SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ConocoPhillips Alaska, Inc.
(ConocoPhillips) initiated discussions
with the BLM regarding potential
development of its recently announced
Willow oil and gas prospect, which is
located on Federal oil and gas leases
ConocoPhillips holds within the Bear
Tooth Unit of the NPR–A approximately
30 air miles west of the Native Village
of Nuiqsut. The BLM manages
approximately 23 million acres
comprising the NPR–A, located on
Alaska’s North Slope.
On May 10, 2018, ConocoPhillips
submitted a letter requesting the
development of the Willow prospect
through a MDP/EIS. The letter, available
on the BLM Alaska website, includes a
description of the foreseeable
infrastructure and activity associated
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 244001
with the proposed Willow prospect
development and a map of the proposed
area of development. Analyzing the
entire proposed Willow development in
a single MDP/EIS will allow the BLM to
make determinations of National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
adequacy when individual applications
for permits to drill are submitted. This
is expected to result in a quicker and
more efficient process for the approval
of applications for permits to drill.
The MDP/EIS will analyze the
environmental impacts and appropriate
mitigation measures to reduce adverse
effects to surface resources of the
proposed Willow prospect which would
involve the construction, operation, and
maintenance of an oil and gas
development project which may
include: One central processing facility,
an infrastructure pad, up to five drill
pads with up to fifty wells on each pad,
access and infield roads, an airstrip,
pipelines, a gravel mine, and a
temporary island to support module
delivery via sealift barges.
The MDP/EIS will be prepared in
accordance with recently issued
Executive Orders and Secretarial
guidance on streamlining and
improving the NEPA and other
regulatory processes. At present, the
BLM has identified the following
preliminary issues for evaluation in the
MDP/EIS, impacts to: Subsistence use
and access; biological resources,
including caribou, polar bears,
spectacled and Stellar eiders, yellow
billed loons, and fisheries; social and
cultural resources; air quality and
climate; and aquatic resources.
The BLM will use NEPA public
participation guidelines to assist the
agency in satisfying the public
involvement requirements under
Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act (54 U.S.C. 306108),
pursuant to 36 CFR 800.2(d)(3).
The information about historic and
cultural resources within the area
potentially affected by the Willow
development project will assist the BLM
in identifying and evaluating impacts to
cultural resources in the context of both
NEPA and Section 106 of the National
Historic Preservation Act.
Before including your address, phone
number, email address, or other
personally identifiable information in
your comment, you should be aware
that your entire comment—including
your personally identifiable
information—may be made publicly
available at any time. While you can ask
the BLM in your comment to withhold
your personally identifiable information
from public review, we cannot
guarantee that we will be able to do so.

The BLM will consult with federally
recognized Tribes on a government-togovernment basis in accordance with
Executive Order 13175 and other
policies. Tribal concerns will be given
appropriate consideration.
Federal, state, local agencies, and
Tribes that may be interested in or
substantially affected by the proposal
that the BLM is evaluating are invited to
request participation in the
development of the MDP/EIS as
cooperating agencies. Appropriate
cooperating agencies are those with
jurisdiction by law and/or those that can
offer special expertise in the
development of the MDP/EIS.
Authority: 40 CFR 1501.7.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
A federal grant is an award of
financial assistance from a federal
agency to a recipient to carry out a
public purpose of support or
stimulation authorized by a law of the
United States. The NASA Procurement
Office supports NASA research, science,
and education communities through the
award of research/education/and
training grants in the science,
technology, engineering, and math
(STEM) fields. NASA has a continuing
commitment to identify and address
inequities associated with its grant
review and awards processes. To
support that commitment, NASA
implemented a process to collect
demographic data from grant applicants
for the purpose of analyzing
demographic differences associated
with its award processes. Information
collected includes the name, gender,
race, ethnicity, disability status,
citizenship status, education, and career
data of the respondents.
Submission of the information is
voluntary and is not a precondition of
award. However, if the information is
not submitted, it will undermine the
usefulness of information received from
other respondents.
