SUMMARY: Pursuant to 36 CFR 51.23,
public notice is hereby given that the
National Park Service proposes to
extend the following expiring
concession contract for a period of up to
1 year, or until such time as a new
contract is executed, whichever occurs

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The listed

such interruption. This extension will
allow the National Park Service to
complete and issue a prospectus leading
to the competitive selection of a
concessioner for a new long-term
concession contract covering this
operation.

Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA), 42 U.S.C. 4332 and Council on
Environmental Quality regulation 40
CFR 1506.6, that the U.S. Department of
the Interior, National Park Service
(NPS), is preparing an EIS for an

the resulting environmental problems.

setting park-specific operating
standards.

operators, including guidance on the
regulatory process for bringing
operations into compliance with

natural resource agencies to better
manage and enforce oil and gas
operations according to State standards.
• Evaluate the potential for NEPA
streamlining for plugging and
reclaiming orphaned or exhausted oil
and gas operations.
• Evaluate public use of oil and gas
access roads.
• Address visitor safety issues related
to oil and gas operations.
• Provide for a range of reasonable
alternatives for managing oil and gas
operations, and assess potential impacts
on park resoures such as threatened and
endangered species, soils, wetlands,
wildlife, cultural resources, and public
safety, while allowing for the exercise of
oil and gas rights.
• Provide the framework to achieve
sound decision-making and resource
protection at BISO and OBRI for the
next 15 to 20 years.
A scoping brochure will be available
summarizing the purpose, need and
objectives of the O&GMP/EIS. Copies of
that information may be obtained by
