FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mary von Koch, Realty Specialist, Moab Field Office, 435–259–2128. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The decision to cancel the Notice of Realty Action is based on the comments received during the 45-day comment period. Interested parties pointed out uncertainties with allocation of water rights that are critical for the proposed agricultural lease, they objected to BLM’s determination that no competitive interests exist, and stated that the separation of public and State Trust lands for a separate use from the private lands will create haphazard inholdings and access problems for private landowners and grazing permittees. BLM has determined that cancellation of the NORA and continued management of the parcels for existing uses, pending exchange with State Trust, is in the public interest. Dated: June 27, 2006. A.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Between 1987 and the present, New Mexico has satisfied its water delivery obligations to Texas under the Pecos River Compact (Compact) and Amended Decree. In some years, New Mexico has overdelivered water to the state line and in other years it has under-delivered. New Mexico has been able to satisfy its Compact obligations in large part because of its leasing program and the fallowing of irrigated land within the Carlsbad Irrigation District (CID). The leasing program within the CID has operated under an existing short-term miscellaneous purposes contract since 1992, which allows foregone, leased irrigation water to be delivered to the state line on behalf of the NMISC. The State of New Mexico ex rel. the State Engineer, NMISC, Reclamation, the CID, and the Pecos Valley Artesian Conservancy District entered into a Settlement Agreement on March 25, 2003, that resolves litigation, implements a plan to ensure delivery of water to the CID and New Mexico-Texas state line, and settles many water management issues on the Pecos River. An ad hoc committee comprised of water users in the Pecos River Basin was formed to develop a solution for longterm compliance with the Pecos River Compact and Amended Decree, resulting in the Settlement Agreement. In addition, the implementation of the Settlement Agreement is contingent upon fulfilling certain requirements, including the execution of a long-term miscellaneous purposes contract. On February 28, 2003, Reclamation published a notice in the Federal Register (68 FR 9715–9722) stating plans to execute a contract with the CID that would allow the NMISC to lease water allotted for up to 6,000 acres, or other available Carlsbad Project water (Project water), for purposes other than irrigation, i.e., bypassing water, allowing it to be delivered to Texas. These 6,000 acres, plus 164 acres that the NMISC currently owns within the boundaries of the CID, would be E:\FR\FM\21JYN1.SGM 21JYN1
