Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 76 / Tuesday, April 21, 2015 / Notices
requires the Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) to establish
rents for certain subsidized rental
projects. Under this legislation, HUD is
charged with the responsibility of
determining the method of rent
adjustments and with facilitating these
adjustments. Because rent adjustments
are considered benefits to project
owners, HUD must also provide some
means for owners to appeal the
decisions made by the Department or
the Contract Administrator. This appeal
process and the information collection
play an important role in preventing
costly litigation and in ensuring the
accuracy of the overall rent adjustment
process.
Respondents (i.e. affected public):
Owners of certain subsidized
multifamily rental projects.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
525.
Estimated Number of Responses: 525.
Frequency of Response: 1.
Average Hours per Response: 2.
Total Estimated Burdens: 1050.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: For a park
that includes five remote islands
spanning 2,228 square miles of land and

experience over the next 20 to 40 years.
The GMP provides a framework for
proactive decision making, which
allows managers to effectively address

future opportunities and problems, such
as resource, operational, administrative,
and visitor use issues facing the park.
The GMP serves as the basis for future
detailed management documents, such
as five-year strategic plans and
implementation plans. In addition, the
wilderness study component determines
if eligible portions of the park should be
proposed for wilderness designation.
The Final EIS/GMP/Wilderness Study
responds to, and incorporates as
appropriate, agency and public
comments received on the Draft Plan/
Wilderness Study/EIS, which was
available for public and agency review
and comment during the extended 90day comment period. Two public
meetings were held to gather input on
the Draft Plan/Wilderness Study/EIS,
one of which also included a public
hearing on the wilderness study. One
thousand, six hundred and twenty
pieces of correspondence were received
during the public review period. Agency
and public comments and NPS
responses are provided in Chapter 5 in
the Final EIS/GMP/Wilderness Study.
The Final EIS/GMP/Wilderness Study
describes and analyzes three
alternatives for Channel Islands
National Park. Alternative 1 (No Action
Alternative) reflects current
management direction and serves as a
baseline for comparison with the other
alternatives. Existing facilities, resource
programs, and visitor opportunities
would continue as they are. No areas of
the park would be proposed for
wilderness designation.
Alternative 2—This alternative
emphasizes ecosystem preservation,
restoration, and preservation of large
expanses in relatively pristine resource
conditions. Resource stewardship
including ecosystem preservation and
restoration, and preservation of natural
landscapes, cultural landscapes,
archeological resources, and historic
structures would continue to be
emphasized. Increased recreational
opportunities would be provided for
visitors to enjoy and appreciate the
park. Under Alternative 2, a total of
66,576 acres of the park would be
proposed for eventual wilderness
designation, primarily on Santa Rosa
and Santa Cruz Islands.
Alternative 3 (Preferred Alternative)—
This alternative emphasizes resource
stewardship and resource preservation;
while also placing more attention on
expanding education and recreational
opportunities and accommodations to
provide diverse visitor experiences on
the islands. Under Alternative 3, as
under Alternative 2, a total of 65,278
acres would be proposed for eventual
wilderness designation.
