The objective is to allow
consolidation of the surface and
subsurface mineral interests when either
one of the following conditions exist:
(1) There are no known mineral values
in the land; or (2) Where continued
Federal ownership of the mineral
interests interferes with or precludes
appropriate non-mineral development
and such development is a more
beneficial use of the land than mineral
development.
An application was filed for the sale
and conveyance of the federally-owned
mineral interests in the above-described
tract of land. Subject to valid existing
rights, on November 15, 2011 the
federally-owned mineral interests in the
land described above are hereby
segregated from appropriation under the
public land laws, including the mining
laws, while the application is being
processed to determine if either one of
the two specified conditions exists, and
if so, to otherwise comply with the
procedural requirements of 43 CFR part
2720. The temporary segregative effect
shall terminate: (1) Upon issuance of a
patent or other document of conveyance
as to such mineral interests; (2) Upon
final rejection of the application; or (3)
