Notice That the Tulsa District is Forming a Federal Spacing Unit 
for a Fractional Section on the Border Between Texas and Oklahoma in 
Beaver County, OK

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Public notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Pursuant to Bureau of Land Management Regulations (43 CFR 
parts 3160 and 3162) in accordance with the authority delegated by the 
Secretary of the Interior, this notice advises the public that the 
Tulsa District is forming a federal spacing unit for a fractional 
section on the border between Texas and Oklahoma in Beaver County, 
Oklahoma. The correlative rights of this mineral tract were not 
protected when spacing was established for the production of crude oil 
from the Upper Morrow Group, and for the production of natural gas from 
the Lower Morrow Group.
    The fractional section consists of 15.75 acres described as: All of 
Section 06, Township 1 South, Ranger 21 East, Cimarron Meridian, Beaver 
County, Oklahoma.
    This fractional section is in a rural area between 1.2 and 2.3 
miles west of where U.S. Highway 83 crosses into Oklahoma, four miles 
south of Gray, Oklahoma. This federal spacing unit will be for all 
formations, for both oil and gas, and with full allowables for any 
production with no restrictions based upon acreage. The property will 
be offered for lease through the New Mexico State Office, Bureau of 
Land Management later this year. There will be stipulations that the 
mineral tract is subject to drainage and that a protective well is 
required to be drilled within one year of the effective date of the 
lease.

DATES: Comments by interested parties regarding this decision will be 
accepted by the District Manager at the address below for thirty days 
following publication of this notice.
