Notice of Intent To Prepare a Management Framework Plan Amendment/Environmental Assessment (MFP/EA); Alaska

ACTION: Notice of Intent to prepare an amendment to Southcentral Planning Area Management Framework Plan (MFP) to analyze a proposal adding lands to those designated in the MFP as ``AREAS IN WHICH APPLICATIONS FOR FLPMA LEASES AND SALES WILL BE ACCEPTED.'' The plan amendment would be called ``Victory Bible Camp Amendment to the Southcentral MFP''.


SUMMARY: The Anchorage District Office (ADO), Bureau of Land Management (BLM) proposes an amendment to Southcentral Planning Area MFP dated March 3, 1983, which would allow ADO to classify approximately 129 acres as available for sale under the Federal Land Policy Management Act (FLPMA).
Affected lands are described as follows: Parcel One: Land now under Airport Lease A-053435, at Victory Bible Camp, near Mile 95 of the Glenn Highway, further described as lying within:

Seward Meridian, Alaska

T. 20 N., R. 8 E.,
Secs. 23 and 26.

Containing approximately 80 acres.

Parcel Two: Land adjacent to the United Methodist Church, at Chugiak, Alaska, further described as:

Seward Meridian, Alaska

T. 15 N., R. 1 W.,
Lot 53, Section 19.

Containing 1.42 acres.

Parcel Three: Land now under Lease AA-55607 for a parking lot adjacent to the Pioneer Peak Baptist Church along the old Glenn Highway near Bodenburg Butte, at Palmer, Alaska, further described as:

Seward Meridian, Alaska

T. 17 N., R. 2 E.,
Lot 22, Section 26.

Containing 0.94 acre.

Parcel Four: A portion of Lot 2, U.S. Survey 2625, now occupied by Jack and Nadine Smith, at Medfra, Alaska, lying within:

Kateel River Meridian, Alaska

T. 27 S., R. 22 E.,
Sec. 32.

Containing approximately 45 acres.

Parcel Five: One (1) acre of land now occupied by John and Natalie Stone, described by metes and bounds as follows:

Beginning at the witness point located on line 4-1 of U.S. Survey No. 10551, Alaska, in Sec. 32, T. 27 S., R. 22 E., Kateel River Meridian, Alaska;
Thence southwesterly approximately 132 feet on line 4-1 to establish Corner No. 1, the true point of beginning; Thence continuing southwesterly along line 4-1 approximately 198 feet to Corner No. 2;
Thence southeasterly approximately 220 feet to Corner No. 3; Thence northeasterly 198 feet to Corner No. 4; Thence northwesterly 220 feet to Corner No. 1, and the true point of beginning.

The intent of this description is to encompass the applicant's improvements and not encumber more than one (1) acre. Parcel Six: A parcel of land in the vicinity of Clam Gulch, described by metes and bounds as follows:

Beginning at \1/4\ corner (GLO Monument) of Sections 21 and 22, T. 2 N., R. 12 W., Seward Meridian, Alaska, Corner No. 1 the true point of beginning;
Thence westerly approximately 659.70 feet to Corner No. 2; Thence northerly approximately 66 feet to Corner No. 3; Thence easterly approximately 659.70 feet to Corner No. 4; Thence southerly approximately 66 feet to Corner No. 1, and the true point of beginning; containing approximately 1 acre.

The issue to be addressed in the Amendment/EA is: should these lands be classified for disposal and offered for direct sale to proponents.
The Southcentral Planning Area MFP has been reviewed and found to be inadequate to support disposal of the affected parcels, even though it did recommend opening other lands in the southcentral area to various types of settlement entry and sale.

DATES: Interested parties may submit comments regarding this plan amendment until November 30, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be sent to District Manager, Anchorage District
