    Authority: 43 U.S.C. 1201, 1740, and 1745.


    The Secretary of the Interior has been granted discretionary 
authority by section 315 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act 
of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1745) to issue recordable disclaimers of interests in 
lands. In general, a disclaimer may be issued if the disclaimer will 
help remove a cloud on the title to lands and there is a determination 
that such lands are not lands of the United States or that the United 
States does not hold a valid interest in the lands. These regulations 
implement this statutory authority of the Secretary.
