PLO No. 7184 withdrew approximately 4,921 acres of National Forest System land from mining in order to protect the recreational and visual resources of the Elk River Wild and Scenic Corridor. The withdrawal created by PLO No. 7184 will expire on February 13, 2016, unless it is extended.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The USFS has filed an application requesting that the Secretary of the Interior extend PLO No. 7184 (61 FR 5719 as corrected by 61 FR 24948 (1996)), which withdrew certain lands in Curry County, Oregon from location and entry under the United States mining laws (30 U.S.C. Ch. 2) for an additional 20-year term, subject to valid existing rights. PLO No. 7184, as corrected, is incorporated herein by reference. The purpose of the proposed withdrawal extension is to ensure the continued protection of the recreational and visual resources of the Elk River Wild and Scenic Corridor.

This exemption provides relief from certain prohibitions in section 406(b) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) and from the taxes imposed by section 4975(a) and (b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the Code) by reason of Code section 4975(c)(1)(E) or (F). In order to insure that the exemption is not abused, that the rights of participants and beneficiaries are protected, and that the exemption’s conditions are being complied with, the Department has included in the exemption five information collection requirements.
