The Bureau of Land Management Wyoming is proposing 251,086 acres over 209 parcels in an upcoming oil and gas lease sale.
BLM Wyoming’s second quarter 2023 oil and gas lease sale will be conducted in accordance with measures required by the federal Inflation Reduction Act, which became law in August 2022.
Provisions in the Inflation Reduction Act will apply to the upcoming and future BLM oil and gas lease sales.
In accordance with the new law, minimum bids for all oil and gas parcels will be $10 per acre, an increase from the $2-per-acre minimum bid set in 1987, according to the BLM Wyoming.

Studio Sponsor: The Industrial Forest

Weekly Sponsor: Stephen Heins, The Practical Environmentalist
Historically, Heins has been a writer on subjects ranging from broadband and the US electricity grid, to environmental, energy and regulatory topics.
Heins is also a vocal advocate of the Internet of Everything, free trade, and global issues affecting the third of our planet that still lives in abject poverty.
Heins is troubled by the Carbon Tax, Cap & Trade, Carbon Offsets and Carbon Credits, because he questions their efficacy in solving the climate problem, are too gamable by rent seekers, and are fraught with unreliable accounting.
Heins worries that climate and other environmental reporting in the US and Europe has become too politicized, ignores the essential role carbon-based energy continues to play in the lives of billions, demonizes the promise and practicality of Nuclear Energy and cheerleads for renewable energy sources that cannot solve the real world problems of scarcity and poverty.
