Proposed Exchange of Federal Lands
for Privately Owned Lands at Olympic
National Park
National Park Service, Interior.
Notice of proposed land
exchange.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The federally-owned land
described below, which was acquired by
the National Park Service, has been
determined to be suitable for disposal
by exchange. The authority for this
exchange is the Act of July 15, 1968 (16
U.S.C. 460 l–22(b)) and the Act of June
29, 1938 (16 U.S.C. 251), as amended.
The selected Federal land is within
the boundary of Olympic National Park
(ONP), along the North Shore Road of
the Quinault area. This land has been
surveyed to evaluate potential
consequences of a land exchange. Those
surveys have determined that there will
not be any effect on threatened,
endangered, or rare species; and there
will not be any effect on historical,
cultural, or archeological resources.
These reports are available upon
request.
Fee ownership of the federally-owned
property to be exchanged: ONP Tract
No. 44–140 is a 0.44 +/¥acre parcel of
land acquired by the United States of
America by deed recorded 12/21/1999,
Grays Harbor County Auditor No. 1999–
12210050.
Conveyance of the land by the United
States of America will be by Quitclaim
Deed and include certain land use
restrictions to prohibit inappropriate
use and development.
In exchange for the lands identified in
Paragraph I, the United States of
America will acquire a 0.26 +/¥acre
parcel of land, currently owned by Mr.
Thomas LaForest, lying within the
boundary of ONP (ONP Tract No. 36–
122), also along the North Shore Road
of the Quinault area. The private lands
are being acquired in fee simple with no
reservations, subject only to rights of
way and easements of record.
Acquisition of the private land will
eliminate the risk of inappropriate
development along the main roadway
through this portion of the park. The
acquisition will also provide consistent
management with the adjacent park
administered lands that currently
surround the private land. The exchange
will allow for private garage use at a
more suitable location that already has
this existing structure. This action will
ensure minimal adverse impacts to
visitor services, natural resources, and
the scenic values in ONP.
