The Bureau of Land Management has issued a public land order affecting the Fallon Range Training Complex.
The Bureau of Land Management has announced it has issued a public land order that extends the withdrawal of 684,838.84 acres of public land in Churchill, Lyon, Mineral, Nye and Pershing counties in connection with the Department of the Navy’s modernization of Naval Air Station Fallon, Fallon Range Training Complex.
The BLM formally processes land withdrawal applications for entities within the Department of the Interior.
The four-year extension maintains current uses and restrictions. In addition, 68,809.44 acres of federal land in the Dixie Valley area of Churchill County are withdrawn from leasing under the mineral leasing laws. Non-federal lands totaling 66,160.53 acres are described within the withdrawal area.
Any current or future federal estate interest in these non-federal lands is subject to this withdrawal.
The public lands order also corrects a portion of the legal land description published in the Federal Register on Aug. 31, 2018 (83 FR 44654).
The Federal Register notice is available on the Carson City District web page at Carson City District Office. For information, contact Colleen Dingman, project manager, at 775-885-6168 or email at cjdingman@blm.gov.
