ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Secretary of the Interior
is giving notice of the renewal of the Big
Cypress National Preserve Off-Road
Vehicle Advisory Committee to offer
recommendations, alternatives and
possible solutions to management of offroad vehicles at Big Cypress National
Preserve.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Pedro Ramos, Superintendent, Big
Cypress National Preserve, 33100
Tamiami Trail E, Ochopee, Florida

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Big
Cypress National Preserve Off-Road
Vehicle Advisory Committee has been
established as directed in the Off-Road
Vehicle Management Plan, 2000. This
plan guides the National Park Service in
its management of recreational off-road
vehicle (ORV) use in Big Cypress
National Preserve, and tiers off of the
Preserve’s 1991 General Management
Plan. The National Park Service agreed
to prepare an ORV management plan as
part of a settlement agreement
negotiated in 1995 between the Florida
Biodiversity Project and several Federal
agencies and bureaus. The agreement
settled a lawsuit which alleged failure
by the agencies to comply with Federal
statutes, including the Clean Water Act,
PO 00000
Frm 00076
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
the Endangered Species Act, and the
National Environmental Policy Act.
The Off-Road Vehicle Management
Plan, 2000 (p. 29) states ‘‘Under the
proposed action, the National Park
Service would establish an advisory
committee of concerned citizens to
examine issues and make
recommendations regarding the
management of ORVs in the Preserve.
The establishment of the committee
meets the legal requirements of the 1972
Federal Advisory Committee Act
(FACA) (Pub. L. 92–463, 1972, as
amended). The advisory committee
provides access to the extensive
knowledge available in the public arena
and offers advice to the National Park
Service in the decision-making process
in a manner consistent with FACA. This
committee is an element of the adaptive
management approach used to develop
best management practices for ORV
use.’’
As part of the ORV management plan,
NPS committed to establishing the ORV
Advisory Committee. In addition, the
establishment of the Committee fulfills
the agency’s policy of civic engagement.
This committee strengthens the
relationship that the NPS has with its
partners and communities. The
Committee is composed of individuals
that represent (1) sportsmen/ORV users;
(2) landowners; (3) academia; (4)
environmental advocates; (5) the state
government; and (6) Tribes.
Certification: I hereby certify that the
renewal of the Big Cypress Off-Road
Vehicle Advisory Committee is
necessary and in the public interest in
connection with the performance of
duties imposed on the Department of
the Interior by the Act of August 25,
1916, 16 U.S.C. 1 et seq., and other
statutes relating to the administration of
the National Park System.
Dated September 30, 2009.
