SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

Los Alamos National Laboratory

(LANL) is located in north-central New

Mexico, 60 miles north-northeast of

Albuquerque, 25 miles northwest of

Santa Fe, and 20 miles southwest of

Espan ̃ ola in Los Alamos and Santa Fe

Counties. It is located between the

Jemez Mountains to the west and the

Sangre de Cristo Mountains and Rio

Grande to the east. LANL occupies an

area of approximately 27,832 acres or

approximately 43 square miles and is

operated for DOE by a contractor, the

University of California. It is a

multidisciplinary, multipurpose

institution engaged in theoretical and

experimental research and

development. LANL has mission

responsibilities in national security,

energy resources, environmental

quality, and science.

Section 632 of the Departments of

Commerce, Justice, and State, the

Judiciary, and Related Agencies

Appropriations Act, 1998, Public Law

(P.L.) 105–119, enacted November 26,

1997, established certain actions and

reports to be completed by the DOE. It

requires that the Secretary of Energy

(Secretary) take certain actions with

respect to the conveyance of certain

suitable tracts of land at or in the

vicinity of LANL, which are under the

jurisdiction or administrative control of

the Secretary, to the Incorporated

County of Los Alamos, or their designee

in fee title, and that administrative

jurisdiction over certain other of these

tracts be transferred to the Secretary of

the Interior in trust for the Pueblo of San

Ildefonso. The legislation provides that

the purpose of these conveyances and

transfers is to fulfill the obligations of

the United States with respect to LANL

under sections 91 and 94 of the Atomic

Energy Community Act of 1955 (42

U.S.C. 2391, 2394). Upon completion of

these conveyances and transfers, the

legislation also directs that the Secretary

shall make no further payments with

respect to LANL under sections 91 or 94

of the Atomic Energy Community Act of

1955.

The Secretary is required to undertake

the preliminary identification of parcels

of land under the jurisdiction or

administrative control of the Secretary

or in the vicinity of LANL for

conveyance or transfer. The criteria

established in Public Law 105–119 for

land to be considered as being suitable

for conveyance or transfer is that it is:

(1) not required to meet the national

security mission of the DOE or will not

be required for that purpose before the

end of a 10-year period beginning on the

date of enactment of the law; (2) likely

to be conveyable or transferable, as the

case may be, not later than the end of

such period; and (3) suitable for use

either for historic, cultural, or

environmental preservation purposes,

for economic diversification purposes,

or for community self-sufficiency

purposes.

The Secretary of Energy has

completed the preliminary

identification of such parcels of land

considered to be suitable and a report to

Congress on this action was submitted

in April 1998. The report, entitled Land

Transfer, A Preliminary Identification of

Parcels of Land in Los Alamos, New

Mexico for Conveyance or Transfer,

summarizes, for each of nine parcels

identified for potential conveyance or

transfer, the tract’s location, size,

boundaries, historical DOE use, existing

use, functional support of LANL’s

mission, urban infrastructure present,

known environmental and cultural

issues associated with the tracts,

economic potential, and estimated DOE

preparation costs prior to transfer. The

report includes maps of parcels with

pertinent physical features (such as

roads, topography, buildings, fences and

major utility corridors). The total

acreage of the tracts being considered

for transfer is about 4,646 acres (roughly

equal to about 16 percent of the DOEcontrolled land in the LANL area).

About 3,000 acres are located within

Santa Fe County and about 1,646 acres

are located within Los Alamos County.

The nine parcels identified in the report

are as follows:

1. The Technical Area (TA) 21 Tract

consists of approximately 243.8 acres

and is located east of the Los Alamos

Townsite. This occupied site is remote

from the main LANL area. Relocation of

operations and site workers would need

to take place.

2. The DP Road (North, South and

West) Tract consists of 49.8 acres. It is

generally undeveloped except for the

West section where the LANL Archives

are currently located.

3. The DOE Los Alamos Area Office

Site Tract consists of 12.9 acres. It is

also within the Los Alamos Townsite
25024 Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 87 /Wednesday, May 6, 1998 / Notices

and is readily usable. Relocation of site

employees would need to take place.

4. The Airport Tract consists of 198

acres. Located east of the Los Alamos

Townsite, it is close to the East Gate

Business park.

5. The White Rock Site Tract consists

of 98.7 acres. It is undeveloped except

for utility lines and a water pump

station.

6. Rendija Canyon Site Tract consists

of 908.7 acres. The canyon is

undeveloped except for the shooting

range that serves the local community

and is currently under lease from the

DOE to the community.

7. The White Rock Y Site Tract

consists of 435.1 acres. It is

undeveloped and is associated with the

major transportation routes connecting

Los Alamos with northern New Mexico.

8. Two miscellaneous sites, Site 22

and The Manhattan Monument Site,

consist of 0.27 acres. Site 22 is a small,

Townsite parcel located on the edge of

the mesa overlooking Los Alamos

Canyon. The Manhattan site is a small,

rectangular site located within Los

Alamos County land and adjacent to

Ashley Pond where most of the first

Laboratory work was conducted.

9. The TA–74 Site Tract consists of

2,698.4 acres. It is a large, remote site

located east of the Los Alamos

Townsite. This parcel was restored to

the public domain by Presidential

Proclamation 3539 on May 27, 1963.

Because it is public domain land,

additional legislative action may be

required to transfer it out of Federal

government control.

A copy of the report may be obtained

from Mr. Dennis Martinez, U.S.

Office, 528 35th Street, Los Alamos,

New Mexico, 87544, telephone (505)

The Role of the Conveyance and

Transfer EIS in the DOE NEPA

Compliance Strategy

The Conveyance and Transfer EIS will

be prepared pursuant to the National

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of

1969, (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), the

Council on Environmental Quality’s

(CEQ) NEPA regulations (40 CFR Parts

1500–1508), and the DOE NEPA

regulations (10 CFR Part 1021). The

purpose of this EIS is to provide DOE

decisionmakers and stakeholders with

information on the projected

environmental impacts that would

result from the proposed conveyance

and transfer of certain land tracts to the

County and to the Pueblo respectively,

as prescribed by Congress in P.L. 105–

119, for the following future uses: (1)

historic, cultural, or environmental

preservation, (2) economic

diversification, or (3) community selfsufficiency. Specific future land uses

associated with each broad use category

will be established through consultation

with the recipient parties.

The EIS will provide an analysis of

any reasonable alternatives identified

through public scoping. The EIS will

provide a baseline for DOE to use as a

basis of comparison for environmental

effects of proposed future changes in

programs and activities, and could be a

tiering (reference) document for future

NEPA analysis of agency plans,

functions, programs, and resource

utilization.

Proposed Action and Alternatives

The proposed action is to convey and

transfer land that is not required to meet

the national security mission of DOE or

will not be required for that purpose

within the next 10 years. An alternative

under consideration is the Conveyance

and Transfer of All Tracts Alternative,

which would be to convey and transfer

to the County and/or the Pueblo all of

the land identified. Another alternative,

the Partial Conveyance and Transfer of

Tracts Alternative, would involve the

conveyance and transfer of most of the

tracts with the retention by DOE of any

land that cannot be cleaned up within

the next 10 years. As information is

obtained through the analysis process,

the Partial Conveyance and Transfer of

Tracts Alternative may be refined and

analyzed thoroughly or it may be

eliminated from detailed analysis. Each

alternative would analyze the impacts of

up to three potential uses of land

depending on information on the

intended use provided by the County

and Pueblo. The following future uses

could be analyzed for each land tract:

(1) historic, cultural, or environmental

preservation purposes, (2) economic

diversification purposes, or (3)

community self-sufficiency purposes.

Follow-on actions involving the

relocation of current tenants will be

analyzed to the extent that the

information is available. As required by

the CEQ NEPA regulations, a No Action

alternative will also be evaluated. The

No Action alternative would be to

continue the current use of the land

tracts without the conveyance or

transfer of any of the tracts to the

identified parties.

Potential Issues for Analysis

Issues tentatively identified for

analysis in this EIS include the

socioeconomic impacts of development

of the land tracts and their subsequent

use; potential impacts to protected

threatened, endangered, or sensitive

species of animal or plants, or their

critical habitat; potential impacts to

cultural or historic resources; potential

human health impacts to site occupants

and the general public; potential effects

on air, soil, and water quality from

development and cleanup of the subject

parcels and subsequent anticipated

uses; potential irreversible and

irretrievable commitment of resources,

including the ultimate loss of LANL

lands and land occupied and used as a

result of conveyance and transfer

actions; potential effects on members of

the public, including minority and lowincome populations from the

development of the subject parcels and

subsequent anticipated uses; and

cumulative environmental impacts

related to past, present and future

development of the land and actions

anticipated by neighboring land

managers.

Related NEPA Reviews

Following is a summary of recent

NEPA documents that may be

considered in the preparation of this EIS

and from which this EIS may be tiered.

The Conveyance and Transfer EIS will

include relevant information from each

of these documents.

The Los Alamos National Laboratory

(LANL) Draft Site-Wide Environmental

Impact Statement (SWEIS) (DOE/EIS–

0238) (in preparation). The Draft SWEIS

analyzes four levels of operations

alternatives for LANL to meet its

existing and potential future program

assignments: the No Action Alternative,

the Expanded Operations Alternative,

the Reduced Operations Alternative,

and the Greener Alternative. The SWEIS

also provides project specific analysis

for two proposed projects: the

Expansion of TA–54/Area G Low Level

Waste Disposal Area; and Enhancement

of Plutonium Pit Manufacturing. The

SWEIS does not analyze changing the

size or configuration of the LANL

reserve through land conveyance or

transfer.

The DP Road Tract EA (DOE/EA–

1184) analyzed the proposed transfer of

28 acres of land located along the south

side of DP Road next to the Los Alamos

Townsite. The property is currently part

of LANL’s TA–21 and has been used

most recently as a vacant buffer area.

Previous uses of the tract include use of

part of the tract as a mobile home park

and playground. Portions of the tract are

now wooded with mixed saplings and

mature trees; the portion of the tract

contiguous with DP Road is covered

with native grasses and broadleaf plants.

Should this land tract be transferred to

the County, the County has indicated
Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 87 /Wednesday, May 6, 1998 / Notices 25025

that its preferred use of the land tract

would be to develop the property within

5 to 10 years for its own use with the

construction of a new office building to

house County employees, paved parking

areas, and new warehouses, garages, and

support buildings for the transfer of the

school bus yard, equipment

maintenance, and school supply

warehousing activities to the site. A

maximum of about 800 employees

would be expected to occupy the site. A

Finding of No Significant Impact

(FONSI) was issued on January 23,

1997, although no action has yet taken

place.

The Research Park EA (DOE/EA–

1212) analyzed the proposed lease of

about 60 acres of land located next to

the main administration portion of

LANL, at the edges of TA–3 and TA–62.

The property is currently a combination

of wooded land and land used for

parking lots. This tract is bounded in

general by Diamond Drive on the east,

West Jemez Road on the south, West

Road on the west, and Los Alamos

Canyon on the north. The land would be

leased to the County to establish a

research park. The term of the lease is

expected to be 55 years with options for

renewal depending upon final

agreements between the County and

DOE. The tract of land would be

developed by the County or third parties

within 5 to 10 years of the date of the

lease. Research parks are professional

developments that allow a wide range of

companies to work within the same

geographic location and to benefit from

a well-planned environment suited to

business needs. The County

recommended that the type of research

park best suited for Los Alamos would

include freestanding buildings with

landscaping and a possible atrium

arrangement between related structures.

About 10 buildings are planned for the

research park and about 1,500

employees would be expected to occupy

the site. A FONSI was issued on October

8, 1997, although no action has yet

taken place.

Scoping Process

The scoping process is an opportunity

for the public to assist the DOE in

determining the alternatives and issues

for analysis. The purpose of the scoping

meetings is to receive oral and written

comments from the public. The

meetings will use a format to facilitate

dialogue between DOE and the public

and will be an opportunity for

individuals to provide written or oral

statements. DOE welcomes specific

comments or suggestions on the content

of these alternatives, or on other

alternatives that could be considered.

The above list of issues to be considered

in the EIS analysis is tentative and is

intended to facilitate public comment

on the scope of this EIS. It is not

intended to be all-inclusive, nor does it

imply any predetermination of potential

impacts. The Conveyance and Transfer

EIS will describe the potential

environmental impacts of the

alternatives, using available data where

possible and obtaining additional data

where necessary. Copies of written

comments and transcripts of oral

comments will be available at the

following locations: Los Alamos

Outreach Center, 1350 Central Avenue,

Suite 101, Los Alamos, New Mexico,
