Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 177 / Wednesday, September 14, 2005 / Notices
making authority of any other agency
involved in the NEPA process. Upon
request, MMS will provide potential
cooperating agencies with a written
summary of ground rules for
cooperating agencies, including time
schedules and critical action dates,
milestones, responsibilities, scope and
detail of cooperating agencies’
contributions, and availability of predecisional information. MMS
anticipates this summary will form the
basis for a Memorandum of
Understanding between the MMS and
each cooperating agency. You should
also consider the ‘‘Factors for
Determining Cooperating Agency
Status’’ in Attachment 1 to CEQ’s
January 30, 2002, Memorandum for the
Heads of Federal Agencies on
Cooperating Agencies in Implementing
the Procedural Requirements of The
National Environmental Policy Act. A
copy of this document is available at:
(https://ceq.eh.doe.gov/nepa/regs/
cooperating/
cooperatingagenciesmemorandum.html)
and (https://ceq.eh.doe.gov/nepa/regs/
cooperating/
cooperatingagencymemofactors.html).
The MMS, as the lead agency, will not
be providing financial assistance to
cooperating agencies. Even if your
organization is not a cooperating
agency, you will continue to have
opportunities to provide information
and comments to MMS during the
normal public input phases of the
NEPA/EIS process. MMS will also
consult with Tribal governments on a
Government-to-Government basis. If you
would like further information about
cooperating agencies, please contact Mr.
Paul Stang, Regional Supervisor,
Leasing and Environment, at the address
noted above or by phone at (907) 334–
5230.
5. Existing Information
The MMS has acquired a substantial
amount of information, including that
gained through the use of traditional
knowledge, on the issues and concerns
related to oil and gas leasing in the
Chukchi Sea. Much of this information
has been developed as a result of past
lease sales and Environmental Impact
Statements in the Chukchi Sea. In
addition, an extensive environmental,
social, and economic studies program
has been underway in this area since
1975 in Alaska. The emphasis has been
on geologic mapping, environmental
characterization of biologically-sensitive
habitats, endangered whales and marine
mammals, physical oceanography,
ocean-circulation modeling, and
ecological and socio-cultural effects of
oil and gas activities.
