    The Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSMRE) has released a Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) for changes to the mining plan at the Rosebud Mine Area F in Montana, which aims to permit ongoing mining of around 71.3 million tons of coal over 4,288 acres. This draft addresses shortcomings identified by a district court, particularly around analyzing alternatives and the environmental impact of greenhouse gases and water. The public is invited to comment by January 21, 2025, and can attend a meeting on January 8, 2025. OSMRE will use these comments to refine the SEIS and recommend if the mining plan should be approved, disapproved, or conditionally approved by the Assistant Secretary for Land and Minerals Management.

    The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has prepared a draft supplemental environmental impact statement (EIS) for the Commonwealth LNG Project in response to a court ruling that found FERC did not properly assess the project's cumulative nitrogen dioxide emissions. The draft EIS evaluates these environmental effects, helping FERC reconsider the project. The document is available for public comment until April 7, 2025, and people can submit comments electronically or by mail. Interested individuals can also seek to become official intervenors in the proceedings to engage more directly.
