Notice of correction.

SUMMARY:

On Monday, December 12, 2005, the Bureau of Land Management published a Notice of Availability of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for the Atlantic Rim Natural Gas Development Project in the Federal Register [Vol. 70, No. 237, p. 73482]. The SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION on alternatives analyzed in detail contained naming errors. The correct information is as follows:

The Atlantic Rim DEIS analyzed four alternatives in detail:

1. The Proposed Action Alternative;

2. Alternative A, the No Action Alternative, which means the project as proposed would be rejected by the BLM;

3. Alternative B—Phased development; and,

4. Alternative C—Special protection of sensitive of sensitive resources.

“The agency's preferred alternative is a combination of Alternative B and C.”

These corrected alternative names also correct references to the alternatives for the remainder of the notice.
