              Subpart 2310_Withdrawals, General: Procedure
 
Sec. 2310.1-4  Cancellation of withdrawal applications or withdrawal 
proposals and denial of applications.

    (a) Withdrawal or extension applications and proposals shall be 
amended promptly to cancel the application or proposal, in whole or in 
part, with respect to any lands which the applicant, in the case of 
applications, or the office, in the case of proposals, determines are no 
longer needed in connection with a requested or proposed action. The 
filing of a cancellation notice in each such case shall result in the 
termination of the segregation of the public lands that are to be 
eliminated from the withdrawal application or withdrawal proposal. (See 
Sec. 2310.2-1 of this title)
    (b) The Secretary may deny an application if the costs (as defined 
in section 304(b) of the Act (43 U.S.C. 1734(b)) estimated to be 
incurred by the Department of the Interior would, in the judgment of the 
Secretary, be excessive in relation to available funds appropriated for 
processing applications requesting a discretionary withdrawal, or a 
modification or extension of a withdrawal.
