The area described contains 5 acres, more or less. The appraised market value for this parcel is $3,000. The Mimbres Resource Management Plan dated December 1993 makes allowance for a direct sale when the public interest would be served. In this case, the BLM authorized officer finds that the public interest would be best served by a direct sale to Hollis and Dorothy Vaughn to resolve an unintentional, unauthorized occupancy of public land managed by the BLM. In accordance with 43 CFR 2710.0– 6(c)(3)(iii) and 43 CFR 2711.3–3(a), direct sale procedures are appropriate to resolve an inadvertent unauthorized occupancy of the land and to protect existing equities in the land. The unauthorized occupancy involves the encroachment of a large metal barn, corrals, and ranch equipment currently used by Hollis and Dorothy Vaughn. The Vaughns own the private property adjacent to the subject BLM parcel. The initial occupancy began when a previous private landowner built the improvements on the public land assuming it was part of their adjacent private ownership. Access to the subject BLM parcel is through private property owned by the Vaughns. The sale would assemble the public land to the Vaughn property, protect the improvements placed on the land by the previous private landowner, and resolve an inadvertent trespass. The parcel is the minimum size possible to ensure that all of the improvements are included. The proponent, Hollis and Dorothy Vaughn, will be allowed 30 days from receipt of a written offer to submit a deposit of at E:\FR\FM\08MRN1.SGM 08MRN1 erjones on PROD1PC68 with NOTICES 11678 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 45 / Wednesday, March 8, 2006 / Notices least 20 percent of the appraised market value of the parcel, and 180 days thereafter to submit the balance. The following rights, reservations, and conditions will be included in the patent conveying the land: 1. A reservation to the United States for a right-of-way for ditches and canals constructed by the authority of the United States, Act of August 30, 1890 (43 U.S.C. 945). 2. The mineral interests being offered for conveyance have no known mineral value. Acceptance of a direct sale offer constitutes an application for conveyance of the mineral interest. In addition to the full purchase price, a nonrefundable fee of $50 will be required for the purchase of the mineral interests to be conveyed simultaneously with the sale of the land, in accordance with Section 209 of FLPMA (43 U.S.C. 1719). 3. On March 8, 2006 the land described is segregated from appropriation under the public land laws, including the general mining laws and leasing under the mineral leasing laws. Upon publication of this notice and until completion of the sale, BLM will no longer accept land use applications affecting the parcel identified for sale. The segregation effect of this notice shall terminate upon issuance of a patent, upon publication in the Federal Register of a termination notice, or on December 4, 2006, whichever occurs first. Detailed information concerning this land sale, including the reservations, sale procedures and conditions, appraisal, planning and environmental documents, and mineral report is available for review at the BLM, Las Cruces District Office, 1800 Marquess, Las Cruces, NM 88005.
