Notice of Availability of the Final Programmatic Environmental 
Impact Statement for the Designation of Energy Corridors on Federal 
Land in the 11 Western States, Including Proposed Amendments to 
Selected Land Use Plans LLW0350000.L14300000.PN0000

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice of availability.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the Department of 
Energy (DOE) as co-lead agencies, and the U.S. Forest Service (FS) of 
the Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Department of Defense (DOD), 
and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) of the Department of the 
Interior (DOI) as cooperating Federal Agencies (the Agencies) announce 
the availability of the Final Programmatic Environmental Impact 
Statement for the Designation of Energy Corridors on Federal Land in 
the 11 Western States (Final PEIS) (DOE/EIS-0386) that also proposes to 
amend 138 land use plans.
    The Coeur d'Alene Tribe, the California Energy Commission (CEC), 
the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), the State of 
Wyoming, and the Lincoln, Sweetwater, and Uinta counties and 
conservation districts in Wyoming are also cooperating agencies. The 
Department of Commerce (DOC) and the Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission (FERC) are consulting agencies.
    The Agencies prepared the Final PEIS pursuant to the National 
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4321 et 
seq.; the Council on Environmental Quality NEPA regulations, 40 CFR 
Parts 1500-1508; the DOE NEPA regulations, 10 CFR Part 1021; Compliance 
with Floodplain and Wetland Environmental Review Requirements, 10 CFR 
Part 1022; the BLM planning regulations, 43 CFR subpart 1610; and 
applicable FS planning regulations.
    Section 368 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct 2005), Public 
Law 109-58, directs the Secretaries of Agriculture, Commerce, Defense, 
Energy, and the Interior, in consultation with FERC, states, tribal or 
local units of governments, as appropriate; affected utility 
industries; and other interested persons to designate, under their 
respective authorities, corridors on Federal land in the 11 Western 
States for oil, gas, and hydrogen pipelines as well as electricity 
transmission and distribution facilities; perform any environmental 
reviews that may be required to complete the designation of such 
corridors; and incorporate the designated corridors into relevant 
agency land use and resource management plans or equivalent plans.
    The 11 Western States are Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, 
Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming.

DATES: Copies of the Final PEIS were distributed beginning November 20, 
2008 to Members of Congress, American Indian Tribal governments, state 
and local governments, other Federal agencies, and organizations and 
individuals who are known to have an interest in the Final PEIS.
    The DOI, USDA and DOD would issue separate Records of Decision 
(ROD) to amend selected land use plans for the purpose of designating 
EPAct 2005 Section 368 corridors no sooner than 30 days after the 
Environmental Protection Agency publishes the Notice of Availability of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Agencies prepared the Final PEIS to 
implement Section 368 of EPAct to designate preferred locations for 
future

oil, gas, and hydrogen pipelines as well as electricity transmission 
and distribution facilities and to incorporate the designated corridors 
into the relevant agencies' land use and resource management plans or 
equivalent plans. Section 368 directs the Agencies to take into account 
the need for upgraded and new infrastructure and to take actions to 
improve reliability, relieve congestion, and enhance the capability of 
the national grid to deliver energy. This action only pertains to the 
designation of corridors for potential facilities on Federal lands 
located within the 11 Western States.
    In addition, Section 368 is intended to improve coordination among 
the Agencies to increase the efficiency of using designated corridors. 
In many areas of the United States, including the West, the 
infrastructure required to deliver energy has not always kept pace with 
growth in energy demand. The Agencies hope to improve the delivery of 
energy, while enhancing the electric transmission grid for the future, 
by establishing a coordinated network of Federal energy corridors on 
Federal lands in the West. The Final PEIS analyzes the environmental 
impacts of designating Federal energy corridors in 11 Western States 
and incorporating those designations into relevant agency land use and 
resource management plans or equivalent plans.
    The Agencies are preparing this PEIS at the designation stage 
because they believe it is an appropriate time to examine environmental 
concerns at the programmatic level. Impacts that affect the quality of 
the environment will only occur after specific proposals are submitted, 
analyzed through the NEPA process, and approved by the land management 
agency. The Agencies expect that the PEIS will greatly assist 
subsequent site-specific analyses for individual project proposals by 
allowing the Agencies to incorporate this PEIS into those later 
analyses.
    The Final PEIS analyzes a No Action Alternative and a Proposed 
Action. Under the No Action Alternative, Federal energy corridors would 
not be designated on Federal lands in the 11 Western States. The siting 
and development of future energy transport projects would continue 
under current agency procedures for granting rights-of-way (ROW). Under 
the Proposed Action, the Agencies would designate and incorporate 
identified Federal energy corridors that would consist of existing, 
locally designated Federal energy corridors together with additional, 
newly designated energy corridors located on Federal land into relevant 
land use and resource management plans. The Proposed Action is the 
Agencies' preferred alternative.
    These energy corridors would comprise a comprehensive, coordinated 
network of preferred locations for future energy projects that could be 
developed to satisfy demand for energy. Under the Proposed Action, 
approximately 6,120 miles of Federal energy corridors would be 
designated on Federal lands within the 11 Western States as the 
preferred location for oil, natural gas, and hydrogen pipelines as well 
as electricity transmission and distribution lines. Environmental, 
engineering, and land use screening criteria were applied during the 
development of the Proposed Action to reduce potential environmental 
and land use conflicts. The energy corridors would typically be 3,500 
feet wide, although the width may vary in certain areas due to 
environmental, topographic, or management constraints. The DOI, USDA 
and DOD would amend their respective land use or equivalent plans to 
incorporate the designated energy corridors; the amendments would be 
effective upon signing of the relevant agency's ROD.
    The policies and Interagency Operating Procedures (IOPs) developed 
under the Proposed Action would establish minimum requirements for the 
management of future individual energy transport projects. The proposed 
policies identify management objectives and address the administration 
of energy transport development activities. The proposed IOPs identify 
required management procedures that would need to be incorporated into 
future project-specific energy transport development proposals. The 
Proposed Action would amend a total of 138 (93 BLM, 38 FS, 4 DOD, and 3 
NPS) land use and equivalent plans in the 11 Western States. The 
proposed land use plan amendments would incorporate the programmatic 
energy transport development policies and IOPs set forth in the Final 
PEIS. The proposed land use plan amendments would facilitate 
preparation and consideration of future energy transport development 
ROW applications on DOI-, USDA-, and DOD-administered lands in these 
states, but would not eliminate the need for site-specific NEPA 
analysis of individual development proposals.
    The Agencies propose to amend the following land use management 
plans, itemized in appendix A of the Final PEIS:

Land Use or Equivalent Plans Proposed for Amendment to Incorporate Epact Section 368 Energy Corridors on Federal
                                         Lands in the 11 Western States

This list represents the most current plans. This list differs in some particulars from the list in the Draft
  PEIS, Vol. 2. Since planning is dynamic and there may also be further changes in the locations of specific
  corridors, the individual agency Records of Decision may also include changes in this list.

    The Draft Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement for the 
Designation of Energy Corridors on Federal Land in the 11 Western 
States (Draft PEIS) was made available for public review and comment 
from November 16, 2007, to February 14, 2008. The Draft PEIS was posted 
on the project Web site at http://corridoreis.anl.gov, the DOE NEPA Web 
site at http://www.gc.energy.gov/nepa, and provided, on request, as a 
CD or printed document. Notice was provided to more than 2,200 
individuals and organizations who registered on the project Web site to 
receive information about the PEIS. Approximately 14,000 individuals 
and organizations commented on the Draft PEIS, providing more than 
3,500 substantive comments. About 57 percent of the comment documents 
were received via the project Web site, 21 percent were submitted by 
regular mail, and 22 percent were submitted at the public hearings, as 
oral statements, written submissions, or both.
    Volume IV of the Final PEIS contains the public comments on the 
Draft PEIS and the agencies' responses. Public comments addressed a 
broad range of issues. Nearly 35 percent of the comments addressed 
various topics related to the alternatives presented in the PEIS, 20 
percent commented on the purpose and need, and 17 percent commented on 
corridor location. Nearly 5 percent of the comments were concerned with 
ecological issues, approximately 4 percent raised concerns about 
multiple impact areas, 4 percent addressed cumulative impacts, and 
slightly more than 2 percent dealt with tribal issues.
    The remaining comments were divided among a number of topics, each 
comprising less than 2 percent of the total. The topics (listed in 
decreasing order) include general impacts, land use, water resources, 
health and safety, cultural resources, maps, visual resources, 
socioeconomics, regulations, air quality, environmental justice, and 
noise.
    Public and internal agency review comments on the Draft PEIS were 
incorporated into the Final PEIS. Public comments resulted in changes 
to the text and modifications to corridor segments. These changes have 
improved the analysis and clarified the discussion of important issues 
but did not significantly modify the Proposed Action or proposed land 
use plan amendments. The Final PEIS contains a number of modifications 
to corridor segments in response to public and agency comments. These 
changes are detailed in appendix K of the Final PEIS.
    Government-to-government consultation regarding potential energy 
transport development and land use plan amendments on DOI-, USDA-, and 
DOD-administered lands was conducted with federally recognized Tribes 
whose interests might be directly and substantially affected. The 
Tribes contacted are listed in appendix C of the Final PEIS.
    In addition, the Agencies have initiated activities to coordinate 
and consult with the governors of each of the 11 Western States 
addressed in the PEIS and with State agencies. Prior to the Agencies' 
issuance of their respective RODs, the governor of each state has the 
opportunity to identify any inconsistencies between the proposed land 
use plan amendments and State or local plans and to provide 
recommendations, in writing, during the 60-day consistency review 
period required by the BLM land use planning regulations (43 CFR 
1610.3-2).
    The DOI Assistant Secretary, Land and Minerals Management (AS/LM) 
is the responsible official for publishing the proposed plan amendments 
affecting public lands. The Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 
1976 and its implementing regulations provide land use planning 
authority to the Secretary, which has been delegated to this Assistant 
Secretary. Because any decision regarding these plan amendments is 
being made by the AS/LM, it is the final decision for the DOI. This 
decision is not subject to administrative review (protest) under the 
BLM (DOI) land use planning regulations (43 CFR 1610.5-2).
    The USDA Under Secretary of Natural Resources and Environment is 
the responsible official for publishing the proposed plan amendments on 
National Forest System lands. The Forest and Rangeland Renewable 
Resources Planning Act of 1974 as amended by the National Forest 
Management Act of 1976, and their implementing regulations provide land 
use planning authority to the Secretary, as delegated to this Under 
Secretary. Because any decision regarding these plan amendments is 
being made by the Under Secretary, Natural Resources and Environment, 
it is the final decision for the Department of Agriculture. This 
decision is not subject to administrative review (objection) under the 
FS or Departmental regulations (36 CFR 219.13(a)(2)).
    Copies of the Final PEIS have been sent to the Environmental 
Protection Agency, DOI Office of Environmental Policy and Compliance, 
DOI Library, and the governors' offices in each of the 11 Western 
States covered by this PEIS. Copies of the Final PEIS are available at 
the BLM state offices and FS regional offices in the 11 Western States, 
DOE Headquarters Reading Room, the BLM Washington, DC, Public Affairs 
office and the FS Washington, DC, offices. Those interested may also 
review the Final PEIS and proposed land use plan amendments online at 
http://corridoreis.anl.gov.
