conditions to ensure that desired
condition objectives are met, or that
movement occurs toward those
objectives. Whether or not to allow
livestock grazing on three recently
acquired parcels and one vacant grazing
unit will also be decided, and if so,
under what conditions.
ycherry on PRODPC74 with NOTICES
Scoping Process
Comments and input regarding the
proposal are currently being requested
from the public, other groups and
agencies via direct mailing. Comments
are due by December 3, 2007. Response
to the draft EIS will be sought from the
interested public in May and June 2008.
Comment Requested
This notice of intent initiates the
scoping process which guides the
development of the environmental
impact statement. It is the District’s
desire to involve interested parties in
identifying the issues related to grazing
management. Comments will help the
planning team identify key issues used
to develop adaptive management tools,
monitoring strategies, and alternatives.
Persons who submitted comments
previously need not resubmit those
same comments in response to this
request. Comments submitted
previously will continue to be
considered.
Early Notice of Importance of Public
Participation in Subsequent
Environmental Review: A draft
environmental impact statement will be
prepared for comment. The comment
period on the draft environmental
impact statement will be 45 days from
the date the Environmental Protection
Agency publishes the notice of
availability in the Federal Register.
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 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 environmental impact
statement stage but that are not raised
until after completion of the final
environmental impact statement may be
waived or dismissed by the courts. City

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 45day 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
environmental impact statement.
To assist the Forest Service in
identifying and considering issues and
concerns on the proposed action,
comments on the draft environmental
impact statement should be as specific
as possible. It is also helpful if
comments refer to specific pages or
chapters of the draft statement.
Comments may also address the
adequacy of the draft 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.

Foreign–Trade Zone 38 – Spartanburg
County, SC, Application for
Temporary/Interim Manufacturing
Authority, Kittel Supplier USA, Inc.,
(Automotive Roof/Luggage Racks),
Duncan, SC
An application has been submitted to
the Executive Secretary of the Foreign–
Trade Zones Board (the Board) by the
South Carolina State Ports Authority,
grantee of FTZ 38, requesting
temporary/interim manufacturing (T/
IM) authority within FTZ 38 at the
Kittel Supplier USA, Inc. (KSU) facility
in Duncan, South Carolina. The
application was filed on October 26,
2007.
The KSU facility (25 employees) is
located at 201 Commerce Court within
the Highway 290 Commerce Park in
Duncan (Site 3). Under T/IM
procedures, KSU would assemble
automotive roof/luggage racks (HTSUS
8708.29) for the U.S. market and export.
Foreign components that would be used
in the assembly activity (up to 100% of
total purchases) include: aluminum rails
and support legs (8708.29), plastic
support legs (8708.99), brackets
(8708.29), fasteners (7318.15, 7318.19,
7318.29) and rubber seals (4016.93)
(duty rates: free - 5.7%).
FTZ procedures could exempt KSU
from Customs duty payments on the
foreign components used in production
for export. On domestic shipments
transferred in–bond to U.S. automobile
assembly plants with subzone status, no
duties would be paid on the foreign
components within the roof/luggage
racks until the finished vehicles are
subsequently entered for consumption,
at which time the finished automobile
duty rate (2.5%) could be applied to the
foreign components. For the finished
roof/luggage racks withdrawn directly
by KSU for customs entry, the finished
automotive part rate (2.5%) could be
applied to the foreign inputs noted
above.
