Notice of Proposed Withdrawal Extension, Corrections to Existing 
Withdrawal, and Opportunity for Public Meeting; Nevada

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) filed an application 
to extend the duration of Public Land Order (PLO) No. 6849 for an 
additional 20-year term. PLO No. 6849 withdrew approximately 457,800 
acres of Federal lands, known as the Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge, 
from mineral entry and location under the United States mining laws to 
protect the wildlife habitat and unique resource values of the refuge 
lands. In addition, this notice corrects errors made in describing 
unsurveyed lands in Township 46 North, Range 27 East, and in the 
calculation of total acreage withdrawn by PLO No. 6849. This notice 
gives an opportunity for the public to comment on the proposed 
withdrawal extension and announces the date, time, and location of a 
public meeting.

DATES: For a period of 90 days from the date of publication of this 
notice, all persons who wish to submit comments, suggestions, or 
objections in connection with the proposed withdrawal may do so in 
writing until March 1, 2011. The public will also be notified of the 
meeting date by announcement in a local newspaper and on the BLM Web 
site: http://www.blm.gov/nv/st/en/fo/wfo.html at least 30 days prior to 
the scheduled date of the meeting.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be mailed to: Humboldt River Field Manager, 
Bureau of Land Management (BLM), 5100 E. Winnemucca Blvd., Winnemucca, 
NV 89445, or e-mailed to: [email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michael Truden, 775-623-1500, or e-
mail: [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FWS Region 1 has filed an application to 
extend the withdrawal established by PLO No. 6849 (56 FR 16278), for an 
additional 20-year term. The PLO withdrew the following described 
Federal lands from location under the United States mining laws and 
will expire on April 21, 2011, unless extended.

    The areas described aggregate approximately 457,800 acres in Washoe 
and Humboldt Counties. The legal descriptions of the unsurveyed lands 
are based on what normal survey subdivision units would be when 
surveyed. PLO No. 6849, when published, withdrew 445,766 acres but was 
subsequently corrected by Federal Register notice 56 FR 24119, and PLO 
Nos. 6849 and 6907. The corrections to the legal descriptions and 
acreage calculations result in the recognition of an additional 12,034 
acres that lie within the existing withdrawal boundary but that were 
omitted due to protraction errors.
    This notice does not alter or extinguish or otherwise affect the 
existing mineral withdrawal created by PLO No. 6849.
    The lands withdrawn by PLO No. 6849 consist of high desert habitat. 
The purpose of the withdrawal extension is to continue to conserve and 
protect the sagebrush-steppe landscape for optimum populations of 
native plants and wildlife including large wintering herds of pronghorn 
antelope, bighorn sheep, pygmy rabbits, and greater sage-grouse.
    The use of a right-of-way, interagency agreement, or cooperative 
agreement, would not provide adequate protection for the wildlife 
habitat and unique resource values within the Sheldon National Wildlife 
Refuge.
    No additional water rights would be needed to fulfill the purpose 
of the requested withdrawal extension.
    There are no suitable alternative sites since the lands described 
herein contain the natural and biological resources of interest for 
protection.
    Comments, including names and street addresses of respondents, will 
be available for public review at the address stated above, during 
regular business hours, 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.,

[[Page 74746]]

Monday through Friday, except holidays. 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, we cannot 
guarantee that we will be able to do so. If you wish to withhold your 
name or address from public review or from disclosure under the Freedom 
of Information Act, you must state this prominently at the beginning of 
your comments. Such requests will be honored to the extent allowed by 
law. All submissions from organizations or businesses, and from 
individuals identifying themselves as representatives or officials of 
organizations or businesses, will be made available for public 
inspection in their entirety.
    Notice is hereby given that a public meeting in connection with the 
proposed withdrawal extension will be held on January 18, 2011 from 6 
p.m. to 8 p.m at the BLM Winnemucca District Office, located at the 
address stated above. A notice of the time and place will also be 
published in at least one newspaper of local jurisdiction no less than 
30 days before the scheduled meeting date. Interested parties may make 
oral statements and may file written statements at the meeting. All 
statements received will be considered before any recommendation 
concerning the proposed extension is submitted to the Assistant 
Secretary for Land and Minerals Management for final action.
    The application will be processed in accordance with the 
regulations set forth in 43 CFR 2310.4.

    Authority:  43 CFR 2310.3-1.
