AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice of Realty Action; Direct Sale of Public Lands in Carbon 
County.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The following public land in Carbon County has been examined 
and found suitable for direct sale under section 203 of the Federal 
Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, 43 U.S.C. 1713:

Sixth Principal Meridian, Wyoming

T. 13 N., R. 91 W.,
    Sec. 31, lot 6 and N\1/2\NE\1/4\.

    These lands contain approximately 120 acres.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Larry Jackson, Natural Resource 
Specialist, Bureau of Land Management, Rawlins Field Office, P.O. Box 
2407 Rawlins, Wyoming 82301 307-328-4231.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Bureau of Land Management proposes to 
sell the surface estate of the above-described lands, to the Baggs 
Solid Waste Disposal District, pursuant to Section 203 of the Federal 
Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, 43 U.S.C. 1713. The Disposal 
District wishes to acquire the land for landfill expansion purposes, 
because the current landfill is nearing its capacity.
    The proposed direct sale to the Baggs Solid Waste Disposal District 
would be made at fair market value.
    The proposed direct sale is consistent with the Great Divide 
Resource Management Plan and would serve important public objectives 
which cannot be achieved prudently or feasibly elsewhere. The lands 
contain no other known public values. The planning document and 
environmental assessment covering the proposed sale is available for 
review at the Rawlins Field Office, Bureau of Land Management, 1300 
North Third Street, Rawlins, Wyoming.
    Conveyance of the above public lands will be subject to:
    1. Reservation of a right-of-way to the United States for ditches 
and canals pursuant to the Act of August 30, 1890, 43 U.S.C. 945.
    2. Reservation of all minerals pursuant to section 209 of the 
Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, 43 U.S.C. 1719.
    3. All valid existing rights documented on the official public land 
records at the time of conveyance.
    4. The patentee shall comply with all applicable Federal and State 
laws, including laws dealing with the disposal, placement, or release 
of hazardous substances.
    The public lands described above shall be segregated from all forms 
of appropriation under the public land laws, including the mining laws, 
upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register. The 
segregative effect will end upon issuance of the patent or 270 days 
from the date of the publication, whichever comes first.
    For a period of forty-five (45) days from the date of issuance of 
this notice, interested parties may submit comments to the Bureau of 
Land Management, Rawlins Field Office, 1300 North Third Street, P.O. 
Box 2407, Rawlins, Wyoming 82301. Any adverse comments will be 
evaluated by the State Director, who may sustain, vacate, or modify 
this realty action. In the absence of any objections, this proposed 
realty action will become final.

    Dated: July 9, 1999.
Kurt J. Kotter,
Field Manager.
