SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Department is submitting the proposed
information collection to OMB for
review, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35, as amended).
This Notice is soliciting comments
from members of the public and affected
agencies concerning the proposed
collection of information to: (1) Evaluate
whether the proposed collection is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (2) Evaluate the
accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information; (3) Enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (4) Minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on those who are to respond; including
the use of appropriate automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses.
This Notice also lists the following
information:
Title of Proposal: Federal Labor
Standards Payee Verification and
Payment Processing.
OMB Control Number, if applicable:
2501–0021.
Description of the need for this
information and proposed use: HUD,
and State, local, and Tribal agencies
administering HUD-assisted programs
must enforce Federal labor standards
requirements, including the payment of
prevailing wage rates to laborers and
mechanics employed on HUD-assisted
construction and maintenance work that
is covered by these requirements.
Enforcement activities include securing
funds to ensure the payment of wage
restitution that has been or may be
found due to laborers and mechanics
who were employed on HUD-assisted
projects, and the payment of liquidated
damages that may be assessed for
violations of Contract Work Hours and
Safety Standards Act (CWHSSA)
overtime violations. Ultimately, these
VerDate Nov<24>2008

Jkt 220001
funds are deposited to an account in the
U.S. Treasury. If the labor standards
discrepancies are resolved, HUD
refunds associated amounts to the
depositor. As underpaid laborers and
mechanics are located, HUD sends wage
restitution payments to the affected
workers. Liquidated damages assessed
for CWHSSA overtime violations are
retained by HUD.
In order to make refunds and wage
restitution payments, HUD must verify
the identity of the payee to ensure that
the refund is made to the correct
depositor or wage restitution to the
correct worker before payment is made.
In order to complete these verifications,
HUD will request information such as
the depositor’s or payee’s tax
identification number (i.e., employer
identification number or Social Security
Number); the project name or number;
and/or the worker’s employer’s name.
All refunds from labor standards
deposit accounts are made,
electronically. Depositors entitled to a
refund must provide to HUD the name,
address, and the account information for
the banking institution to which the
depositor wants the refund sent. Wage
restitution payments may be made by
check or electronically, at the payee’s
choice. HUD must collect either the
payee’s mailing address, so that a check
may be sent to them, or banking
information for an electronic payment.
Agency form numbers: HUD–4734,
Labor Standards Deposit Voucher. This
form is completed by HUD staff after
depositor or payee verification and the
collection of payment processing
information, i.e., banking details or
mailing address.
Members of affected public:
Developers and prime contractors
engaged on HUD-assisted construction
or maintenance work subject to Federal
labor standards requirements;
construction and maintenance laborers
and mechanics employed on HUDassisted projects subject to Federal labor
standards requirements that are entitled
to wage restitution.
Estimation of the total numbers of
hours needed to prepare the information
collection including number of
respondents, frequency of responses,
and hours of response: The estimated
number of respondents is 50 per year.
The estimated number of hours needed
per respondent is .1 hours. The total
public burden is estimated to be 5 hours
per year. Payees do not need to
complete a form; the information may
be collected by HUD in person, by
telephone, or in writing, at the payee’s
option.
Status: Extension of a currently
approved collection.

SUMMARY: Pursuant to § 102(2)(C) of the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969, as amended, the National Park
Service (NPS) announces the
availability of the Record of Decision for
the Final General Management Plan and
Environmental Impact Statement (GMP/
EIS) for Fort Stanwix National
Monument, New York. The Regional
Director, Northeast Region, has
approved the Record of Decision for the
GMP/EIS, selecting Alternative 2—
Preferred Action, which was described
as the preferred alternative in the Final
GMP/EIS which was issued for the
required 30-day no action period
beginning on July 31, 2009 and ending
August 31, 2009. The Record of
Decision includes a description of the
background of the project, a statement of
the decision made, synopses of other
alternatives considered, the basis for the
decision, findings on impairment of
park resources and values, a description
of the environmentally preferred
alternative, a listing of measures to
minimize environmental harm, and an
overview of public and agency
involvement in the decision-making
process. As soon as practicable, the NPS
will begin to implement the selected
alternative.
Copies of the Record of Decision may

Fort
Stanwix National Monument has
needed a General Management Plan
(GMP) since it has been reliant on a
1967 Master Plan and a 1974
Development Concept Plan. The Fort
Stanwix National Monument GMP
describes and explains the resource
conditions that should exist and the
visitor experiences that should be
available at Fort Stanwix National
Monument. The GMP provides a
consistent framework for coordinating
and integrating all subsequent planning
and management decisions concerning
the park.
The selected alternative, Alternative
2, the Preferred Action, would broaden
interpretation to emphasize the role of
Fort Stanwix in the greater Northern
Frontier and Mohawk Valley regional
context; expand its interpretation of the
Six Nations Confederacy; and, within
available funding and authority, foster
programmatic coordination as well as
technical assistance to thematically
related sites within the Northern
Frontier and Mohawk Valley. Fort
Stanwix National Monument would also
use existing authorities to increase its
capacity to pursue community outreach
and regional partnership initiatives,
particularly in seeking hike and bike
trail linkages or shuttle vehicle
connections with related sites. Efforts
would be made to modify a limited part
of the lawn area near the reconstructed
fort to establish landscape conditions,
using native grasses and other
vegetation more evocative (not a
reconstruction) of the historic meadow
landscape while still maintaining
sufficient lawn area to support
community events. Certain fort
structures that have not been
reconstructed due to fiscal constraints
and that are important to interpreting
the history at Fort Stanwix, such as the
Ravelin, may be reconstructed if it is
feasible, fully funded by outside
sources, and meets with the Secretary of
the Interior’s Standards for the
Treatment for Historic Structures and
applicable Section 106 compliance
requirements. Vacated fort spaces would
be adapted for public use, relying on
enhanced interpretation to educate
visitors and provide for the essential
comprehension of the fort’s original
appearance.
In addition to the selected alternative,
a No Action alternative was presented
and analyzed in the Draft and Final
Environmental Impact Statements. The
No Action alternative describes current
management practices and conditions at
Fort Stanwix National Monument with
no major new actions. Current
management directions, practices, and
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

conditions would continue largely
unchanged. This alternative has an
interpretive focus on the siege of Fort
Stanwix during the Revolutionary War.
The issues explored through the
GMP/EIS planning process include
protection of cultural resources, visitor
services, partnership opportunities,
carrying capacity, and the lack of a
properly defined boundary. The
planning team established a set of
criteria and goals against which each
alternative was compared to determine
which alternative best fulfilled the
purpose and objectives of the GMP.
Resource Preservation Goals
• NPS addresses planning issues
associated with cultural resource
management of the fort structure,
grounds, collections, and archeological
resources. NPS should establish cultural
landscape conditions to make it more
evocative of historic era while
maintaining sufficient lawn area to
support community events.
Visitor Experience Goals
• Visitors understand the history of
Fort Stanwix during the 18th century,
particularly the events that occurred
there during the American
Revolutionary War in 1777. Visitors also
understand the significance of treaties
negotiated at Fort Stanwix between
1768 and 1790 with Indian Tribes.
• The visitor experience fully reflects
the park’s purpose, significance and
themes. This includes enhancing the
visitor experiencing and interpreting the
regional historical context of Fort
Stanwix to include Oriskany Battlefield,
Northern Frontier, and Mohawk Valley.
• Interpretation in broadened to
emphasize the role of Fort Stanwix in
the greater Northern Frontier and
Mohawk Valley regional context and
expanding interpretation of the Six,
Nations Confederacy.
• Interpretive media, exhibits,
wayside exhibits, and other programs
are updated to enhance visitor
understanding of interpretive stories.
Transportation Goals
• Fort Stanwix National Monument
works with local authorities to improve
traffic conditions and improve
pedestrian, bicycle, and shuttle vehicle
linkages with related sites, including the
Oriskany Battlefield.
Park Administration Goals
• Administrative, interpretive,
maintenance, and other staff, as well as
facilities and other infrastructure,
sustain the programs and operations of
the Fort Stanwix National Monument
and accomplish the NPS mission.
