This Order withdraws approximately 336,404.42 acres of public lands surrounding Chaco Culture National Historical Park from location and entry under the United States mining laws and from leasing under the mineral leasing laws, but not the mineral materials laws, subject to valid existing rights. The purpose of this withdrawal is to protect these public lands and the greater connected landscape with a rich Puebloan, Tribal Nation, and cultural legacy in the New Mexico counties of San Juan, Sandoval, and McKinley for a period of 20 years.
