SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The following described public land in 
Shasta County, California has been examined and found suitable for 
classification for lease and/or conveyance under the Recreation and 
Public Purposes Act, as amended (43 U.S.C. 869 et seq.) and is hereby 
classified accordingly:

Mount Diablo Meridian, California

T. 32 N., R. 5 W.,
Sec. 30, lots 16 and 19, S\1/2\NE\1/4\SE\1/4\SW\1/4\, and N\1/
2\SE\1/4\SE\1/4\SW\1/4\;
    Sec. 31, lot 29.
    The area described contains 60.87 acres in Shasta County.

    The Shasta Service Guild's goal is to preserve and interpret the 
history of Shasta County and especially the Shasta area. The 60.87 
acres of public land has many historical features which will be 
incorporated into their plan of development along with many structures 
which include an old freight depot, blacksmith barn, church, school, 
and other such structures that may become available. The project will 
also include an area for their annual Art Fair and Fiddle Jamboree held 
in May each year. Part of their plan includes a full-service Community 
Center and offices which will also include bays for emergency vehicles 
such as an ambulance or fire truck, along with a fire training site to 
help in the training of area fire personnel.
    The Shasta Service Guild is a non-profit organization that provides 
family support services, social services, and local community project 
assistance in Shasta County. A portion of the above described lands 
(encompassing approximately 3 acres within lot 19) were previously 
classified as suitable for lease, for landfill purposes, to the County 
of Shasta. These lands are no longer needed for this purpose and are 
hereby classified for lease and or conveyance to the Shasta Service 
Guild

[[Page 68083]]

as part of the above legal description. The subject lands were also 
segregated as of March 16, 2005 (CA 46843 F2), under provisions of the 
exchange regulations found at 43 CFR 2201.1-1. The March 16, 2005 
segregation is hereby terminated for the lands described in this 
Notice. The lease and or conveyance, when issued, will be subject to 
the provisions of the Recreation and Public Purposes Act, and to all 
applicable regulations of the Secretary of the Interior, and would 
contain the following reservations to the United States:
    1. A right-of-way thereon for ditches and canals constructed by the 
authority of the United States, Act of August 30, 1890 (43 U.S.C. 945).
    2. All minerals shall be reserved to the United States, together 
with the right to prospect for, mine, and remove such deposits from the 
same under applicable law and such regulations as the Secretary of the 
Interior may prescribe. Initially, the lands would be leased and after 
substantial development of the parcel, may be purchased by the Shasta 
Service Guild at 50 percent of the appraised fair market value, as 
provided for by 43 CFR 2741.8(b) and established BLM procedures. The 
lands are not needed for Federal purposes. Lease or conveyance is 
consistent with current BLM land use planning and would be in the 
public interest (1993 Redding Resource Management Plan).
    Classification Comments: Interested parties may submit comments 
involving the suitability of the land for a park and community center 
as described below. Comments on the classification are restricted to 
whether the land is physically suited for the proposal, whether the use 
is consistent with local planning and zoning, or if the use is 
consistent with State and Federal programs.
    Application Comments: Interested parties may submit comments 
regarding the specific use proposed in the application and plan of 
development, whether the BLM followed proper administrative procedures 
in reaching the decision, or any other factor not directly related to 
the suitability of the land for Recreation and Public Purposes. All 
submissions from organizations or businesses will be made available for 
public inspection in their entirety. Individuals may request 
confidentiality with respect to their name, address, and phone number. 
If you wish to have your name or street address withheld from public 
review, or from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act, the 
first line of the comment should start with the words ``CONFIDENTIALITY 
REQUEST'' in uppercase letters in order for BLM to comply with your 
request. Such request will be honored to the extent allowed by law. 
Comment contents will not be kept confidential. Any objections will be 
evaluated by the State Director, who may sustain, vacate, or modify 
this realty action.
    On November 9, 2005, the subject lands will be segregated from all 
other appropriation under the public land laws, including the general 
mining laws, except for lease/conveyance under the Recreation and 
Public Purposes Act. The segregative effect shall terminate upon 
issuance of a patent or as specified in an opening order to be 
published in the Federal Register, which ever occurs first. In the 
absence of timely objections, the classification of the lands described 
in this Notice will become effective January 9, 2006.
    The lands will not be offered for lease/conveyance until after the 
classification becomes effective.
(Authority: 43 CFR 2741.5)


    Dated: September 2, 2005.
