described public land suitable for classification for conveyance under
the provisions of the R&PP Act, as amended (43 U.S.C. 869 et seq.), and
43 CFR 2740:
Salt Lake Meridian
T. 23 S., R. 19 E.,
Sec. 10;
Sec. 11, SW\1/4\SW\1/4\NE\1/4\, W\1/2\NE\1/4\NW\1/4\, NW\1/
4\NW\1/4\, S\1/2\NW\1/4\, SW\1/4\, SW\1/4\NE\1/4\SE\1/4\, NW\1/

The area described contains 1,400 acres more or less, in Grand
County.
The area to be conveyed is approximately 1,300 acres. The
description and acreage of the area classified within sec. 11 will
be revised by survey and approval of a supplemental plat.
The classification is consistent with the BLM Moab Field Office
Resource Management Plan, Lands and Realty Decision LAR-5, Appendix G
at G.1.4, dated October 31, 2008 and is in the public interest. An
environmental assessment will be prepared to analyze the Grand County
application and proposed plans of development and management. A
conveyance would be subject to the provisions of the R&PP Act,
applicable regulations of the Secretary of the Interior, in particular
those provisions found at 43 CFR subpart 2743, and the following
reservations to the United States:
1. A right-of-way thereon for ditches or canals constructed by the
authority of the United States, Act of August 30, 1890 (43 U.S.C. 945);
2. All minerals, 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.
A conveyance would also be subject to the following terms and
conditions:
1. All valid existing rights;
2. An indemnification clause protecting the United States from
claims arising out of the patentee's use, occupancy, or operations on
the land;
3. A provision that states that no portion of the land covered by
the patent, when issued, shall under any circumstances revert to the
United States if such portion has been used for solid waste disposal or
for any other purpose that the authorized officer determines may result
in the disposal, placement, or release of any hazardous substance (43
CFR 2743.2-1(e)).
Upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register, the lands
described above are segregated from all other forms of appropriation
under the public land laws, including the general mining laws, except
for conveyance under the R&PP Act. This notice will also serve as the
2-year notification to the grazing permittees of a reduction in grazing
privilege in the Little Grand and Big Flat Tenmile Allotments.
Classification Comments: Interested parties may submit comments
involving the suitability of the land for a shooting facilities
complex. 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.
Application Comments: Interested parties may submit comments
regarding the specific use proposed in the application, or any other
factors not directly related to the suitability of the land for a
shooting facilities complex.
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.
The BLM State Director will review any adverse comments. In the
absence of any adverse comments, the classification will become
effective on July 12, 2010. The lands will not be available for
conveyance until after the classification becomes effective, and
completion of the environmental assessment on the application.
Conveyance of the lands is also contingent upon approval of a
supplemental survey plat for sec. 11.
Authority: 43 CFR 2741.5(h).
Approved: Jeff Rawson,
Associate State Director.
