School District has submitted a statement in compliance with the 
regulations at 43 CFR 2741.4(b), describing a definitely proposed 
project for the use of these 30 acres. The lands for lease or 
conveyance under the R&PP Act are legally described as:

SW\1/4\SE\1/4\NE\1/4\, and W\1/2\SE\1/4\SE\1/4\NE\1/4\.

    The area described contains 30 acres.

    The Clark County School District filed an application to develop a 
school consisting of five school buildings, sixth to eighth grade 
classrooms, and sixth, seventh, and eighth grade learning centers. 
There will be fine arts and technology centers, as well as a student's 
presentation center, areas for a botanical learning center, basketball 
courts, ball fields, bike racks, shaded rest areas, turf play area, 
playgrounds, and a tetherball court area. Additionally, there would be 
parking for the public, school staff, and school buses to pick up and 
drop off students, as well as a fire department access road.
    Lease or conveyance of these public lands are consistent with the 
BLM Las Vegas Resource Management Plan dated October 5, 1998. The lands 
are not needed for any other Federal purposes.
    All interested parties will receive a copy of this Notice once it 
is published in the Federal Register. Additionally, a copy of the 
Notice will be published in the newspaper of local circulation once a 
week for three consecutive weeks. The regulations at 43 CFR Subpart 
2741 addressing requirements and procedures for conveyances under the 
R&PP Act do not require a public meeting.
    Upon publication of this Notice in the Federal Register, the lands 
will be segregated from all other forms of appropriation under the 
public land laws, including locations under the mining laws, except for 
lease or conveyance under the R&PP Act and leasing under the mineral 
leasing laws.
    The lease or conveyance of the land, when issued, will be subject 
to the following terms, conditions, and reservations:
    1. A right-of-way thereon for ditches and canals constructed by the 
authority of the United States Act of August 30, 1890 (26 Stat. 391; 43 
U.S.C. 945).
    2. Provisions of the R&PP Act and to all applicable regulations of 
the Secretary of the Interior.
    3. All mineral deposits in the land leased or patented, and the 
right to prospect for, mine, and remove such deposits from the same 
under applicable law and regulations as established by the Secretary of 
the Interior are reserved to the United States, together with all 
necessary access and exit rights.
    4. Lease or conveyance of the parcel is subject to valid existing 
rights.
    5. An appropriate indemnification clause protecting the United 
States from claims arising out of the lessee's/patentee's use, 
occupancy, or occupations on the leased/patented lands.
    6. Any other reservations that the authorized officer determines 
appropriate to ensure public access and proper management of Federal 
lands and interests therein.
    Classification Comments: Interested persons may submit comments 
involving the suitability of the land for development of a middle 
school. Comments on the classification are restricted to whether the 
land is physically suited for the proposal, whether the use will 
maximize the future use or uses of the land, whether the use is 
consistent with local planning and zoning, and if the use is consistent 
with State and Federal programs.
    Application Comments: Interested persons may submit comments 
regarding the specific use in the application and plan of development 
and management, whether the BLM followed proper administrative 
procedures in reaching the decision, or any other factor not directly 
related to the suitability of the lands for a middle school.
    Any adverse comments will be reviewed by the BLM Nevada State 
Director or other authorized official of the Department of the 
Interior, who may sustain, vacate, or modify this realty action. In the 
absence of any adverse comments, the classification will become 
effective on September 24, 2019. The lands will not be offered for 
conveyance until after the classification becomes effective.
    Before including your address, phone number, email address, or 
other personal identifying information in any comment, be aware 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 your personal identifying information from 
public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.
