Office, is extending a temporary closure
for an additional 2 years to all public
use, including casual use, to protect
persons, property, and public land and

property, personal injury, or loss of life
in the vicinity of the Community Pit No.
˜
1 in Dona Ana County, New Mexico
DATES: This closure will be in effective
from July 23, 2012 to July 22, 2014.
During the closure period, the BLM will

through reclamation of the site.

(76 FR 36677). The Las Cruces District
Office has initiated the development of
a reclamation plan to determine how the
site will be reclaimed. However, this
planning effort, the acquisition of funds,
and the reclamation process itself will
require additional time to complete.
The temporary closure and
restrictions applicable to the closure are
as follows:
1. The public land to be closed under
this notice is described as:
New Mexico Principal Meridian
T. 22 S., R. 1 E.,
Sec. 19, SW1⁄4NW1⁄4SE1⁄4,
E1⁄2E1⁄2SW1⁄4SW1⁄4SE1⁄4, E1⁄2SW1⁄4SE1⁄4,
S1⁄2N1⁄2SE1⁄4SE1⁄4, S1⁄2SE1⁄4SE1⁄4,
E1⁄2NW1⁄4SW1⁄4SE1⁄4.
Containing 67.5 acres, more or less.
All public use, including casual use,
is prohibited on this 67.5-acre parcel.
Casual use is defined as any short-term,
non-commercial activity which does not
noticeably damage or disturb the public
land, resources, or improvements.
Closure of this parcel is a consequence
of unsafe conditions related to past
mining resulting in steep highwalls in
excess of 150 feet, abrupt precipices and
ledges, and loose unconsolidated walls
of rock.
2. This closure does not affect the
ability of local, State, or Federal officials
in the performance of their duties in the
area.
3. This Notice will be posted along
the public roads where this closure is in
effect.
4. The following persons are exempt
from this closure order:
a. Federal, State, or local law
enforcement officers while acting within
the scope of their official duties; and
b. Any person who obtains, or
currently is in possession of, an
authorization or permit from the BLM
for use of the land identified in this
closure.
Violations of this closure and
restrictions are punishable by fines not
to exceed $1,000 and/or imprisonment
not to exceed 1 year. These actions are
taken to protect public health and
safety.
The Las Cruces District Office has
completed Environmental Assessment
(EA) (DOI–BLM–NM–LCDO–2010–
0086–EA) to close the pit to public use,
evaluating the potential reclamation of
the site, and analyzing the hazards to
public health and safety until such time
as reclamation of the site would be
completed, or for 2 years, whichever is
later.
Copies of this closure order and maps
showing the location are available from
the Las Cruces District Office, 1800
Marquess Street, Las Cruces, New
Mexico 88005.
