SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The BLM developed this Draft EIS to address a NEPA defect identified by the IBLA related to the issuance of the oil and gas leases on WRNF lands from 1995 to 2004. In 2007, the Interior Board of Land Appeals (IBLA) ruled that before including WRNF parcels in an oil and gas lease sale, the BLM must either formally adopt NEPA analysis completed by the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) or conduct a NEPA analysis of its own (Board of Commissioners of Pitkin County, 173 IBLA 173 (2007)). The BLM has identified 65 existing leases with effective dates ranging from 1995 to 2012 that were leased by the BLM without adopting USFS NEPA or without the BLM preparing its own NEPA analysis. The most recent USFS decision to make these lands available for oil and gas leasing was analyzed in the 1993 WRNF Oil and Gas Leasing EIS, a decision that was reaffirmed in the 2002 WRNF Plan. Before offering and subsequently issuing the leases at issue in an oil and gas lease sale, the BLM obtained concurrence from the USFS; however, as noted above, it did not adopt the USFS’s NEPA analysis or prepare its own. As a result, the BLM has determined additional actions need to be taken to correct this defect. Because the BLM has determined that the WRNF NEPA analysis conducted is no longer adequate, the BLM is conducting its own NEPA analysis through this EIS regarding previous decisions to lease WRNF lands for oil and gas development. The BLM will determine whether these 65 leases should be cancelled, reaffirmed, or modified with additional or different terms. Under a separate effort, the WRNF updated its 1993 Oil and Gas Leasing EIS to address future oil and gas leasing availability. The USFS released the Final EIS and Draft Record of Decision in December 2014. The BLM incorporated as much of the new USFS NEPA analysis of future oil and gas leasing on WRNF lands as possible into its analysis of existing leases. Five alternatives are considered in the BLM’s Draft EIS. The No Action alternative reaffirms the lease stipulations in the 65 leases as they were issued; the BLM would take no action by continuing to administer the leases with their current stipulations. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:39 Nov 19, 2015 Jkt 238001 Alternative 2 would address inconsistencies by adding stipulations identified in the 1993 WRNF EIS that were not attached to eight leases. Alternative 3 would modify the 65 leases to match the stipulations identified for future leasing in the 2014 USFS Final EIS Proposed Action. Alternative 4 is the BLM’s Proposed Action. It would modify or cancel the 65 leases to match the stipulations and availability decision for future leasing identified in the 2014 USFS Draft Record of Decision. In areas the USFS identified as open to future leasing, lease stipulations would be modified; all or part of 25 existing leases in areas identified as closed to future leasing would be cancelled. Alternative 5 would cancel all 65 leases. The BLM developed this range of alternatives to respond to public comments received during public scoping and input from cooperating agencies. The BLM held a public scoping period from April 1 to May 16, 2014, and received more than 32,000 public comments. The BLM held four public meetings during the scoping period. Since the end of the public scoping period, the BLM worked with cooperating agencies (including the EPA; USFS; the Colorado Department of Natural Resources including Colorado Parks and Wildlife; Garfield, Mesa, Pitkin, and Rio Blanco counties; the Town of Carbondale; the City of Glenwood Springs; the Town of New Castle; the Town of Parachute; the City of Rifle; and the town of Silt) to prepare the Draft EIS.
