Record of Decision for Land 

Acquisition and Airspace 

Establishment To Support Large-Scale 

Marine Air Ground Task Force LiveFire and Maneuver Training at the 

Marine Corps Air Ground Combat 

Center, Twentynine Palms, CA 

AGENCY: Department of the Navy, DoD. 

ACTION: Notice of Record of Decision. 

SUMMARY: Pursuant to Section 102(2)(c) 

of the National Environmental Policy 

Act (NEPA) of 1969, 42 United States 

Code 4321–4370h, as implemented by 

the Council on Environmental Quality 

regulations, 40 Code of Federal 

Regulations (CFR) parts 1500–1508, the 

Department of Navy (DoN) NEPA 

regulations (32 CFR part 775), and 

Marine Corps Order P5090.2A (with 

Changes 1, 2) Marine Corps 

Environmental Compliance and 

Protection Manual, Chapter 12, the DoN, 

after carefully weighing the operational 

and environmental consequences of the 

proposed action in an Environmental 

Impact Statement (EIS), announces its 

decision to establish a large-scale 

Marine Air Ground Task Force 

(MAGTF) training facility at the Marine 

Corps Air Ground Combat Center in 

Twentynine Palms, California (‘‘the 

Combat Center’’) to accommodate a 

required new program of sustained, 

combined-arms, live-fire, and maneuver 

training for all elements of a Marine 

Expeditionary Brigade (MEB)-sized 

MAGTF, including full-scale MEB 

Exercises and associated MEB Building 

Block training. To accommodate the 

required MEB training activities, DoN, 

acting through the Combat Center, will: 

Purchase additional private and state 

lands adjacent to the Combat Center; 

request withdrawal by Act of Congress 

of additional public lands adjacent to 

the Combat Center; pursue through the 

Federal Aviation Administration the 

establishment and modification of 

military Special Use Airspace for 

proposed MEB-sized training range; and 

conduct the specified MEB training. 

Land withdrawal of more than 5,000 

acres for the purposes of national 

defense may only be made by an Act of 

Congress. The DoN has selected 

Alternative 6, the Preferred Alternative, 

(with additional mitigation developed 

in consultation with the Bureau of Land 

Management [BLM]), for 

implementation and recommendation to 

Congress. Alternative 6 includes the 

withdrawal of public land and purchase 

of private and state lands collectively 

totaling approximately 167,971 acres 

west and south of the existing Combat 

Center. All practical means to avoid or 

minimize environmental harm from the 

Preferred Alternative that were 

identified in the Final EIS have been 

adopted.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

[OE Docket No. EA–336–A] 

Application To Export Electric Energy; 

ConocoPhillips Company 

AGENCY: Office of Electricity Delivery 

and Energy Reliability, DOE. 

ACTION: Notice of Application. 

SUMMARY: ConocoPhillips Company 

(CoP) has applied to renew its authority 

to transmit electric energy from the 

United States to Mexico pursuant to 

section 202(e) of the Federal Power Act. 

DATES: Comments, protests, or motions 

to intervene must be submitted on or 

before March 21, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: Comments, protests, or 

motions to intervene should be 

addressed to: Lamont Jackson, Office of 

Electricity Delivery and Energy 

Reliability, Mail Code: OE–20, U.S. 

Department of Energy, 1000 

Independence Avenue SW., 

Washington, DC 20585–0350. Because 

of delays in handling conventional mail, 

it is recommended that documents be 

transmitted by overnight mail, by 

electronic mail to 

Lamont.Jackson@hq.doe.gov, or by 

facsimile to 202–586–8008. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Lamont Jackson (Program Office) at 

202–586–0808, or by email to 

Lamont.Jackson@hq.doe.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Exports of 

electricity from the United States to a 

foreign country are regulated by the 

Department of Energy (DOE) pursuant to 

sections 301(b) and 402(f) of the 

Department of Energy Organization Act 

(42 U.S.C. 7151(b), 7172(f)) and require 

authorization under section 202(e) of 

the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 

824a(e)). 

On April 17, 2008, DOE issued Order 

No. EA–336, which authorized CoP to 

transmit electric energy from the United 

States to Mexico as a power marketer for 

a five-year term using existing 

international transmission facilities. 

That authority expires on April 17, 

2013. On November 29, 2012, CoP filed 

an application with DOE for renewal of 

the export authority contained in Order 

No. EA–336 for an additional five-year 

term. 

In its application, CoP states that 

neither it nor any of its affiliates 

currently own or control electric 

generating or transmission facilities 

except for those facilities necessary to 

connect generation facilities to the 

transmission grid. CoP states that all of 

the electric energy that CoP proposes to 

export to Mexico will be surplus to the 

needs of the selling entities. The 

existing international transmission 

facilities to be utilized by CoP have 

previously been authorized by 

Presidential permits issued pursuant to 

Executive Order 10485, as amended, 

and are appropriate for open access 

transmission by third parties. 

Procedural Matters: Any person 

desiring to be heard in this proceeding 

should file a comment or protest to the 

application at the address provided 

above. Protests should be filed in 

accordance with Rule 211 of the Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission’s (FERC) 

Rules of Practice and Procedures (18

address provided above on or before the

McFaden and Charles F. Eisenhardt, 

ConocoPhillips Company, 600 North

final decision will be made on this 

application after the environmental 

impacts have been evaluated pursuant 

to DOE’s National Environmental Policy 

Act Implementing Procedures (10 CFR 

part 1021) and after a determination is 

made by DOE that the proposed action 

will not have an adverse impact on the 

sufficiency of supply or reliability of the 

U.S. electric power supply system.
