Enacted
Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Bureau of Land Management relating to "North Dakota Field Office Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan".
This resolution cancels an updated federal land management plan for public lands and mineral rights across North Dakota. By voiding the plan, it halts new federal rules that govern where and how activities like oil and gas drilling, coal mining, cattle grazing, and wildlife conservation can take place. Federal land managers would have to rely on older guidelines rather than enforcing the updated policies.
People affected—The text specifies no target population count or demographic estimates.
Fiscal magnitude—The text contains no appropriations, fee structures, or financial amounts.
