AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.
ACTION: Plan Amendment/Notice of Realty Action.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the Bureau of Land Management
(BLM) has amended the Sonoma-Gerlach Management Framework Plan to
identify for disposal under the Federal Land Policy and Management Act
350 acres of public land described as:
Mount Diablo Meridian, Nevada
T. 27 N., R. 31 E.,
Sec. 7: E\1/2\SE\1/4\NE\1/4\, NE\1/4\SW\1/4\SE\1/4\, S\1/2\SW\1/
4\SE\1/4\, E\1/2\SE\1/4\;

Sec. 18: N\1/2\NE\1/4\, E\1/2\NE\1/4\NW\1/4\;
Containing 350 acres more or less.
The subject lands have been found suitable for direct sale under
Sections 203 and 209 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of
1976 (43 U.S.C. 1713 and 1719), at not less than fair market value.
The above described lands are hereby classified for disposal in
accordance with Executive Order 6910 and the Act of June 28, 1934, as
amended.
The lands were formerly segregated from sale by publication of a
Notice of Realty Action (N58101) published in the Federal Register on
January 14, 1994, in anticipation of an R&PP lease. Upon publication of
this notice in the Federal Register, the segregation against sale under
the authority of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act is
terminated and the subject lands are open to sale under the authority
of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act. Upon patent issuance for
the subject lands, the Recreation and Public Purposes Act Lease N-
58101, issued to the Pershing County Fair and Recreation Board, shall
terminate.
The lands are not required for Federal purposes. Disposal is
consistent with the Bureau's planning for this area and would be in the
public's interest. This land is being offered by direct sale to the
Pershing County Fair and Recreation Board. It has been determined that
the subject parcel contains no known mineral values.
Acceptance of a direct sale offer will constitute an application
for conveyance of those mineral interests having no known value. The
applicant will be required to pay a $50.00 non-refundable filing fee
for conveyance of the said mineral interests. The land will not be
offered for sale until at least 60 days after publication of this
notice in the Federal Register.

affected by the amendment may protest this action as it affects issues
