SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Las Vegas Field Office, 
has examined and found suitable for classification for lease and 
subsequent conveyance under the provisions of the Recreation and Public 
Purposes (R&PP) Act, as amended, approximately 2.98 acres of public

the Las Vegas Valley.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The parcel is located south of the existing 
Wayne Bunker Park on Constantinople Avenue between Buffalo Drive and 
Tenaya Way in northwest Las Vegas and is legally described as:

Mount Diablo Meridian, Nevada

T. 20 S., R. 60 E.,
    Sec. 10, SW\1/4\NE\1/4\NW\1/4\NW\1/4\.

    The area described contains 2.98 acres in Clark County, Nevada.

    In accordance with the R&PP Act, the City of Las Vegas has filed an 
application to develop the above-described land as a community park 
consisting of picnic shelters, children's play area, restrooms, 
pedestrian walkways, parking and turf open space play areas. Additional 
detailed information pertaining to this publication, plan of 
development, and site plan is located in case file N-94628, which is 
available for review at the BLM Las Vegas Field Office at the above 
address.
    The City of Las Vegas is a political subdivision of the State of 
Nevada and is therefore a qualified applicant under the R&PP Act.
    Subject to limitations prescribed by law and regulation, prior to 
patent issuance, the holder of any right-of-way grant within the lease 
area may be given the opportunity to amend the right-of-way grant for 
conversion to a new term, including perpetuity, if applicable.
    The land identified is not needed for any Federal purpose. The 
lease and/or conveyance is consistent with the BLM Las Vegas Resource 
Management Plan dated October 5, 1998, and would be in the public 
interest. The City of Las Vegas has not applied for more than the 640-
acre limitation for public purpose uses in a year and has submitted a 
statement in compliance with the regulations at 43CFR 2741.4(b).
    The lease and conveyance, when issued, will be subject to the 
provisions of the R&PP Act and applicable regulations of the Secretary 
of the Interior, and will contain the following reservations to the 
United States:
    1. A right-of-way thereon for ditches or canals constructed by the 
authority of the United States, Act of August 30, 1890 (43 U.S.C. 945); 
and
    2. All minerals shall be reserved to the United States, together 
with the right to prospect for, mine, and remove such deposits for the 
same under applicable law and such regulations as the Secretary of the 
Interior may prescribe.
    Any lease and conveyance will also be subject to all valid existing 
rights, will contain any terms or conditions required by law 
(including, but not limited to, any terms or conditions required by 43 
CFR 2741,4), and will contain an appropriate indemnification clause 
protecting the United States from claims arising out of the lessee's/
patentee's use, occupancy, or operations on the leased/patented lands. 
It will also contain any other terms and conditions deemed necessary 
and appropriate by the Authorized Officer.
    Upon publication of this Notice in the Federal Register, the land 
described above will be segregated from all other forms of 
appropriation under the public land laws, rights-of-way, including the 
general mining laws, except for lease and conveyance under the R&PP 
Act, leasing under the mineral leasing laws, and disposals under the 
mineral material disposal laws.
    Interested parties may submit written comments on the suitability 
of the land for a public park in the City of Las Vegas. Comments on the 
classification are restricted to whether the land is physically suited 
for the proposal, whether the use will maximize the future use or uses 
of the land, whether

[[Page 13510]]

the use is consistent with local planning and zoning, or if the use is 
consistent with State and Federal programs. Interested parties may also 
submit written comments regarding the specific use proposed in the 
application and plan of development, and whether the BLM followed 
proper administrative procedures in reaching the decision to lease and 
convey under the R&PP Act.
    Before including your address, phone number, email, 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. Only written comments submitted to the Field Manager, 
BLM Las Vegas Field Office, will be considered properly filed. Any 
adverse comments will be reviewed by the BLM Nevada State Director, who 
may sustain, vacate, or modify this realty action.
    In the absence of any adverse comments, the decision will become 
effective on May 29, 2018. The lands will not be available for lease 
and conveyance until after the decision becomes effective.

    Authority: 43 CFR 2741.5.
