ACTION: Notice of Intent (NOI) to prepare
a programmatic environmental impact
statement (EIS) and scoping meetings.

2. Purpose of Notice of Intent
Pursuant to the regulations
implementing the procedural provisions
of the NEPA, the Minerals Management
Service (MMS) is announcing its intent
to prepare a programmatic EIS for the
National Offshore Alternate EnergyRelated Use (AERU) Program and Rule
as authorized by the Energy Policy Act
of 2005. The NOI also serves to
announce the scoping process for this
programmatic EIS. Throughout the
scoping process, Federal, State, and
local government agencies, and other
interested parties have the opportunity
to advise MMS in determining the
significant issues, alternatives, and
mitigation measures to be considered for
analysis in the programmatic EIS. The
programmatic EIS analysis will focus on
the potential environmental effects of
implementing the AERU program, and
associated rulemaking.
3. Cooperating Agency
The MMS invites other Federal
agencies and State, tribal, and local
governments to consider becoming
cooperating agencies in the preparation
of the programmatic EIS. We invite
qualified government entities to inquire
about cooperating agency status for the
EIS. Following the guidelines from the
Council of Environmental Quality
(CEQ), qualified agencies and
governments are those with
’’jurisdiction by law or special
expertise.’’ Potential cooperating
agencies should consider their authority
PO 00000
Frm 00111
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

and capacity to assume the
responsibilities of a cooperating agency
and to remember that an agency’s role
in the environmental analysis neither
enlarges nor diminishes the final
decision making authority of any other
agency involved in the NEPA process.
Upon request, the 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. The MMS
anticipates this summary will form the
basis for understanding between the
MMS and each cooperating agency.
Agencies 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:
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
provide financial assistance to
cooperating agencies. Even if an
organization is not a cooperating
agency, opportunities will exist to
provide information and comments to
MMS during the normal public input
phases of the NEPA/EIS process. If
further information about cooperating
agencies is needed, please contact Mr.
James F. Bennett at (703) 787–1660.
4. Comments
Federal, State, tribal, local
government agencies, and other
interested parties are requested to
provide comments on the scope of the
programmatic EIS, significant issues
that should be addressed, and
alternatives that should be considered
in one of the following three ways:
1. Electronically, using the online
comment form available on the project
Web site: ocsenergy.anl.gov. This is the
preferred method for commenting.
2. In written form, mailed or delivered
to MMS Renewable Energy and
Alternate Use Programmatic EIS
Scoping, Argonne National Laboratory,
9700 S. Cass Avenue, Argonne, IL
60439.
3. In person, at public scoping
meetings to be held in multiple
locations in May and June, 2006 (see
below).
