identified for transfer to a State or local
government or the parcel is an integral
part of a project and speculative bidding
could jeopardize successful completion.

Federal purposes. The BLM 1985 San
Juan/San Miguel Resource Management
Plan identified this parcel of public land
as suitable for disposal. Conveyance of
title to the parcel will be subject to valid
existing rights and encumbrances of
record, including but not limited to,
rights-of-way for roads and public
utilities. Conveyance of any mineral

FLPMA will be analyzed during
processing of the proposed sale.
On August 17, 2007, the abovedescribed land will be segregated from
appropriation under the public land
laws, including the mining laws, except
the sale provisions of the FLPMA. The
segregative effect will terminate upon
