120+ years. The ground cover consists

of hazel, willow, cattails and native

grasses along the entire shore line.

3. The present water level of the lake

compares favorably with that of the lake

at the time of the original survey;

therefore, the elevation and upland

character of the island along with the

depth and width of the lake between the

adjacent upland and the island are

considered evidence that the island did

exist in 1858, the year Minnesota was

admitted to the Union. The original

survey in 1857 did not note the

presence of this island.

4. Tract No. 37 is more than 50

percent upland in character within the

interpretation of the Swamp and

Overflow Act of September 28, 1850 (9

Stat. 519) as extended to the State of

Minnesota under the Act of March 12,

1860 (12 Stat. 3).

5. The survey was requested by

Bureau of Land Management,

Milwaukee Field Office, under the

authority of section 211 of FLPMA (43

U.S.C. 1721) and the Minnesota Public

Lands Improvement Act of 1990, P.L.

101–442 (104 Stat. 1020).

6. Except for valid existing rights, this

island will not be subject to application,

petition, location or selection under any

public law until February 7, 2002.

7. Interested parties protesting the

determination that this island is public

land of the United States, must present

valid proof showing that the island did

not exist at the time of statehood or that

it was attached to the mainland at the

time of the original survey. Such

protests must be submitted in writing to
