SUMMARY: Pursuant to the provisions of 30 U.S.C. 188(d) and (e), and 43 
CFR 3108.2-3(a) and (b)(1), a petition for reinstatement of oil and gas

lease as set out in Section 31 (d) and (e) of the Mineral Leasing Act 
of 1920 (30 U.S.C. 188), and the Bureau of Land Management is proposing 
to reinstate lease WAOR55142 effective July 1, 2001, subject to the 
original terms and conditions of the lease and the increased rental and 
royalty rates cited above.
