Résumé
Public Land Order (PLO) No. 6502, withdrawing land on behalf of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), expired on January 22, 1989. The order withdrew 9,183.50 acres of BLM-administered land from location and entry under the mining laws, but not the mineral leasing laws to protect residential lands in and near the Town of Wickenburg in Maricopa and Yavapai Counties. The purpose of the withdrawal was to prevent mining claim conflicts from occurring within a 5-year period during which the private land owners could seek to acquire the mineral estate under authority of Sec. 209 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976. This action, a requirement under 43 CFR 2091.6, will open the land to location and entry under the United States mining laws.
