The BLM proposes to convert this permit to a renewable 15-year lease for the same purpose at no less than fair market value.

The area is currently fenced for security and has dormitory-style housing, a dining area, a laundry, recreational amenities, and related appurtenances to operate the facility. The lands are available for lease for the abovedescribed purpose. Any lease will be issued on a non-competitive basis, because, in the judgment of the authorized officer, no competitive interest exists and/or competitive bidding would represent unfair competitive and economic disadvantage to the existing permittee.
