AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Fish and Wildlife Service
(Service) announces the availability of a
Final Environmental Impact Statement
(FEIS), which analyzes the
environmental impacts associated with
incidental take permits that were
previously issued under the Endangered
Species Act of 1973 (Act), as amended
(16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), for take of the
Alabama beach mouse (Peromyscus
polionotus ammobates). The FEIS
analyzes the consequences of the
proposed action and alternatives to the
proposed action. The incidental take
permits, previously issued to Gulf
Highlands LLC and Beach Club West,
involve the construction, occupancy,
use, operation, and maintenance of two
residential/recreational condominium
development projects on the Fort
Morgan Peninsula in Baldwin County,
Alabama. For Record of Decision (ROD)
availability, see DATES.
DATES: The ROD will be available no
sooner than December 29, 2006.
ADDRESSES: Persons wishing to review
the FEIS may obtain a copy by writing
either to the Service’s Southeast
Regional Office at Regional Office, 1875
Century Boulevard, Suite 200, Atlanta,
Georgia 30345 (Attn: Endangered
Species Permits), or to the Alabama
Field Office at U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, 1208–B Main Street, Daphne,
Alabama 36526 (Attn: Darren LeBlanc).
Documents will be available for public
inspection by appointment during
normal business hours at both offices.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
October 8, 2002, we advertised a notice
of intent to prepare and EIS for this
project and requested public comment
(67 FR 62809). On October 29, 2002, we
held a public scoping meeting and
invited the public to provide relevant
information on the project. The public
comment period ended on November
22, 2002. We subsequently reopened the
comment period for 15 days between
PO 00000

December 18, 2002 and January 2, 2003

For ROD availability, see DATES.
The FEIS analyzes the preferred
alternative, as well as a full range of
reasonable alternatives and the
associated impacts of each. Alternative
5 (Preferred Alternative) concentrates
the development on the eastern portion
of the site and includes a 909-foot
corridor connecting adjacent primary/
secondary dunes and escarpment to the
Interior. This alternative provides for
dedication of 100.8 acres of Permitteeowned lands into conservation status
via covenants, conditions, and
restrictions attached to the property,
and conditions of any incidental take
permit that might be issued.
The environmental review of this
project is being conducted in
accordance with the requirements of the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321 et
seq.) and its implementing regulations
(40 CFR parts 1500 through 1508), and
