Endangered Species; Receipt of Applications for Permit, 69701-69702 [2010-28582]

Download as PDF 69701 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 219 / Monday, November 15, 2010 / Notices Alternative F, the NPS preferred alternative, is designed to provide visitors to the Seashore with a wide variety of access opportunities for both ORV and pedestrian users. Following consideration of public comment on the DEIS, Alternative F was revised to provide more pedestrian access adjacent to resource closures, where possible, and a more balanced approach to ORV routes and vehicle-free areas than Alternative F provided in the DEIS. To support access to both vehicle-free areas and designated ORV routes, alternative F would involve the construction of new parking areas, pedestrian access trails, ORV ramps, and improvements and additions to the interdunal road system. The NPS Notice of Availability for the DEIS was published in the Federal Register on March 5, 2010. The DEIS was posted online at https:// parkplanning.nps.gov/caha on March 5, 2010. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Notice of Availability for the DEIS was published on March 12, 2010, which opened the public comment period and established the closing date of May 11, 2010, for comments. Five public hearings were conducted in North Carolina and Virginia between April 26 and 29, 2010. Following a review of agency and public comment on the DEIS, NPS prepared a concern response report which contains responses to substantive comments. This report is included as an appendix to the FEIS. Authority: The authority for publishing this notice is 40 CFR 1506.6.
