Public Land Order No. 7779; Partial Revocation of Secretarial 
Order Dated September 24, 1942; Alaska

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Public Land Order.

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

SUMMARY: This order revokes a Secretarial Order insofar as it affects 
approximately 606 acres of public land withdrawn on behalf of the 
Federal Aviation Administration for Air Navigation Site No. 190 at Lake 
Minchumina, Alaska. The land is no longer needed for the purpose for 
which it was withdrawn.

DATES: Effective Date: September 27, 2011.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Robert L. Lloyd, Bureau of Land 
Management, Alaska State Office, 222 W. Seventh Avenue, 13, 
Anchorage, Alaska 99513-7504; 907-271-4682.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Aviation Administration has 
determined approximately 606 acres of Air Navigation Site No. 190 now 
exceeds its needs and has requested a partial revocation of the 
withdrawal. Upon revocation, the State of Alaska selection applications 
made under the Alaska Statehood Act and the Alaska National Interest 
Lands Conservation Act become effective without further action by the 
State, if such land is otherwise available. Land selected by, but not 
conveyed to, the State is subject to the terms and conditions of Public 
Land Order No. 5184 (37 FR 5588 (1972)), as amended, and any other 
withdrawals, applications, or segregations of record. While the land 
remains in Federal ownership, there is no significant restriction on 
subsistence uses. If the land ultimately is conveyed to the State of 
Alaska pursuant to the Alaska Statehood Act, that conveyance will not 
result in a significant restriction on subsistence uses. Even if any 
such restriction would result upon conveyance of the land to the State, 
conveyance of the land is authorized by Section 810(c) of the Alaska 
National Interest Lands Conservation Act.
