Public Land Order No. 7487; Partial Revocation of Public Land 
Order No. 1742; Colorado

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Public land order.

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

SUMMARY: This order partially revokes Public Land Order No. 1742 
insofar as it affects approximately 2 acres of National Forest System 
lands withdrawn for a roadside zone.

EFFECTIVE DATE: July 9, 2001.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Doris E. Chelius, BLM Colorado State 
Office, 2850 Youngfield Street, Lakewood, Colorado 80215-7093, 303-239-
3706.
    By virtue of the authority vested in the Secretary of the Interior 
by Section 204 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, 
43 U.S.C. 1714 (1994), it is ordered as follows:
    1. Public Land Order No. 1742, which withdrew National Forest 
System lands for a roadside zone along Colorado Highway 119, Peak-to-
Peak Highway, is hereby revoked insofar as it affects the following 
described lands:

Sixth Principal Meridian

Roosevelt National Forest
    T. 1 S., R. 73 W.,

    A strip of land 200 feet north of the centerline of Colorado 
Highway 119 as it runs through the NE\1/4\ of section 24 crossing 
lots 8, 9, 25 and 32.
    The areas described aggregate approximately 2 acres in Boulder 
County.

    2. At 9 a.m. on July 9, 2001, the lands shall be opened to such 
forms of disposition as may by law be made of National Forest System 
lands, including 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 lands 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 (1994), 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: May 21, 2001.
Gale A. Norton,
Secretary of the Interior.
