Résumé
Pursuant to a petition and a letter requesting Secretarial review, the Secretary of the Interior has decided to exercise his authority as set forth in 43 CFR 4.5 to review United States v. United Mining Corporation (United Mining), 142 IBLA 339 (1998), a decision that raises important mining law issues arising under the Building Stone Act. Of particular importance in this matter is the meaning of the phrase ``chiefly valuable'' in that statute. In order to undertake his review, the Secretary will accept briefs on the issues set forth in the Supplementary Information according to the schedule and instructions in that portion of this Notice. Pending conclusion of the Secretary's review of this matter, the decision of the IBLA is stayed.
