All bidding and lease sale on BLM parcels listed on this website shall be subject to the statutes, administrative rules and regulations of the BLM per the authority of the Mineral Leasing Act of 1920 as amended and the Mineral Leasing Act for Acquired Lands of 1947, as amended.

Geothermal leases have a primary term of 10 years and subsequent extensions thereof in accordance with 43 CFR subpart 3207. Advance rental at $2.00 for the first year; $3.00 for the second through tenth year; thereafter $5.00 is due on or before the anniversary date each year until production begins. Royalty rates for geothermal resources produced for the commercial generation of electricity but not sold in an arm’s length transaction are: 1.75 percent for the first 10 years of production and 3.5 percent after the first 10 years. The royalty rate is to be applied to the gross proceeds derived from the sale of electricity in accordance with 30 CFR part 206 subpart H. You will find other lease terms on our standard lease form (Form 3200-24a, October 2008).

They are requirements or restrictions on how you conduct operations. They become part of the lease and supersede any inconsistent provisions in the lease form.
