DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

Bureau of Land Management

[NV-930-1430-ET; N-66363]


Notice of Proposed Withdrawal and Opportunity for Public Meeting; 
Nevada

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: This notice temporarily segregates 160,529.76 acres of Federal 
lands and 15,813.12 acres of federally reserved minerals, while various 
studies and analyses are made to support a final decision to withdraw 
the land for protection of resources for a 20-year period. This notice 
closes the Federal lands to surface entry, except for conveyance under 
section 206 of Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 or the 
Recreation and Public Purposes Act of 1926, and mining, but not to 
mineral leasing for up to 1 year. This notice closes the federally 
owned minerals to mining, but not to mineral leasing for up to 1 year. 
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 1-year period. This 
segregation does not affect valid existing rights.
    The Carson City Field Office 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 10, 2000.

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

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dennis J. Samuelson, BLM Nevada State 
Office, 775-785-6532 or Jo Ann Hufnagle, BLM Carson City Office, 775-
885-6000.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 6, 2000, a petition was approved 
allowing the Bureau of Land Management to file an application to 
withdraw the following described Federal lands and non-Federal lands 
from surface and mineral entry:

    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.
    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 may present their 
views in writing to either the State Director or Manager, Carson City 
Field Office.
    For a period of 1 year from the date of publication of this notice 
in the Federal Register, the lands will be segregated as specified 
above unless the application is denied or cancelled or the withdrawal 
is approved prior to that date. Rights-of-way, leases, permits and 
other discretionary temporary land uses will be considered by the 
authorized officer during this segregative period.

    Dated: July 6, 2000.
Margaret L. Jensen,
Deputy State Director, Natural Resources, Lands, and Planning.
