Oil and Gas; Well Stimulation,

Bureau of Land Management,
Interior.
ACTION: Proposed rule; extension of
comment period.
AGENCY:

On May 11, 2012, the Bureau
of Land Management (BLM) published
in the Federal Register a proposed rule
to regulate hydraulic fracturing on
public land and Indian land. The rule
would require disclosure to the public
of chemicals used in hydraulic
fracturing on public land and Indian
land, strengthen regulations related to
well-bore integrity, and address issues
related to flowback water. This rule is
necessary to provide useful information
to the public and to help ensure that
hydraulic fracturing is conducted in a
way that adequately protects the
environment.
Due to the complexity of the rule and
the issues surrounding it, the BLM is
extending the comment period for 60
days beyond the end of the initial
comment period. As a result of this
extension, the comment period will now
close on September 10, 2012.
DATES: The comment period for the
proposed rule published May 11, 2012,
at 77 FR 27691, is extended. Send your
comments on this proposed rule to the
BLM on or before September 10, 2012.

Background
The proposed rule was published on
May 11, 2012 (77 FR 27691), with a 60day comment period closing on July 10,
2012. Since publication, the BLM has
received numerous requests for
extension of the comment period on the
proposed rule. Because of the
complexity of the rule and due to the
controversial nature of well stimulation
procedures, the BLM is hereby
extending the comment period on the
rule for 60 days. The closing date of the
extended comment period is September
10, 2012.
Dated: June 20, 2012.
