Proposed administrative correction; request for comment. AGENCY: ACTION: The Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), is proposing to make administrative corrections affecting Big Creek Fringe, SUMMARY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:36 Sep 07, 2010 Jkt 220001 French Creek, Placer Creek, Secesh, and Smith Creek Idaho Roadless Areas on the Payette National Forest. These corrections will remedy two errors regarding regulatory classification and mapping that concern Forest Plan Special Areas (Big Creek and French Creek). Notice is given pursuant to 36 CFR 294.27(a), that the Chief proposes to issue an administrative correction after a 30-day public notice and opportunity to comment. DATES: Comments must be received, in writing, on or before October 8, 2010. ADDRESSES: Written comments concerning this proposed administrative correction should be addressed to Idaho Roadless Area Payette Correction, Northern Region USFS, Federal Building, 200 East Broadway, P.O.

Individuals who use telecommunication devices for the deaf (TDD) may call the Federal Information Relay Service (FIRS) at 1–800–877–8339 between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, Monday through Friday. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The following correction is proposed to fix technical errors in the Idaho Roadless Area Rule published in the Federal Register October 16, 2008 (73 FR 61456) and associated maps. These corrections were discussed with the State of Idaho Implementation Committee on September 11, 2009, and no concerns were expressed by the Committee. These corrections would facilitate the development of the Big Creek Fuels Reduction Project on the Krassel Ranger District, Payette National Forest. The project is being developed to reduce fuels in the wildland urban interface around the community of Big Creek. The corrections are needed so the appropriate treatment may be designed. The public should be aware that the indexing of management themes for individual Idaho Roadless Areas set forth in § 294.29 is an approximation (to the nearest hundred acres). PO 00000 Frm 00015 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 Corrections Regarding Big Creek The Idaho Roadless Rule and associated maps mistakenly identify a Forest Plan Special Area (Wild and Scenic River) along Big Creek. During the Idaho rulemaking, Forest Plan Special Areas were identified where the management is governed by specific Agency directives and forest plan direction. The 2003 Southwest Idaho Ecogroup Land and Resource Management Plan Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) included an eligibility study for Big Creek. However, the Agency’s Record of Decision did not find Big Creek eligible for Wild and Scenic River designation. As the Payette Forest Plan did not establish a special management area, the Idaho rulemaking and associated maps should be conformed to remove this erroneous classification. These proposed corrections occur in T20N, R8E, sections 13–14 and 22–24; T20N, R9E, sections 2–3, 10, 15, and 17–18; T21N, R9E, sections 13, 23–24, 26, and 34–36, Boise Meridian. Summary of Proposed Changes The rule and associated maps will be corrected as follows: • Big Creek Fringe Idaho Roadless Area: Change 365 acres of Forest Plan Special Area to Backcountry/Restoration and deletes 3 acres of private ownership. The FPSA classification will be removed in the rule. • Placer Creek Idaho Roadless Area: Change 98 acres of Forest Plan Special Area to Backcountry/Restoration; and 14 acres of Forest Plan Special Area to Primitive. The FPSA classification will be removed in the rule. • Secesh Idaho Roadless Area: Change 1,086 acres of Forest Plan Special Area to Backcountry/ Restoration. • Smith Creek Roadless Area: Change 14 acres of Forest Plan Special Area to Primitive. Correction Regarding French Creek The Idaho Roadless Rule erroneously did not identify an existing Forest Plan Special area for the Wild and Scenic River corridor along Lake Creek in the French Creek Idaho Roadless Area. The 2003 Southwest Idaho Ecogroup Land and Resource Management Plan Final Environmental Impact Statement included a suitability study for the Secesh River, including Lake Creek. The Record of Decision found the Secesh River, including Lake Creek, eligible for Wild and Scenic River designation and the Payette National Forest Land and Resource Management Plans established a special management area. Therefore, E:\FR\FM\08SEP1.SGM 08SEP1 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 173 / Wednesday, September 8, 2010 / Proposed Rules the proposal is to correct the associated maps for this area. The correction involves moving 1,000 acres of Forest Plan Special Area to Backcountry/ Restoration to and occurs in T22N, R4E, sections 10, 15, 22, 26–27, and 35, Boise Meridian.

The proposed regulations will remove NARA facilities’ hours of operation from the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) and establish procedures that NARA offices must follow when changing facilities’ hours of operation. The proposed procedures will provide the public with advance notice of any proposed changes in hours and will include justification for the change in writing. Note that there are no proposed changes to hours of operation at any NARA facility at this time. DATES: Comments on the proposed rule must be received by November 8, 2010.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Stuart Culy on (301) 837–0970 or Laura McCarthy on (301) 837–3023. NARA facilities’ operating hours are currently published in 36 CFR parts 1253, 1254 and 1280. Any proposed changes to facility operating hours are made through revisions to the CFR, which include publishing the proposed changes in the Federal Register for public notice and comment. The proposed revisions are open for comment for 60 days and after the comment period closes and resolution of any comments received the proposed changes are made final by publication of the final rule in the Federal Register. The hours of operation published in the CFR are also available on https:// www.archives.gov, NARA’s official Web site; by calling a dedicated telephone number for each facility that provides the public with the facilities’ operating hours; and posted locally at each facility. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Proposed Revisions to the Current Regulations NARA is proposing to remove all facilities’ hours of operation from our regulations and instead direct individuals to obtain that information from https://www.archives.gov, NARA’s official Web site; dedicated telephone numbers; and local postings. The removal of the operating hours from the CFR will enable individual facilities to tailor their operating hours to their customers’ needs in a more flexible and timely manner. Individuals will continue to be able to obtain hours of operation information at a facility’s physical location and via telephone, including out-going voice messaging systems. Because the authority to change hours will reside with each locality, we are proposing to revise our regulations to incorporate a process for changing hours of operation that will provide the public with advance notice of a change in hours and will include justification for the change in writing. The procedures include posting the proposed changes at the facility in a public area; on https:// www.archives.gov, NARA’s official Web site; and on other online sites on which E:\FR\FM\08SEP1.SGM 08SEP1

36 CFR Part 294


Special Areas; Roadless Area Conservation; Applicability to the 
National Forests in Idaho; Proposed Correction

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.

ACTION: Proposed administrative correction; request for comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), is 
proposing to make administrative corrections affecting Big Creek 
Fringe, French Creek, Placer Creek, Secesh, and Smith Creek Idaho 
Roadless Areas on the Payette National Forest. These corrections will 
remedy two errors regarding regulatory classification and mapping that 
concern Forest Plan Special Areas (Big Creek and French Creek). Notice 
is given pursuant to 36 CFR 294.27(a), that the Chief proposes to issue 
an administrative correction after a 30-day public notice and 
opportunity to comment.

DATES: Comments must be received, in writing, on or before October 8, 
2010.

ADDRESSES: Written comments concerning this proposed administrative 
correction should be addressed to Idaho Roadless Area Payette 
Correction, Northern Region USFS, Federal Building, 200 East Broadway, 
P.O. Box 7669, Missoula, MT 59807-7669. Comments may also be sent via 
e-mail to comments-northern-regional-office@fs.fed.us, or via facsimile 
to 406-329-3314.
    All comments, including names and addresses when provided, are 
placed in the record and are available for public inspection and 
copying. The public may inspect comments received at https://roadless.fs.fed.us.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Idaho Roadless Coordinator Joan 
Dickerson at 406-329-3314. Additional information concerning this 
administrative correction, including the proposed corrected maps, may 
be obtained on the Internet at https://roadless.fs.fed.us. Individuals 
who use telecommunication devices for the deaf (TDD) may call the 
Federal Information Relay Service (FIRS) at 1-800-877-8339 between 8 
a.m. and 8 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, Monday through Friday.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The following correction is proposed to fix 
technical errors in the Idaho Roadless Area Rule published in the 
Federal Register October 16, 2008 (73 FR 61456) and associated maps. 
These corrections were discussed with the State of Idaho Implementation 
Committee on September 11, 2009, and no concerns were expressed by the 
Committee. These corrections would facilitate the development of the 
Big Creek Fuels Reduction Project on the Krassel Ranger District, 
Payette National Forest. The project is being developed to reduce fuels 
in the wildland urban interface around the community of Big Creek. The 
corrections are needed so the appropriate treatment may be designed. 
The public should be aware that the indexing of management themes for 
individual Idaho Roadless Areas set forth in Sec.  294.29 is an 
approximation (to the nearest hundred acres).

Corrections Regarding Big Creek

    The Idaho Roadless Rule and associated maps mistakenly identify a 
Forest Plan Special Area (Wild and Scenic River) along Big Creek. 
During the Idaho rulemaking, Forest Plan Special Areas were identified 
where the management is governed by specific Agency directives and 
forest plan direction. The 2003 Southwest Idaho Ecogroup Land and 
Resource Management Plan Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) 
included an eligibility study for Big Creek. However, the Agency's 
Record of Decision did not find Big Creek eligible for Wild and Scenic 
River designation. As the Payette Forest Plan did not establish a 
special management area, the Idaho rulemaking and associated maps 
should be conformed to remove this erroneous classification. These 
proposed corrections occur in T20N, R8E, sections 13-14 and 22-24; 
T20N, R9E, sections 2-3, 10, 15, and 17-18; T21N, R9E, sections 13, 23-
24, 26, and 34-36, Boise Meridian.

Summary of Proposed Changes

    The rule and associated maps will be corrected as follows:
     Big Creek Fringe Idaho Roadless Area: Change 365 acres of 
Forest Plan Special Area to Backcountry/Restoration and deletes 3 acres 
of private ownership. The FPSA classification will be removed in the 
rule.
     Placer Creek Idaho Roadless Area: Change 98 acres of 
Forest Plan Special Area to Backcountry/Restoration; and 14 acres of 
Forest Plan Special Area to Primitive. The FPSA classification will be 
removed in the rule.
     Secesh Idaho Roadless Area: Change 1,086 acres of Forest 
Plan Special Area to Backcountry/Restoration.
     Smith Creek Roadless Area: Change 14 acres of Forest Plan 
Special Area to Primitive.

Correction Regarding French Creek

    The Idaho Roadless Rule erroneously did not identify an existing 
Forest Plan Special area for the Wild and Scenic River corridor along 
Lake Creek in the French Creek Idaho Roadless Area. The 2003 Southwest 
Idaho Ecogroup Land and Resource Management Plan Final Environmental 
Impact Statement included a suitability study for the Secesh River, 
including Lake Creek. The Record of Decision found the Secesh River, 
including Lake Creek, eligible for Wild and Scenic River designation 
and the Payette National Forest Land and Resource Management Plans 
established a special management area. Therefore,

[[Page 54543]]

the proposal is to correct the associated maps for this area. The 
correction involves moving 1,000 acres of Forest Plan Special Area to 
Backcountry/Restoration to and occurs in T22N, R4E, sections 10, 15, 
22, 26-27, and 35, Boise Meridian.

    Dated: August 30, 2010.
