I. Background on the Project
As established by the Mineral Leasing
Act (MLA) of 1920, the Surface Mining
Control and Reclamation Act (SMCRA)
of 1977, as amended (30 U.S.C. 1201–
1328), and the Cooperative Agreement
between the State of New Mexico and
the Secretary of the U.S. Department of
the Interior (DOI) in accordance with
Section 523(c) of SMCRA (30 U.S.C.
1273(c)), SJCC’s Permit Application
Package (PAP) must be reviewed by the
OSMRE and a mining plan modification
approved by the Assistant Secretary for
Land and Minerals Management
(ASLM) before SJCC may significantly
disturb the environment in order to
develop the DLE Federal Coal Lease
Tract NM–99144. The NM Mining and
Minerals Division (NM MMD) is the
SMCRA regulatory authority principally
responsible for reviewing and approving
PAPs. Under the MLA, the OSMRE is
responsible for making a
recommendation to the ASLM about
whether the proposed mining plan
modification should be approved,
disapproved, or approved with
conditions (30 CFR 746.13). The NM
MMD approved the PAP for the DLE on
October 22, 1999. The ASLM first
approved the mining plan modification
for DLE Federal Coal Lease Tract NM–
99144 on January 17, 2008, after
receiving a recommendation from the
OSMRE for approval that included a
Finding of No Significant Impact signed
by the OSMRE in 2007 and the Bureau
of Land Management’s (BLM) 1998
decision record on an amendment to the
1988 Farmington Resource Management
Plan to include Federal Coal Lease Tract
NM–99144.
The OSMRE’s NEPA analysis
supporting the 2008 mining plan
modification was challenged in the U.S.
District Court of New Mexico. WildEarth
Guardians v. U.S. Office of Surface
Mining et al., Case 1:14–cv–00112–RJ–
CG (D. NM) (amended petition filed
March 14, 2014). On August 31, 2016,
the Court granted the OSMRE’s Motion
for Voluntary Remand, which remanded
the matter to the OSMRE to prepare an
EIS within 3 years of the Court’s order.
The Final EIS available today has been
prepared in accordance with the
voluntary remand.
The San Juan Mine has contractual
obligations to deliver approximately 3
million tons of coal per year to the San
Juan Generating Station (Generating
Station) from 2008 through 2022.
Mining activities within the DLE have
been ongoing since the OSMRE
approval in 2008 and continue
presently. Per the voluntary remand,
mining operations within the DLE are
