Jonah Energy Announces BLM’s Release of Final Environmental Impact Statement of the NPL Natural Gas Project
Jonah Energy LLC announces the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) release
of the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) on the Normally
Pressured Lance (NPL) natural gas development project. Throughout the
more than seven-year process, Jonah Energy has worked closely with the
State of Wyoming, the BLM and environmental partners to ensure the
project has minimal impact on the community, environment and wildlife.
“We look forward to reviewing the details of the FEIS between now and
the BLM’s Record of Decision on the project. We’re ready to get to
work,” said Paul Ulrich, Jonah Energy director of government and
regulatory affairs. “As part of our plans for the project adjacent to
the Jonah Field in Wyoming, Jonah Energy will readily continue to
partner with the state, BLM, and various community and environmental
organizations to ensure that the NPL project sets the standard for
environmental protection and sustainable oil and gas drilling.”
Jonah Energy has a strong track-record of working with groups such as
the Wyoming Governor’s Sage Grouse Implementation Team, the Wyoming
Outdoor Council, The Nature Conservancy and the National Audubon Society
to ensure that wildlife and the environment are protected.
The BLM estimates the economic impact of the NPL, which calls for up to
3,500 wells, will potentially bring $1.1 billion in tax revenue and 700
jobs to Wyoming’s state economy.
