description: SRP requested that Logan Simpson conduct a Class 111 cultural resources inventory of 1,971 acres within Mine Area J-21 West (J-21-W) in Peabody Western Coal Company's proposed Kayenta Mine Complex (KMC). This is part of a larger environmental impact study (EIS) for the continued operation of the Navajo Generating Station (NGS) and the KMC from December 23, 2019 to December 22, 2044. Reclamation is the lead federal agency, and the BIA and OSMRE are key cooperating agencies. Re-permitting of the NGS-KMC is a federal undertaking and must comply with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. A cultural resources inventory is required under 36 CFR § 800 (as revised in 2004), the regulations implementing Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. Reclamation is the lead federal agency for compliance with the NHPA on the KMC until the Record of Decision (ROD) is signed. At that time, OSMRE will become the lead federal agency assuming NHPA responsibility. SRP requested that Logan Simpson conduct cultural resources inventory of PWCC Mine Area J-21-W, record any cultural resources encountered to current standards, and prepare National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) recommendations for each site.
