SUMMARY: The City of Barstow has issued a quitclaim deed to the United

and title was accepted on behalf of the United States on June 7, 1995.
EFFECTIVE DATE: August 18, 1995.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John Beck, BLM California State Office
(CA-931.2), 2800 Cottage Way, Room E-2845, Sacramento California,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 30, 1965, Patent No. 04-65-0234 was
issued to the City of Barstow under the Act of June 14, 1926 as amended
(43 U.S.C. 869 et seq) for the following described land:
San Bernardino Meridian
T. 9 N., R. 2 W.
Sec. 15, W\1/2\NE\1/4\NE\1/4\, W\1/2\NE\1/4\NE\1/4\NE\1/4\,
NE\1/4\NE\1/4\NE\1/4\NE\1/4\, W\1/2\SE\1/4\NE\1/4\NE\1/4\, NE\1/
4\SE\1/4\NE\1/4\NE\1/4\, W\1/2\SE\1/4\NE\1/4\, N\1/2\NE\1/4\SE\1/
4\NE\1/4\, SW\1/4\NE\1/4\SE\1/4\NE\1/4\, SW\1/4\SE\1/4\SE\1/4\NE\1/
4\, SW\1/4\NE\1/4\, S\1/2\ NW\1/4\NE\1/4\, NE\1/4\NW\1/4\NE\1/4\.
The patent contained a provision that the land would revert to the
United States in the event the patentee or its successor, used the land
for purposes other than that specified in the patent. The land was not
improved in accordance with the provision of the plan of development on
file with this Bureau; therefore, the land reverted back to the United
States by operation of law.
At 10 a.m. on August 18, 1995, the land will be opened to the
operation of the public land laws generally, subject to valid existing
rights, the provisions of existing withdrawals, other segregations of
record, and the requirements of applicable law. All valid applications
received at or prior to 10 a.m. on August 18, 1995, shall be considered
as simultaneously filed at that time. Those received thereafter shall
be considered in the order of filing.
At 10 a.m. on August 18, 1995, the land will be opened to location
and entry under the United States mining laws subject to valid existing
rights, the provisions of existing withdrawals, other segregations of
record, and the requirements of applicable law. Appropriation of any of
the land described in this order under the general mining laws prior to
the date and time of restoration is unauthorized. Any such attempted
appropriation, including attempted adverse possession under 30 U.S.C.
38 (1988), shall vest no rights against the United States. Acts
required to establish a location and to initiate a right of possession
are governed by State law where not in conflict with Federal laws. The
Bureau of Land Management will not intervene in disputes between rival
locators over possessory rights since Congress has provided for such
determinations in local courts.
Dated: July 10, 1995.
David McIlnay,
Chief, Branch of Lands.
