Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 78 / Tuesday April 24, 2007 / Notices
cooperation with the Pine Ridge Oglala
Sioux, is preparing an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) for a General
Management Plan (GMP) for the South
Unit of Badlands National Park. The
GMP will prescribe the resource
conditions and visitor experiences that
are to be achieved and maintained in
the South Unit over the next 15 to 20
years.
To facilitate sound planning and
environmental assessment, the NPS
intends to gather information necessary
for the preparation of the EIS and obtain
suggestions and information from other
agencies and the public on the scope of
issues to be addressed in the EIS.
Comments and participation in this
scoping process are invited.
Participation in the planning process
will be encouraged and facilitated by
various means, including newsletters
and open houses or meetings. The NPS
will conduct public scoping meetings to
explain the planning process and to
solicit opinion about issues to address
in the GMP/EIS.
Notification of all such meetings will
be announced in the local press and in
the NPS newsletters.
ADDRESSES: Additionally, if you wish to
comment on any issues associated with
GMP, you may submit your comments
by any one of several methods. You may
mail or hand-deliver comments to
Superintendent, Badlands National
Park, 25216 Ben Reifel Road, Interior,
South Dakota 57740. You may provide
comments electronically by entering
them into the NPS’s Planning,
Environment and Public Comment Web
site https://parkplanning.nps.gov.
Information will be available for public
review and comment from the Office of
the Superintendent at the above
address.
Requests to be added to the project
mailing list should be sent to Ms.
Pamela Livermont, Badlands National
Park, 25216 Ben Reifel Road, Interior,
South Dakota 57750; telephone 605–
433–5281; or e-mail
Pamela_Livermont@nps.gov.
Before including your address,
telephone number, e-mail address, or
other personal identifying information
in your comments, you should be aware
that your entire comment (including
your personal identifying information)
may be made publicly available at any
time. While you can ask us in your

identifying information from public
review, we cannot guarantee that we
will be able to do so. We will make all
submissions from organizations or
businesses, from individuals identifying

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Superintendent Paige Baker, Badlands
National Park, 25216 Ben Reifel Road,
Interior, South Dakota 57750, telephone
605–433–5280.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Composed
of two largely undeveloped and remote
tracts of land totaling 140,000 acres, the
South Unit lies entirely within the Pine
Ridge Oglala Sioux Reservation. The
South Unit is administered to provide
for the care, maintenance, and
preservation of prehistoric, historic,
scientific, and scenic interest, and to
develop facilities that will provide for
public use and enjoyment.
As stated above, the GMP will
prescribe the resource conditions and
visitor experiences that are to be
achieved and maintained in the South
Unit over the next 15 to 20 years. The
clarification of what must be achieved
according to law and policy will be
based on review of the unit’s purpose,
significance, special mandates, and the
body of laws and policies directing park
management. Based on determinations
of desired conditions, the GMP will
outline the kinds of resource
management activities, visitor activities,
and appropriate future development. A
range of reasonable management
alternatives will be developed through
this planning process and will include,
at minimum, a no-action alternative and
a preferred alternative. To facilitate
sound analysis of environmental
impacts, the NPS is gathering
information necessary for the
preparation of an associated EIS.
A GMP for the North Unit was
completed in 2006; the South Unit GMP
will be the equivalent of Volume 2.
Together, the two volumes will
constitute the GMP for Badlands
National Park.

pathway within the road corridor along
the Moose-Wilson Road from the
Granite Canyon Entrance to the
Laurance S. Rockefeller (LSR) Preserve;
and realignment of the Moose-Wilson
Road in two areas, with the existing
alignments being restored to natural
conditions. This course of action was
analyzed in the Final Environmental
Impact Statement and combines two
alternatives presented in the Draft
Environmental Impact Statement. Four
other alternatives were analyzed in the
Draft and Final Environmental Impact
Statements. The full range of foreseeable
environmental consequences was
assessed, and appropriate mitigating
measures were identified.
The Record of Decision includes a
statement of the decision made,
synopses of other alternatives
considered, the basis for the decision, a
description of the environmentally
preferable alternative, a finding on
impairment of park resources and

Act of 1969, the National Park Service
(NPS) announces the availability of the
Record of Decision (ROD) Niobrara
National Scenic River (Scenic River)
General Management Plan/final
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS),
Scenic River. On March 26, the Midwest
Regional Director approved the ROD for
the project. As soon as practicable, the
NPS will begin to implement the
Preferred Alternative contained in the
final EIS issued on February 23.
Management Alternative B develops a
vision for cooperative management of
the Scenic River, with the NPS
providing stewardship directly and
through Federal, State, and local
partners on a landscape that would
remain largely in private ownership.
The alternative’s boundary protects, as
equitably as possible, the river’s
outstandingly remarkable scenic,
recreational, geologic, fish and wildlife,
and paleontological values. This
alternative encompasses 23,074 acres
and is within the acreage limitations of
the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act.
This course of action and three
alternatives were analyzed in the draft
and the final EIS. The full range of
foreseeable environmental
consequences was assessed and
appropriate mitigating measures were
identified.
The ROD includes a statement of the
decision made, synopses of other
alternatives considered, the basis for the
decision, a description of the
environmentally preferable alternative,
a finding on impairment of park
resources and values, a listing of
measures to minimize environmental
harm, and an overview of public
