The preferred alternative attempts to accomplish the above while achieving consistency between Forest Service, Arizona State Land Department, Arizona Game and Fish Department, the BLM, and other land managing agencies within the boundaries of both planning areas. The range of alternatives in this draft evaluates planning decisions brought forward from the current BLM planning documents, including the Lower Gila North Management Framework Plan and the Phoenix Resource Management Plan. The preferred alternative identifies four potential Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC): Tule Creek ACEC, 640 acres to protect wildlife, riparian, and cultural resources; Vulture Mountain ACEC, 6,120 acres to protect high value raptor nesting habitat; Black Butte Outstanding Natural Area (ONA) ACEC, 8,260 acres to protect high value raptor nesting sites, rare cultural resources, and scenic values; and Harquahala Mountains ONA ACEC, 74,950 acres to protect unique biological assemblages, high value cultural resources, and outstanding scenic and primitive landscapes. The following types of use limitations would generally apply: (1) Except for Tule Creek, areas would be closed to mineral material disposal but open to other types of mineral development. Tule Creek would be withdrawn from all mineral development; (2) recreation uses would generally be dispersed and undeveloped and may be limited by season or location if ACEC values are threatened; (3) motorized and mechanized travel would be limited to designated routes; (4) vehicle routes that threaten ACEC values would be mitigated or closed; (5) visual resources would be allocated to VRM Class II. For detailed information, see the Special Area Designations sections of Chapter 2. Records of Decision will be prepared by the BLM for the Agua Fria National Monument Resource Management Plan and the Bradshaw-Harquahala Resource Management Plan in accordance with planning regulations 43 CFR part 1610 and NEPA at 40 CFR part 1502. The Agua Fria National Monument was established by Presidential Proclamation 7263 in January 2000. The Agua Fria National Monument Proclamation of 2000 affects only Federal lands and Federal interests located within the established boundaries.

PacifiCorp is a non-operating licensee of the Trojan ISFSI, and will continue to hold the license. The request was in connection with the sale of PacifiCorp, which will become an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of MEHC. The supplemental letter cited above did not expand the scope of the application beyond that noticed in the Federal Register on July 27, 2005 (70 FR 43461). The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) 10 CFR Part 50 license for the Trojan Nuclear Plant (License No. NPF–1) was terminated on May 23, 2005, after completion of the radiological decommissioning of the nuclear plant. The Trojan ISFSI holds spent fuel from the former Trojan Nuclear Plant. PacifiCorp is a wholly owned subsidiary of PacifiCorp Holdings, Inc. (PHI), which in turn is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Scottish Power, plc. PacifiCorp will be sold to PPW, LLC, a Delaware limited liability corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of MEHC. The name of the MEHC subsidiary that will acquire PacifiCorp was changed from NWQ Holdings, LLC to PPW Holdings, LLC. PacifiCorp operates an electric utility in six western states of the United States, serving approximately 1.6 million retail customers with annual revenues of approximately $3 billion per year. PacifiCorp will remain an electric utility after the sale to MEHC. MEHC, a global electric and natural gas utility operating in the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Philippines, serves approximately 4.4 million electric customers and 680,000 natural gas customers. Its annual operating revenue is approximately $6.5 billion. MEHC will purchase all the outstanding shares of PacifiCorp from PHI for a value of approximately $9.4 billion, consisting of approximately $5.1 billion in cash and approximately $4.3 billion in net debt and preferred stock which will remain outstanding at PacifiCorp. The Trojan ISFSI is jointly owned by three licensees: Portland General Electric Company (PGE) (67.5%); Eugene Water & Electric Board (30%); and PacifiCorp (2.5%). PGE has always been the sole operator of the Trojan ISFSI and will remain the sole operator. The Eugene Water & Electric Board and PacifiCorp are non-operating licensees. PacifiCorp has no right of access to the E:\FR\FM\06JAN1.SGM 06JAN1
