Notice of Application for a Recordable Disclaimer of Interest: 
Dimmit County, Texas

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) received an application 
for a Recordable Disclaimer of Interest (Disclaimer of Interest) from 
Gringita, Ltd. pursuant to the Federal Land Policy and Management Act 
of 1976 (FLPMA), as amended, and the regulations in 43 CFR subpart 
1864, for certain mineral estate in Dimmit County, Texas. This notice 
is intended to inform the public of the pending application, give 
notice of BLM's intention to grant the requested Disclaimer of 
Interest, and provide a public comment period for the proposed 
Disclaimer of Interest.

DATES: Comments on this action should be received by April 19, 2017.

ADDRESSES: Written comments must be sent to the Deputy State Director, 
Lands and Resources, BLM, New Mexico State Office, P.O. Box 27115, 
Santa Fe, NM 87502-0115.

above individual. You will receive a reply during normal business

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The purpose of this Disclaimer is to remove 
a cloud on the title of a mineral interest in Dimmit County, Texas.
    In 1938, the Banking Commissioner of Texas, as receiver for the 
Commonwealth Bank and Trust Company (in liquidation), reported to have 
conveyed a one-half, non-participating royalty interest in the property 
described below to the Reconstruction Finance Corporation (RFC), an 
independent agency of the United States Government. However, the real 
property records of Dimmit County, and the records of the United 
States, do not indicate that the Commonwealth Bank and Trust Company 
ever obtained this one-half, non-participating royalty interest in the 
property prior to the 1938 Banking Commissioner's action. The BLM 
therefore believes that the United States does not own this interest in 
the property described below. However, the conveyance from the Banking 
Commissioner of Texas to the RFC creates a cloud on the title. 
Therefore, pursuant to Section 315 of FLPMA, the BLM proposes to 
disclaim any claim by the United States to this one-half, non-
participating royalty interest in the property described below.
    The lands are described as:

    Dimmit County, Texas

Parcel One

    393.5 acres, being 50.94 acres, H.R. Trammel Survey No. 487\1/
2\, Abstract No. 1508 and 342.56 acres, James P. Trezevant Survey 
No. 487, Abstract No. 708.

Parcel Two

    621.26 acres, M. Devereaux Survey No. 488, Abstract No. 52.
    The area described contains 1,014.76 acres, more or less.

    This proposed Disclaimer of Interest does not address any surface 
interest that may still be vested with the United States of America.
    The public is hereby notified that comments may be submitted to the 
Deputy State Director, Lands and Resources at the address shown above 
within the comment period identified in the notice. Any adverse 
comments will be evaluated by the State Director who may modify or 
vacate this action and issue a final determination.
    In the absence of any valid objection, this notice will become the 
final determination of the Department of the Interior and a Disclaimer 
of Interest may be issued 90 days from publication of this notice.
    All persons who wish to present comments, suggestions, or 
objections in connection with the proposed Disclaimer of Interest may 
do so by writing to the Deputy State Director at the above address. 
Comments, including names and street addresses of commenters, will be 
available for public review at the BLM New Mexico State Office (see 
address above), during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, 
except Federal holidays. 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.

    Authority: 43 CFR 1864.2(a).
