Sec. 2621.4  Application for selection of unsurveyed lands.

    (a) The authorized officer will reject any application for selection 
of unsurveyed lands if: (1) The costs of survey of the lands would 
grossly exceed the average per-acre costs of surveying public lands 
under the rectangular system of surveys in the State in which the lands 
are located, or (2) if the conveyance of the lands would create serious 
problems in the administration of the remaining public lands or 
resources thereof or would significantly diminish the value of the 
remaining public lands. The term remaining public lands means the public 
lands from which the applied-for lands would be separated by survey.
    (b) In addition to the provisions of this section, applications for 
selection of unsurveyed lands are subject to the provisions of subpart 
2400.
