Lease OKNM 98653

    Under the provisions of Public Law 97-451, a petition for 
reinstatement of oil and gas lease OKNM 98653 for lands in Dewey 
County, Oklahoma, was timely filed and was accompanied by all required 
rentals and royalties accruing from June 1, 2001, the date of 
termination.
    No valid lease has been issued affecting the lands. The lessees 
have agreed to new lease terms for rentals and royalties at rates of 
$10.00 per acre or fraction thereof and 16\2/3\ percent, respectively. 
The lessees have paid the required $500.00 administrative fee and have 
reimbursed the Bureau of Land Management for the cost of this Federal 
Register notice.
    The Lessees have met all the requirements for reinstatement of the 
lease as set out in Sections 31(d) and (e) of the Mineral Leasing Act 
of 1920 (30 USC 188), and the Bureau of Land Management is proposing to 
reinstate the lease effective June 1, 2001, subject to the original 
terms and conditions of the lease and the increased rental and royalty 
rates cited above.
