to equations for consistency with, or to better reflect, the regulatory text. It separately lists definitions of the variables for those equations for increased clarity. It also corrects typographical errors and makes minor re-arrangements of provisions for better clarity.
