Total Acres 1,250.00, more or less.
Effective immediately, the BLM will process the pending application
in accordance with the regulations stated in 43 CFR part 2720. Written
comments concerning the application must be received no later than the
date specified above in this notice. The purpose for a purchase and
conveyance is to allow consolidation of surface and subsurface minerals
ownership where (1) there are no known mineral values or (2) in those
instances where the Federal mineral interest reservation interferes
with or precludes appropriate nonmineral development and such
development is a more beneficial use of the land than the mineral
development.
On September 3, 2008, the mineral interests owned by the United
States in the above described lands will be segregated to the extent
that they will not be subject to the appropriation under the public
land laws, including the mining laws. The segregative effect shall
terminate upon issuance of a patent or deed of such mineral interest;
upon final rejection of the mineral conveyance application; or
September 3, 2010, whichever occurs first.
Authority: 43 CFR 2720.1-1(b).
Rosemary Thomas,
Four Rivers Field Manager.
