ACTION: Notice of realty action; sale of public land in Washakie

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has determined that the
lands described below are suitable for public sale by modified
competitive [[Page 20113]] sale procedures under sections 203 and 209
of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA) of 1976 (43
U.S.C. 1713, 1719). The BLM must receive fair market value for the land
sold and any bid for less than fair market value will be rejected. The
BLM may accept or reject any and all offers, or withdraw any land or
interest on the land for sale if the sale would not be consistent with
FLPMA or other applicable law. The lands are legally described as:
Sixth Principal Meridian
T. 47 N., R. 92 W.
Sec. 23, W1/2NE1/4SW1/4, NW\1/4\1/4SE\1/4\SW\1/4\.
The above land aggregates 30 acres more or less.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Karen Hepp, Range Management
Specialist or Charles F. Wilkie, Area Manager, Bighorn Basin Resource
Area, Bureau of Land Management, P.O. Box 119, Worland, Wyoming 82401-
0119 (307)347-9871.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Sale of the above land will be conducted by
modified competitive bidding. The land sale is subject to a preference
consideration to allow Timberline Feedlot Inc. to meet the high bid.
Timberline requires the land to expand their feedlot. A bid will also
constitute an application for conveyance of unreserved mineral estate,
excluding oil and gas resources. At the time of the sale, the bidder
will be required to pay a $50.00 nonreturnable filing fee (in addition
to their bid) for all unreserved mineral interests in accordance with
43 CFR Subpart 2720.
The public sale parcel is within livestock grazing allotment number
00034. The permittee holding the livestock grazing privileges in the
allotment has either signed a waiver on the two-year grazing notice or
is being served a two-year notice that the subject lands are being
excluded from the grazing allotment. The notice is being sent with a
copy of this Notice of Realty Action. Less than one animal unit of
forage is being lost and no reduction in grazing preference will be
required.
The proposed sale is consistent with the Washakie Resource
Management Plan and will serve an important public objective. The
proposed sale meets the sale criteria described in 43 CFR 2710.0-
3(a)(2).
The planning document, environmental assessment, and other relevant
information concerning the sale are available for review at the Bureau
of Land Management, Bighorn Basin Resource Area office, 101 South 23rd,
Worland, Wyoming.
Any patent issued will be subject to all valid existing rights.

pursuant to the Act of August 30, 1890, 43 U.S.C. 945.

of a notice of termination of segregation, whichever occurs first.
For a period of forty-five (45) days from the date of publication
of this notice in the Federal Register, interested parties may submit
comments to the District Manager, Worland District Office, Bureau of
Land Management, P.O. Box 119, Worland, Wyoming 82401-0119. Any adverse
