Realty Action; Proposed Modified Competitive Sale

    The following described public land has been examined and 
determined to be suitable for transfer out of Federal ownership by 
direct sale under the authority of Sections 203 and 209 of the Federal 
Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, as amended (90 Stat. 2750; 43 
U.S.C. 1713 and 90 Stat. 2757; 43 U.S.C. 1719), at not less than the 
appraised fair market value:

Willamette Meridian, Oregon,

T. 12 S., R. 6 W.,
    Sec. 35, Lot 3.

    The above-described parcel contains 0.20 acre in Benton County.

    The parcel will not be offered for sale until at least 60 days 
after publication of this notice in the Federal Register. The fair 
market value of the parcel has not yet been determined. Anyone 
interested in knowing the value may request this information from the 
address shown below.
    The above-described land is hereby segregated from appropriation 
under the public land laws, including the mining laws, but not from 
sale under the above-cited statute, for 270 days or until title

[[Page 10594]]
transfer is completed or the segregation is terminated by publication 
in the Federal Register, whichever occurs first.
    The parcel is difficult and uneconomic to manage as part of the 
public lands and is not suitable for management by another Federal 
department or agency. No significant resource values will be affected 
by this transfer. The sale is consistent with the Salem District 
Resource Management Plan and the public interest will be served by 
offering this parcel for sale.
    The parcel is being offered only to Robert W. Mommsen, Jeanne L. 
Mommsen, and David R. Lorence, fee owners of the adjoining property to 
the east and south. Use of the direct sale procedures authorized under 
43 CFR 2711.3-3, will avoid an inappropriate land ownership pattern and 
recognize equities of the individuals involved.
    The terms, conditions, and reservations applicable to the sale are 
as follows:
    1. Robert W. Mommsen, Jeanne L. Mommsen, and David R. Lorence will 
be required to submit a deposit of either cash, bank draft, money 
order, or any combination thereof for not less than the appraised 
value.
    2. The mineral interests being offered for conveyance have no known 
mineral value. A bid will also constitute an application for conveyance 
of the mineral estate, in accordance with Section 209 of the Federal 
Land Policy and Management Act. The designated bidders must include 
with their bid a nonrefundable $50.00 filing fee for the conveyance of 
the mineral estate.
    2. The patent will subject to:
    a. Rights-of-way for ditches or canals will be reserved to the 
United States under 43 U.S.C. 945; and
    b. All valid existing rights and reservations of record.
    Detailed information concerning the sale is available for review at 
the Salem District Office, address above.
    For a period of 45 days from the date of publication of this notice 
in the Federal Register, interested parties may submit comments to the 
Marys Peak Area Manager, Salem District Office, address above. Any 
adverse comments will be reviewed by the Salem District Manager, who 
may sustain, vacate, or modify this realty action. In the absence of 
any adverse comments, this realty action will become the final 
determination of the Department of the Interior.

    Dated: March 5, 1996.
John P. Bacho,
Marys Peak Area Manager.
