AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice of realty action.

SUMMARY: This notice terminates a Small Tract Classification and opens certain lands near Port Moller, Alaska, that were classified for small tract lease under the Small Tract Act of June 1, 1938 (52 Stat. 609) as amended. This action would allow the land to be conveyed to the State of Alaska if such land is otherwise available.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kathy A. Stubbs, Anchorage Field Office, 6881 Abbott Loop Road, Anchorage, Alaska 99507; telephone number 907-267-1284.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Classification Order No. 386-NC dated June 1, 1961, segregated the lands from all forms of appropriation under the public land laws, including location under the mining laws, except as to application under the mineral leasing laws and the Small Tract Act. The Small Tract Act was repealed by section 702 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of October 21, 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701). Accordingly the classification is not longer applicable.
