Requirements under the Uniform
Relocation Assistance and Real Property
Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (as
amended).
OMB Control Number, if applicable:
2506–0121.
Description of the Need for the
Information and proposed use: Agencies
receiving HUD funding for projects
involving relocation of owners or

(effective February 3, 2005). Changes in
these regulations which will impact on
recordkeeping requirements are:
Establishing a list of items to be include
in interviews with displaced businesses

an agency from proposing or requesting
that a displaced person waive rights or
entitlements under the URA (24.207(f)),
including the cost of professional home
inspections in replacement housing
payments for homeowners
(24.401(e)(4)), and implementing the use
of HUD low income limits to determine
eligibility for URA benefits applicable to
low income persons (24.402(b)(2)).
Agency form numbers, if applicable:
None.
Estimation of the total numbers of
hours needed to prepare the Information
collection including number of
respondents, frequency of response, and
hours of response.
Status of the proposed information
collection: Revision due to change in
URA regulations.
Number of Respondents: 2000.

Burden Hours: 280,000.

HUD–40054 and 40058 will be affected
by these changes and will be revised to
conform to the new regulations and
improve the flow of the form. The HUD–
40055, 40056, and 40057 will be revised
to more closely track the existing

the HUD–40061 to eliminate the
requirement that the agency make
adjustments to the asking price for a
property to reflect an anticipated sale
price (this requirement was eliminated
in the new rule). No changes are being
made in the HUD–40072.

advises the public that we intend to

and Recreation (CDPR), a joint
Environmental Impact Statement/
Environmental Impact Report (EIS/EIR)
on the proposed Habitat Conservation
Plan for the San Luis Obispo Coast
District and Oceano Dunes State
Vehicular Recreation Area (HCP). The
proposed HCP is being prepared under
section 10(a)(1)(B) of the Endangered
Species Act of 1973 as amended, (ESA)
(16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). The incidental
take permit is needed to authorize the

We provide this notice to: (1) Describe
the proposed action and possible
alternatives; (2) advise other Federal
and State agencies, affected Tribes, and
the public of our intent to prepare an
EIS/EIR; (3) announce the initiation of a
30-day public scoping period; and (4)
obtain suggestions and information on
the scope of issues and alternatives to be
included in the EIS/EIR.

order to allow sufficient time to process
requests, please call no later than one
week before the public meeting.
Information regarding this proposed
action is available in alternative formats
upon request.
Background
Section 9 of the ESA and Federal
regulations prohibit the ‘‘take’’ of a fish
or wildlife species listed as endangered
or threatened. Under the ESA, the
following activities are defined as take:
harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot,
wound, kill, trap, capture or collect
listed animal species, or attempt to
engage in such conduct (16 U.S.C.
1538). However, under section 10(a) of
the ESA, we may issue permits to
authorize ‘‘incidental take’’ of listed
species. Incidental take is defined by the
ESA as take that is incidental to, and not
the purpose of, carrying out an
otherwise lawful activity. Regulations
governing permits for threatened and
endangered species are at 50 CFR 13
and 50 CFR 17.
Take of listed plant species is not
prohibited under the ESA and cannot be
authorized under an ESA section 10
permit. We propose to include plant
species on the permit in recognition of
the conservation benefits provided for
them under the HCP. All species
included on the permit would receive
assurances under the Service’s ‘‘No
Surprises’’ regulation, if at the time of
issuance of the incidental take permit
the ‘‘No Surprises’’ regulation is in
effect (63 FR 8859).
CDPR intends to request a permit
authorizing the incidental take of 4
animal species for approximately 15
