regulations at 43 CFR 1610.3–2(e), the
BLM submitted the Proposed RMPA/
Final SEIS for the Miles City Field
Office planning effort to the Governor of
Montana for a 60-day Governor’s
Consistency Review in order for the
Governor to review the Proposed RMPA
and identify any inconsistencies with
State plans, policies, or programs. On
July 16, 2024, the Governor of Montana
submitted a response for the Miles City
Field Office RMPA/Final SEIS to the
BLM Montana/Dakotas State Director.
The State Director reviewed the
Governor’s response and the alleged
consistency issues and did not accept
the Governor’s recommendations. The
BLM sent a written response to the
Governor on August 12, 2024.
On September 18, 2024, the Governor
of Montana appealed the State Director’s
decision to the BLM Director. In
reviewing these appeals, the regulations
at 43 CFR 1610.3–2(e) state that ‘‘[t]he
Director shall accept the (consistency)
recommendations of the Governor(s) if
he/she determines they provide for a
reasonable balance between the state’s
interest and the national interest.’’ On
November 6, 2024, the BLM Director
issued a response to the Governor
detailing the reasons that the
recommendations did not meet this
standard. Pursuant to 43 CFR 1610.3–
2(e), the basis for the BLM’s
determination on the Governor’s appeal
is presented below. The appeal response
is being published verbatim.
‘‘I am in receipt of your letter dated
September 18, 2024, which contains the
State of Montana’s appeal to the Bureau
of Land Management (BLM) Montana/
Dakotas State Director’s response to the
Governor’s consistency review of the
Miles City Field Office Proposed
Resource Management Plan Amendment
(RMPA) and Final Supplemental
Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS).
The Governor’s consistency review is an
important part of the BLM land use
planning process, and we appreciate the
significant time and attention that you
and your staff have committed to this
effort.
The applicable regulations at 43 CFR
1610.3–2(e) provide you with the
opportunity to appeal the State
Director’s decision to not accept the
recommendations you made in your
consistency review letter. These
regulations also guide my review of the
appeal, in which I must consider
whether you have raised inconsistencies
with State or local plans, policies, and
or programs. If inconsistencies are
raised, I consider whether your
recommendations address the
inconsistencies and provide for a
reasonable balance between the national

interest and the State of Montana’s
interest.
I have completed my review of your
appeal and determined that the
recommendation you have provided
does not meet this standard for the
reasons detailed in the following
paragraphs.
In your appeal, you allege the three
consistency issues below:
• ‘‘Alternative D is inconsistent with
Montana’s Constitutional Mandate to
utilize State Trust Lands to fund schools
and other public institutions.’’
• ‘‘Alternative D is inconsistent with
Montana’s ‘All-Of-The-Above’ Energy
Strategy, and the SEIS fails to consider
critical local energy plan.’’
• ‘‘Alternative D conflicts with
Montana’s Coal Revenue Trust Fund
Policy.’’
It is your recommendation that ‘the
BLM withdraw the Miles City Field
Office RMPA/SEIS and work
collaboratively with the State to form
alternatives that honor State plans,
policies, and programs.’
Upon review, I find that your
recommendation does not present a
reasonable balance between the national
and the State’s interest. The Proposed
RMPA/Final SEIS is a land use level
review specific to the Miles City Field
Office and is in response to the Federal
district court’s order in Western
Organization of Resource Councils, et al.
v. Bureau of Land Management, Civil
Action No. CV–00076–GF–BMM (D.
Mont. 2022). The BLM developed a
range of alternatives to meet the purpose
and need of the Proposed RMPA/Final
SEIS and the court’s order, such as to
complete new coal screens in
accordance with 43 CFR 3420.1–4;
provide additional land use planning
level analysis that considers no-leasing
and limited coal leasing alternatives;
and disclose the public health impacts,
both climate and non-climate, of
burning fossil fuels (coal, oil, and gas)
from the planning area.
While there are State and Federal
policies that may encourage coal mining
and facilitate the orderly development
of coal resources, they do not mandate
that coal mining would be authorized
wherever coal reserves may be present.
The Proposed RMPA/Final SEIS also
only applies to federally administered
coal in the Miles City Field Office
planning area and does not make
decisions on State lands or privately
owned coal resources. Similarly, the
BLM’s regulatory process does not apply
to State lands and does not preclude the
State from making management
decisions for State trust lands, nor
preclude the State’s authority to
manage[ ], permit, and bill other uses of
PO 00000
Frm 00054
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

State lands accordingly to meet the
State’s fiduciary responsibility.
Additionally, under Alternative D, the
State’s mineral estate was determined to
not have development potential or not
expected to be leased or mined within
the life of the plan. This is due to: (1)
no new mines projected, (2) the
Rosebud Mine having sufficient coal
reserves from existing leases, and (3) the
Spring Creek Mine projecting needs
from pending Federal leases and
subsequent 1,300 acres of Federal coal
leases. The BLM also carefully
considered current and future coal
demand with national and international
trends as they relate to coal
development in the Miles City planning
area. The BLM recognizes a potential
future decrease, but that is expected as
the national coal market is in decline
and trending to continue that decline
throughout the life of the plan.
Finally, the BLM has prepared the
Miles City Proposed RMPA/Final SEIS
in accordance with all applicable
Federal laws, regulations, and policies.
The BLM did carefully review and
consider applicable State, local, and
other Federal agency plans, policies,
and programs in the development of the
Miles City Proposed RMPA/Final SEIS.
The BLM is consistent, to the extent
practicable, with these plans as per the
provisions of the Federal Land Policy
and Management Act and the planning
regulations at 43 CFR 1610–3–2.’’

ACTION: Notice of withdrawal
application.
AGENCY:
The United States Forest
Service (USFS) has filed an application
requesting that the Secretary of the
Interior withdraw approximately
264,441.79 acres of Federal lands in the
Ruby Mountains from leasing under the
mineral and geothermal laws, for 20
years, subject to valid existing rights.
The application also includes
approximately 44,670.87 acres of non-

Federal lands that would be subject to
the withdrawal if they are subsequently
acquired by the United States. The
purpose of the withdrawal would be to
preserve the scenic values, recreational
opportunities, outdoor economy, rare
wildlife and plant habitat, and cultural
resources that the Ruby Mountains and
neighboring spaces support. The lands
would remain open to location and
entry under the U.S. mining laws, and
subject to mineral material disposal
under the Materials Act of 1947.
Publication of this notice temporarily
segregates the lands for up to 2 years,
initiates a 90-day public comment
period, and announces to the public an
opportunity to comment and participate
in a virtual public meeting on the USFS’
withdrawal application.
DATES: All comments must be received
by March 31, 2025. In addition, the
USFS and the Bureau of Land
Management (BLM) will host a virtual
public meeting addressing the USFS
withdrawal application and associated
environmental review process on
February 14, 2025 at 2 p.m. PST. The
BLM will publish the instructions for
access to the online public meeting in
the Elko Daily Free Press newspaper a
minimum of 30 days prior to the
meeting.
ADDRESSES: All comments should be
sent to the Bureau of Land Management,
Nevada State Office, Attn: Edison
Garcia/Ruby Mountain Withdrawal,
1340 Financial Blvd., Reno, NV 89502;
or sent by email to edisongarcia@

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
purpose of the withdrawal would be to
preserve the scenic values, recreational
opportunities, outdoor economy, rare
wildlife and plant habitat, and cultural
resources that the Ruby Mountains and
neighboring spaces support, by
removing these lands from leasing
under the Mineral Leasing Act of 1920
(30 U.S.C. 181 et seq., as amended), the

withdrawals or segregations of record,
the lands would remain open to location
and entry under the U.S. mining laws,
and subject to mineral material disposal
under the Materials Act of 1947 (30
U.S.C. 601 et seq.). The application
requests the Secretary of the Interior to
withdraw the following Federal lands
and interests in lands. In addition, the
application requests that any nonFederal lands or interests in lands
within the withdrawal application area
acquired by the United States in the
future also be subject to the withdrawal
upon acquisition by the United States:

Withdrawal Application and Public Meeting for the Ruby Mountains;
Nevada
AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.
ACTION: Notice of withdrawal application.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The United States Forest Service (USFS) has filed an
application requesting that the Secretary of the Interior withdraw
approximately 264,441.79 acres of Federal lands in the Ruby Mountains
from leasing under the mineral and geothermal laws, for 20 years,
subject to valid existing rights. The application also includes
approximately 44,670.87 acres of non-
[[Page 107158]]
Federal lands that would be subject to the withdrawal if they are
subsequently acquired by the United States. The purpose of the
withdrawal would be to preserve the scenic values, recreational
opportunities, outdoor economy, rare wildlife and plant habitat, and
cultural resources that the Ruby Mountains and neighboring spaces
support. The lands would remain open to location and entry under the
U.S. mining laws, and subject to mineral material disposal under the
Materials Act of 1947. Publication of this notice temporarily
segregates the lands for up to 2 years, initiates a 90-day public
comment period, and announces to the public an opportunity to comment
and participate in a virtual public meeting on the USFS' withdrawal
application.
DATES: All comments must be received by March 31, 2025. In addition,
the USFS and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) will host a virtual
public meeting addressing the USFS withdrawal application and
associated environmental review process on February 14, 2025 at 2 p.m.
PST. The BLM will publish the instructions for access to the online
public meeting in the Elko Daily Free Press newspaper a minimum of 30
days prior to the meeting.
ADDRESSES: All comments should be sent to the Bureau of Land
Management, Nevada State Office, Attn: Edison Garcia/Ruby Mountain
Withdrawal, 1340 Financial Blvd., Reno, NV 89502; or sent by email to
[email protected]. The BLM will not consider comments via telephone
calls.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Edison Garcia, Land Law Examiner,
Nevada State Office at (775) 861-6530; or you may contact the BLM
office at the address noted above. Individuals in the United States who
are deaf, deafblind, hard of hearing, or have a speech disability may
dial 711 (TTY, TDD, or TeleBraille) to access telecommunications relay
services. Individuals outside the United States should use the relay
services offered within their country to make international calls to
the point-of-contact in the United States. You will receive a reply
during normal business hours.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The purpose of the withdrawal would be to
preserve the scenic values, recreational opportunities, outdoor
economy, rare wildlife and plant habitat, and cultural resources that
the Ruby Mountains and neighboring spaces support, by removing these
lands from leasing under the Mineral Leasing Act of 1920 (30 U.S.C. 181
et seq., as amended), the Mineral Leasing Act for Acquired Lands of
1947 (30 U.S.C. 351 et seq., as amended), the Geothermal Steam Act of
1970 (30 U.S.C. 1001 et seq., as amended), and section 402 of the
President's Reorganization Plan No. 3 of 1946 (16 U.S.C. 520 and 16
U.S.C. 508b). Subject to overlapping withdrawals or segregations of
record, the lands would remain open to location and entry under the
U.S. mining laws, and subject to mineral material disposal under the
Materials Act of 1947 (30 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). The application requests
the Secretary of the Interior to withdraw the following Federal lands
and interests in lands. In addition, the application requests that any
non-Federal lands or interests in lands within the withdrawal
application area acquired by the United States in the future also be
subject to the withdrawal upon acquisition by the United States:
