actions to improve the overall culture/
climate and DLA organizational
performance.
Affected Public: Individuals or
Households.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: An

Pebble Limited Partnership pursuant
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33
U.S.C. 1344) and Section 10 of the
Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 (33
U.S.C. 403) on December 22, 2017, and
was advertised in a Public Notice, POA–
2017–271, on January 5, 2018. The
public notice is available on Alaska
District’s public website at: https://

POA-2017-271%20Pebble_
PN.pdf?ver=2018-01-05-153755-640.
1. Description of the Proposed Project.
Pebble Limited Partnership (PLP) is
proposing to develop the Pebble coppergold-molybdenum porphyry deposit as
an open-pit mine, with associated
infrastructure, in southwest Alaska,
north of Lake Iliamna. The proposed
project would require approximately
four years to construct, with a projected
mine life of approximately 20 years.
Major project components include
excavation of an open pit, that
ultimately would be approximately
6,500 feet long by 5,500 feet wide, with
depths between 1,330 and 1,750 feet; a
tailings impoundment with 1.1 billion
tons storage volume; a low grade ore
stockpile with the capacity to store up
to 330 million tons; an open pit
overburden stockpile; a mill facility
processing approximately 160,000 tons
of ore per day; a natural gas-fired power
plant with a total connected load of 230
mega-watt (MW), supplied by a 188mile, 10 to 12-inch diameter, natural gas
pipeline across Cook Inlet and Iliamna
Lake to the Mine Site; and
transportation infrastructure including a
30-mile road from the Mine Site to a
ferry terminal on the north shore of
Iliamna Lake, an 18-mile crossing with
an ice-breaking ferry to a terminal on
the south shore of Iliamna Lake, and a
35-mile road to the proposed

Amakdedori Port on Cook Inlet. The
proposed mine and related facilities
would have a total footprint of
approximately 5.9 square miles.
The pipeline route would originate on
the Kenai Peninsula, connecting to the
existing gas pipeline infrastructure near
Happy Valley. A metering station would
be constructed at the off-take point and
the pipeline would then follow south
along the Sterling Highway for 9 miles
to a gas-fired compressor station north
of Anchor Point. The compressor station
would feed a 94-mile subsea pipeline
from the east shore of Cook Inlet to
Amakdedori Port on the west shore. A
second gas-fired compressor station
would be located at the port site. The
pipeline route would then follow a 30mile mine access road to the south shore
of Iliamna Lake, where the pipeline
would enter Iliamna Lake for
approximately 18 miles. The pipeline
would come ashore at on the north
shore of the lake, where it would follow
the mine access road to the Mine Site.
2. Alternatives. A range of alternatives
of the proposed action will be
identified, and those found to be
reasonable and practicable will be fully
evaluated in the DEIS, including: the no
action alternative, the applicant’s
proposed alternative, alternative mine
locations and mine plans, alternative
mining methods and processes,
alternatives that may result in avoidance
and minimization of impacts, and
mitigation measures not in the proposed
action. However, this list is not
exclusive and additional alternatives
may be considered for inclusion.
3. Scoping Process and Public
Involvement. The scoping period will
extend from April 1, 2018, through
April 30, 2018. Scoping is conducted to
assist in determining the scope of
analysis, significant issues and
alternatives to be analyzed in depth in
the DEIS. Comments should be as
specific as possible. Additional public
involvement will be sought through the
implementation of the public
involvement plan and the agency
coordination team.
4. Significant Issues. Numerous issues
will be analyzed in depth in the DEIS
related to the effects of the proposed
Pebble mine and associated
infrastructure construction, operation,
and closure. These issues will include,
but will not be limited to, the following:
wetlands, water quality, air quality,
hazardous materials, fish and wildlife,
vegetation, cultural resources, food
production, land use, needs and welfare
of the people (socioeconomics including
commercial fishing and tourism),
recreation, general environmental
