Public Land Order No. 7315; Partial Revocation of Secretarial 
Orders Dated October 20, 1917, and February 5, 1924; Wyoming

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Public land order.

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

SUMMARY: This order partially revokes two Secretarial orders insofar as 
they affect 178.31 acres of public land withdrawn for stock driveway 
purposes. The land is no longer needed for the purpose for which it was 
withdrawn. The revocation is needed to permit disposal of land under 
the Recreation and Public Purposes Act, as well as other disposals by 
sale and exchange. This action will open the land to surface entry, 
unless closed by overlapping withdrawals or temporary segregations of 
record. The land has been and will remain open to mining and mineral 
leasing.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 16, 1998.

Janet Booth, BLM Wyoming State Office, PO Box 1828, Cheyenne, Wyoming
