California Lands Leases Seen Mocking Revenue Rules
State lands leases for tidelands are judged arbitrary by Auditor General Harvey Rose. The audit urges basing rents on barrels of oil produced rather than appraised land value, citing a Long Beach Atlantic Richfield deal and a Standard Oil of California lease as examples of low payments. The review covers 24 of 27 tidelands leases totaling 1,316 acres yielding about $198,546 annually.
