On October 30, 2000, the Steens Mountain Cooperative Management and Protective Act of 2000 (PL 106-399) was enacted into law, superseding two proposed withdrawals and PLO No. 5822.

                    A Notice of Proposed Withdrawal was published in the                     **Federal Register**                    , (64FR50531, September 17, 1999) as FR Doc. 99-23812, for the BLM to withdraw 619,000 acres of Federal lands, 73,900 acres of Federal minerals, and 37,400 acres of Federal Surface lands from the non-discretionary public land and mining laws, for the Steens Mountain Area. Another Notice of Proposed Withdrawal was published in the                     **Federal Register**                    , (65FR38849, June 22, 2000) as FR Doc. 00-15781, for the BLM to withdraw 17,056.18 acres of public lands, and 680 acres of non-federal lands, from surface entry and mining, but not the mineral leasing, for the Diamond Craters Outstanding Natural Area/Area of Critical Environmental Concern. In addition, Public Land Order No. 5822, published in the                     **Federal Register**                    , (46FR6947, January 22, 1981) as FR Doc. 81-2310, for the BLM withdrew 16,656.18 acres of Federal lands from settlement, sale, location, or entry under the general land laws, including the mining laws, but not                           ( print page 13344)                        from mineral leasing, for the Diamond Craters Geologic Area has also been superseded by PL 106-399, and allowed to expire.                

The segregative effect for the Federal interests in the above mentioned proposed withdrawals, and the PLO, are lifted, subject to PL 106-399, valid existing rights, the provisions of existing withdrawals, other segregations of record, and the requirements of applicable law.
