from date of this publication in the Federal Register. The segregative
affect will terminate upon issuance of the lease or patent to the City
of Farmington, or two (2) years from the date of this publication,
whichever occurs first.
The lease, when issued, will be subject to the following terms:
1. Provisions of the Recreation and Public Purposes Act and to all
applicable regulations of the Secretary of the Interior.
2. Provisions of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976
(RCRA) as amended, 42 U.S.C. 6901-6987 and the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA)
as amended, 42 U.S.C. 9601 and all applicable regulations.

The patent, when issued, will be subject to the following terms:
1. Reservation the United States of a right-of-way for ditches and
canals in accordance with 43 U.S.C. 945.
2. Reservation to the United States of all minerals.
3. All valid existing rights, e.g. rights-of-way and leases of
record.
4. Provisions that if the patentee or its successor attempts to
transfer title to or control over the land to another or the land is
devoted to a use other than that for which the land was conveyed,
without the consent of the Secretary of the Interior or his delegate,
or prohibits or restricts, directly or indirectly, or permits its
agents, employees, contractors, or subcontractors, including without
limitation, lessees, sublessees and permittees), to prohibit or
restrict, directly or indirectly, the use of any part of the patented
lands or any of the facilities whereon by any person because of such
person's race, creed, color, or national origin, title shall revert to
the United States.
The lands are not needed for Federal purposes. Leasing and later
patenting is consistent with current Bureau of Land Management policies
and land use planning. The estimated intended time of lease issuance is
February 15, 1995, with the patent being issued upon substantial
development taking place. The proposal serves the public interest
because it would provide additional land necessary to expand a law
enforcement officers' training facility to accommodate additional
classroom areas and instructional areas for the officers and other
publics.
