43 U.S.C. 1714 (1994), it is ordered as follows:

record, and the requirements of applicable law. Appropriation of any of 
the 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.

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.
