Utah; Management Framework Plans

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management.

ACTION: Notice of Availability of Proposed Plan Amendment and 
Environmental Assessment/FONSI on Oil and Gas Leasing for the Randolph 
and Park City Management Framework Plans, Bear River Resource Area, 
Utah.

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

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management completed a Proposed Plan 
Amendment/EA/FONSI on May 26, 1994. All public land and subsurface oil 
and gas estate in Cache, Davis, Morgan, Rich, Summit, Wasatch, and 
Weber Counties have been analyzed. The proposed recategorization for 
oil and gas leasing is as follows:

Category 1--Open to leasing, 102,139 acres.
Category 2--Open to leasing with special stipulations, 330,723 acres.
Category 3--Open to leasing with no surface occupancy, 530 acres.
Category 4--Closed to leasing, 0 acres.

    The proposed amendment to the Randolph and Park City Management 
Framework Plans (MFPs) would incorporate these revised decisions on 
management of oil and gas resources. The final Environmental Assessment 
revealed no significant impacts from the proposed action. The Bureau's 
preferred alternative is Alternative 1--Proposed Action. A Notice of 
Intent proposing to amend the MFPs was published in the Federal 
Register on April 24, 1990.
    A 30-day protest period for the planning amendment will commence 
with publication of this notice of availability.
