Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 18 / Friday, January 26, 2018 / Notices
for oil and gas development and other
measures necessary to address impacts
to air quality, cultural resources,
historic trails, public safety, recreational
opportunities, threatened and
endangered species, socioeconomic,
transportation, vegetation, visual
resources, water, wildlife habitats
including Greater Sage-grouse and
Greater Sage-grouse Priority Habitat
Management Areas, and other relevant
issues. The following is a summary of
the alternatives:
1. Alternative A: The No Action
Alternative assumes that approval of the
OG’s proposed Project would be denied
and new drilling would continue under
approval of the appropriate permitting
agency.
2. Alternative B: The Proposed Action
Alternative, which is also the Agency
Preferred Alternative, consists of the
OG’s proposal to explore and develop
potentially productive subsurface
formations underlying the CCPA by
drilling up to approximately 5,000 oil
and natural gas wells on 1,500 single
and multi-well pads within the CCPA
over a period of 10 years. The
production life of each well is estimated
to be approximately 30 years. The OG
would develop the CCPA using
directional, vertical, horizontal, and
other drilling techniques, as well as to
develop infrastructure to support oil
and gas production in the CCPA,
including: Well pads, roads, pipelines,
power lines, compressor stations,
electrical substations, and ancillary
facilities such as water supply wells and
water disposal facilities. The total
estimated new surface disturbance for
development under Alternative B would
be approximately 52,667 acres. This
alternative includes requesting fullseason exceptions, excluding USFS
Administered lands (i.e. year-round
drilling), to multiple timing limitation
stipulations which serve to protect
several wildlife species in the project
area.
3. Alternative C: This alternative
would reduce the surface disturbance
and related impacts from oil and gas
development based on assumptions that
a higher average number of wells would
be drilled from each pad. Specifically,
55 percent of well pads in the CCPA
would have up to 4 wells, 35 percent of
well pads in the CCPA would have 5 to
8 wells, and 10 percent of well pads in
the CCPA would have 9 to 16 wells.
This would provide for drilling the
same number of wells (5,000) under the
same drilling rate (500 wells per year)
as Alternative B. Furthermore, this
would reduce the total number of well
pads to 938, which would reduce the
miles of access roads, gas gathering

pipelines, water pipelines, and
overhead electrical lines needed, as well
as the acreage encumbered by the
proposed project. The total estimated
new surface disturbance for
development under Alternative C would
be approximately 37,267 acres. This
alternative would require that multiple
timing stipulations be applied as
outlined in the BLM RMP and the USFS
LRMP, thus not allowing for year-round
drilling.
The BLM NEPA Handbook (H–1790–
1) calls for expression of the BLM’s
preferred alternative in the Draft EIS if
one exists (BLM 2008c). The BLM
selected Alternative B, the Proposed
Action, as a preferred alternative for the
Converse County Oil and Gas
Development Project. The BLM believes
that the Proposed Action has the
necessary elements that would address
the purpose and need for the Draft EIS
and will review public comments on the
Draft before the preferred alternative is
identified in the Final EIS.
The No Action Alternative
(Alternative A) and each of the action
alternatives (Alternative B and C) are
discussed in terms of alternativespecific activities and schedule, design
features, and surface disturbance
summaries. Alternatives considered, but
eliminated from detailed analysis also
are discussed. The analysis of each
alternative focuses on the new
disturbance that would occur under
each alternative and would be in
addition to existing and permitted
disturbance.
The Notice of Intent to prepare an EIS
was published in the Federal Register
on May 16, 2014 (79 FR 28538). Key
issues identified during scoping
included: Potential impacts on private
landowners over Federal mineral estate;
socioeconomic impacts on local
communities and residents, including
new jobs and economic activity in the
community, as well as increased noise,
traffic, and population growth; potential
impacts on air quality and climate
change; potential impacts to
groundwater and surface water supply
and quality; potential impacts to
historic trails; enforcement of
reclamation and other mitigation on
non-Federal lands; impacts to area
recreation, grazing, and hunting; the
potential to impact Greater Sage-grouse,
migratory birds, big game and other
wildlife; and adequate analysis of
cumulative impacts.
The public is encouraged to comment
on any and all portions of the
document. The BLM and the USFS ask
that those submitting comments make
them as specific as possible with
reference to chapters, page numbers,

document.
Before including your address, phone
number, email address, or other
personal identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information—may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so. Comments that contain only
opinions or preferences will not receive
a formal response; however, they will be
considered and included as part of the
BLM and the USFS decision-making
process. The most useful comments are
those that include new technical or
scientific information, identification of
data gaps in the impact analysis, or
technical or scientific rationale for
opinions or preference.
