recreational and mining claim access.
Possible Alternatives
The NEPA implementing regulations
require that an Environmental Impact
Statement evaluate alternatives. possible
alternatives to be considered in the Draft
Environmental Impact Statement
include: No activities in Inventory
Roadless Areas and decommissioning of
the end of #2002 Road from the junction
of the #2002C Road.
Additional alternatives may arise
from public comments, analysis or new
information.

Decision To Be Made
The decisions to be made in response
to this analysis include (1) Are
vegetation management and restoration
activities needed and if so where, what
activities, when and how would they be
implemented? (2) What transportation
systems (road and trail) are necessary in
the analysis area and how will they be
managed? (3) Are the fish habitat and
water quality improvement activities for
Forest Plan upward trend requirements
needed and if so where, when and how
would they be implemented? (4) What
mitigation is needed to assure forest
management activities are consistent
with the Nez Perce Forest Plan and
environmental law? (5) is the
amendment, for soils, to the Nez Perce
Forest Plan necessary to implement the
proposed actions and other future
activities? (6) What implementation and
effectives monitoring is needed?
Estimate Dates
The responsible official for this
project is the Nez Perce Forest
Supervisor. Comments to this notice
should be sent to the address and
contacts identified above and should be
submitted within 30 days of publication

publishes the notice of availability in
the Federal Register.
Reviewers should provide their
comments during the comment period.
Timely comments will enable the
agency to analyze and respond to them
at one time and to use them in the
preparation of the Environmental
Impact Statement, thus avoiding undue
delay in the decision-making process.
Furthermore, the more specific and
substantive the comments, the better for
reviewers and the agency alike.
Reviewers have an obligation to
‘‘structure their participation in the
National Environmental Policy Act
process so that it is meaningful and
alerts the agency to the reviewer’s
position and contentions.’’ Vermont

concerns that could have been raised at
the draft stage may therefore be forfeited
if not raised until after completion of
the Final Environmental Impact
Statement. Comments on the draft
should be specific and should address
the adequacy of the draft and the merits
of the alternatives discussed (40 CFR

ACTION: Notification of a request for
EFPs to conduct experimental fishing;
request for comments.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This request for the
continuation of an EFP involves the
non-destructive collection of size
frequency and population data on legal
and sublegal lobsters as part of an
ongoing research project to monitor the
offshore lobster fishery in Lobster
Management Area 3. Continuation of
this EFP, until December 31, 2008,
would not involve the authorization of
any additional trap gear in the area. A
maximum of seven participating
commercial fishing vessels will
continue the collection of data on the
composition of lobsters in four general
offshore study areas in a collaborative
effort with the Atlantic Offshore
Lobstermen’s Association (AOLA).
Continuation of this EFP would
authorize each participating commercial
fishing vessel to continue to utilize one
modified juvenile lobster collector trap
to collect population data. The lobster
trap modifications are to the escape
vents, and trap entrance head.
Therefore, this modified trap would
impact its environment no differently
than the regular lobster trap it replaces
and will add no additional traps to the
area. After data is collected on lobsters
in the trap, all sub-legal lobsters will be
immediately returned to the sea. The
EFP waives the American lobster escape
vent requirement for a maximum of one
trap per vessel for a maximum of seven
vessels in the program.
The Director, State, Federal and
Constituent Programs Office, Northeast
Region, NMFS (Office Director) has
made a preliminary determination that
the subject EFP application contains all
the required information and warrants
further consideration. The Office
Director has also made a preliminary
determination that continuation of the
activities authorized under the EFPs
would be consistent with the goals and
objectives of Federal management of the
American lobster resource. However,
further review and consultation may be
