§203.52. What criteria must I meet to get relief?
30 C.F.R. § 203.52
To qualify for relief, you must demonstrate that the sum of royalty payments over the 12 qualifying months exceeds 75 percent of the sum of net revenues (before-royalty revenues minus allowable costs, as defined in § 203.84).
To re-qualify for relief, e.g., either applying for additional relief on top of relief already granted, or applying for relief sometime after your earlier agreement terminated, you must demonstrate that:
You have met the criterion listed in paragraph (a) of this section, and
The 12 required qualifying months of operation have occurred under the current royalty arrangement.
