Resumen

The Bureau of Land Management proposes to withdraw 3,620 acres of public and non-Federal land from settlement, sale, location or entry under the general land laws including the mining laws but not the mineral leasing laws, for a period of 50 years. The purpose of the proposed withdrawal is to protect the archaeological resources in the Gila River Cultural Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC), also known as Sears Point Archaeological District. This notice temporarily closes the land for up to 2 years until various studies and analysis are completed to support a final decision.
