Southwestern Region, Arizona, New Mexico, West Texas and 
Oklahoma: Proposed Surface Management of Natural Gas Resource 
Development on Jicarilla Ranger District, Carson National Forest, Rio 
Arriba County, NM; Additional Filings

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice; correction.

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

SUMMARY: The USDA Forest Service published a Notice of Intent (69 FR 
59881-59883, October 6, 2004) to prepare an environmental impact 
statement for a proposed forest plan amendment for surface management 
of gas leasing and development on the Jicarilla Ranger District, Carson 
National Forest. In addition, the proposal includes a leasing analysis 
for approximately 3,800 unleased acres on the Jicarilla Ranger 
District.
    A draft environmental impact statement has been completed and the 
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published a Notice of 
Availability (NOA) in the Federal Register on February 16, 2007 (72 FR 
54900). The end of the comment period presented in the NOA was 
incorrect and subsequently rectified in an amended notice (72 FR 9521, 
March 2, 2007).

CORRECTED DATES: The Notice of Intent (NOI) stated the final 
environmental impact statement (FEIS) was scheduled for completion in 
early summer of 2005. This Notice corrects the estimated filing date of 
the FEIS from early summer 2005, to the fall 2007. When completed, EPA 
will publish a NOA of the FEIS in the Federal Register.

Environmental Coordinator, Carson National Forest, at (505) 758-6212.
