(i) Have at least 1⁄4 degree of Western 

Shoshone blood; 

(ii) Be living on July 7, 2004; 

(iii) Be a citizen of the United States; 

and 

(iv) Not be certified by the Secretary 

to be eligible to receive a per capita 

payment from any other judgment fund 

based on an aboriginal land claim 

awarded by the Indian Claims 

Commission, the United States Claims 

Court, or the United States Court of 

Federal Claims, that was appropriated 

on or before July 7, 2004. 

The Secretary will use Indian census 

rolls prepared by the Agents or 

Superintendents at Carson or Western 

Shoshone Agencies between the years of 

1885 and 1940 and other documents 

acceptable to the Secretary in 

establishing proof of eligibility of an 

individual to be listed on the judgment 

roll and receive a per capita payment 

under the Western Shoshone Claims 

Distribution Act. 

In the preamble to the regulation 

governing the creation of the roll of 

Western Shoshone identifiable group of 

Indians for judgment fund distribution, 

the Bureau of Indian Affairs set out a 

non-regulatory formula for determining 

the application deadline. Because that 

formula has proven to be 

administratively impractical to 

administer, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, 

in conjunction with tribal leaders and 

the Western Shoshone Claims Steering 

Committee, has selected an application 

deadline that approximates what the 

deadline would be under the formula in 

the preamble, if that formula had 

worked as intended. 

The information collection 

requirement contained in this notice has 

been approved by the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) under 

44 U.S.C. 3504(h). The OMB control 

number is 1076–0165 and expires on 

November 30, 2011. Response is 

required to obtain a benefit. An agency 

may not sponsor, and you are not 

required to respond to, any information 

collection that does not display a 

currently valid OMB control number. 

Dated: May 10, 2010.

Assistant Secretary—Indian Affairs.

Notice of Proposed Withdrawal 

Extension and Public Meeting; Oregon 

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The United States Forest 

Service (USFS) has filed an application 

with the Bureau of Land Management 

(BLM) that proposes to extend the 

duration of Public Land Order (PLO) 

No. 6880, as corrected by PLO No. 6918, 

for an additional 20-year term. PLO No. 

6880 withdrew approximately 11,675.51 

acres of National Forest System land 

from mining in order to protect the 

scientific and ecological values, and the 

investment of Federal funds at the 

Pringle Falls Experimental Forest and 

Research Natural Area. The withdrawal 

created by PLO No. 6880 will expire on 

September 29, 2011, unless extended. 

This notice also gives an opportunity to 

comment on the proposed action and to 

attend a public meeting. 

DATES: Comments must be received by 

August 18, 2010. 

ADDRESSES: Comments should be sent to 

the Oregon/Washington State Director, 

BLM, P.O. Box 2965, Portland, OR 

97208–2965. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Susan Daugherty, USFS Pacific 

Northwest Region, (503) 808–2416, or 

Charles R. Roy, BLM Oregon/ 

Washington State Office, (503) 808– 

6189. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

United States Forest Service has filed an 

application requesting that the Secretary 

of the Interior extend PLO No. 6880 (56 

FR 49416 (1991)), as corrected by PLO 

No. 6918 (56 FR 66602 (1991)), for an 

additional 20-year term, subject to valid 

existing rights. PLO 6880, as corrected 

by PLO No. 6918, withdrew certain 

lands in Deschutes County, Oregon, 

from location and entry under the 

United States mining laws (30 U.S.C. ch. 

2). The area described contains 

approximately 11,675.51 acres in 

Deschutes County. PLO No. 6880 is 

incorporated herein by reference. 

The purpose of the proposed 

withdrawal extension is to continue the 

protection of the scientific and 

ecological values, and the investment of 

Federal funds at the Pringle Falls 

Experimental Forest and Research 

Natural Area. 

The use of a right-of-way, interagency 

agreement, or cooperative agreement 

would not provide adequate protection. 

The Forest Service would not need to 

acquire water rights to fulfill the 

purpose of the requested withdrawal 

extension. 

Records related to the application 

may be examined by contacting Charles 

R. Roy 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 extension 

may present their views in writing to 

the BLM Oregon/Washington State 

Director at the address indicated above. 

Electronic mail, facsimile, or telephone 

comments will not be considered 

properly filed. 

Comments, including names and 

street addresses of respondents, will be 

available for public review at the 

address indicated above during regular 

business hours. 

Before including your address, phone 

number, e-mail address, or other 

personal identifying information in your 

comment, be advised 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 withhold your

from disclosure under the Freedom of 

Information Act, you must state this

identifying themselves as 

representatives or officials of 

organization or businesses, will be made 

available for public inspection in their 

entirety. 

Notice is hereby given that a public

held on July 6, 2010 from 5 p.m. to 7 

p.m. at the Deschutes National Forest 

Headquarters located at 1001 SW. 

Emkay Drive, Bend, OR. A notice of the 

time and place of this meeting will be

Classification; Lease and Conveyance 

of Public Land; Arizona 

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice of Realty Action. 

SUMMARY: The Mohave County 

Community College District (College) 

filed an application to lease/purchase 

approximately 12.5 acres of public land 

in Mohave County, Arizona, under the 

provisions of the Recreation and Public 

Purposes (R&PP) Act, as amended, for 

the purpose of a community college. 

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) 

has examined and found the land 

suitable to be classified for lease and/or 

conveyance under the provisions of the 

R&PP Act. 

DATES: Interested parties may submit 

written comments regarding the 

proposed classification and lease or 

conveyance of this public land on or 

before July 6, 2010. 

ADDRESSES: Mail written comments to 

Ruben Sanchez, BLM Field Manager,

Protection Specialist, at the above 

address, or by e-mail at:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The BLM 

has examined and found suitable to be 

classified for lease and subsequent 

conveyance under the provisions of the 

R&PP Act, as amended (43 U.S.C. 869 et 

seq.), the following described public 

land: 

Gila and Salt River Meridian 

T. 21 N., R. 18 W., 

Sec. 8, S1⁄2S1⁄2SW1⁄4NW1⁄4NW1⁄4 and 

NW1⁄4SW1⁄4NW1⁄4. 

The area described contains approximately 

12.5 acres, more or less, in Mohave County. 

In accordance with the R&PP Act, the 

College filed an application to lease 

and/or purchase the above-described 

property to develop as a community 

college. The proposed facilities would 

consist of classrooms, offices, computer 

facilities, library and bookstore, athletic 

facilities, and related appurtenances for 

educational purposes. The community 

college would provide important 

educational services for a portion of 

Mohave County which has experienced 

rapid population growth. Additional 

detailed information pertaining to this 

application, plan of development, and 

site plan is located in case file AZA 

34298 at the BLM Kingman Field Office 

at the address above. 

The College is a political subdivision 

of the State of Arizona and is therefore 

a qualified applicant under the R&PP 

Act. The above-described land is not 

needed for any Federal purpose. Lease 

and/or conveyance of the land to the 

College would be in conformance with 

the BLM Kingman Resource 

Management Plan, approved March 

1995, and would be in the public 

interest. The College has not applied for 

more than 640 acres for public purposes 

other than recreation in a year, the limit 

set in 43 CFR 2741.7(a)(2), and has 

submitted a statement in compliance 

with the regulations at 43 CFR 

2741.4(b). 

Any lease or conveyance will be 

subject to the provisions of the R&PP 

Act and applicable regulations of the 

Secretary of the Interior, and will be 

subject to the following terms, 

conditions, and reservations: 

1. A right-of-way thereon for ditches 

and canals constructed by the authority 

of the United States Act of August 30, 

1890, 26 Stat. 391 (43 U.S.C. 945);

water pipeline granted to Valley 

Pioneers Water Company, its successors 

and assigns, pursuant to the Act of 

February 15, 1901 (43 U.S.C. 959); 

4. Right-of-way AZAR 033291 for 

power line purposes granted to 

UniSource Energy Corporation, its

Act of March 4, 1911 (43 U.S.C. 961); 

5. Right-of-way AZA 017931 for a 

road, granted to the Mohave County 

Board of Supervisors, its successors and 

assigns, pursuant to Section 501 of the 

Federal Land Policy and Management 

Act (FLPMA) (43 U.S.C. 1761); 

6. Right-of-way AZA 021363 held by 

UNS Electric for power line purposes, 

pursuant to Section 501 of FLPMA (43

7. All valid existing rights 

documented on the official public land 

records at the time of lease or patent 

issuance; 

8. An appropriate indemnification 

clause protecting the United States from 

claims arising out of the lessee/ 

patentee’s use, occupancy, or operations 

on the leased/patented lands; and 

9. Any other terms or conditions 

deemed necessary or appropriate by the 

authorized officer. 

Upon publication of this notice in the 

Federal Register, the lands will be 

segregated from all other forms of 

appropriation under the public land 

laws, including the general mining laws, 

except for lease or conveyance under 

the R&PP Act and leasing under the 

mineral leasing laws. 

Classification Comments: Interested 

persons may submit comments 

involving the suitability of the land for 

development of a community college. 

Comments on the classification are 

restricted to whether: (1) The land is 

physically suited for the proposal or any 

other issues that would be pertinent to 

the environmental assessment (prepared 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act of 1969) for this action; (2) 

The use will maximize the future use or 

uses of the land; (3) The use is 

consistent with local planning and 

zoning; and (4) 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 classification decision, or any other 

factor not directly related to the 

suitability of the land for R&PP use as 

a community college. 

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. Any adverse comments will be 

reviewed by the BLM State Director who 

may sustain, vacate, or modify this 

realty action. In the absence of any 

adverse comments, the classification 

will become effective on July 19, 2010.
