Download as PDF 26040 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 85 / Wednesday, May 2, 2012 / Notices interest during the 2006 scoping period for the proposal. In addition, 11 copies of the DEIS were sent to local tribal councils who had stated an interest in the DEIS. On November 30, 2010, eight individuals from the Battle Mountain and Elko Bands of the Te-Moak Shoshone Tribe, the Duckwater and the Yomba Shoshone Tribes were handdelivered copies of the DEIS after a site visit to the proposed project site. The attending tribal members did not provide any specific individual or collective concerns related to the proposal. A news release in the local papers announcing the availability of the DEIS was published and the DEIS was posted on the BLM Nevada Web site. All comments received on the DEIS and internal BLM review were considered and incorporated as appropriate in the FEIS. Based on the proposed mitigation in the DEIS as well as applicant committed environmental protection measures, the BLM’s preferred alternative is the proposed action. The mitigation measures and the applicant committed environmental protection measures will become conditions of approval of the Project. This FEIS is abbreviated. The FEIS document includes the changes made to the DEIS, as well as copies of the comments provided during the DEIS comment period and BLM responses to those comments. To understand the FEIS one must have to have both the DEIS and the FEIS and then compare the changes. Douglas W. Furtado, District Manager, Battle Mountain.
