-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Assistant Secretary of the Interior for Land and Minerals 
Management proposes to extend the duration of Public Land Order (PLO) 
No. 7209 for an additional 20-year term. PLO No. 7209 withdrew 3.25 
acres of

public land from settlement, sale, location, or entry under the general 
lands laws, including the United States mining laws and leasing under 
the mineral leasing laws, to protect the fragile, unique, and/or 
endangered natural and cultural resources at Cape Johnson located 
adjacent to the Olympic National Park in Clallam County, Washington. In 
addition, this notice gives the public an opportunity to comment on the 
proposed withdrawal extension application and to a request a public 
meeting.

DATES: The BLM must receive comments and public meeting requests by May 
31, 2016.

ADDRESS:  Comments and meeting requests should be sent to the Bureau of 
Land Management (BLM) Oregon/Washington State Director, P.O. Box 2965, 
Portland, Oregon 97208-2965.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jacob Childers, Land Law Examiner, at 
the address above or by telephone at 503-808-6225, or Barbara Holyoke 
at 206-220-4092, National Park Service (NPS), 168 South Jackson St., 
Seattle, WA 98104. Persons who use a telecommunications device for the 
deaf (TDD) may call the Federal Information Relay Service (FIRS) at 1-
800-877-8339 to contact either of the above individuals. The FIRS is 
available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to leave a message or 
question. You will receive a reply during normal business hours.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The withdrawal created by PLO No. 7209 (61 
FR 38783 (1996)), will expire July 24, 2016, unless it is extended, and 
is incorporated herein by reference. The NPS filed a petition/
application to extend PLO No. 7209 for an additional 20-year term. PLO 
No. 7209 withdrew 3.25 acres of public land from settlement, sale, 
location, and entry under the general land laws, including the United 
States mining laws and leasing under the mineral leasing laws, subject 
to valid existing rights.
    The Assistant Secretary for Land and Minerals Management has 
approved the petition/application of the NPS. Therefore, the petition/
application constitutes a withdrawal extension proposal of the 
Secretary of the Interior (43 CFR 2310.1-3(e)).
    The purpose of the proposed withdrawal extension is to protect the 
fragile, unique, and endangered resources at Cape Johnson in Clallam 
County, Washington.
    The use of right-of-way, interagency agreement, or cooperative 
agreement would not provide adequate protection. There are no suitable 
alternative sites as the described lands are the actual lands in need 
of protection.
    The NPS would not need to acquire water rights to fulfill the 
purpose of the requested withdrawal extension.
    For the period until May 31, 2016, all persons who wish to submit 
comments, suggestions, or objections in connection with the proposed 
withdrawal application may present their views in writing to the BLM 
State Director Oregon State Office at the address indicated above. 
Before including your address, phone number, email 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.
    Notice is hereby given that an opportunity for a public meeting is 
offered in connection with the proposed withdrawal extension. All 
interested parties who desire a public meeting for the purpose of being 
heard on the proposed withdrawal extension must submit a written 
request to the BLM Oregon/Washington State Director no later than May 
31, 2016. Upon determination by the authorized officer that a public 
meeting will be held, a notice of the time and place will be published 
in the Federal Register and a local newspaper at least 30 days before 
the scheduled date of the meeting.
    The application will be processed in accordance with the 
regulations set forth in 43 CFR 2310.4.

Steve Storo,
Acting Chief, Branch of Land, Mineral, and Energy Resources.
