B. Charles Rogers Gas Ltd., a gas marketing company operating in New Mexico, together with its principals and an associated individual, have entered into a settlement agreement with the U.S. admitting that they made and used false records that under-reported the volume and value of natural gas they purchased from producers who had federal gas leases. This fraudulent conduct caused the producers to underpay royalties owed to the U.S. for gas extracted from those leases. Defendants will pay $4.375 million. DOJ
