Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 136 / Friday, July 17, 2009 / Notices
transportation project requiring the use
of publicly owned parks, recreation
areas or wildlife and waterfowl refuges,
or significant historic sites, regardless of
ownership, unless there is no prudent
and feasible alternative to using that
land, and the program or project
includes all possible planning to
minimize harm to the public park,
recreation area, wildlife or waterfowl
refuge, or significant site, resulting from
that use. Because FRA is a USDOT
agency, they could not provide funding
for the project if the Board authorizes
construction and operation of an
alternative that requires the use of
resources protected under Section 4(f) of
the USDOT Act if there is a prudent and
feasible alternative that does not use
Section 4(f) resources, unless the use
would result in de minimis impacts to
Section 4(f) resources, which do not
require avoidance.
Note: The Willow-Connector 1–Mac West
alternative would traverse the Willow Creek
State Recreation Area, Nancy Lake State
Recreation Area, Little Susitna Recreation
River, and Susitna Flats State Game Refuge.
The Houston North Segment would cross the
Little Susitna Recreation River. These
recreation and refuge areas are all Section 4(f)
resources and FRA funding for any rail line
alternative affecting these resources could be
prohibited.
g. Identify sites in the proposed
project area that are known to or might
have been contaminated by hazardous
materials, identify sites that are
regulated hazardous waste facilities, and
describes the potential impacts of
constructing and operating the proposed
rail line on or near known hazardous
materials and waste sites.
12. Socioeconomics
The EIS will:
a. Analyze the effects of a potential
influx of construction workers and the
potential increase in demand for local
services interrelated with natural or
physical environmental effects.
b. Propose mitigative measures to
minimize or eliminate potential project
adverse impacts to social and economic
resources, as appropriate.

13. Environmental Justice
The EIS will:
a. Evaluate the potential impacts of
each alternative, including construction
and operation of the rail lines, on local
and regional minority populations and
low-income populations.
b. Propose mitigative measures to
minimize or eliminate potential project
impacts on environmental justice issues,
as appropriate.

Cumulative Impacts
The EIS will analyze cumulative
impacts for the alternatives for the
proposed construction and operation of
new rail facilities on the human and
natural environment, or in the case of
the no-action alternative, of the lack of
these activities. SEA will analyze the
potential additive effects of the
proposed action and alternatives to the
effects on applicable resources of
relevant past, present, and reasonably
foreseeable projects or actions in the
area of the proposed action. SEA will
determine appropriate time and
geographic boundaries for applicable
resource-specific analyses in order to
focus the cumulative impacts analysis
on truly meaningful effects. Resources
addressed may include the categories of
geology and soils, water resources
including wetlands and other waters of
the U.S., biological resources, cultural
and historic resources, subsistence, air
quality, noise and vibration, energy
resources, transportation safety and
delay, navigation, land use,
socioeconomics as they relate to
physical changes in the environment,
and environmental justice. The EIS will
review all relevant past, concurrent, and
reasonably foreseeable actions that
could result in collectively significant
impacts to each of the categories of
impacts listed above, and to any other
categories of impacts that may be
addressed as a result of comments
received during the scoping process or
the Draft EIS comment period.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
BPD proposes to modify our system of

Security System (Treasury/BPD.004) to
revise the ‘‘Categories of Records’’ to
include biographic and biometric
information. The records in this system
cover BPD employees, employees of
contractors and service companies, and
official visitors. We control and verify
access to our facilities. As part of the
access control, we may obtain and use
biographic information (name,
addresses, date of birth, Social Security
Number) and biometric information
(fingerprints, digital color photograph,
height, weight, hair/eye color)
concerning individuals. We also
propose to revise ‘‘Retrievability’’ to
state that records in this system can be
retrieved by the biographic and
biometric information. BPD last
published its systems of records in the
Federal Register in their entirety on July
23, 2008, at 73 FR 42904.
We have submitted the report of an
altered system of records to the Office
of Management and Budget and to
Congress, as required by 5 U.S.C. 552a(r)
and Appendix I to OMB Circular A–130,
‘‘Federal Agency Responsibilities for
Maintaining Records About

Abstract: On December 7, 2007, the agencies issued the joint final
rule titled Risk-Based Capital Standards: Advanced Capital Adequacy
Framework (final rule) implementing a new risk-based regulatory capital
framework for institutions in the United States. The final rule
requires certain large or internationally active banks and bank holding
companies (BHCs) to (1) adopt a written implementation plan, (2) update
that plan for any mergers, (3) obtain prior written approvals for the
use of certain approaches for determining risk-weighted assets, and (4)
make certain public disclosures regarding their capital ratios, their
components, and information on implicit support provided to a
securitization. There are no required reporting forms associated with
this information collection.
