Calculating Small Area FMRs Using 

Rent Distributions 

HUD has developed guidance on how 

to provide data-supported comments on 

Small Area FMRs using HUD’s special 

tabulations of the distribution of gross 

rents by unit bedroom count for ZIP 

Code Tabulation Areas. This guidance is 

available at https://www.huduser.gov/ 

portal/datasets/fmr.html in the FY 2022 

FMR section under the ‘‘Documents’’ 

tab and should be used by interested 

parties in commenting on whether or 

not the level of Small Area FMRs are too 

high or too low (i.e., Small Area FMRs 

that are larger than the gross rent 

necessary to make 40 percent of the 

units accessible for an individual zip 

code or that are smaller than the gross 

rent necessary to make 40 percent of the 

units accessible for a given zip code). 

HUD will post revised Small Area FMRs 

after confirming commenters’ 

calculations. 

VI. Environmental Impact 

This Notice involves the 

establishment of FMR schedules, which 

do not constitute a development 

decision affecting the physical 

condition of specific project areas or 

building sites. Accordingly, under 24 

CFR 50.19(c)(6), this Notice is 

categorically excluded from 

environmental review under the 

National Environmental Policy Act of 

1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321). 

Accordingly, the Fair Market Rent 

Schedules, which will not be codified in 

24 CFR part 888, are available at https:// 

www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/ 

fmr.html.

Schedule B—General Explanatory Notes 

Arrangement of FMR Areas and 

Identification of Constituent Parts 

a. The Metropolitan and NonMetropolitan FMR Area Schedule lists 

FMRs alphabetically by state, by 

metropolitan area and by nonmetropolitan county within each state 

and are available at https://

www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/ 

fmr.html. 

b. The schedule lists the constituent 

counties (and New England towns and 

cities) included in each metropolitan 

FMR area immediately following the 

listings of the FMR dollar amounts. All 

constituent parts of a metropolitan FMR 

area that are in more than one state can 

be identified by consulting the listings 

for each applicable state. 

c. The schedule lists two nonmetropolitan counties alphabetically on 

each line of the non-metropolitan 

county listings. 

d. Similarly, the schedule lists the 

New England towns and cities included 

in a non-metropolitan county 

immediately following the county name.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

document provides notice that the BLM 

EYDO, Ely, Nevada, has published a 

Final EIS for the Robinson Mine Plan of 

Operations Amendment project. The 

Robinson Mine is an 8,887-acre copper 

mining operation adjacent to Ruth, 

Nevada, seven miles west of Ely, 

Nevada, via U.S. Route 50. 

KGHM Robinson Nevada Mining 

Company (KGHM Robinson) is 

proposing additional development at 

the Robinson Mine to extend mine life 

approximately four additional years 

beyond its currently anticipated 

permanent closure in 2024. To 

accomplish this, the company is 

proposing renewed mining in the 

eastern portions of its privately-owned 

Liberty Pit and an authorization by the 

BLM to access and develop two specific 

areas of nearby BLM-managed public 

land on which to dispose newly 

generated waste rock. 

Under the BLM Preferred Alternative, 

KGHM Robinson would be permitted to 

develop approximately 260 acres of 

BLM-managed lands immediately south 

of the Robinson Mine to serve as the 

King Waste Rock Dump. This alternative 

would also include renewed dewatering 

and expanded mining operations in the 

eastern portions of KGHM Robinson’s 

privately owned Liberty Pit area as well 

as approval to develop approximately 

545 acres of BLM-managed land and 94 

acres of private land adjacent to the 

Giroux Wash Tailings Storage Facility 

(TSF). These areas would be used for 

obtaining borrow material for the 

previously approved increase in height 

of the TSF main impoundment and 

perimeter dams, as well as for growth 

media (i.e., topsoil) storage for final 

reclamation. Approval of this alternative 

would result in an additional 793 acres 

of new disturbance on BLM-managed 

lands as well as disturbance on 

approximately 170 acres of KGHM 

Robinson-owned private lands, for a 

total of 963 acres of new surface 

disturbance. Active life of the Robinson 

Mine would be extended to 2028. The 

resource impacts for Alternative B were 

considered the most environmentally 

preferred when compared to impacts 

associated with cultural resources, 

geochemistry and groundwater, waste 

rock dump construction, and Greater 

sage-grouse habitat under other 

alternatives. 

Under the No Action Alternative 

(Alternative A) the BLM would not 

approve the 2019 Robinson Mine Plan 

of Operations Amendment as written. 

Although KGHM Robinson could 

continue mining on its own private 

lands, no additional expansion onto 

BLM-managed public lands would be 

permitted. Without additional areas on 

which to dispose waste rock generated 

by continued mining, or the ability to 

obtain substantial additional volumes of 

soil to use in increasing the height of the 

primary impoundment and perimeter
