SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

LaBarge Platform Project is generally 

located between Townships 26 and 31 

North, Ranges 111 through 114 West, 

6th Principal Meridian, Sublette, and 

Lincoln Counties, Wyoming. The project 

area is located within 3 miles of Big 

Piney, Wyoming, within 1 mile of La 

Barge, Wyoming and 60 miles northwest 

of Rock Springs, Wyoming. The project 

area covers approximately 218,000 acres 

of mixed Federal, State, and private 

lands. The BLM Pinedale Field Office 

and Rock Springs Field Office manage 

the Federal lands in the project area. 

The Pinedale Field Office will serve as 

the lead office. 

The proposed action is in 

conformance with the Pinedale 

Resource Management/Final 

Environmental Impact Statement and 

Record of Decision (ROD), 2008, and the 

Green River Resource Management Plan 

and its ROD, 1997. 

The LaBarge Platform Project is 

located in an area of existing oil and gas 

development, some of which dates back 

to the 1920s. The project area is 

comprised of 70 percent public lands 

administered by the BLM, 5 percent 

lands managed by the State of Wyoming 

and 24 percent private lands. 

Approximately 74 percent of the 

subsurface resources are Federal 

mineral estate. In April 2008, EOG 

submitted to the BLM a proposal to 

expand oil and natural gas exploration 

and development operations that would 

result in further development and 

additional wells in the existing LaBarge 

Platform and East LaBarge fields which 

have been in production since the 

1920s. 

The purpose of the proposed project 

is to explore, extract, and recover oil 

and natural gas. EOG proposes to 

develop up to approximately 605 new 

oil and gas wells from an estimated 455 

well pads as infill, exploratory, or stepout wells to all productive formations 

including but not limited to: Baxter, 

Frontier, and Mesa Verde. Associated 

facilities in the proposal include roads, 

well pads, and gathering pipelines. No 

additional ancillary facilities are 

included as part of the proposal nor 

considered as part of this analysis. 

The estimated life-of-project would be 

about 40–50 years. Depending on the 

geological characteristics of the target 

formation, wells would be drilled using 

a combination of vertical, directional, 

and horizontal drilling techniques. The 

proposal calls for a 10-year construction 

and drilling period. 

A number of other operators within or 

near the EOG project area expect to drill 

and develop approximately 175 natural 

gas wells within the reasonably 

foreseeable future. These possible wells 

would be analyzed in a separate 

alternative and addressed in the 

cumulative effects portion of this EIS 

document. 

During the preparation of the EIS, 

interim exploration and development 

will be subject to development 

guidelines and decisions made in 

applicable NEPA documents, including 

but not limited to: Coordinated Activity 

Plan for the Big Piney/LaBarge Area, 

and ROD, 1991; Enron Oil & Gas 

Company East LaBarge Infill Drilling 

Project Environmental Assessment (EA), 

Finding of No Significant Impact and 

Decision Record 1992; the Green River 

Resource Management Plan and Final 

EIS and ROD, 1997; and the Pinedale 

Resource Management Plan/Final EIS 

and ROD, 2008. 

The LaBarge Platform Project area is 

adjacent to the project area considered 

in the South Piney Natural Gas Project 

Draft EIS (2005). The proponent of the 

South Piney Project has not submitted 

any revised proposals nor has the BLM 

been contacted about continuing any 

further NEPA process. Therefore, the 

BLM has concluded its NEPA process 

and no further environmental 

documents will be prepared for the 

South Piney Project proposal. 

The EIS for the LaBarge Platform 

Project will analyze the environmental 

consequences of implementing the 

proposed action and alternatives to the 

proposed action, including a No Action 

alternative. Other alternatives that may 

be considered in detail include drilling 

surface densities and pace of 

development different from those of the 

proposed action. 

Your input is important and will be 

considered in the environmental 

analysis process. All comment 

submittals must include the 

commenter’s name and street address. 

Comments including the names and 

addresses of the respondent will be 

available for public inspection at the 

above offices during normal business 

hours, Monday through Friday, except 

Federal holidays. Before including your 

address, phone number, e-mail address, 

or any other personal identifying 

information in your comment, be 

advised that your entire comment, 

including your personal identifying 

information may be publicly available at 

any time. While you can ask us in your 

comment to withhold from public 

review your personal identifying 

information, we cannot guarantee that 

we will be able to do so. 

All submissions from organizations or 

businesses, and from individuals 

identifying themselves as 

representatives or officials of 

organizations or businesses, will be 

made available for public inspection in 

their entirety.

Notice of Inventory Completion: St. 

Lawrence University, Department of 

Anthropology, Canton, NY; Correction 

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior. 

ACTION: Notice; correction. 

Notice is here given in accordance 

with the Native American Graves 

Protection and Repatriation Act 

(NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3003, of the 

completion of an inventory of human 

remains in the possession of St. 

Lawrence University, Department of 

Anthropology, Canton, NY. The human 

remains were removed from St. 

Lawrence County, NY. 

This notice is published as part of the 

National Park Service’s administrative 

responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25 

U.S.C. 3003 (d)(3). The determinations 

in this notice are the sole responsibility 

of the museum, institution, or Federal 

agency that has control of the Native 

American human remains. The National 

Park Service is not responsible for the 

determinations in this notice. 

This notice corrects the number of 

tribes that were determined to be 

culturally affiliated in a Notice of 

Inventory Completion previously 

published in the Federal Register (73 

FR 50996–50997, August 29, 2008) by 

adding the Oneida, Cayuga, and 

Onondaga Indian Nations, in addition to 

the Mohawk Nation. After publication, 

St. Lawrence University determined that 

the Oneida, Mohawk, Cayuga, and 

Onondaga Nations are all culturally 

affiliated with the Native American 

human remains, which are currently in 

the possession of the Department of 

Anthropology, St. Lawrence University. 

In the Federal Register of August 29, 

2008, paragraph numbers 6–10 are

beyond. The St. Lawrence River and its 

tributaries were continually used as part 

of Native American hunting and fishing 

grounds. During the French and Indian 

War, Native Americans who occupied 

the Oswegatchie River region 

(Oswegatchie is a tributary of the St. 

Lawrence River), which included the 

Oneida, Mohawk, Cayuga, and 

Onondaga, were dislocated as a result of 

the war. Many Native Americans were 

forced to abandon their settlements, 

which included the abandonment of La 

Presentation in 1759. Many Iroquoian 

families were forced to migrate to 

present-day St. Regis where they were 

adopted by the Mohawk. Consultation 

with tribal representatives of the 

Mohawks of Akwesasne (which is 

composed of the Saint Regis Mohawk 

Tribe, New York; Mohawk Council of 

Akwesasne; and Mohawk Nation 

Council of Chiefs) provided additional 

lines of evidence. 

Through ongoing consultation with 

Native American groups and Lauren 

French, examination of the human 

remains, and review of the available 

literature, officials of St. Lawrence 

University have determined that the 

human remains are Native American 

and most likely share common 

Iroquoian identity with the Cayuga 

Nation of New York; Oneida Nation of 

New York; Oneida Tribe of Indians of 

Wisconsin; Onondaga Nation of New 

York; and the Mohawks of Akwesasne 

(which is composed of the Saint Regis 

Mohawk Tribe, New York; Mohawk 

Council of Akwesasne; and Mohawk 

Nation Council of Chiefs). 

Officials of the St. Lawrence 

University, Department of Anthropology 

have determined that, pursuant to 25 

U.S.C. 3001 (9–10), the human remains 

described above represents the physical 

remains of one individual of Native 

American ancestry. Officials of the St. 

Lawrence University, Department of 

Anthropology have determined that, 

pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (2), there is 

a relationship of shared group identity 

that can be reasonably traced between 

the Native American human remains 

and the Cayuga Nation of New York; 

Oneida Nation of New York; Oneida 

Tribe of Indians of Wisconsin; 

Onondaga Nation of New York; and 

Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe, New York. 

Lastly, officials of the St. Lawrence 

University, Department of Anthropology 

have determined that there is a cultural 

relationship between the human 

remains and the Mohawk Council of 

Akwesasne and Mohawk Nation 

Council of Chiefs. 

Representatives of any other Indian 

tribe that believes itself to be culturally 

affiliated with the human remains 

should contact Dr. Richard A. Gonzalez, 

Department of Anthropology, St. 

Lawrence University, Canton, NY 

13617, telephone (315) 229–5745, before 

September 2, 2009. Repatriation of the 

human remains to the Cayuga Nation of 

New York; Oneida Nation of New York; 

Oneida Tribe of Indians of Wisconsin; 

Onondaga Nation of New York; and 

Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe, New York 

(which also represents the Mohawk 

Council of Akwesasne and the Mohawk 

Nation Council of Chiefs), may proceed 

after that date if no additional claimants 

come forward. 

St. Lawrence University is responsible 

for notifying the Cayuga Nation of New 

York; Oneida Nation of New York; 

Oneida Tribe of Indians of Wisconsin; 

Onondaga Nation of New York; Saint 

Regis Mohawk Tribe, New York; 

Mohawk Council of Akwesasne; and 

Mohawk Nation Council of Chiefs that

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background.—On November 13, 1985, 

the Department of Commerce issued an 

antidumping duty order on imports of 

barbed wire and barbless wire strand 

from Argentina (50 FR 46808). 

Following five-year reviews by 

Commerce and the Commission, 

effective May 12, 1999, Commerce 

issued a continuation of the 

antidumping duty order on imports of 

barbed wire and barbless fencing wire 

from Argentina (64 FR 42653). 

Following second five-year reviews by 

Commerce and the Commission, 

effective September 20, 2004, Commerce 

issued a continuation of the 

antidumping duty order on imports of 

barbed wire and barbless fencing wire 

from Argentina (69 FR 56190). The 

Commission is now conducting a third 

review to determine whether revocation 

of the order would be likely to lead to 

continuation or recurrence of material 

injury to the domestic industry within 

a reasonably foreseeable time. It will 

assess the adequacy of interested party 

responses to this notice of institution to 

determine whether to conduct a full
