SHOSHONE, Idaho -Today the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) delivered a patent to convey ownership of 13.78 acres of public land associated with the Lincoln County solid waste transfer station to Lincoln County.
The parcel is located west of Highway 75, about a mile north of Shoshone. The action will transfer the land where the facility is located into permanent county ownership.
“This conveyance makes a lot of sense both economically and environmentally, and the BLM is pleased that we can move forward with this action," said Twin Falls District Manager Mike Courtney. “It’s a good solution for both Lincoln County and the BLM, as the county can reliably operate the transfer station well into the future."
Information about the parcel and the conveyance is available at the BLM Shoshone Field Office.
