Resource Management Plans, etc.: Medford District; Jackson City, 
Oregon

ACTION: Notice of intent to prepare a land use plan amendment.

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

SUMMARY: The Medford District is proposing to amend the Medford 
District Resource Management Plan to allow the disposal of five (5) 
isolated parcels of public land in Jackson County, Oregon. The five 
parcels total 80.97 acres.
    The public, state and local governments, and other federal agencies 
are invited to participate in the amendment process. Identification of 
issues, concerns or other written comments pertaining to this notice 
will be accepted until August 15, 1997.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed plan amendment would allow the 
sale of five parcels of public land described as follows:

Williamette Meridian, Oregon

T.36 S., R. 1 E.,
    Section 6, SE\1/4\SE\1/4\; 40.00 acres
T.37 S., R. 3 W.,
    Section 1, Lot 8; 13.82 acres
T.38 S., R. 2 W.,
    Section 28, Lot 1; 5.00 acres
T.38 S., R. 4 W.,
    Section 25, Lot 4; 12.15 acres
T.39 S., R. 2 W.,

[[Page 35833]]

    Section 18, NW\1/4\NE\1/4\SW\1/4\; 10.00 acres

    These parcels are small and isolated with no legal access. The 
proposal is to sell the parcels to the adjoining landowners by direct 
sale or by modified competitive sale where there is more than one 
adjoining landowner. Where survey hiatuses and unintentional 
encroachments on public lands are discovered in the future, which meet 
the disposal criteria, the lands may be automatically assigned Zone 3 
for disposal.
    Public participation in the amendment process will include 
publication of this notice in the Federal Register and local newspapers 
and the sending of this notice to state and local governments, private 
individuals, and interested parties. Depending on the amount of public 
interest, a public meeting may be held in the Medford District Office.

COMMENTS: Any comments on this notice should be mailed by close of 
business on August 15, 1997, to the Bureau of Land Management, Medford 
District Office, 3040 Biddle Road, Medford, Oregon 97504.
