43 CFR Part 1820
[WO-420-4191-02-24 1A]
RIN 1004-AC41
Application Procedures, Execution and Filing of Forms: Correction
of State Office Addresses for Filings and Recordings, Proper Offices
for Recording of Mining Claims
AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This administrative final rule amends the regulations
pertaining to execution and filing of forms in order to reflect the new
address of the California State Office of the Bureau of Land Management
(BLM), which moved in June 1996. All filings and other documents
relating to public lands in California must be filed at the new address
of the State Office.
EFFECTIVE DATE: July 19, 1996.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ted Hudson, (202) 452-5042.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This administrative final rule reflects the
administrative action of changing the address of the California State
Office of BLM. It changes the address for the filing of documents
relating to public lands in California, but makes no other changes in
filing requirements. Therefore, this amendment is published as a final
rule with the effective date shown above.
Because this final rule is an administrative action to change the
address for one BLM State Office, BLM has determined that it has no
substantive impact on the public. It imposes no costs, and merely
updates a list of addresses included in the Code of Federal Regulations
for the convenience of the public. The Department of the Interior,
therefore, for good cause finds under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) and 553(d)(3)
that notice and public procedure thereon are unnecessary and that this
rule may take effect upon publication.
[[Page 37687]]
Because this final rule is a purely administrative regulatory
action having no effects upon the public or the environment, it has
been determined that the rule is categorically excluded from review
under Section 102(2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act (42
U.S.C. 4332(2)(C)).
This rule was not subject to review by the Office of Management and
Budget under Executive Order 12866.
As required by Executive Order 12630, the Department of the
Interior has determined that the rule would not cause a taking of
private property. No private property rights would be affected by a
rule that merely reports address changes for BLM State Offices. The
Department therefore certifies that this proposed rule does not
represent a governmental action capable of interference with
constitutionally protected property rights.
Further, the Department has determined under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601, et seq.) that it will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
Reporting address changes for BLM State Offices will not have any
economic impact whatsoever.
This rule does not contain information collection requirements that
require approval by the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.
BLM has determined that this rule is not significant under the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995, because it will not result in the
expenditure by State, local, and tribal governments, in the aggregate,
or by the private sector, of $100 million or more in any one year.
Further, this rule will not significantly or uniquely affect small
governments.
