By virtue of the authority vested in the Secretary of the Interior
by the Recreation and Public Purposes Act of June 14, 1926, as amended;
43 U.S.C. 869; 869-4; it is ordered as follows:
1. Pursuant to the regulations in 43 CFR 2091.7-1(b)(1) and the
authority delegated to me by the BLM Manual section 1203 (48 FR 85),
the classification decision of October 2, 1978 which classified 40
acres of public land as suitable for recreation and public purposes
under the Act of June 14, 1926, as amended; 43 U.S.C. 869, 869-4; under
serial number WYW57848 is hereby revoked. The lands are described as
follows:
Sixth Principal Meridian, Wyoming
T. 49 N., R. 72 W.,
Sec. 12: NE\1/4\SW\1/4\
The area described contains 40 acres in Campbell County.
2. At 9 a.m. on March 22, 1994, the lands will be opened to the
operation of the public land laws generally, subject to valid existing
rights, the provisions of existing withdrawals, and the requirements of
applicable law. All valid applications received at or prior to 9 a.m.
on March 22, 1994, shall be considered as simultaneously filed at that
time. Those received thereafter shall be considered in the order of
filing.
3. At 9 a.m. on March 22, 1994 the lands will be opened to location
and entry under the United States mining laws. Appropriation of any of
the lands described in this order 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 determinations
in legal courts.
Dated: February 4, 1994.

Area Manager.
