This land has been used in trespass by KerrMcGee Chemical Corp. to dispose of boiler ash and is no longer required for Federal purposes.

The proposed action is consistent with the objectives, goals, and decisions of the West Mojave Plan.

The EA and FONSI are available for public review and comment in the Ridgecrest Field Office. A copy may be requested from Janet Eubanks, Ridgecrest Realty Specialist at (951) 697–5376.
