SUMMARY: The following public lands in Lake County, California have 
been examined and found suitable for classification for lease or 
conveyance to the Lake County Flood Control and Water Conservation 
District under the provisions of the Recreation and Public Purposes 
Act, as amended (43 U.S.C. 869 et seq.). The Lake County Flood Control 
and Water Conservation District proposes to construct and maintain a 
multipurpose trail system on the public lands that would tie into the 
trail system on their 2,550 acre of adjacent land. The trails would be 
constructed for non-motorized use, including hiking, equestrian and 
all-terrain bicycles.
    Lease and/or conveyance is consistent with current BLM land use 
planning and would be in the public interest. The lands are located at:

Mount Diablo Meridian, California

T. 13 N., R 10 W.
    Section 34: NE, S2NW, N2SE.
    Section 35: SWNE, W2NW, SENW, SW, W2SE.
    The area described contains 720 acres.

    The lease/patent, when issued, will be subject to the following 
terms, conditions, and reservations:

    1. Provision of the Recreation and Public Purpose Act and to all 
applicable regulations of the Secretary of the Interior.
    2. A right-of-way for ditches and canals constructed by the 
authority of the United States.
    3. All minerals shall be reserved to the United States, together 
with the right to prospect for, mine and remove the minerals.
    4. A right-of-way for an access road granted to Bob Neilsen under 
CACA-31323.
    5. A right-of-way for an access road reserved by the Bureau of Land 
Management on the Adobe Creek Road under CAS-076875.

Detailed information concerning this action is available for review at 
the office of the Bureau of Land Management, Ukiah Field Office, 2550 
North State Street, Ukiah, California. Upon publication of this notice 
in the Federal Register, the lands will be segregated from all other 
forms of appropriation under the public land use laws, including the 
general mining laws, except for lease and/or conveyance under the 
Recreation and Public Purposes Act and leasing under the mineral 
leasing laws. The segregation for exchange under CACA-30111FD will be 
revoked. For a period until November 17, 2003, interested persons may 
submit comments regarding the proposed lease/conveyance or 
classification of the lands to the Field Manager, Ukiah Field Office, 
2550 North State Street, Ukiah, CA 95482.

    Classification Comments: Interested parties may submit comments 
involving the suitability of the land for the development of hiking, 
equestrian and all-terrain bicycle trails. Comments on the 
classification are restricted to whether the land is physically suited 
for the proposal, whether the use will maximize the future use or uses 
of the land, whether the use is consistent with local planning and 
zoning, or if the use is consistent with State and Federal programs.
    Application Comments: Interested parties may submit comments 
regarding the specific use proposed in the application and plan of 
development, whether the BLM followed proper administrative procedures 
in reaching the decision, or any other factor not directly related to 
the suitability of the land for hiking, equestrian and all-terrain 
bicycles trails. Any adverse comments will be reviewed by the State
