Notice of Proposed Withdrawal 

Extension and Opportunity for Public 

Meeting; Wyoming 

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land 

Management (BLM) proposes to extend 

the duration of Public Land Order (PLO) 

No. 6650 for an additional 20-year term. 

PLO No. 6650 withdrew 20 acres of 

public lands from settlement, sale, 

location, and entry under the general 

land laws, including the mining laws, to 

protect the Sugarloaf Petroglyphs and 

Pine Spring Archeological Sites in 

Sweetwater County. This notice also 

gives an opportunity to comment on the 

proposed action and to request a public 

meeting. 

DATES: Comments and requests for a 

public meeting must be received by May 

24, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: Comments and meeting 

requests should be sent to the BLM 

Wyoming State Director, P.O. Box 1828, 

Cheyenne, Wyoming 82003–1828. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Janet Booth, BLM, Wyoming State 

Office, 307–775–6124 or at the above 

address. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

withdrawal created by PLO No. 6650 (52 

FR 23549) will expire on June 22, 2007, 

unless extended. The BLM has filed an 

application to extend PLO No. 6650 for 

an additional 20-year term. The 

withdrawal was made to protect 

important educational, scientific, 

cultural, and recreational values of the 

Sugarloaf Petroglyphs and Pine Spring 

Archeological Sites, on public lands 

described as follows. 

Sixth Principal Meridian 

T. 14 N., R. 107 W., 

Sec. 27, E1⁄2NW1⁄4SE1⁄4NW1⁄4. 

T. 14 N., R. 109 W., 

Sec. 19, S1⁄2SW1⁄4SW1⁄4SE1⁄4; 

Sec. 30, NW1⁄4NW1⁄4NE1⁄4. 

The areas described aggregate 20 acres in 

Sweetwater County. 

The purpose of the proposed 

extension is to continue the withdrawal 

created by PLO No. 6650 for an 

additional 20-year term to protect the 

educational, scientific, cultural, and 

recreational values of the Petroglyphs 

and Pine Spring Archeological Sites. 

The use of a right-of-way, interagency, 

or cooperative agreement would not 

adequately constrain nondiscretionary 

uses which could result in permanent 

loss of significant values and 

irreplaceable resources at the sites. 

There are no suitable alternative sites 

since the lands described herein contain 

the resource values that need protection. 

No water rights would be needed to 

fulfill the purpose of the requested 

withdrawal extension. 

Records relating to the application 

may be examined by contacting Janet 

Booth at the above address or 307–775–

6124. 

For a period of 90 days from the date 

of publication of this notice, all persons 

who wish to submit comments, 

suggestions, or objections in connection 

with the proposed extension may 

present their views in writing to the 

BLM Wyoming State Director at the 

address noted above. 

Comments, including names and 

street addresses of respondents, will be 

available for public review at the Rock 

Springs Field Office, 280 Highway 191 

North, Rock Springs, Wyoming, during 

regular business hours 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 

p.m. Monday through Friday, except 

holidays. Individual respondents may 

request confidentiality. If you wish to 

withhold your name or address from 

public review or from disclosure under 

the Freedom of Information Act, you 

must state this prominently at the 

beginning of your comments. Such 

requests will be honored 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. 

Notice is hereby given that an 

opportunity for a public meeting is 

afforded in connection with the 

proposed withdrawal extension. All 

interested persons who desire a public 

meeting for the purpose of being heard 

on the proposed extension must submit 

a written request to the BLM, Wyoming 

State Director within 90 days from the 

date of publication of this notice. If the 

authorized officer determines that a 

public meeting will be held, a notice of 

the time and place will be published in 

the Federal Register at least 30 days 

before the scheduled date of the 

meeting. 

This withdrawal extension proposal 

will be processed in accordance with 

the regulations set forth in 43 CFR 

2310.4.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background 

Section 101(c) of the Federal Mine 

Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine 

Act) allows the mine operator or 

representative of miners to file a 

petition to modify the application of any 

mandatory safety standard to a coal or 

other mine if the Secretary determines 

that an alternative method of achieving 

the result of such standard exists which 

will at all times guarantee no less than 

the same measure of protection afforded 

the miners of such mine by such 

standard, or that the application of such 

standard to such mine will result in a 

diminution of safety to the miners in 

such mine. In addition, the regulations 

at 30 CFR 44.10 and 44.11 establish the 

requirements and procedures for filing 

petitions for modifications. 

II. Petitions for Modification 

Docket Number: M–2006–080–C. 

Petitioner: Black Beauty Coal 

Company, 13101 Zeigler 11 Road, P.O. 

Box 369, Coulterville, Illinois 62237.

02408) located in Randolph County, 

Illinois. 

Regulation Affected: 30 CFR 

75.364(b)(1) (Weekly examination). 

Modification Request: The petitioner 

requests a modification of the existing 

standard to permit the use of evaluation 

points in the Main East, North Side 

Intake entries due to deteriorating roof 

conditions. The petitioner proposes to 

establish evaluation point one at the No. 

12 crosscut of the Main East, North Side 

Intake and the other evaluation point at 

the #50 crosscut of the Main East, North 

Side Intake. The petitioner states that by 

monitoring the evaluation points on the 

pre-shift, examinations will provide the 

proper information to assure that the 

ventilation controls are in place and 

functioning properly; the pre-shift 

examination will be conducted by 

certified persons and will consist of 

measuring ventilation quality and 

quantity; and the results of the 

examinations will be recorded in a book 

kept on the surface and readily available 

to interested parties. The petitioner 

asserts that the proposed alternative 

method will provide no less than the 

same measure of protection as the 

existing standard.

Petitioner: Oak Grove Resources, LLC, 

8800 Oak Grove Mine Road, Adger,

Modification Request: The petitioner 

requests a modification of the existing 

standard to permit the use of highvoltage non-permissible, submersible 

pumps in boreholes in an area of its 

mine where water has accumulated 

which is not on intake air. The 

petitioner states that the pumps will be 

located within the boreholes, the 

electrical components of the pump will 

always be separated from the mine 

atmosphere, and the pumps will be 

under water continuously. The 

petitioner proposes to use the specific 

procedures outlined in this petition for 

modification. Persons may review a 

complete description of the procedures 

at the MSHA address listed in this 

notice. The petitioner asserts that the

301 Market Street, Kittanning,
