2-3MW ground-mounted solar facility comprised of I-beams supporting the array, an access road, fencing, and infiltration basin, various equipment pads, and vegetative screening. Trees may be removed. Wetlands will not be impacted.
Draft Environmental Assessment La Loma Tank Replacement Project Cuba, Sandoval County, New Mexico
The Draft Environmental Assessment evaluates alternatives for water storage and distribution to improve water storage standards for the Village of Cuba. The recommended plan entails installation of a new 470,000-gallon potable water storage tank to replace the existing tank. Also includes installation of approximately 215 feet of new 6-inch PVC drain line, 121 linear feet of 8-inch fill and distribution line, associated piping to connect the new tank to the existing water system, and one temporary access road.
Pinyon has been contracted to conduct a survey and prepare a Biological Assessment and Biological Evaluation (BA/BE). The BA/BE will be developed in preparation for implementing abandoned uranium mine (AUM) mitigation measures toward permanently remediating public health and safety hazards present at the Red Point Mine, an AUM located on State Trust Land (STL) near Milan, New Mexico. The proposed project area is in McKinley County approximately 13 miles north of Milan (USGS Bluewater 7.5' series quadrangle, in Township 13N, Range 10W, Section 16). The proposed Area of Potential Effect (APE) is accessed through private and tribal land and consists of approximately 103 acres; all of which consist of STL.
Pinyon is preparing a Biological Assessment/Biological Evaluation (BA/BE) for the Abandoned Uranium Mine (AUM) program for the Schmitt Decline mine in McKinley County. The APE is approximately 100 acres with associated access routes.
This is a desktop protected species habitat assessment for a project site in Lea County, New Mexico where Terracon will be managing the remediation, consulting, and closure reports. The scope of work includes daily oversite of remediation onsite, coordinating remedial efforts, sampling, waste manifesting, and load tracking. Activities began on February 3, 2026, and the ending date is pending. A desktop protected species habitat assessment was built in to the project scope

Draft Supplemental EA and FONSI for NRTF Test Stand Construction and Operation, WSMR
The U.S. Army Garrison, White Sands Missile Range has prepared a draft Supplemental Environmental Assessment (EA) with a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act for the Air Force 704th Test Group to construction and operation an outdoor test stand on the campus of the existing National Radar Cross Section Test Facility (NRTF) located on White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico.
I will edit this later. I assume that soil and rocks will be moved around within a subset of the polygon provided. Wildlife surveys, endangered species surveys, wetland delineations, raptor surveys, noxious weed surveys, etc will be performed in 2026. I just want to see a species list please.
The proposed solar project would consist of ground-mounted photovoltaic arrays, electrical inverters (pads), electrical wiring, and above- and below-ground collector wiring. The proposed project would be located on private land approximately 6 miles northwest of Hobbs, Lea County, New Mexico, and would cover approximately 1,517 acres adjoining an existing solar energy project area. The proposed project area is mostly undeveloped but contains existing infrastructure such as access roads, fencing, and transmission lines, and a parcel with active cattle grazing. A site survey for T&E species and other sensitive flora and fauna in the proposed project area was completed by a professional biologist in February 2026. Design plans and mitigation measures are still being finalized for this project, but recommendations to reduce wildlife impacts will include conducting ground disturbing activities outside of migratory bird nesting season(s) and retaining existing vegetation and wildlife habitat features wherever feasible.
On January 26, 2026 the New Mexico Mining and Minerals Division (MMD) received an application from Cibola Resources, LLC (Cibola) to modify the minimal impact exploration mining permit for its Cebolleta Uranium Exploration Project Permit No. CI018EM. The application for permit modification was assigned Modification 26-1 by MMD. The Modification 26-1 application proposes changing the drilling method to a mud pit system versus the previously used closed loop drilling. MMD reviewed the Modification 26-1 application and deemed the application administratively complete.

Northern Natural Gas (Northern) owns and operates natural gas transmission pipeline systems and associated appurtenances in the State of New Mexico. Northern is proposing to replace an approximate 4,600-foot section of pipe along their existing 26-inch-diameter M820B natural gas pipeline at approximate milepost 12.12 via open cut methods. The M820B MP 12.12 Hobbs to Plains Pipe Replacement Project (Project) is located in Township 17 South, Range 38 East, Sections 35 and 36 in Lea County, New Mexico. Construction activities are proposed to start in June 2026, or upon issuance of all applicable permits, and last approximately 30 days. The Project is regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission under an automatic blanket.
Northern proposes to utilize one irregular shaped temporary workspace (TWS) measuring (10.35 acres) and two irregular shaped extra temporary workspaces (ETWS), ETWS 1 measures (8.03 acres) and ETWS 2 measures (3.03 acres), and one irregular shaped Staging Area measuring (2.14 acres). Access to the Project areas will be achieved using the existing M820B pipeline right-of-way from existing public roadways (Hamilton Drive). Project activities may result in up to 21.41 acres of ground disturbance, no ground disturbance is expected in the Staging Area. All Project workspaces were reviewed for environmental concerns centered within an approximate 43.43-acre Environmental Clearance Boundary (ECB).
Ground disturbing activities may include excavation, topsoil segregation, removal of existing pipe section, installation of new pipe section and ancillary equipment; backfill of excavated soil; minor restoration and grading back to pre-construction conditions; and seeding, as required. All ground surface areas will be returned to preconstruction conditions upon project completion.
This request is for due diligence for parcel assessment. Potential development is unknown to the consultant at this time. The project area is approximately 640 acres. We are planning to conduct a preliminary assessment of the existing conditions. At this time, there is no known information on the timing of activities, equipment and/or materials used, extent of ground disturbance, and wildlife surveys or mitigation that have been built in to the project.
