Show J IHE SAN JUAN RECORE PAGE EIGHT Mining Confab - (continued from page one) lowed by small tract classification of the land as an actual withdrawal of the land. Not uncommonly, an application for withdrawal has the force and effect of a withdrawal during pendency of the application for the withdrawal. Under 43 CFR 295.9 an application for a withdrawal, made .under Executive Order No. 10355 of May 26, 1952, when noted on the serial register and official plat and tract books in the appropriate land office, temporarily segregates such lands from settlement, location, sale, selection, entry, lease, and other forms of disposal under the public land laws, including the mining and the mineral leasing laws, to the extent that the withdrawal or reservation applied for, if effected, would prevent such form of disposal. The aforementioned withdraw- als and applications therefor stem from authority delegated to the Secretary of the Interior from the President, under Executive Order 10355. However, the Reclamation Act of June 17, 1902 vests directly in the Secretary of the Interior the authority to make withdrawals for reclamation purposes. What, then, is the effect of posting on the land office records of an application for withdrawal for reclamation purposes? While I am unaware of any decided case on this precise question, the Solicitor has held that such an application does not have any segregative effect. A reclamation withdrawal does not become effective to preclude the appropriation of the land as to persons not having actual knowledge of the withdrawal until copies of the document have been filed with the Federal Register and made available for public inspection in accordance with 44 U.S.C. 307. First form reclamation withdrawals under the Act of June 17, 1902, preclude mining locations. However, the Secretary of the Interior may, under the act of April 25, 1932 and the regulation, 43 CFR 185.36 open such lands to location under such terms as he may deem appropriate. Land withdrawn under, the second form of reclamation are not thereby precluded appropriation. . In the Instructions of June 6, from-minera- CERTIFIED section.

It should be noted that if the parties remain in possession for a period equivalent to the State statute of limitations, absent adverse claims, and have made a discovery after the restoration of the land, such action would be sufficient to permit a patent to issue, all else being regular.

As a practical matter, all reclamation withdrawals within the past 20 years have been made under the first form. Withdrawals for power site purposes made prior to the act of June 25, 1910, were effective to preclude mining locations on the land. The 1910 act stated in part that lands withdrawn under its provisions shall at all times be open to exploration, discovery, occupation and purchase under the mining laws of the United States, so far as the same apply to minerals other than coal, oil, gas and phosphates. By the act of August 24, 1912 "metalliferous minerals" were substituted for the named minerals. During the period from August 24, 1912 to the enactment of section 24 of the Federal Power Act reof June 10, 1920, power-sitserves established under the 1910 act as amended by the 1912 act were not thereby closed to metalliferous mining locations. Howlocations ever, made after the 1912 act and prior to June 10, 1920 may be permitted to go to patent if the patent applicant consents to take the patent subject to section 24 of the Federal Power Act, in accordance with the proviso to that Thursday, HARDWARE CONTRACTING PHONE 2578 Town Sales, Service on All Types of Electrical Installations TV-Rad- io EVERYTHING FOR THE BUILDER UTAH BLANDING, Street Address ELECTRICAL Phone M Monticello, State Repair; Box 23 Utah .
