SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The lead
Federal agency for the Mohave County
Wind Farm Project is the BLM Kingman
Field Office. Cooperating agencies are
the Western Area Power Administration
(Western); Bureau of Reclamation—
Lower Colorado Region (Reclamation);
National Park Service—Lake Mead
National Recreation Area; Mohave
County, Arizona; Arizona Game and
Fish Department; and the Hualapai
Tribe Department of Cultural Resources.
The applicant, BP Wind Energy North
America (BPWE), applied for a right-ofway to construct, operate, maintain, and
decommission a 500-megawatt (MW)
wind farm, including turbine generators
and associated infrastructure, on
approximately 38,099 acres of land
managed by the BLM and approximately
8,960 acres of land managed by
Reclamation, totaling approximately
47,059 acres of Federal land. The project
area is located in the White Hills area
approximately 40 miles northwest of
Kingman, Arizona, approximately 9
miles south of the Colorado River, and
approximately 20 miles southeast of
Hoover Dam. A map of the proposed
project area and a legal description are
available on the BLM Web site at http://
www.blm.gov/az/st/en/prog/energy/
wind/mohave.html. The project is
anticipated to generate up to 500 MW of
electricity. It is proposed to consist of
up to 283 turbines, access roads, and
ancillary facilities. The turbine
generators would be selected from those
with a power output ranging from 1.5 to
3.0 MW each. To the extent possible,
existing roads would be used to reduce
potential impacts associated with the
construction of new roads. Roads would
be improved as needed, and the road
network would be supplemented with
internal access/service roads to each
wind turbine.
Proposed ancillary facilities include
pad-mounted transformers, an
underground 34.5-kilovolt (kV)
electrical collection system between the
turbines, distribution connector lines
(either underground or above-ground)
tying the turbine strings to either a 345-
