| 2026-03364 | Locatable Minerals | Proposed Rule | The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service (Agency), is proposing to revise its regulations governing occupancy and use of the surface of National Forest System lands in connection with prospecting, exploration, development, mining, processing, and reclamation and reasonably incident uses authorized by U.S. mining laws and the Organic Administration Act of 1897. Regulatory revisions are needed to improve the efficiency and transparency of Forest Service regulation of locatable mineral operations conducted on National Forest System lands under the mining laws, and to minimize, to the fullest extent practicable, adverse impacts on surface resources. In addition, the revisions will support Federal policy to secure reliable and sustainable supplies of strategic and critical minerals in the United States. | 2026-02-20 | 2026 | 2 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/02/20/2026-03364/locatable-minerals | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-02-20/pdf/2026-03364.pdf | Agriculture Department; Forest Service | 12,209 | The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service (Agency), is proposing to revise its regulations governing occupancy and use of the surface of National Forest System lands in connection with prospecting, exploration, development, mining, processing,... |
