Notice of Realty Action; Proposed Sale of Public Land, Idaho

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice of realty action.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: A parcel of public land totaling 40 acres in Lincoln County, 
Idaho, is being considered for direct sale, under the provisions of the 
Federal Land Policy Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA), at no less than the 
appraised fair market value.

DATES: In order to ensure consideration in the environmental analysis 
of the proposed sale, comments must be received by October 9, 2008.

ADDRESSES: Address all comments concerning this Notice to Tara Hagen, 
Realty Specialist, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Shoshone Field 
Office, 400 West F Street, Shoshone, Idaho 83352.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tara Hagen, Realty Specialist, at the 
above address or phone at (208) 732-7205.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The following described public land in 
Lincoln County, Idaho, is being considered for sale under the authority 
of Sections 203 and 209 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act 
of 1976 (90 Stat. 2750 43 U.S.C. 1713):

Boise Meridian

T. 6 S., R. 22 E.,
    Sec. 29, SWSW.

    The area described contains 40 acres in Lincoln County.
    The 1985 BLM Monument Resource Management Plan identified this 
parcel of public land as suitable for disposal. The Amendments to 
Shoshone Field Office Land Use Plans for Land Tenure Adjustment and 
Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (2003) identified this parcel 
of land to be within the adjustment area of Zone 4. Public lands in 
Zone 4 are potentially suitable for disposal primarily by exchange; 
however, if land exchanges are not feasible, then land tenure 
adjustment via sale or R&PP patent will be considered. This parcel 
qualifies for disposal under the Federal Land Transaction Facilitation 
Act (FLTFA). Conveyance of the identified public land will be subject 
to valid existing rights and encumbrances of record, including, but not 
limited to, rights-of-way for roads and public utilities. Conveyance of 
any mineral interests pursuant to section 209 of the FLPMA will be 
analyzed during processing of the proposed direct sale. On August 25, 
2008 the above-described land will be segregated from appropriation 
under the public land laws, including the mining laws, except the sale 
provisions of the FLPMA. Until completion of the sale, the BLM is no 
longer accepting land use applications affecting the identified public 
land, except applications for the amendment of previously filed right-
of-way applications or existing authorizations to increase the term of 
the grants in accordance with 43 CFR 2807.15 and 2886.15. The 
segregative effect will terminate upon issuance of a patent, 
publication in the Federal Register of a termination of the 
segregation, or August 25, 2010 unless extended by the BLM State 
Director in accordance with 43 CFR 2711.1-2(d) prior to the termination 
date.
    Public Comments: For a period until October 9, 2008, interested 
parties and the general public may submit in writing any comments 
concerning the land being considered for sale, including notification 
of any encumbrances or other claims relating to the identified land, to 
Field Manager, BLM Shoshone Field Office, at the above address. In 
order to ensure consideration in the environmental analysis of the 
proposed sale, comments must be in writing and postmarked or delivered 
within 45 days of the initial date of publication of this Notice. 
Comments transmitted via e-mail will not be accepted. Comments, 
including names and street addresses of respondents, will be available 
for public review at the BLM Shoshone Field Office during regular 
business hours, except holidays. 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. If you wish to have your name or address 
withheld from public disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act, 
you must state this prominently at the beginning of your comments. Any 
determination by the BLM to release or withhold the names and/or 
addresses of those who comment will be made on a case-by-case basis. 
Such requests will be honored to the extent allowed by law. The BLM 
will make available for public review, in their entirety, all comments 
submitted by businesses or organizations, including comments by 
individuals in their capacity as an official or representative of a 
business or organization.

    Authority: 43 CFR 2711.1-2.

    Dated: August 14, 2008.
Lori A. Armstrong,
Shoshone Field Manager.
