Application for Conveyance of Mineral Interest; Montana

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is given that, pursuant to section 209b of the Federal 
Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1719(b)), Ms. Anne M. 
Moreland and Mr. John L. Mayer have applied to purchase the mineral 
estate described as follows:

Principal Meridian, Montana
T. 5 S., R. 17 E., sec. 30, lots 3 and 4.
Containing 81.55 acres, more or less.

    The mineral interest will be conveyed in whole or in part upon 
favorable mineral examination.
    The purpose is to allow consolidation of surface and subsurface 
mineral ownership where there are no known mineral values or in those 
instances where the United States mineral reservation interferes with 
or precludes appropriate nonmineral development and such development is 
a more beneficial use of the land than the mineral development.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tami Lorenz, Legal Instruments 
Examiner, BLM Montana State Office, P.O. Box 36800, Billings, Montana 
59107, 406-255-2846.
