In accordance with the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969, as amended, and the Naval
Petroleum Reserves Production Act of
1976 (NPRPA), as amended, the Bureau
of Land Management (BLM), Alaska
State Office, has prepared the Final
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
for the Integrated Activity Plan (IAP) for
the National Petroleum Reserve in
Alaska (NPR–A) and by this notice is
announcing its publication.
DATES: The BLM will issue a Record of
Decision for the project no earlier than

reply during normal business hours.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The IAP/
EIS analyzes management of all BLM
managed lands in the NPR–A in a
manner consistent with existing
statutory direction and Secretarial Order
3352. Secretarial Order 3352 directed
the development of a schedule to
‘‘effectuate the lawful review and
development of an IAP for the NPR–A
that strikes an appropriate balance of
promoting development while
protecting surface resources.’’ The
NPRPA, as amended, and its
implementing regulations require oil
and gas leasing in the NPR–A and the
protection of surface values consistent
with exploration, development and
transportation of oil and gas. The IAP/
EIS will serve to inform BLM’s
management of the NPR–A for all
permissible uses.
Specifically, the IAP/EIS considers
and analyzes the environmental impact
of various management alternatives,
including the areas to offer for oil and
gas leasing, and the impacts that could
result based on consideration of a
hypothetical development scenario. The
alternatives analyze various terms and
conditions (i.e., lease stipulations and
required operating procedures) to
require of permittees in the NPR–A, to
properly balance oil and gas
development and other activities with
protection of surface resources and
other uses, including subsistence use.
The lands comprising the NPR–A are
approximately 23 million acres.
Public comments on the draft EIS
alternatives drove significant changes to
required operating procedures and lease
stipulations that were used to develop a
new and Preferred Alternative
(Alternative E). The Preferred
Alternative would make the most land
open to leasing (approximately 18.6
million acres, or 82 percent of NPR–A’s
subsurface estate).
The BLM has worked with interested
parties to identify the management
decisions best suited to local, regional,
and national needs and concerns, as
well as to develop a range of alternatives
that examines how best to balance

development with protecting surface
resources and other uses. Future on-theground actions requiring BLM approval,
including potential exploration and
development proposals, would require
further NEPA analysis based on the sitespecific proposal. Potential applicants
would be subject to the terms of the new
IAP/EIS Record of Decision; however,
the BLM Authorized Officer may require
additional site-specific terms and
conditions before authorizing any oil
and gas activity based on the project
level NEPA analysis.
