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 “Miles City Field Office Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan Amendment”,  1

A resolution of disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5 of the United States Code, the Congressional Review Act. It names the rule by the title the agency gave it and by where the rule was published, and it states no reason. What the rule itself required is not described here, because that rule is not one of the documents this site has indexed.

That sentence, in plain words

Congress votes down a rule about land use near Miles City. The rule now has no force.

What this is about

The BLM wrote a rule about land use near Miles City. Congress voted to undo it. The rule is dead. It binds no one now. Congress used a law that lets it undo a new rule within a set time.

What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out

The one thing the resolution does: it names a rule and deprives it of force.

The rule being disapproved. It is an agency rule published in the Federal Register, not this law, and it is named here rather than summarized.

The resolution gives no reason for the disapproval, so none is recorded. Members' reasons, where they gave any, are in their floor remarks rather than in the law.
