DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

Minerals Management Service

Preparation of an Environmental

Assessment for Proposed Lease Sale

182 in the Central Gulf of Mexico (2002)

AGENCY: Minerals Management Service.

ACTION: Preparation of an environmental

assessment.

SUMMARY: The Minerals Management

Service (MMS) is beginning preparation

of an environmental assessment (EA) for

proposed lease Sale 182 (scheduled for

March 2002) in the Central Gulf of

Mexico Planning Area. In August 1996,

MMS issued a Call for Information and

Nominations/Notice of Intent to Prepare

an EIS (Call/NOI) for the five proposed

Central Gulf of Mexico sales in the

current 5-year leasing program. In 1997,

MMS prepared a single environmental

impact statement (EIS) for all five sales.

The multisale Final EIS, filed in

November 1997, included an analysis of

a single, ‘‘typical’’ sale, and a

cumulative analysis that included the

effects of holding all five sales, as well

as the cumulative effects of the longterm development of the planning area.

The MMS stated in the EIS that an EA

would be prepared for each lease sale

after the first sale covered in the EIS

(Sale 169).

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: The

preparation of this EA is the first step

in the prelease decision process for Sale

182. The proposal and alternatives for

Sale 182 were identified by the Director

of MMS in November 1996 following

the Call/NOI and were analyzed in the

Central Gulf multisale EIS, which is

available from the Gulf of Mexico OCS

Region’s Public Information Office at 1–

800–200–GULF. The proposed action

analyzed in the multisale EIS was the

offering of all available unleased acreage

in the Central Gulf of Mexico Planning

Area. The EA will also analyze

alternatives to defer blocks south and

within 15 miles of Baldwin County,

Alabama, and to defer blocks containing

topographic features with sensitive

biological resources, as well as the no

action alternative. The analysis in the

EA will reexamine the potential

environmental effects of the proposal

and alternatives based on any new

information regarding potential impacts

and issues that was not available at the

time the Final EIS was prepared.
