The lands in the Mina Corridor aggregate
139,391 acres in Esmeralda, Lyon, and
Mineral Counties.
Public Land Order (PLO) No. 7653, 70
FR 76854–76858 (December 28, 2005),
withdrew approximately 308,600 acres
of public lands from surface entry and
mining for the purpose of evaluating a
suite of alternative rail alignments along
the Caliente Corridor, as described in
the DOE’s Final Environmental Impact
Statement for a Geologic Repository for
the Disposal of Spent Fuel and HighLevel Radioactive Waste at Yucca
Mountain, Nye County, Nevada,
February 2002. The evaluation is for the
potential construction, operation, and
maintenance of a rail line which would
be used to transport spent nuclear fuel
and high-level radioactive waste to the
proposed Yucca Mountain Repository as
part of the DOE’s responsibility under
the Nuclear Waste Policy Act, as
amended, 42 U.S.C. 10101 et seq.
The DOE has identified an additional
68,646 acres of public lands for
evaluation along the Caliente Corridor.
Since PLO No. 7653 can not be
amended to add lands, the DOE has
filed this new withdrawal application
for those additional lands.
The DOE’s withdrawal application
also includes 139,391 acres of public
lands for the purpose of evaluating the
potential construction, operation, and
maintenance of a rail line along a suite
of alternative rail alignments referred to
by the DOE as the ‘‘Mina Route.’’ The
width of the withdrawal is 1 mile.
The expiration date for this proposed
withdrawal would be the same as the
expiration date for PLO No. 7653, which
is December 27, 2015.
The use of a right-of-way, interagency
agreement, or cooperative agreement
would not adequately constrain nondiscretionary uses that could
irrevocably affect the evaluation of these
lands for a potential rail line alignment.
There are no suitable alternative sites,
since the lands described identify the
alternative alignments that need to be
evaluated.

No water rights will be needed to
fulfill the purpose of the withdrawal.
Possible mineral deposits present in
the above-described land areas include
some locatable and salable minerals.
For a period of 90 days from the date
of publication of this notice, all persons
who wish to submit comments,
suggestions, or objections in connection
with the proposed withdrawal may
present their views in writing to the
BLM Nevada State Director.
Comments, including names and
street addresses of respondents, will be
available for public review at the BLM
Nevada State Office, 1340 Financial
Blvd., Reno, Nevada, during regular
business hours, 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.,
Monday through Friday, except
holidays. Individual respondents may
request confidentiality. If you wish to
withhold your name or address from
public review or from disclosure under
the Freedom of Information Act, you
must state this prominently at the
beginning of your comments. Such
requests will be honored to the extent
allowed by the law. All submissions
from organizations or businesses, and
from individuals identifying themselves
as representatives or officials of
organizations or businesses, will be
made available for public inspection in
their entirety.
Notice is hereby given that in addition
and subsequent to the 90-day public
comment period mentioned above, there
will be at least one public meeting in
connection with the proposed
withdrawal to be announced at a later
date. A notice of the time, place, and
date will be published in the Federal
Register and a local newspaper at least
30 days before the scheduled date of a
meeting.
This withdrawal proposal will be
processed in accordance with the
regulations set forth in 43 CFR part
2300.
For a period of 2 years from the date
of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register, the lands described
above will be segregated as specified
above unless the application is denied
or cancelled or the withdrawal is
approved prior to that date.
Licenses, permits, cooperative
agreements, or discretionary land use
authorizations of a temporary nature
which will not significantly impact the
purpose of the proposed withdrawal
may be allowed with the approval of the
authorized officer of the BLM during the
segregative period.

[FES–06–53]
Transfer of Title to Facilities, Works,
and Lands of the Gila Project, WelltonMohawk Division, to the WelltonMohawk Irrigation and Drainage
District, Yuma County, AZ (WelltonMohawk Title Transfer)
Bureau of Reclamation,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice of Availability, Final
Environmental Impact Statement,
Wellton-Mohawk Title Transfer.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: Pursuant to the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of
1969, as amended, the Bureau of
Reclamation (Reclamation) has prepared
a Final Environmental Impact Statement
(FEIS) to evaluate the potential effects of
the proposed Wellton-Mohawk Title
Transfer. The title transfer would
transfer ownership and divest
Reclamation of the responsibility for the
operation, maintenance, management,
regulation of, and liability for the
identified project facilities and
appurtenant lands to the WelltonMohawk Irrigation and Drainage District
(District). This title transfer would
consolidate management responsibility
with the District, thereby allowing them
to have greater authority in the
management of growth and land-based
issues in the Wellton-Mohawk Valley,
protect against encroachment on
agriculture, and consolidate ownership
of lands, facilities, and the Gila River
Flood Channel.
ADDRESSES: To obtain a compact disc or
paper copy of the FEIS, please e-mail
Christa Monaco at cmonaco@lc.usbr.gov
or write Ms. Monaco at the Bureau of
Reclamation, Lower Colorado Regional
Office, P.O. Box 61470, Boulder City,
NV 89006–1470. A copy of the FEIS is
available for public review and
inspection on the Region’s Web site at
https://www.usbr.gov/lc under ‘‘Latest
News and Info’’, or at the following
locations:

and mining through December 27, 2015, to evaluate the lands for the
potential construction, operation, and maintenance of a rail line for
the transportation of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive
waste in the event the Nuclear Regulatory Commission authorizes a
geologic repository at Yucca Mountain as provided for under the Nuclear
Waste Policy Act of 1982, as amended. This notice segregates the lands
from surface entry and mining for up to 2 years while various studies
and analyses are made to support a final decision on the withdrawal
application.

The lands in the Mina Corridor aggregate 139,391 acres in Esmeralda,
Lyon, and Mineral Counties.
Public Land Order (PLO) No. 7653, 70 FR 76854-76858 (December 28,
2005), withdrew approximately 308,600 acres of public lands from
surface entry and mining for the purpose of evaluating a suite of
alternative rail alignments along the Caliente Corridor, as described
in the DOE's Final Environmental Impact Statement for a Geologic
Repository for the Disposal of Spent Fuel and High-Level Radioactive
Waste at Yucca Mountain, Nye County, Nevada, February 2002. The
evaluation is for the potential construction, operation, and
maintenance of a rail line which would be used to transport spent
nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste to the proposed Yucca
Mountain Repository as part of the DOE's responsibility under the
Nuclear Waste Policy Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 10101 et seq.
The DOE has identified an additional 68,646 acres of public lands
for evaluation along the Caliente Corridor. Since PLO No. 7653 can not
be amended to add lands, the DOE has filed this new withdrawal
application for those additional lands.
The DOE's withdrawal application also includes 139,391 acres of
public lands for the purpose of evaluating the potential construction,
operation, and maintenance of a rail line along a suite of alternative
rail alignments referred to by the DOE as the ``Mina Route.'' The width
of the withdrawal is 1 mile.
The expiration date for this proposed withdrawal would be the same
as the expiration date for PLO No. 7653, which is December 27, 2015.
The use of a right-of-way, interagency agreement, or cooperative
agreement would not adequately constrain non-discretionary uses that
could irrevocably affect the evaluation of these lands for a potential
rail line alignment.
There are no suitable alternative sites, since the lands described
identify the alternative alignments that need to be evaluated.
No water rights will be needed to fulfill the purpose of the
withdrawal.
Possible mineral deposits present in the above-described land areas
include some locatable and salable minerals.
For a period of 90 days from the date of publication of this
notice, all persons who wish to submit comments, suggestions, or
objections in connection with the proposed withdrawal may present their
views in writing to the BLM Nevada State Director.
Comments, including names and street addresses of respondents, will
be available for public review at the BLM Nevada State Office, 1340
Financial Blvd., Reno, Nevada, during regular business hours, 7:30 a.m.
to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, except holidays. Individual
respondents may request confidentiality. If you wish to withhold your
name or address from public review or from disclosure under the Freedom
of Information Act, you must state this prominently at the beginning of
your comments. Such requests will be honored to the extent allowed by
the law. All submissions from organizations or businesses, and from
individuals identifying themselves as representatives or officials of
organizations or businesses, will be made available for public
inspection in their entirety.
Notice is hereby given that in addition and subsequent to the 90-
day public comment period mentioned above, there will be at least one
public meeting in connection with the proposed withdrawal to be
announced at a later date. A notice of the time, place, and date will
be published in the Federal Register and a local newspaper at least 30
days before the scheduled date of a meeting.
This withdrawal proposal will be processed in accordance with the
regulations set forth in 43 CFR part 2300.
For a period of 2 years from the date of publication of this notice
in the Federal Register, the lands described above will be segregated
as specified above unless the application is denied or cancelled or the
withdrawal is approved prior to that date.
Licenses, permits, cooperative agreements, or discretionary land
use authorizations of a temporary nature which will not significantly
impact the purpose of the proposed withdrawal may be allowed with the
approval of the authorized officer of the BLM during the segregative
period.
(Authority: 43 CFR 2310.3-1(a))
Dated: October 30, 2006.
Margaret L. Jensen,
Deputy State Director, Natural Resources, Lands, and Planning.
