DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
43 CFR Public Land Order 7186

[ID-933-1430-01; IDI-05280 01]


Partial Revocation of Public Land Order No. 1374; Idaho

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Public Land Order.

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

SUMMARY: This order revokes a public land order insofar as it affects 
152.60 acres of National Forest System land withdrawn by the Department 
of Agriculture, Forest Service, for the Johnson Park Administrative 
Site in the Payette National Forest. The land is no longer needed for 
the purpose for which it was withdrawn. This action will open the land 
to surface entry and mining, and will permit the Forest Service to 
dispose of the land by exchange. The land has been and will remain open 
to mineral leasing.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 28, 1996.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Larry R. Lievsay, BLM Idaho State 
Office, 3380 Americana Terrace, Boise, Idaho 83706-2500, 208-384-3166.
    By virtue of the authority vested in the Secretary of the Interior 
by Section 204 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, 
43 U.S.C. 1714 (1988), it is ordered as follows:
    1. Public Land Order No. 1374, which withdrew National Forest 
System land for the Forest Service's Johnson Park Administrative Site, 
is hereby revoked insofar as it affects the following described land:

Boise Meridian

T. 17 N., R. 2 W.,
    Sec. 30, lots 3 and 4, and E\1/2\SW\1/4\.

    The area described contains 152.60 acres in Washington County.

    2. At 9 a.m. on March 28, 1996, the land shall be opened to such 
forms of disposition as may by law be made of National Forest System 
land, including 

[[Page 7224]]
location and entry under the United States mining laws, subject to 
valid existing rights, the provisions of existing withdrawals, other 
segregations of record, and the requirements of applicable law. 
Appropriation of land described in this order under the general mining 
laws prior to the date and time of restoration is unauthorized. Any 
such attempted appropriation, including attempted adverse possession 
under 30 U.S.C. 38 (1988), shall vest no rights against the United 
States. Acts required to establish a location and to initiate a right 
of possession are governed by State law where not in conflict with 
Federal law. The Bureau of Land Management will not intervene in 
disputes between rival locators over possessory rights since Congress 
has provided for such determinations in local courts.

    Dated: February 13, 1996.
Bob Armstrong,
Assistant Secretary of the Interior.
