    3. In accordance with 43 CFR 2091.6, at 8:30 a.m., on March 28, 
2005, the land withdrawn by the public land order listed in Paragraph 1 
above will be opened to the operation of the public land laws 
generally, subject to valid existing rights, the provision of existing 
withdrawals, other segregations of record, and the requirements of 
applicable law. All valid applications received at or prior to 8:30 
a.m. on March 28, 2005, shall be considered as simultaneously filed at 
that time. Those received thereafter shall be considered in the order 
of filing.
    4. In accordance with 43 CFR 2091.6, at 8:30 a.m., on March 28, 
2005, the lands withdrawn by the public land orders listed in paragraph 
1 above will be opened to 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 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. 
38 (2000), shall vest no rights against the United States. State law 
governs acts required to establish a location and to initiate a right 
of possession 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.
