SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land

Management, Phoenix Field Office and

to an Operating Plan filed by Cyprus

Miami Mining Corporation (CMMC),

have prepared a Draft Environmental

Impact Statement (DEIS). The DEIS

analyzes the environmental impacts of a

proposed mining operation expansion,

northwest of Miami, Arizona in Gila

County. The Operating Plan proposal

includes the development of three leach

pad facilities, one waste rock disposal

site, and associated facilities including

access and utility corridors. The DEIS

analyzes three alternatives in detail—

the Proposed Action, Alternative A—

Modified Development Sequence

(Agency Preferred Alternative), and No

Action. In summary, the DEIS (1)

assesses the environmental impacts of

the proposed expansion as described in

the Proposed Action, Alternative A

(Agency Preferred Alternative), and the

No Action Alternative; (2) determines if

there are beneficial, adverse, direct,

indirect and cumulative impacts; and

(3) identifies necessary mitigative

measures. This DEIS was prepared to

comply with the Council on

Environmental Quality’s regulations (40

CFR parts 1500–1508) for implementing

the National Environmental Policy Act

of 1969, 43 U.S.C.

ADDRESSES: Written comments and
