identified for sale have no known
mineral value and the proposed sale
would include the conveyance of both
the surface and mineral interests of the
United States. The United States would
reserve geothermal resources under

$50.00 non-refundable filing fee for
processing the conveyance of the
mineral interest. The terms and
conditions applicable to this sale are as
follows:
1. All parcels will be conveyed with
a reservation of a right-of-way to the

constructed by authority of the United
States under the Act of August 30, 1890
(43 U.S.C. 945).
2. All parcels will be conveyed
subject to valid existing rights. Parcels
may be subject to applications for rights
of way received prior to publication of
this Notice if processing the application
would not adversely affect the
marketability or appraised value of a
parcel. Encumbrances of record,
appearing in the BLM public files for
the parcels proposed for sale, are
available for review during the hours
stated above Monday through Friday at
the California Desert District Office.
3. All parcels will be conveyed
subject to 33-foot easements along all

implied, is given by the United States as
to the title, physical condition or

will not be on a contingency basis. To
the extent required by law, all such
parcels are subject to the requirements
of Section 120(h) of the Comprehensive
Environmental Response Compensation
and Liability Act, as amended
(CERCLA) (42 U.S.C. 9620(h)).
6. 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 interest
of the United States; (5) Activities by
which solids 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
parcel of land patented or otherwise
conveyed by the United States, and may
be enforced by the United States in a
court of competent jurisdiction.

7. Interested bidders may submit
sealed bids for one or more parcels but
a separate sealed bid must be submitted
for each parcel. Sealed bids must be for
not less than the federally approved fair
market value. Sealed bids must be
received at the California Desert District
Office no later than 3 p.m. PST, June 18,
2007. Sealed bid envelopes must be
marked on the lower front left corner
with the BLM Serial Number for the
parcel, the parcel number and the date.
For example: CACA 48476-parcel 1,
May 31, 2007.
8. Each sealed bid must include a
certified check, money order, bank draft,
or cashiers check made payable in U.S.
dollars to the order of the Bureau of
Land Management, for 10 percent of the
amount of the bid.
9. The highest qualifying bid for any
parcel will be declared the high bid and
the high bidder will receive written
notice. Bid results will also be posted on
the Internet at https://www.ca.blm.gov/
ca/cdd/landsale.
10. Bidders submitting matching high
bid amounts for the same parcel will be
provided an opportunity to submit
supplemental bids. The Palm Springs
South Coast Field Manager will
determine the method of supplemental
bidding, which may be by oral auction
or additional sealed bids.
11. The remainder of the full bid price
for each parcel must be paid within 180
calendar days of the competitive sale
date of June 19, 2007, in the form of a
certified check, money order, bank draft,
or cashier’s check made payable in U.S.
dollars to the Bureau of Land
Management. Personal checks will not
be accepted. Failure to pay the full price
within the 180 days will disqualify the
apparent high bidder and cause the
entire bid deposit to be forfeited to the
BLM.
12. The BLM will return checks
submitted by unsuccessful bidders by
U.S. mail.
13. The BLM may accept or reject any
or all offers, or withdraw any parcel of
land or interest therein from sale, if, in

officer, consummation of the sale would
not be fully consistent with FLPMA or
other applicable law or is determined to
not be in the public interest.

corporation subject to the laws of any
State or of the United States; a State,
State instrumentality, or political
subdivision authorized to hold properly,
or an entity legally capable of conveying
and holding lands under the laws of the
State of California. Certification of
qualifications, including citizenship or

corporation or partnership, must
accompany the sealed bid.
Additional Information: If not sold,
any parcel described in this Notice may
be identified for sale later without
further legal notice. Unsold parcels may
be offered for sale by sealed bid, internet
auction, or oral auction. Upon
publication of this notice and until the
completion of the sale, the BLM is no
longer accepting land use applications
affecting the parcels identified for sale.
However, land use applications may be
considered after completion of the sale
for parcels that are not sold 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 Notice, 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 local government policies
laws, and regulations that would 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 uses
of nearby properties. When conveyed
out of Federal ownership, the lands will
be subject to any applicable reviews and
approvals by the respective unit of local
government for proposed future uses,
and any such reviews and approvals
will be the responsibility of the buyer.
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.
Information concerning the sale,
including the reservations, sale
procedures and conditions, CERCLA
and other environmental documents
will be available for review at the
California Desert District Office. Most of
this information will be available on the
Internet at https://www.ca.blm.gov/ca/

and interested parties may submit
comments regarding the proposed sale
to the attention of the Palm SpringSouth Coast Field Manager at the

comments regarding the proposed sale

The proceeds from the sale of the parcels will be deposited into
the Federal Land Disposal Account, pursuant to the Federal Land
Transaction Facilitation Act. With the exception of parcel 1, the lands
identified for sale have no known mineral value and the proposed sale
would include the conveyance of both the surface and mineral interests
of the United States. The United States would reserve geothermal
resources under parcel 1. A bid to purchase a parcel will constitute an
application for conveyance of the mineral interest and in conjunction
with the final payment, the applicant will be required to pay a $50.00
non-refundable filing fee for processing the conveyance of the mineral
interest. The terms and conditions applicable to this sale are as
follows:
1. All parcels will be conveyed with a reservation of a right-of-
way to the United States for ditches and canals constructed by
authority of the United States under the Act of August 30, 1890 (43
U.S.C. 945).
2. All parcels will be conveyed subject to valid existing rights.
Parcels may be subject to applications for rights of way received prior
to publication of this Notice if processing the application would not
adversely affect the marketability or appraised value of a parcel.
Encumbrances of record, appearing in the BLM public files for the
parcels proposed for sale, are available for review during the hours
stated above Monday through Friday at the California Desert District
Office.
3. All parcels will be conveyed subject to 33-foot easements along
all sides of the parcel, in favor of Riverside County, for roads,
public utilities and flood control purposes.
4. All parcels will also be conveyed subject to such additional
easements as may be necessary to authorize existing and proposed roads,
public utilities and flood control facilities based on Riverside
County's transportation and land management plans.
5. No warranty of any kind, express or implied, is given by the
United States as to the title, physical condition or potential uses of
the lands proposed for sale; and the conveyance of any parcel will not
be on a contingency basis. To the extent required by law, all such
parcels are subject to the requirements of Section 120(h) of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act, as
amended (CERCLA) (42 U.S.C. 9620(h)).
6. 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 interest of the United
States; (5) Activities by which solids 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 parcel of land patented or otherwise conveyed by the United States,
and may be enforced by the United States in a court of competent
jurisdiction.

7. Interested bidders may submit sealed bids for one or more
parcels but a separate sealed bid must be submitted for each parcel.
Sealed bids must be for not less than the federally approved fair
market value. Sealed bids must be received at the California Desert
District Office no later than 3 p.m. PST, June 18, 2007. Sealed bid
envelopes must be marked on the lower front left corner with the BLM
Serial Number for the parcel, the parcel number and the date. For
example: CACA 48476-parcel 1, May 31, 2007.
8. Each sealed bid must include a certified check, money order,
bank draft, or cashiers check made payable in U.S. dollars to the order
of the Bureau of Land Management, for 10 percent of the amount of the
bid.
9. The highest qualifying bid for any parcel will be declared the
high bid and the high bidder will receive written notice. Bid results
will also be posted on the Internet at https://www.ca.blm.gov/ca/cdd/
landsale.
10. Bidders submitting matching high bid amounts for the same
parcel will be provided an opportunity to submit supplemental bids. The
Palm Springs South Coast Field Manager will determine the method of
supplemental bidding, which may be by oral auction or additional sealed
bids.
11. The remainder of the full bid price for each parcel must be
paid within 180 calendar days of the competitive sale date of June 19,
2007, in the form of a certified check, money order, bank draft, or
cashier's check made payable in U.S. dollars to the Bureau of Land
Management. Personal checks will not be accepted. Failure to pay the
full price within the 180 days will disqualify the apparent high bidder
and cause the entire bid deposit to be forfeited to the BLM.
12. The BLM will return checks submitted by unsuccessful bidders by
U.S. mail.
13. The BLM may accept or reject any or all offers, 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 not be fully
consistent with FLPMA or other applicable law or is determined to not
be in the public interest.
14. Under Federal law, the public lands may only be conveyed to
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 properly,
or an entity legally capable of conveying and holding lands under the
laws of the State of California. Certification of qualifications,
including citizenship or corporation or partnership, must accompany the
sealed bid.
Additional Information: If not sold, any parcel described in this
Notice may be identified for sale later without further legal notice.
Unsold parcels may be offered for sale by sealed bid, internet auction,
or oral auction. Upon publication of this notice and until the
completion of the sale, the BLM is no longer accepting land use
applications affecting the parcels identified for sale. However, land
use applications may be considered after completion of the sale for
parcels that are not sold 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 Notice, 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 local government policies laws, and regulations that would
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 uses of nearby properties. When conveyed out of
Federal ownership, the lands will be subject to any applicable reviews
and approvals by the respective unit of local government for proposed
future uses, and any such reviews and approvals will be the
responsibility of the buyer. 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.
Information concerning the sale, including the reservations, sale
procedures and conditions, CERCLA and other environmental documents
will be available for review at the California Desert District Office.
Most of this information will be available on the Internet at https://
www.ca.blm.gov/ca/cdd/landsale.
