and SW1/4NW1/4SE1/4;
    Sec. 9, SW1/4NW1/4NW1/4.

    The areas described aggregate 55 acres.
    This classification is in conformance with the St. George Resource 
Management Plan (RMP), approved in March 1999, and is not needed for 
any Federal purpose. Conveyance is consistent with BLM planning for the 
area and would be in the public interest. The parcel was analyzed in a 
site-specific Environmental Assessment numbered DOI-BLM-UT-C030-2016-
0055. A conveyance would be subject to the provisions of the R&PP Act, 
applicable regulations of the Secretary of the Interior, including, but 
not limited to, 43 CFR subpart 2743 and the following reservations to 
the United States:
    1. A right-of-way reservation for ditches or canals constructed by 
authority of the United States under the Act of August 30, 1890 (43 
U.S.C. 945).
    2. The conveyance will be subject to all valid existing rights of 
record.
    3. All minerals are reserved to the United States, together with 
the right to prospect for, mine, and remove the minerals, under 
applicable laws and regulations established by the Secretary of the 
Interior.
    4. An indemnification clause protecting the United States from 
claims arising out of the patentee's use, occupancy, or operation on 
the land.
    5. A limited reversionary provision stating that the title shall 
revert to the United States upon a finding, after notice and 
opportunity for a hearing, that the patentee has not substantially 
developed the lands in accordance with the approved plan of development 
on or before the date five years after the date of conveyance. No 
portion of the land shall under any circumstance revert to the United 
States if any such portion has been used for solid waste disposal or 
for any other purpose which may result in the disposal, placement, or 
release of any hazardous substance.
    6. The patentee shall comply with all Federal and State laws 
applicable to the disposal, placement, or release of hazardous 
substances.
    7. If, at any time, the patentee transfers to another party 
ownership of any portion of the land not used for the purpose(s) 
specified in the application and the approved plan of development, the 
patentee shall pay the Bureau of Land Management the fair market value, 
as determined by the authorized officer, of the transferred portion as 
of the date of transfer, including the value of any improvements 
thereon.
    8. Any other reservations that the authorized officer determines 
appropriate to ensure public access and proper management of Federal 
lands and interests therein.
    On publication of this Notice, the above described land will be 
segregated from all other forms of appropriation under the public land 
laws, including the general mining laws, except for conveyance under 
the R&PP Act and leasing under the mineral leasing laws. Information 
concerning the conveyance, including planning and environmental 
documents, are available for review during business hours, 7:30 a.m. to 
4:30 p.m., Mountain Time, Monday through Friday, at the BLM, St. George 
Field Office, except during Federal holidays.
    Comments on the classification are restricted to four subjects:
    (1) Whether the land is physically suited for the proposal;
    (2) Whether the use will maximize the future uses of the land;
    (3) Whether the use is consistent with local planning and zoning; 
and
    (4) If the use is consistent with State and Federal programs.
    Application Comments: You may submit comments regarding the 
specific use proposed in the application and plan of development, 
whether the BLM followed proper administrative procedures in reaching 
the decision, or any other factor not directly related to the 
suitability of the land for the requested R&PP use.
    Before including your address, phone number, email address, or 
other personal identifying information in any comment, be aware that 
your entire comment including any personal identifying information may 
be made publicly available at any time. Requests to withhold personal 
identifying information from public review can be submitted, but the 
BLM cannot guarantee that it will be able to do so. Any adverse 
comments will be reviewed by the BLM State Director or other authorized 
official of the Department of the Interior, who may sustain, vacate, or 
modify this realty action. In the absence of any adverse comments, this 
realty action will become the final determination of the Department of 
the Interior.

    Authority:  43 CFR 2741.5.
