SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, proposes

administrative alternatives to management of the land while completing 
the reports necessary for final determination on land use. This notice 
closes this land to location and entry under the mining laws for up to 
two years. The land remains open to mineral leasing and to Forest 
Service management.

DATES: Comments on this proposed withdrawal or requests for public 
meeting must be received on or before August 10, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Comments and requests for a meeting should be sent to the 
Colorado State Director, Bureau of Land Management, 2850 Youngfield 
Street, Lakewood, Colorado 80215-7076.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Alexa Watson, 303-239-3796.

    Sec. 7, lot 33.

    The area described contains approximately 1.57 acres of National

notice, all persons who wish to submit comments, suggestions, or

CFR 2310.3-1(c)(2).
    This application will be processed in accordance with the 
regulations set forth in 43 CFR part 2310.
    For a period of two years from the date of publication in the
