Having relied on the report provided by experts of the Branch of Cadastral Survey and the findings therein, dated April 14, 2006, the following synopsis of key findings is provided in support of the application for disclaimer. The records for this area show an active flood plain adjoining the patented original government lots. Various channels have relicted and others expanded but there is no hard evidence PO 00000 Frm 00105 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 of an avulsion resulting in ownership from the other side (south side) of today’s river location. Because of the active channels, erratic survey record, and the economic considerations for omitted lands, as laid out in the Wackerli Decision (Burt A. Wackerli, 73 I.D. 280 (1966)), the Branch of Cadastral Survey has determined and shown this land as accretions attaching to patented lands to the north in the Dependent Resurvey, Corrective Dependent Resurvey, Subdivision, and Survey, T.4 S., R. 34 E., B.M., filed November 17, 2006, in the Public Room at the BLM State Office in Boise, Idaho. Therefore, it is the opinion of this office that the Federal Government has no interest in this 118.27 acre parcel. Anyone who wishes to present comments or objections in connection with the pending application and proposed disclaimer may do so by writing to Tom Dyer, State Director, at the above address. Comments, including names and street addresses of commentors will be available for public review at the BLM-Idaho State Office (see address above), during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, except holidays. Before including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment—including your personal identifying information—may be made publicly available at any time. While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so. If no valid objection is received, a Disclaimer of Interest may be approved stating that the United States does not have a valid interest in these lands. Jerry L. Taylor, Chief, Branch of Lands, Minerals and Water Rights, Resource Services Division. [FR Doc.
