Sec. 251.64  Renewals.

    (a) When a special use authorization provides for renewal, the 
authorized officer shall renew it where such renewal is authorized by 
law, if the project or facility is still being used for the purpose(s) 
previously authorized and is being operated and maintained in accordance 
with all the provisions of the authorization. In making such renewal, 
the authorized officer may modify the terms, conditions, and special 
stipulations to reflect any new requirements imposed by current Federal 
and State land use plans, laws, regulations or other management 
decisions. Special uses may be reauthorized upon expiration so long as 
such use remains consistent with the decision that approved the expiring 
special use or group of uses. If significant new information or 
circumstances have developed, appropriate environmental analysis must 
accompany the decision to reauthorize the special use.
    (b) When a special use authorization does not provide for renewal, 
it is discretionary with the authorized officer, upon request from the 
holder and prior to its expiration, whether or not the authorization 
shall be renewed. A renewal pursuant to this section shall comply with 
the same provisions contained in paragraph (a) of this section.
