SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Washoe County School District filed an R&PP 
application to use public land to authorize and construct a middle 
school in order to provide relief to overcrowding at Yvonne Shaw Middle 
School, located in Spring Valley. The land is described as:

Mount Diablo Meridian, Nevada

T. 20 N., R. 20 E.
    Sec. 5, S\1/2\SW\1/4\.

    The area described contains 80 acres more or less in Washoe 
County.

    The land is not required for any Federal purpose. The proposed 
lease/conveyance is consistent with the BLM Carson City Field Office 
Consolidated Resource Management Plan dated May 2001, and is in the 
public interest. NEPA compliance documentation is being prepared under 
#DOI-BLM-NV-C020-2017-0016-EA.
    The lease/conveyance, if issued, would be subject to the provisions 
of the R&PP Act and applicable regulations of the Secretary of the 
Interior, including, but not limited to, 43 CFR parts 2740-2743 and 
2912, and would be subject to the following terms, conditions, and 
reservations:

[[Page 47765]]

    1. The reservation to the United States of a right-of-way thereon 
for ditches and canals constructed by the authority of the United 
States, Act of August 30, 1890 (43 U.S.C. 945);
    2. All minerals shall be reserved to the United States, together 
with the right to prospect for, mine and remove such deposits from the 
same under applicable law and such regulations as the Secretary of the 
Interior may prescribe; and subject to valid existing rights;
    3. An appropriate indemnification clause protecting the United 
States from claims arising out of the lessees/patentee's use, 
occupancy, or occupations on the leased/patented lands; and
    4. Additional terms and conditions that the authorized officer 
deems appropriate.
    Upon publication of this Notice in the Federal Register, the land 
will be segregated from all forms of appropriation under the public 
land laws, including the United States general mining laws, except for 
conveyance under the R&PP Act, leasing under the mineral leasing laws 
and disposals under the mineral material disposal laws.
    Interested persons may submit comments involving the suitability of 
the land for development of a school. Comments on the classification 
are restricted to whether the land is physically suited for the 
proposal, whether the use will maximize the future use or uses of the 
land, whether the use is consistent with local planning and zoning, or 
whether the use is consistent with state and Federal programs.
    Interested persons may submit comments, including notification of 
any encumbrances or other claims relating to the land, regarding the 
specific use proposed in the application and plan of development, 
whether the BLM followed appropriate administrative procedures in 
reaching a decision to lease/convey under the R&PP Act, or any other 
factors not directly related to the suitability of the land for the 
middle school.
    Documents related to this action are on file at the BLM Sierra 
Front Field Office at the address in the ADDRESSES section and may be 
reviewed by the public at their request.
    Before including your address, phone number, email 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, the BLM cannot guarantee that we will 
be able to do so. Only written comments submitted by postal service or 
overnight mail to the Field Manager, BLM Sierra Front Field Office will 
be considered properly filed.
    Any adverse comments will be reviewed by the BLM Nevada State 
Director who may sustain, vacate, or modify this realty action. In the 
absence of any adverse comments, this realty action will become 
effective December 12, 2017. The land would not be offered for 
conveyance until after the classification becomes effective.

    Authority: 43 CFR 2741.

Bryant Smith,
Field Manager, Sierra Front Field Office.
