The remainder of the minimum bid and bonus bid will be deposited with the U.S. Treasury. Neither amount will be returned or refunded to the successful bidder(s) under any circumstance. Only interests in issued right-of-way grants or leases are assignable under the regulations at 43 CFR 2807.21. The interest acquired by the successful bidder or preferred applicant from this auction may not be assigned or sold to another party prior to the issuance of a right-of-way grant or lease. The successful bidder may, however, continue to pursue their application if the successful bidder becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of a new third party. Section 50265(b)(1) of the Inflation Reduction Act (codified at 43 U.S.C. 3006(b)(1)) conditions the issuance of rights-of-way for wind or solar energy development on public lands on (1) the BLM having held an onshore oil and gas lease sale during the 120-day period before the issuance of the wind or solar energy development right-of-way on public lands, and (2) the BLM having offered—in the one-year period preceding the date of the issuance of the wind or solar lease or grant—the lesser of 2 million acres or 50 percent of the oil and gas acreage for which expressions of interest had been submitted in that year. For Parcels A and B, the BLM will ensure compliance with these provisions prior to issuing the solar development right-of-way lease to the successful bidder, if any. For Parcels 1 and 2, the BLM will ensure compliance with these provisions prior to issuance of solar energy development right-of-way grants, should solar development be approved in the future. Default Procedures If the requirements listed in this Notice are not satisfied by the successful bidder as described, it will be considered default, and the BLM will keep all money that has been submitted and will not offer that bidder a right-ofway lease (Parcels A and B) or identify that bidder as the preferred ROW applicant (Parcels 1 and 2). In that event, the BLM may identify the next highest bidder as the successful bidder (then follow procedures in this Notice for the successful bidder) or re-offer the lands through another competitive process. If a bidder is the apparent successful bidder with respect to multiple parcels and that bidder fails to meet the requirements described in this Notice resulting in default on any single parcel, the BLM will cancel all parcels to that bidder and will keep all money that has been submitted. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:45 Apr 10, 2023 Jkt 259001 Segregation—Parcel 1 and Parcel 2 Regulations found at 43 CFR 2091.3– 1(e) and 2804.25(f) allow the BLM to segregate public lands for potential rights-of-way when initiating a competitive process for solar energy development from the operation of the public land laws, including the Mining Law, by publication of a Federal Register notice. The BLM uses this authority to preserve its ability to approve, approve with modifications, or deny proposed rights-of-way and to facilitate the orderly administration of the public lands. This segregation is subject to valid existing rights, including existing mining claims located before this segregation notice. Licenses, permits, cooperative agreements, or discretionary land use authorizations of a temporary nature that would not impact lands identified in this notice may be allowed with the approval of a BLM authorized officer during the segregation period. As provided in the regulations, the segregation of lands described in this notice as Parcel 1 and Parcel 2 will not exceed 2 years from the date of publication unless extended for an additional 2 years through publication of a new notice in the Federal Register. The segregation period will terminate and the land will automatically reopen to appropriation under the public land laws, including the mining law, at the earliest of the following dates: upon issuance of a decision by the authorized officer granting, granting with modifications, or denying the application for a right-of-way; without further administrative action at the end of the segregation provided for in the Federal Register notice initiating the segregation; or upon publication of a Federal Register notice terminating the segregation. Upon termination of the segregation of these lands, all lands subject to this segregation would automatically reopen to appropriation under the public land laws, including the mining law.
