[[Page 32890]]

1976 (FLPMA) and 43 CFR parts 2711 and 2720:

Salt Lake Meridian, Utah

T. 19 S, R. 8 E,
    Sec. 21, E\1/2\NW\1/4\, SW\1/4\NW\1/4\, and NE\1/4\SW\1/4\.

    The area described contains 160 acres, according to the official 
plat of the survey of the said land, on file with the BLM.

    The proposed sale is in conformance with the BLM Price Field Office 
Resource Management Plan (PFO RMP) that was approved in October 2008. 
The parcel is identified for disposal by sale under Section 203 of 
FLPMA in the PFO RMP on page 2 of Appendix R-11. This parcel of land 
was identified for disposal because it is isolated from large blocks of 
public land making it difficult and uneconomic to manage. The land 
would be offered to the adjoining land owners on a modified competitive 
basis, with Hunter Prep Plant, LLC, as the designated bidder, giving 
them the right to meet the highest bid pursuant to 43 CFR 2711.3-
2(a)(1). Conveyance of the identified public land would be subject to 
valid existing rights and encumbrances of record. Conveyance of any 
mineral interests pursuant to Section 209 of FLPMA will be analyzed 
during processing of the proposed sale. On July 16, 2018, the above-
described land will be segregated from appropriation under the public 
land laws, including the mining laws, except the sale provisions of 
FLPMA. Until completion of the sale action, the BLM is no longer 
accepting land use applications affecting the identified public land. 
The segregative effect will terminate upon issuance of a patent, 
publication in the Federal Register of a termination of the 
segregation, or July 16, 2020, unless extended by the BLM Utah State 
Director in accordance with 43 CFR 2711.1-2(d) prior to the termination 
date.
    For a period until August 30, 2018, 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 Field Manager, 
BLM Price Field Office, 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. Comments, including 
names and street addresses of respondents, will be available for public 
review at the BLM Price Field Office during regular business hours, 
except holidays. Individual respondents may request confidentiality. 
Before including your address, phone number, email address, or other 
personal identifying information in your comment, be advised 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 from public review your personal identifying 
information, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.

    Authority:  43 CFR 2711.1-2.

Edwin L. Roberson,
State Director.
