AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.
ACTION: Public Land Order.

Secretarial Orders in their entireties, as they affect approximately
7,955 acres of lands withdrawn for the Bureau of Reclamation's Carlsbad
and Rio Grande Projects. The lands have either been conveyed out of
Federal ownership or are no longer needed for project purposes. This
order also opens 0.106 acre to sale or exchange.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gilda Fitzpatrick, BLM New Mexico
State Office, 1474 Rodeo Road, Santa Fe, New Mexico 87502, 505-438-
7597.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The lands withdrawn for the Carlsbad
Reclamation Project by the Secretarial Orders dated April 12, 1916, and
May 25, 1928, are no longer needed for the Project so those two
withdrawals are no longer necessary. Those lands will not be opened to
surface entry or mining until completion of an analysis to determine if
any of the lands need special designation. The lands withdrawn for the
Rio Grande Reclamation Project by the Secretarial Order dated December
16, 1903, have been conveyed out of Federal ownership. This is a
record-clearing action only for those lands. The land withdrawn for the
Rio Grande Reclamation Project by the Bureau of Reclamation Order dated
August 27, 1953, is no longer needed for the Project, so the withdrawal
is no longer necessary and that land will be opened to sale or
exchange. Copies of the original withdrawal orders containing a legal
description of the lands involved are available from the BLM New Mexico
State Office at the address above.

hereby revoked in their entireties.
2. The following described land, which was withdrawn for the Bureau
of Reclamation's Rio Grande Project by the Bureau of Reclamation Order
