FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
The BLM
is considering issuing coal leases as a
result of applications made by Argus
Energy WV LLC (Argus) and Rockspring
Development Inc. (Rockspring) to lease
the Federal coal in the East Lynn Lake
Project area in Wayne County, West
Virginia. Argus submitted a coal LBA
(WVES–50556) to BLM for 7,639.63
acres bordering a portion of the
southern shore of East Lynn Lake.
Rockspring also submitted a coal LBA
(WVES–50560) to BLM for 5,449.92
acres that border a portion of the north
shore of the lake. The two applicants are
proposing to use private existing
underground mines to access the
adjacent Federal coal. No mining would
occur directly beneath the lake itself
and no surface mining would take place.
East Lynn Lake is located approximately
25 miles south of Huntington, West
Virginia, and is managed by the USACE
for flood control, recreation, and
wildlife. The Final LUA/Final EIS
analyzes and discloses to the public
direct, indirect, and cumulative
environmental impacts of issuing
Federal coal leases in the East Lynn
Lake Project area.

The State of West Virginia does not
use the Public Land Rectangular Survey
system to legally describe land tracts
within the State. The State of West
Virginia uses Metes and Bounds
property descriptions. Consequently, to
avoid numerous pages of lengthy legal
descriptions, the Federal coal reserves
encompassed by the LBAs are described
below by referencing the USACE
mineral-tract number the reserves fall
within. It should be pointed out that
referencing a mineral-tract number in
the listing below does not necessarily
mean the entire mineral tract is under
application. More detailed property
descriptions are available in the case
files located in the BLM Northeastern
States Field Office, see ADDRESSES
above.

the application area. Rockspring would
similarly access their application area
from their existing underground mine
located on private lands north of their
application area. The existing mines for
Argus and Rockspring have approved
mining and reclamation plans from the
West Virginia Department of
Environmental Quality (DEQ) and an
approved air quality permit from the Air
Quality Division of the West Virginia
DEQ.
It is reasonable to expect that
Rockspring may wish to conduct
exploratory drilling on their area of
interest. It is also reasonable to expect
that both companies may need to drill
additional holes for mine plan purposes
if leases were to be issued and mine
plans approved.
The Office of Surface Mining
Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM),
the USACE, and the West Virginia
Division of Natural Resources (DNR) are
cooperating agencies in the preparation
of the Final LUA/Final EIS. The BLM is
authorized to lease Federal coal under
the Mineral Leasing Act as defined
under 43 CFR 3480.0–5(a)(25) for
federally owned coal at East Lynn Lake.
The OSM, in cooperation with the State
of West Virginia, issues mine permits
under the Surface Mining Control and
Reclamation Act.
The Final LUA/Final EIS analyzes
leasing of the East Lynn Lake Federal
coal tracts as the Proposed Action, and
it is the agency’s Preferred Alternative.
Under the Proposed Action, a
competitive sale would be held and two
leases issued for Federal coal in the
tracts as applied for by Argus and
Rockspring. The Final LUA/Final EIS
also analyzes the rejection of the
applications to lease Federal coal as the
No Action Alternative. These
alternatives were developed through

issue identification during the scoping
process. Such issues include: direct,
indirect, and cumulative environmental
impacts, protection of the East Lynn
Lake including surface and groundwater
water quality, integrity of the dam,
cultural, social science, and economic
impacts associated with commercial
leasing of the Federal coal.
The Notice of Intent (NOI) to prepare
a LUA/EIS for Federal coal leasing
administered by the BLM in Wayne
County, West Virginia was published in
the Federal Register on July 14, 2005
(70 FR 40723). As originally stated in
the NOI, the LUA/EIS is to evaluate the
potential impacts associated with the
commercial leasing of Federal coal in
the East Lynn Lake Project area. A
notice announcing the availability of the
Draft LUA and Draft EIS and Notice of
Public Hearing was published in the
Federal Register by the EPA on June 27,
2008. A 90-day comment period on the
Draft LUA/Draft EIS commenced with
publication of the EPA’s notice of
availability, which would have ended
on September 24, 2008. On September
9, 2008, a Notice of Extension was
published in the Federal Register to
extend the comment period an
additional 45 days and this period
ended on November 10, 2008. The
BLM’s Federal Register notice
announced the date and time of the
public hearing, which was held on July
31, 2008, in Wayne, West Virginia. The
purpose of the hearing was to solicit
comments on the Draft LUA/Draft EIS,
the fair market value, and the maximum
economic recovery of the Federal coal.
Seven statements were given as
testimony at the public hearing; they are
summarized in an appendix in the Final
LUA/Final EIS. During the Draft LUA/
Draft EIS comment period, the BLM
received 48 comment letters, included
in an appendix to the Final LUA/Final
EIS with BLM’s responses to the
comments. Comments on the Draft
LUA/Draft EIS received from the public
and internal BLM review were
considered and incorporated as
appropriate into the document. Public
comments resulted in the addition of
clarification text, but did not
significantly change the Final LUA/
Final EIS.
Instructions for filing a protest with
the Director of the BLM regarding the
Final LUA/Final EIS may be found in
the Dear Reader Letter of the East Lynn
Lake Project Final LUA/Final EIS and at
43 CFR 1610.5–2. Emailed and faxed
protests will not be accepted as valid
protests unless the protesting party also
provides the original letter by either
regular or overnight mail postmarked by
the close of the protest period. Under

these conditions, the BLM will consider
the emailed or faxed protest as an
advance copy and the comment will
receive full consideration. If you wish to
provide the BLM with such advance
notification, please direct faxed protests
to the attention of the BLM protest
coordinator at (202) 912–7212, and
