SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This NOA is specific to the BLM, the BOR and 
the USFS and provides notice that these agencies have participated as 
cooperating agencies with FERC in the preparation of the Jordan Cove 
Energy and PCGP Projects Final EIS. The FERC has been the lead Federal 
agency for the environmental analysis of the proposed Jordan Cove 
Energy and PCGP Projects.
    The comprehensive Jordan Cove Energy and PCGP Projects Final EIS 
includes consideration of the proposed actions of the FERC and the 
cooperating agencies, including a BLM right-of-way (ROW) grant and the 
associated BLM RMP and USFS Land and Resource Management Plan (LRMP) 
amendments, collectively referred to as Land Management Plan (LMP) 
amendments. The proposed actions described in the Final EIS include a 
number of amendments to the BLM and the USFS LMPs for the BLM Coos Bay, 
Roseburg, and Medford Districts and the Klamath Falls Resource Area of 
the Lakeview District and the Umpqua, Rogue River, and Winema National 
Forests. In addition, the proposed action in the Final EIS includes the 
ROW grant across Federal lands managed by the BLM, the USFS, and the 
Bureau of Reclamation. The BOR will not need to amend any LMPs as a 
result of this project.
    Following issuance of the Final EIS and resolution of any protests, 
the BLM and USFS will prepare Records of Decision regarding the 
proposed LMP amendments. The BLM, with concurrence from the USFS and 
the Bureau of Reclamation, will also prepare a Record of Decision 
regarding whether to grant or deny ROW grants across Federal lands. The 
BLM's ROW decision may be appealed under 43 CFR part 4.
    In accordance with 36 CFR 219.17(b)(2), the deciding official for 
the USFS has elected to use the 1982 planning rule procedures to amend 
the USFS LRMPs as provided in the transition procedures of the 2000 
planning rule. The 1982 planning rule procedures require the USFS to 
determine the significance of the proposed amendments or alternatives 
in accordance with national forest planning regulation 36 CFR 219.10(f) 
(1982 procedures). The USFS will use criteria in Forest Service Manual 
1926.5 to make this determination of the significance of proposed LRMP 
amendments. The following amendments have been developed by the BLM and 
the USFS as part of the proposed action in the Final EIS:

Amendment of the BLM Coos Bay District, Roseburg District, Medford 
District, and Klamath Falls Resource Area of the Lakeview District RMPs 
and the Umpqua National Forest, Rogue River National Forest, and Winema 
National Forest LMPs

    BLM/USFS-1--Applicable BLM RMPs and USFS LRMPs would be amended to 
exempt ``certain known sites'' within the area of the proposed PCGP 
Project from the Management Recommendations required by the 2001 
``Record of Decision and Standards and Guidelines for Amendments to the 
Survey and Manage, Protection Buffer, and other Mitigation Measures 
Standards and Guidelines,'' as modified by court order.

Amendment of the BLM Coos Bay District and Roseburg District RMPs

    BLM-1--The Coos Bay District and Roseburg District RMPs would be 
amended to waive the requirements to protect occupied, suitable, and 
potential habitat for the Marbled Murrelet, as mapped by the BLM within 
the proposed PCGP Project area.

Amendments of BLM Roseburg District RMP

    BLM-2--The Roseburg District RMP would be amended to exempt the 
PCGP Project from the requirement to retain habitat in ``Known Owl 
Activity Centers'' at three locations.
    BLM-3--The Roseburg District RMP would be amended to change the 
designation of approximately 409 acres

[[Page 66037]]

from the Matrix land allocation to the Late-Successional Reserve (LSR) 
land allocation in Sections 32 and 34, T. 29 1/2 S., R. 7 W., and 
Section 1, T. 30 S., R. 7 W., W.M., Oregon.

Amendment of BLM Coos Bay District RMP

    BLM-4--The Coos Bay District RMP would be amended to change the 
designation of approximately 387 acres from the Matrix land allocation 
to the LSR land allocation in Sections 19 and 29, T. 28 S., R. 10 W., 
W.M., Oregon.

Amendments of the Rogue River National Forest LRMP

    RRNF-2--The Rogue River National Forest LRMP would be amended to 
change the Visual Quality Objective (VQO) in the area where the PCGP 
Project corridor would cross the Big Elk Road at pipeline milepost 
161.4 in Section 16, T. 37 S., R. 4 E., W.M., Oregon, from ``foreground 
retention'' to ``foreground partial retention'' and allow more time for 
amended visual quality objectives to be attained.
    RRNF-3--The Rogue River National Forest LRMP would be amended to 
change the VQO in the vicinity where the PCGP Project corridor would 
cross the Pacific Crest Trail at pipeline milepost 167.84 in Section 
32, T. 37 S., R. 5 E., W.M., Oregon, from ``foreground partial 
retention'' to ``modification'' and allow more time for amended VQOs to 
be attained.
    RRNF-4--The Rogue River National Forest LRMP would be amended to 
allow more time to meet the VQO between the PCGP Project corridor 
mileposts 156.3 to 156.8 and 157.2 to 157.5 in Sections 11 and 12, T. 
37 S., R. 3 E., W.M., Oregon. Standards and Guidelines for 
``Middleground Partial Retention'' require that VQOs for a given 
location be achieved within one year of completion of the project. 
Approximately 0.8 miles or 9 acres of Middleground Partial Retention 
VQO visible at distances of 0.75 to 5 miles from State Highway 140 
would be affected by this amendment.
    RRNF-5--The Rogue River National Forest LRMP would be amended to 
allow the PCGP Project corridor to cross lands subject to the 
``restricted riparian management strategy'' Standards and Guidelines. 
This would potentially affect approximately 2.5 acres of the PCGP 
Project corridor associated with one perennial stream crossing of the 
South Fork of Little Butte Creek at milepost 162.45 in Section 15, T. 
37 S., R. 4 E., W.M., Oregon.
    RRNF-6--The Rogue River National Forest LRMP would be amended to 
waive limitations on areas affected by detrimental soil conditions from 
displacement and compaction within the proposed PCGP Project corridor 
in all affected management areas.
    RRNF-7--The Rogue River National Forest LRMP would be amended to 
change the designation of approximately 512 acres from the Matrix land 
allocation to the LSR land allocation in Section 32, T. 36 S., R. 4 E., 
W.M., Oregon.

Amendments of the Umpqua National Forest LRMP

    UNF-1--The Umpqua National Forest LRMP would be amended to change 
the Standards and Guidelines for Fisheries to allow the removal of 
effective shading vegetation where perennial streams would be crossed 
by the PCGP Project corridor. This change would potentially affect an 
estimated three acres of shading vegetation at four perennial stream 
crossings in the East Fork of Cow Creek from pipeline mileposts 109 to 
110 in Sections 16 and 21, T. 32 S., R. 2 W., W.M., Oregon.
    UNF-2--The Umpqua National Forest LRMP would be amended to change 
prescriptions C2-II and C2-IV and to allow the PCGP Project corridor to 
cross Riparian Areas (i.e., Riparian Reserves) and run parallel to the 
East Fork of Cow Creek for approximately 0.1 mile between milepost 
109.68 and 109.78 in Section 21, T. 32 S., R. 2 W., W.M., Oregon. This 
change would potentially affect approximately one acre of Riparian 
Reserve along the East Fork of Cow Creek.
    UNF-3--The Umpqua National Forest LRMP would be amended to waive 
limitations on the area affected by detrimental soil conditions from 
displacement and compaction within the proposed PCGP Project corridor. 
Standards and Guidelines for Soils requires that not more than 20 
percent of the project area have detrimental compaction, displacement, 
or puddling after completion of a project.
    UNF-4--The Umpqua National Forest LRMP would be amended to change 
the designation of approximately 588 acres from the Matrix land 
allocation to the LSR 223 land allocation in Sections 7, 18, and 19, T. 
32 S., R. 2 W., and Sections 13 and 24, T. 32 S., R. 3 W., W.M., 
Oregon.

Amendments of the Winema National Forest LRMP

    WNF-1--The Winema National Forest LRMP would be amended to change 
the Standards and Guidelines for Management Area 3 (MA-3) to allow for 
development of the 95-foot-wide PCGP Project corridor in MA-3 from the 
Forest Boundary in Section 32, T. 37 S., R. 5 E., to the Clover Creek 
Road corridor in Section 4, T. 38 S, R. 5 E., W.M., Oregon. Standards 
and Guidelines for MA-3 state that the area is currently an avoidance 
area for new utility corridors. This amendment would apply to a portion 
of the proposed PCGP Project corridor that would be approximately 1.5 
miles long and occupy approximately 17 acres.
    WNF-2--The Winema National Forest LRMP would be amended to allow 
more time to achieve the VQO where the PCGP Project corridor would 
cross the Dead Indian Memorial Highway at approximately milepost 168.84 
in Section 33, T. 37 S., R. 5 E., W.M., Oregon.
    WNF-3--The Winema National Forest LRMP would be amended to allow 
more time to meet the VQO for Scenic Management, Foreground Partial 
Retention, where the PCGP Project corridor would be adjacent to the 
Clover Creek Road from approximately milepost 170 to 175 in Sections 2, 
3, 4, 11 and 12, T. 38 S., R. 5 E., and Sections 7, 17 and 18, T. 38 
S., R. 6 E., W.M., Oregon. This amendment would be applicable to 
approximately 50 acres of the proposed PCGP Project corridor.
    WNF-4--The Winema National Forest LRMP would be amended to waive 
restrictions on detrimental soil conditions from displacement and 
compaction within the proposed PCGP Project corridor in all affected 
management areas.
    WNF-5--The Winema National Forest LRMP would be amended to waive 
restrictions on detrimental soil conditions from displacement and 
compaction within the proposed PCGP Project corridor within Management 
Area 8, Riparian Area (MA-8). This amendment would apply to 
approximately 0.5 mile or an estimated 9.6 acres of MA-8. Standards and 
Guidelines for Soil and Water, MA-8 require that not more than 10 
percent of the total riparian zone in an activity area be in a 
detrimental soil condition upon the completion of a project.
    Copies of the Jordan Cove Energy and PCGP Projects Final EIS are 
available for inspection in the BLM Coos Bay, Roseburg, and Medford 
District offices; the Klamath Falls Resource Area of the Lakeview 
District office; and at the offices of the Forest Supervisors for the 
Rogue River, Umpqua, and Winema National Forests.
