Subject to valid existing rights, this order withdraws 103.92 acres of Bureau of Land Management-administered public lands in Douglas County, Oregon from location and entry under the United States mining laws, but not from leasing under the mineral and geothermal leasing laws, for a period of 20 years to protect the unique recreational values at three public recreation sites. This Public Land Order (PLO) would also withdraw an additional 38.5 acres of non-Federal lands and an additional 21.20 acres of non-Federal subsurface mineral interests in the same manner described in the PLO, should the United States acquire such lands or interests in land in the future.


The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land located primarily in 12 western states, including Alaska, on behalf of the American people. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. Our mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of America’s public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.
