ACTION: Notice of realty action.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Two parcels of public land totaling 19.44 acres in Blaine
County, Idaho, are being considered for direct sale, under the
provisions of the Federal Land Policy Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA),
at no less than the appraised fair market value.
DATES: In order to ensure consideration in the environmental analysis
of the proposed sale, comments must be received by March 2, 2009.
ADDRESSES: Address all comments concerning this Notice to Tara Hagen,
Realty Specialist, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Shoshone Field
Office, 400 West F Street, Shoshone, Idaho 83352.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tara Hagen, Realty Specialist, at the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The following described public land in
Blaine County, Idaho, is being considered for sale under the authority
of Sections 203 and 209 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act
of 1976 (90 Stat. 2750, 43 U.S.C. 1713):
Boise Meridian
T. 4 N., R. 18 E.,
Sec. 25, Lots 19-21, and 23-24.
The area described contains 19.44 acres in Blaine County.
The 1981 BLM Sun Valley Framework Management Plan, as amended, by
the Amendments to Shoshone Field Office Land Use Plans for Land Tenure
Adjustment and Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (2003)
identifies this parcel of land to be within the adjustment area of land
tenure Zone 5. The general management
[[Page 3100]]
philosophy of Zone 5 is to allow disposal of public lands through sale
or exchange. Sales to private land owners will only be allowed if the
tracts are small, isolated parcels generally left from mining patents
or a resurvey by the USDI cadastral survey. Conveyance of the
identified public land will be subject to valid existing rights and
encumbrances of record, including but not limited to, rights-of-way for
roads and public utilities. Conveyance of any mineral interests
pursuant to Section 209 of the FLPMA will be analyzed during processing
of the proposed direct sale.
On January 16, 2009 the above-described land will be segregated
from appropriation under the public land laws, including the mining
laws, except the sale provisions of the FLPMA. Until completion of the
sale, the BLM is no longer accepting land use applications affecting
the identified public land, except applications for the amendment of
previously-filed right-of-way applications or existing authorizations
to increase the term of the grants in accordance with 43 CFR 2807.15
and 2886.15. The segregative effect will terminate upon issuance of a
patent, publication in the Federal Register of a termination of the
segregation, or January 18, 2011 unless extended by the BLM State
Director in accordance with 43 CFR 2711.1-2(d) prior to the termination
date.
Public Comments: For a period until March 2, 2009, interested
parties and the general public may submit in writing any comments
concerning the land being considered for sale, including notification
of any encumbrances or other claims relating to the identified land, to
Field Manager, BLM Shoshone Field Office, at the above address. In
order to ensure consideration in the environmental analysis of the
proposed sale, comments must be in writing and postmarked or delivered
within 45 days of the initial date of publication of this Notice.
Comments transmitted via e-mail will not be accepted. Comments,
including names and street addresses of respondents, will be available
for public review at the BLM Shoshone Field Office during regular
business hours, except holidays. Individual respondents may request
confidentiality. Before including your address, phone number, e-mail
address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you
should be aware that your entire comment--including your personal
identifying information--may be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your personal
identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we
will be able to do so. If you wish to have your name or address
withheld from public disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act,
you must state this prominently at the beginning of your comments. Any
determination by the BLM to release or withhold the names and/or
addresses of those who comment will be made on a case-by-case basis.
Such requests will be honored to the extent allowed by law. The BLM
will make available for public review, in their entirety, all comments
submitted by businesses or organizations, including comments by
individuals in their capacity as an official or representative of a
business or organization.
Authority: 43 CFR 2711.1-2.
Dated: January 5, 2009.
Lori A. Armstrong,
Shoshone Field Manager.
