Proposed Plan Amendment

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: This notice of intent is to advise the public that the Bureau 
of Land Management (BLM) intends to consider a proposal which would 
require amending an existing planning document.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The BLM is proposing to amend the Warm Springs Resource 
Management Plan, which includes BLM-administered lands in Millard 
County, Utah. The purpose of the amendment would be to identify certain 
lands as suitable for transfer to the State of Utah, through State 
indemnity selection, for agricultural purposes.

DATES: The comment period for this proposed plan amendment will 
commence with the date of publication of this notice. Comments must be 
submitted on or before August 24, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Comments on the proposed plan amendment should be sent to F. 
Rex Rowley, Bureau of Land Management, Warm Springs Resource Area 
Manager, 15 East 500 North, P.O. Box 778, Fillmore, Utah 84631. 
Existing planning documents and information are available at the above 
address or telephone (801) 743-6811.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The lands identified for transfer comprise 
200 acres in Millard County described as follows: T. 21 S., R. 19 W., 
Sec. 29, W\1/2\SW\1/4\, E\1/2\SE\1/4\, SW\1/4\SE\1/4\, Salt Lake 
Meridian, Utah. The existing plan does not identify these lands for 
disposal. However, the State of Utah filed a State indemnity selection 
application, UTU-71695, to have 200 acres of Federally owned land and 
interest in land transferred to the State of Utah pursuant to sections 
2275 and 2276 of the Revised Statutes, as amended, (43 U.S.C. 851-852). 
Satisfaction of indemnity selection rights and disposal of parcels for 
that purpose are considered as ``serving the national interest'' in the 
context of Section 102(a)(1) of the Federal Land Policy and Management 
Act of 1976 (FLPMA) and in connection with land use planning. 
Therefore, this proposal appears to have merit and will be considered 
through the plan amendment process.
A.J. Meredith,
Acting State Director.
