do so. All submissions from
organizations and businesses, or from
individuals identifying themselves as
representatives or officials of
organizations or businesses, will be
available for public inspection in their
entirety.
A draft EIS will be prepared for public
review and comment. The comment
period on the draft EIS will be 45 days
from the date the Environmental
Protection Agency publishes the notice
of availability in the Federal Register. It
is very important that those interested
in this proposed action participate by
the close of the 45-day comment period
so that substantive comments and
objections are made available to the
Bureau of Land Management at a time
when it can meaningfully consider them
and respond to them in the final EIS.
To assist the agencies in identifying
and considering issues and concerns on
the proposed action, comments on the
draft EIS should be as specific as
possible. It is also helpful if comments
refer to specific pages or chapters of the
draft statement. Comments may also
address the adequacy of the draft EIS or
the merits of the alternatives formulated
and discussed in the statement.
Reviewers may wish to refer to the
Council on Environmental Quality
Regulations for implementing the
procedural provisions of the National
Environmental Policy Act at 40 CFR
1503.3 in addressing these points.
The lead agencies believe, at this early
stage, it is important to give reviewers
notice of several court rulings related to
public participation in the
environmental review process. First,
reviewers of draft EISs must structure
their participation in the environmental
review of the proposal so that it is
meaningful and alerts an agency to the
reviewer’s position and contentions.
Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corp. v.
NRDC, 435 U.S. 519, 553 (1978). Also,
environmental objections that could be
raised at the draft EIS stage but that are
not raised until after completion of the
final EIS may be waived or disregarded
by the courts. City of Angoon v. Hodel,
803 F.2d 1016, 1022 (9th Cir. 1986); and
Wisconsin Heritages, Inc. v. Harris, 490
F. Supp. 1334, 1338 (E.D. Wis. 1980).
