Résumé
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) proposes to withdraw 200 acres of public land and 160 acres of public domain minerals for 50 years to protect the public and the U.S. Government by restricting public use of a contaminated site. This land was previously withdrawn by Public Land Order No. 5344 which has expired. However, the land has not been opened to operation of the public land laws. This order closes the land to operation of the public land laws and to location and entry under the mining laws for up to two years while the application is processed. This order also relieves the land of the segregative effect of Public Land Order 5344. The proposed withdrawal will close the land and allow DOE to test and determine when the land is suitable for public use. The land remains open to mineral leasing subject to approval by the DOE.
