Scoping comments for the suspended 44,720 acres due in April
On Big Piney Ranger District in the Wyoming Range
by Bridger-Teton National Forest
March 17, 2008

The Bridger-Teton National Forest is about to issue a revised Notice of Intent to prepare a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement to analyze and disclose new information relative to oil and gas leasing of 44,720 acres on the Big Piney Ranger District. The Forest Service is providing this revised notice because the public scoping period is being extended. Comments concerning new information or issues not previously considered in the leasing analysis must now be postmarked by April 28, 2008. The Draft SEIS (DSEIS) is expected in November 2008.

The Interior Board of Lands Appeals (IBLA) issued a series of stays and remands in response to protests that blocked the completion of the leasing process for these 44,720 acres on the Wyoming Range of the Forest. According to the IBLA, existing analysis of the acreage was insufficient and a supplement analysis is needed.
