Geological Survey (USGS) National
Geospatial Program (NGP) project that
encourages citizen participation in
volunteer map data collection activities.
TNMCorps uses crowdsourcing—new
technologies and internet services to
georeference and update structure
points and related data and share this
information with others on map-based
internet platforms—to produce
volunteered geographic information
(VGI). People participating in the
crowdsourcing are considered part of
the TNMCorps.
In general, the National Structures
Dataset (NSD) has been populated with
the best available national data. This
data has been exposed for initial
improvement by TNMCorps volunteers
via the online Map Editor (the
instrument). In addition, the data goes
through a tiered-editing process, which
includes peer review and advanced
editors. At each stage the data is passed
through an automatic ‘‘magic filter’’ to
look for data issues before being
submitted into the NSD. In addition,
data goes through sampling for quality
assurance procedures.
Data within the NSD is available to
the USGS as well as to the public at no
cost via The National Map and US
Topo.
Data quality studies in 2012, 2014,
and 2018 showed that the volunteers’
actions were accurate and exceeded
USGS quality standards. Volunteercollected data showed an improvement
in both location and attribute accuracy
for existing data points. Completeness,
or the extent to which all appropriate
features were identified and recorded,
was also improved.
Title of Collection: The National Map
Corps—Volunteered Geographic
Information Project.
OMB Control Number: 1028–0111.

in the United States who are deaf,
deafblind, hard of hearing, or have a

Individuals outside the United States
should use the relay services offered
within their country to make
international calls to the point-ofcontact in the United States. You will
receive a reply during normal business
hours.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
following public lands have been
examined and found suitable for sale in
accordance with criteria established in
Section 203 of FLPMA:
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Sixth Principal Meridian, Wyoming
T. 21 N., R. 101 W., sec. 36, E1/2NE1/4,
W1/2SW1/4NE1/4SW1/4, SW1/4NW1/
4NW1/4SW1/4, S1/2NW1/4SW1/4, S1/
2SW1/4, E1/2SE1/4, SW1/4SE1/4.
The area described contains 307.5
acres, according to the official plat of
survey of the said land on file with the
BLM.
The sale of the parcel is in
conformance with the BLM Rock
Springs Field Office approved Green
River Resource Management Plan
(August 8, 1997), which identifies the
parcel as suitable for disposal in
Appendix 8–1.
A parcel-specific Environmental
Assessment (EA) numbered DOI–BLM–
WY–D040–2022–0013–EA has been
conducted in connection with this sale.
A copy of the EA is available online at:
https://eplanning.blm.gov/eplanning-ui/
project/2016696/510.
Regulations at 43 CFR 2711.3–3(a)
allow the direct sale of public lands
without competition when a
competitive sale is not appropriate and
the public interest would best be served
by a direct sale. In this case, a
competitive sale is not appropriate
because the subject lands contain BLM
authorized rights-of-way and
improvements that directly support the
Jim Bridger Power Plant owned by
PacifiCorp, rendering the land unusable
by the public.
Upon publication of this notice in the
Federal Register, the public lands
described above will be segregated from
all forms of appropriation under the
public land laws, including the mining
laws, except for the sale provisions of
FLPMA.
The temporary segregation will
terminate upon: (1) issuance of a
conveyance document, (2) publication
