"Working under contract with the U.S. Geological Survey, the MITRE Corporation has developed, and presents here, a detailed Management Plan for the conduct of the Prototype Oil Shale Leasing Program. ... MITRE team members performed two major tasks. First, an outline of a Detailed Development Plan was submitted. This document was prepared so that the Area Oil Shale Supervisor could direct Lessees on the format and content of the plan to be presented by Lessees describing the proposed tract development within the framework of the Lease and applicable governmental environmental regulations. Second, a Management Plan was submitted which set forth the objectives, tasks, procedures and a management structure for the Area Oil Shale Supervisor's Office during the Pre-Development Phase of the Prototype Program. Volumes I and II describe the immediate assistance provided the AOSS by the development of an environmental baseline data matrix, the definition of Lessee report requirements, and the scheduling of inspection, review and approval functions"--Page iii
