of the Federal Oil and Gas Royalty

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land
Management (BLM) proposes to sell a
parcel of public land totaling 40 acres in
Lincoln County, Idaho, to the owner of
the surrounding private land for the
appraised fair market value of $14,000.
The private land surrounding the public
land is owned by Alan Woodland.
DATES: Comments regarding the
proposed sale must be received by the
BLM August 5, 2010.
ADDRESSES: Written comments
concerning the proposed sale should be
sent to Ruth A. Miller, BLM Shoshone
Field Manager, 400 West F Street,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tara

Field Office, 400 West F Street,
Shoshone, Idaho 83352 or (208) 732–

The
following described public land is being
proposed for direct sale to Alan
Woodland in accordance with Sections
203 and 209 of the Federal Land Policy
and Management Act of 1976, as
amended, (43 U.S.C. 1713 and 1719), at
no less than the appraised fair market
value:
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Boise Meridian
T. 6 S., R. 22 E,
Sec. 29, SW1⁄4SW1⁄4.
The area described contains 40 acres in
Lincoln County.
The appraised fair market value is
$14,000. The public land is identified as
suitable for disposal in the 1985 BLM
Monument Resource Management Plan,
as amended, and is not needed for any
other Federal purposes. The direct sale
will allow for the subject parcel to be
formally consolidated with adjacent
private property, the owner of which
has currently holds a land use
authorization (Cooperative Farm
Management Agreement or Land Use
Permit) for agricultural purposes.
Disposal would alleviate the processing
and administration of these land use
authorizations, as well as generate
funding pursuant to the Federal Land
Transaction Facilitation Act (FLTFA)
that can be utilized to purchase lands
with higher resource values.
The identified public land was
identified for disposal in an approved
land use plan in effect on or before July
25, 2000; therefore, proceeds from this
sale will be deposited into the Federal
Land Disposal Account authorized
under Section 206 of FLTFA. Under
FLTFA, revenues generated from the
sale or disposal of lands identified for
disposal in land use plans as of July 25,
2000, are directed to an account that can
be used by the BLM, the U.S. Forest
Service, the National Park Service, and
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to
purchase lands located within Federally
designated areas or with higher resource
values from willing sellers.
Regulations contained in 43 CFR
2711.3–3 make allowances for direct
sales when a competitive sale is
inappropriate and when the public
interest would best be served by a direct
sale, including the need to recognize an
authorized use, such as an existing
business which could suffer a
substantial economic loss if the tract
were purchased by someone other than
the authorized user. In accordance with

sroberts on DSKD5P82C1PROD with NOTICES
35084
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 118 / Monday, June 21, 2010 / Notices
43 CFR 2710, the BLM authorized
officer finds that the public interest
would best be served by authorizing the
direct sale to Alan Woodland, which
would allow the identified lands to be
consolidated with Alan Woodland’s
adjacent private property to continue to
be used for agricultural purposes.
It has been determined that the
subject parcel contains no known
mineral values; therefore, the BLM
proposes that the conveyance of the
Federal mineral interests occur
simultaneously with the sale of the
land. On August 25, 2008, the above
described land was segregated from
appropriation under the public land
laws, including the mining laws. The
segregation terminates (1) Upon
issuance of a patent, (2) publication in
the Federal Register of a termination of
the segregation, or (3) 2 years from the
date of segregation, whichever occurs
first. The lands will not be sold until at
least 60 days after the date of
publication in the Federal Register.
Alan Woodland will be required to pay
a $50 nonrefundable filing fee for the
conveyance of the available mineral
interests. Any patent issued will contain
the following terms, conditions, and
reservations:
1. A reservation of right-of-way to the
United States for ditches and canals
constructed by the authority of the
United States under the Act of August
30, 1890, 43 U.S.C. 945;
2. A condition that the conveyance be
subject to all valid existing rights of
record;
3. A notice and indemnification
statement under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation
and Liability Act (42 U.S.C. 9620(W)),
indemnifying and holding the United
States harmless from any release of
hazardous materials that may have
occurred; and
4. Additional terms and conditions
that the authorized officer deems
appropriate.
Detailed information concerning the
proposed land sale including the
appraisal, planning and environmental
documents and a mineral report are
available for review at the Shoshone
Field Office at the location identified in
the ADDRESSES section above. Normal
business hours are 7:45 a.m. to 4:30
p.m., Monday through Friday, except for
Federal holidays.
Public Comments: Public comments
regarding the proposed sale may be
submitted in writing to the BLM
Shoshone Field Manager (see
ADDRESSES section) on or before August
5, 2010. Comments received in
electronic form, such as e-mail or
facsimile, will not be considered. Any

adverse comments regarding the
proposed sale will be reviewed by the
BLM Idaho State Director or other
authorized official of the Department of
the Interior, who may sustain, vacate, or
modify this realty action in whole or in
part. In the absence of timely filed
objections, this realty action will
become the final determination of the
Department of the Interior.
Before including your address, phone
number, e-mail address, or other
personal identifying information in your
comment, be advised that your entire
comment—including your personal
identifying information—may be made
publicly available at any time. While
