16424 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 59 / Friday, March 27, 2015 / Notices 

Under the No Action Alternative in 

the Final EIS, the proposed lease and 

mine plan modifications and special use 

authorizations would not be approved, 

and mining would continue under the 

current mine plan as approved by the 

2008 RODs. Under the No Action 

Alternative, Simplot estimates that 

approximately 50 percent of the 

phosphate ore in Panel G, previously 

considered economically recoverable, 

would not be mined but the overall 

disturbance would remain unchanged 

from the 2008 mine plan approval. In 

addition, the proposed conveyor system 

would not be approved, thus no new 

disturbance associated with the 

conveyor would occur. The previously 

approved geologic store and release 

cover would be used to limit or prevent 

the release of contaminants to the 

environment. 

A Notice of Intent (NOI) to prepare 

this EIS was published in the Federal 

Register on June 24, 2013. Publication 

of the NOI in the Federal Register 

initiated a 30-day public scoping period 

for the Proposed Action that provided 

for acceptance of written comments. 

The scoping process identified concerns 

that primarily involved impacts to water 

resources and watersheds, and selenium 

contamination, but also included 

potential effects and/or cumulative 

effects of the proposed project on IRAs, 

wetlands, climate change, 

socioeconomics, visual resources, and 

mitigation and monitoring for mine 

operations. 

The NOA for the Draft EIS was 

published in the Federal Register on 

May 30, 2014. A 45-day comment 

period on the Draft EIS commenced 

with publication of the Environmental 

Protection Agency’s NOA of the Draft 

EIS, and ended on July 15, 2014. 

Agencies, organizations, and interested 

parties provided comments on the Draft 

EIS via mail, email, and public 

meetings. A total of seven comment 

letters were received. In developing 

responses to these comments, the 

agencies have added mitigation features 

to the Proposed Action and Alternatives 

1 and 2 in the Final EIS, for example: 

• An Adaptive Management Plan was 

added as an appendix, which addresses 

potential surface water and groundwater 

quality issues through an adaptive 

approach. 

• A fourth wildlife crossing was 

incorporated into the design of the ore 

conveyor system at the Sage Creek 

drainage. 

• Access to a series of proposed 

stormwater ponds at Panel G was 

revised to be south from the mine rather 

than north from the Wells Canyon Road, 

eliminating a segment of access road 

that would have impacted a small 

wetland area. 

• Because the segment of access road 

to the proposed series of stormwater 

ponds was eliminated, disturbance and 

associated impacts to waters of the U.S., 

including wetlands, were eliminated. 

Therefore, a revised U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers permit would not be required. 

• Additional water quality data were 

added to the Final EIS. 

• Specific information regarding the 

timing and construction of the GCLL 

was added to the Final EIS. 

The portion of the proposed project 

related to USFS special use 

authorizations for off-lease activities is 

subject to the objection process 

pursuant to 36 CFR 218 Subparts A and 

B. Instructions for filing objections will 

be provided in the legal notice 

published in the newspaper of record 

for the Draft USFS ROD. Objections will 

be accepted only from those who have 

previously submitted specific written 

comments regarding the proposed 

project either during scoping or other 

designated opportunities for public 

comment in accordance with 36 CFR 

218.5(a). Issues raised in objections 

must be based on previously submitted, 

timely, and specific written comments 

regarding the proposed project unless 

based on new information arising after 

designated opportunities. The portion of 

any subsequent decision issued by BLM 

regarding the proposed mine plan and 

lease modifications would be appealable 

under procedures found in 43 CFR 4. 

Please note that public comments and 

information submitted including names, 

street addresses, and email addresses of 

respondents will be available for public 

review and disclosure at the BLM 

Pocatello Field Office during regular 

business hours (8 a.m. to 4 p.m.),

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The BLM 

prepared the WRFO Oil and Gas 

Development Proposed RMP 

Amendment/Final EIS to evaluate and 

amend the current management 

decisions for oil and gas resources 

within the WRFO planning area. The 

current management decisions for oil 

and gas resources are described in the 

White River Record of Decision and 

Approved Resource Management Plan 

(RMP), approved July 1, 1997, as 

amended (1997 WRFO RMP). 

The Proposed RMP Amendment/Final 

EIS addresses public lands and 

resources managed by the WRFO. The 

WRFO planning area includes 

approximately 2.7 million acres of BLM, 

National Park Service, U.S. Forest 

Service, State, and private lands located 

in northwestern Colorado, primarily in 

Rio Blanco County, with additional 

tracts located in Moffat and Garfield 

counties. Within the WRFO planning 

area, the BLM administers 

approximately 1.5 million surface acres 

and 2.2 million acres of Federal 

subsurface mineral estate. Surface 

management decisions made as a result 

of this planning effort will apply only to 

the BLM-administered lands in the 

WRFO planning area. The BLM decided 

to update the 1997 WRFO RMP because 

the 2007 Reasonable Foreseeable 

Development Scenario identified 

substantial changes in the way oil and 

gas development is expected to proceed 

in the planning area compared to what 

was considered in the 1997 WRFO RMP. 

Changes include an increase in the 

number of wells to be drilled, a 

transition from single well pads to 

multi-well pads, and a shift in the 

location of development to the 

Mesaverde Play Area. 

The purpose of the WRFO Proposed 

RMP Amendment/Final EIS is to 

provide effective management direction 

for public lands administered by the 

WRFO based on an analysis of oil and 

gas exploration and development 

activities in excess of levels evaluated in 

the 1997 WRFO RMP. During the 

development of the RMP Amendment, 

the BLM reviewed the decisions 

contained in the 1997 WRFO RMP. 

None of the alternatives analyzed for 

this amendment considered the creation 

of new special designations or changes 

to areas currently open or closed to oil 

and gas leasing in the 1997 WRFO 

approved RMP because this amendment 

is entirely focused on addressing oil and 

gas development. 

The Draft RMP Amendment/EIS 

evaluated four alternatives in detail 

including, the No Action Alternative 

(Alternative A) and three action 

alternatives (Alternatives B, C and D). 

Based on the impacts analysis and 

public comment on the Draft RMP 

Amendment, the BLM selected various 

parts of Alternatives A, B, C and D to 

develop the Proposed RMP Amendment 

(Alternative E) in the Final EIS. 

The Proposed RMP Amendment, 

Alternative E, considers impacts and 

management actions associated with 

potential development of 15,040 wells 

on 1,100 well pads with an associated 

surface disturbance of 13,200 acres. 

Alternative E incorporates the managed 

development approach from 

Alternatives B and C. The Proposed 

RMP Amendment includes the Dinosaur 

Trail Master Leasing Plan in the 

northwest corner of the field office and 

a plan for phased leasing within that 

area. 

The Proposed RMP Amendment also 

provides management direction for 

more than 300,000 acres of inventoried 

lands with wilderness characteristics; 

these areas would be managed at one of 

three levels depending upon whether or 

not wilderness characteristics were the 

primary management focus in an area. 

Because this planning effort is an 

amendment and not a full RMP revision, 

changes in management were limited to 

only those decisions related to oil and 

gas development. However, because oil 

and gas development has the potential 

to impact other resources, the BLM 

developed management actions 

designed to reduce impacts to a variety 

of resources, including air and water 

quality, soils, vegetation, wildlife 

habitat, special status plant habitat, wild 

horses, cultural resources, 

paleontological resources, visual 

resources, forestry and woodlands, 

livestock grazing, minerals, recreation, 

travel management, realty, and special 

designations.

Development Proposed RMP 

Amendment/Final EIS are available for 

public inspection at the Web site listed 

under the ADDRESSES section, and at the 

following locations:

COMMISSION 

[Investigation Nos. 704–TA–1 and 734–TA– 

1 (Review)] 

Sugar from Mexico; Determinations 

On the basis of the record 1 developed 

in the subject reviews, the United States 

International Trade Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) determines, pursuant 

to sections 704(h) and 734(h) of the 

Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671c(h) 

and 1673c(h)) (‘‘the Act’’), that 

agreements the U.S. Department of 

Commerce (‘‘Commerce’’) has entered 

into with Mexican exporters of sugar 

and the government of Mexico 

suspending antidumping and 

countervailing duty investigations 

concerning sugar from Mexico eliminate 

completely the injurious effect of 

subject imports.2

Background 

The Commission instituted these 

investigations effective January 8, 2015, 

following receipt of a petition filed with 

the Commission by Imperial Sugar 

Company (‘‘Imperial’’), Sugar Land, 

Texas and AmCane Sugar LLC 

(‘‘AmCane’’), Taylor, Michigan. The 

Commission determined that Imperial 

and AmCane are interested parties who 

were parties to the underlying 

investigations at the time the petitions 

were filed, and consequently are 

appropriate petitioning parties. Notice 

of the scheduling of these reviews and 

of a public oral presentation to be held 

in connection therewith was given by 

posting copies of the notice in the Office 

of the Secretary, U.S. International 

Trade Commission, Washington, DC, 

and by publishing the notice in the 

Federal Register on January 26, 2015 

(80 FR 3977). The oral presentation was 

held in Washington, DC, on February 

19, 2015, and all persons who requested 

the opportunity were permitted to 

appear in person or by counsel. 

The Commission completed and filed 

its determination in these reviews on 

March 24, 2015. The views of the 

Commission are contained in USITC 

Publication 4523 (April 2015), entitled 

Sugar From Mexico: Investigation Nos. 

704–TA–1 and 734–TA–1 (Review). 

By order of the Commission.
