of the public lands. BLM has determined that resource values will not 
be affected by the disposal of this parcel of public land. The parcel 
is identified for disposal in the Challis Resource Management Plan 
(1999). In accordance with 43 CFR 2711.3-3(a)(5), this parcel is being 
offered by direct (non-competitive) sale to First Fruits Foundation 
Trust, Christopher James Trustee/representative, based on historic use 
and value of added improvements. The parcel is fenced, has an improved 
driveway, entrance gate, maintained lawn, portion of septic field and 
portion of a garage. Failure or refusal by Christopher James to submit 
the required fair market appraisal amount within 180 days of the sale 
of the parcel will constitute a waiver of this preference consideration 
and this parcel may be offered for sale on a competitive or modified 
competitive basis.
    The parcel is described as follows:

Boise Meridian, Idaho

T. 14 N., R. 18 E.,
    Section 35, lot 4

    The area described contains 0.75 acres, more or less. The market 
value for this land, utilizing direct sale procedures, at not less 
than the current appraised fair market value, is determined to be 
$2,600.00.

    The patent, when issued, will contain a reservation to the United 
States for ditches and canals under the Act of March 30, 1890. The 
patent will be made subject to the following existing rights of record:
    1. IDI-16458--Those rights for a buried telephone cable granted to 
Custer Telephone Cooperative Inc., its successors or assigns, pursuant 
to the Act of October 21, 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1761).
    2. IDI 0 08308--Those rights for an overhead 24.9kv power line 
granted to Salmon River Electric Cooperative Inc., its successors or 
assigns, pursuant to the Act of February 15, 1901, as amended (formerly 
43 U.S.C. 959).
    Continued use of the land by valid rights-of-way holders is proper, 
subject to the terms and conditions of their grants. Administrative 
responsibility previously held by the United States will be assumed by 
the patentee.
    It has been determined that the subject parcel contains no known 
mineral values; therefore, mineral interests will be conveyed 
simultaneously with the surface. A separate non-refundable filing fee 
of $50.00 is required from the purchaser for the conveyance of the 
mineral interest.
    Upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register, the land 
described above will be segregated from appropriation under the public 
land laws, including the general mining laws. The segregation will end 
upon issuance of patent or 270 days from the date of publication, 
whichever occurs first.
    The land will not be offered for sale until at least 60 days after 
the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register.
    Comments must be received by the BLM Challis Field Manager, Idaho 
Falls District Office, at the address stated above, on or before the 
date stated above. Any adverse comments will be reviewed by the Idaho 
Falls District Manager, who may sustain, vacate or modify this realty 
action. In the absence of any objections, or adverse comments, this 
proposed realty action will become the final determination of the 
Department of the Interior.

    Dated: September 21, 2006.
