| Summary: | Discusses U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana ruling in Kerr-McGee Oil & Gas Corp. v. Allred that rebuffed Department of Interior efforts to collect royalties from offshore oil and gas production leases based on so-called "price thresholds" for previously granted royalty relief. Provides background on Outer Continental Shelf Deep Water Royalty Relief Act, and considers impact of Kerr-McGee Oil & Gas Corp. v. Allred on proposed Royalty Relief for American Consumers Act of 2007 to ban Department of Interior from issuing new leases to holders of "covered leases" unless they renegotiate their "covered leases" to include price thresholds or pay a "conservation of resources" fee.
