Leases must match land use plans

Under this House-adopted resolution, H.R. 1 now ties federal leases to the area’s land use plan. A lease must include the plan’s terms and conditions. Agencies cannot add extra stipulations or mitigation that are not in the plan. This limits surprise requirements and costs for lease applicants and holders.
