Public Land Order No. 7199; Revocation of Secretarial Order Dated 
June 6, 1922, and Partial Revocation of Executive Order Dated December 
31, 1912; California

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.
ACTION: Public land order.

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

SUMMARY: This order revokes, in its entirety, a Secretarial Order as it 
affects 21.50 acres of public lands withdrawn for Power Site 
Classification No. 43. This order also revokes an Executive Order 
insofar as it affects 60 acres of public lands withdrawn for Power Site 
Reserve No. 328. This action is necessary to permit completion of a 
land exchange under Section 206 of the Federal Land Policy and 
Management Act of 1976. This action will open the lands to surface 
entry unless closed by overlapping withdrawals or temporary 
segregations of record. The lands have been and will remain open to 
mineral leasing, but they are closed to mining due to being located 
within a power project withdrawal. The Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission has concurred with this action.

EFFECTIVE DATE: September 6, 1996.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Duane Marti, BLM California State 
Office (CA-931.4), 2800 Cottage Way, Sacramento, CA 95825, 916-979-
2858.
