Public Land Order No. 7851; Partial Revocation, Power Site 
Reserve Nos. 24, 145, and 566; Oregon

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Public Land Order.

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

SUMMARY: This order partially revokes three withdrawals insofar as they 
affect 23,878.22 acres of public and non-Federal lands originally 
withdrawn to protect water power values. Portions of the withdrawals 
created by two Executive Orders which established Power Site Reserve 
Nos. 24, 145, and 566, are no longer needed for the purpose for which 
they were withdrawn. The lands will not be restored to operation of the 
public land laws because they have either been conveyed out of Federal 
ownership, or are included in the John Day Wild and Scenic River 
withdrawal.

DATES: This Public Land Order is effective on March 29, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jenice Prutz, Bureau of Land 
Management, Oregon State Office, P.O. Box 2965, Portland, Oregon, 
97208-2965, 503-808-6163. Persons who use a telecommunications device 
for the deaf (TDD) may call the Federal Information Relay Service 
(FIRS) at 1-800-877-8339. The FIRS is available 24 hours a day, 7 days 
a week, to leave a message or question with the above individual. You 
will receive a reply during normal business hours.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The subject lands are located within the 
designated boundary of the John Day Wild and Scenic River. The lands, 
which are precluded from waterpower development, would continue to be 
managed subject to the provisions of the National Wild and Scenic 
Rivers System Act, Public Law 90-542, as amended, 16 U.S.C. 1271 et 
seq. Revocation of the power site reserve withdrawals is consistent 
with the Bureau of Land Management's land management plan for the John 
Day Wild and Scenic River.

Order

    By virtue of the authority vested in the Secretary of the Interior 
by Section 204 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, 
43 U.S.C. 1714, and pursuant to the determination by the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission in DV13-3-000, it is ordered as follows:
    1. The withdrawal created by the Executive Order dated July 2, 
1910, which established Power Site Reserve Nos. 24 and 145, is hereby 
revoked insofar as it affects the following-described land:
