The BLM and FS have determined that certain lands within the planning area are excluded from geothermal leasing on the basis of existing laws, regulations (see 43 CFR 3201.11), and Executive Orders. These non-discretionary closures include the following lands administered by the BLM and FS: • National Monuments. • National Conservation Areas (NCA) and similar designations with the exception of King Range NCA and Steese NCA. • Wilderness Areas and National Wilderness Areas. • Wilderness Study Areas. • Lands within areas allocated for wilderness or further planning in Executive Communication 1504, Ninety-Sixth Congress (House Document 96-119), unless such lands are allocated to uses other than wilderness by a land and resource management plan or are released to uses other than wilderness by an act of Congress. • National Recreation Areas. • Designated Wild Rivers under the Wild and Scenic River Act. • The Island Park Geothermal Area (includes NFS lands in Idaho and Montana). • Withdrawn lands under Section 17(d)(1) of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act.1 As discussed in Chapter 1, there are other lands administered by other Federal agencies that are closed to leasing, including lands managed as part of the National Wildlife Refuge System (16 USC 668 [dd]) and lands within units of the National Park System. Prior to making a leasing decision on lands in proximity to a National Park System unit, the BLM or FS must determine if there would be any impacts to thermal or hydrological features within the unit, in accordance with the Geothermal Steam Act Amendments (30 USC Section 1026). In addition to non-discretionary closures, the BLM and FS have the administrative authority to issue discretionary closures to protect special resource values. BLM and FS have had a great deal more experience managing lands for development of oil and gas resources, and many more management plans address these resources. Development of oil and gas resources result in many of the same kinds of impacts as development of geothermal resources (e.g., surface disturbance resulting from the footprints of facilities, wells, pads and pipelines, as described in Section 2.5, Reasonably Foreseeable Development Scenario); therefore, BLM and FS have determined that it is appropriate to take an approach to development of geothermal resources similar to that taken to development of oil and gas resources. Areas that require protection from the effects of development of fluid resources are more likely to require protection from the similar effects of development of geothermal resources. Because of this, the BLM has A-6PDF Image | Washington Geothermal Energy Status
