SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to Section 315 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1745), Robert P. Brown, has filed two applications on behalf of Dale L. Becker and Evelyn M. Becker (personal VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:54 May 26, 2006 Jkt 208001 representative of the estate of Donald S. Becker, deceased) requesting the United States issue recordable disclaimers of interest. One disclaimer of interest has been requested for the following described property, to wit: The 87.5 acres fronting government lots 3 and 4 in section 8 shown on a Record of Survey in T. 34 N., R. 5 W., sections 5, 6, and 8, Boise Meridian, Idaho, executed by Terry Golding, PLS 7379, plat signed August 29, 2003 and on file in the BLM, Idaho State Office in case file IDI–35463. Another disclaimer of interest has been requested for the following described property to wit: The 10.2 acres fronting government lot 2 in section 8 shown on a Record of Survey in T. 34 N., R. 5 W., sections 5, 6, and 8, Boise Meridian, Idaho, executed by Terry Golding, PLS 7379, plat signed August 29, 2003 and on file in the BLM, Idaho State Office in case file IDI–35462.

Therefore, the applications by Robert P. Brown for disclaimers from the United States will be approved if no valid objection is received. This action will clear a cloud on the title of Dale L. Becker’s and Evelyn M. Becker’s (personal representative of the estate of Donald S. Becker, deceased) land.
