The areas described contain approximately 

18,248 acres in Tooele County. 

The purpose of the proposed 

legislative withdrawal is to withdraw 

and reserve the lands for use as a 

military training range, involving aerial 

bombing and a gunnery range necessary 

for national security. The withdrawal 

would be established by an act of 

Congress approved by the President. 

The duration of the withdrawal would 

be determined by Congress. 

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 action may present 

their views in writing to the BLM Utah 

State Director, at the address noted 

above. 

Comments, including names and 

street addresses of respondents, and 

records relating to the proposed land 

transfer will be available for public 

review during regular business hours at 

the BLM Utah State Office at the address 

specified above. Individual respondents 

may request confidentiality. 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. 

A public meeting has been scheduled 

in connection with the proposed 

legislative withdrawal. The purpose of 

the meeting is to provide information 

and solicit public comments on the 

proposed action. 

There are no suitable alternative sites 

since the lands herein described lie 

within the exterior boundaries of the 

existing UTTR. 

This withdrawal application will be 

processed in accordance with the 

regulations set forth in 43 CFR part 

2300. 

For a period of two years from the 

date of publication of this notice in the 

Federal Register, the lands will be 

segregated as specified above unless the 

application is denied or canceled or the 

withdrawal is approved prior to that 

date. Land uses currently occurring may 

continue during the segregative period. 

If the proposed legislative withdrawal 

has been submitted to Congress but not 

enacted into law by the end of the twoyear segregation period, consideration 

will be given to entertaining an 

application for a temporary withdrawal 

in aid of pending legislation. 

(Authority: 43 CFR 2310.3–1(b)(1))

State Director.
