at no less than the appraised fair market

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

following-described public land in 

Lander County, Nevada, is being 

proposed for sale under the authority of 

section 203 of the FLPMA: Mount 

Diablo Meridian, Nevada. 

T. 19 N., R. 44 E., 

Sec. 19, lots 28 and 29. 

The area described contains 2.65 acres, 

more or less. 

The 1986 BLM Shoshone-Eureka 

Resource Management Plan identifies 

this parcel of public land as suitable for 

disposal. The sale will be subject to the 

provisions of FLPMA and applicable 

regulations and will contain the 

reservation to the United States of a 

right-of-way thereon for ditches or 

canals constructed by the authority of 

the United States, Act of August 30, 

1890 (43 U.S.C. 945). Conveyance of the 

identified public land will be subject to 

valid existing rights and encumbrances 

of record, including but not limited to, 

rights-of-way for roads and public 

utilities. Conveyance of any mineral 

interests pursuant to section 209 of the 

Act of October 21, 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1719) 

will be analyzed during processing of 

the proposed sale. 

On December 27, 2008, the above 

described land will be segregated from 

appropriation under the public land 

laws, including the mining and mineral 

laws, except the sale provisions of the 

FLPMA. Upon publication of this Notice 

of Realty Action and until completion of 

the sale, the BLM is no longer accepting 

land use applications affecting the 

identified public land, except 

applications for the amendment of 

previously filed right-of-way 

applications or existing authorizations 

to increase the term of the grants in 

accordance with 43 CFR 2807.15 and 

2886.15. The segregative effect will 

terminate upon issuance of a patent, 

publication in the Federal Register of a 

termination of the segregation, or 

December 27, 2009, unless extended by 

the BLM Nevada State Director in 

accordance with 43 CFR 2711.1–2(d) 

prior to the termination date. 

For a period until February 11, 2008, 

interested parties and the general public 

may submit in writing any comments 

concerning the land being considered 

for sale, including notification of any 

encumbrances or other claims relating 

to the identified land to the BLM Field 

Manager at the above address. In order 

to ensure consideration in the 

environmental analysis of the proposed 

sale, comments must be in writing and 

postmarked or delivered within 45 days 

of the initial date of publication of this 

Notice of Realty Action. Only written 

comments submitted by postal service 

or overnight mail to the BLM Field 

Manager will be considered properly 

filed. Facsimiles, telephone calls, and 

electronic mails are unacceptable means 

of notification. 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. If you wish to have your name or 

address withheld from public disclosure 

under the Freedom of Information Act, 

you must state this prominently at the 

beginning of your comments. Any 

determination by the BLM to release or 

withhold the names and/or addresses of 

those who comment will be made on a 

case-by-case basis. Such requests will be 

honored to the extent allowed by law. 

The BLM will make available for public 

review, in their entirety, all comments 

submitted by businesses or 

organizations, including comments by 

individuals in their capacity as an 

official or representative of a business or 

organization. 

Any adverse comments will be 

reviewed by the BLM Nevada State 

Director who may sustain, vacate, or 

modify this realty action. In the absence 

of any adverse comments, this realty 

action will become the final 

determination of the Department of the 

Interior.
