This notice segregates the lands for up to two years from location and entry under the United States mining laws, from leasing under the mineral leasing laws, and from disposal of mineral materials, subject to valid existing rights; initiates a 90-day public comment period on the proposed withdrawal; and notifies the public that one public meeting will be held regarding the application.

A map and other information related to the withdrawal application are available at the Bureau of Land Management Rio Puerco Field Office, 100 Sun Avenue, Suite 330, Albuquerque, NM 87109. Details regarding this project are also available for review on the BLM ePlanning website https://eplanning. blm.gov/eplanning-ui/project/2026585/ 510. The BLM has filed a petition/application requesting the Secretary of the Interior withdraw public lands situated within the boundaries of the area described below, known as the Placitas area. The purpose of the proposed withdrawal is to protect, preserve, and promote the scenic integrity, cultural importance, recreational values, and wildlife habitat connectivity within the Placitas area. The proposed withdrawal area’s landscape character and scenic intergrity are characterized by intact conifer woodland, pinyon-juniper woodland, and savanna with minimal visual disruption. One tract is remote and characterized by moderately steep slopes with pinon and juniper trees intermixed with shrubs and sparse grasses, offering panoramic views of the Sandia Mountains and middle Rio Grande Valley. The land is considered ancestral and sacred to the Pueblos of San Felipe and Santa Ana and is rich in archaeological resources that span thousands of years of human history. The four parcels are in a natural, scenic setting with easy proximity to a major metropolitan area, which makes the location popular for dispersed recreational activities such as hiking, horseback riding, dispersed camping, hunting, shooting, sightseeing, mountain biking, and off-road driving. Additionally, the area has been identified as a priority wildlife linkage between the Sandia Mountains and mountain ranges to the north for big game species including deer, elk, bear, and cougar. Withdrawal of this area is SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice of Proposed Withdrawal and Public Meeting, New Mexico SUMMARY: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: PO 00000 Frm 00044 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 desirable for the promotion of habitat connectivity. Existing uses of the public lands may continue in accordance with their terms and conditions. Temporary uses that may be permitted during the segregation period are leases, licenses, permits, rights-of-way, and other uses consistent with the October 1992 Rio Puerco Resource Management Plan, as amended. The legal description is as follows: New Mexico Principal Meridian, New Mexico San Antonio de las Huertas Grant, Parcel C. Town of Tejon Grant, Tract 40.

The area aggregates 4,212.98 acres. The Secretary approved the BLM’s petition. Therefore, it constitutes a withdrawal proposal of the Secretary of the Interior (43 CFR 2310.1–3(e)). The use of a right-of-way, interagency agreement, or cooperative agreement would not adequately constrain mineral location and surface entry, which could adversely affect ongoing management activities, resulting in land use conflicts as well as irretrievable loss of natural resources. Licenses, permits, cooperative agreements, or discretionary land use authorizations of a temporary nature that would not significantly impact the values to be protected by the requested withdrawal may be allowed with the approval of the authorized officer of the BLM during the temporary segregation period. For a period until December 19, 2023, persons who wish to submit comments, suggestions, or objections related to the withdrawal application may present their views in writing to the ADDRESS listed above.
