Abstract
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is streamlining its exchange regulations at 43 CFR group 2200 by amending Sec. 2200.0-7 of part 2200 and by removing parts 2210, 2240, 2250, and 2270. Section 2200.0-7 states that, apart from the Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA), the Secretary of the Interior administers various statutes authorizing land exchanges, and that those exchanges may involve BLM- managed lands. If BLM-managed lands are involved, the other statutes will prevail over the regulations in part 2200 to the extent they are inconsistent with the regulations in part 2200. BLM is simultaneously removing parts 2210, 2240, 2250, and 2270 because the regulations in those parts largely restate the substance of the exchange statutes referenced in them and are, in that respect, redundant and unnecessary.
