Download as PDF 14832 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 53 / Friday, March 18, 2016 / Notices value of the non-federal land; or (4) other matters related to the land exchange that are consistent with Section 3003 of the NDAA. asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Final EIS and Record of Decision The Forest Supervisor plans to release two draft RODs in conjunction with the final EIS. The first draft ROD would address the land exchange and the second draft ROD would address the GPO. Each draft decision would be subject to 36 CFR 218, ‘‘Project-Level Pre-decisional Administrative Review Process.’’ Depending on the nature of the forest plan amendments required, the draft decisions may also be subject to 36 CFR 219 Subpart B, ‘‘Predecisional Administrative Review Process.’’ Following resolution of objections to the draft RODs, final RODs would be issued. Resolution Copper would have an opportunity to appeal the decisions as set forth at 36 CFR 214, ‘‘Postdecisional Administrative Review Process for Occupancy and Use of National Forest System Lands and Resources.’’ Prior to approval of the GPO, Resolution Copper may be required to modify the proposed GPO to align it with the description of the selected alternative in the final ROD. In addition, the TNF Forest Supervisor would require Resolution Copper to submit a reclamation bond or other financial assurance to ensure that NFS lands and resources involved with the mining operation are reclaimed in accordance with the approved GPO and Forest Service requirements for environmental protection (36 CFR 228.8 and 228.13). After the Forest Service has determined that the GPO conforms to the ROD and that the reclamation bond is acceptable, it would approve the GPO. Implementation of mining operations that affect NFS lands and resources may not commence until a plan of operations is approved and the reclamation bond or other financial assurance is in place. Section 3003 of the NDAA requires the Secretary to convey all right, title, and interest of the United States in and to the federal land to Resolution Copper no later than 60 days after the date of publication of the final EIS. Preliminary Issues Issues to be analyzed in the EIS will be developed during this scoping process. Preliminary issues expected to be analyzed include potential impacts to: Air quality, socioeconomics; groundwater and surface water quality; riparian and aquatic areas and springs; surface water runoff; ground subsidence; historical and cultural VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:50 Mar 17, 2016 Jkt 238001 resources; traditional cultural properties and cultural landscapes; biological resources, including threatened and endangered species; environmental justice; recreation; transportation; noise; and visual resources. This list is subject to change based on comments received from the public and resource agencies. Permits or Licenses Required The following is a partial list of additional permits that may be required: Permits associated with well drilling and groundwater withdrawal (Arizona Department of Water Resources); air permits (Arizona Department of Environmental Quality and Pinal County); aquifer protection permit (Arizona Department of Environmental Quality); right-of-way permit for new 50-foot powerline right-of-way (Arizona State Land Department); Certificate of Environmental Compatibility for new power lines (Arizona Corporation Commission Power Plant and Line Siting Committee); Arizona Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit (Arizona Department of Environmental Quality); dam safety permits (Arizona Department of Water Resources); water quality certification under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (issued by the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality); and a permit under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (administered by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers). Scoping Process This notice of intent initiates the scoping (public involvement) process, which guides the development of the EIS. Public comments may be submitted to the TNF in a variety of ways, including: via email, via the project Web site, by mail, via facsimile, and verbally by leaving a phone message. In addition, the TNF will conduct a minimum of four open houses during which members of the public can learn about the proposed action and the NEPA review process, and submit comments. Comments sought by the TNF include specific comments to the proposed action, appropriate information that could be pertinent to analysis of environmental effects, identification of significant issues, and identification of potential alternatives. Written comments may be sent to: Resolution EIS Comments, P.O. Box 34468, Phoenix, AZ 85067–4468. Comments may also be sent via email to: Comments@resolutionmineeis.us, submitted via Web site at www.resolutionmineeis.us, sent via facsimile to 1–866–546–5718, or submitted by leaving a verbal message at 1–866–546–5718. PO 00000 Frm 00011 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 It is important that reviewers provide their comments at such times and in a manner in which they are useful to the agency’s preparation of the EIS. Although comments are welcome at any time during the NEPA review, they will be most useful to us if they are received within 60 days following the publication of this notice. Comments should clearly articulate the reviewer’s concerns. Comments received in response to this solicitation, including names and addresses of those who comment, will be part of the public record for this proposed action. Comments submitted anonymously will be accepted and considered; however, anonymous comments will not provide the agency with the ability to provide the respondent with subsequent environmental documents.
