SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Sithe
Global Power, LLC, a privately held,
´
independent power company, and Dine
Power Authority, an enterprise of the
Navajo Nation established by the Navajo
Nation Council to promote the
development of energy resources, have
entered into a joint agreement to
develop a coal-fired electric powergenerating plant on a 600-acre site
approximately 30 miles southwest of
Farmington, New Mexico. Coal to
support the long-term production of
electricity may be mined from the
adjacent BHP Navajo Coal Company
lease area, hence the Office of Surface
Mining Reclamation and Enforcement
would approve any necessary permits
for the existing lessee to mine additional
areas of the coal lease and construct a
coal-handling facility for delivery of
coal to the proposed electric powergenerating plant.
Resources and issues so far identified
for analysis in the EIS include air,
geology, soils, water, vegetation,
wildlife, special status species, land use,
access, visual resources, noise, social
and economic conditions,
environmental justice, hazardous
materials, and cultural and
paleontological resources. Analyses will
address requirements of the Clean Water
Act, Clean Air Act, Endangered Species
Act, National Historic Preservation Act,
Resource Conservation and Recovery
Act, Comprehensive Environmental
Response Compensation and Liability
Act, Surface Mining Control and
Reclamation Act, and others, as needed.
Alternatives to be analyzed include, at
a minimum, the proposed action and no
action. The range of issues and
alternatives to be addressed may be
expanded based on comments received
during the scoping process.
Public Comment Availability
Comments, including names and
addresses of respondents, will be
available for public review at the
mailing address shown in the
ADDRESSES section, during regular
business hours, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.,
