Sec.  2920.2-1  Discussion of proposals.



    (a) Suggestions by land use proponent. Any person who seeks to use 

public lands may contact the Bureau of Land Management office having 

jurisdiction over the public lands in question and discuss the land use 

proposal. This contact should be made as early as possible so that 

administrative requirements and potential conflicts with other land uses 

can be identified.

    (b) Response by the authorized officer. The authorized officer will 

discuss with the land use proponent whether the requested land use, 

suitability or non-suitability of the requested land use based on a 

preliminary examination of existing land use plans, where available, is 

or is not in conformance with Bureau of Land Management policies and 

programs for the lands, local zoning ordinances and any other pertinent 

information. The authorized officer will discuss administrative 

requirements for the type of land use authorization which may be granted 

(lease, permit or easement), including, but not limited to: additional 

information which may be required; qualifications; cost reimbursement 

requirements; associated clearances, other permits or licenses which may 

be required; environmental and management considerations; and special 

requirements such as competitive bidding and identification of on-the-

ground investigations which may be required in order to issue a land use 

authorization.
