AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Public Land Order.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This Order partially revokes five Public Land Orders (PLO) 
insofar as they affect approximately 229,715 acres of public lands. The 
lands were reserved for study and classification as appropriate by the 
Department of the Interior (DOI). The purposes for which these lands 
were withdrawn no longer exist as described in the analysis and 
decisions made through the Bay Resource Management Plan (RMP) and 
associated Environmental Impact Statement. Of the lands described 
within the Orders being revoked, approximately 83.30 acres have been 
conveyed out of Federal ownership and the revocation of the Order on 
these lands is a record-clearing action only.

DATES: This Public Land Order takes effect on October 4, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This Order follows the recommendations made 
in the BLM's 2008 Bay RMP which serves as the detailed statement 
required under the National Environmental Policy Act, Section 
102(2)(C). PLO No. 5179 withdrew lands in aid of legislation concerning 
addition to or creation of units of the National Park, National Forest, 
Wildlife Refuge, and Wild and Scenic Rivers systems, and to allow for 
classification of the lands. Any additions to or creation of new units 
of National Parks, National Forests, Wildlife Refuges, or Wild and 
Scenic Rivers from the land withdrawn by Public Land Order No. 5179 
were met by the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act 
(ANILCA). The classification of the lands withdrawn by PLO No. 5179 has 
been satisfied by the analysis conducted during the development of the 
BLM's 2008 Bay RMP. PLO No. 5180 withdrew lands to allow for 
classification and for the protection of the public interest in these 
lands. The classification and protection of the public interest in the 
lands withdrawn by PLO No. 5180 has been satisfied by the analysis 
conducted during the development of the BLM's 2008 Bay RMP. PLO No. 
5181 withdrew lands to allow for classification and study as possible 
additions to the National Wildlife Refuge System. The purposes of PLO 
No. 5181 were satisfied by both the ANILCA and the analysis conducted 
during the development of the BLM's 2008 Bay RMP. PLO No. 5184 withdrew 
lands to allow for classification or reclassification of some of areas 
withdrawn by Section 11 of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act 
(ANCSA). These purposes were satisfied by the analysis conducted during 
the development of the BLM's 2008 Bay RMP. PLO No. 5188 withdrew lands 
to allow for classification and protection of the public interest in 
the lands in former reservations for use and benefit of Alaska Natives. 
These purposes were satisfied by the analysis conducted during the 
development of the BLM's 2008 Bay RMP. In addition, PLO No. 5418, 
effective March 1974, amends PLO No. 5180 to add all unreserved public 
lands in Alaska, or those which may become unreserved unless specified 
by order at that time. Upon revocation, the lands in this Order will 
not be subject to the terms and conditions of PLO No. 5418, which 
amended PLO No. 5180, but will continue to be subject to the terms and 
conditions of any other withdrawal, segregation of record, and other 
applicable law. Some lands covered by the revocation of the above 
listed withdrawals have been top filed by the State of Alaska per the 
Alaska Statehood Act. Upon revocation of the above listed withdrawals, 
the top filings will convert to selections. Lands validly selected or 
conveyed to the State of Alaska are not subject to Sec. 810 of the 
ANLICA as they no longer fit the definition of public lands. The Sec. 
810 analysis for the approved Bay RMP found no significant restriction 
on subsistence uses.

appropriation under the public land laws, including selection by the 
State of Alaska under the Alaska Statehood Act, location and entry 
under the mining laws, leasing under the Mineral Leasing Act of 
February 25, 1920, as amended, and selection by Regional Corporations 
under section 12 of the ANCSA, subject to valid existing rights, the 
provisions of existing withdrawals, other segregations of record, and 
the requirements of applicable law. All valid applications received at 
or prior to 8 a.m. AKST on November 5, 2018, shall be considered as 
simultaneously filed at that time. Those received thereafter shall be 
considered in the order of filing. Appropriation of any of the lands 
referenced in this order under the mining laws prior to the date and 
time of restoration is unauthorized. Any such attempted appropriation, 
including attempted adverse possession under 30 U.S.C. 38, shall vest 
no rights against the United States. State law governs acts required to 
establish a location and to initiate a right of possession where not in 
conflict with Federal law. The BLM will not intervene in disputes 
between rival locators over possessory rights since Congress has 
provided for such determinations in local courts.
    5. The lands described in paragraph 2 have been conveyed out of 
Federal ownership. For those lands this is a record clearing action 
only.

    Dated: September 26, 2018.
