A bill to amend section 37 of the Mineral Lands Leasing Act of 1920 relating to oil shale claims, and for other purposes.

Summary

Amends the Mineral Lands Leasing Act of 1920 to prohibit the issuance of patents for oil shale claims after February 5, 1987. Exempts from such prohibition those claims for which a patent application had been filed and all patent requirements had been fully complied with by such date. Directs the Secretary of the Interior to: (1) provide notice and a reasonable period of time to holders of non-exempt claims to convert such claims to oil shale leases; and (2) cancel any non-exempt claim that is not converted to a lease within a reasonable period.
