SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The desert-land classification for N-58996 
was made on April 8, 1982, pursuant to the Desert Land Act (19 Stat. 
377; 43 U.S.C. 321-323), as amended by the Act of March 3, 1891 (26 
Stat. 1096; 43 U.S.C. 231, 323, 325, 327-329). The land was classified 
as suitable for entry under the desert-land laws.
    Desert Land Entry Application N-27917 was filed on December 31, 
1979, by Daniel R. Cassinelli, for 60 acres of public land in Humboldt 
County. Nevada. The application was not approved for entry because of 
economic unfeasibility, and because water, necessary to allow entry, 
was determined to be unavailable by the State of Nevada Water Engineer. 
The case was closed on November 16, 1984.
    Desert Land Entry Application N-27917 and classification N-58996 
are hereby terminated for the following described 60 acres:

Mount Diablo Meridian, Nevada

T. 40 N., R. 39 E., Sec. 36: NE\1/4\SE\1/4\, N\1/2\SE\1/4\SE\1/4\

    At 9:00 a.m. on May 9, 2001, the land described above will be 
opened to the operation of the public land laws generally, subject to 
valid existing rights, the provision of existing withdrawals, other 
segregations of record, and the requirements of applicable law. All 
valid applications received at or prior to 9:00 a.m. on May 9, 2001, 
will be considered as simultaneously filed at that time. All other 
applications received thereafter shall be considered in the order of 
filing.
    At 9:00 a.m. on May 9, 2001, the land described above will be 
opened to location and entry under the United States mining laws, 
subject to valid existing rights, the provisions of existing 
withdrawals, other segregations of record, and the requirements of 
applicable law. Appropriation of any of the land described in this 
order under the general mining laws prior to the date and time of 
restoration is unauthorized. Any such attempted appropriation, 
including attempted adverse possession under 30 U.S.C. 38 (1988), shall 
vest no rights against the United States. Acts required to establish a 
location and to initiate a right of possession are governed by State 
law where not in conflict with Federal law. The Bureau of Land 
Management will not intervene in disputes between rival locators over 
possessory rights since Congress has provided for such determinations 
in local courts.

    Dated: March 6, 2001.

Field Manager.
