Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 137 / Wednesday, July 18, 2007 / Notices
The Forest Service believes, at this
early stage, it is important to give
reviewers notice of several court rulings
related to public participation in the
environmental review process. First,
reviewers of draft supplemental
environmental impact statements must
structure their participation in the
environmental review of the proposal so
that it is meaningful and alerts an
agency to the reviewer’s position and
contentions. Vermont Yankee Nuclear
Power Corp. v. NRDC, 435 U.S. 519, 553
(1978). Also, environmental objections
that could be raised at the draft
supplemental environmental impact
statement stage but that are not raised
until after completion of the final
supplemental environmental impact
statement may be waived or dismissed
by the courts. City of Angoon v. Hodel,
803 F.2d 1016, 1022 (9th Cir. 1986) and
Wisconsin Heritages, Inc. v. Harris, 490
F. Supp. 1334, 1338 (E.D. Wis. 1980).
Because of these court rulings, it is very
important that those interested in this
proposed action participate by the close
of the 45-day comment period so that
substantive comments and objections
are made available to the Forest Service
at a time when it can meaningfully
consider them and respond to them in
the final supplemental environmental
impact statement.
To assist the Forest Service in
identifying and considering issues and
concerns on the proposed action,
comments on the draft supplemental
environmental impact statement should
be as specific as possible. It is also
helpful if comments refer to specific
pages of the draft supplement.
Comments may also address the
adequacy of the draft supplemental
environmental impact statement or the
merits of the alternatives formulated
and discussed in the statement.
Reviewers may wish to refer to the
Council on Environmental Quality
Regulations for implementing the
procedural provisions of the National
Environmental Policy act at 40 CFR
1503.3 in addressing these points.
Comments received, including the
names and addresses of those who
comment, will be considered part of the
public record on this proposal and will
be available for public inspection.
