In addition, you must submit GIS data in a locally projected Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) North American Datum (NAD) 1983 ESRI shape file or geodatabase format (e.g., UTM zone 13N NAD83). For seismic operations, your data must include clearly attributed locations of operations and facilities, including staging areas, access routes to and within the project area, source and receiver point locations and lines, shot point locations, surface ownership, and any Federal lands under lease. You must identify the number of acres within the project area by Federal surface (by agency), state surface, fee surface, and other, and the estimated acreage of surface disturbance.

2.Do you hold any Federal leases within the project area? Yes No (If yes, indicate location and lease numbers on an attached map.) There is no fee for operations conducted on your Federal lease (outside of Alaska).
