SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Calnev 

Pipe Line, LLC (Calnev) has submitted 

a right-of-way (ROW) application to the 

BLM to construct, operate, maintain, 

and decommission a petroleum pipeline 

known as the Calnev Pipeline 

Expansion Project in San Bernardino 

County, California and Clark County, 

Nevada. The proposed project site 

encompasses approximately 2,841 acres 

of land under multiple jurisdictions: 

Private, County, or Municipal—1,398 

acres; California State Lands 

Commission—14 acres; Department of 

Defense—86 acres; San Bernardino 

National Forest—104 acres; BLM—1,329 

acres. The project site is generally 

located adjacent to two existing Calnev 

pipelines except where it may deviate 

from those pipelines to avoid the 

Mojave National Preserve. The project 

will consist of approximately 235 miles 

of 16-inch diameter pipe (approximately 

half is on BLM lands), a new pump 

station near Baker, California, a 3-mile 

lateral pipeline from the Bracken 

junction to McCarran International 

Airport, and new or modified 

connections to new or modified laterals, 

valves, and ancillary facilities. Calnev is 

required to obtain a Revised Franchise 

Agreement from the County of San 

Bernardino. 

The BLM and San Bernardino County 

are conducting a joint EIS/EIR for the 

Calnev Pipeline Expansion Project on 

BLM-managed land. The BLM’s purpose 

and need for the Project is to respond to 

Calnev’s application for a ROW grant. 

The BLM will decide whether to 

approve, approve with modification, or 

deny issuance of a ROW grant to Calnev 

for the proposed Calnev Pipeline 

Expansion Project. The BLM will 

analyze the following alternatives: 

Alternative 1 (the Proposed Action), 

Alternative 2 (Modified Route 

Alternative), Alternative 3 (the AgencyPreferred Alternative which avoids the 

Mojave National Preserve), and the No 

Project/No Action Alternative.

Since approval of any of the action 

alternatives would require amendment 

of the BLM’s California Desert 

Conservation Area Plan, the plan 

amendment process will be integrated 

with the NEPA process as part of the 

EIS/EIR. 

The BLM will use the NEPA process 

to satisfy the public involvement 

requirement for Section 106 of the 

National Historic Preservation Act 

(NHPA) (16 U.S.C. 470(f)) as provided in 

36 CFR 800.2(d)(3). Native American 

Tribal consultations are being 

conducted in accordance with Section 

106 of the NHPA, BLM, and Department 

of the Interior policy, and Tribal 

concerns will be given due 

consideration, including impacts on 

Indian trust assets. 

The Draft EIS/EIR evaluates the 

potential impacts on air quality, 

biological resources, cultural resources, 

geological resources and hazards, land 

use, noise, paleontological resources, 

public health, socioeconomics, soils, 

traffic and transportation, visual 

resources, wilderness characteristics, 

and other resources. A Notice of Intent 

to prepare an EIS/EIR for the Calnev 

Pipeline Expansion Project was 

published in the Federal Register 

(73 FR 13558) on Thursday, March 13, 

2008. The BLM and San Bernardino 

County held five public scoping 

meetings: Rialto, California on April 1, 

April 30, and June 18, 2008; Victorville, 

California on April 2, 2008; and Las 

Vegas, Nevada on April 3, 2008. The 

formal scoping period ended on July 1, 

2008. Issues and concerns raised during 

the scoping period involved impacts to 

visual resources, health and safety and 

natural resources. 

Please note that public comments and
