BILLING CODE 4312-52-P DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Office of Natural Resources Revenue [Docket No. ONRR-2011-0012; DS63644000 DRT000000.CH7000 234D1113RT] Major Portion Prices and Due Date for Additional Royalty Payments on Gas Produced From Indian Lands in Designated Areas That Are Not Associated With an Index Zone AGENCY: Office of Natural Resources Revenue (ONRR), Interior. ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: In accordance with regulations governing valuation of gas produced from Indian lands, ONRR is publishing this Notice in the **Federal Register** of the major portion prices applicable to calendar year 2021 and the date by which a lessee must pay any additional royalties due under major portion pricing.
DATES: The due date to pay additional royalties based on the major portion prices is June 30, 2023. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For questions regarding major portion prices, contact Robert Sudar, Market & Spatial Analytics, by telephone at
(303)231-3511 or email to *Robert.Sudar@onrr.gov* . For questions on *Reporting Information,* contact April Lockler, Data Intake, Solutioning, and Coordination, by telephone at
(303)231-3105 or email to *April.Lockler@onrr.gov* . SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to 30 CFR 1206.174(a)(4)(ii), ONRR must publish major portion prices for each designated area that is not associated with an index zone for each production month, as well as the due date to submit any additional royalty payments. If a lessee owes additional royalties, it must submit an amended form ONRR-2014, Report of Sales and Royalty Remittance, to ONRR and pay the additional royalties due by the due date. If a lessee fails to timely pay the additional royalties, late payment interest begins to accrue pursuant to 30 CFR 1218.54. The interest will accrue from the due date until ONRR receives payment.
