ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice terminates existing Recreation and Public Purposes
Classification N 20972 in its entirety and opens the land to
appropriation under the public land laws and general mining laws,
subject to any valid existing rights.
EFFECTIVE DATE: November 30, 1995.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Charles J. Kihm, Bureau of Land Management, Carson City District, 1535
Hot Springs Road, Carson City, Nevada 89706, (702) 885-6000.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 2, 1984, the public lands described
below were classified as suitable for lease and sale under the
Recreation and Public Purposes Act, as amended (43 U.S.C. 869, 869-1 to
869-4).
Mount Diablo Meridian, Nevada
T. 16 N., R. 22 E.,
Sec. 16, NW\1/4\ of Lot 2.
The area described contains 10.81 acres in Lyon County.
On July 25, 1984, the subject lands were leased for a fire station
and park to Lyon County for a five year period with right of renewal.
The lease was subsequently renewed for five years until July 24, 1994,
at which time the lease expired and was not renewed. The classification
no longer serves any purpose; accordingly, pursuant to section 7 of the
Taylor Grazing Act (48 Stat. 1272) and the authority delegated by
Appendix 1 of the Bureau of Land Management 1203 Manual, the
aforementioned Recreation and Public Purposes classification is hereby
terminated.
At 10:00 a.m. on November 30, 1995, the above described land will
become open to the operation of the public land laws generally, subject
to valid existing rights, the provisions of existing withdrawals, and
the requirements of applicable laws, rules and regulations.
At 10:00 a.m. on November 30, 1995, the above described land will
become open to location under the United States mining laws.
Appropriation of the land under the general mining laws prior to the
date and time of restoration is unauthorized. Any such attempted
appropriation, including attempted adverse possession under 30 U.S.C.
38, shall vest no rights against the United States. Acts required to
establish a location and to initiate a right of possession are governed
by State law where not in conflict with Federal law. The Bureau of Land
Management will not intervene in disputes between rival locators over
possessory rights since Congress has provided for such determination in
local courts.
This land has been and will remain open to the operation of the
Recreation and Public Purposes Act, and to leasing under the mineral
leasing laws.
Dated: November 13, 1995.
John O. Singlaub,
District Manager, Carson City.
