San Francisco Creek #1 APD

The BLM San Luis Valley Field Office is posting the draft Environmental Assessment (EA) for 30-day public review of the San Francisco Creek #1 Application for Permit to Drill (APD). As part of this process, the BLM is seeking public comments to the alternatives and analysis provided in the EA.   

The APD is for a proposed exploratory oil and gas well that would be drilled on land owned by the Dan A. Hughes Company, approximately five miles south of Del Norte. The federal mineral rights below the private land were leased from the BLM in 2006.
