Notice to terminate an Environmental Impact Statement Process and notice of intent to supplement an Environmental Impact Statement. AGENCY: ACTION: SUMMARY: Pursuant to Section 102(2)(c) of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, as amended (Pub. L. 91–190, 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and in response to public comment, the Presidio Trust (Trust) is notifying interested parties that it will: (1) Terminate the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) process for the Presidio Museum in the Main Post district of the Presidio of San Francisco, California (Presidio), (2) supplement the final EIS for the May 2002 Presidio Trust Management Plan (PTMP) to consider proposed changes in the actions analyzed for the Main Post district in the original NEPA document; and (3) engage in a scoping process to seek public input on the supplemental EIS. The supplemental EIS will address the environmental impacts of various proposals that would modify previous Trust decisions regarding the Main Post district. The public scoping process will determine the range of actions, alternatives and impacts to be considered in the supplemental EIS. DATES: Written comments or suggestions to assist in identifying any significant environmental issues and in determining the appropriate scope of the supplemental EIS should be submitted on or before December 15, 2007. A public meeting will be held on November 21, 2007 beginning at 6:30 p.m., at the Presidio Officers’ Club (50 Moraga Avenue) to accept comments on the scope of the supplemental EIS. ADDRESSES: Electronic comments concerning this notice should be sent to Mainpost@presidiotrust.gov. Written comments may be faxed to Main Post at 415.561.5308. Written comments may PO 00000 Frm 00086 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 61191 also be submitted to Main Post, Attn: Compliance Coordinator, The Presidio Trust, 34 Graham Street, P.O. Box 29052, San Francisco, CA 94129–0052. Comments previously received regarding the Presidio Museum EIS or the Presidio Lodge Environmental Assessment (EA) need not be repeated; these comments will inform the Trust’s preparation of the supplemental EIS. Please be aware that all written comments and information submitted will be made available to the public, including, without limitation, any postal address, e-mail address, phone number, or other information contained in each submission. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register notice of August 14, 2007 (72 FR 45469), the Trust notified interested parties it was preparing an EIS for a proposed museum at the Main Post, and that the agency was seeking public input through scoping. On September 24, 2007, the Trust held a public meeting on the scope of the EIS at which 24 members of the public spoke. Before scoping ended on October 15, 2007, the Trust received 86 comment letters and electronic mails, including one petition with over 125 signatures (on file and available for public review in the Trust library). Several of the interested parties urged that the proposed museum, when viewed with other proposed actions, would have cumulatively significant impacts on the environment and should therefore be addressed in a single EIS. The Trust is responding to this public concern in its decision to supplement the final PTMP EIS in which it will assess the cumulative impacts of all reasonably foreseeable Trust actions at the Main Post. The Trust has elected to take a fresh look at this broader scope in order to better meet its NEPA compliance responsibilities and to engage more effectively the public in its decision making. The Trust will supplement the final PTMP EIS to take into account new circumstances or information that is relevant to the Main Post. The subsequent analysis will provide a procedural framework for dealing with upcoming decisions at the Main Post. Proposed changes in the actions analyzed at the Main Post in the final PTMP EIS that will be reviewed in the supplemental EIS include the Presidio Museum, the Presidio Lodge (the EA for which is also being terminated through this notice), other potential building construction or demolition within the district, the El Presidio site, and parking and circulation improvements. The Trust intends to proceed with the E:\FR\FM\29OCN1.SGM 29OCN1 61192 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 208 / Monday, October 29, 2007 / Notices signature of the Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the Main Parade EA as well as the International Center to End Violence (Building 100) FONSI as these proposed actions are consistent with the PTMP, are independently justified, do not involve significant impacts, and would not prejudice other decisions on the Main Post. Alternatives to be considered for analysis in the supplemental EIS include the planning concept set forth in the PTMP for the Main Post (PTMP action), an updated planning concept for the Main Post based on new information arising after the PTMP (proposed action), and minimal planning (no action). Potential impacts to be evaluated in the supplemental EIS include those on parking and traffic, visual resources, those to the National Historic Landmark district, and cumulative impacts. Compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act will be a component of the supplemental EIS utilizing the public input, alternatives development and assessment processes to address historic preservation requirements. The availability of the draft supplemental EIS (expected to occur in mid 2008) for comment will be announced through an EPA-published notice in the Federal Register, through postings on the Trust’s Web site at https://www.presidio.gov and regular electronic newsletter (Presidio E-news), as well as direct mailing to the project mailing list and other appropriate means.

Title and Purpose of information collection: Financial Disclosure Statement: OMB 3220–0127 Under Section 10 of the Railroad Retirement Act and Section 2(d) of the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act, the RRB may recover overpayments of annuities, pensions, death benefits, unemployment benefits, and sickness benefits that were made erroneously. An overpayment may be waived if the beneficiary was not at fault in causing the overpayment and recovery would cause financial hardship. The regulations for the recovery and waiver of erroneous payments are contained in 20 CFR parts 255 and 340. The RRB utilizes Form DR–423, Financial Disclosure Statement, to obtain information about the overpaid beneficiary’s income, debts, and expenses if that person indicates that (s)he cannot make restitution for the overpayment. The information is used to determine if the overpayment should be waived as wholly or partially uncollectible. If waiver is denied, the information is used to determine the size and frequency of installment payments. The beneficiary is made aware of the overpayment by letter and is offered a variety of methods for recovery. One response is requested of each respondent. Completion is voluntary. However, failure to provide the requested information may result in a denial of the waiver request. The RRB proposes to revise Form DR–423 to delete items requesting the railroad employee’s Social Security Number and their spouses Social Security Number. Non-burden impacting formatting and editorial changes are also proposed.

SUMMARY: Pursuant to Section 102(2)(c) of the National Environmental 
Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, as amended (Pub. L. 91-190, 42 U.S.C. 4321 
et seq.) and in response to public comment, the Presidio Trust (Trust) 
is notifying interested parties that it will: (1) Terminate the 
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) process for the Presidio Museum in 
the Main Post district of the Presidio of San Francisco, California 
(Presidio), (2) supplement the final EIS for the May 2002 Presidio 
Trust Management Plan (PTMP) to consider proposed changes in the 
actions analyzed for the Main Post district in the original NEPA 
document; and (3) engage in a scoping process to seek public input on 
the supplemental EIS. The supplemental EIS will address the 
environmental impacts of various proposals that would modify previous 
Trust decisions regarding the Main Post district. The public scoping 
process will determine the range of actions, alternatives and impacts 
to be considered in the supplemental EIS.

DATES: Written comments or suggestions to assist in identifying any 
significant environmental issues and in determining the appropriate 
scope of the supplemental EIS should be submitted on or before December 
15, 2007. A public meeting will be held on November 21, 2007 beginning 
at 6:30 p.m., at the Presidio Officers' Club (50 Moraga Avenue) to 
accept comments on the scope of the supplemental EIS.

ADDRESSES: Electronic comments concerning this notice should be sent to 
Mainpost@presidiotrust.gov. Written comments may be faxed to Main Post 
at 415.561.5308. Written comments may also be submitted to Main Post, 
Attn: Compliance Coordinator, The Presidio Trust, 34 Graham Street, 
P.O. Box 29052, San Francisco, CA 94129-0052. Comments previously 
received regarding the Presidio Museum EIS or the Presidio Lodge 
Environmental Assessment (EA) need not be repeated; these comments will 
inform the Trust's preparation of the supplemental EIS. Please be aware 
that all written comments and information submitted will be made 
available to the public, including, without limitation, any postal 
address, e-mail address, phone number, or other information contained 
in each submission.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register notice of August 14, 
2007 (72 FR 45469), the Trust notified interested parties it was 
preparing an EIS for a proposed museum at the Main Post, and that the 
agency was seeking public input through scoping. On September 24, 2007, 
the Trust held a public meeting on the scope of the EIS at which 24 
members of the public spoke. Before scoping ended on October 15, 2007, 
the Trust received 86 comment letters and electronic mails, including 
one petition with over 125 signatures (on file and available for public 
review in the Trust library). Several of the interested parties urged 
that the proposed museum, when viewed with other proposed actions, 
would have cumulatively significant impacts on the environment and 
should therefore be addressed in a single EIS. The Trust is responding 
to this public concern in its decision to supplement the final PTMP EIS 
in which it will assess the cumulative impacts of all reasonably 
foreseeable Trust actions at the Main Post. The Trust has elected to 
take a fresh look at this broader scope in order to better meet its 
NEPA compliance responsibilities and to engage more effectively the 
public in its decision making.
    The Trust will supplement the final PTMP EIS to take into account 
new circumstances or information that is relevant to the Main Post. The 
subsequent analysis will provide a procedural framework for dealing 
with upcoming decisions at the Main Post. Proposed changes in the 
actions analyzed at the Main Post in the final PTMP EIS that will be 
reviewed in the supplemental EIS include the Presidio Museum, the 
Presidio Lodge (the EA for which is also being terminated through this 
notice), other potential building construction or demolition within the 
district, the El Presidio site, and parking and circulation 
improvements. The Trust intends to proceed with the

signature of the Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the Main 
Parade EA as well as the International Center to End Violence (Building 
100) FONSI as these proposed actions are consistent with the PTMP, are 
independently justified, do not involve significant impacts, and would 
not prejudice other decisions on the Main Post.
    Alternatives to be considered for analysis in the supplemental EIS 
include the planning concept set forth in the PTMP for the Main Post 
(PTMP action), an updated planning concept for the Main Post based on 
new information arising after the PTMP (proposed action), and minimal 
planning (no action). Potential impacts to be evaluated in the 
supplemental EIS include those on parking and traffic, visual 
resources, those to the National Historic Landmark district, and 
cumulative impacts. Compliance with Section 106 of the National 
Historic Preservation Act will be a component of the supplemental EIS 
utilizing the public input, alternatives development and assessment 
processes to address historic preservation requirements.
    The availability of the draft supplemental EIS (expected to occur 
in mid 2008) for comment will be announced through an EPA-published 
notice in the Federal Register, through postings on the Trust's Web 
site at https://www.presidio.gov and regular electronic newsletter 
(Presidio E-news), as well as direct mailing to the project mailing 
list and other appropriate means.
