State of Colorado; NGPA Amended Determination by Jurisdictional 
Agency Designating Tight Formation

February 28, 1994.
    Take notice that on February 24, 1994, the Colorado Oil and Gas 
Conservation Commission (Colorado) amended the notice of determination 
that was filed by the United States Department of Interior, Bureau of 
Land Management (BLM) in the above-referenced proceedings on September 
2, 1993, pursuant to Sec. 271.703(c)(3) of the Commission's 
regulations. The February 24, 1994 notice determined that a portion of 
the Corcoran-Cozzette Formation in Garfield County, Colorado, qualifies 
as a tight formation under section 107(b) of the Natural Gas Policy Act 
of 1978 (NGPA).
    The February 24, 1994, amended notice of determination reduces the 
geographical area recommended for a tight formation designation. The 
amended area now covers only 48,274.78 acres; 23,974.20 acres or 49.66% 
are owned in Fee, and 24,300.58 acres or 50.34% are Federal Lands 
described as follows:

Township 6 South, Range 99 West
Sections 1-36: All
Township 6 South, Range 100 West
Sections 1-3, 10-15, 22-27, and 34-36: All
Township 7 South, Range 99 West
Sections 1-18: All
Township 7 South, Range 100 West
Sections 1-3, and 10-15: All


    The notice of determination also contains Colorado's findings that 
the referenced portion of the Corcoran-Cozzette Formation meets the 
requirements of the Commission's regulations set forth in 18 CFR part 
271.
    The application for determination is available for inspection, 
except for material which is confidential under 18 CFR 275.206, at the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 825 North Capitol Street, NE., 
Washington DC 20426. Persons objecting to the determination may file a 
protest, in accordance with 18 CFR 275.203 and 275.204, within 20 days 
after the date this notice is issued by the Commission.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
