Notice of Availability: Well Stimulation Treatments on the 
Pacific Outer Continental Shelf

AGENCY: Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), and Bureau of Safety 
and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE), Interior.

ACTION: Notice of availability.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: BOEM and BSEE are announcing the availability of a 
Programmatic Environmental Assessment (PEA) and Finding of No 
Significant Impact (FONSI) for well stimulation treatments (WSTs) on 
the Pacific Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). This Notice of Availability 
(NOA) is published pursuant to implement the provisions of the National 
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, as amended. The PEA evaluates 
potential environmental effects of WSTs on the Pacific OCS. These 
activities include: fracturing WSTs (diagnostic fracture injection 
tests; hydraulic fracturing (e.g., frac pacs); and acid fracturing) and 
non-fracturing WSTs (matrix acidizing and polymer/surfactant 
injection). BOEM and BSEE are also issuing a FONSI supported by the 
analysis in the PEA. The FONSI concludes that the reasonably 
foreseeable environmental impacts associated with the proposed action 
and alternatives, as set forth in the PEA, would not significantly 
impact the quality of the human environment; therefore, the preparation 
of an Environmental Impact Statement is not required.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Rick Yarde, Regional Supervisor, 
Office of the Environment, Pacific Region BOEM, (805) 384-6379 or Mr. 
David Fish, Acting Chief Environmental Compliance Division BSEE, (202)
