SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Public Land Order 6839 used a metes and bounds land description for the encumbered land. Public Land Order 6839 as extended by Public Land Order No. 7760 corrected the land description to align with the dependent resurvey of U.S. Survey No. 5253, Alaska, officially filed July 14, 2010. This resurvey established lots 13 and 16 of U.S. Survey No. 5253, within T. 23 N. R. 18 W., Umiat Meridian as the lands encumbered by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration facility, and lots 14 and 15, of U.S. Survey No. 5253, within T. 23 N., R. 18 W., Umiat Meridian as the land encumbered by the United States Geological Survey facility. Further review revealed that an error had been made in the statement of acreage in Public Land Order No. 7760. This notice corrects that error.
