Proposed Classification Decision, State Indemnity Selection
The Utah State School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration
has filed a petition for classification and application to acquire the
public lands, including the mineral estate, described below, under the
provisions of Act of Congress of August 17, 1958 (72 Stat. 928) as
amended, and the acts supplementary and amendatory thereto. This
application has been assigned Serial Number UTU-76188.
The Bureau of Land Management will examine these lands for evidence
of prior valid existing rights or other statutory constraints that
would bar transfer. This proposed classification is pursuant to Title
43, CFR 2400; and Section 7 of the Act of June 28, 1934.
Information concerning these lands and the proposed transfer to the
State of Utah may be obtained from the Bureau of Land Management,
Richfield District Office, 150 East 900 North, Richfield, Utah 84701.
For a period of 60 days from the date of publication of this notice
in the Federal Register, all persons who wish to submit comments,
suggestions, or objections in connection with the proposed
classification may present their views in writing to the State
Director, Bureau of Land Management, 324 South State Street, P.O. Box
45155, Salt Lake City, Utah 84145-0155.
Any adverse comments will be evaluated by the State Director who
will issue a notice of determination to proceed with, modify, or cancel
the action. In the absence of any action by the State Director, this
classification action will become the final determination of the
Department of the Interior.
As provided by Title 43 CFR 2450.4(c), public hearing may be
scheduled by the State Director if he determines that sufficient public
interest exists to warrant the time and expense of a hearing.
The lands included in the proposed classification are located
within Garfield County, Utah, and are described as follows:
Salt Lake Meridian, Utah
T. 36 S., R. 11 E.,
Section 15: All
Section 29: W\1/2\SW\1/4\, SE\1/4\SW\1/4\, W\1/2\SE\1/4\
T. 37 S., R. 11 E.,
Section 5: All.
Containing 1480 acres.
Individuals and corporations holding valid leases, permits, and/or
rights-of-way on the public lands described above have been or will be
notified of the proposed classification. Rights-of-way granted by the
Bureau of Land Management on the above lands will transfer with the
land, the transfer document will be subject to the rights-of-way, or
the rights-of-way may be reserved to the United States (see Section 508
of FLPMA). Oil and gas leases (geothermal, other leasing act minerals)
will remain in effect under the terms and conditions of the lease.
(Upon expiration or termination of the leases, or any authorized
extensions thereof, such rights shall automatically vest in the State.)
State law and School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration
procedures provide for the offering to holders of Bureau of Land
Management grazing permits, licenses, or leases the first right to
lease lands that are transferred to the State. This Classification
notice constitutes official notice to holders of grazing use
authorizations from the Bureau of Land Management that such
authorizations will be terminated in part upon transfer of the land
described above to the State of Utah.
For a period of 45 days from the date of first publication
indicated below, persons asserting a claim to or interest in the
described lands, other than holders of leases, permits, or rights-of-
way may file such claim with the State Director, Bureau of Land
Management, 324 South State Street, P.O. Box 45155, Salt Lake City,
Utah 84145-0155, with evidence that a copy thereof has been served on
the State of Utah, School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration.
Dated: July 2, 1998.
G. William Lamb,
State Director.
