Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), the ranking Republican member on the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, has condemned the Department of the Interior’s Bureau of Land Management (BLM) for its failure to publish a public notice of onshore oil and gas lease sales for this quarter.

He said BLM’s continued inaction violates the federal Mineral Leasing Act (MLA).
