SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Subject to valid existing rights, the 
Federal lands were segregated from appropriation under the public land 
laws and mineral laws for a period not to exceed 5 years from the date 
of notation on the public land records. The segregative effect will 
terminate upon issuance of patent, upon publication in the Federal 
Register of termination of the segregation, or 5 years from the date of

    Final determination on disposal will await completion of an 
environmental assessment. Upon completion of the environmental 
assessment and land use decision, a Notice of Exchange Proposal or a

action and associated information.
    This disposal action is consistent with Bureau of Land Management 
policies and the Billings Resource Management Plan/Environmental Impact 
Statement, 1984.
