SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PFS

intends to transport spent nuclear fuel

(SNF) by rail from commercial power

reactor sites to an existing rail line north

of Skull Valley. To transport the SNF

from the existing rail line to the

proposed facility, PFS proposes the

construction and operation of a rail

siding and rail line from Skunk Ridge

(near Low, Utah) to the site of the ISFSI

on the Reservation. This DEIS discusses

the purpose and need for the PFS

proposal and describes the proposed

action and its reasonable alternatives.

The PFS proposal requires approval

from four federal agencies, NRC, Bureau

of Indian Affairs (BIA), Surface

Transportation Board (STB), and BLM.

The BLM decision to grant a right-ofway to PFS would be dependent upon

the decisions made by the NRC and BIA.

If the NRC issues a license to PFS for the

proposed facility and BIA approves the

lease, then BLM’s preferred alternative

would be to amend the Pony Express

RMP and issue a right-of-way for the

Skunk Ridge rail siding and rail line.

State Director.

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management.

ACTION: Notice of Intent.

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the Federal Land

Policy and Management Act and the

National Environmental Policy Action

of 1969, the Bureau of Land

Management, Kingman Field Office,

Arizona will be preparing an

Environmental Assessment-level

amendment to the Kingman Resource

Management Plan. The plan amendment

will assess impacts of proposed changes

to land tenure classification and

management of federal lands in Mohave

County in western Arizona. It is

proposed to change 478.11 acres of land

classified as available for Recreation and

Public Purpose uses to a classification of

available for disposal, that is

conveyance out of public ownership

through exchange.

DATES: Written comments will be

accepted until July 24, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be sent to

Bureau of Land Management, Kingman

Field Office, 2475 Beverly Avenue,

Kingman, Arizona, 86401.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CALL: Don

McClure, (520) 692–4400.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

proposed plan amendment is in the area

of the community of Golden Valley. The

BLM is considering a land exchange

where approximately 15,000 acres of

public lands that were classified for

disposal would be conveyed into private

ownership in the Golden Valley area

north west of Kingman, AZ. The public

would acquire approximately 18,000

acres to be managed by BLM, southeast

of Kingman, AZ.

The proponent for the land exchange

expressed interest in acquiring section

31 of Township 22N, Range 18 West

(636.36 acres) that was classified for

Recreation and Public Purposes. This

section is adjacent to lands that are

classified as available for disposal and

are being considered in the land

exchange. It is proposed to change

478.11 acres of land classified as

available for Recreation and Public

Purpose uses to a classification of

available for disposal; that is

conveyance out of public ownership

through exchange. The remainder of the

section, 158.25 acres, the Lots 3, 4,

E25W of Section 31 T22N, R18W, would

remain classified for Recreation and

Public Purposes.

This proposed modification to the

Kingman Resource Management Plan

will be integrated with the proposed

Cane Springs land exchange, and the

impact thereof will be presented in a

single EA-level analysis. The EA

currently is being prepared and a fact

sheet on the Cane Springs land

exchange has been mailed to

approximately 160 persons or agencies.

The fact sheet is available upon request.

The issues that will be addressed by

the plan amendment include the

following; is 158.25 acres enough land

for Recreation and Public Purpose uses

in this area of Golden Valley and what

is the proposed use of the land that

would be conveyed into private

ownership?

The following criteria are proposed to

guide the resolution of the issues:

actions must comply with laws,

executive orders, and regulations;

consider the long term benefits to the

public in relation to short term benefits;

be reasonable and achievable; use an

interdisciplinary approach to land

management.

Public Input Requested: Comments

should address issues to be considered,

if the planning criteria are adequate for

the issues, feasible and reasonable

alternatives to examine, and relevant

information on the EA-level plan

amendment.
