Notice of Availability of the Final 

Supplemental Environmental Impact 

Statement for the Alpine Satellite 

Development Plan for the Proposed 

Greater Mooses Tooth Unit 

Development Project, Alaska 

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice of Availability. 

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land 

Management (BLM), Alaska State Office, 

is issuing the Final Supplemental 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) 

for the Alpine Satellite Development 

Plan for the Proposed Greater Mooses 

Tooth (GMT) Unit Development Project, 

Alaska. Pursuant to 40 CFR 1502.9(c), 

the Supplemental EIS has been prepared 

to supplement the Alpine Satellite 

Development Plan (ASDP) Final EIS, 

dated September 2004, regarding the 

establishment of satellite oil production 

pads and associated infrastructure 

within the Alpine field. 

DATES: The Final Supplemental EIS is 

available to the public. The BLM will 

not issue a Record of Decision (ROD) 

until at least 30 days after the 

Environmental Protection Agency’s 

publication of a Notice of Availability of 

this document in the Federal Register. 

ADDRESSES: Requests for information 

regarding the Final Supplemental EIS 

may be mailed to: GMT1 Supplemental 

EIS, Attn: Bridget Psarianos, 222 West 

7th Avenue, #13 Anchorage, AK 99513– 

7504. The Final Supplemental EIS is 

available on the BLM-Alaska Web site at 

http://www.blm.gov/ak/gmt. CD or 

paper copies may be requested by 

calling Bridget Psarianos, BLM’s project 

lead at 907–271–4208 or Serena Sweet, 

Planning Supervisor, at 907–271–4543. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Bridget Psarianos or Serena Sweet, BLM 

Alaska State Office, 907–271–4208 and 

907–271–4543, respectively. Persons 

who use a telecommunications device 

for the deaf (TDD) may call the Federal 

Information Relay Service (FIRS) at 1– 

800–877–8339 to contact the above 

individuals during normal business 

hours. The FIRS is available 24 hours a 

day, seven days a week, to leave a 

message or question with the above 

individuals. You will receive a reply 

during normal business hours. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The ASDP 

Supplemental EIS analyzes an 

application by ConocoPhillips, Alaska, 

Inc. (CPAI) for issuance of a right-of-way 

grant and related authorizations to 

construct, operate, and maintain a drill 

site, access road, pipelines, and 

ancillary facilities to support 

development of petroleum resources at 

the Greater Mooses Tooth Unit #1 

(GMT1) drill site within the National 

Petroleum Reserve in Alaska (NPR–A). 

The BLM manages the surface and 

subsurface at the proposed drill site and 

a majority of the proposed infield road 

and pipeline route is on BLM-managed 

lands. The GMT1 drill site would access 

subsurface minerals of the Arctic Slope 

Regional Corporation and the BLM. The 

proposed GMT1 site is approximately 

14 miles west of the CPAI-operated 

Alpine Central Processing Facility (CD– 

1). The proposed drill site would be 

operated and maintained by Alpine staff 

and supported using CD–1 

infrastructure. 

The Supplemental EIS will result in a 

ROD that will approve, deny, or approve 

with modification, CPAI’s application, 

as well as incorporate any additional 

mitigation measures that may be 

relevant. The Draft Supplemental EIS, 

published in February 2014, did not 

identify a Preferred Alternative, because 

the BLM did not have one at that time. 

The Final Supplemental EIS identifies 

Alternative B as the BLM’s Preferred 

Alternative. The Final Supplemental 

EIS also includes Alternative D–2, 

which was not analyzed as a separate 

alternative in the Draft Supplemental 

EIS—but is qualitatively within the 

spectrum of alternatives considered— 

and analyzes impacts of a seasonal 

(winter-only) drilling program at GMT1. 

The key issues in the Final 

Supplemental EIS center on oil and gas 

production decisions, the protection of 

physical, biological, and subsistence 

resources, and the evaluation and 

consideration of appropriate mitigation 

measures. 

Authority: 40 CFR 1502.9, 40 CFR 1506.6, 

43 CFR part 2880.

State Director.
