10242 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 44 / Wednesday, March 7, 2007 / Notices 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The BLM 

signed a Record of Decision (ROD) for 

Newmont Mining Corporation’s South 

Operations Area Project Amendment 

located on the Carlin Trend in 

northeastern Nevada, on July 26, 2002. 

That ROD authorized Newmont to mine 

an additional 350 feet below what had 

been previously authorized and to 

expand 139 acres aerially, to expand 

waste rock disposal facilities and leach 

facilities, to continue dewatering and 

ground water discharge to Maggie Creek, 

and to construct associated ancillary 

facilities. 

Four years of legal review resulted in 

the United States Court of Appeals for 

the Ninth Circuit partially reversing the 

ROD. In response, the BLM will review 

and update the cumulative effects 

analyzed in Chapter 4 of the 2002 EIS 

and issue a SEIS, along with a new 

ROD. 

Comments, including names and 

street addresses of respondents, will be 

available for public review at the above 

address during regular business hours 

7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through 

Friday, except holidays, and may be 

published as part of the SEIS. Before 

including your address, phone number, 

e-mail address, or other personal 

identifying information in your 

comment, be advised that your entire 

comment—including your personal 

identifying information—may be made 

publicly available at any time. While 

you can ask us in your comment to 

withhold from public review your 

personal identifying information, we 

cannot guarantee that we will be able to 

do so. All submissions from 

organizations or businesses, and from 

individuals identifying themselves as 

representatives or officials of 

organizations or businesses, will be 

available for public inspection in their 

entirety.
