Title: Update of the Communications Uses Program, Right-of-Way Cost Recovery Fee Schedules and Section 512 of FLPMA for Rights-of-Way 
Abstract:

The BLM amended its right-of-way regulations to improve access to broadband communications and update the cost recovery fee schedules for ROW work activities. Additionally, this rule implements vegetation management requirements to address fire risk from and to power line ROWs on public lands and national forests. The BLM provided a total of 70 days for the public to comment on the proposed rule. In addition, the BLM met and discussed the rule with Ahtna, Inc., an Alaska Native Regional Corporation, and the Santa Rosa Rancheria Tachi-Yokut Tribe in California.
