Notice of Realty Action

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Interior.

ACTION: Notice of Realty Action; Recreation and Public Purposes (R&PP) 
Act Classification; Utah.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The following public land, located in Washington County, Utah, 
has been examined and found suitable for classification for conveyance 
to the City of Washington under the provision of the Recreation and 
Public Purposes Act. As amended (43 U.S.C. 869 et. seq.):

Salt Lake Meridian, Utah

T. 42 S., R. 14 W.,
    Sec. 9 , N\1/2\NW\1/4\NW\1/4\,

    Containing 15 acres, more or less.


SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The City of Washington proposes to use the 
land to construct, operate and maintain a water treatment facility. The 
land is not needed for Federal purposes. Conveying title to the 
affected public land is consistent with current BLM land use planning 
and would be in the public interest.
    The patent, when issued, would be subject to the following terms, 
conditions, and reservations:
    1. Provisions of the Recreation and Public Purposes Act and all 
applicable regulations of the Secretary of the Interior.
    2. A right-of-way for ditches and canals constructed by the 
authority of the United States.
    3. All minerals shall be reserved to the United States, together 
with the right to prospect for, mine, and remove the minerals.
    4. Those rights for power line purposes granted to PacifiCorp by 
right-of-way U-43523.
    Detailed information concerning this action is available at the 
office of the Bureau of Land Management, St. George Field Office, 345 
E. Riverside Drive, St. George, Utah 84790. Upon publication of this 
notice in the Federal Register, the land will be segregated from all 
other forms of appropriation under the public land laws, including the 
general mining laws, except for leasing or conveyance under the 
Recreation and Public Purposes Act and leasing under the mineral 
leasing laws. For a period of 45 days from the date of publication of 
this notice in the Federal Register, interested persons may submit 
comments regarding the proposed classification, leasing or conveyance 
of the land to the Field Office Manager, St. George Field Office.

Classification Comments

    Interested parties may submit comments involving the suitability of 
the lands for a water treatment facility. Comments on the 
classification are restricted to whether the land is physically suited 
for the proposal, whether the use will maximize the future use or uses 
of the land, whether the use is consistent with local planning and 
zoning, or if the use is consistent with State and Federal programs.

Application Comments

    Interested parties may submit comments regarding the specific use 
proposed in the City's application, whether the BLM followed proper 
administrative procedures in reaching the decision, or any other factor 
not directly related to the suitability of the land for water treatment 
facility purposes.
    Any adverse comments will be reviewed by the State Director. In the 
absence of any adverse comments, the classification will become 
effective 60 days from the date of publication of this notice.

    Dated: July 2, 2002.
