(43 U.S.C. 1713), at no less than the appraised fair market value to 
resolve unauthorized use of the public lands.

DATES: Interested parties may submit written comments to the Bureau of 
Land Management (BLM) regarding the proposed sale of the lands until 
February 11, 2008.

ADDRESSES: Mail written comments to the BLM Field Manager, Battle 
Mountain Field Office, 50 Bastian Road, Battle Mountain, NV 89820.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The following-described public land in 
Lander County, Nevada, is being proposed for sale under the authority 
of section 203 of the FLPMA: Mount Diablo Meridian, Nevada.

T. 19 N., R. 44 E.,
    Sec. 19, lots 28 and 29.

    The area described contains 2.65 acres, more or less.

    The 1986 BLM Shoshone-Eureka Resource Management Plan identifies 
this parcel of public land as suitable for disposal. The sale will be 
subject to the provisions of FLPMA and applicable regulations and will 
contain the reservation to the United States of a right-of-way thereon 
for ditches or canals constructed by the authority of the United 
States, Act of August 30, 1890 (43 U.S.C. 945). Conveyance of the 
identified public land will be subject to valid existing rights and 
encumbrances of record, including but not limited to, rights-of-way for 
roads and public utilities. Conveyance of any mineral interests 
pursuant to section 209 of the Act of October 21, 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1719) 
will be analyzed during processing of the proposed sale.
    On December 27, 2008, the above described land will be segregated 
from appropriation under the public land laws, including the mining and 
mineral laws, except the sale provisions of the FLPMA. Upon publication 
of this Notice of Realty Action and until completion of the sale, the 
BLM is no longer accepting land use applications affecting the 
identified public land, except applications for the amendment of 
previously filed right-of-way applications or existing authorizations 
to increase the term of the grants in accordance with 43 CFR 2807.15 
and 2886.15. The segregative effect will terminate upon issuance of a 
patent, publication in the Federal Register of a termination of the 
segregation, or December 27, 2009, unless extended by the BLM Nevada 
State Director in accordance with 43 CFR 2711.1-2(d) prior to the 
termination date.
    For a period until February 11, 2008, interested parties and the 
general public may submit in writing any comments concerning the land 
being considered for sale, including notification of any encumbrances 
or other claims relating to the identified land to the BLM Field 
Manager at the above address. In order to ensure consideration in the 
environmental analysis of the proposed sale, comments must be in 
writing and postmarked or delivered within 45 days of the initial date 
of publication of this Notice of Realty Action. Only written comments 
submitted by postal service or overnight mail to the BLM Field Manager 
will be considered properly filed. Facsimiles, telephone calls, and 
electronic mails are unacceptable means of notification. Before 
including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or other personal 
identifying information in your comment, you should be aware that your 
entire comment--including your personal identifying information--may be 
made publicly available at any time. While you can ask us in your 
comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public 
review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so. If you wish 
to have your name or address withheld from public disclosure under the 
Freedom of Information Act, you must state this prominently at the 
beginning of your comments. Any determination by the BLM to release or 
withhold the names and/or addresses of those who comment will be made 
on a case-by-case basis. Such requests will be honored to the extent 
allowed by law. The BLM will make available for public review, in their 
entirety, all comments submitted by businesses or organizations, 
including comments by individuals in their capacity as an official or 
representative of a business or organization.
    Any adverse comments will be reviewed by the BLM Nevada State 
Director who may sustain, vacate, or modify this realty action. In the 
absence of any adverse comments, this realty action will become the 
final determination of the Department of the Interior.

    Authority: 43 CFR 2711.1-2.

    Dated: December, 18, 2007.
Gerald Smith,
Acting Battle Mountain Field Office Manager.
