1976 (FLPMA) and implementing regulations contained in 43 CFR 2711.3-

of 1976, (90 Stat. 2750, 43 U.S.C. 1713) and implementing regulations 
contained in 43 CFR 2711.3-3(5).

Sixth Principal Meridian

T. 27 N., R. 103 W.,
    Sec. 4: lot 6.

    The area described contains 29.42 acres more or less.

    The proposed sale is in conformance with and consistent with the 
objectives, goals and decisions of the BLM Green River Resource 
Management Plan, dated August 8, 1997, and the land is not required for 
other Federal purposes. Conveyance of the identified public land will 
be subject to valid existing rights and encumbrances of record. 
Minerals will be reserved to the United States in the conveyance.
    On November 3, 2008, the above described land will be segregated 
from appropriation under the public land laws, including the mining 
laws, except the sale provisions of the FLPMA. Until completion of the 
sale, BLM will not accept land use applications affecting the 
identified public land, except applications for the amendment of 
previously-filed right-of-way applications or existing authorizations 
to increase the term of the grants in accordance with 43 CFR 2807.15 
and 2886.15. The segregative effect will terminate upon issuance of a 
patent, publication in the Federal Register of a termination of the 
segregation, or November 3, 2010, unless extended by the BLM State 
Director in accordance with 43 CFR 2711.1-2(d) prior to the termination 
date.
