on a competitive basis. If another 

member of the public is selected as the 

highest bidder and fails to submit 

payment within 180 days of the sale, the 

parcel may again be offered on a 

competitive basis. 

The parcel is described as follows: 

Boise Meridian, Idaho 

T. 7 N., R. 25 E., section 30, lots 13, 14 and 

15. 

The area described contains 103.88 acres, 

more or less. The market value, not less than 

the current fair market value, utilizing 

modified competitive bid sale procedures, is 

yet to be determined by Department of the 

Interior appraisal. 

The patent, when issued, will contain 

a reservation to the United States for 

ditches and canals under the authority 

of the United States pursuant to the Act 

of August 30, 1890, 26 Stat. 391 (43 

U.S.C. 945). No warranty of any kind, 

express or implied, is given by the 

United States as to title, whether or to 

what extent the land may be developed, 

its physical condition, future uses, or 

any other circumstance or condition. 

The conveyance of the parcel will not be 

on a contingency basis. However, to the 

extent required by law, the parcel is 

subject to the requirements of section 

120(h) of the Comprehensive 

Environmental Response, Compensation 

and Liability Act, (42 U.S.C. 9620(h)) 

(CERCLA), as amended by the 

Superfund Amendments and 

Reauthorization Act (SARA) of 1988, 

(100 Stat. 1670). Notice is hereby given 

that the above-described lands have 

been examined and no evidence was 

found to indicate any hazardous 

substances had been stored for one year 

or more, nor had any hazardous 

substances been disposed of or released 

on the subject property. 

A mineral potential report will be 

completed by the BLM prior to the 

execution of the sale. If the report 

concludes the subject parcel contains 

minerals of value they shall be reserved 

to the United States. If the report 

determines the subject parcel contains 

no known mineral values, mineral 

interests will be conveyed 

simultaneously with the surface. A 

separate non-refundable filing fee of 

$50.00 is required from the purchaser 

for the conveyance of the mineral 

interest. 

Upon publication of this notice in the 

Federal Register, the land described 

above will be segregated from 

appropriation under the public land 

laws, including the general mining laws. 

The segregation will end upon issuance 

of patent or other documents of 

conveyance for such lands, upon 

publication in the Federal Register of a 

termination of the segregation, or May 

26, 2009, whichever occurs first, unless 

extended by the BLM State Director in 

accordance with 43 CFR 2611.2(a), prior 

to the termination date. 

Comments must be received by the 

BLM Challis Field Manager, Idaho Falls 

District Office, at the address stated 

above, on or before the date noted in the 

DATES section above. Any adverse 

comments will be reviewed by the Idaho 

Falls District Manager, who 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. The land will not be offered for 

sale until at least 60 days after the date 

of publication of this notice in the 

Federal Register. The BLM may accept 

or reject any or all offers, or withdraw 

any land or interest in the land from 

sale, if, in the opinion of the authorized 

officer, consummation of the sale would 

not be fully consistent with FLPMA, or 

other applicable laws.

The BLM petition/application has been 

approved by the Assistant Secretary of the 

Interior. Therefore it constitutes a withdrawal

The purpose of the withdrawal would be

lands newly acquired in the Emerald 

Mountain Land Exchange and achieve the 

management objectives of the BLM Little 

Snake Field Office Resource Management 

Plan Amendment. 

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

or cooperative agreement would not 

adequately constrain non-discretionary uses 

that could irrevocably affect the resource 

values of the described lands. 

There are no suitable alternative sites, as 

the described lands contain the resource 

values that need protection. 

No water rights would be needed to fulfill 

the purpose of the requested withdrawal. 

The potential for mineral development on 

the described lands is low. 

Records relating to the proposed 

withdrawal can be examined by contacting 

John Beck at the above address or phone 

number. 

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 

withdrawal may present their views in 

writing to the BLM Colorado State Director 

at the address listed above. 

Comments, including names and street 

addresses of respondents, will be available 

for public review at the BLM Colorado State 

Office at the address listed during regular 

business hours, 7:45 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., 

Monday through Friday, except holidays. 

Individual respondents may request 

confidentiality. 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. 

Notice is hereby given that an opportunity 

for a public meeting is afforded in connection 

with the proposed withdrawal. All interested 

persons who desire a public meeting for the 

purpose of being heard on the proposed 

withdrawal must submit a written request to 

the BLM Colorado State Director at the 

address listed above within 90 days from the 

date of publication of this notice. If the 

authorized officer determines a public 

meeting will be held, a notice of the time and 

place will be published in the Federal 

Register and a local newspaper at least 30 

days before the scheduled date of the 

meeting. 

Licenses, permits, cooperative agreements, 

and other discretionary land use 

authorizations may be allowed with the 

approval of an authorized officer of the BLM 

during the segregative period. 

This withdrawal proposal will be 

processed in accordance with the regulations 

set forth in 43 CFR 2300. 

For a period of 2 years from the date of 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register, the lands will be segregated as 

specified above unless the application is 

denied or cancelled or the withdrawal is 

approved prior to that date.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: MMS

Environmental Assessments are used as 

a basis for determining whether or not 

approval of the proposals constitutes 

major Federal actions that significantly 

affect the quality of the human 

environment in the sense of NEPA 

Section 102(2)(C). A FONSI is prepared 

in those instances where MMS finds 

that approval will not result in
