<body>
<p>In accordance with the Helium Stewardship Act of 2013, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is no longer conducting the Federal in-kind program, whereby Federal users purchase helium from third parties who then purchased that same amount of helium from BLM. This final rule will update BLM&rsquo;s regulations to reflect those changes.</p>
