BLM Rock Springs Is Taking Comments on Bridger Coal Proposal

Serena Baker with The Bureau of Land Management Rock Springs Field Office says they are launching a 30-day public scoping period prior to preparing an environmental assessment on a proposal by Bridger Coal Company to expand their coal lease by 320 acres for underground mining.






The area is roughly 35 miles northeast of Rock Springs. In addition to the federal lease modification request, the company is proposing to conduct underground coal mining on connecting private land.






Written comments should be received by May 2nd, and may be submitted by fax, email, mail, or hand-delivery during regular business hours.
