under 25 CFR part 151.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Associate Deputy Secretary made a final agency
determination to acquire approximately 31,777.066 acres, more or less,
of land into trust for the Jicarilla Apache Tribe of New Mexico on
December 4, 2006. This notice is published in the exercise of authority
delegated by the Secretary of the Interior to the Associate Deputy
Secretary by 209 DM 8.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ben Burshia, Bureau of Indian Affairs,
Chief, Division of Real Estate Services, Mail Stop 4639-MIB, 1849 C
Street, NW., Washington, DC 20240, Telephone No. (202) 208-7737.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice is published to comply with the
requirement of 25 CFR 151.12(b) that notice be given to the public of
the Associate Deputy Secretary's decision to acquire land in trust at
least 30 days prior to signatory acceptance of the land into trust. The
purpose of the 30 days waiting period in 25 CFR 12(b) is to afford
interested parties the opportunity to seek judicial review of final
administrative decisions to take land in trust for Indian tribes and
individual Indians before transfer of title to the property occurs. On
December 4, 2006, the Associate Deputy Secretary decided to accept
approximately 31,777.066 acres, more or less, of land into trust for
the Jicarilla Apache Tribe of New Mexico pursuant to the Act of June
18, 1934 (48 Stat., 986; 25 U.S.C. 467). The Associate Deputy Secretary
shall acquire title in the name of the United States in trust for the
Jicarilla Apache Tribe of New Mexico for the following parcel of land
described below no sooner than 30 days after the date of this notice.
New Mexico Principal Meridian, Rio Arriba County, New Mexico.
All of the following described tracts, pieces, or parcels of land
comprising a net area of 31,777.066 acres of land, more or less
