government and the states; or on the
distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various
levels of government. The shooting
closure affects land in only one state,
Nevada. Therefore, BLM has determined
that the shooting closure does not have
sufficient Federalism implications to
warrant preparation of a Federalism
Assessment.
Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice
Reform
Under Executive Order 12988, the
Office of the Solicitor has determined
that the shooting closure will not
unduly burden the judicial system and
that the requirements of sections 3(a)
and 3(b)(2) of the Order are met. The
shooting closure includes rules of
conduct and prohibited acts, but they
are straightforward and not confusing,
and their enforcement should not
unreasonably burden the United States
Magistrate who will try any persons
cited for violating them.
Executive Order 13175, Consultation
and Coordination With Indian Tribal
Governments
In accordance with Executive Order
13175, the BLM has found that this
shooting closure does not include
policies having Tribal implications. The
shooting closure does not affect lands
held for the benefit of Indians, Aleuts or
Eskimos.
Paperwork Reduction Action
The shooting closure does not contain
information collection requirements that
the Office of Management and Budget
must approve under the paperwork
reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
Rules requiring special recreation
permits for certain recreational users
will involve collection of information
contained on BLM Special recreation
Permit Form 2930–1.
Authority: 43 CFR 8364.1.
