parcel of land encompassing 4.82 acres in Piute County by non-
competitive direct sale to Audrey Roth, pursuant to Section 203 of the 
Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976. The land has been 
determined suitable for disposal by sale in the BLM Richfield Field 
Office Resource Management Plan approved in October 2008.

sale to the address noted below. Comments must be in writing and must 
be received no later than March 29, 2010. The land will not be offered 
for sale until at least April 12, 2010.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to the Associate Field 
Manager, BLM Richfield Field Office, 150 East 900 North, Richfield, 
Utah 84701.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Nancy DeMille, BLM Richfield Field 
Office Realty Specialist, (435) 896-1515.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 4.82-acre parcel proposed for sale is 
located approximately 2 miles southwest of Marysvale Town and is 
legally described as:

Salt Lake Meridian

T. 27 S., R. 4 W.,
    Sec. 26, lot 4.

    The area described contains 4.82 acres in Piute County.

    In accordance with 43 CFR 2711.3-3(a)(5), direct sale procedures 
are appropriate when there is a need to resolve inadvertent 
unauthorized use or occupancy of the land. The land has been improved 
and used by the Roth family for residential purposes for many years. 
Improvements include a residential cabin and associated utilities and 
access.
    The parcel is being offered to Audrey Roth of Piute County, Utah, 
for no less than the appraised fair market value of $55,000. Ms. Roth 
will be allowed 30 days from receipt of a written offer to submit 
either the full payment or at least 20 percent of the appraised value 
of the parcel and 180 days thereafter to submit the balance. Failure to 
meet conditions established for this sale will void the direct sale and 
any monies received will be forfeited.
    The October 2008 BLM Richfield Field Office Resource Management 
Plan identifies this parcel of public land as suitable for disposal 
through sale, and it has been determined that no significant resource 
values will be affected by disposal of the parcel. The land is not 
required for any Federal purpose.
    The following rights, reservations, and conditions will be included 
in the patent that may be issued for the above described parcel of 
land:
    1. A reservation to the United States for 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 reservation to the United States for all minerals in the land 
in accordance with Section 209 of the Federal Land Policy and 
Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1719).
    3. A reservation to the United States for the road right-of-way 
under 44 L.D. 513 (UTU-25688) 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.
    4. The patent will include a notice and indemnification statement 
under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and 
Liability Act. The parcel is subject to the requirements of Section 
120(h) (42 U.S.C. Section 9620) holding the United States harmless from 
any release of hazardous materials that may have occurred as a result 
of the unauthorized use of the property by other parties. No warranty 
of any kind, express or implied, is given by the United States as to 
the title, physical condition or potential uses of the parcel of land 
proposed for sale.
    5. Subject to such rights as Marysvale Town or its successors in 
interest may have for culinary water system storage tank, pipeline and 
access road purposes pursuant to right-of-way UTU-83158, including the 
right to increase the term of the right-of-way to a perpetual term in 
accordance with 43 CFR 2807.15.
    6. Subject to such rights as Bullion Creek Irrigation or its 
successors in interest may have for roadway, pipeline and ditch

    Detailed information concerning the sale, including the appraisal, 
planning and environmental documents, and mineral report is available 
for review at the BLM Richfield Field Office at the address noted 
above.
    On February 10, 2010, the above described land will be segregated 
from all forms of appropriation under the public land laws, including 
location and entry under the United States mining laws, except the sale 
provisions of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 
U.S.C. 1713). The BLM is no longer accepting land use applications 
affecting the identified public land. The effect of segregation will 
terminate upon: (1) Issuance of a patent; (2) publication in the 
Federal Register of a termination of the segregation; or (3) on 
February 10, 2012, unless extended by the BLM State Director in 
accordance with 43 CFR 2711.1-2(d) prior to the termination date. 
Audrey Roth will be allowed 30 days from receipt of a written offer to 
submit either full payment or at least 20 percent of the appraised 
value of the parcel and within 180 days, thereafter, submit the 
balance. If the balance of the purchase price is not received within 
the 180 days, the deposit will be forfeited to the United States and 
the parcel withdrawn from sale.

including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or other personal 
identifying information in your comments, you should be aware that your 
entire comment--including your personal identifying information--may be

may sustain, vacate, or modify this realty action. In the absence of 
any objections, or adverse comments, this proposed realty action will 
become the final determination of the Department of the Interior.
