The areas described aggregate 74,689 acres. PLO 7467 withdrew these lands from location and entry under the United States mining laws, but not from leasing under the mineral leasing laws, for a period of 20 years. The extension will continue the withdrawal established by PLO 7467 to protect the cultural significance, capital investments and dispersed recreation in the USFS's San Francisco Peaks/Mount Elden Recreation Area. The withdrawal extension would continue the purpose of the withdrawal established by PLO 7467 to protect the capital investments and high-quality recreation values in the USFS's San Francisco Peaks/ Mount Elden Recreation area. The use of a right-of-way, interagency agreement, or cooperative agreement would not provide adequate protection for the capital improvement investments that the USFS has made to the San Francisco Peaks/Mount Elden Recreation Area. No additional water rights would be needed to fulfill the purpose of the requested withdrawal extension. There are no suitable alternative sites since these lands contain the developed San Francisco Peaks/Mount Elden Recreation Area. Before including your address, phone number, email address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you should 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. Notice is hereby given that a virtual (online) public meeting in connection with the application for withdrawal extension will be held on August 17, 2020, at 5:00 p.m. The USFS will publish a notice of the time and online venue in a local newspaper a minimum of 15 days before the scheduled date of the meeting.
