Environmental Coordinator, telephone:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FEIS
analyzes the environmental
consequences of a legislated land
conveyance to the Westside Irrigation
District (WID), Worland, Wyoming.
Public Law 106–485 (Nov. 9, 2000; 114
Stat. 2199) directs the Secretary of the
Interior, acting through the BLM, to
convey to WID all right, title and
interest, excluding mineral interest, in
certain Federal land in Washakie and
Big Horn Counties, Wyoming, upon
completion of an environmental
analysis under the NEPA and mitigation
of identified adverse effects of the land
transfer. The project area comprises
approximately 16,500 acres, in
Townships 48 N. and 49 N.; Ranges 92
W., 921⁄2; W., and 93 W. The southern
end of the project area is located
approximately 5 miles northwest of
Worland, Wyoming. The law specifies
that acreage may be added to or
subtracted from the project area to
satisfy mitigation as required in the
FEIS and its Record of Decision (ROD).
The FEIS analyzes and discloses
environmental consequences of four
alternatives:
• The No Action Alternative—
analyzed for a baseline comparison
although it is not an option under
public law.
• Alternative 1—the legislated
proposed action conveying
approximately 16,500 acres.
• Alternative 2—under which only
lands suitable for irrigation and needed
for infrastructure would be conveyed;
approximately 11,500 acres.
• Alternative 3—under which only
lands suitable for irrigation and needed

for infrastructure, and which exclude
certain known eligible cultural sites,
would be conveyed; approximately
9,740 acres. This alternative would also
widen a wildlife migration corridor to
the Bighorn River and reduce impacts to
winter habitat.
Alternative 3 is the BLM’s preferred
alternative.
The law places no restrictions on the
eventual uses or disposal of the land,
and the BLM would exercise no
regulatory control after the transfer. The
WID has stated it will offer the land for
sale for agricultural purposes.
The law further specifies that
proceeds from the conveyance shall be
deposited in a special account in the
Treasury of the United States and shall
be available to the Secretary of the
Interior, without a further act of
appropriation, for the acquisition of
land, and interests in land, in the
Worland District (now Worland Field
Office), in Wyoming, such that the
acquired lands will benefit public
recreation, public access, fish and
wildlife habitat, or cultural resources.
On February 22, 2005, the BLM
published in the Federal Register a
Notice of Intent to prepare an EIS under
the NEPA. On January 11, 2008, the
BLM published in the Federal Register
a Notice of Availability (NOA) of the
Draft EIS (DEIS) for the Westside Land
Conveyance Project.
The State of Wyoming Water
Development Commission (WWDC) is a
co-lead agency as provided in 40 Code
of Federal Regulations 1500–1580. The
WWDC will use the FEIS and ROD in
support of subsequent funding decisions
should the irrigation district apply for
water supply development assistance.
Cooperating agencies in the preparation
of the FEIS include Washakie and Big
Horn Counties.
A ROD will be prepared after the
close of the 30-day review period for the
FEIS. Comments on the DEIS received
from the public and internal BLM
review were considered and
incorporated as appropriate into the
FEIS.
Authority: 40 CFR 1506.6 and 1506.10.

Notice.
Notice is hereby given,
pursuant to 25 CFR 514.1(a)(3), that the
National Indian Gaming Commission
has adopted preliminary annual fee
rates of 0.00% for tier 1 and 0.074%
(.00074) for tier 2 for calendar year
2011. These rates shall apply to all
assessable gross revenues from each
gaming operation under the jurisdiction
of the Commission. If a Tribe has a
certificate of self-regulation under 25
CFR part 518, the preliminary fee rate
on class II revenues for calendar year

The
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA)
established the National Indian Gaming
Commission which is charged with,
among other things, regulating gaming
on Indian lands.
The regulations of the Commission
(25 CFR part 514), as amended, provide
for a system of fee assessment and
payment that is self-administered by
gaming operations. Pursuant to those
regulations, the Commission is required
to adopt and communicate assessment
rates; the gaming operations are
required to apply those rates to their
revenues, compute the fees to be paid,
report the revenues, and remit the fees
to the Commission on a semi-annual
basis.
The regulations of the Commission
and the preliminary rate being adopted
today are effective for calendar year
2011. Therefore, all gaming operations
within the jurisdiction of the
Commission are required to self
administer the provisions of these
regulations, and report and pay any fees
that are due to the Commission by June
30, 2011.
