A third tailings facility, which includes 

burial of an existing tailings facility, (2) 

a new waste rock facility (Clydesdale), 

(3) an expansion of the open pit by 296 

acres, which will result in an increase 

of the size of the post-mining pit lake 

from 800 to 900 acres, and (4) an 

extension of mining activities until 

approximately 2015, including mining 

employment for 4 years as well as an

Notice of Intent To Amend the Las 

Vegas Resource Management Plan To 

Relocate a Utility Corridor; Nevada 

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice of intent. 

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land 

Management (BLM) proposes to amend 

the Las Vegas Resource Management 

Plan (RMP) to allow for the relocation 

of a section of a BLM utility corridor, 

and to prepare an environmental 

assessment (EA), pursuant to Section 

102 of the National Environmental 

Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) to analyze 

the effects of that action. The BLM 

proposes to relocate an 11.4-mile length 

of the half-mile wide BLM Utility 

Corridor that currently extends across 

the southern portion of Indian Springs 

in Clark County, NV. The Corridor as 

designated overlaps private lands. The 

amendment would relocate the Corridor 

further south behind Grandpa Mountain 

to avoid the private lands. 

DATES: The scoping comment period 

will commence with the publication of 

this notice and will end 30 days after its 

publication. Comments should be 

submitted in writing to the address 

below and will be accepted throughout 

the scoping period. Any scoping

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Las 

Vegas RMP was approved on October 5, 

1998. The BLM Utility Corridor in the 

vicinity of Indian Springs (see Map 2–

4 of Volume II of the Las Vegas RMP) 

was established along an existing power 

line. The existing BLM Utility Corridor 

is approximately 2,640 feet wide in the 

vicinity of Indian Springs. This halfmile wide utility corridor extends 

northwest from T. 16 S., R. 57 E., sec. 

33, M.D.M. along U.S. Highway 95 to 

the community of Indian Springs where 

the corridor diverges south around 

Indian Springs. Approximately onequarter-mile of the Corridor width 

extends into private property. This RMP 

amendment is intended to relocate 11.4 

miles of the half-mile wide corridor, 

centered on Indian Springs, further 

south behind Grandpa Mountain to 

avoid abutting any private lands.
