•
•
•
•
The time and place of the sale;
How to participate in the bidding process;
The sale process;
The conditions of the sale;
How to file a noncompetitive offer after the sale; and
How to file a presale noncompetitive offer.
Attached to this notice is a list of the lands we are offering by parcel number and description. We have referenced any
special conditions or restrictions that will be made a part of the lease below each parcel.
When and where will the sale take place?
When:
The competitive oral sale will begin at 9:00 a.m. on Thursday, December 11, 2003. The
sale room will open one-half hour earlier so you can get your bidding number.
Where:
We will hold the sale in the Land Office at 333 SW First Ave., Portland, Oregon. There
is metered parking on the street and pay-to-park lots in the area. Public transportation is
an option.
Access:
The sale room is accessible to persons with disabilities. If you need an auxiliary aid or
service to participate in the sale, such as a sign language interpreter or materials in an
alternate format, contact Donna Kauffman at (503) 808-6162, by December 1, 2003.
How do I participate in the bidding process?
To participate in the bidding process, you must get a bidding number. You must display your bidding number to the
auctioneer when you submit a bid.

What is the sale process?
Starting at 9:00 a.m. on the day of the sale­
•
•
•
•
The auctioneer will offer the parcels in the order they are shown in the attached list;
All bids are on a per-acre basis for the entire acreage in the parcel;
The successful bid is the highest oral bid equal to or exceeding the minimum acceptable bid; and
The decision of the auctioneer is final.
The minimum bid BLM can accept is $2 per acre. If a parcel contains fractional acreage, round it up to the next whole
acre. For example, a parcel of 100.32 acres requires a minimum bid of $202
($2 x 101 acres). After we have offered all the parcels, you may ask the auctioneer to re-offer any unsold parcels.
UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
What conditions apply to the lease sale?
• Parcel withdrawal or sale cancellation: We reserve the right to withdraw any or all parcels before the sale
begins. If we withdraw a parcel, we will post a notice in the Oregon State Office Land Office (Public Room)
before the day of the sale. We will announce withdrawn parcels before beginning the sale. If we cancel the sale,
we will notify you as soon as possible.
• Payment due: You cannot withdraw a bid. Your bid is a legal binding commitment to sign the bid form,
accept the lease, and pay the money due on the day of the sale. You may pay immediately after the sale, or you
can pay within one hour after the close of the sale at our Land Office on the 1st floor of the State Office.
If you are the successful high bidder on a parcel, the money due the day of the sale is the minimum bid of $2
per acre, the first year’s rent ($1.50 per acre), and the administrative fee ($75). You may pay the total due the
day of the sale, or you may pay the balance of the bonus bid due by the close of business on December 26,
2003, which is the 10th working day following the sale. If you do not pay in full by this date, you lose the right
to the lease and all money paid on the day of the sale. If you forfeit a parcel, we may offer it at a later sale.
• Forms of payment: You can pay by personal check, certified check, money order, or credit card (VISA,
MasterCard, Discover, or American Express only). Make checks payable to: Department of the InteriorBLM. We cannot accept cash. If a check you have sent to us in the past has been returned for insufficient
funds, we may ask that you give us a guaranteed payment, such as a certified check. If you pay by credit card
and the transaction is refused, we will try to notify you early enough so that you can make other payment
arrangements. However, we cannot grant you any extension of time to pay the money that is due the day of the
sale.
3
• Bid form: On the day of the sale, if you are a successful bidder, you must give us a properly completed and
signed competitive bid form (Form 3000-2, July 1991, or later edition) with your payment. This form is a
legally binding offer by the prospective lessee to accept a lease and all its terms and conditions. Once the form
is signed, you cannot change it. We will not accept any bid form that has information crossed out or is
otherwise altered.
We recommend you get a copy of the bid form and complete all but the money part before the sale. You can fill
out the money part at the sale. Your completed bid form certifies that:
(1) You and the prospective lessee are qualified to hold an oil and gas lease under our regulations at 43 CFR
3102.5-2; and
(2) You have complied with 18 U.S.C. 1860, a law that prohibits unlawful combinations, intimidation of, and
collusion among bidders.
• Lease Issuance: After we receive the bid form and all the money due, we can issue the lease. Usually, a lease
is effective the first day of the month following the month in which we sign it. If you want your lease to be
effective the first day of the month in which we sign it, you must ask us in writing to do this. We have to
receive your request before we sign the lease.
• Lease terms: A lease issued as a result of this sale will have a primary term of 10 years. It will continue
beyond its primary term as long as oil or gas in paying quantities is produced on or for the benefit of the lease.
Rental at $1.50 per acre for the first 5 years ($2 per acre after that) is due on or before the anniversary date each
year until production begins. Once a lease is producing, you must pay a royalty of 12.5 percent on the
UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
production. You will find other lease terms on our standard lease form (Form 3100-11, October 1992 or later
edition).
• Stipulations: Some parcels have special requirements or restrictions which are called stipulations. These are
included with the parcel descriptions. Stipulations are part of the lease and supercede any inconsistent
provisions of the lease form.
How do I file a noncompetitive offer after the sale?
Lands that do not receive a bid are available on a first-come, first-served basis for a two-year period, beginning the
day after the sale. If you want to file a noncompetitive offer on an unsold parcel, you must give us­
• An Offer to Lease Form properly completed and signed. (Note: You may copy the lease form, but you must
copy both sides on one page. If you copy the form on 2 pages or use an obsolete lease form, we will reject
your offer. Any copy you make should be legible.) Describe the lands in your offer as specified in our
regulations at 43 CFR 3110.5, and;
• Your payment for the total of the $75 filing fee and the advanced first year’s rental ($1.50 per acre). Remember
to round up any fractional acreage when you calculate the amount of rental.
4
You may submit your offer the day of the sale after the sale is closed. However, we consider all offers filed the day
of a sale and the first business day after it, for any of the unsold parcels, filed at the same time. If a parcel receives
more than one offer, we will hold a drawing to pick the winner. A presale offer has priority over any offer filed
after the sale. There were no presale offers filed for the lands in this notice.
How do I file a noncompetitive presale offer?
Under our regulations at 43 CFR 3110.1(a), you may file a noncompetitive presale offer for lands that­
• Are available, and;
• Have not been under lease during the previous one-year period, or;
• Have not been included in a competitive lease sale within the previous two-year period.
If we do not receive a bid for the parcel that contains the lands in your offer, it has priority over any offer for that
parcel filed after the sale. Your presale offer is your consent to the terms and conditions of the lease, including any
additional stipulations. If you want to file a presale offer, follow the directions listed for filing a noncompetitive offer
after the sale.
How can I find out the results of this sale?
We will post the sale results in the Oregon State Office Land Office (Public Room), and on our website. You can buy
($5) a printed copy of the results list from the Land Office.
Who should I contact if I have a question?
For more information, please contact Donna Kauffman at (503) 808-6162.

Endangered Species Act Section 7 Consultation Stipulation
The lease area may now or hereafter contain plants, animals, or their habitats determined to be threatened, endangered, or other special status
species. BLM may recommend modifications to exploration and development proposals to further its conservation and management objective to
avoid BLM-approved activity that will contribute to a need to list such a species or their habitat. BLM may require modifications to or disapprove
proposed activity that is likely to result in jeopardy to the continued existence of a proposed or listed threatened or endangered species or result in
the destruction or adverse modification of a designated or proposed critical habitat. BLM will not approve any ground-disturbing activity that may
affect any such species or critical habitat until it completes its obligations under applicable requirements of the Endangered Species Act as
amended, 16 U.S.C. §1531 et seq., including completion of any required procedure for conference or consultation.

POWERSITE STIPULATION
The lessee or permittee hereby agrees:
(a) If any of the land covered by this lease or permit
was, on the date of the lease or permit application or
offer was filed, within a powersite classification,
powersite reserve, waterpower designation, or project
on which an application for a license or preliminary
permit is pending before the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission or on which an effective license or
preliminary permit had been issued by the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission under the Federal
Power Act, or on which an authorized power project
(other than one owned or operated by the Federal
Government) had been constructed, the United States,
its permittees or licensees shall have the prior right to
use such land for purposes of power development so
applied for, licensed, permitted, or authorized and no
compensation shall accrue to the mineral lessee or
permittee for loss of prospective profits or for damages
to improvements or workings, or for any additional
expense caused the mineral lessee as a result of the
taking of said land for power development purposes. It
is agreed, however, that where the mineral lessee or
permittee can make adjustments of his improvements to
avoid undue interference with power development, he
will be permitted to
do so at his own expense. Furthermore, occupancy and
use of the land by the mineral lessee or permittee shall
be subject to such reasonable conditions with respect to
the use of the land as may be prescribed by the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission for the protection of
any improvements and workings constructed thereon for
power development.
(b) If any of the land covered by this lease or permit is
on the date of the lease or permit within a powersite
classification, powersite reserve, or waterpower
designation which is not governed by the preceding
paragraph, the lease or permit is subject to the express
condition that operations under it shall be so conducted
as not to interfere with the administration and use of the
land for powersite purposes to a greater extent than may
be determined by the Secretary of the Interior to be
necessary for the most beneficial use of the land. In
any case, it is agreed that where the mineral lessee or
permittee can make adjustments to avoid undue
interference with power development, he will be
permitted to do so at his own expense.
