	BLM Lands and Realty: Land Acquisition (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Acquisition, through exchange, purchase, and donation is an important component of the BLM's land management strategy.
		The purchase of land and interests in land, such as easements and water rights, can be accomplished within a few months if funding is available, and if there are no title defects, hazardous materials, or other mitigating local issues.
		The first step in purchasing lands or easements is to assure that title is acceptable to the United States, as well as the availability of funding for the transaction.

	16 COMPULSORY ACQUISITION
		Compulsory acquisition or purchase is the process whereby public bodies such as local authorities and government departments can acquire title to heritable property from private owners, without the owners’ consent, but only with the payment of appropriate compensation.
		Where the acquisition is by statutory conveyance, provided compulsory powers are available to the acquiring authority, it does not matter whether a compulsory purchase order has been made or not, the effect of the statutory conveyance is the same.
		Where the acquisition is by general vesting declaration, notice of title or notarial instrument, it is essential that a compulsory purchase order has been made and that all the statutory procedures have been correctly followed.

		It recognizes, however, that if it were to include the full acquisition premium directly in rate base at the time of transfer under Section 2720(a), the revenue requirement for the former Citizens districts would be driven up and rates would follow in the short term.
		Applicants are acutely aware that should the Commission decide that an acquisition with a short-term, significant increase in rates is not in the public interest despite the promise of longer term ratepayer benefits, it would not be approved.
		If the acquisition were disapproved, or if it were approved with conditions so onerous that Applicants decided not to proceed, there would be no synergies savings and ratepayers would be the worse off for it by having lost both the quantifiable benefits and the non-monetary or non-quantifiable benefits the acquisition would provide.
