Public Land Order No. 7388; Partial Revocation of Executive Order 
Dated July 2, 1910; Utah

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Public land order.

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

SUMMARY: This order partially revokes an Executive order insofar as it 
affects 80 acres of public land withdrawn for the Bureau of Land 
Management's Power Site Classification No. 34. The withdrawal is no 
longer needed, and the revocation is necessary to facilitate a pending 
statewide assembled land exchange This action will open the land to 
surface entry subject to valid existing rights. Except for 24.27 acres 
that are temporarily closed to mining due to the pending land exchange, 
the land has been and will remain open to mineral leasing, and to 
mining under the provisions of the Mining Claims Rights Restoration Act 
of 1955. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has concurred with 
this action.

EFFECTIVE DATE: June 3, 1999.

rights, the provisions of existing withdrawals, other segregations of 
record, and the requirements of applicable law. All valid applications 
received at or prior to 10 a.m., June 3, 1999, shall be considered as 
simultaneously filed at that time. Those received thereafter shall be

    3. The land has been open to mining under the provisions of the 
Mining Claims Rights Restoration Act of 1955, 30 U.S.C. 621 (1994).

purposes, the provisions of the act are no longer applicable.
