respectively. The lessee paid the required $500 administrative fee for 
lease reinstatement and the $151 cost of publishing this notice. The 
lessee met the requirements for reinstatement of the lease per Sec. 
31(d) and (e) of the Mineral Leasing Act of 1920 (30 U.S.C. 188). The 
BLM considered the impacts of reinstatement of the lease in

Finding of No Significant Impact. The BLM proposes to reinstate the 
lease effective February 1, 2013, under amended lease terms and the 
increased rental and royalty rates described above.
