would also concentrate the minor
amounts of uranium contained in the
ore.
• Construction and operation of
processing facilities designed to extract
and recover vanadium and uranium.
The processing facilities would include
a processing facility, ancillary facilities,
process offices and laboratory, septic
tank and leach field, and a pond system.
• Development of various ponds to
support ore processing and mine
operations that would work together to
keep process solution and incident
stormwater fully contained within the
zero-discharge process solution system.
• Construction and operation of a
stormwater management system that
would divert stormwater away from
mining and processing facilities.
• Development of a borrow area for
durable rhyolite rock material, which
would be used for overliner, riprap,
roads, and infrastructure, was identified
from outcrops located approximately
one mile to the southeast of the mine
site.
• Development of mine access roads
including haul, secondary, and general
mine roads. The project includes
upgrades to approximately 7 miles of
the Fish Creek Ranch Road for mine
access from State Route 379.
• Construction and operation of
power transmission lines
(approximately 3.6 miles) that would tie
into the 69-kilovolt (kV) power line that
currently provides power to the Pan
Mine (the Pan Line). The 24.9-kV
Gibellini Project power line would
extend to the proposed project area and
would include a substation in the
project area. An additional line would
power the water pumps near Fish Creek
Ranch.
• Development of mine water
resource, which would be supplied by
the Fish Creek Ranch irrigation system
and pumped from a 15,000-gallon water
collection tank south of the ranch to the
project area via an approximately 6.25mile water pipeline. The estimated
water use for the project is
approximately 500 gallons per minute
(gpm) 24 hours per day, 365 days per
year for mine use.
• Development of mineral exploration
activities, including access roads, drill
pads, sumps, trenches, surface
sampling, bulk sampling, staging areas,
and monitor wells, which would total
approximately 46 acres of disturbance
in the project area. Exact locations
would be identified during plan
implementation.
Reclamation of disturbed areas
resulting from mining operations would
be completed in accordance with BLM
and Nevada Division of Environmental
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Protection regulations. Reclamation
activities proposed in the Plan of
Operations include the following:
• Drill hole plugging;
• regrading and reshaping of
topography to the approximate original
contour;
• wildlife habitat rehabilitation;
• revegetation;
• removal or stabilization of
buildings, structures, and support
facilities;
• returning of existing roads in
project area to pre-project conditions;
• recontouring or regrading of all
other mine-related roads and safety
berms to approximate original contour;
and
• isolation, removal, and/or control of
acid-forming, toxic, or deleterious
materials.
The purpose of the public scoping
process is to identify relevant issues that
will influence the scope of the
environmental analysis, including
alternatives, and guide the process for
developing the EIS. The BLM has
identified preliminary issues associated
with the project: (1) Closure of the heap
leach facility; (2) potential impacts to
greater sage-grouse, a BLM sensitive
species; (3) potential impacts to visual
resources; (4) potential impacts to
wildlife habitat; (5) potential impacts to
surface and groundwater resources; and
(6) potential impacts to cultural
resources eligible under the National
Register of Historic Places.
The BLM will use and coordinate the
NEPA scoping process to help fulfill the
public involvement process under the
NHPA (54 U.S.C. 306108) as provided in
42 CFR 800.2(d)(3). The information
about historic and cultural resources
within the area potentially affected by
the proposed project will assist the BLM
in identifying and evaluating impacts to
such resources in the context of both
NEPA and the NHPA.
The BLM will consult with Native
American tribes on a government-togovernment basis in accordance with
Executive Order 13175 and other
policies. Tribal concerns, including
impacts on Indian trust assets and
potential impacts to cultural resources,
will be given due consideration.
Federal, State, and local agencies, along
with tribes and other stakeholders who
may be interested in or affected by the
proposed project that the BLM is
evaluating, are invited to participate in
the scoping process and, if eligible, may
request or be asked by the BLM to
participate in the development of the
EIS as a cooperating agency.
