If a ROW grant holder submits a name change to BLM, is that considered an assignment?
Yes, it is. Any action that changes the legal relationship between BLM and the current holder, including a name change, requires BLM approval through an assignment. The regulations governing assignments are contained in 43 CFR 2807.21 for FLPMA grants, and 43 CFR 2887.11 for MLA grants. BLM’s time to process assignments are fully cost recoverable from the potential assignee.
