In order to minimize adverse environmental impacts and the proliferation of separate rights-of-way, the utilization of rights-of-way in common shall be required to the extent practical, and each right-of-way or permit shall reserve to the Secretary concerned the right to grant additional rights-of-way or permits for compatible uses on or adjacent to rights-of-way granted pursuant to this Act. In designating right-of-way corridors and in determining whether to require that rights-of-way be confined to them, the Secretary concerned shall take into consideration national and State land use policies, environmental quality, economic efficiency, national security, safety, and good engineering and technological practices. The Secretary concerned shall issue regulations containing the criteria and procedures he will use in designating such corridors. Any existing transportation and utility corridors may be designated as transportation and utility corridors pursuant to this subsection without further review.

§ 1770
tion and shall give the holder a reasonable time
to resume use of the right-of-way or to comply
with this subchapter condition, rule, or regula-
tion as the case may be. Failure of the holder of
the right-of-way to use the right-of-way for the
purpose for which it was granted, issued, or re-
newed, for any continuous five-year period, shall
constitute a rebuttable presumption of abandon-
ment of the right-of-way except that where the
failure of the holder to use the right-of-way for
the purpose for which it was granted, issued, or
renewed for any continuous five-year period is
due to circumstances not within the holder’s
control, the Secretary concerned is not required
to commence proceedings to suspend or termi-
nate the right-of-way.
