Notice of Realty Action: 

Noncompetitive (Direct) Sale of Public 

Land in Garfield County, Utah 

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice of realty action. 

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land 

Management (BLM) is proposing a noncompetitive (direct) sale of a 5.27-acre 

parcel of public land in Garfield County, 

Utah, to Millard ‘‘Crockett’’ Dumas. The 

sale would resolve an inadvertent 

unauthorized use of public lands. The 

sale would be subject to the applicable 

provisions of the Federal Land Policy 

and Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA), 

as amended, and the BLM land sale 

regulations. The sale would be for no 

less than the appraised fair market value 

of $5,000. 

DATES: Interested parties must submit 

written comments no later than 

December 11, 2023. 

ADDRESSES: Mail written comments to 

BLM Kanab Field Office, Field Manager, 

669 South Highway 89A, Kanab, UT 

84741, or submit them online at https:// 

eplanning.blm.gov/eplanning-ui/

Brandon Johnson, Realty Specialist, 

BLM Utah State Office, phone: (435)

Individuals in the United States who are 

deaf, deafblind, hard of hearing, or have 

a speech disability may dial 711 (TTY, 

TDD, or TeleBraille) to access 

telecommunications relay services. 

Individuals outside the United States 

should use the relay services offered 

within their country to make 

international calls to the point-ofcontact in the United States. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

1970s, the adjacent landowner 

misinterpreted the boundary of their 

private property and inadvertently built 

flood retention structures, corrals, and a 

barn that encroached onto what is now 

an isolated parcel of public land. Mr. 

Dumas later purchased the private 

property and has nominated the public 

land parcel for direct sale. The parcel is 

only accessible through Mr. Dumas’ 

property. The BLM proposes to offer the 

land for direct sale to resolve the issue. 

The following described public land 

in Garfield County has been examined 

and found suitable for sale under the 

authority of Sections 203 and 209 of 

FLPMA, as amended: 

Salt Lake Meridian, Utah 

T. 35 S., R. 3 E., 

Sec. 5, parcel A. 

The area described contains 5.27 

acres, according to the official plat of 

survey of the said land, on file with the 

BLM. 

The proposed sale conforms with the 

BLM Kanab Field Office Resource 

Management Plan, approved in October 

2008. There is no known mineral value 

in the parcel, so the mineral estate 

would also be conveyed, in accordance 

with Section 209 of FLPMA. The lands 

are identified as available for disposal 

and listed by the legal description in 

Appendix D on page A5–1. A parcelspecific environmental assessment (EA), 

document number DOI–BLM–UT– 

P020–2022–0013–EA, was prepared in 

connection with this realty action and 

may be viewed at https://

eplanning.blm.gov/eplanning-ui/ 

project/2020901/510. 

The land is suitable for direct sale 

under FLPMA, without competition, 

consistent with 43 CFR 2711.3–3(a)(4), 

as direct sales may be used ‘‘when in 

the opinion of the authorized officer, a 

competitive sale is not appropriate and 

the public interest would best be served 

by a direct sale[,]’’ including when ‘‘the 

adjoining ownership pattern and access 

indicate a direct sale is appropriate[.]’’ 

The parcel is only accessible through 

Mr. Dumas’ private property, and no 

other potential bidder currently has 

legal access to this parcel. It is also 

suitable for direct sale consistent with 

43 CFR 2711.3–3(a)(5) because there is 

a need to resolve an inadvertent and 

unauthorized use of public lands, which 

are encumbered by privately 

constructed improvements. 

Pursuant to the requirements of 43 

CFR 2711.1–2(d), publication of this 

notice in the Federal Register will 

segregate the land from all forms of 

appropriation under the public land 

laws, including the mining laws, except 

for the sale provisions of FLPMA. Until 

completion of the sale, the BLM will no 

longer accept land use applications 

affecting this public land. The 

segregative effect will terminate upon 

issuance of a patent, publication in the 

Federal Register of termination of the 

segregation, or on October 27, 2025, 

unless extended by the BLM Utah State 

Director in accordance with 43 CFR 

2711.1–2(d) prior to the termination 

date. 

The conveyance document, if issued, 

will include the following terms, 

covenants, conditions, and reservations: 

1. A reservation to the United States 

for ditches and canals constructed by 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
73870 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 207 / Friday, October 27, 2023 / Notices 

the authority of the United States under 

the Act of Aug. 30, 1890; 

2. Valid existing rights issued prior to 

conveyance; 

3. An appropriate indemnification 

clause protecting the United States from 

claims arising out of the purchaser’s 

use, occupancy, or operations on the 

conveyed lands; 

4. Additional terms and conditions 

that the authorized officer deems 

appropriate. 

The EA, appraisal, maps, mineral 

potential report, and environmental site 

assessment are available for review at 

the location listed in the ADDRESSES

section earlier. Interested parties may 

submit, in writing, any comments 

concerning the sale, including 

notifications of any encumbrances or 

other claims relating to the parcel (see 

ADDRESSES). 

The BLM Utah State Director will 

review adverse comments regarding the 

parcel and may sustain, vacate, or 

modify this realty action, in whole or in 

part. In the absence of timely objections, 

this realty action will become the final 

determination of the Department of the 

Interior. 

In addition to publication in the 

Federal Register, the BLM will also 

publish this notice in the Insider 

newspaper, once a week, for three 

consecutive weeks. 

Before including your address, phone 

number, email address, or other 

personal identifying information in your 

comments, the BLM will make your 

entire comment—including your 

personal identifying information— 

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.
