SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On September 22, 2020, NV Energy 

filed an Application for Transportation, 

Utility Systems, Telecommunications, 

and Facilities on Federal Lands and 

Property (Standard Form 299) and a 

preliminary Plan of Development (POD) 

with the BLM, for a Federal Land Policy 

and Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA) 

ROW authorization for the Greenlink 

West Project (NVN99863). The 

Greenlink West Project, as proposed, is 

an approximately 474-mile system of 

new 525-kilovolt (kV) and 345-kV 

overhead electric transmission lines and 

includes transmission and distribution 

lines, substations, microwave radio 

facilities, amplifier sites, access roads, 

and construction/material yards. In the 

application to the BLM, NV Energy has 

applied for a 600-foot-wide temporary 

right-of-way (ROW) for construction and 

a 200-foot-wide permanent ROW for 

operations and maintenance of the 525- 

kV line and a 160-foot-wide permanent 

ROW for the 345-kV lines. 

The proposed transmission facilities 

would include approximately 13,767 

acres land of which approximately 

10,438 acres are public lands 

administered by the BLM. The 

remaining lands in the project area are 

managed by the Bureau of Indian 

Affairs, Clark County, Department of 

Defense, Department of Energy, National 

Park Service, Nevada Division of State 

Lands, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 

U.S. Forest Service, and private 

landowners. On March 22, 2021, NV 

Energy received approval for the various 

electric transmission facilities 

associated with the proposed project by 

the Public Utilities Commission of 

Nevada. 

Purpose and Need for the Proposed 

Action 

In compliance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as 

amended (NEPA), and the FLPMA, as 

amended, the BLM NVSO intends to 

prepare an EIS to analyze the 

environmental impacts associated with 

NV Energy’s application seeking to 

obtain a ROW grant for the Greenlink 

West Project. NV Energy’s ROW grant 

may require plan amendments to the 

Carson City District Office, Tonopah 

Field Office, and Southern Nevada 

District Office RMPs, which the BLM 

also will analyze in the EIS. 

Under Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission’s Open Access 

Transmission Tariff adopted in 18 CFR 

35 and 385 Order No. 888, NV Energy 

is required to plan and construct 

adequate transmission facilities to 

deliver the projected electric demand in 

Nevada. The State of Nevada is facing 

unprecedented changes in both system 

growth and resource requirements. By 

2031, about 1,000 megawatts (MW) of 

base load generation are planned for 

retirement, i.e., will no longer be 

generating electricity. In addition, NV 

Energy has received more than 1,450 

MW of new electric service requests in 

northern Nevada that will require 

additional transmission facilities. 

Currently, the maximum amount of 

power that can be provided in northern 

Nevada on the existing transmission 

network is 1,275 MW, and all 1,275 MW 

are being used by current network 

customers. The power demand in 

northern Nevada is forecast to increase 

by more than 700 MW within 10 years. 

New transmission infrastructures are 

required to deliver the anticipated 

electric power demand. The Greenlink 

West Project would alleviate some of the 

capacity issues on existing transmission 

lines, and enhance electric grid 

reliability, by allowing interconnections 

to occur throughout the State. 

The purpose of this Federal action is 

to respond to a ROW application for 

construction, operation, maintenance, 

and decommissioning of proposed 

electrical transmission facilities on 

Federal land. Based on the goals and 

objectives of the Proponent and the 

BLM’s authority, the BLM will evaluate 

the ROW grant application submitted by 

NV Energy in compliance with FLPMA, 

BLM regulations, and other applicable 

Federal laws and policies. The need for 

the BLM’s action arises from FLPMA, 

which establishes a multiple use 

mandate for management of Federal 

lands, including ‘‘systems for 

generation, transmission, and 

distribution of electric energy’’ (FLPMA 

Title V). The BLM’s action in 

considering NV Energy’s ROW 

application is delegated authority of the 

Secretary of the Interior to ‘‘grant issue 

or renew rights of way . . . for 

generation, transmission, and 

distribution of electric energy’’ (43 CFR 

part 2800). 

Preliminary Proposed Action and 

Alternatives 

As described in Greenlink West 

Project’s POD, the proposed 525-kV 

facilities would begin approximately 10 

miles north of Yerington in Lyon 

County, traverse approximately 360 

miles through portions of Lyon, 

Mineral, Esmeralda, Nye, and Clark 

counties, and terminate at the Harry 

Allen Substation approximately 10 

miles north of North Las Vegas, Clark 

County. Three proposed 345-kV 

facilities would begin 10 miles north of 

Yerington in Lyon County and traverse 

through portions of Lyon, Storey, and 

Washoe counties. Two of the 345-kV 

lines would terminate approximately 12 

miles northwest of Silver Springs in 

Lyon County, and the third would 

terminate approximately 7 miles 

southeast of Reno in Washoe County. 

The proposed 345-kV facilities cross 

approximately 10,308 acres of BLMadministered land and 3,712 acres of 

private land. The four expanded 

substations (Comstock Meadows, Mira 

Loma, Fort Churchill, and Harry Allen) 

and the two new substations (Esmeralda 

and Amargosa) for the Greenlink West 

Project would include fiber optic cable 

and microwave antennae towers for 

control and operation of the 

transmission system. 

The Draft EIS will analyze a 

reasonable range of alternatives to be 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
25660 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 84 / Monday, May 2, 2022 / Notices 

fully developed after considering 

information provided during the 

scoping period. Preliminary alternatives 

may include changes to proposed 

facility layouts and ROW segments, 

activity schedules, and seasonal 

operation requirements designed to 

protect resources under BLM 

management while still retaining a 

reliable and feasible electrical 

transmission facilities. Potential 

amendments to RMPs will be identified 

throughout the EIS alternative 

development process. The range of 

alternatives analyzed in the Draft EIS 

will include a no-action alternative. 

Under the no-action alternative, the 

BLM would deny the application, and 

NV Energy electrical transmission 

facilities described in the POD would 

not be built. 

Summary of Expected Impacts 

The Draft EIS will identify and 

describe the effects of the Proposed 

Action on the human environment. 

Based on a preliminary evaluation of 

resources, the BLM expects impacts 

(either beneficial or adverse and of 

varying intensity) to wildlife and their 

habitats, land uses, cultural and 

paleontological resources, visual 

(scenic) resources, military training 

flight paths, and social and economic 

conditions. The BLM will identify, 

analyze, and require on-site mitigation, 

as appropriate, to address the 

reasonably foreseeable impacts to 

resources from approval of this project. 

Mitigation may include avoidance, 

minimization, rectification, reduction, 

or elimination over time, and may be 

considered on multiple scales to address 

the associated impact. 

The disciplines to be represented in 

the preparation of the EIS include, but 

are not limited to: 

• Air quality; 

• Cultural resources; 

• Earth resources (geology, minerals, 

and soils); 

• General and special-status wildlife 

species, including Threatened and 

Endangered Species and their habitat; 

• Health and safety/hazardous 

materials; 

• Land use and recreation; 

• Paleontological resources; 

• Social and economic conditions; 

• Special designations; and 

• Vegetation/riparian/noxious and 

invasive weeds/special status plant 

species, including Threatened and 

Endangered Species and their habitat; 

• Visual (scenic) resources; 

• Water resources; 

• Wilderness, wilderness study areas, 

and lands with wilderness 

characteristics; 

• Wildland fire ecology and 

management. 

Anticipated Permits and Authorizations 

In addition to the requested ROW 

grant, other Federal, state, and local 

authorizations will likely be required for 

the Greenlink West Project. These 

include authorizations under the 

National Historic Preservation Act of 

1966, Endangered Species Act of 1973, 

and other laws and regulations 

determined to be applicable to the 

Greenlink West Project. 

If approved, the BLM would issue a 

ROW Grant and Temporary Use Permit 

for Federal lands. Any portion of the 

Greenlink West Project selected that 

would cross the Tule Springs Fossil Bed 

National Monument, Native American 

Indian reservations, or the HumboldtToiyabe National Forest would require 

permit approval from the National Park 

Service, Bureau of Indian Affairs, or 

U.S. Forest Service, respectively. 

Authorization of this proposal may 

require amendments to the applicable 

RMPs in effect for the Carson City 

District Office, Tonopah Field Office, 

and Southern Nevada District Office to 

modify the location of the existing WestWide Energy Corridors or potentially to 

designate a new energy corridor with an 

associated Visual Resource Management 

class. The West-Wide Energy Corridors 

originated through the Energy Policy 

Act of 2005 (EPAct), enacted August 8, 

2005. The EPAct requires, among other 

things, the designation of energy 

corridors (also referred to as utility 

corridors) on Federal lands in 11 

western states (including Nevada), the 

establishment of procedures to ensure 

that additional corridors are identified 

and designated as necessary, and to 

expedite applications to construct or 

modify electricity transmission and 

distribution facilities. These designated 

corridors are referred to as the WestWide Energy Corridors. Information on 

the West-Wide Energy Corridor and the 

Final EIS and Decision are available at 

http://corridoreis.anl.gov/index.cfm. 

By this notice, the BLM is complying 

with requirements 43 CFR 1610.2(c) to 

notify the public of potential 

amendments to the Carson City District 

Office, Tonopah Field Office, and 

Southern Nevada District Office RMPs. 

If any RMP amendments are necessary, 

the BLM would integrate the resource 

management planning process, as 

described in 43 CFR subpart 1610 and 

36 CFR 219.8, concurrently into the 

NEPA process and EIS for the Greenlink 

West Project. 

Schedule for the Decision-Making 

Process 

The Draft EIS is scheduled for Fall of 

2022 and the Final EIS is scheduled for 

Spring of 2023, with a Record of 

Decision issued Summer of 2023. NV 

Energy then is anticipated to secure all 

necessary authorizations following the 

BLM decision. 

Public Scoping Process 

This notice of intent initiates the 

scoping process, which guides 

development of the EIS. The scoping 

process encourages those who may be 

interested or affected by the Greenlink 

West Project to submit comments on 

resources and issues, impact-causing 

factors, reasonable alternatives and 

potential mitigation measures to be 

analyzed in the EIS. For information on 

how to submit comments, see the 

ADDRESSES section. The BLM will hold 

public scoping meetings; the dates, 

locations, and times will be announced 

at least 15 days in advance through 

public notices, media releases and/or 

mailings. 

The BLM will use the NEPA process 

to satisfy the public involvement 

requirements of Section 106 of the 

National Historic Preservation Act 

(NHPA) (54 U.S.C. 306108) pursuant to 

36 CFR 800.2(d)(3). Information about 

historic and cultural resources within 

the area potentially affected by the 

project will be used to identify and 

evaluate impacts in the context of both 

NEPA and Section 106 of the NHPA. 

Federal agencies, Tribes, State and local 

governments, and other stakeholders 

interested in historic properties and 

cultural resources may request to 

participate in the Section 106 process as 

a Consulting Party. The BLM will 

continue consultation with Tribes on a 

government-to-government basis in 

accordance with Executive Order 13175 

and other policies. Tribal concerns, 

including potential impacts to cultural 

resources and treaty rights will be given 

due consideration. 

You may submit comments in writing 

to the BLM at any public scoping 

meeting or at any time by using one of 

the methods listed in the ADDRESSES

section of this notice. Public scoping 

meetings will be conducted in an openhouse format with BLM staff and 

representatives from NV Energy 

available to explain project details and 

gather information from interested 

individuals or groups. 

Comments must be received prior to 

the close of the scoping period to be 

included in the Draft EIS/Resource 

Management Plan Amendments (EIS/ 

DRMPA). The BLM will provide 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 84 / Monday, May 2, 2022 / Notices 25661 

additional opportunities for public 

participation upon publication of the 

EIS/DRMPA. The public will have the 

opportunity to comment during a 90- 

day public comment period on the EIS/ 

DRMPA. 

Any persons wishing to be added to 

a mailing list of interested parties can 

call or write to the BLM, as described in 

this Notice. Additional information 

meetings may be conducted throughout 

the process to keep the public informed 

of the progress of the EIS. 

Request for Identification of Potential 

Alternatives, Information, and 

Analyses Relevant to the Proposed 

Action 

The BLM encourages comments 

concerning the proposed Greenlink 

West Project, feasible alternatives, 

possible measures to minimize and/or 

avoid adverse environmental impacts, 

and any other information relevant to 

the proposed action. Planning criteria 

are the standards, rules, and other 

factors developed by managers and 

interdisciplinary team members for use 

in forming judgements about decision 

making, analysis, and data collection 

during the planning process. The BLM 

has identified some preliminary 

planning criteria to guide development 

of the RMP amendments, to avoid 

unnecessary data collection and 

analysis, and to ensure the RMP 

amendments are tailored to the issues. 

These criteria may be modified and/or 

other criteria may be identified during 

the public scoping process. The 

following preliminary specific planning 

criteria will help guide the planning 

process. 

Criteria 1: The BLM will use a 

systematic interdisciplinary approach to 

integrate physical, biological, economic, 

and other sciences. 

Criteria 2: The BLM will use the best 

available data regarding natural 

resources. 

Criteria 3: The BLM will consider the 

present and potential uses of public 

lands and where existing RMP decisions 

are valid, those decisions will remain 

unchanged. 

Criteria 4: The BLM will consider the 

relative scarcity of values and 

availability of alternative means and 

sites for recognizing those values. 

Criteria 5: Any plan amendments will 

be completed in compliance with 

FLPMA, NEPA, and all other relevant 

Federal laws, executive orders, and 

BLM polices. 

Criteria 6: The BLM will seek 

coordination and consistency with other 

government programs including Tribal 

plans and policies. 

Criteria 7: Existing valid planning 

decisions for RMPs in effect will not 

change unless specifically amended, 

and any new plan decisions will not 

conflict with existing planning 

decisions. 

Criteria 8: Any RMP amendments will 

recognize valid existing rights. 

The BLM also requests assistance 

with identifying potential alternatives to 

the Proposed Action. As alternatives 

should resolve a problem with the 

Proposed Action, please indicate the 

purpose of the suggested alternative. In 

addition, the BLM requests the 

identification of potential impacts that 

should be analyzed. Impacts should be 

a result of the action; therefore, please 

identify the activity along with the 

potential impact. Information that 

reviewers have that would assist in the 

development of alternatives or analysis 

of resources issues is also helpful. 

Actions not relevant to the Greenlink 

West Project include considerations of 

Areas of Critical Environmental Concern 

for nomination or recommendations. 

Permanent closure of public land to 

hunting, fishing, or recreational 

shooting are also not proposed as part 

of the Greenlink West Project and 

therefore a shooting ‘‘notice of intent’’ is 

not applicable under this Notice.
