County will be required to submit a nonrefundable application fee of
$50.00 in accordance with 43 CFR Subpart 2720, for conveyance of all
unreserved mineral interests in the lands.
The proposed sale is consistent with the Pinedale Resource Area

2. Reservation of oil and gas to the United States.
The public lands described above shall be segregated from all forms
of appropriation under the public land laws, including the mining laws,
upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register. The
segregative effect will end upon issuance of the patent or 270 days
from the date of the publication, whichever comes first.
For a period of forty-five (45) days from the date of issuance of
this notice, interested parties may submit comments to the Bureau of
Land Management, District Manager, Rock Springs, 280 Highway 191 North,
Rock Springs, Wyoming 82901. Any adverse comments will be evaluated by
