Bill Summary
Declares that if, by 45 days after a state Bureau of Land Management (BLM) office has submitted a Federal Register notice to the Washington, DC, office of the BLM for review by the Department of the Interior, the review has not been completed: (1) the notice shall consider to be approved, and (2) the state BLM office shall immediately forward the notice to the Federal Register for publication.
AI Summary
This bill aims to speed up the review process for official public notices, known as Federal Register notices, that are submitted to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), a government agency responsible for managing public lands. Specifically, if a state BLM office sends a notice to the BLM's Washington, D.C. headquarters for review by the Department of the Interior, and that review isn't finished within 45 days of submission, the bill states that the notice will automatically be considered approved and the state BLM office must then send it to the Federal Register for publication. The Federal Register is the official daily publication for rules, proposed rules, and notices of Federal agencies and organizations, as well as executive orders and other presidential documents.
