This land is not required for any federal purposes. The sale is
consistent with current Bureau planning for this area and would be in
the public interest. In the event of a sale, conveyance of the
available mineral interests will occur simultaneously with the sale of
the land. The mineral interests being offered for conveyance have no
known mineral value. Acceptance of a direct sale offer will constitute
an application for conveyance of those mineral interests. The applicant
will be required to pay a $50.00 nonreturnable filing fee for the
conveyance of the available mineral interests.
The patent, when issued, will contain the following reservations to
the United States:
1. A right-of-way thereon for ditches and canals constructed by the
authority of the United States, Act of August 30, 1890 (43 U.S.C. 945).
2. All the oil and gas mineral deposits in the land subject to this
conveyance, including without limitation, the disposition of these
substances under the mineral leasing laws. Its permittee, licensees and
lessees, the right to prospect for, mine and remove the mineral owned
by the United States under applicable law and such regulations as the
Secretary of the Interior may prescribe. This reservation includes all
necessary and incidental activities conducted in accordance with the
provisions of the mineral leasing laws in effect at the time such
activities are undertaken, including, without limitation, necessary
access and exit rights, all drilling, underground, or surface mining
operation, storage and transportation facilities deemed necessary and
authorized under law and implementing regulations. Unless otherwise
provided by separate agreement with surface owner, permittee, licensees
and lessees of the United States shall reclaim disturbed areas to the
extent prescribed by regulations issued by the Secretary of the
Interior. All cause of action brought to enforce the rights of the
surface owner under the regulations above referred to shall be
instituted against permittee, licensees and lessees of the United
States; and the United States shall not be liable for the acts or
omissions of its permittee, licensees and lessees. Upon publication of
this notice in the Federal Register, the above described land will be
segregated from all other forms of appropriation under the public land
laws, including the general mining laws, except leasing under the
mineral leasing laws. This segregation will terminate upon issuance of
a patent or 270 days from the date of this publication, whichever
occurs first.
On or before April 1, 1996, interested parties may submit comments
regarding this action to the Area Manager, Egan Resource Area at the
address listed above. Any adverse comments will be reviewed by the
State Director who may sustain, vacate, or modify this realty action.
In absence of any adverse comments, this realty action will become the
final determination of the Department of the Interior. The Bureau of
Land Management may accept or reject any or all offers, or withdraw any
land or interest in the land from sale, if, in the opinion of the
authorized officer, consummation of the sale would not be fully
consistent with FLPMA, or other applicable laws. The lands will not be
offered for sale until at least 60 days after the date of publication
of this notice in the Federal Register.
Dated: February 1, 1996.
Gene A. Kolkman,
