SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The BLM has examined and found suitable to 
be classified for lease and subsequent conveyance under the provisions 
of the R&PP Act, as amended (43 U.S.C. 869 et seq.), the following 
public land described below.

Boise Meridian

T. 3 N., R. 3 W.,
    Sec. 15, lots 2 and 3.

    The area described contains 29.57 acres, more or less, in Canyon 
County.

    In accordance with the R&PP Act, the City of Caldwell filed an 
application to purchase the above-described property to develop as a 
public park. Additional detailed information pertaining to this 
application, plan of development, and site plans are in case file IDI 
36028, located in the BLM Four Rivers Field Office at the address 
above. The land is not needed for any Federal purpose. Lease and 
subsequent sale of this land is consistent with the BLM Cascade 
Resource Management Plan dated July 1, 1988, as amended, and would be 
in the public interest. The City of Caldwell has not applied for more 
than 6,400 acres for recreation uses in a year, the limit set in 43 CFR 
2741.7(a)(3), and has submitted a statement in compliance with the 
regulations at 43 CFR 2741.4(b). Any lease and subsequent sale will be 
subject to the provisions of the R&PP Act and applicable regulations of 
the Secretary of the Interior. Any lease or patent of this land will 
also contain the following reservations to the United States:
    1. Provisions of the R&PP Act, including, but not limited to, the 
terms required by 43 CFR 2741.9.
    2. A right-of-way thereon for ditches and canals constructed by the 
authority of the United States, Act of August 30, 1890 (43 U.S.C. 945); 
and
    3. All mineral deposits in the land so patented, and to it, or 
persons authorized by it, the right to prospect for, mine, and remove 
such deposits from the same under applicable law and regulations to be 
established by the Secretary of the Interior.
    Any lease or sale will also be subject to valid existing rights; 
will contain any terms or conditions required by law or regulation, 
including, but not limited to, any terms or conditions required by 43 
CFR 2741.9; and will contain an appropriate indemnification clause 
protecting the United States from claims arising out of the lessee's or 
patentee's use, occupancy, or operations on the leased or patented 
lands. It will also contain any other terms or conditions deemed 
necessary or appropriate by the authorized officer. As of January 12, 
2010, the above-described land is segregated from appropriation under 
the public land laws, including the United States mining laws, except 
for lease and sale under the R&PP Act.
    Public Comments: Interested parties may submit comments involving 
the suitability of the land for a public park. Comments on the 
classification are restricted to whether the land is physically suited 
for the proposal, whether the use will maximize future 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. Interested 
parties may also submit comments regarding the specific use proposed in 
the application and plan of development, whether the BLM followed 
proper administrative procedures in reaching its decision, or any other 
factor not directly related to the suitability of the land for R&PP 
use.
    Before including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or 
other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be 
aware that your entire comment--including your personal identifying 
information--may be made publicly available at any time. While you can 
ask us in your comment to withhold your personal identifying 
information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be 
able to do so.
    Any adverse comments on the proposed classification, lease and sale 
will be reviewed by the BLM Idaho State Director, who may sustain, 
vacate, or modify this realty action and classification and issue a 
final determination. In the absence of any objections, the 
classification of the land described in this notice will become 
effective on March 15, 2010. The lands will not be available for lease 
and conveyance until after the classification becomes effective.

Michael O'Donnell,
Acting Four Rivers Field Manager.
