SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    The BLM has examined a parcel of public land, containing 
approximately 0.055 acres and described as a metes and bounds parcel in 
the SW\1/4\SW\1/4\ of section 33, T. 50 N., R. 11 E., New Mexico 
Principal Meridian, Fremont County, Colorado, and determined that it is 
suitable for lease pursuant to Section 302 of the Federal Land Policy 
and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1732), using noncompetitive lease 
procedures as provided in 43 CFR 2920.5-4(b). The lands are presently 
used for seasonal occupancy purposes.
    The BLM proposes to grant the current occupant Charles E. Afeman, a 
non-assignable life-estate lease to authorize the existing seasonal 
occupancy and use. The lease, if issued, would be for not less than 
fair market value and be to all valid existing rights and the 
provisions of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act and applicabl 
regulations of the Secretary of the Interior. Upon relinquishment or 
cancellation of the lease, or death of the lessee, the lease would 
terminate, the existing improvements would be removed, and the land 
would be restored to its natural condition. Issuing a non-assignable, 
life-estate lease for this public land parcel is consistent with the 
Royal Gorge Resource Management Plan (May 1996).
    Publication of this notice will initiate public review, 
consultation, and collaboration for this proposed land use 
authorization. Detailed information concerning the proposed action is 
available for review at the Royal Gorge Field Office, Bureau of Land 
Management, 3170 East Main Street, Ca[ntilde]on City, Colorado 81212, 
or by telephoning Lindell Greer, Realty Specialist, at (719) 269-8532.
    Interested parties may submit comment to the Field Manager, Royal

Gorge Field Office, at the above address until January 23, 2006. Any 
adverse comments will be evaluated by the Royal Gorge Field Manager,

of any adverse comments, this action will become the final 
determination of the Department of the Interior.

Roy L. Masinton,
Royal Gorge Field Manager.
