ACTION: Notice of realty action. SUMMARY: This notice extends the segregation on 998.2 acres of public lands in Lyon County, Nevada for up to 2 additional years. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Fred Slagle, (775) 885–6115. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The following described public lands are located southwest (sec. 22) and south (sec. 36) of Fernley, Nevada: Mount Diablo Meridian T. 20 N., R. 24 E., Sec. 22, 1ots 1 to 6, inclusive, NE1⁄4, E1⁄2NW1⁄4, E1⁄2SW1⁄4, and W1⁄2SE1⁄4; Sec. 36, E1⁄2NE1⁄4NE1⁄4, NW1⁄4NE1⁄4NE1⁄4, N1⁄2NW1⁄4NE1⁄4, and W1⁄2. The areas described aggregate 998.2 acres, more or less, in Lyon County. Notification of a 2-year segregation of the described lands from appropriation under the public land laws, including the mining laws, except the sale provisions of the Federal Land Policy Management Act, appeared in the Federal Register on August 20, 2007 (72 FR 46509). The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has completed an environmental analysis and by decision dated August 11, 2008, found the lands suitable for sale. The BLM has encountered unanticipated processing delays, including a pending action to clear an encumbrance on portions of the sale area. In accordance with 43 CFR 2711.1–2(d), the BLM Nevada State Director has determined that extension of this segregation is necessary to provide sufficient time to complete final processing steps required to offer these lands for sale. The segregative effect will terminate on issuance of a patent, publication in the Federal Register of a termination of the segregation, or on August 20, 2011, whichever occurs first.

ACTION: Proposed Supplementary Rules. mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is proposing supplementary rules for use of 736 acres of public lands in and around Blue Creek Bay on Lake Coeur d’Alene. The proposed supplementary rules would implement decisions from the Blue Creek Bay Recreation Project Plan, approved January 7, 2009. The rules are necessary to protect public land natural resources and provide for the public’s health and safety. DATES: Comments on the proposed supplementary rules must be received in person or postmarked by August 12, 2009, to be assured consideration. In developing final supplementary rules, the BLM may not consider comments postmarked or received in person or by electronic mail after this date.

Public Comment Procedures This notice and a map of the involved area are available for public review at the BLM Coeur d’Alene Field Office. You may mail or hand deliver comments to the Bureau of Land Management, Coeur d’Alene Field Office, 3815 Schreiber Way, Coeur VerDate Nov<24>2008 18:36 Jul 10, 2009 Jkt 217001 d’Alene, Idaho 83815 during regular business hours from 7:45 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, except federal holidays; or e-mail comments to brian_white@blm.gov.

Where possible, your comments should reference the specific section or paragraph of the proposal that you are addressing. The BLM may not necessarily consider or include comments in the administrative record for the final rule that are received after the comment period closes (see DATES) or comments delivered to an address other than that listed above (see ADDRESSES). Comments, including names, street addresses, and other contact information of respondents, will be available for public review at 3815 Schreiber Way, Coeur d’Alene, Idaho 83815, during regular business hours.

While you can ask us in your comment to withhold from public review your personal identifying information, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so. II. Background Through a series of transactions, the BLM acquired 736 acres of public land surrounding Blue Creek Bay on Lake Coeur d’Alene over a 10-year period. The acquisition generated considerable public interest and required a substantial investment of public funds. The parcels were acquired with the intent of providing public access to the lake while retaining many of the natural elements in close proximity to a rapidly growing urban/suburban area. The key issues are public health and safety and long-term management of a public access site on Lake Coeur d’Alene. In developing a recreation plan for this area, BLM conducted extensive public outreach in 2007 and 2008 and analyzed alternative levels of development and different management strategies for the area. The plan considered the physical location and characteristics of the area, the natural resource values, recreational opportunities and public input. The Blue Creek Bay Recreation Project Plan, completed in January 2009, identified a modest level of development that PO 00000 Frm 00065 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 33469 included day-use only waterfront facilities, such as a parking area, docks, vault toilet and picnic sites, an upland trailhead and non-motorized trails; and interpretive displays for environmental education. The recreation plan also identified supplementary rules necessary for the safety of the adjacent landowners, public land users, and other visitors to the area. III. Discussion of Proposed Supplementary Rules The proposed supplementary rules would implement decisions from the Blue Creek Bay Recreation Project Plan, approved January 7, 2009. The rules are necessary to protect natural resources on public land and provide for the public’s health and safety. These supplementary rules would replace five existing restrictions orders and include one new restriction on overnight boat moorage. The following proposed supplementary rules would implement related decisions from the Blue Creek Bay Recreation Project Plan. Additional background information and justification are included following each proposed rule. (1) You must not occupy or use the Blue Creek Bay public lands from one hour after sundown to one hour before sunrise. The subject public lands, easily accessible from and in close proximity to a growing urban center, have attracted a variety of nuisance activities involving local youths, day laborers and drug users; that are incompatible with legitimate uses of the area. Unauthorized uses have included underage drinking parties and illegal drug use, illegal campfires, littering, and vandalism. Many of these activities occur when BLM personnel are not available for patrols or public contact. Numerous complaints have been received from local residents regarding nighttime activities and disturbances, particularly at the log landing area. The emergency overnight occupancy and use restriction, implemented in April 2008, proved effective in reducing these unauthorized uses of the area. The overnight occupancy and use restriction has provided an additional resource protection tool for BLM Law Enforcement Rangers as well as local law enforcement agencies. (2) You must not moor any boat overnight on any BLM-managed structure or shoreline. Local residents strongly objected to overnight use of the subject public lands throughout the planning process. The project plan for this area allows for dayuse only, including the proposed boat E:\FR\FM\13JYN1.SGM 13JYN1
