Management (BLM) as a cooperating agency as described below, has 
prepared a final environmental impact statement (EIS) for the Clear 
Creek Expansion Project (Project) proposed by Spire Storage West, LLC 
(Spire). Spire requests authorization to expand natural gas storage at 
its existing Clear Creek Storage Field, modify the Clear Creek Plant to 
increase compression, decommission and remove facilities from the Clear 
Creek Plant, and move natural gas liquid storage and fueling equipment 
to an existing tank pad. Spire further proposes to construct pipeline 
connections north to the Canyon Creek Plant and south to the Kern River 
Gas Transmission mainline. All Project components are proposed in Uinta 
County, Wyoming.
    The final EIS assesses the potential environmental effects of the 
construction and operation of the Project in accordance with the 
requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). As 
described in the final EIS, the FERC staff concludes that approval of 
the Project would result in some adverse environmental impacts;

avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures proposed by Spire and 
those recommended by staff in the EIS. Regarding climate change 
impacts, FERC staff conclude that greenhouse gas emissions would fall 
below the Commission's presumptive significance threshold.
    The BLM participated as a cooperating agency in preparation of this 
EIS. Cooperating agencies have jurisdiction by law or special expertise 
with respect to resources potentially affected by the proposal and 
participate in the NEPA analysis. The BLM provided input into the 
analyses, conclusions, and recommendations presented in the EIS. 
Following issuance of the final EIS, the BLM will issue subsequent 
decisions, determinations, permits, or authorizations for the Project 
in accordance with its own regulatory requirements. The BLM would use 
this EIS to satisfy compliance with NEPA and other related federal 
environmental laws (e.g., the National Historic Preservation Act).
    The final EIS addresses the potential environmental effects of the 
construction and operation of the following Project facilities:
     Four compressor units and associated processing equipment 
at the Clear Creek Plant;
     a tank storage and natural gas liquids fueling equipment 
facility on an existing pad;
     11 new injection/withdrawal wells, one new water disposal 
well, and associated lines;
     approximately 7 miles of 20-inch-diameter pipeline;
     approximately 3.6 miles of 24-inch-diameter pipeline; and
     other related appurtenances.
    The Commission mailed a copy of the Notice of Availability of the 
final EIS to federal, state, and local government representatives and 
agencies; elected officials; environmental and public interest groups; 
Indian Tribes; potentially affected landowners and other interested 
individuals and groups; and newspapers and libraries in the area of the 
Project. The final EIS is only available in electronic format. It may 
be viewed and downloaded from the FERC's website (www.ferc.gov), on the 
Environmental Documents page (https://www.ferc.gov/industries/gas/enviro/eis.asp). In addition, the final EIS may be accessed by using
