DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

Minerals Management Service

Preparation of an Environmental

Assessment for Kerr-McGee’s

Proposed Deepwater Development

Plan Offshore Texas (Boomvang

Project)

AGENCY: Minerals Management Service,

Interior.

ACTION: Preparation of an environmental

assessment.

SUMMARY: The Minerals Management

Service (MMS) is preparing an

environmental assessment (EA) for a

proposed deepwater development plan

to develop and produce hydrocarbon

reserves about 114 miles offshore Texas

in East Breaks, Blocks 642, 643, and

688.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Minerals Management Service, Gulf of

Mexico OCS Region, 1201 Elmwood

Park Boulevard, New Orleans, Louisiana

70123–2394, Mr. Alvin Jones, telephone

(504) 736–1713.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This EA

implements the tiering process outlined

in 40 CFR 1502.20, which encourages

agencies to tier environmental

documents, eliminating repetitive

discussions of the same issue. By use of

reference to the most recent Final

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)

for the Gulf of Mexico Western Planning

Area for Lease Sales 171, 174, 177, and

180 and by tiering to related

environmental documents, this EA

concentrates on environmental issues

specific to the proposed action.

The MMS Gulf of Mexico Region

received an Initial Development

Operations Coordination Document

(DOCD) from Kerr-McGee Oil and Gas

Corporation (Kerr-McGee) that proposes

to develop and produce hydrocarbon

reserves located in East Breaks, Blocks

642, 643, and 688. The DOCD was

assigned a plan control number of N–

7077, and the project is referred to as

the Boomvang Project. Kerr-McGee will

complete and produce a total of 10 wells

that were drilled under previouslyapproved Exploration Plans for the

subject blocks. No new drilling

operations are proposed as a part of this

DOCD. All of the wells will share a

common surface location (a truss spar

floating production system) in East

Breaks, Block 643.

The Boomvang truss spar is a manned

floating production facility that will be

permanently anchored on location by a

9-leg, taut catenary system composed of

conventional wire, chain, and anchor

piles. The hull portion of the spar
