    SUMMARY: On January 31, 1996, the Cuba Regional Economic Development 
    Board (CREDB) filed an application for an airport lease pursuant to the 
    Act of May 24, 1928 (49 U.S.C. 211-214), as amended, for 127.82 acres 
    of public and acquired land located in Sandoval County, New Mexico. On 
    October 25, 1973, a previous airport lease (NMNM 18702) was issued for 
    approximately 127.82 acres which also encompassed the proposed lease 
    area. The land had been continuously leased for airport purposes until 
    October 25, 1993, when the lease expired. The proposed lease area is 
    described as follows:
    
    New Mexico Principal Meridian
    
    Public Land:
    T. 20 N., R. 1 W.,
        Sec. 20, E\1/2\SE\1/4\NE\1/4\ and SW\1/4\SE\1/4\NE\1/4\;
    Sec. 21, E\1/2\NW\1/4\NW\1/4\ and SW\1/4\NW\1/4\NW\1/4\.

        The area described contains approximately 127.82 acres.
    
    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The land is not required for any Federal 
    purposes. The lease is consistent with current Bureau planning for this 
    area and would be in the public interest. The lease when issued will be 
    subject to the provisions
    
    [[Page 20274]]
    
    of the Airport Act of May 24, 1928, and to all applicable regulations 
    of the Secretary of the Interior.
    
    DATES: On January 31, 1996, the date the application was filed, all the 
    above described lands were segregated from all forms of appropriation 
    under the public land laws (except for lease under the Airport Act of 
    May 24, 1928). The public lands were segregated from the operation of 
    the mining laws pending the issuance of such regulations as the 
    Secretary may prescribe. All of the above described lands remain open 
    to the operation of the mineral leasing laws, the material disposal 
    laws and the Geothermal Steam Act.
        Until June 20, 1996, interested parties may submit comments to
