Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 8 / Thursday, January 12, 2006 / Notices
Nominations to the National Register of
Historic Places are voluntary.
Estimated annual reporting burden:
52,824 hours, broken down as follows:
196 nominations submitted under
existing MPS @ 18 hrs. each = 3,528;
1,186 newly proposed individual
nominations @ 36 hrs. each = 42,696; 55
newly proposed MPS @ 120 hrs. each =
6,600.
Estimated average burden hours per
response: Depending on which form is
used, the average burden hours per
response may vary considerably because
of many complex factors. In general, to
fulfill minimum program requirements
describing the nominated property and
demonstrating its eligibility under the
criteria, the average burden hours range
from 18 hours for a nomination
proposed under an existing Multiple
Property Submission (MPS), to 36 hours
for a newly proposed individual
nomination, to 120 hours for a newly
proposed MPS. Continuation sheets
(10–900–a) are used for additional
information for both the individual
nomination form and the multiple
property form, as needed. As such, the
calculation of average burden hours per
response for the continuation sheets has
been included in the average
calculations above for the nomination
form (10–900) and the multiple property
form (10–900–b).
Estimated average number of
respondents: 1,513.
Estimated frequency of response:
1,513 annually.
Dated: December 14, 2005.

Notice of Availability
AGENCY:
National Park Service, Interior.
SUMMARY: National Park Service (NPS)
has prepared a Final Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) for Acadia
National Park, Schoodic General
Management Plan Amendment, which
is now available from the NPS.
Request for copies should
be sent to Superintendent, Acadia
National Park, P.O. Box 177, Bar Harbor,
Maine 04609.
ADDRESSES:
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Superintendent at 207–288–8703.
The NPS
prepared a Draft General Management
Plan Amendment (GMPA)/Draft EIS for
Acadia National Park, Maine, pursuant
to section 102(2)(c) of the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969. The
draft was made available for public
review for 60 days (September–
November 2004), during which time the
NPS distributed over 160 copies of the
plan. Also, the full text and graphics
were posted on the park’s NPS Planning
Web sites. NPS received 14 comment
letters and 50 people participated in a
public meeting held October 20, 2004.
Oral and written comments were
considered by the NPS and informed the
preparation of the final environmental
impact statement. The consensus of the
public comment was that the NPS was
pursuing the correct path for Acadia
National Park in Alternative C, the
preferred alternative. An abbreviated
format is used for the final EIS because
changes to the Draft GMPA/Draft EIS are
confined primarily to factual corrections
and explanations as to why comments
do not warrant further agency response.
Use of this format is in compliance with
the 1978 regulations (40 CFR 1503.4(c))
for the National Environmental Policy
Act.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The National Park Service will
execute a Record of Decision no sooner
than 30 days following publication by
the Environmental Protection Agency of
