Notice of Availability for the Final
Environmental Impact Statement for
the Proposed Blackrock Land
Exchange, Bannock and Power
Counties, Idaho
Bureau of Land Management,
Department of the Interior.
ACTION: Notice of Availability.
AGENCY:
In compliance with the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 (NEPA), as amended, and the
Federal Land Policy and Management
Act of 1976 (FLPMA), as amended, the
Bureau of Land Management (BLM)
Pocatello Field Office, in Pocatello,
Idaho, has prepared a Final
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
for the proposed Blackrock Land
Exchange and by this notice is
announcing its availability.
DATES: The BLM will not issue a final
decision on the proposal for a minimum
of 60 days after the date that the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
publishes its Notice of Availability in
the Federal Register.
ADDRESSES: The Final EIS is available
on the BLM ePlanning project website at
https://go.usa.gov/xEUuc. If you are
unable to access the documents online
and would like a paper copy, please
contact the Project Lead identified
below.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Bryce Anderson, Project Manager by
telephone: 208–478–6353; address: 4350
S Cliffs Dr., Pocatello, ID 83204; or
email: bdanderson@blm.gov. People
who use a telecommunications device
for the deaf (TDD) may call the Federal

to contact Mr. Anderson. The FRS is

to leave a message or question with Mr.
Anderson. You will receive a reply
during normal business hours.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The BLM
is the lead agency for the land exchange
that was proposed in 2019. The Idaho
Department of Environmental Quality
(IDEQ), Idaho Governor’s Office of
Energy and Mineral Resources (OEMR),
EPA, and Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA)
are Cooperating Agencies.
In 1994, the J.R. Simplot Company
(Simplot) submitted a proposal to
acquire 719 acres of Federal land
managed by the BLM in exchange for
667 acres of non-Federal land. The
Federal lands are adjacent to Simplot’s
Don Plant in Power and Bannock
Counties, Idaho. The non-Federal lands
are located in the Blackrock and Caddy
Canyon areas in Bannock County
approximately 5 miles east-southeast of
Pocatello.
In 1998, pursuant to the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response Compensation and Liability
Act, the Don Plant facilities and the
surrounding area, known as the Eastern
Michaud Flats (EMF), were designated
as a Superfund Site, including a portion
of the proposed Federal lands to be
exchanged. The BLM prepared an
Environmental Assessment (EA) to
analyze the proposed land exchange and
issued a Decision Record/Finding of No
Significant Impact (DR/FONSI) on
December 21, 2007. The ShoshoneBannock Tribes litigated the decision in
District Court. In May 2011, the Court
granted the Tribes’ motion and
remanded the DR/FONSI to the BLM,
ordering the agency to prepare an EIS.
The BLM’s purpose is to evaluate the
current land exchange proposal and the
need is to respond to the proposal
pursuant to FLPMA. The land exchange
would result in improved resource
management in an area containing
crucial mule deer winter range and
would secure permanent public access
within a popular recreation area.
Simplot’s purpose for the proposed land
exchange is to implement legally
enforceable controls as directed by the
EPA and IDEQ. To meet fluoride
reduction requirements from a 2016
Consent Order with the IDEQ, Simplot
has proposed construction of cooling
