Proposed Plan Amendment; Virgin River Management Framework Plan

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice of availability.

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

SUMMARY: This notice is to advise the public that the proposed planning 
amendment and associated environmental assessment for the Virgin River 
Management Framework Plan, Dixie Resource Area, Cedar City District, 
have been completed. The proposed decision provides for the 
classification of 248.58 acres of public land as suitable for 
Recreation and Public Purposes. The following described lands would be 
affected:

Salt Lake Meridian

T. 42 S., R. 14 W.,
    Sec. 3, lots 6, 7, 9-11, 18, and 20.

DATES: Protests should be received by August 4, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Protests should be sent to the Director, Bureau of Land 
Management (760), MS 406 LS, 1849 C Street, NW, Washington D.C. 20240.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Randy Massey, Realty Specialist, Dixie 
Resource Area, Bureau of Land Management, 345 E. Riverside Drive, St. 
George, Utah 84770, (801) 673-4654 ext. 274.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This plan amendment is necessary because the 
lands identified are not currently identified for disposal in the 
existing Virgin River Management Framework Plan. The proposed plan 
amendment would allow Washington County to lease 248.58 acres of land, 
under the Recreation and Public Purposes Act, for use as a fairground, 
race track, and associated facilities. Once development is completed, 
the land could be conveyed to the County. There were no significant 
impacts identified in the

Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 and 43 CFR part 1610. The 
proposed planning amendment is subject to protest from any adversely
