Oregon. Direct sale procedures are authorized under 43 CFR 2711.3-3.
The land will be offered for direct sale at 10:00 am PST, on May 18,

The written bid must be accompanied by a certified check, postal money
order, bank draft or cashier's check, made payable to the Department of
the Interior-BLM for not less than the bid deposit specified in this
notice.
The total purchase price for the land shall be paid within 180 days
of the date of sale or the bid deposit will be forfeited and the parcel
withdrawn from further sale consideration.
The terms, conditions and reservations applicable to the sale are
as follows:
(1) Patent to the sale parcel will contain a reservation to the
United States for ditches and canals.
(2) The sale parcel will be subject to all valid existing rights of
record at the time of patent issuance.
(3) The mineral interests being offered for conveyance with sale
parcel OR 53809 have no known value. A deposit or bid to purchase the

United States.
The above mineral reservations are being made in accordance with
Section 209 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976.

payment a non-refundable $50.00 filing fee for conveyance of the

years of age or older, a state or state instrumentality authorized to
hold property, or a corporation authorized to own real estate in the
state in which the land is located.
Detailed information concerning the sale, including the

environmental documentation, is available at the Lakeview District
Office, P.O. Box 151, 1000 South Ninth Street, Lakeview, Oregon 97630.
