Notice of Intent To Amend the Las 

Vegas Resource Management Plan and 

Prepare an Environmental 

Assessment; Notice of Segregation

Classification and Proposed Modified 

Competitive Sales of Public Land in 

Pahrump, Nye County, Nevada 

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management,

ACTION: Notice of Intent and Notice of 

Realty Action. 

SUMMARY: In compliance with section 

203 of the Federal Land Policy and 

Management Act (FLPMA), as amended, 

and the National Environmental Policy 

Act (NEPA) of 1969, as amended, the 

Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) 

Pahrump Field Office proposes to 

amend the 1998 Las Vegas Resource 

Management Plan (RMP) and prepare an 

Environmental Assessment (EA) to 

identify approximately 621 acres of 

public land for sale. The EA will also 

evaluate the proposed sale of these acres 

through two modified competitive 

sealed bid sales of public land for not 

less than the appraised fair market value 

(FMV). Publication of this notice in the 

Federal Register segregates the subject 

lands from all appropriation under the 

public land laws, including the general 

mining laws, and from the mineral 

leasing and geothermal leasing laws, 

except the sales provisions of FLPMA. 

DATES: Interested parties may submit 

written comments regarding the RMP 

Amendment during the 30-day scoping 

period initiated by publication of this 

notice in the Federal Register and 

ending August 29, 2018. Interested 

parties may submit written comments 

regarding the Notice of Realty Action for 

the proposed land sale during the 45- 

day comment period initiated by 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register, and ending September 13, 

2018. All dates related to the bid 

process are contained the 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Spring 

Mountain Raceway, LLC has requested 

that the BLM dispose of public land by 

direct sale or modified competitive sale 

within the Town of Pahrump for 

approximately 621 acres. The public 

land directly abuts property owned by 

Spring Mountain Raceway, LLC, along 

State Route 160 near Gamebird Road in 

Nye County. The Nye County Board of 

Commissioners supports the proposal. 

The BLM Pahrump Field Office intends 

to prepare an RMP amendment with an 

associated EA for the Las Vegas RMP. 

This Notice of Intent (NOI) includes a 

proposed two-phase modified 

competitive sealed bid sale, announces 

the beginning of the scoping process for 

the RMP amendment and a temporary 

segregation from appropriation under 

the public land laws, including the 

mining law, and mineral leasing and 

geothermal leasing laws, subject to valid 

existing rights. Because the Las Vegas 

RMP does not specifically include or 

identify the sale parcels for disposal, a 

land-use plan amendment is required. 

The proposed sales would be 

conducted in two phases, with phase 

one anticipated in January 2019 and 

phase two anticipated in the summer of 

2019. The first phase includes the 

proposed sale of approximately 553 

acres. The second phase includes the 

remaining 68 acres, which also require 

cadastral survey before they may be 

sold. When ready, the Draft RMP 

Amendment and EA will be available 

for a 30-day public comment period, on 

BLM’s website at https://go.usa.gov/ 

xn7nT and may be announced in local 

news outlets as well. Sealed bids for the 

phase-one modified competitive sale 

may be mailed or delivered to the BLM 

Pahrump Field Office, at the address 

above, beginning January 10, 2019 and 

ending January 17, 2019. Sealed bids 

must be received at the BLM Office no 

later than 4:30 p.m. Pacific Time on 

January 17, 2019. The BLM will open 

the sealed bids for the phase one sale on 

January 18, 2019 at the BLM Pahrump 

Field Office at 10 a.m. Pacific Time. 

Sealed bids for the phase-two modified 

competitive sale may be mailed or 

delivered to the BLM Pahrump Field 

Office, at the address below, beginning 

August 16, 2019. Sealed bids must be 

received no later than 4:30 p.m. Pacific 

Time, August 23, 2019, in accordance 

with the sale procedures. The BLM will 

open the sealed bids for the phase-two 

sale on August 30, 2019 at the BLM 

Pahrump Field Office at 10 a.m. Pacific 

Time. 

The segregation will terminate: (i) 

Upon publication in the Federal 

Register of a termination of the 

segregation; or (ii) At the end of two 

years from the date of this publication 

in the Federal Register, whichever 

occurs first. 

The purpose of the public scoping 

process is to determine relevant issues 

that will influence the scope of the 

environmental analysis, including 

alternatives, and to guide the planning 

process. The preliminary issue for the 

plan amendment and proposed disposal 

area identified by BLM personnel; 

Federal, state, and local agencies; and 

interested stakeholders is desert tortoise 

habitat. The public land proposed for 

sale directly abuts property owned by 

Spring Mountain Raceway, LLC, along 


daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 146 / Monday, July 30, 2018 / Notices 36619 

State Route 160 near Gamebird Road in 

Nye County. The land is described as: 

Mount Diablo Meridian, Nevada 

T. 20 S., R. 54 E., 

Sec. 27, SW1⁄4, that part lying outside of 

the utility corridor; 

Sec. 28, E1⁄2NE1⁄4NE1⁄4SW1⁄4, 

NE1⁄4SE1⁄4NE1⁄4SW1⁄4, 

S1⁄2SE1⁄4NE1⁄4SW1⁄4, NE1⁄4SE1⁄4SW1⁄4, 

E1⁄2SW1⁄4SE1⁄4SW1⁄4, SE1⁄4SE1⁄4SW1⁄4, and 

SE1⁄4; 

Sec. 34, lots 2, 3, and 4, those parts lying 

South of the utility corridor, lots 5 thru 8, 

NE1/4NW1/4, that part lying South the 

utility corridor, SE1⁄4NW1⁄4, and E1⁄2SW1⁄4. 

The area combined contains 

approximately 621 acres +/¥ according 

to the official plats of surveys of said 

land, on file with the BLM, and areas 

determined using GIS maps. 

The BLM determined that a modified 

competitive method of sale would be 

the appropriate method for disposal of 

these parcels. These sales meet the 

criteria found in 43 CFR 2710.0–3(a)(2) 

because these disposals serve important 

public objectives, including but not 

limited to, expansion of communities 

and economic development, which 

cannot be achieved prudently or 

feasibly on other lands. The authorized 

officer has identified Spring Mountain 

Raceway, LLC, as the designated bidder 

for these parcels. The use of the 

modified-competitive sale method is 

consistent with 43 CFR 2711.3–2(a) 

because the authorized officer has 

determined it is necessary in order to 

assure equitable distribution of land 

among purchasers or to recognize 

equitable considerations or public 

policies. 

Only written comments will be 

considered properly filed. Submit 

comments to the address in the 

ADDRESSES section. Before including 

your address, phone number, email 

address, or other personally identifiable 

information in your comment, you 

should be aware that your entire 

comment—including your personally 

identifiable information—may be made 

publicly available at any time. While 

you can ask the BLM in your comment 

to withhold your personally identifiable 

information from public review, we 

cannot guarantee that we will be able to 

do so. 

Information concerning the sales, 

appraisals, reservations, sale procedures 

and conditions, Comprehensive 

Environmental Response, 

Compensation, and Liability Act 

(CERCLA) of 1980, maps delineating the 

proposed sale parcels, mineral potential 

report, the EA, and other environmental 

documents will be available for review 

at the BLM Pahrump Field Office, or by 

calling (702) 515–5000, and asking to 

speak to a member of the Pahrump 

Realty Team. 

In accordance with 43 CFR 2710.0– 

6(c)(3)(ii) and 43 CFR 2711.3–2(a)(1)(i), 

modified competitive sale procedures 

are appropriate to protect on-going uses 

and to assure compatibility of the 

possible uses with adjacent lands. 

Conveyance of the sale parcels will be 

subject to valid existing rights and 

encumbrances of record, including, but 

not limited to, rights-of-way (ROW) for 

roads and public utilities. The patents 

will include appropriate 

indemnification clauses protecting the 

United States from claims arising out of 

the patentee’s use occupancy or 

occupations on the patented lands. No 

warranty of any kind, express or 

implied, is given by the United States as 

to the title, physical condition, or 

potential uses of the parcels of land 

proposed for sale. The Pahrump Field 

Office will also publish a copy of this 

notice once a week for three consecutive 

weeks in the Pahrump Valley Times 

prior to both the phase-one and phasetwo sales. 

Segregation: Publication of this notice 

in the Federal Register segregates the 

subject lands from all appropriations 

under the public land laws, including 

the general mining laws and from the 

mineral leasing and geothermal leasing 

laws, except sale under FLPMA. The 

segregation will terminate: (i) Upon 

publication in the Federal Register of a 

termination of the segregation; or (ii) At 

the end of two years from the date of 

this publication in the Federal Register, 

whichever occurs first. On publication 

of this notice and until completion of 

the sales, the BLM is no longer 

accepting land-use applications 

affecting the parcels identified for sale. 

However, land-use applications may be 

considered after completion of the 

phase-two sale if the parcels are not 

sold. The parcels may be subject to 

land-use applications received prior to 

publication of this notice if processing 

the application would have no adverse 

effect on the marketability of title, or the 

FMV of the parcels. Encumbrances of 

record that may appear in the BLM 

public files for the parcels proposed for 

sale are available for review during 

business hours, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., 

Pacific Time, Monday through Friday at 

the BLM Pahrump Field Office except 

during Federally recognized holidays. 

The parcels are subject to limitations 

prescribed by law and regulation, and 

prior to patent issuances, a holder of 

any ROW within the parcels may be 

given the opportunity to amend the 

ROW for conversion to a new term, 

including perpetuity, if applicable, or an 

easement. In accordance with 

regulations at 43 CFR 2807.15(b), the 

BLM notified the valid existing ROW 

holders by letter of their ability to 

convert their ROWs to perpetual ROWs 

or easements. 

Once the Decision Record is filed, 

amending the RMP and approving the 

proposed sales, the modified 

competitive sales will occur in two 

phases. Phase one will dispose public 

land for which the existing cadastral 

survey is adequate. Phase two will 

dispose the remaining public land in the 

RMP amendment area after the cadastral 

survey for the parcels has been 

completed. 

The patents if issued, would be 

subject to the following terms, 

conditions, and reservations: 

1. All minerals deposits in the lands 

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 are reserved to 

the United States, together with all 

necessary access and exit rights; 

2. A ROW is reserved for ditches and 

canals constructed by authority of the 

United States under the Act of August 

30, 1890 (43 U.S.C. 945); 

3. The parcels are subject to valid 

existing rights; 

4. The parcels are subject to 

reservations for road, public utilities 

and flood control purposes, both 

existing and proposed, in accordance 

with the local governing entities’ 

transportation plans; and 

5. Appropriate indemnification 

clauses protecting the United States 

from claims arising out of the lessee’s/ 

patentee’s use, occupancy, or 

occupations on the leased/patented 

lands. 

Pursuant to the requirements 

established by Section 120(h) of 

CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9620(h), as amended 

by the Superfund Amendments and 

Reauthorization Act of 1988, 100 Stat. 

1670, notice is hereby given that the 

above-described lands have been 

examined and no evidence was found to 

indicate that any hazardous substances 

have been stored for one year or more, 

nor had any hazardous substances been 

disposed of or released on the subject 

property. 

No warranty of any kind, express or 

implied, is given by the United States as 

to the title, whether or to what extent 

the land may be developed, its physical 

condition, future uses, or any other 

circumstance or condition. The 

conveyances of the parcels will not be 

on a contingency basis. However, to the 

extent required by law, the parcels are 


daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES
36620 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 146 / Monday, July 30, 2018 / Notices 

subject to the requirements of Section 

120(h) of the CERCLA. 

Sale procedures: All sale procedures 

apply to both the phase one and phase 

two sales. The approximate sale acreage 

is 553 acres for phase one and 68 acres 

for phase two. The FMV for both the 

phase one and phase two sales will be 

available on BLM’s website at https://

go.usa.gov/xn7nT no later than 30 days 

prior to the respective sale. The 

designated bidder must appoint an 

authorized representative for these sales 

by submitting, in writing, a notarized 

document that also identifies the level 

of capacity given to the authorized 

representative. The authorized 

representative will have the opportunity 

to meet and accept the high bid as the 

purchase price of the parcels. Should 

the authorized representative refuse to 

meet the high bid, the party submitting 

the high bid will be declared the 

successful bidder in accordance with 

regulations at 43 CFR 2711.3–2(c). 

Consistent with 43 CFR 2711.3–2(e), 

acceptance or rejection of any offer to 

purchase shall be in accordance with 

the procedures set forth in 43 CFR 

2711.3–1(f) and (g). Sealed bids will be 

presented for the sale parcels for both 

phase one and phase two. Sealed bid

the front lower left corner with: 

‘‘SEALED BID BLM LAND SALE’’ and 

the identification number for the sale 

parcel. The phase one sale envelope 

should be marked ‘‘BLM SERIAL 

NUMBER N–95802.’’ The phase two 

sale envelope should be marked ‘‘BLM 

SERIAL NUMBER N–96616.’’ Each 

sealed bid shall state the highest bid 

amount and be accompanied by a 

cashier’s check, certified check, or U.S. 

postal money order, and made payable 

in U.S. dollars to ‘‘Department of the 

Interior—Bureau of Land Management’’ 

for not less than 20 percent of the 

amount bid. Personal or company 

checks will not be accepted. The sealed 

bid envelope shall also include a 

completed and signed Certificate of 

Eligibility and supporting 

documentation. The Certificate of 

Eligibility can be found at the Pahrump 

Field Office or for an electronic form, 

please contact the Pahrump Field 

Office, as specified in the ADDRESSES

United States citizens 18 years of age or 

older; (2) A corporation subject to the 

laws of any State or of the United States;

to determine the high bidder on January 

18, 2019 at the Pahrump Field Office at 

10:00 a.m., Pacific Time. Sealed bids for 

phase two will be opened and recorded 

to determine the high bidder on August 

30, 2019, at the Pahrump Field Office at 

10:00 a.m., Pacific Time. Pursuant to 43 

CFR 2711.3–1(c), if two or more sealed 

bid envelopes containing valid bids of 

the same highest auction amount are 

received, oral bidding will start at the 

sealed bid amount between the 

matching sealed bidders. The highest 

bidder among the qualified bids 

received for each sale will be 

announced under 43 CFR 2711.3–1(d). 

The apparent high bidder must submit 

a deposit of not less than 20 percent of 

the successful bid by 3:00 p.m. Pacific 

Time on the day of the sale in the form 

of a certified check, postal money order, 

bank draft, or cashier’s check made 

payable in U.S. dollars to the 

‘‘Department of the Interior—Bureau of 

Land Management.’’ Funds must be 

delivered no later than 3:00 p.m. Pacific 

Time on the day of the applicable sale 

to the BLM Collection Officers located 

at the Pahrump Field Office. If the high 

bidder is unable to consummate the 

transaction for any reason, the secondhighest bid may be considered for 

award. The BLM will send the 

successful bidder a high bidder letter 

with detailed information for full 

payment. 

Within 30 days of the bid opening, the 

BLM will, in writing, either accept or 

reject all bids received. No contractual, 

or other rights against the United States, 

may accrue until the BLM officially 

accepts the offer to purchase and the 

full bid price is paid. Unless other 

satisfactory arrangements are approved 

in advance by a BLM authorized officer, 

conveyance of title shall be through the 

use of escrow. Designation of the escrow 

agent shall be through mutual 

agreement between the BLM and the 

prospective patentee, and costs of 

escrow shall be borne by the prospective 

patentee. Requests for all escrow 

instructions must be received by the 

Pahrump Field Office prior to 30 days 

before the prospective patentee’s 

scheduled closing date. There are no 

exceptions. No contractual or other 

rights against the United States may 

accrue until the BLM officially accepts 

the offer to purchase, and the full bid 

price is submitted by the 180th day 

following the sale. All name changes 

and supporting documentation must be 

received at the BLM Pahrump Field 

Office 30 days from the date on the high 

bidder letter by 4:30 p.m., Pacific Time. 

Name changes will not be accepted after 

that date. To submit a name change, the 

apparent high bidder must submit the 

name change on the Certificate of 

Eligibility to the BLM Pahrump Field 

Office in writing. The remainder of the 

full bid price for the parcel must be paid 

prior to the expiration of the 180th day 

following the close of the sale. Payment 

must be submitted in the form of a 

certified check, postal money order, 

bank draft or cashier’s check made 

payable in U.S. dollars to the 

‘‘Department of the Interior—Bureau of 

Land Management.’’ Personal or 

company checks will not be accepted. 

Arrangements for electronic fund 

transfer to the BLM for payment of the 

balance due must be made a minimum 

of two weeks prior to the payment date. 

Failure to pay the full bid price prior to 

the expiration of the 180th day will 

disqualify the apparent high bidder and 

cause the entire 20 percent bid deposit 

to be forfeited to the BLM. Forfeiture of 

the 20 percent bid deposit is in 

accordance with 43 CFR 2711.3–1(d). 

No exceptions will be made. The BLM 

cannot accept the full bid price after the 

180th day of the sale date. 

The BLM will not sign any documents 

related to 1031 Exchange transactions. 

The timing and all other elements for 

completion of any 1031 Exchange are 

the bidder’s responsibility. The BLM is 

not a party to any 1031 Exchange. All 

sales are made in accordance with and 

subject to the governing provisions of 

law and applicable regulations. In 

accordance with 43 CFR 2711.3–1(f), the 

BLM may accept or reject any or all 

offers to purchase, or withdraw any 

parcel of land or interest therein from 

sale, if, in the opinion of a BLM 

authorized officer, consummation of the 

sale would be inconsistent with any 

law, or for other reasons. The parcels, if 

not sold by modified competitive, 

sealed bid sale, may be identified for 

sale at a later date without further legal 

notice. 

In order to determine the FMV, 

certain assumptions may have been 

made concerning the attributes and 

limitations of the land and potential 

effects of local regulations and policies 

on potential future land uses. Through 

publication of this notice, the BLM 

advises that these assumptions might 

not be endorsed or approved by units of 

local government. It is the bidder’s 

responsibility to be aware of all 

applicable Federal, State, and local 

government laws, regulations and 

policies that may affect the subject 


daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 146 / Monday, July 30, 2018 / Notices 36621 

lands, including any required 

dedication of lands for public uses. It is 

also the bidder’s responsibility to be 

aware of existing or prospective uses of 

nearby properties. When conveyed out 

of Federal ownership, the lands will be 

subject to any applicable laws, 

regulations, and policies of the 

applicable local government for 

proposed future uses. It will be the 

responsibility of the purchaser to be 

aware through due diligence of those 

laws, regulations, and policies, and to 

seek any required local approvals for 

future uses. Bidders should also make 

themselves aware of any Federal or 

State law or regulation that may impact 

the future use of the property. Any land 

lacking access from a public road or 

highway will be conveyed as such, and 

future access acquisition will be the 

responsibility of the buyer. 

Any adverse comments regarding the 

proposed sales will be reviewed by the 

BLM Nevada State Director, who may 

sustain, vacate, or modify this realty 

action. In the absence of any valid 

adverse comments, this realty action 

will become the final determination of 

the Department of the Interior.
