Purpose:  This Instruction Memorandum (IM) revises the Arizona Cost Recovery Fee Schedule to reflect increased Department of the Interior (DOI) search and review fees for cost recovery.

 

Policy/Action:  All Arizona Public Rooms are to adopt the cost recovery fees in the attached revised schedule.  Attachment 1 provides the updated schedule of DOI rates for research, search, and review fees for services performed in making documents available for public inspection and copying.  The new fees are to be posted in all Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Arizona Public Rooms; Attachment 2 provides sample lists for posting.  All other Arizona rates for the sale of products or services to the public remain unchanged.

 

Timeframe:  Effective immediately.

 

Background:  In accordance with 43 CFR Part 2, Appendix C(1), the DOI has revised cost recovery fees for use in BLM Public Rooms for the sale of products or services to the public.  Previously issued Arizona policy on cost recovery is now obsolete and must be reissued.

 

Manual/Handbook Sections Affected:  BLM Handbook 1270-2, Cost Recovery; BLM Manual 1271, BLM Information Access Center.

 

Contact:  Questions regarding this IM should be directed to Lynn Peterson, State Records  Administrator, at 602-417-9347; or Toni Klimek, Records Administration Team Lead, at 602-417-9364.
