1976 (90 Stat. 2750, 43 U.S.C. 1713), at not less than the estimated 
fair market value of $135,000.00. The land will not be offered for sale 
until at least 60 days after the date of this notice.

Mount Diablo Meridian

T.33N., R.9W.,
    Section 5, Lots 21, 55.
    Section 6, Lots 6, 7, 11, 13, 18, 19, and Lots 23&24 of the SE.
    Section 7, Lot 44.

    Containing 131.61 Acres more or less.

    The land described is hereby segregated from appropriation under 
the public land laws, including the mining laws, pending disposition of 
this action or 270 days from the date of publication of this notice, 
whichever occurs first.
    This land is being offered by direct sale for community purposes to 
Trinity County and the Weaverville Fire District, consistent with 43 
CFR 2711.3-3(a)(1). It has been determined that the public lands in 
Section 5, Lots 21, 55, Section 6 Lots 6, 7, 11, 13, 18, 19 contain no 
known mineral values; therefore, mineral interests may be conveyed 
simultaneously. Section 6, Lots 23&24 of the SE and Section 7 Lot 44, 
do contain a significant mineral interest value for cobble and small 
boulder size placer tailings, a royalty of ten percent of the gross 
Fair Market Value of the free on board cobbles, boulders, sand and 
gravel after processing and prior to incurring transportation costs 
shall be reserved to the United States. Acceptance of the direct sale 
offer will qualify the purchaser to make application for conveyance of 
those mineral interests not reserved to the United States.
    The land are not needed for Federal purposes. Conveyance is 
consistent with current BLM land use planning and would be in the 
public interest.
    The patent, when issued, will be subject to the following terms, 
conditions and reservations:
    1. A right-of-way for ditches and canals constructed by the 
authority of the United States.
    2. Third party rights
    3. Protective covenant to protect an historic ditch and cultural 
site.
    4. Section 6, Lots 23&24 of the SE and Section 7 Lot 44, do contain 
a significant mineral interest value for cobble and small boulder size 
placer tailings, a royalty of ten percent of the gross Fair Market 
Value of the free on board cobbles, boulders, sand and gravel after 
processing and prior to incurring transportation costs shall be 
reserved to the United States.
    5. The patent will contain a hold harmless clause to protect the 
United States liability arising from local use of the land.
    Detailed information concerning this action is available for review 
at the office of the Bureau of Land Management, Redding Field Office, 
355 Hemsted Dr., Redding, California, 96002.
    Upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register, the lands 
will be segregated from all other forms of appropriation under the 
public land laws, including the general mining laws. For a period of 45 
days from the date of publication of this notice in the Federal 
Register, interested persons may submit written comments regarding the 
proposed sale to Charles M. Schultz, Field Office Manager, Redding 
Field Office, Bureau of Land Management, 355 Hemsted Dr., Redding, CA 
96002. In the absence of timely objections, this proposal shall become 
the final determination of the department of the Interior.

    Dated: April 26, 2001.
