The BLM proposes to offer the lands to Mrs. Barbara Lubich on a noncompetitive basis pursuant to 43 CFR 2711.3–3(a)(5), because a direct sale would resolve the unauthorized occupancy of these lands and best serve the public interest. Upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register, the above-described lands will be segregated from all forms of appropriation under the public land laws, including mining laws, except for the sale provisions of FLPMA. The segregation will terminate upon issuance of a patent, publication in the Federal Register of a termination of the segregation, or on August 14, 2020, by the BLM Arizona State Director in accordance with 43 CFR 2711.1–2(d) prior to the termination date.

The regulation provides that all other use, absent statutory or other express authority, requires a sales contract or permit. The public land would not be offered for sale to Mrs. Barbara Lubich until at least October 15, 2018, at no less than the appraised fair market value. A copy of the approved appraisal report is available at the address above, see ADDRESSES.
