Section 102 of the WOTFA conveyed BLM-administered lands to the Cow Creek Band of the Umpqua Tribe of Indians and Section 202 of the WOTFA conveyed BLM-administered lands to the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians. Sections 105 and 205 of the WOTFA required the BLM to reclassify public domain lands as O&C lands in approximately equal acreage and condition as the conveyed O&C lands. In accordance with sections 105(c) and 205(c) of the WOTFA, the BLM has prepared maps depicting the conveyed lands. Also, in accordance with sections 105(c) and 205(c) of the WOTFA, the BLM has prepared maps depicting the reclassified lands. As required by the WOTFA, the BLM provided opportunity for public comment prior to finalizing the identification of the reclassified lands. Public comment opportunities included a 30-day public scoping period and a 30-day public comment period on the environmental assessment developed by the BLM to assess alternatives for potential lands for reclassification. The maps described herein have been submitted to Congress and are available for public inspection (see ADDRESSES ). (Authority: P.L. 115-103, 131 STAT. 2253) Barry R.
