SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Bureau of Land Management proposes to
sell the surface estate of the above land to Mr. Gino Foianini, an
adjacent landowner, by direct sale, at fair market value. The disposal
of this land will resolve an inadvertent trespass.
The proposed sale is consistent with the Kemmerer Resource Area
Management Plan and would serve important public objectives which
cannot be achieved prudently or feasibly elsewhere. The lands contain
no significant public values. The planning document and environmental
assessment covering the proposed sale are available for review at the
Bureau of Land Management, Kemmerer Field Office, Kemmerer, Wyoming.
Conveyance of the above public lands will be subject to:
1. Reservation of a right-of-way to the United States for ditches
and canals pursuant to the Act of August 30, 1890, 43 U.S.C. 945.
2. Reservation of all minerals pursuant to section 209(a) of the
Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, 43 U.S.C. 1719.
3. Existing rights of record including a right-of-way, WYE-02679,
to Austin Reservoir and Canal for irrigation facilities; a right-of-
way, WYE-016891, to Questar Gas Pipeline Company for an oil and gas
pipeline; a right-of-way, WYC-063968, to Amoco Pipeline Company for an
oil and gas pipeline; right-of-way, WYW-017230, to Pioneer Pipeline
Company for an oil and gas pipeline; a right-of-way, WYW-77832, to
Frontier Pipeline Company for an oil and gas pipeline; a right-of-way,
WYW-88849, to Union Telephone Company for a telephone line; and a

Pursuant to the authority contained in Section 4 of Executive Order
11990 dated May 24, 1977 (42 FR 26961), and the Federal Land Policy and
Management Act of 1976, 43 U.S.C. 1713, 1718, 1719, this sale will be
subject to a permanent restriction which constitutes a covenant running
with the land for the purpose of protecting and preserving a wetland
area. The land may not be used for the construction or placement of any
buildings, structures, facilities, or other improvements, including
fences, and that ``new construction'' on the land as defined in Section
7(b) of Executive Order 11990 is prohibited. The restriction applies to
1.4 acres, located in the S\1/2\SE\1/4\SW\1/4\SE\1/4\ of section 11, T.
16 N., R. 115 W.
There will be a decrease of 40 federal acres within the Upper Ranch
Allotment. The four AUMs associated with the 40 acre parcel will be
transferred from federal ownership to private ownership. Mr. Gino
Foianini has signed a waiver allowing for cancellation of the four
federal AUMs from his grazing permit.
Upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register, the above
described land will be segregated from all forms of appropriation under
the public land laws, including the general mining laws, except for
leasing under the mineral leasing laws.
For a period of 45 days after issuance of this notice, interested
parties may submit comments to the Field Manager, Kemmerer Field
Office, Bureau of Land Management, 312 Hwy. 189 North, Kemmerer, WY
83101. Any adverse comments will be evaluated by the State Director who
may sustain, vacate, or modify this realty action. In the absence of
any objections, this proposed realty action will become final.
Dated: February 5, 1999.

Field Manager.
