Public Land, Oklahoma County, OK
Bureau of Land Management,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice of realty action.
AGENCY:
The Bureau of Land
Management (BLM) is offering to sell a
parcel of public land totaling 2.78 acres
as a non-competitive direct sale at not
less than the appraised fair market value
(FMV) of $175,000, to the City of
Oklahoma City. The sale is pursuant to
Section 203 of the Federal Land Policy
and Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA),
and BLM regulations. In accordance
with BLM regulations, the BLM
authorized officer finds that the public
interest would be best served by
resolving the inadvertent unauthorized
use of public lands by the City of
Oklahoma City whose improvements
occupy portions of the parcel in
question through a direct sale to the
City. Such a sale would also protect
existing equities in the current use of
the land.
DATES: Submit written comments to the
BLM at the address below. The BLM
must receive comments on or before
November 10, 2014.

hours.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The BLM
will conduct a direct sale for the
following parcel of public land located
at 3501 SW 15th Street, Oklahoma City,
Oklahoma. The land is described as:
Indian Meridian, Oklahoma
asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
T. 11 N., R. 4 W.,
Sec. 12, lot 8.
The area described contains 2.78 acres.
The parcel is a single triangularshaped tract and is fully surrounded by
private and city-owned land. The
property has improvements such as a
city street and a parking lot and
landscaping to support the adjacent Dell
Campus.
Upon publication of this Notice in the
Federal Register, the described land
will be segregated from all forms of
appropriation under the public land
laws, including the mining laws, except
for the sale provisions of FLPMA. Upon
publication of this Notice and until
completion of the sale, the BLM will no
longer accept land use applications
affecting the identified public lands,
except applications for the amendment
of previously filed right-of-way
applications or existing authorizations
to increase the term of the grants in
accordance with 43 CFR 2807.15 and
2886.15. The land would not be sold
until at least November 24, 2014. The
segregation will terminate upon
issuance of a patent, publication in the
Federal Register of a termination of the
segregation, or September 26, 2016,
unless it is extended by the BLM State
Director, in accordance with 43 CFR
2711.1–2(d) prior to the termination
date.
The authority for the sale of public
lands is found in Section 203 of FLPMA
(43 U.S.C. 1713) and regulation 43 CFR
2710. In accordance with 43 CFR
2710.0–6(3)(iii) and 43 CFR 2711.3–3(5),
the BLM authorized officer finds that a
direct sale would be appropriate here
because it would best serve the public
interest by resolving the inadvertent
unauthorized use of those lands by the
City of Oklahoma City. A direct sale
would also be consistent with the
adjoining ownership pattern.
The parcel is not needed for any other
Federal purpose, and it has been
determined that the proposed action
conforms to the 1994 BLM Oklahoma
Resource Management Plan (RMP),
goals, objectives, and management
actions. The RMP provides for disposal
to resolve longstanding instances of
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:41 Sep 23, 2014
Jkt 232001
unauthorized use or occupancy through
land sale if the disposal criteria are met.
The parcel of land is difficult and
uneconomic to manage as part of the
public lands and meets the criteria for
disposal from Federal ownership. The
City of Oklahoma City occupied the
proposed land and constructed a road
and a landfill. According to soil-boring
tests, the landfill did accept some trash
at the site. The landfill activities took
place between 1950 and the late 1970s.
The site has since been remediated and
redeveloped for other purposes by the
City.
Federal law requires purchasers to be
citizens of the United States; 18 years of
age or older; and, in the case of
corporations, to be subject to the laws of
any State or of the United States; a State,
State instrumentality or political
subdivision authorized to hold property
or an entity legally capable of conveying
and holding lands or interest therein
under the laws of the State of
Oklahoma. The purchaser will be given
30 days from receipt of a written offer
to submit a deposit of 30 percent of the
FMV appraisal of the parcel and 180
days thereafter to submit the remainder
of the full purchase price. Payment must
be in the form of a certified check,
postal money order, bank draft, or
cashier’s check made payable in U.S.
dollars to the order of the U.S.
Department of the Interior—BLM. The
BLM will not accept any personal or
business checks. Failure to meet
conditions of this direct sale will void
the sale and any funds received will be
forfeited. If the balance of the purchase
price is not received within the 180
days, the deposit shall be forfeited to the
United States and the parcel withdrawn
from sale.
The parcel is subject to limitations
prescribed by law and regulation, and
certain encumbrances in favor of third
parties. Prior to patent issuance, a
holder of any right-of-way within the
sale parcels will be given the
opportunity to amend the right-of-way
for conversion to a new term, including
perpetuity, if applicable, or conversion
to an easement. The BLM will notify
valid existing right-of-way holders of
record of their ability to convert their
compliant rights-of-way to perpetual
rights-of-way or easement. In
accordance with Federal regulations at
43 CFR 2807.15, once notified, each
valid holder may apply for the
conversion of their current
authorization.
The patent, if issued, would be
subject to the following terms and
conditions, and reservations:
1. A reservation of a right-of-way for
ditches and canals constructed by
PO 00000

authority of the United States under of
the Act of August 30, 1890, (43 U.S.C.
945);
2. A reservation of all minerals
deposits in the land so patented, and to
it, or persons authorized by it, 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
are reserved to the United States,
together with all necessary access and
exit rights;
3. The parcels are subject to valid
existing rights; and
4. An appropriate indemnification
clause protecting the United States from
claims arising out of the lessees/
patentee’s use, occupancy, or
occupation on the leased/patented
lands.
Information concerning the sale,
encumbrances of record, appraisals,
reservations, procedures and conditions,
and other environmental documents
that may appear in the BLM public files
for the proposed sale parcels are
available for review during business
hours, Monday through Friday, at the
BLM Oklahoma Field Office, except
during Federal holidays.
Comments received in electronic
form, such as email or facsimile, will
not be considered. Submit comments to
the address in the ADDRESSES section.
Before including your address, phone
number, email address, or other
personal identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information— may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.
Any adverse comments regarding the
proposed sale will be reviewed by the
BLM 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.
