SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The purpose of this withdrawal is to
maintain the current condition of the lands identified to protect the

critical winter habitat. Both the public lands and the Federal mineral
interest lands remain open to leasing under the mineral or geothermal
leasing laws. The Upper Colorado River Special Recreation Management

expired on October 15, 2020. A Notice of Proposed Withdrawal and Public
Meeting was published in the Federal Register on July 1, 2022 (87 FR
