SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
following described public lands have
been examined and found suitable for
direct sale under the authority of
Section 203 of FLPMA, as amended (43
U.S.C. 1713):
Sixth Principal Meridian
T. 56 N., R. 79 W.,
Tract 51 B;
Sec. 17, lot 1;
Sec. 23, lot 1;
Sec. 26, lots 1 and 2;
T. 55 N., R. 80 W.,
Sec. 23, NE1/4SE1/4;
Sec. 24, SW1/4SW1/4;
Sec. 26, NE1/4SW1/4.
The areas described aggregate 208.12 acres
in Sheridan County, Wyoming, according to
the official plat of the survey of the said land
on file with the BLM.
The proposed direct sale is in
conformance with the BLM Buffalo
Resource Management Plan (RMP)
approved on October 4, 1985. The
parcels are identified for disposal in the
RMP Record of Decision, pages 13 and
14 and Map 5. Additionally,
Maintenance Plan Change #20120720
was added to comply with guidelines of
the Department of the Interior and the
BLM. The Maintenance Plan Change
updated the land disposal map and
included a text version of all legal
descriptions of parcels identified for
consideration for disposal. The BLM is
offering the parcels by direct sale
pursuant to 43 CFR 2711.3–3(a)(4) due
to the adjoining land ownership by FRI.
All of the parcels are surrounded by FRI
lands, lie within its fenced boundaries,
and lack public access. The parcels are
not needed for any other Federal
purpose and have become difficult and
uneconomical to manage. The
regulations at 43 CFR 2711.3–3(a)
permit the BLM to make direct sales of
public lands when a competitive sale is
not appropriate and the public interest
would be best served by a direct sale.
Conveyance of the identified public
lands will be subject to valid existing
rights and encumbrances of record,
including but not limited to, rights-ofway for roads and public utilities. All
minerals will be reserved to the United
States. In addition to this Notice of
Realty Action (NORA), notice of this
sale will also be published once a week
for 3 weeks in the Sheridan Daily Press.
Upon publication of this NORA, and
until completion of the sale, the BLM is

no longer accepting land use

public lands, except applications for the
amendment of previously filed right-ofway applications or existing
authorizations to increase the term of
the grants in accordance with 43 CFR
2807.15 and 2886.15.
The public lands will not be offered
for sale until February 18, 2014, at the
appraised fair market value. The patent,
if issued, will be subject to the following
reservations:
1. A right-of-way thereon for ditches
or canals constructed by the authority of
the United States, Act of August 30,
1890 (43 U.S.C. 945); and
2. All minerals, together with the right
to prospect for, mine, and remove such
deposits from the same under applicable
law and such regulations as the
Secretary of the Interior may prescribe.
The patent will be subject to all valid
existing rights documented on the

of patent issuance. Interested parties
