SUMMARY: This Order partially revokes a withdrawal created by

development. The USFS also requests PLO No. 7448 be modified by 
removing the Federal Power Act Section 24 reservation provision noted 
in paragraph 1 of the Order. The Bureau of Land Management, in 
consultation with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, determined 
that the interests of the United States will not be injured by 
conveyance of the land out of Federal ownership. This Order opens some 
lands within PSC No. 361 to such uses as may be made of NFS lands.
