Order Providing for Opening of Lands

Subject to Section 24 of the Federal

Power Act; California

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management,

Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: This order opens, subject to

section 24 of the Federal Power Act

(FPA), approximately 87.6 acres of

public lands withdrawn by two Federal

Power Commission (FPC) orders, dated

June 27, 1963 and February 17, 1971, for

Power Project Number 2179. This action

will permit consummation of a pending

land exchange and retain the power

rights to the United States of America.

The Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission (FERC) has determined that

the power value of the subject lands will

not be injured or destroyed by their

exchange, if the land exchange is subject

to section 24 of FPA. FERC concurred

with this action in a letter, DVCA–1237,

dated March 29, 1996. Although the

lands have been and will remain closed

to mining, they have been and will

remain open to mineral leasing.
