Public Land Order No. 7616; Partial Revocation of 7 Secretarial Orders; Oregon

AGENCY:

Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION:

Public Land Order.

SUMMARY:

This order revokes 7 Secretarial Orders insofar as they affect 17,789.94 acres of lands withdrawn for the Bureau of Reclamation's Owyhee Reclamation Project. The lands are no longer needed for the purpose for which they were withdrawn. Of the lands included in the revocation, 7,975.30 acres will remain closed to surface entry and mining until the Bureau of Land Management completes a planning review. The remaining 9,814.64 acres have been conveyed from Federal ownership.

DATES:

November 5, 2004.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Michael L. Barnes, BLM Oregon/ Washington State Office, P.O. Box 2965, Portland, Oregon 97208, (503) 808-6155.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The lands described in Paragraph (a) will remain closed to surface entry and mining until a planning analysis and review is completed to determine if any of the lands need special designation or protection. If such lands are deemed appropriate for surface entry, including entry under the mining laws, a subsequent Notice of Opening will be published in the Federal Register to address such a finding and potentially open such lands to entry. This is a record clearing action only for the lands described in Paragraph (b) which have been conveyed from Federal ownership.

Order

By virtue of the authority vested in the Secretary of Interior by section 204 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, 43 U.S.C. 1714 (2000), it is ordered as follows:

The Secretarial Orders dated September 2, 1914, November 4, 1914, March 17, 1916, February 5, 1923, March 28, 1925, February 18, 1937, and April 30, 1945, which withdrew public lands for the Bureau of Reclamation's Owyhee Reclamation Project, are hereby revoked insofar as they affect the following described lands:
