SUMMARY: Minerals Management Service
(MMS), in accordance with Federal
Regulations that implement the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA),
announces the availability of NEPArelated Site-Specific Environmental
Assessments (SEA) and Findings of No
Significant Impact (FONSI), prepared by
MMS for the following oil-, gas-, and
mineral-related activities proposed on
the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic OCS.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Public Information Unit, Information
Services Section at the number below.
Minerals Management Service, Gulf of
Mexico OCS Region, Attention: Public

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 71 / Wednesday, April 15, 2009 / Notices
Information Office (MS 5034), 1201
Elmwood Park Boulevard, Room 114,
New Orleans, Louisiana 70123–2394, or
by calling 1–800–200–GULF.
MMS
prepares SEAs and FONSIs for
proposals that relate to exploration,
development, production, and transport
of oil, gas, and mineral resources on the
Federal OCS. These SEAs examine the
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
potential environmental effects of
activities described in the proposals and
present MMS conclusions regarding the
significance of those effects.
Environmental Assessments are used as
a basis for determining whether or not
approval of the proposals constitutes
major Federal actions that significantly
affect the quality of the human
environment in the sense of NEPA
Section 102(2)(C). A FONSI is prepared
in those instances where MMS finds
that approval will not result in
significant effects on the quality of the
human environment. The FONSI briefly
presents the basis for that finding and
includes a summary or copy of the SEA.
This notice constitutes the public
notice of availability of environmental
documents required under the NEPA
Regulations.

for the General Management Plan for
Aztec Ruins National Monument, in
favor of an Environmental Assessment
(EA).

SUMMARY: The National Park Service
(NPS) is terminating preparation of an
EIS for the General Management Plan
for Aztec Ruins National Monument,
New Mexico. A Notice of Intent to
prepare an EIS for the Aztec Ruins
National Monument General
Management Plan was published in the
Federal Register on October 8, 2003 (68
FR 58130), and followed by a scoping
newsletter. The NPS has since
determined that an EA rather than an
EIS is the appropriate level of
environmental documentation for the
plan.
VerDate Nov<24>2008

Jkt 217001
The
General Management Plan will establish
the overall management direction for
the next 15 to 20 years. Five scoping
information meetings were conducted in
October 2003 with American Indian
tribes and the general public at the park,
and in the cities of Aztec, Santa Fe,
Albuquerque, and Gallup, New Mexico.
Initial scoping did not result in
significant impacts being identified by
the public. Additionally, the
preliminary analysis of the alternatives
does not indicate that significant
impacts will result from implementation
of any of the alternatives. The NPS
planning team has developed three
alternatives, including the No Action
Alternative (1)—Continuation of
Existing Conditions, and two action
alternatives. All alternatives respond in
various degrees to the ideas presented
during scoping. The two action
alternatives (2 and 3) would expand
park-related functions within the
boundary, would focus preservation
activities within the boundary on
resources throughout the monument,
and would increase visitor
understanding and enjoyment by
expanding interpretation to include
more resources and research within the
monument. The Proposed Action
(Alternative 3) would place major
emphasis on partnerships, civic
engagement, and collaborative
management opportunities to address
issues within the park boundary, and
would promote collaboration and
partnerships to help preserve ruins
throughout the region. These
alternatives will be expanded upon and
refined through the planning process.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
DATES: The NPS will notify the public
by mail, Web site, and other means, of
public review periods and meetings
associated with the Draft GMP/EA. All
public review and other written public
information will be made available

AGENCY: Minerals Management Service, Interior.
ACTION: Notice of the availability of environmental documents prepared
for OCS mineral proposals by the Gulf of Mexico OCS region.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Minerals Management Service (MMS), in accordance with Federal
Regulations that implement the National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA), announces the availability of NEPA-related Site-Specific
Environmental Assessments (SEA) and Findings of No Significant Impact
(FONSI), prepared by MMS for the following oil-, gas-, and mineral-
related activities proposed on the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic OCS.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Public Information Unit, Information

New Orleans, Louisiana 70123-2394, or by calling 1-800-200-GULF.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: MMS prepares SEAs and FONSIs for proposals
that relate to exploration, development, production, and transport of
oil, gas, and mineral resources on the Federal OCS. These SEAs examine
the potential environmental effects of activities described in the
proposals and present MMS conclusions regarding the significance of
those effects. Environmental Assessments are used as a basis for
determining whether or not approval of the proposals constitutes major
Federal actions that significantly affect the quality of the human
environment in the sense of NEPA Section 102(2)(C). A FONSI is prepared
in those instances where MMS finds that approval will not result in
significant effects on the quality of the human environment. The FONSI
briefly presents the basis for that finding and includes a summary or
copy of the SEA.
This notice constitutes the public notice of availability of
environmental documents required under the NEPA Regulations.
