SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Publication of this notice segregates the

months from the date of this publication, whichever occurs first.
    The lease, when issued, will be subject to the following terms:
    1. Provisions of the Recreation and Public Purposes Act and to all 
applicable regulations of the Secretary of the Interior.
    2. Provisions of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 
(RCRA) as amended, 42 U.S.C. 6901-6987 and the Comprehensive 
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) 
as amended, 42 U.S.C. 9601 and all applicable regulations.
    3. Provisions of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
    4. Provisions that the lease be operated in compliance with the 
approved Development Plan.
    The patent, when issued, will be subject to the following terms:
    1. Reservation to the United States of a right-of-way for ditches 
and canals in accordance with 43 U.S.C. 945.
    2. Reservation to the United States of coal.
    3. All valid existing rights, e.g. rights-of-way and leases of record.
    4. Provisions that if the patentee or its successor attempts to 
transfer title to or control over the land to another or the land is 
devoted to a use other than that for which the land was conveyed, 
without the consent of the Secretary of the Interior or his delegate, 
or prohibits or restricts, directly or indirectly, or permits it 
agents, employees, contractors, or subcontractors, including without 
limitation, lessees, sublessees and permittees, to prohibit or 
restrict, directly or indirectly, the use of any part of the patented 
lands or any of the facilities whereon by any person because of such 
person's race, creed, color, or national origin, title shall revert to 
the United States.
    The lands are not needed for Federal purposes. Leasing and later 
patenting is consistent with current Bureau of Land Management policies 
and land use planning. The proposal serves the public interest since it 
would provide a church, related buildings, and recreation facilities 
that would meet the needs of the surrounding population.
