FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Currently, there is no cellular service in the Bullfrog Marina area, which receives over 200,000 visitors per year. The cellular antennas are to be installed on the exterior of the Defiance House Lodge. The Defiance House Lodge is a non-historic 48 room hotel in the Bullfrog developed area. The proposed site includes six 51 inch by 13 inch by 3 inch rectangular panel antennas mounted on the faccade of the Defiance ¸ House Lodge and a nearby ground mounted associated radio equipment shielded by a cedar privacy fence matching existing fencing. The antenna panels do not visibly protrude above the roofline of the lodge and are painted to match the lodge color scheme. Neither the antennas nor the associated equipment will have any adverse effects on the area’s scenery or visual resources. The staff at Glen Canyon National Recreation Area has completed a review and analysis pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the National Historic Preservation Act, the Telecommunications Act of 1996, and National Park Service requirements, policy and regulations. The NEPA analysis has determined that there will not be any adverse effects on the park’s natural or cultural resources resulting from this proposal; therefore, this project has been categorically excluded from further analysis under NEPA. Copies of the NEPA analysis will be available at Glen Canyon NRA, 691 Scenic View Drive, Page, AZ 86040, or can be requested by writing to Glen Canyon NRA, Attention Stan Burman, PO Box 1507, Page, AZ 86040, or by going to https://parkplanning.nps.gov/ jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Nancie E.
