important need within the Department
of the Interior and the National Park
Service, and it therefore is necessary to
administratively reestablish the Board to
ensure that its work is not disrupted.

follows consultation with the General
Services Administration. The
reestablishment will be effective on the
date the charter is filed pursuant to
section 9(c) of the Act and 41 CFR 102–
3.70.
Certification: I hereby certify that the
administrative reestablishment of the
