Notice of Application for Recordable Disclaimer of Interest; New 
Mexico

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: Mr. Richard L. Epstein and Ms. Carolyn Kernberger submitted an 
application for a recordable disclaimer of interest from the United 
States, pursuant to Section 315 of the Federal Land Policy and 
Management Act of 1976, as amended (43 U.S.C. 1745), for the following 
described land, in Socorro County:

New Mexico Principal Meridian, New Mexico

    A certain tract of land situate in Section 7, T. 2 S., R. 1 E., 
NMPM, being that accreted land lying westerly of and adjoining lot 3 
and lot 4 of Section 7, T. 2 S., R. 1 E., NMPM. A recordable 
disclaimer of interest, if issued, will confirm the United States 
has no interest in the subject lands. This notice is intended to 
notify the public of the pending application and the applicants' 
grounds supporting it. The acres for this disclaimer are 30.54.


FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jon Hertz, Assistant Socorro Field 
Office Manager at (505) 835-0412.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 15, 2003, Mr. Richard L. Epstein and 
Ms. Carolyn Kernberger filed an application for a recordable disclaimer 
of interest for lands that lie between the western boundary of their 
property and the Rio Grande. According to the applicant's, a cloud on 
their title presently exists because BLM has determined that these 
lands along the Rio Grande have accreted to their property. BLM 
Cadastral Survey examined the documents provided and agreed with the 
assessment that the accreted lands westerly of lots 3 and 4, and the 
1981 riverbank in T. 2 S., R. 1 E., NMPM, section 7, do indeed attach 
to the private uplands described as lot 3 and lot 4.
    All persons who wish to present comments, suggestions, or 
objections in connection with the proposed disclaimer may do so by 
writing to the Field Office Manager, Socorro Field Office, 198 Neel 
Avenue, NW., Socorro, NM 87801 until October 12, 2004. If no objections 
are received, the disclaimer will be published shortly after these 90 
days have lapsed.

    Dated: April 21, 2004.
Jonathan Hertz,
Socorro Field Manager.
