Public Land Order No. 7743; Partial Revocation of Five 
Secretarial Orders for Reclamation Project Purposes on the Colorado 
River, California.

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Public Land Order.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This order partially revokes five Secretarial Orders insofar 
as they affect 2,865.86 acres of public lands previously withdrawn for 
reclamation project purposes on the Colorado River. The lands are no 
longer needed for reclamation purposes and the Bureau of Reclamation 
has relinquished the lands accordingly. This order opens the lands to 
the Act of Congress dated January 12, 1891, as amended by the Act of 
Congress dated March 1, 1907, to facilitate the issuance of a trust 
patent to the Chemehuevi Indian Tribe. The lands will remain withdrawn 
from all forms of settlement and entry under the terms of an Order of 
the Secretary of the Interior dated February 2, 1907.

DATES: Effective Date: June 24, 2010.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Duane Marti, Realty Specialist, at 
916-978-4675 or via e-mail at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Bureau of Reclamation has determined 
that the lands are no longer needed for reclamation purposes as 
previously withdrawn and has requested the partial revocation. These 
lands are included in an overlapping reservation on behalf of the 
Chemehuevi Indian Tribe, therefore the lands will remain withdrawn from 
all forms of settlement and entry. The Bureau of Indian Affairs has 
requested that the Bureau of Land Management issue a trust patent for 
the Chemehuevi Indian Tribe's reservation along the Colorado River in 
San Bernardino County. The lands are being opened to the Act of 
Congress dated January 12, 1891 (26 Stat. 712), as amended by the Act 
of Congress dated March 1, 1907 (34 Stat. 1015, 1022), to facilitate 
the issuance of the trust patent.
