Plan to cede large Colorado lands to Utes raises concerns
A long unpublished federal notice proposes withdrawing all mineral rights from public lands west of the 107th meridian in Colorado and south of the 40th meridian. The 120 by 225 mile area includes many counties and would halt homesteading mining and oil exploration pending Ute home rule decisions. The order, tied to a 1934 act, is described as temporary as tribes decide futures.
