Abstract: The BLM is seeking approval to revise control no. 1004-0212 to include the information collection activities in the re-instated, pre-2016 planning regulations. This action is necessary because the BLM's new and revised planning regulations that were published in 2016 have been invalidated under the Congressional Review Act, and the BLM needs to continue collecting the information under the re-instated rules in order to continue complying with the land use planning provisions of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act. This information collection request consists of activities that were in use without a control number.before the 2016 regulations were finalized.
