Cedar Gulch Mine, Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest, Josephine County, OR
The Forest Service will prepare a supplemental environmental impact statement (SEIS), to examine surface resource impacts connected with extracting gold from placer deposits within a 4.25-acre (approx.) area, in response to a mining claimant's proposed plan of operations. A Notice of Intent (NOI) was first published for this proposal under the name of Tracy Placer Mine, on April 21, 2006, Volume 71, No. 77, pages 20640-20642. A Notice of Availability was published for the DEIS on March 20, 2009, but due to unforeseen circumstances, the project was put on hold before a comment period was completed. The Forest Service is now preparing a SEIS to address changed conditions and minor changes to the alternatives since the DEIS was first made available. The name of the project is hereby changed to Cedar Gulch Mine to reflect the actual name of the placer claim, rather than the claim owner's name. This is in keeping with Forest Service policy. Proposed mining would occur along the south bank of Sucker Creek, about 11 miles southeast of Cave Junction, Oregon. The purpose for preparing this SEIS is to forecast and disclose environmental consequences to surface resources, resulting from road use and mine operations, as well as to ascertain reasonable operational terms and conditions needed during development of locatable mineral resources of the United States (as authorized by the Mining Law of 1872, as amended).
