SUMMARY:

DHS and DOE consulted on the
appropriateness of DHS’s adoption of
the electric vehicle charging stations CE
from June 2023 through September
2023. This consultation included a
review of DOE’s experience developing
and applying the CE and the types of
actions for which DHS plans to utilize
the CE. Based on this consultation and
review, DHS has determined that the
types of projects it intends to undertake
to install, operate, modify, and remove
electric vehicle charging stations at its
facilities are substantially similar to
such projects for which DOE has
applied the CE. Accordingly, the
impacts of DHS projects will be
substantially similar to the impacts of
DOE projects, which are not significant,
absent the existence of extraordinary
circumstances. Therefore, DHS has
determined that its proposed use of the
electric vehicle charging stations CE, as
described within this notice, would be
appropriate.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Act is
a once-in-a-generation investment in our
nation’s infrastructure and economic
competitiveness. The Act, which is
codified at 42 U.S.C. 15907, creates a
plugging, remediation, and restoration
program within the Department of the
Interior (DOI) to address orphaned
wells, well sites, associated pipelines,
facilities, infrastructure, habitats, soil
remediation, tracking emissions of
methane and other gases, tracking of
ground and surface water
contamination, located on Federal
lands, Tribal lands, and state and
private lands.
Under the Act, states may be eligible
to receive the following types of grants
awarded, administered, and overseen by
the OWPO: Initial Grants, Formula
Grants, and Performance Grants. There
are two categories of Performance
Grants: Matching Grants and RIGs. The
Act makes $1.5 billion available to DOI
for distribution to eligible states for
Performance Grants. A state that
received an Initial Grant is eligible to
apply for and receive two separate RIGs,
if the state meets one or both of the
following conditions during the 10-year
period that precedes its application:
(l) The state has strengthened
plugging standards and procedures
designed to ensure that wells located in
the state are plugged in an effective
manner that protects groundwater and
other natural resources, public health
and safety, and the environment
(Plugging Standards).
(ll) The state has made improvements
to state programs designed to reduce
future orphaned well burdens, such as
financial assurance reform, alternative
funding mechanisms for orphaned well
programs, and reforms to programs
relating to well transfer or temporary
abandonment (Program Standards).
A state may apply for and receive one
RIG of up to $20 million for each of the
above Standards, meaning a state may
receive up to a total of $40 million in
RIGs. RIGs are subject to available
appropriations and grant application
window deadlines. All RIG funds must
be obligated by the state within five
years of the effective date of the award.
On January 10, 2023, Secretary
Haaland issued Order 3409, which
established the OWPO to ensure
effective, accountable, and efficient
implementation of the Act. The OWPO
invites public comment to inform the
