    FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Becky Heick, Realty Specialist, Bureau

    Kemmerer, Wyoming 83101, 307-828-4506.
    
    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 
    right-of-way, WYW-96321, to WorldComm, Inc. for a fiber optic line.
        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.
    Jeff Rawson,
    Field Manager.
