43 C.F.R. § 3212.10 What is the difference between a suspension of operations and production and a suspension of operations?
Title 43 - Public Lands: Interior
A suspension of operations and production is a temporary relief from production obligations which you may request from BLM because economic conditions make it unjustifiable for you to continue operating. A suspension of operations is when we order you, on our own initiative, to temporarily stop production in order to protect the resource.
