Cancellation of Realty Action

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Cancellation of realty action.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Notice of Realty Action--Noncompetitive Sale of Federal Lands 
in Douglas County, Nevada--published in the Federal Register, Vol. 58, 
No. 67, Pg. 18413, on April 9, 1993, is hereby cancelled in its 
entirety.
    The federal lands had been found suitable for direct sale to 
accommodate private improvements on them, placed there as the result of 
an erroneous private survey. However, these lands were later determined 
to have some level of hazardous contamination, the result of past 
nearby mining and mineral processing. The transfer of the lands, under 
these conditions, was determined not to be in the interest of either 
the United States or the sale proponent. A private well and pipeline, 
on these federal lands, were authorized through the issuance of a 
right-of-way.

    Dated: July 24, 1996.
James M. Phillips,
Assistant District Manager. Non-Renewable Resources.
