Filing of State Indemnity Selection Application and Termination 
of Exchange Segregation; Utah

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice of realty action.

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

SUMMARY: On September 11, 2007, the State of Utah, School and 
Institutional Trust Lands Administration (State) filed indemnity 
selection application UTU-85820, to have the surface and mineral estate 
of 281.72 acres of Federal land transferred to the State pursuant to 
Sections 2275 and 2276 of the Revised Statutes, as amended (43 U.S.C. 
851-852). The lands have been selected by the State in lieu of school 
section lands granted to the State pursuant to the Utah Enabling Act of 
July 16, 1894, but for which title could not pass because the lands 
were otherwise encumbered or reserved at the time of statehood.

Management, Utah State Office, 324 South State Street, P.O. Box 45155, 
Salt Lake City, Utah 84145-0155. Phone 801-539-4117.

segregation is hereby terminated upon publication of this notice. The 
filing of the in lieu application by the State segregates the Federal 
lands from the public land laws and mineral laws. This segregation 
becomes effective upon publication of this notice and shall terminate

selection for the Federal lands if the lands are found suitable for 
transfer; upon the publication in the Federal Register of a notice of 
termination of the segregation; or upon the expiration of two years 
from the date of the filing of this application, whichever occurs 
first.
