    By virtue of the authority vested in the Secretary of the Interior 
by the Recreation and Public Purposes Act of June 14, 1926, as amended; 
43 U.S.C. 869; 869-4; it is ordered as follows:
    1. Pursuant to the regulations in 43 CFR 2091.7-1(b)(1) and the 
authority delegated to me by the BLM Manual section 1203 (48 FR 85), 
the classification decision of October 2, 1978 which classified 40 
acres of public land as suitable for recreation and public purposes 
under the Act of June 14, 1926, as amended; 43 U.S.C. 869, 869-4; under 
serial number WYW57848 is hereby revoked. The lands are described as 
follows:

Sixth Principal Meridian, Wyoming

T. 49 N., R. 72 W.,
    Sec. 12: NE\1/4\SW\1/4\

    The area described contains 40 acres in Campbell County.

    2. At 9 a.m. on March 22, 1994, the lands will be opened to the 
operation of the public land laws generally, subject to valid existing 
rights, the provisions of existing withdrawals, and the requirements of 
applicable law. All valid applications received at or prior to 9 a.m. 
on March 22, 1994, shall be considered as simultaneously filed at that 
time. Those received thereafter shall be considered in the order of 
filing.
    3. At 9 a.m. on March 22, 1994 the lands will be opened to location 
and entry under the United States mining laws. Appropriation of any of 
the lands described in this order under the general 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. Acts required to 
establish a location and to initiate a right of possession are governed 
by State Law where not in conflict with Federal law. The Bureau of Land 
Management will not intervene in disputes between rival locators over 
possessory rights since Congress has provided for such determinations 
in legal courts.

    Dated: February 4, 1994.
David A. Pomerinke,
Area Manager.
