of the 936 acres to the DOE and to 

protect DOE’s ancillary facilities at the 

DOE’s Crescent Junction Uranium Mill 

Tailings Repository in connection with 

moving the Moab Mill Site uranium mill

Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 184 / Monday, September 22, 2008 / Notices 54613 

segregated from mining and mineral 

leasing. 

Except for existing claims, rights, and 

interests, including oil and gas leases 

that would be retained by the Secretary 

of the Interior, full management, 

jurisdiction, authority, responsibility, 

and liability for all activities conducted 

on the land would be vested in the DOE. 

For a period of 90 days from the date 

of publication of this notice, all persons 

who wish to submit comments, 

suggestions, or objections in connection 

with the proposed action may present 

their views in writing to the BLM Moab 

Field Office Manager, at the address 

noted above. 

Comments, including names and 

street addresses of respondents, and 

records relating to the proposed action 

will be available for public review 

during regular business hours at the 

BLM Moab Field Office at the address 

specified above. Individual respondents 

may request confidentiality. Before 

including your address, phone number, 

e-mail address, or other personal 

identifying information in your 

comment, you should be aware that 

your entire comment—including your 

personal identifying information—may 

be made publicly available at any time. 

While you can ask us in your comment 

to withhold your personal identifying 

information from public review, we 

cannot guarantee that we will be able to 

do so. 

Notice is hereby given that an 

opportunity for a public meeting is 

afforded in connection with the 

proposed withdrawal and transfer of 

jurisdiction. All interested persons who 

desire a public meeting for the purpose 

of being heard on the proposal must 

submit a written request to the BLM 

Moab Field Office at the address 

indicated above within 90 days from the 

date of publication of this notice. If the 

authorized officer determines that a 

public meeting will be held, a notice of 

the time and place will be published in 

the Federal Register at least 30 days 

before the scheduled date of the 

meeting. 

There are no suitable alternatives. 

Rights-of-way or interagency agreements 

are not considered desirable or 

acceptable alternatives. They would not 

protect the BLM from the associated 

liability risks and they would not 

adequately constrain nondiscretionary 

uses that could adversely affect public 

health and safety. 

All potential sites within a reasonable 

vicinity of the Repository were 

evaluated. The preferred site is 

strategically located adjacent to the 

Repository as identified by DOE as the 

optimal location for the ancillary 

facilities. 

This application will be processed in 

accordance with the regulations set 

forth in 43 CFR 2300. 

Authority: 43 CFR 2310.3–1. 

Dated: September 12, 2008.
