Notice of Realty Action; Nevada
AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, DOI.
ACTION: Direct sale of reversionary interest in previously patented
public land in Nye County, Nevada.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The following described land in Nye County, Nevada, patented
to the Nye County under provisions of the Recreation and Public
Purposes Act, as amended, has been examined and found suitable for
elimination of the reversionary clause in the patent, under provisions
of section 203 and section 209 of the Federal Land Policy and
Management Act (FLPMA) of October 21, 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1713 and 1719).
Mount Diablo Meridian, Nevada
T. 2 N., R. 42 E.,
Tract 37;
Consisting of 11.71 acres, more or less.
The above-described interest in the land would be conveyed directly
to the present owner of record, Nye County. This interest will not be
conveyed until at least 60 days after the date of
[[Page 36396]]
publication of this notice in the Federal Register.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kathy Sladish, Land Law Examiner,
Bureau of Land Management, Battle Mountain Field Office, 50 Bastian
Road, Battle Mountain, NV, 89820, (775) 635-4029.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The land was patented in 1990 for use as a
hospital, museum and senior garden. The patent (number 27-90-0147)
includes a clause providing for title to the land to revert to the
United States if the approved plan of development is not followed. The
land has been substantially altered to the point where management by
the Bureau of Land Management would not be feasible. The land is not
needed for any resource program and is not suitable for management by
another Federal department or agency. It would be difficult and
uneconomic to manage, if title reverted to the United States.
Nye County has requested full title to the subject parcel. This
application to purchase the reversionary interest of the United States
also constitutes an application for conveyance of the mineral
interests. The applicant will be required to submit a $50.00
nonrefundable filing fee for conveyance of the mineral interest.
Payment by Nye County of other fees associated with this transaction
will also be required.
Upon publication of this Notice of Realty Action in the Federal
Register, the lands will be segregated from all forms of appropriation
under the public land laws, including the mining laws, pursuant to
sections 203 and 209 of FLPMA. The segregation shall terminate upon
issuance of a supplemental patent or other document of conveyance, upon
publication in the Federal Register of a termination of segregation, or
270 days from date of this publication, which ever occurs first.
Patent, when issued, will contain the following reservations to the
United States:
1. A right-of-way for ditches and canals constructed by the
authority of the United States, Act of August 30, 1890, (43 U.S.C.
945);
2. A right-of-way for sewer line purposes, NEV-059832, and all
appurtenances thereto, constructed by the United States through, over,
or upon the land so patented, and the right of the United States, its
agents or employees, to maintain, operate, repair or improve the same
so long as needed or used for or by the United States.
And will be subject to:
1. Those rights for highway purposes granted to the Nevada Highway
Department, its successors or assigns, by right-of-way NEV-057876,
pursuant to the Act of August 27, 1958 (23 U.S.C. 317).
2. Those rights for power line purposes which have been granted to
Sierra Pacific Power Company, its successors or assigns, by right-of-
way N-4879, pursuant to the Act of March 4, 1911, as amended (formerly
U.S.C. 961).
3. Those rights for power line purposes which have been granted to
Sierra Pacific Power Company, its successors or assigns, by right-of-
way N-51997, pursuant to the Act of October 21, 1976, (43 U.S.C. 1761).
4. Those rights for power line purposes which have been granted to
Tonopah Public Utilities, its successors or assigns, by right-of-way N-
52046, pursuant to the Act of October 21, 1976, (43 U.S.C. 1761).
5. All other valid existing rights.
For a period of 45 days from the date of publication in the Federal
Register, interested parties may submit comments to the Field Manager,
Battle Mountain District, 50 Bastian Road, Battle Mountain, NV 89820.
Any adverse comments will be evaluated by the State Director, who may
sustain, vacate or modify this realty action and issue a final
determination. In the absence of timely filed objections, this realty
action will become a final determination of the Department of the
Interior.
Dated: June 24, 1999.
