BOEMRE holds Anchorage hearing

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement (formerly the Minerals Management Service) will hold a hearing in Anchorage Nov. 9 on its draft supplemental environmental impact statement relating to Chukchi Sea Sale 193.

The agency had hearings scheduled on the draft SEIS from Nov. 1-Nov. 5 in Kotzebue, Point Hope, Point Lay, Wainwright and Barrow.

The Anchorage hearing will be at 3801 Centerpoint Drive; it begins at 7 p.m.

BOEMRE said the SEIS addresses issues raised in the July 21 decision of the U.S. District Court for the District of Alaska that remanded Sale 193 back to the agency.

The draft SEIS is posted at http://alaska.boemre.gov.

BOEMRE will accept public comments on the draft through Nov. 29 and will consider those comments when it prepares the final SEIS.
