The area described contains 162.12
acres, more or less.
The total area described contains
541.5 acres, more or less.
In accordance with the RPPA, the City
of Redmond has filed an application to
purchase the above-described lands to
expand its wastewater treatment facility.
The current facility is operating over
capacity, and it is necessary for the City
to acquire these public lands to expand
its facilities to ensure that anticipated
future population growth can be
accommodated.
If these public lands are conveyed to
the City of Redmond under the RPPA,
the United States will retain a limited
reversionary interest dictating that the
conveyed lands would revert back to the
United States unless substantially used
in accordance with an approved plan
and schedule of development on or
before five years after the conveyance.
Under no circumstances will any
portion of these lands be reconveyed
back to the United States that have been
used for solid waste disposal or for any
other purpose that the authorized officer
determines may have resulted in the
disposal, placement, or release of any
hazardous substances. Prior to
conveyance of the lands, a Phase I
Environmental Site Assessment would
be conducted to ensure BLM
compliance with section 120(h) of the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability
Act. Under the provision of the RPPA,
government entities requesting the
acquisition of BLM-administered land
for public health-related facilities
qualify for special pricing at $10 per
acre, and the purchase price of the
requested 541.5 acres would therefore
be $5,415.00.
A copy of this notice will be
published in the newspaper of local
circulation once a week for three
consecutive weeks and posted to the
BLM’s National Environmental Policy
Act register ePlanning: https://
eplanning.blm.gov/eplanning-ui/
project/2018065/510.
Upon publication of this notice in the
Federal Register, the lands will be
segregated from all other forms of
appropriation under the public land
laws, including location under the
mining laws, except for conveyance
under the RPPA and leasing under the
mineral leasing laws.
The conveyance of the lands, if it
occurs, will be subject to the following
terms, conditions, and reservations:
1. A right-of-way thereon for ditches
and canals constructed by the authority
of the United States pursuant to the Act
of August 30, 1890 (43 U.S.C. 945).
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:11 Sep 17, 2024
Jkt 262001
2. Provisions of the RPPA and all
applicable regulations of the Secretary
of the Interior.
3. All mineral deposits in the lands so
conveyed, and the right to prospect for,
mine, and remove such deposits from
the same under applicable law and
regulations as established by the
Secretary of the Interior are reserved to
the United States, together with all
necessary access and exit rights.
4. Conveyance of the parcels is subject
to valid existing rights.
5. An appropriate indemnification
clause protecting the United States from
claims arising out of the acquiring
entity’s use, occupancy, or occupation
on the conveyed lands.
6. Any other reservations that the
authorized officer determines
appropriate to ensure public access and
proper management of Federal lands
and interests therein.
7. No portion of the land shall under
any circumstances revert to the United
States if any such portion has been used
for solid waste disposal or for any other
purpose which may result in the
disposal, placement, or release of any
hazardous substance.
Classification Comments: Interested
persons may submit comments
involving the suitability of the lands for
development as a wastewater treatment
facility. Comments on the classification
are restricted to whether the lands are
physically suited for the proposal,
whether the development will maximize
the future use or uses of the lands,
whether the use is consistent with local
planning and zoning, or if the use is
consistent with State and Federal
programs.
Application Comments: Interested
persons may submit comments
regarding the specific use proposed in
the RPPA application and plan of
development, whether the BLM
followed proper administrative
procedures, or any other factor not
directly relating to the suitability of the
lands for use as a wastewater treatment
facility.
Any adverse comments will be
reviewed by the BLM Oregon/
Washington State Director or other
authorized official of the Department of
the Interior, who may sustain, vacate, or
modify this realty action. In the absence
of any adverse comments, the
classification will become effective on
November 18, 2024. The lands will not
be offered for conveyance until after the
classification becomes effective.
Before including your address, phone
number, email address, or other
personal identifying information in any
comment, be aware that your entire
comment, including your personal
