{"abstract":"The Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA) is proposing to amend its existing regulations governing hearings and appeals to simplify proof of service, to codify who has a right of appeal, and to expedite its review of wildfire management decisions. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is adding regulations to make its wildfire management decisions effective immediately and to expedite review of those decisions. The amendments and additions to both OHA and BLM regulations are needed to clarify and expedite administrative review procedures.","action":"Proposed rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR","name":"Interior Department","id":253,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/interior-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/253","parent_id":null,"slug":"interior-department"},{"raw_name":"Office of Hearings and Appeals","name":"Hearings and Appeals Office, Interior Department","id":223,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/hearings-and-appeals-office-interior-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/223","parent_id":253,"slug":"hearings-and-appeals-office-interior-department"},{"raw_name":"Bureau of Land Management","name":"Land Management Bureau","id":275,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/land-management-bureau","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/275","parent_id":253,"slug":"land-management-bureau"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2002/12/16/02-31575.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":4,"title":43},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":4100,"title":43},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":5000,"title":43}],"citation":"67 FR 77011","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2003-02-14","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"You should submit your comments by February 14, 2003.
