The FY2027 President's Budget requests $56.4M for Oil and Gas Permit Processing Improvement Fund, within Interior's Permanent Operating Funds account. That is up 1.8% on the FY2026 figure of $55.4M, which is the enacted appropriation.
FY2026–FY2027
| Fiscal year | Basis | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| FY2026 | enacted | $55.4M |
| FY2027 | request | $56.4M |
Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.
Interior discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Interior's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
A permanent fund financed by onshore mineral lease rents and drilling-permit fees that supports coordination and processing of oil and gas use authorizations, including applications for permits to drill.
Extracted from Bureau of Land Management, p. 205. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
Contracts funded by this line
6 linked contracts. These are obligations — lifetime awarded money — and they are not comparable to the request above and are never added to it. No total is shown: an award linked to several lines is counted in full on each, so the sum would not be a fact.

Linked contracts are a floor, not a census. Coverage is bounded by how distinctively a program is named and, for performer links, to RDT&E and Procurement — O&M and military construction publish no performers. Budget figures are FY2027 request dollars; contract figures are obligations. The two measure different things and must never be summed together.
