Description: "This Partial Exploration Plan draft ... has been prepared jointly by the lessees for Tracts U-a (Sun Oil Company and Phillips Petroleum Company) and U-b (White River Shale Oil Corporation) pursuant to Section 10 (d) of the respective Oil Shale Leases (U-25918 and U-26194). This Partial Exploration Plan is specifically directed toward the activities relating to the Environmental Baseline Data Collection and Monitoring Program and associated requirements. This Partial Exploration Plan details the two respective lessee's plans for implementing a joint integrated environmental program on both Tracts U-a and U-b. This program, which includes collecting baseline data and establishing comprehensive environmental monitoring activities to be conducted through the initial two-year period, will clearly define and document the environmental conditions that exist on the tracts prior to any development. This will provide the essential predevelopment planning information which, together with engineering and economic data, will serve as a basis for the physical planning and design of oil shale mining and processing facilities and preparation of the Detailed Development Plan (DDP)."
