Public Land Order No. 7346; Partial Revocation of Executive Order
Dated July 9, 1910; Montana
AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.
ACTION: Public Land Order.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This order partially revokes an Executive order insofar as it
affects approximately 310 acres of National Forest System land
withdrawn for the Bureau of Land Management's Coal Reserve Montana No.

temporarily closed to surface entry and mining, by the Forest Service
exchange proposal.
