asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
Within 10 days of receiving the application,
the BLM, in coordination with the operator
and Surface Managing Agency, including the
private surface owner in the case of split
estate minerals, will schedule a date for the
onsite inspection (unless the onsite
inspection has already been conducted as
part of a Notice of Staking). The onsite
inspection will be held as soon as practicable
based on participants’ schedules and weather
conditions. The operator will be notified at
the onsite inspection of any additional
deficiencies that are discovered during the
inspection. The operator has 45 days after
receiving notice from the BLM to provide any
additional information necessary to complete
the APD, or the APD may be returned to the
operator.
b. Within 30 days after the operator has
submitted a complete application, including
incorporating any changes that resulted from
the onsite inspection, the BLM will:
1. Approve the application, subject to
reasonable Conditions of Approval, if the
appropriate requirements of the NEPA,
National Historic Preservation Act,
Endangered Species Act, and other
applicable law have been met and, if on NFS
lands, the FS has approved the Surface Use
Plan of Operations;
2. Notify the operator that it is deferring
action on the permit; or
3. Deny the permit if it cannot be approved
and the BLM cannot identify any actions that
the operator could take that would enable the
BLM to issue the permit or the FS to approve
the Surface Use Plan of Operations, if
applicable.
c. The notice of deferral in paragraph (b)(2)
of this section must specify:
1. Any action the operator could take that
would enable the BLM (in consultation with
the FS if applicable) to issue a final decision
on the application. The FS will notify the
applicant of any action the applicant could
take that would enable the FS to issue a final
decision on the Surface Use Plan of
Operations on NFS lands. Actions may
include, but are not limited to, assistance
with:
(A) Data gathering; and
(B) Preparing analyses and documents.
2. If applicable, a list of actions that the
BLM or the FS need to take before making
a final decision on the application, including
appropriate analysis under NEPA or other
applicable law and a schedule for completing
these actions.
d. The operator has 2 years from the date
of the notice under paragraph (c)(1) of this
section to take the action specified in the
notice. If the appropriate analyses required

by NEPA, National Historic Preservation Act,
Endangered Species Act, and other
applicable laws have been completed, the
BLM (and the FS if applicable), will make a
decision on the permit and the Surface Use
Plan of Operations within 10 days of
receiving a report from the operator
addressing all of the issues or actions
specified in the notice under paragraph (c)(1)
of this section and certifying that all required
actions have been taken. If the operator has
not completed the actions specified in the
notice within 2 years from the operator’s
receipt of the paragraph (c)(1) notice, the
BLM will deny the permit.
e. For APDs on NFS lands, the decision to
approve a Surface Use Plan of Operations or
Master Development Plan may be subject to
FS appeal procedures. The BLM cannot
approve an APD until the appeal of the
Surface Use Plan of Operations is resolved.

I. Waiver From Electronic Submission
Requirements
The operator may request a waiver from
the electronic submission requirement for an
APD or Notice of Staking if compliance
would cause hardship or the operator is
unable to file these documents electronically.
In the request, the operator must explain the
reason(s) that prevents it from using the
electronic system. The waiver request is
subject to BLM approval. The BLM will not
consider an APD or Notice of Staking that the
operator did not submit through the
electronic system, unless the BLM approves
a waiver.
