mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 175 / Friday, September 9, 2011 / Notices
have filed the DEIS with the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
for publication of their notice of
availability in the Federal Register. The
EPA notice officially starts the 45-day
review period for this document. It is
the goal of the USACE to have this
notice published on the same date as the
EPA notice. However, if that does not
occur, the date of the EPA notice will
determine the closing date for
comments on the DEIS.
Scoping: A Scoping Meeting was held
in Abita Springs, Louisiana, on January
22, 2009 to solicit input from interested
agencies and the public regarding the
range of issues and alternatives that
should be considered in the EIS. A
Public notice was posted on the
District’s webpage and local
newspapers, and mailed to current
stakeholder lists with notification of the
public meetings and requesting input
and comments on issues that should be
addressed in the DEIS.
A public hearing for this DEIS will be
held on September 28, 2011 from 6 to
8:30 p.m. in Abita Springs, Louisiana, at
the Abita Springs Town Hall located on
22161 Level Street. The purpose of this
public hearing is to provide the public
the opportunity to comment, either
orally or in writing, on the DEIS.
Notification of the hearing will be
announced following the same format as
the Scoping Meetings announcements.
The DEIS is available online on the
New Orleans District Web site at https://

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPACT, Pub.
L. 109–58) directed DOE to expand the
SPR from its current 727 million-barrel
capacity to 1 billion barrels. To fulfill
the requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) for
this expansion project, DOE prepared an
environmental impact statement for the
Site Selection for the Expansion of the
Strategic Petroleum Reserve (DOE/EIS–
0385). In a Record of Decision (ROD) (72
FR 7964; February 22, 2007), DOE
announced its selection of Richton,
Mississippi, as the location of a new
SPR facility as part of the expansion
project.
After selecting the Richton site, DOE
engaged in further consultations with
the Mississippi Department of
Environmental Quality, U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, and other
governmental entities. As a result of
those consultations, and to reduce
project impacts, DOE proposed
alternative sites from those announced
in the ROD for some of the ancillary
facilities associated with the Richton
site: the raw water intake structure, oil
terminal, and brine diffuser. DOE
determined that alternative locations for
those ancillary facilities would present
substantial changes to the proposal as
analyzed in DOE/EIS–0385 that would
be relevant to environmental concerns.
DOE published a Notice of Intent to
prepare an SEIS to analyze the impacts
of potential new locations for the
ancillary facilities associated with the
Richton site (73 FR 11895; March 5,
2008) and conducted public scoping.
Dated: September 6, 2011.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Cancellation of Supplemental
Environmental Impact Statement for
Ancillary Facilities for the Richton Site
of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve
Department of Energy.
ACTION: Notice of Cancellation.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE) announces the
cancellation of a supplemental
environmental impact statement (SEIS)
for certain facilities associated with the
2007 selection of Richton, Mississippi,
as the location of a new storage site for
expanding the Strategic Petroleum
Reserve (SPR). In April 2011, Congress
rescinded all funding for the SPR
expansion project.

On February 1, 2010, the President
submitted a budget request to Congress
for Fiscal Year (FY) 2011 that included
no new funding to continue SPR
expansion efforts and proposed
cancellation of previously appropriated
expansion funds. In April 2011,
Congress passed, and the President
signed, the Department of Defense and
Full-Year Continuing Appropriations
Act, 2011 (Pub. L. 112–10). Sections
1440 and 1464 of that Act rescinded all
unspent balances of prior year funds
that had been appropriated for SPR
expansion. The President’s FY 2012
budget includes no funds for SPR
expansion.
With prior appropriated funds
rescinded, and no new funds proposed,
the SPR expansion project is effectively
terminated. DOE is therefore cancelling
the preparation of the SEIS for the
ancillary facilities of the SPR expansion
project at the Richton Site (DOE/EIS–
0385–S1).
Issued in Washington, DC, on September 1,
2011.
