Notice. AGENCY: ACTION: This notice announces the addition of the thermal features within Valles Caldera National Preserve, New Mexico, to the list of significant thermal features within units of the National Park System under the Geothermal Steam Act. This designation will provide additional protection of these important thermal features, as well as opportunities for enhanced collaboration among Federal Agencies, scientists, and resource managers.

Box 25287, Lakewood, CO 80225–0287; telephone 303–969–2012. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 28, 2016, the National Park SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00049 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 17397 Service (NPS) published for public review and comment a proposal to add the thermal features within Valles Caldera National Preserve (Preserve), New Mexico, to the list of significant thermal features within units of the National Park System in accordance with the Geothermal Steam Act as amended (see 81 FR 95632 (Dec. 28, 2016)). During the public comment period, which closed on January 27, 2017, the NPS received comments from 65 individuals, American Indian tribes, and nongovernmental organizations. The purpose of this notice is to summarize the proposal, review the comments that the NPS received on the proposal, and update the list of park units containing significant thermal features by adding the Valles Caldera to the list as a volcanic feature, and adding the hydrothermal system within the Preserve as a hydrothermal feature. The Geothermal Steam Act (GSA), as amended, authorizes the Secretary of the Interior (Secretary) to issue geothermal leases for exploration, development and utilization of geothermal resources within available public lands administered by the Department, as well as on federal lands administered by the Department of Agriculture or other surface managing agencies, and on lands that have been conveyed by the United States subject to a reservation to the United States of the geothermal resources in those lands (30 U.S.C. 1002). The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) administers the geothermal resources program pursuant to its regulations at 43 CFR parts 3000, 3200, and 3280. On federal lands managed by the Agriculture Department or used for a federal water power project, the BLM must first obtain the consent of the Secretary of Agriculture or Secretary of Energy, respectively, before it may issue any leases for geothermal resources underlying those lands (see 30 U.S.C. 1014(b)). The GSA provides that lands administered by the National Park Service (NPS) are not subject to geothermal leasing, thereby prohibiting geothermal leasing and development in park units (see 30 U.S.C. 1002, 1014(c)). In addition, the Preserve has been expressly withdrawn from the operation of the geothermal leasing laws (16 U.S.C. 698v–11(b)(9)). The GSA directs the Secretary to maintain a list of significant thermal features within units of the National Park System (see 30 U.S.C. 1026(a)(1)). The GSA specified sixteen park units already identified as containing such features for the list, and also authorized the Secretary to add significant thermal features within these or other park units E:\FR\FM\02APN1.SGM 02APN1
