DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
National Park Service
Notice of Intent (NOI) To Prepare a
Draft Environmental Impact Statement
(DEIS) for an Off-Road Vehicle
Management Plan (ORV Management
Plan) for Cape Hatteras National
Seashore, NC
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given in
accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA), 42 U.S.C. 4332, and Council on
Environmental Quality regulations, 40
CFR 1506.6, that the U.S. Department of
the Interior, National Park Service
(NPS), will prepare an ORV
Management Plan/EIS. The ORV
Management Plan/EIS will be used to
guide the management and control of
ORVs at Cape Hatteras National
Seashore (the Seashore), North Carolina,
for approximately the next 10 to 15
years. It will also form the basis for a
special regulation that would regulate
ORV use at the Seashore. The ORV
Management Plan/EIS will assess
potential environmental impacts
associated with a range of reasonable
alternatives for managing ORV impacts
on park resources such as threatened
and endangered species, soils, wetlands,
wildlife, and cultural resources.
Socioeconomic impacts and effects on
visitor experience and public safety will
also be analyzed.
DATES: To determine the scope of issues
to be addressed in the ORV Management
Plan/EIS and to identify significant
issues related to the ORV management
at the Seashore, the NPS will conduct
public scoping meetings in North
Carolina at Buxton, Kill Devil Hills, and
Raleigh, North Carolina and in
Washington, DC. Representatives of the
NPS will be available to discuss issues,
resource concerns, and the planning
process at each of the public meetings.
When public scoping meetings have
been scheduled, their locations, dates,
and times will be published in local
newspapers and posted on the NPS
Planning, Environment and Public
Comment (PEPC) Web site at https://
parkplanning.nps.gov/CAHA.
ADDRESSES: Written comments or
requests for information should be
addressed to Mike Murray,
Superintendent, Outer Banks Group,
1401 National Park Drive, Manteo,
North Carolina 27954. Comments may
also be hand delivered to Mike Murray,
Superintendent, Outer Banks Group,
1401 National Park Drive, Manteo,
North Carolina. In addition comments
may be entered on-line in the NPS PEPC

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

information about this project may also

including links to information about the
NEPA planning process and the
regulatory negotiation process.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The ORV
use on the Seashore beaches predates
establishment of the park in 1953. The
ORVs (mostly 4-wheel drive pickup
trucks and sport utility vehicles) are
used to provide vehicular access onto
the Seashore beaches for recreational
and commercial purposes, including
surf fishing, surfing, sunbathing,
swimming, bird watching, scenic
driving, commercial fishing, etc. Ranger
counts of ORVs on the beach have
reached as high as 2,200 a day on
summer holiday weekends.
Executive Order 11644, issued in
1972 and amended by Executive Order
11989 in 1977, states that Federal
agencies allowing ORV use must
designate the specific areas and trails on
public lands on which the use of ORVs
may be permitted, and areas in which
the use of ORVs may not be permitted.
Agency regulations to authorize ORV
use shall provide that designation of
such areas and trails will be based upon
the protection of the resources of the
public lands, promotion of the safety of
all users of those lands, and
minimization of conflicts among the
various uses of those lands. Executive
Order 11644 was issued in response to
the widespread and rapidly increasing
use of ORV on the public lands—‘‘often
for legitimate purposes but also in
frequent conflict with wise land and
resource management practices,
environmental values, and other types
of recreational activity.’’ Therefore, in
accordance with the Executive Order,
the purpose of this action is to develop
an ORV Management Plan/EIS that
considers alternative management
strategies consistent with the park’s
enabling legislation, and park mandates
for preservation of resources and values.
An ORV Management Plan is needed
because lack of an approved plan over
time has led to inconsistent
management of ORV use. As the
popularity of the Seashore continues to
grow, conflicts between visitors who
