  • 2021-02268 — Agricultural Conservation Easement Program
    💰
    Type:Rule
    Citation:86 FR 8113
    Reading Time:about 93 minutes

    The final rule permanently adopts changes to the Agricultural Conservation Easement Program (ACEP) made by the interim rule published in January 2020. It responds to public comments and adjusts several program aspects, including clarifying definitions, addressing eligibility requirements for agricultural and wetland easements, and enhancing conservation and land management practices. The changes, based on the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, are intended to improve the program's efficiency, allowing for more flexible non-Federal cost-sharing and incorporating additional conservation planning. The rule emphasizes voluntary participation by landowners and seeks to enhance the conservation value of public investments.

    Simple Explanation

    The rule is like setting new rules for a game to help farmers take better care of their land and water, making it easier and more organized for them to join and get help while also listening to others who shared their ideas about these changes.

  • 2025-00510 — Joint Policies of the Departments of the Interior and of the Army Relative to Reservoir Project Lands
    💰
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 4669
    Reading Time:about 11 minutes

    The Department of the Interior is changing its rules for buying land around reservoir areas. This new rule lets them use different kinds of ownership, like easements, instead of buying the land completely, especially for older reservoirs built before 1962. The rule aims to save money, reduce project completion time, and decrease conflicts with landowners. If there are no strong objections by March 17, 2025, the rule will take effect on April 16, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The Department of the Interior made a new rule that lets them use shortcuts to get pieces of land around old water reservoirs without buying the whole land, which might help them save time and money. If nobody complains a lot by March 17, 2025, they will start using this rule on April 16, 2025.

  • 2024-30984 — Proclaiming Certain Lands as Reservation for the Rincon Band of Luiseno Mission Indians of Rincon Reservation, California
    Type:Notice
    Citation:89 FR 106556
    Reading Time:about 4 minutes

    The Bureau of Indian Affairs, Interior Department has announced that about 56.66 acres of land have been officially added to the Rincon Reservation for the Rincon Band of Luiseno Mission Indians in San Diego, California. This proclamation was made on December 17, 2024, by the Assistant Secretary—Indian Affairs, under the authority granted by the Secretary of the Interior. While the land is recognized as part of the reservation, this action does not alter existing rights or easements for public utilities and transportation present on the land.

    Simple Explanation

    The government decided to give an extra piece of land, about the size of 56 soccer fields, to a group of Native Americans called the Rincon Band in California. They get to add this land to their home area, but it doesn’t change any roads or utility lines that are already there.
