Notes
This Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) was written in response to an application to lease the Flat Canyon Coal Lease Tract by Canyon Fuel Company, LLC. The purpose of the application is to potentially add adjacent recoverable coal reserves to the permit area for the Skyline Mine and extend the mine life for an estimated 9-12 years ... The RFDS [reasonably foreseeable development scenario] projects underground coal mining within the tract and adjacent private lands, including some minor surface developments consisting of two ventilation shafts and 10 coal exploration drill holes (development drilling)...the responsible agency officials must decide whether or not to offer the tract for competitive leasing and, if offered, what stipulations to include in the lease for protection of the coal resources and other natural resources on the Manti-La Sal National Forest.
