    The area described contains 878.34 acres, more or less.

    The 1986 BLM Shoshone-Eureka Resource Management Plan identifies 
these parcels of public land as suitable for disposal. The sale meets 
the disposal qualification of Section 205 of the Federal Land 
Transaction Facilitation Act of July 25, 2000, 43 U.S.C. 2304. The sale 
will be subject to the provisions of FLPMA and applicable regulations 
of the Secretary of the Interior, 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 publication of this notice in the Federal Register, the 
described land will be segregated from appropriation under the public 
land laws, including the mining laws, except the sale provisions of the 
FLPMA. On segregation, the BLM will no longer accept 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 two years after the 
date of publication of this notice, unless extended by the BLM Nevada 
State Director in accordance with 43 CFR 2711.1-2(d) prior to the 
termination date.
    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 Field Manager, BLM Battle Mountain Field Office.
    Only written comments submitted by postal service or overnight mail 
to the Field Manager, BLM Battle Mountain District Office will be 
considered properly filed. Facsimiles, telephone calls, and electronic 
mails are unacceptable means of notification. Before including your 
address, phone number, e-mail, 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.
