Abstract
The Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA) is amending its existing regulations governing petitions for stays of grazing decisions issued by the Bureau of Land Management. The changes would specifically authorize OHA administrative law judges to decide such petitions, which would expedite the administrative review process by eliminating an inefficient division of authority.
