Failure to submit the deposit following the sale under 43 CFR 2711.3–1(d) will result in forfeiture of the bid guarantee. If you offer to purchase more than one parcel and fail to submit the bid deposit following the sale on any single parcel, BLM will retain your bid guarantee, and may cancel the sale of all of the parcels for which you were declared the apparent high bidder. The remainder of the full bid price for each parcel must be paid within 180 calendar days of the competitive sale date, i.e., September 4, 2007, in the form of a certified check, postal money order, bank draft, or cashier’s check made payable in U.S. dollars to the order of the Bureau of Land Management. Personal checks will not be accepted. Arrangements for Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT) to BLM for the balance due on or before September 4, 2007, shall be made a minimum of two weeks prior to the date you wish to make payment. Failure to pay the full price within the 180 days will disqualify the apparent high bidder and cause the entire 20 percent deposit to be forfeited to the BLM. Forfeiture of the 20 percent deposit is by operation of 43 CFR 2711.3–1(d). No exceptions will be made. BLM cannot accept the full price at any time following the 180th day after the sale (September 4, 2007). Within 30 days of the sale, BLM will either accept or reject all bids received. Under 43 CFR 2711.3–1(f), a bid is the bidder’s offer to BLM to purchase the parcel. No contractual or other rights against the United States may accrue until BLM officially accepts your offer to purchase, and you submit the full bid price by the 180th day following the sale (September 4, 2007). See 43 CFR 2711.3–1(d) and (f). BLM will send out ‘‘High Bidder Declared’’ letters within 30 days of the sale informing you whether your offer to purchase has been accepted or rejected by BLM. All name changes and supporting documentation must be received at BLM by 4:30 p.m. PST, April 6, 2007, otherwise, the patent will be issued to the name on the Bidder Statement completed at the sale on March 7, 2007. No name changes will be accepted after 4:30 pm PST, April 6, 2007. To change the name, high bidders must notify the BLM–LVFO in writing and re-submit a new Bidder Statement (available at BLM) completed by the intended patentee. 1031 Exchanges: BLM will not sign any documents related to your 1031 Exchange Transactions. The timing for completion of the exchange is your responsibility in accordance with IRS VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:16 Sep 11, 2006 Jkt 208001 regulations. BLM is not a party to your 1031 Exchange. Requests for BLM Escrow Instructions must be received by BLM prior to 30 days before the bidder’s scheduled closing date. There are no exceptions. All sales are made in accordance with and subject to the governing provisions of law and applicable regulations. In general, the BLM may accept or reject any or all offers to purchase, or withdraw any parcel of land or interest therein from sale, if, in the opinion of the BLM authorized officer, consummation of the sale would be inconsistent with any law, or for other reasons. See 43 CFR 2711.3–1(f). Federal law requires bidders to be U.S. citizens 18 years of age or older; a corporation subject to the laws of any State or of the United States; a State, State instrumentality or political subdivision authorized to hold property or an entity legally capable of conveying lands or interests therein under the laws of the State of Nevada. Certification of qualification, including citizenship or corporation or partnership, must be presented to the BLM Sales staff at 4701 N. Torrey Pines Dr., Las Vegas, NV 89130 and is subject to verification by the BLM prior to consummation of the sale. Registered bidders must provide to BLM, within 30 days from sale, proof of citizenship, or proof of current corporate status in good standing filed within the United States. Citizenship is evidenced by presenting a birth certificate, passport, or Immigration/ Naturalization papers. Copies of qualifying documents will be taken. Failure to submit the above requested documents could result in cancellation of the sale. Additional Information If not sold, any parcel described above in this NORA may be identified for sale at a later date without further legal notice. Unsold parcels may be offered for sale in a future online Internet auction. Internet auction procedures will be available at https:// www.auctionrp.com. If unsold on the Internet, parcels may be put up for sale at future oral and online Internet auctions without additional legal notice. Upon publication of this NORA and until the completion of the sale, the BLM is no longer accepting land use applications affecting any parcel identified for sale, including parcels that have been published in a previous NORA. However, land use applications may be considered after completion of the sale for parcels that are not sold through oral or online Internet auction procedures provided the authorization PO 00000 Frm 00062 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 will not adversely affect the marketability or value of the parcel. In order to determine the value, through appraisal, of the parcels of land proposed to be sold, certain extraordinary assumptions may have been made of the attributes and limitations of the lands and potential effects of local regulations and policies on potential future land uses. Through publication of this NORA, the Bureau of Land Management gives notice that these assumptions may not be endorsed or approved by units of local government. It is the buyer’s responsibility to be aware of all applicable Federal, state, and local government laws, regulations and policies that may affect the subject lands, including any required dedication of lands for public uses. It is also the buyer’s responsibility to be aware of existing or projected use of nearby properties. When conveyed out of Federal ownership, the lands will be subject to any applicable laws, regulations, and policies of the applicable local government for proposed future uses. It will be the responsibility of the purchaser to be aware of those laws, regulations, and policies, and to seek any required local approvals for future uses. Buyers should also make themselves aware of any Federal or state law or regulation that may impact the future use of the property. Any land lacking access from a public road or highway will be conveyed as such, and future access acquisition will be the responsibility of the buyer. Environmental Assessment. The SNPLMA parcels proposed for sale were analyzed in an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), entitled ‘‘Las Vegas Land Disposal Boundary EIS’’, approved December 23, 2004. This EIS is available for public review at the BLM LVFO. An Environmental Assessment (EA) for this sale, which tiers to the EIS, has also been prepared for public review and comment at the BLM LVFO.

    Consisting of 81 parcels containing 2,577.60 acres, more or 
less.

    Maps delineating the individual proposed sale parcels and current 
appraisals for each parcel are available for public review at the BLM 
LVFO, and online at https://www.propertydisposal.gsa.gov.
    In addition to the lands described herein, other parcels that have 
been previously noticed for sale, but did not sell, may be offered at 
this sale.

Terms and Conditions of Sale

    Minerals for each parcel will be reserved in accordance with BLM's 
approved Mineral Potential Report dated January 22, 1999. Information 
pertaining to the reservation of minerals is specific to each parcel. 
This information is located in the case file and available for public 
review by visiting the BLM Las Vegas Field Office. For parcels that 
include only ``no known value'' mineral interests, an offer to purchase 
these listed parcels will constitute an application for mineral 
conveyance. In conjunction with the final payment, an applicant for 
``no known value'' mineral parcels will be required to pay a $50.00 
non-refundable filing fee for processing the conveyance of the ``no 
known value'' mineral interests which will be sold simultaneously with 
the surface interests. If the Mineral Potential Report indicates the 
presence of leaseable or saleable minerals, those mineral interests 
will be reserved to the United States.
    Registration for oral bidding for those who have not pre-registered 
will begin at 8 a.m., PST, March 7, 2007, and will end at 10 a.m., PST. 
Other deadline dates for the receipt of payments, and arranging for 
certain payments to be made by electronic transfer, are specified in 
the proposed terms and conditions of sale, as stated herein.
    The following numbered terms and conditions will appear on the 
conveyance documents for these parcels, as follows:
    1. All parcels described above will have discretionary leaseable 
and saleable mineral deposits on the lands in Clark County, if any, 
reserved to the United States, in accordance with BLM's approved 
Mineral Potential Report, dated January 22, 1999. Permittees, 
licensees, and lessees of the United States retain the right to 
prospect for, mine, and remove such leaseable and saleable minerals 
owned by the United States under applicable law and any regulations 
that the Secretary of the Interior may prescribe, together with all 
necessary access and exit rights.
    2. A right-of-way is reserved for ditches and canals constructed by

[[Page 53709]]

authority of the United States under the Act of August 30, 1890 (43 
U.S.C. 945).
    3. All parcels are subject to valid existing rights.
    4. All purchasers/patentees, by accepting a patent, covenant and 
agree to indemnify, defend, and hold the United States harmless from 
any costs, damages, claims, causes of action, penalties, fines, 
liabilities, and judgments of any kind or nature arising from the past, 
present, and future acts or omissions of the patentees or their 
employees, agents, contractors, or lessees, or any third-party, arising 
out of or in connection with the patentees' use, occupancy, or 
operations on the patented real property. This indemnification and hold 
harmless agreement includes, but is not limited to, acts and omissions 
of the patentees and their employees, agents, contractors, or lessees, 
or any third party, arising out of or in connection with the use and/or 
occupancy of the patented real property which has already resulted or 
does hereafter result in: (1) Violations of Federal, state, and local 
laws and regulations that are now or may in the future become, 
applicable to the real property; (2) Judgments, claims or demands of 
any kind assessed against the United States; (3) Costs, expenses, or 
damages of any kind incurred by the United States; (4) Releases or 
threatened releases of solid or hazardous waste(s) and/or hazardous 
substances(s), as defined by Federal or state environmental laws, off, 
on, into or under land, property and other interests of the United 
States; (5) Activities by which solid waste or hazardous substances or 
waste, as defined by Federal and state environmental laws are 
generated, released, stored, used or otherwise disposed of on the 
patented real property, and any cleanup response, remedial action or 
other actions related in any manner to said solid or hazardous 
substances or wastes; or (6) Natural resource damages as defined by 
Federal and state law. This covenant shall be construed as running with 
the parcels of land patented or otherwise conveyed by the United 
States, and may be enforced by the United States in a court of 
competent jurisdiction.
    5. Pursuant to the requirements established by section 120(h) of 
the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability 
Act, 42 U.S.C. 9620(h) (CERCLA), as amended by the Superfund Amendments 
and Reauthorization Act of 1988, 100 Stat. 1670, notice is hereby given 
that the above-described lands have been examined and no evidence was 
found to indicate that any hazardous substances has been stored for one 
year or more, nor had any hazardous substances been disposed of or 
released on the subject property.
    Parcels may also be subject to applications received prior to 
publication of this NORA if processing the application would have no 
adverse affect on the marketability or the federally approved Fair 
Market Value (FMV) of a parcel. Encumbrances that may appear on the BLM 
public files for the parcels proposed for sale are available for review 
during business hours, 7:30 a.m. PDT to 4:30 p.m. PDT, Monday through 
Friday, at the BLM LVFO.
    All parcels are subject to reservations for roads, public utilities 
and flood control purposes in accordance with the local governing 
entities' Transportation Plans.
    No warranty of any kind, express or implied, is given by the United 
States as to title, whether or to what extent the land may be 
developed, its physical condition, future uses, or any other 
circumstance or condition. The conveyance of any parcel will not be on 
a contingency basis. However, to the extent required by law, all 
parcels are subject to the requirements of section 120(h) of the 
CERCLA.
    Sealed bids under 43 CFR 2711.3-1(c) may be submitted for any 
parcel. Sealed bids must be received at the BLM LVFO, no later than 
4:30 p.m., PST, March 2, 2007. Sealed bid envelopes must be marked on 
the lower front left corner with the BLM Serial Number for the parcel 
and the sale date. Bids must be for not less than the federally 
approved FMV, and a separate bid must be submitted for each parcel.
    As required by 43 CFR 2711.3-1(c), each sealed bid shall be 
accompanied by a certified check, postal money order, bank draft, or 
cashier's check made payable in U.S. dollars to the order of the Bureau 
of Land Management, for 20 percent of the amount bid. The highest 
qualifying sealed bid for each parcel will become the starting bid at 
the oral auction. If no sealed bids are received, oral bidding will 
begin at the FMV, as determined by the authorized officer. All sealed 
bids will be opened and recorded at 2 p.m. PST on March 5, 2007 at the 
BLM office on 4701 N. Torrey Pines Drive in Las Vegas. The high sealed 
bid amount will be posted on the auction order list and will be the 
starting bid amount at the oral auction.
    Interested parties who will not be bidding at the public auction 
are not required to register and may proceed directly to the Cashman 
Theater. If you are at the auction to conduct business with the high 
bidders or are there to observe the process, should seating become 
limited, you may be asked to relocate to the balcony or another area in 
order to provide seating in the theater for all bidders before the 
auction begins.
    All oral bidders are required to register. Registration for oral 
bidding will begin at 8 a.m. PST on the day of the sale and will end at 
10 a.m. PST. You are encouraged to pre-register by mail or fax by 
completing the form located in the Sale Packet. The form is also 
available at the BLM LVFO. You may also pre-register online at https://
www.auctionrp.com.
    Prior to receiving a bidder number on the day of the sale, all 
registered bidders must submit a certified check, bank draft, postal 
money order, or cashier's check in the amount of $10,000. This is a bid 
guarantee. In addition to the $10,000 bid guarantee, prospective 
bidders for the parcel designated Serial Number N-81971 must submit a 
bid guarantee of 20 percent of the federally approved FMV for that 
parcel in order to be eligible to bid on that parcel. The check must be 
made payable in U.S. dollars to the order of the Bureau of Land 
Management. On the day of the sale, pre-registered bidders may go to 
the Express Registration Desk, present their Photo Identification, the 
required $10,000 bid guarantee, or the 20 percent FMV bid guarantee for 
Serial Number N-81971, and receive a bidder number. Bidders that have 
not pre-registered must go to the standard Registration Line where 
additional information will be requested along with your Photo 
Identification and the required $10,000 bid guarantee, or the 20 
percent FMV bid guarantee for Serial Number N-81971. Upon completion of 
registration you will be given a bidder number.
    At auction, the highest qualifying bid for any parcel will be 
declared the apparent high bid. Under 43 CFR 2711.3-1(d), the apparent 
high bidder must submit a deposit of not less than 20 percent of the 
successful bid by 3 p.m. PST on the day of the sale either in the form 
of cash (U.S. dollars), or in the form of a personal check, bank draft, 
cashiers check, postal money order or any combination thereof, made 
payable in U.S. dollars to the order of the Bureau of Land Management. 
The deposit must be delivered no later than 3 p.m. PST the day of the 
sale to the BLM Collection Officers at the Cashman Theater. Deposits 
will NOT be accepted at the LVFO.
    Following the auction, all monies submitted with sealed bids and 
bid guarantees will be returned to the unsuccessful bidders upon 
presentation of their photo identification at the designated area. If 
the apparent high

[[Page 53710]]

bidder so chooses, the bid guarantee may be applied to the required 
deposit. Failure to submit the deposit following the sale under 43 CFR 
2711.3-1(d) will result in forfeiture of the bid guarantee. If you 
offer to purchase more than one parcel and fail to submit the bid 
deposit following the sale on any single parcel, BLM will retain your 
bid guarantee, and may cancel the sale of all of the parcels for which 
you were declared the apparent high bidder.
    The remainder of the full bid price for each parcel must be paid 
within 180 calendar days of the competitive sale date, i.e., September 
4, 2007, in the form of a certified check, postal money order, bank 
draft, or cashier's check made payable in U.S. dollars to the order of 
the Bureau of Land Management. Personal checks will not be accepted. 
Arrangements for Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT) to BLM for the balance 
due on or before September 4, 2007, shall be made a minimum of two 
weeks prior to the date you wish to make payment. Failure to pay the 
full price within the 180 days will disqualify the apparent high bidder 
and cause the entire 20 percent deposit to be forfeited to the BLM. 
Forfeiture of the 20 percent deposit is by operation of 43 CFR 2711.3-
1(d). No exceptions will be made. BLM cannot accept the full price at 
any time following the 180th day after the sale (September 4, 2007).
    Within 30 days of the sale, BLM will either accept or reject all 
bids received. Under 43 CFR 2711.3-1(f), a bid is the bidder's offer to 
BLM to purchase the parcel. No contractual or other rights against the 
United States may accrue until BLM officially accepts your offer to 
purchase, and you submit the full bid price by the 180th day following 
the sale (September 4, 2007). See 43 CFR 2711.3-1(d) and (f). BLM will 
send out ``High Bidder Declared'' letters within 30 days of the sale 
informing you whether your offer to purchase has been accepted or 
rejected by BLM. All name changes and supporting documentation must be 
received at BLM by 4:30 p.m. PST, April 6, 2007, otherwise, the patent 
will be issued to the name on the Bidder Statement completed at the 
sale on March 7, 2007. No name changes will be accepted after 4:30 pm 
PST, April 6, 2007. To change the name, high bidders must notify the 
BLM-LVFO in writing and re-submit a new Bidder Statement (available at 
BLM) completed by the intended patentee.
    1031 Exchanges: BLM will not sign any documents related to your 
1031 Exchange Transactions. The timing for completion of the exchange 
is your responsibility in accordance with IRS regulations. BLM is not a 
party to your 1031 Exchange.
    Requests for BLM Escrow Instructions must be received by BLM prior 
to 30 days before the bidder's scheduled closing date. There are no 
exceptions.
    All sales are made in accordance with and subject to the governing 
provisions of law and applicable regulations. In general, the BLM may 
accept or reject any or all offers to purchase, or withdraw any parcel 
of land or interest therein from sale, if, in the opinion of the BLM 
authorized officer, consummation of the sale would be inconsistent with 
any law, or for other reasons. See 43 CFR 2711.3-1(f).
    Federal law requires bidders to be U.S. citizens 18 years of age or 
older; a corporation subject to the laws of any State or of the United 
States; a State, State instrumentality or political subdivision 
authorized to hold property or an entity legally capable of conveying 
lands or interests therein under the laws of the State of Nevada. 
Certification of qualification, including citizenship or corporation or 
partnership, must be presented to the BLM Sales staff at 4701 N. Torrey 
Pines Dr., Las Vegas, NV 89130 and is subject to verification by the 
BLM prior to consummation of the sale. Registered bidders must provide 
to BLM, within 30 days from sale, proof of citizenship, or proof of 
current corporate status in good standing filed within the United 
States. Citizenship is evidenced by presenting a birth certificate, 
passport, or Immigration/Naturalization papers. Copies of qualifying 
documents will be taken. Failure to submit the above requested 
documents could result in cancellation of the sale.

Additional Information

    If not sold, any parcel described above in this NORA may be 
identified for sale at a later date without further legal notice. 
Unsold parcels may be offered for sale in a future online Internet 
auction. Internet auction procedures will be available at https://
www.auctionrp.com. If unsold on the Internet, parcels may be put up for 
sale at future oral and online Internet auctions without additional 
legal notice.
    Upon publication of this NORA and until the completion of the sale, 
the BLM is no longer accepting land use applications affecting any 
parcel identified for sale, including parcels that have been published 
in a previous NORA. However, land use applications may be considered 
after completion of the sale for parcels that are not sold through oral 
or online Internet auction procedures provided the authorization will 
not adversely affect the marketability or value of the parcel.
    In order to determine the value, through appraisal, of the parcels 
of land proposed to be sold, certain extraordinary assumptions may have 
been made of the attributes and limitations of the lands and potential 
effects of local regulations and policies on potential future land 
uses. Through publication of this NORA, the Bureau of Land Management 
gives notice that these assumptions may not be endorsed or approved by 
units of local government. It is the buyer's responsibility to be aware 
of all applicable Federal, state, and local government laws, 
regulations and policies that may affect the subject lands, including 
any required dedication of lands for public uses. It is also the 
buyer's responsibility to be aware of existing or projected use of 
nearby properties. When conveyed out of Federal ownership, the lands 
will be subject to any applicable laws, regulations, and policies of 
the applicable local government for proposed future uses. It will be 
the responsibility of the purchaser to be aware of those laws, 
regulations, and policies, and to seek any required local approvals for 
future uses. Buyers should also make themselves aware of any Federal or 
state law or regulation that may impact the future use of the property. 
Any land lacking access from a public road or highway will be conveyed 
as such, and future access acquisition will be the responsibility of 
the buyer.
    Environmental Assessment. The SNPLMA parcels proposed for sale were 
analyzed in an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), entitled ``Las 
Vegas Land Disposal Boundary EIS'', approved December 23, 2004. This 
EIS is available for public review at the BLM LVFO. An Environmental 
Assessment (EA) for this sale, which tiers to the EIS, has also been 
prepared for public review and comment at the BLM LVFO. BLM will be 
accepting public comment on the EA during the time for comment on the 
proposed sale up to 45 days after publication in the Federal Register.
    Other information concerning the sale, including the appraisals, 
reservations, sale procedures and conditions, CERCLA and other 
environmental documents will be available for review at the BLM LVFO, 
or by calling (702) 515-5000 and asking to speak to a member of the 
Sales Team. Most of this information will also be available on the 
Internet at https://propertydisposal.gsa.gov.
    Public Comments: The general public and interested parties may 
submit

[[Page 53711]]

written comments regarding the proposed sale to the Field Manager, BLM 
LVFO, up to October 27, 2006. Only written comments submitted by postal 
service or overnight mail to the Field Manager--BLM LVFO will be 
considered properly filed. E-mail, facsimile or telephone comments will 
not be considered as properly filed. Any adverse comments regarding the 
proposed sale will be reviewed by the Nevada BLM State Director, or 
other authorized official of the Department of the Interior who may 
sustain, vacate, or modify this realty action in whole or in part, if 
applicable. Any comments received during this process, as well as the 
name and address of the commenter, will be available to the public in 
the administrative record and/or pursuant to a Freedom of Information 
Act request. You may indicate for the record that you do not wish to 
have your name and/or address made available to the public. Any 
determination by the Bureau of Land Management to release or withhold 
the names and/or addresses of those who comment will be made on a case-
by-case basis. A request from a commenter to have their name and/or 
address withheld from public release will be honored to the extent 
permissible by law.

Termination of R&PP Classification--SNPLMA Withdrawal

    Recreation and Public Purposes Act, 43 U.S.C. 869 et seq. (R&PP), 
application number N-79029, which was previously published in Federal 
Register, Vol. 70, No. 196, page 59367, has been withdrawn. R&PP lease 
number N-59496 was previously published in Federal Register 60 FR 
33843, and has been relinquished by the applicant. This NORA officially 
terminates the R&PP classification and segregation for those parcels. 
This NORA hereby provides notice that land previously leased and/or 
segregated for R&PP purposes is no longer required and is now part of 
this sale. However, pursuant to Section 4(c) of SNPLMA, as amended, 
these parcels are withdrawn, subject to valid existing rights, from 
entry and appropriation under the public land laws, location and entry 
under the mining laws and from operation under the mineral leasing and 
geothermal leasing laws, until such time as the Secretary of Interior 
terminates the withdrawal or the lands are conveyed by the Federal 
Government.
