DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

Central Utah Project Completion Act

AGENCY: Office of the Assistant

Secretary—Water and Science,

Department of the Interior.

ACTION: Notice of termination of a lease

of the power privilege process for the

Diamond Fork Area of the Central Utah

Project.

SUMMARY: The process for non-federal

development of hydroelectric power in

the Diamond Fork area was established

through a Federal Register Notice (FRN)

published December 19, 1994. The FRN

announced the Department of Interior’s

(Interior) intent to issue a lease of power

privilege in the Diamond Fork area,

Utah.

The FRN presented background

information, proposal content

guidelines, information concerning the

selection of a non-federal entity to

develop hydroelectric power in the

Diamond Fork area, and power

purchasing and/or marketing

considerations. The FRN also

established a deadline for a potential

lessee to enter into a lease with the

United States as 5 years after

notification of the selection of a

potential lessee.

On May 1, 1995, two proposals were

received in response to the FRN that

specifically focused on CUP Diamond

Fork System facilities. One proposal

was submitted by the Western States

Power Corporation and another by a

joint partnership of the Strawberry

Water Users Association (SWUA) and

the Central Utah Water Conservancy

District (CUWCD). The proposals were

reviewed, and a recommendation was

made, by a team consisting of

individuals from the Bureau of

Reclamation, Western Area Power

Administration, Bonneville Power

Administration, and the Army Corps of

Engineers.

On May 1, 1996, Interior made

notification of the selection of SWUA/

CUWCD as the successful potential joint

lessee for the Diamond Fork System

lease of power privilege. This

notification established the deadline for

entering into a lease with the United

States as May 1, 2001.

Since the deadline for entering into a

lease has now passed and a lease has

not been negotiated and executed,

Interior has rescinded the selection of

SWUA/CUWCD as the successful

potential joint lessee and has terminated

this lease of power privilege process for

the Diamond Fork System.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Service has initiated Comprehensive

Conservation Planning for the Lost Trail

National Wildlife Refuge near Marion,

Montana.

Each National Wildlife Refuge has

specific purposes for which it was

established and for which legislation

was enacted. Those purposes are used to

develop and prioritize management

goals and objectives within the National

Wildlife Refuge System mission and to

guide which public uses will occur on

the Refuge. The planning process is a

way for the Service and the public to

evaluate management goals and

objectives for the best possible

conservation efforts of this important

wildlife habitat, while providing for

wildlife-dependent recreation

opportunities that are compatible with

each National Wildlife Refuge’s

establishing purposes and the mission

of the National Wildlife Refuge System.

Lost Trail National Wildlife Refuge

(approximately 9,300 acres) was

established in August, 1999. This

Refuge is located west-southwest of

Kalispell and northwest of the town of

Marion, Montana, in a long valley with

Pleasant Valley Creek flowing south out

of the south. The Refuge also encompass

the 160-acre Dahl Lake, a partially

drained shallow lacustrine system

maintained by several watersheds.

The Service will conduct a

comprehensive planning process that

will provide opportunity for Tribal,

State, and local governments, agencies,

organizations, and the public to

participate in issue scoping and public

comment. The Service is requesting

input for issues, concerns, ideas, and

suggestions for the future management

of Lost Trail National Wildlife Refuge in

northwestern Montana. Anyone

interested in providing input is invited

to respond to the following three

questions.

(1) What makes Lost Trail NWR

special or unique for you?

(2) What problems or issues do you

want to see addressed in the

Comprehensive Conservation Plan?

(3) What improvements would you

recommend for Lost Trail NWR?

The Service has provided the above

questions for your optional use; you are

not required to provide information to

the Service. The Planning Team

developed these questions to facilitate

finding out more information about

individuals issues and ideas concerning

this Refuge. Comments received by the

Planning Team will be used as part of

the planning process; individual

comments will not be referenced in our

reports or directly responded to.

Opportunities will be given to the

public to provide input at open houses

and other public meetings to scope

issues and concerns (schedules can be

obtained from the Planning Team

Leaders at the above addresses).

Comments may also be submitted

anytime during the planning process by

writing to the above addresses. All

information provided voluntarily by

mail, phone, or at public meeting

becomes part of the official public

record (i.e., names, addresses, letters of

comment, input recorded during

meetings). If requested under the

Freedom of Information Act by a private

citizen or organization, the Service may

provide information copies.

The environmental review of this

project will be conducted in accordance

with the requirements of the National

Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as

amended (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), NEPA

Regulations (40 CFR 1500–1508), and
