the Florida Resource Management Plan (RMP), which was approved in 1995. 
A plan amendment is needed to determine the future disposition and

lands located within Polk County, FL, described as:

    Sec. 10, Lot 2.

    The area described contains 22.27 acres.

    The public is invited to participate in the planning process,
