        The areas described aggregate approximately 22,087 acres in 
    Grand, Cleer Creek, Summit and Eagle Counties. This application 
    excludes any patented lands within the described areas.
    
        The purpose of this withdrawal is to allow the Forest Service 
    administrative alternatives in managing these lands.
        For a period of 90 days from the date of publication of this 
    notice, all parties who wish to submit comments, suggestions, or 
    objections in connection with this proposed withdrawal may present 
    their views in writing to the Colorado State Director. A public meeting 
    will be scheduled and held. The public meeting will be conducted in 
    accordance with 43 CFR 2310.3-1(c)(2). Notice of the public meeting 
    will be published in the Federal Register.
        This application will be processed in accordance with the 
    regulations set forth in 43 CFR Part 2310.
        For a period of two years from the date of publication in the 
    Federal Register, this land will be segregated from the mining laws as 
    specified above unless the application is denied or cancelled or the 
    withdrawal is approved prior to that date. During this period the 
    Forest Service will continue to manage these lands.
