SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Stonewater II, LLC, the surface owner, has 
applied to purchase the undivided federally owned phosphate mineral 
interest located in Lee County, Florida, in a parcel described as 
follows:

Tallahassee Meridian, Florida

T. 44 S., R. 23 E.,
    sec. 10, NE\1/4\.
    The area described contains 160 acres.

    As required under Section 209(3)(i) of FLPMA, the applicant 
deposited a sum of money determined sufficient to cover administrative 
costs, including, but not limited to, the cost for the Mineral 
Potential Report. The objective of Section 209 is to allow 
consolidation of the surface and mineral interests when either one of 
the following conditions exists: (1) There are no known mineral values 
in the land; or (2) Where continued Federal ownership of the mineral 
interests interferes with or precludes appropriate non-mineral 
development and such development is a more beneficial use of the land 
than mineral development.
    Stonewater II, LLC, a Michigan Limited Liability Company, the 
surface owner, filed an application for the conveyance of federally 
owned phosphate mineral interests in the above-described tract of land, 
subject to valid existing rights.
    On November 18, 2016 the federally owned mineral interests in the 
lands described above are hereby segregated from all forms of 
appropriation under the public land laws, including the mining laws, 
while the application is being processed to determine if either one of 
the two specified conditions exists and, if so, to otherwise comply 
with the procedural requirements of 43 CFR part 2720. The segregation 
shall terminate: (1) Upon issuance of a patent or other document of 
conveyance as to such mineral interests; (2) upon final rejection of 
the application; or (3) on November 19, 2018, whichever occurs first.
    Please submit all comments in writing to the address listed 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 available to the public at any time. While you can ask in 
your comment to withhold your personal identifying information from 
public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.

    Authority: 43 CFR 2720.1-1(b).
