E7-13980 Filed 7-18-07; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4310-55-P DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Bureau of Land Management [UT-050-07-1430-EU; UTU-78474] Notice of Intent To Amend the Mountain Valley Management Framework Plan; Utah AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior. ACTION: Notice of Intent and Notice of Realty Action. SUMMARY: A parcel of public land totaling 4.82 acres in Piute County, Utah is being considered for non-competitive (direct) sale under the provisions of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA) at not less than the appraised fair market value. The Bureau of Land Management
(BLM)proposes to amend the Mountain Valley Management Framework Plan to identify the 4.82 acre parcel for sale. DATES: In order to ensure consideration in the environmental analysis of the proposed plan amendment, comments must be received August 20, 2007. ADDRESSES: Address all comments concerning this Notice to the Associate Field Office Manager, BLM Richfield Field Office, 150 East 900 North, Richfield, Utah 84701. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Nancy DeMille, Realty Specialist, at the above address or at
(435)896-1515. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice initiates scoping for the amendment of the Mountain Valley management Framework Plan
(1982)as amended (MVMFP), in accordance with 43 CFR 1610.2(c). If and when the BLM State Director does or does not approve such an amendment, the public will be notified in accordance with 43 CFR 1610.5-5. The BLM intends to amend the MVMFP because the following described public land in Piute County, Utah is being considered for non-competitive (direct) sale under the authority of section 203 of the FLPMA of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1713): Salt Lake Meridian, Utah T. 27 S., R. 4 W., Sec. 26, Lot 53B The area described contains 4.82 acres in Piute County. Sale of the lands described would not be in conformance with the current land use plan. The MVMFP does not identify this tract for a FLPMA sale. The proposed plan amendment would serve to identify the 4.82 acre tract for disposal consistent with the sale criteria in section 203 of the FLPMA, in order to allow for the possibility of sale of this parcel. The purpose of the proposed plan amendment, and the consideration of sale of these identified lands is to resolve an inadvertent unauthorized occupancy of the public land, and to protect existing equities in the land, in accordance with 43 CFR 2710.0-6(c)(3)(iii). Should the amendment be approved, the BLM will consider sale of the identified parcel to Audrey G. Roth, current occupant on that parcel. Following a decision to approve the proposed plan amendment, and further procedures in accordance with the FLPMA and its implementing regulations, conveyance of the identified land would be subject to valid existing rights and encumbrances, including but not limited to, rights-of-way for roads and utilities. Conveyance of any mineral interests pursuant to section 209 of the FLPMA will be analyzed during processing of the sale, should it be proposed. Public Comments For a period until August 20, 2007, interested parties and the general public may submit in writing any comments concerning the proposed land use plan amendment, including notification of any encumbrances or other claims relating to the identified public land, to the Associate Field Office Manager, Richfield Field Office, at the above address. In order to ensure consideration in the environmental analysis of the proposed plan amendment, comments must be in writing and postmarked or delivered within 45 days of the initial date of publication of this notice. Comments transmitted by e-mail will not be accepted. Comments, including names and street addresses of respondents, will be available for public review at the BLM Richfield Field Office during regular business hours, except holidays. Before including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be aware your entire comment—including your personal identifying information—may be made publicly available at any time. While you can ask in your comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee we will be able to do so. (Authority: 43 CFR 1610.2(c)) Wayne A. Wetzel, Associate Field Office Manager. [FR Doc. E7-13994 Filed 7-18-07; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4310-DQ-P DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Bureau of Land Management [MT010-1220-FU] Notice of Intent To Collect Fees on Public Land in Yellowstone County, Montana Under the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior. ACTION: Notice of intent. SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM)'s Billings Field Office is proposing to begin collecting fees in 2007 at the Shepherd Ah Nei OHV Area in Yellowstone County, Montana, located in Township 3 N, Range 27 E, Section 1 and Township 3 N, Range 28 E, Section 6. Under Section 2
(13)of the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act (REA), L. 108-447, the Shepherd Ah Nei OHV Area qualifies as a site wherein visitors can be charged a “Special Recreation Permit Fee” authorized under section 3(h). In accordance with REA, and implementing regulations at 43 CFR Part 2930, visitors participating in OHV use (e.g. ATVs, motorcycles, quads), could purchase a Special Recreation Permit
(SRP)to operate their vehicle within the riding area. Each OHV operating within the recreation area would be required to purchase and display the permit. Permits would expire on December 31 of the issue year, regardless of when the permit was purchased. Opportunity to purchase an individual SRP pass for the day would be available onsite to facilitate less frequent users. BLM provides individual special recreation permits for management of special areas as defined in 43 CFR Part 2932.11. 1-2., and in REA under section 3(h). The America The Beautiful—The National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Pass, including the Annual, Senior, Access, and Volunteer passes would not be honored and do not apply to the SRP fee. The National Park Passports, Golden Eagle, Golden Age, and Golden Access Passports would also not be honored and do not apply to the SRP fee. DATES: The public is encouraged to participate in the public comment period that will expire 30 days after the publication of this notice. Effective six months after the publication of this notice, the Bureau of Land Management Billings Field Office will initiate fee collection in the Shepherd Ah Nei OHV Area, unless BLM publishes a **Federal Register** notice to the contrary. The Eastern Montana Resource Advisory Council
(RAC)will review consideration for the new fee at least three months prior to the proposed initiation date. Fees will be established by separate supplemental rules pursuant to 43 CFR 8365.1-6. Future adjustments in the fee amount will be made in accordance with the BLM Shepherd Ah Nei Business Plan, and after consultation with the Eastern Montana Resource Advisory Council and other public notice. ADDRESSES: Mail: Field Manager, Bureau of Land Management, Billings Field Office, 5001 Southgate Drive, Billings, Montana 59101. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: James M. Sparks, Acting Field Manager, Billings Field Office, 5001 Southgate Drive, Billings, Montana 59101. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Shepherd Ah Nei OHV Area is a popular OHV recreation area offering significant opportunities for outdoor recreation and has received substantial Federal investment. The BLM's commitment is to find the proper balance between public use and resource protection. It is the BLM's policy to collect fees at all specialized recreation sites, or where the BLM provides facilities, equipment or services, at federal expense, in connection with outdoor use. In an effort to meet increasing demands for services and maintenance of existing facilities, routes and trails, the BLM would implement a fee program for the Shepherd Ah Nei OHV Area. BLM's mission for the Shepherd Ah Nei OHV Fee Collection Project (Project) is to ensure that funding is available to maintain existing facilities and recreational opportunities, to provide for law enforcement presence, to develop additional services, and to protect resources. This mission entails communication with those who will be most directly affected, for example, recreationists, other recreation providers, neighbors, as well as those who will have a stake in solving concerns that may arise throughout the life of the Project, including elected officials, and other agencies. In January 1999, the BLM and the U.S. Forest Service
(FS)initiated the Off-Highway Vehicle Environmental Impact Statement and Proposed Plan Amendment for Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota (OHV EIS). This EIS considered various ways to minimize the potential for resource damage from cross-country OHV use. The BLM signed a record of decision
(ROD)for this EIS and Plan Amendment in June 2003. In December 2004, the REA was signed into law. The REA provides authority for 10 years for the Secretaries of the Interior and Agriculture to establish, modify, charge, and collect recreation fees for use of some Federal recreation lands and waters, and contains specific provisions addressing public involvement in the establishment of recreation fees, including a requirement that Recreation Resource Advisory Committees or Councils have the opportunity to make recommendations regarding establishment of such fees. The REA also directs the Secretaries of the Interior and Agriculture to publish advance notice in the **Federal Register** whenever new recreation fee areas are established under their respective jurisdictions. In May 2005, the BLM issued the Decision for the Shepherd AH Nei OHV Travel Management Plan, which established roads, trails and areas as open, closed, or limited with respect to vehicular use in the Shepherd Ah Nei OHV Area. This 2005 decision allows for recreation opportunities, issuing of use permits, and charging of fees for use of the Shepherd Ah Nei OHV Area. The establishment of a permit process, and the collection of user fees were also addressed in the Shepherd Ah Nei OHV Business Plan, prepared pursuant to the REA and BLM recreation fee program policy. This Business Plan, in conjunction with the Travel Management Plan, establishes the rationale for charging recreation fees. In accordance with BLM recreation fee program policy, the Business Plan explains the fee collection process, and outlines how the fees will be used at the Shepherd Ah Nei OHV Area. The BLM has notified and involved the public at each stage of the planning process, including the proposal to collect fees. Fee amounts will be posted on-site and at the Billings Field Office; copies of the Business Plan will be available at the Billings Field Office and the BLM Montana State Office, 5001 Southgate Drive, Billings, Montana 59101. The BLM welcomes public comments on this proposal. Before including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, be advised 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 from public review your personal identifying information, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.

(701)227-7700. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The BLM's North Dakota
(ND)RMP/EIS incorporates a planning area administered by the NDFO located in Dickinson, ND. The land area to be covered under the ND RMP/EIS is approximately 58,500 surface acres of public lands and approximately 4.1 million subsurface acres of federal minerals in North Dakota. The bulk of this mineral acreage is federal coal reserve only. Additional acres are federal oil and gas reserves only; and the remaining acres are made up of all minerals, coal and oil and gas only, and other combinations. The focus of the NDFO has been mineral management on split estate lands (fee surface/federal minerals). The BLM's South Dakota
(SD)RMP/EIS incorporates a planning area administered by the SDFO located in Belle Fourche, SD. The land area to be covered under the SD RMP/EIS is approximately 278,000 subsurface acres of BLM-administered public land located in the western part of the state in Brule, Butte, Custer, Fall River, Haakon, Harding, Jackson, Lawrence, Lyman, Meade, Pennington, Perkins, and Stanley Counties. There are also approximately 1.6 million subsurface acres of federal minerals in South Dakota. The RMP/EIS revisions to be prepared for the public lands administered by the NDFO and SDFO will identify goals, objectives, standards, and guidelines for management of a variety of resources and values. The scope of the RMP/EISs will be comprehensive. The plans will specify actions, constraints, and general management practices necessary to achieve desired conditions. The plans will also identify any areas requiring special management such as Areas of Critical Environmental Concern. Certain existing standards and guidelines and other BLM plans/plan amendments will be incorporated into the RMP/EISs. The plans will fulfill the needs and obligations set forth by the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA), the National Energy Policy Act of 2005, and all other related acts, laws, and regulations associated with land management planning and BLM management policies. The BLM will work collaboratively with the public, local and State governments, and Tribal governments to identify the management decisions that are best suited to local, regional, and national needs and concerns. The public scoping process will identify planning issues and develop planning criteria, including evaluation of the existing RMPs in the context of the needs and interests of the public. The BLM's decision to begin a new planning effort for the public lands in the NDFO and SDFO is based on public and agency need for revised management guidance to address changing issues. Each RMP/EIS will describe and analyze a range of alternatives, including the No Action alternative (continued management) and a number of action alternatives that will describe options for addressing the major issues. Preliminary issues and management concerns have been identified by BLM personnel, other agencies, and individuals and user groups. The major issues that will be addressed in the development of both RMPs/EISs include the following: 1. Energy development—the significant amount of oil and gas and coal leasing, exploration, and development throughout North Dakota and increasing oil and gas leasing interest in South Dakota; 2. Wildland-Urban Interface—increase in recreational demand for BLM public lands and increasing development adjoining BLM public lands; 3. Management of vegetation; 4. Management of wildlife; 5. Conservation and recovery of special status species; 6. Travel management and access to public lands; 7. Availability and management of public lands for commercial uses; and 8. Land tenure adjustments. After gathering public comments on what issues the plans should address, the suggested issues will be placed in one of three categories: 1. Issues to be resolved in the plans; 2. Issues to be resolved through policy or administrative action; or 3. Issues that are beyond the scope of the plans. Rationale will be provided for each issue placed in categories two or three. In addition to determining these major issues, the BLM will address a number of management questions and concerns in the plans. The public is encouraged to help identify these questions and concerns during the scoping phase. The BLM will use an interdisciplinary approach to consider the variety of resource issues and concerns identified. Disciplines involved in the planning process will include specialists with expertise in minerals and geology, forestry, range, fire and fuels, outdoor recreation, archaeology, paleontology, wildlife and fisheries, lands and realty, hydrology, soils, sociology, environmental justice, and economics. The following planning criteria have been proposed to guide development of the plans, avoid unnecessary data collection and analyses, and to ensure the plan is tailored to the issues. Other criteria may be identified during the public scoping process. After gathering comments on planning criteria, the BLM will finalize the criteria and provide feedback to the public on the criteria to be used throughout the planning process. • The RMPs/EISs will recognize valid existing rights. • Planning decisions will only apply to surface lands and subsurface lands managed by the BLM. • The ND RMP/EIS will incorporate by reference the EIS Coal Lease ND RMP/Amendment (October 1990); Big Horn Sheep ND RMP Environmental Assessment (EA)/Amendment (July 1991); Standards for Rangeland Health and Guidelines for Livestock Grazing Management for Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota (August 1997); Off-Highway Vehicle EIS and Plan Amendment for Montana and the Dakotas (June 2003); and the Fire/Fuels Management Plan EA/Plan Amendment for Montana and the Dakotas (September 2003). • The SD RMP/EIS will incorporate by reference the Oil and Gas RMP/EIS Amendment Miles City District Final EIS (February 1994); Standards for Rangeland Health and Guidelines for Livestock Grazing Management for Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota (August 1997); Off-Highway Vehicle EIS and Plan Amendment for Montana and the Dakotas (June 2003); and the Fire/Fuels Management Plan EA/Plan Amendment for Montana and the Dakotas (September 2003). • Decisions in the plans will strive to be compatible with the existing plans and policies of affected local, state, and federal agencies as long as the decisions are consistent with the purposes, policies, and programs of federal law, and with regulations applicable to public lands. • The RMPs/EISs will recognize states' responsibilities and authorities to manage wildlife. The BLM will consult with the ND Game and Fish Department and the SD Department of Game, Fish and Parks, as necessary. • The BLM and cooperating agencies/governments will jointly develop alternatives for resolution of resource management issues. • The State Historic Preservation Offices will be consulted and involved throughout the RMP/EIS process. • Each RMP/EIS will emphasize the protection and enhancement of the planning areas' biodiversity while, at the same time, provide the public with opportunities for compatible activities on public lands. • Lands acquired by the BLM will be managed in the manner the RMPs/EISs prescribe for adjacent public land, subject to any constraints associated with the acquisition. • The RMPs/EISs will provide management direction for lands returned to BLM management through revocation of withdrawals. The plans will also address lands acquired through other means. • Lands already identified for disposal will be reviewed to ensure disposal is in the best interest of the public. • The National Sage Grouse Strategy requires that impacts to sagebrush habitat and sagebrush-dependent wildlife species (including sage grouse) be analyzed and considered in these RMPs/EISs due to the presence of sage grouse/sagebrush habitats in the planning area. • Forest management strategies will be consistent with the Healthy Forests Restoration Act and the Tribal Forest Protection Act, where appropriate. • Fire management strategies will be consistent with the: 2001 Federal Wildland Fire Policy, National Fire Plan; Fire/Fuels Management Plan for Montana and Dakotas; Prescribed Fire Planning and Implementation Procedures Reference Guide, and other relevant policies. • Geographic Information System
(GIS)and metadata information will meet Federal Geographic Data Committee
(FGDC)standards, as required by E.O. 12906 of April 11, 1994. • All proposed management actions will be based upon best available scientific information, research and technology, as well as existing inventory and monitoring information. • The RMPs/EISs will include adaptive management criteria and protocol to deal with future issues. • The RMPs/EISs will incorporate Best Management Practices for surface disturbing activities associated with BLM-authorized activities on federal oil and gas leases.
