Amendment of Proposed Withdrawal; Oregon
AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management proposes to amend its withdrawal
application dated April 17, 1998, by adding 1.4 acres of recently
acquired lands from surface entry and mining to protect the facilities
and unique values of the Row River Trail. This notice does not alter or
extend the 2 year segregative effect of the original notice other than
adding the 1.4 acres of Federal land. The lands have been and will
remain open to mineral leasing.
EFFECTIVE DATE: Comments and requests for a public meeting must be
received by February 9, 2000.
ADDRESSES: Comments should be sent to the Oregon/Washington State
Director, BLM, P.O. Box 2965, Portland, Oregon 97208-2965.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Charles R. Roy, BLM Oregon/Washington
State Office, 503-952-6189.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 17, 1998, a petition/application
was approved for consideration by the Assistant Secretary, Lands and
Minerals Management, allowing the Bureau of Land Management to study
the proposed 196.07 acres of Federal land. A notice of proposed
withdrawal was published in the Federal Register on May 14, 1998, 63 FR
26824, segregating the public lands from settlement, sale, location, or
entry under the general land laws, including the United States mining
laws (30 U.S.C. Ch. 2 (1994)), but not from leasing under the mineral
leasing laws, subject to valid existing rights, for a period of two
years from the date of publication in the Federal Register. This notice
adds the following described lands to the application:
Willamette Meridian
The portions of the following lands as more particularly
identified and described by metes and bounds in the official records
of the Bureau of Land Management, Oregon/Washington State Office and
the Eugene District Office, Eugene, Oregon:
T. 21 S., R. 3 W.,
Sec. 1, lot 4 and Donation Land Claim No. 60.
Sec. 2, NE\1/4\NE\1/4\.
The areas described aggregate approximately 1.4 acres in Lane
County.
The purpose of the proposed withdrawal would be to protect the
facilities and unique recreational values of the approximate 14 miles
of improved recreational trail converted from an abandoned railroad
right-of-way.
For a period of 30 days from the date of publication of this
notice, all persons who wish to submit comments, suggestions, or
objections in connection with the proposed amendment to the withdrawal
application may present their views in writing to the State Director at
the address indicated above.
The lands added to the original application will be segregated as
specified above unless the application is denied or canceled or the
withdrawal is approved prior to that date. The temporary land uses
which may be permitted during this segregative period include licenses,
permits, rights-of-way, and disposal of vegetative resources other than
under the mining laws.
Dated: December 22, 1999.
Robert D. DeViney, Jr.,
Chief, Branch of Realty and Records Services.
