    Persons interested in reviewing environmental documents for the 
proposals listed above or obtaining information about EA's and FONSI's 
prepared for activities on the Gulf of Mexico OCS are encouraged to 
contact the MMS office in the Gulf of Mexico OCS Region.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Public Information Unit, Information Services Section, Gulf of Mexico 
OCS Region, Minerals Management Service, 1201 Elmwood Park Boulevard, 
New Orleans, Louisiana 70123-2394, Telephone (504) 736-2519.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The MMS prepares EA's and FONSI's for 
proposals which relate to exploration for and the development/
production of oil and gas resources on the Gulf of Mexico OCS. The EA's 
examine the potential environmental effects of activities described in 
the proposals and present MMS conclusions regarding the significance of 
those effects. Environmental Assessments are used as a basis for 
determining whether or not approval of the proposals constitutes major 
Federal actions that significantly affect the quality of the human 
environment in the sense of NEPA section 102(2)(C). A FONSI is prepared 
in those instances where the MMS finds that approval will not result in 
significant effects on the quality of the human environment. The FONSI 
briefly presents the basis for that finding and includes a summary or 
copy of the EA.
    This notice constitutes the public notice of availability of 
environmental documents required under the NEPA Regulations.

    Dated: January 31, 1994.
