AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Coeur d'Alene Office, Idaho.

ACTION: Notice of Restriction Order for Public Land at Blackwell 
Island, Cougar Bay and Ross Point, Order No. ID060-13.

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

SUMMARY: By order, the following closure applies to Blackwell Island, 
described as all public land in Section 11: lot 23 (portion), Section 
14: lots 3-6 (portion) and Section 15: lot 5 (portion), T.50N., R.4W., 
B.M.; Cougar Bay, described as all public land in Section 15, S1/2SW\1/
4\ (portion), and Section 22, N\1/2\ NW\1/4\ (portion), T.50N., R.4W., 
B.M.; and Ross Point, described as all public land in Section 7: lot 5 
(portion) and Section 8: lot 1 (portion) T.50N., R.4W., B.M.:

Overnight camping is prohibited.

    Maps depicting the restricted area are available for public 
inspection at the BLM, Coeur d'Alene Office, 1808 North Third St., 
Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.
    The authority for establishing this restriction is Title 43, Code 
of Federal Regulations, 8364.1.
    This restriction becomes effective immediately and shall remain in 
effect until revoked and/or replaced with supplemental rules.
    This restriction does not apply to:
    (1) Any Federal, State, or local official or member of an organized 
rescue or fire fighting force while in the performance of an official 
duty.
    (2) Any Bureau of Land Management employee, agent, contractor, or 
cooperator while in the performance of an official duty.
    This restriction is necessary because the three sites do not have 
facilities which can accommodate overnight camping and the activities 
associated with long-term occupancy. In addition, due to the small 
acreage of these sites, the general urban surroundings and the 
sensitive combination of resources that are being protected, overnight 
camping is not a compatible recreation use.
    Violation of this order is punishable by a fine not to exceed 
$1,000 and/or imprisonment not to exceed 12 months.
