# §585.308. How will BOEM conduct an auction for ROW grants and RUE grants?

- (a) If BOEM determines that there is competitive interest, we will:
  - (1) Publish a notice of each grant auction in the Federal Register describing auction procedures, allowing interested persons 30 days to comment; and
  - (2) **Conduct a competitive auction for issuing the ROW grant or RUE grant.** The auction process for ROW grants and RUE grants will be conducted following the same process for leases set forth in [§§ 585.210 through 585.226](/cfr/30/585.210..585.226.md).
- (b) If you are the successful bidder in an auction, you must pay the first year's rent, as provided in [§ 585.316](/cfr/30/585.316.md).
