Utah; Management Framework Plans
AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management.
ACTION: Notice of Availability of Proposed Plan Amendment and
Environmental Assessment/FONSI on Oil and Gas Leasing for the Randolph
and Park City Management Framework Plans, Bear River Resource Area,
Utah.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management completed a Proposed Plan
Amendment/EA/FONSI on May 26, 1994. All public land and subsurface oil
and gas estate in Cache, Davis, Morgan, Rich, Summit, Wasatch, and
Weber Counties have been analyzed. The proposed recategorization for
oil and gas leasing is as follows:
Category 1--Open to leasing, 102,139 acres.
Category 2--Open to leasing with special stipulations, 330,723 acres.
Category 3--Open to leasing with no surface occupancy, 530 acres.
Category 4--Closed to leasing, 0 acres.
The proposed amendment to the Randolph and Park City Management
Framework Plans (MFPs) would incorporate these revised decisions on
management of oil and gas resources. The final Environmental Assessment
revealed no significant impacts from the proposed action. The Bureau's
preferred alternative is Alternative 1--Proposed Action. A Notice of
Intent proposing to amend the MFPs was published in the Federal
Register on April 24, 1990.
A 30-day protest period for the planning amendment will commence
with publication of this notice of availability.
