Boise Meridian
T. 6 N., R. 5 W.,

The area described contains approximately 40 acres in Canyon
County.
In accordance with the R&PP Act, the Treasure Valley Aero Modelers,
a non-profit association, filed an application to lease the above-
described property for a runway and related improvements for flying
radio-controlled model airplanes. Rental has been determined using the
BLM R&PP Pricing Guidelines. Additional detailed information pertaining
to this application, plan of development, and site plans are in case
file IDI-34392, located in the BLM Four Rivers Field Office at the
address above.
Lease of this land is consistent with the BLM Cascade Resource
Management Plan, dated July 1, 1988, as amended, and would be in the
public interest. The Treasure Valley Aero Modelers have not applied for
more than 640 acres in a year for recreational purposes, the limit set
in 43 CFR 2741.7(a)(5), and have submitted a statement in compliance
with the regulations at 43 CFR 2741.4(b). Any lease will be subject to
the provisions of the R&PP Act and applicable regulations of the
Secretary of the Interior. Any lease of this land will be subject to
valid existing rights; will contain any terms or conditions required by
law or regulation, including a provision for termination upon a finding
that the land has not been utilized for the purpose specified for a
time period to be specified in the lease or that the land is being
devoted to another use; will contain a provision
[[Page 29786]]
prohibiting the disposal, placement, or release of any hazardous
substance; and will contain an appropriate indemnification clause
protecting the United States from claims arising out of the lessee's
use, occupancy or operations on the leased lands. It will also contain
any other terms or conditions deemed necessary or appropriate by the
authorized officer. As of May 23, 2011, the above-described land is
segregated from all forms of appropriation under the public land laws,
including the United States mining laws, except for lease under the
R&PP Act.
Public Comments: Interested parties may submit written comments
involving the suitability of the land for a runway and related
improvements for flying radio-controlled model airplanes. Comments
transmitted via e-mail, facsimile, or other electronic means will not
be accepted. Comments on the classification are restricted to whether
the land is physically suited for the proposal, whether the use will
maximize future uses of the land, whether the use is consistent with
local planning and zoning, or if the use is consistent with State and
Federal programs.
Interested parties may also submit written comments regarding the
specific use proposed in the application and plan of development,
whether the BLM followed proper administrative procedures in reaching
its decision or any other factor not directly related to the
suitability of the land for R&PP Act use.
Before including your address, phone number, e-mail 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.
Any adverse written comments on the proposed classification and
lease will be reviewed by the BLM Idaho State Director, who may
sustain, vacate or modify this realty action and classification, and
issue a final determination. In the absence of any objections, the
classification of the land described in this notice will become
effective on July 22, 2011. The land will not be available for lease
until after the classification becomes effective.
Authority: 43 CFR 2741.5.
