§2805.15. What rights does the United States retain?
43 C.F.R. § 2805.15
The United States retains and may exercise any rights the grant does not expressly convey to you. These include BLM's right to:
Access the lands and enter the facilities described in the authorization. The BLM will give you reasonable notice before it enters any facility on the right-of-way;
Require common use of your right-of-way, including facilities (see § 2805.14(b)), subsurface, and air space, and authorize use of the right-of-way for compatible uses. You may not charge for the use of the lands made subject to such additional right-of-way grants;
Retain ownership of the resources of the land, including timber and vegetative or mineral materials and any other living or non-living resources. You have no right to use these resources, except as noted in § 2805.14(e) of this subpart;
Determine whether or not your grant is renewable; and
Change the terms and conditions of your grant as a result of changes in legislation, regulation, or as otherwise necessary to protect public health or safety or the environment. After a grant is signed by the BLM, any modification of the terms and conditions generally requires the BLM to issue a new or amended grant;
Terminate your authorization for non-compliance; and
Require you to provide applicable financial documents and supporting documents including, but not limited to, contractual and subleasing agreements.
