Realty Action

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management,

Richfield District.

ACTION: Notice of realty action; direct

sale of public lands in Juab County,

Utah.

SUMMARY: The following described

public lands have been found suitable

for sale under Section 203 of the Federal

Land Policy and Management Act

(FLPMA) of 1976 (90 Stat. 2750, 43

U.S.C. 1713), at no less than the

appraised fair market value $27,000.

The lands will not be offered for sale for

at least 60 days after the date of

publication of this notice.

Salt Lake Meridian, Utah

T. 13 S., R. 1 W.

Sec. 15, W1⁄2NE1⁄4NW1⁄4, NW1⁄4NW1⁄4,

S1⁄2NW1/4, SW1/4.

Contains 300 acres in Juab County.

Publication of this notice segregates

the public lands described above from

appropriation under the public land

laws and the mining laws. The

segregation will end upon disposition of

this action, or 270 days from the date of

publication of this notice, whichever

occurs first.

This land is being offered by direct

sale to Nephi City Corporation of Nephi,

Utah, for a regional sanitary landfill. It

has been determined that the subject

parcel is prospectively valuable for oil

and gas; therefore, the mineral estate,

excluding oil and gas, will be conveyed

simultaneously with the surface estate

in accordance with Section 209 of

FLPMA. Nephi City Corporation filed an

application along with the required

$50.00 nonrefundable fee for the

conveyance of the mineral interest

specified above. The oil and gas

minerals in the lands shall be reserved

to the United States. The described 300

acres are subject to the existing grazing

use of Phillip E. Allred, holder of the

grazing preference on the Stone Quarry

Allotment. A certified letter was sent to

the permittee which served as the 2-year

notification of a reduction of his grazing

privilege, pursuant to 43 CFR 2711.1–3.

This grazing privilege will expire on

May 4, 1995. The patent will not be

issued on or before this date and will

result in the loss of 17 of the 225 AUMs

presently produced on this allotment.

This will constitute an 8% downward

adjustment in the grazing preference.

The patent, when issued, will contain

the following reservations to the United

States:

1. A right-of-way thereon for ditches

or canals constructed by the authority of

the United States. Act of August 30,

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

(1970)).

2. All oil and gas resources would be

reserved to the United States with the

right to prospect for, mine, and remove

the same under applicable law and such

regulations as the Secretary of the

Interior may prescribe, in accordance

with public law 94–579, Section 209 of

the Federal Land Policy and

Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C.

1719).

And will be subject to all valid

existing rights and privileges of record

and title restrictions including, but not

limited to:

1. The subject lands are located

within the Hall Creek drainage and the

Spring Canyon drainage and both

involve base floodplains. Nephi City

Corporation must demonstrate their

ability to maintain, restore and protect

the floodplains on a continuous basis in

accordance with Section 3(d) Executive

Order 11988 of May 24, 1977 (42 F.R.

26951) (Floodplain Management) and

BLM Manual 7221.06D1. The

conveyance document will (1) reference

those uses that are restricted under

Federal, State or local floodplain

regulations; and (2) shall include other

appropriate restrictions to the uses of

properties by Nephi City Corporation

and any successors.

2. The follwing indemnification

statement signed by the Nephi City

Mayor:

‘‘The City of Nephi, its successors or

assigns, assumes all liability for and

shall defend, indemnify, and save

harmless the United States and its

officers, agents, representatives, and

employees (hereinafter referred to in

this clause as the United States), from

all claims, loss, damage, actions, causes

of action, expense, and liability

(hereinafter referred to in this clause as

claims) resulting from, brought for, or

on account of, any personal injury,

threat of personal injury, or property

damage received or sustained by any

person or persons (including the

patentee’s employees) or property

growing out of, occurring, or attributable

directly or indirectly, to the disposal of

solid waste on, or in the release of

hazardous substances from T. 13 S., R.

1 W., Sec. 15, W1⁄2NE1⁄4NW1⁄4,

NW1⁄4NW1⁄4, S1⁄2NW1⁄4, SW1⁄4,

regardless of whether such claims shall

be attributable to: (1) the concurrent,

contributory, or partial fault, failure, or

negligence of the United States, or (2)

the sole fault, failure, or negligence of

the United States.’’

Failure of Nephi City Corporation to

submit the full purchase price within

the time allowed will result in

cancellation of the sale and forfeiture of

any deposits. The public lands would be

withdrawn from sale and the City of

Nephi would be required to bring the

existing 20 acre landfill site into

compliance with Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA) landfill

regulations. Otherwise, R&PP lease

UTU–51861 may be terminated. If the

lease is terminated the existing landfill

site would be closed and the City of

Nephi would then be required to

remove all facilities and rehabilitate the

disturbed public land in accordance

with EPA and BLM rules and

regulations. The R&PP classification

would terminate. The public lands

would then continue under the

jurisdiction and management of the

Bureau of Land Management and

become subject to the public land laws

and general mining laws.

Detailed information concerning these

reservations as well as specific terms

and conditions of the sale are available

for review at the House Range and

Warm Springs Resource Areas, Bureau

of Land Management, 35 East 500 North,

Fillmore, Utah 84631.

For a period of 45 days from the date

of publication of this notice in the

Federal Register, interested parties may

submit comments to the Area Manager,

House Range and Warm Springs

Resource Areas, at the above address. In

the absence of timely objections, this

proposal shall become the final

determination of the Department of the

Interior.
