Heick, Realty Specialist, Kemmerer Resource Area, Rock Springs District, Bureau of Land Management, 312 Highway 189 North, Kemmerer, Wyoming 83101, 307-877- 3933, extension 106. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Bureau of Land Management proposes to sell the surface estate to General Chemical Corporation pursuant to Section 203 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, 43 U.S.C. 1713. General Chemical Corporation wishes to acquire the area for a landfill in conjunction with their sodium lease. The proposed direct sale to General Chemical Corporation would be made at fair market value. The proposed direct sale, located within General Chemical Corporation's sodium lease boundary (WYW-095425), is consistent with the Kemmerer Resource Area Management Plan and would serve important public objectives which cannot be achieved prudently or feasibly elsewhere. The planning document and environmental assessment are available for review at the Bureau of Land Management, Kemmerer Resource Area Office, Kemmerer, 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(a) of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, 43 U.S.C. 1719. There will be no cancellation of existing federal grazing rights. Those AUMs associated with the above referenced parcel will be absorbed by the operators in the balance of the Granger Lease allotment. Upon publication of this notice in the Federal Register, the above described land will be segregated from all forms of appropriation under the public land laws, including the general mining laws, except for leasing under the mineral leasing laws. 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, District Manager, Rock Springs District office, 280 Highway 191 North, Rock Springs, WY 82901. Any adverse comments will be reviewed 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 3, 1997. Mark Hatchel, Acting Area Manager. [FR Doc. 97-18191 Filed 7-10-97; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4310-22-P-M
