Upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register, the lands

the future use or uses of the land, whether the use is consistent with
local planning and zoning, or if the use is consistent with State and
Federal programs.
Application Comments

application and plan or development, whether the BLM followed proper
administrative procedures in reaching the decision, or any other factor
not directly related to the land for an elementary school site.
