( print page 42687)                        1719(b), for the purchase and conveyance of the federally-owned mineral interests in the land:                

## Gila and Salt River Base and Meridian

T. 15 S., R. 22 E., 

                        Sec. 28, SE                        1/4                        ;                     

                        Sec. 34, NW                        1/4                        ;                    

The area described contains 320 acres, more or less, in Cochise County.

Effective immediately, the BLM will process the pending application in accordance with the regulations stated in 43 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 2720. Written comments concerning the application must be received no later than the date specified above in this notice. The purpose of a purchase and conveyance is to allow consolidation of surface and subsurface minerals ownership (1) where there are no known mineral values or (2) in those instances where the Federal mineral interest reservation interferes with or precludes appropriate nonmineral development and such development is a more beneficial use of the land than the mineral development.

On August 24, 2009 the mineral interests owned by the United States in the above described land will be segregated to the extent that they will not be subject to appropriation under the public land laws, including the mining laws. The segregative effect shall terminate upon issuance of a patent or deed of such mineral interests; upon final rejection of the mineral conveyance application; or August 24, 2011, whichever occurs first.

If you wish to withhold your name or address from public review or from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act, you must clearly state this at the beginning of your written comment. 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. The BLM will honor requests for confidentiality on a case-by-case basis to the extent allowed by law. All submissions from organizations or businesses, and from individuals identifying themselves as representatives or officials of organizations or businesses, will be made available for public inspection in their entirety.
