srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Segregation of Lands: An Interim
Rule, published in the Federal Register
(76 FR 23198) on April 26, 2011,
amended the BLM regulations found in
43 CFR parts 2090 and 2800 to provide
provisions to allow the BLM to
temporarily segregate from the operation
of the public land laws, by publication
of a Federal Register notice, public
lands included in a pending solar
energy generation ROW application in
order to promote the orderly
administration of the public lands.
Upon segregation under the Interim
Rule, such lands will not be subject to
appropriation under the public land
laws, including location under the
Mining Law of 1872 (but not the
Mineral Leasing Act or the Materials
Act), subject to valid existing rights, for
a period of up to 2 years.
This segregation is warranted to allow
for the orderly administration of the
public lands to facilitate the
development of valuable renewable
resources and to avoid conflicts between
renewable energy generation and
mining claims. This temporary
segregation does not affect valid existing
rights in mining claims located before
this segregation notice. Licenses,
permits, cooperative agreements, or
discretionary land use authorizations of
a temporary nature which would not
impact lands identified in this notice
may be allowed with the approval of an
authorized officer of the BLM during the
segregative period.
The lands segregated under this
Notice are legally described as follows:
Mount Diablo Meridian

description will be replaced for those
lands upon final approval of the official
plat of survey. The segregation of lands

that is the earliest of the following:
Upon issuance of a decision by the
authorized officer granting, granting
with modifications, or denying the
application for a ROW; automatically at
the end of the 2 year segregation; or
upon publication of a Federal Register
notice of termination of the segregation.
Upon termination of segregation of these
lands, all lands subject to this
segregation will automatically reopen to
appropriation under the public land
laws.
