Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 169 / Friday, August 31, 2007 / Notices
surface coal mining operations on
Federal and non-Federal lands within
the State of Wyoming. WSPO
coordinates planning within state
agencies and facilitates collaboration
among the agencies, the Federal
government, other states, the private
sector, and the general public.
On May 2, 2005, the BLM published
a Notice of Intent (NOI) to prepare an
EIS for the Eagle Butte West coal lease
application in the Federal Register. A
notice announcing the availability of the
Draft EIS was published in the Federal
Register by the EPA on October 20,
2006. A 60-day comment period on the
Draft EIS commenced with publication
of the EPA’s notice of availability and
ended on December 19, 2006. The BLM
published a Notice of Availability and
Notice of Public Hearing in the Federal
Register on October 20, 2006. The
BLM’s Federal Register notice
announced the date and time of a public
hearing, which was held on November
14, 2006, in Gillette, Wyoming. The
purpose of the hearing was to solicit
comments on the DEIS, fair market
value, and the maximum economic
recovery of the Federal coal. During the
DEIS comment period, the BLM
received eight written comments, which
are included, with BLM’s responses, in
an appendix to the FEIS.
The FEIS analyzes leasing the abovedescribed tract as applied for as a
separate Proposed Action. Under this
alternative, a competitive sale would be
held and a lease issued for Federal coal
in the tract as it was applied for. As part
of the coal leasing process, the BLM
identified a different tract configuration
that would potentially avoid bypassing
coal or prompt competitive interest in
the unleased Federal coal in this area.
The tract configuration that the BLM has
identified is described and analyzed as
a separate alternative in the FEIS. Under
this alternative, a competitive sale
would be held and a lease issued for
Federal coal lands included in a tract
modified by the BLM. The FEIS also
analyzes the alternative of rejecting the
application to lease Federal coal as the
No Action Alternative. The Proposed
Action and Alternatives being
considered in the FEIS are in
conformance with the ‘‘Approved
Resource Management Plan for Public
Lands Administered by the Bureau of
Land Management Buffalo Field Office.’’
(April 2001).
A Record of Decision (ROD) will be
prepared after the close of the 30-day
review period for the FEIS. Comments
