being utilized in the DLE. This
alternative would be analyzed as a
variation to the Proposed Action and
Current Mining Activity Alternatives.
(c) No Action Alternative—as
described above, the court-approved
Voluntary Remand will vacate the 2008
mining plan modification for the DLE if
the EIS and Mining Plan Decision
Document are not complete within three
years, by August 31, 2019. Therefore, in
this instance, the No Action Alternative
is to continue with the present course of
action (mining) until that action is
changed (through vacatur of the mining
plan approval). Implementation of the
no action alternative would result in the
discontinuation of mining activities at
San Juan Mine and the final closure and
reclamation activities at the Mine. As a
consequence of Mine shutdown, the
Generating Station would likely cease
operations after any stockpiled coal is
used. Considering mining activities in
the DLE have been ongoing since 2008
and will continue throughout the NEPA
process, the baseline conditions for the
No Action Alternative will reflect the
conditions present in August 2019,
when the ASLM has made a decision on
the mining plan modification based on
OSMRE’s recommendation in the mine
plan decision document.
(d) Any environmentally preferable
alternatives that may be identified in
accordance with 40 CFR part 1500 and
43 CFR part 46.
The purpose of the public scoping
process is to determine relevant issues
that could influence the scope of the
environmental analysis, including
alternatives, and guide the process for
developing the EIS and related
compliance efforts. The final range of
reasonable alternatives to be considered
will be determined based, in part, on the
issues raised during the scoping
process.
At present, OSMRE has identified the
following preliminary issues and
potential impacts:
• Federally listed threatened and
endangered species, including but not
limited to the Razorback sucker
(Xyrauchen texanus), Colorado
pikeminnow (Ptychochelius lucius), and
Southwestern Willow Flycatcher
(Empidonax traillii extimus);
• Air quality and climate change;
• Surface and ground water resources
(including potential wetlands and
floodplains);
• Environmental Justice
considerations;
• Cultural and historic resources;
• Biological resources (including
wildlife, fish, and vegetation);

• Visual resources;
• Public health and safety;
• Land use and recreational
resources;
• Transportation and access;
• Socioeconomics; and
• Noise and vibration.
IV. Public Comment Procedures
In accordance with the CEQ’s
regulations for implementing NEPA and
the DOI’s NEPA regulations, OSMRE
solicits public comments on the scope
of the EIS and significant issues that
should be addressed in the EIS.
Written comments, including email
comments, should be sent to OSMRE at
the addresses given in the ADDRESSES
section of this Notice. Comments should
be specific and pertain only to the
issues relating to the Project and EIS.
OSMRE will include all comments in
the project record.
If you would like to be placed on the
mailing list to receive future
information, please contact the person
listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT, above. Navajo and Ute
interpreters will be present at meetings

Reservations, respectively.
Scoping Meetings
See DATES section above for the dates
and times of the public scoping
meetings. The primary purpose of the
meetings and the public comment
period is to provide the public with a
general understanding of the
background of the proposed action and
to solicit suggestions and information
on the scope of issues and alternatives
we should consider when preparing the
DEIS. Written and oral comments will
be accepted at the meetings. Comments
can also be submitted by the methods
listed in the ADDRESSES section. Once
the DEIS is complete and made
available for review, there will be
additional opportunity for public
comment.
Persons needing reasonable
accommodations in order to attend and
participate in the public scoping
meetings should contact the person
listed under the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section at as soon
