DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

Bureau of Land Management
[NV-930-1430-01; N-62297]


Notice of Proposed Withdrawal and Intent To Prepare a Planning 
Amendment to the Lahontan Resource Management Plan; Nevada

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management proposes to withdraw 15,757.14 
acres of reserved Federal minerals from mining and 166,906.28 acres of 
public lands from surface entry and mining, but not from sales, 
exchanges, recreation and public purposes, or mineral leasing to 
protect scenic and recreation values. This notice closes the lands from 
settlement, sale, location, and entry under the general land laws, 
including the mining laws, but not from sales, exchanges, recreation 
and public purposes, or mineral leasing. In addition, any non-Federal 
lands acquired through exchange, donation, or purchase within the 
boundaries of the described plan area would be closed to surface entry 
and mining during the 2-year period and would become part of the 
proposed withdrawal.
    The Carson City District of the Bureau of Land Management proposes 
to amend the Lahontan Resource Management Plan to address future 
management of these same lands. The resource management plan amendment 
process will serve as the basis for decisions on resource protection 
and development and the need for a withdrawal. The Bureau of Land 
Management and Washoe County are cooperating in the preparation of this 
resource management plan amendment.

DATES: Comments should be received on or before October 6, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be sent to the Nevada State Director, BLM, 
P.O. Box 12000, Reno, Nevada 89520 or the Carson City Field Office 
Manager, 5665 Morgan Mill Road, Carson City, Nevada 89701.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dennis J. Samuelson, BLM Nevada State 
Office, 702-861-6532 or Jo Ann Hufnagle, BLM Carson City Office, 702-
885-6000.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 19, 1998, a petition was approved 
allowing the Bureau of Land Management to file an application to 
withdraw the following described reserved Federal minerals from 
location and entry under the mining laws and the following described 
public lands from settlement, sale, location, or entry under the 
general land laws, including the mining laws, but not from conveyances 
under Sections 203 and 206 of the Federal Land Policy and Management 
Act of 1976, as amended, the Recreation and Public Purposes Act, as 
amended, and the mineral leasing laws:

    The purpose of the withdrawal is to protect resource values in the 
open and mountainous terrain in the southern Washoe County urban, 
suburban and rural residential area. Washoe County has recently 
developed an Open Space System that identifies a large acreage of 
public lands as having open space values. Much of this acreage is 
identified in BLM's resource management plan for disposal for community 
expansion. The joint land use plan amendment will address future 
management of these lands and the need for a protective withdrawal.
    The withdrawal application will be processed in accordance with the 
regulations set forth in 43 CFR Part 2300. Notice is hereby given that 
a public meeting in connection with the proposed withdrawal will be 
held at a later date. A notice of the time and place will be published 
in the Federal Register 30 days before the scheduled date of the 
meeting.
    The public is invited to participate in the identification of 
issues related to the management of public lands within the Washoe 
County Urban Interface Plan Area located generally in southern Washoe 
County. Anticipated issues for the plan amendment are:
     Identification of public lands to be retained as open 
space
     Identification of public lands available to state or local 
agencies for recreation and public purposes
     Identification of public lands available for exchange
     Identification of lands with potential for future 
acquisition
     Developments and facilities consistent with open space
     Public workshops for the plan amendment will be announced 
in mailings and local newspapers.
    For a period of 90 days from the date of publication of this 
notice, all persons who wish to submit comments, suggestions, or 
objections in connection with the proposed withdrawal or plan amendment 
may present their views in writing to either the State Director or 
Field Office Manager.
    For a period of 2 years from the date of publication of this notice
