Bill 119 s 451, also known as the Mineral Leasing Act Amendment, aims to make changes to the current Mineral Leasing Act by eliminating an administrative fee that is currently in place. The bill also includes provisions for other purposes related to mineral leasing on federal lands.

These provisions may include changes to the leasing process, regulations for environmental protection, or other aspects of mineral extraction on federal lands. Overall, Bill 119 s 451 is aimed at streamlining the process for companies to obtain mineral leases on federal lands by removing the administrative fee and making other necessary changes to the Mineral Leasing Act. The bill is currently under consideration in Congress and may undergo further revisions before being passed into law.
