The purpose of this scoping report is to present a summary of the oral and written comments submitted to Minerals Management Service (MMS) during the public scoping period. This report does not (1) analyze or evaluate submitted comments; (2) present an exhaustive list of each verbatim comment received; or (3) present responses, conclusions, or decisions on scoping comments. The environmental impact statement (EIS) will address and analyze the information obtained through the scoping process, and identify issues that may require further, detailed analysis. The MMS conducted a total of 10 public scoping meetings between May and September 2008. In addition, MMS met with several stakeholder groups to gather information as part of the scoping process. This report summarizes the information MMS obtained during scoping. The MMS continues to gather additional information throughout the EIS process.
