The BLM-Utah competitive oil and gas lease sale scheduled for Nov. 17, 2015, has been postponed to allow the time needed to better accommodate the high level of public interest in attending the sale. BLM-Utah expects to reschedule the sale in the near future. Once the details have been determined, they will be released through the media and posted on the BLM-Utah state home page, as well as the BLM-Utah oil and gas leasing webpage. BLM-Utah apologizes for the short notice of postponement.
