A lease may not carry conditions the resource management plan does not have

What the document says
“may not require any stipulations or mitigation requirements not included in the approved resource management plan.”
The section provides that a lease issued under the section is subject to the terms and conditions of the approved resource management plan and may not carry stipulations or mitigation requirements the plan does not include, and that starting an amendment to a plan does not stop or delay the Secretary from making a parcel available under the plan as it stands.
What the document actually says
“may not require any stipulations or mitigation requirements not included in the approved resource management plan.”
That sentence, in plain words
A lease may not add conditions of its own. Only what the land plan already says may be required.
What this is about
That covers steps to limit harm to the land. Starting work on a new plan does not pause leasing. The old plan still governs.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
