Project Description

The FLUA/FEIS was prepared in response to two lease-by-applications (LBAs) received by the BLM to lease federal coal in the Coalburg/Winifrede seam that underlies nine tracts of land in Wayne County, West Virginia. Under the LBA process, tracts are nominated for leasing by companies with adjacent existing mines. Both applicants (Argus and Rockspring) conducted active mining operations adjacent to the proposed federal lease tracts.
