Leases, Imperial County, California.

SUMMARY: The following described

public land in Imperial County,

California, has been examined and

found suitable for classification for lease

for public purposes under the

provisions of the Recreation and Public

Purposes Act, as amended (43 U.S.C.

869 et seq.). Public land affected and the

proposed land uses are identified as

follows:

CAAZCA 35669—St. Paul’s Episcopal

Church

San Bernardino Meridian, California

Sec. 1, SE1⁄4NW1⁄4SE1⁄4 (within).

San Bernardino Meridian, California

T. 14 S., R. 23 E.,

Sec. 12, NW1⁄4NE1⁄4NE1⁄4 (within).

Containing 2.50 acres, more or less.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The leases

are consistent with current Bureau

planning for this area and would be in

the public interest. The leases, when

issued, would be subject to the

following terms and conditions:

(1) Provisions of the Recreation and

Public Purposes Act and to all

applicable regulations of the Secretary

of the Interior.

(2) Executive Order 11988, Floodplain

Management, dated May 24, 1977.

(3) No new development will occur

on the lease sites. Minimal

improvements that could be

floodproofed may be authorized. No

major improvements to the facilities,

except to maintain them in a safe and

habitable condition, will be authorized.

The leases will be terminated at such

time as the facilities become inundated

or their useful life is gone.

(4) The land will not leave public

ownership. In accordance with the

Yuma District Resource Management

Plan, approved February 1987, land in

or adjacent to the floodplain will all be

retained in Federal ownership to ensure

that public opportunities for Colorado

River recreation continue to be available

in the future.

(5) These leases, when authorized, do

not confer any water rights upon the

lessees. The lessees cannot make or

create any consumptive use of Colorado

River water, whether by diversion of

surface flow, by underground pumping,

or by any other means unless the lessees

possess or acquire rights to the use of

such water pursuant to contracts with

the Bureau of Reclamation.

(6) All rights granted under these

leases are subject to existing rights in

favor of the United States to install or

construct revetments and other river

control works or such other works as

may be authorized by the Reclamation

Act of June 17, 1902, 32 Stat. 388, as

supplemented and amended, and the

Colorado River Front Work and Levee

System Act of June 28, 1946, 60 Stat.

338. There is also reserved to the United

States the right to flood and seep said

land as an incident to control of the

water of the Colorado River.

DATES: January 25, 1996, the above

described land will be segregated from

all other forms of appropriation under

the public land laws, including the

general mining laws, except for lease

under the Recreation and Public

Purposes Act and leasing under the

mineral leasing laws. For a period of 45

days from the date of publication of this

notice in the Federal Register,

interested parties may submit comments

regarding the proposed classification for

lease of the land to the Area Manager,

Yuma Resource Area, 3150 Winsor

Avenue, Yuma, Arizona 85365.

CLASSIFICATION COMMENTS: Interested

parties may submit comments involving

the suitability of the land for a church

camp facility and hunting/fishing

facility. Comments on the classification

are restricted to whether the land is

physically suited for these actions,

whether the use will maximize the

future use or uses of the land, 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 a church camp facility and

hunting/fishing facility.

EFFECTIVE DATE: Any adverse comments

will be reviewed by the District

Manager, Yuma District Office. In the

absence of any adverse comments, the

classification of the land described in

this Notice will become March 25, 1996.
