Final Environmental Impact Statement

Off-Road Vehicle Management Plan
AGENCY:
National Park Service, Interior.
Notice of Availability of a Final
Environmental Impact Statement for the
ACTION:
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 223001
Cape Hatteras National Seashore OffRoad Vehicle Management Plan.
Pursuant to the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 42
U.S.C. 4332 (2) (C), and the Council on
Environmental Quality regulations (40
CFR part 1500–1508), the National Park
Service (NPS), Department of the
Interior, announces the availability of
the final environmental impact
statement (FEIS) for the proposed Cape
Hatteras National Seashore (Seashore)
Off-Road Vehicle Management Plan
(Plan/FEIS). The Plan/FEIS will enable
NPS to develop regulations and
procedures to manage off-road vehicle
(ORV) use/access in the Seashore
consistent with the Executive Orders on
ORV use on Federal lands and NPS
regulations.
DATES: The NPS will execute a Record
of Decision no sooner than 30 days from
the date of publication of the Notice of
Availability of the FEIS in the Federal
Register by the Environmental
Protection Agency
ADDRESSES: Electronic copies of the
document are available for public
review online at https://
parkplanning.nps.gov/caha. A limited
number of compact disks (CDs) and
hard copies of the FEIS are available at
the Seashore headquarters, 1401
National Park Drive, Manteo, NC 27954.
You may also request a hard copy or CD
by contacting Superintendent Mike
Murray, Cape Hatteras National
Seashore, 1401 National Park Drive,
Manteo, NC 27954.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
purpose of the Plan/FEIS is to develop
regulations and procedures that manage
ORV use and access in the Seashore to
protect and preserve natural and
cultural resources and natural
processes, to provide a variety of visitor
use experiences while minimizing
conflicts among various users, and to
promote the safety of all visitors.
Executive Order 11644 of 1972,
amended by Executive Order 11989 of
1977, requires certain Federal agencies
permitting ORV use on Agency lands to
designate specific trails and areas. Title
36, section 4.10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations implements the Executive
Orders by providing that routes and
areas designated for ORV use in units of
the National Park System shall be
promulgated as special regulations.
Therefore, this Plan/FEIS is necessary to
bring the Seashore in compliance with
Executive Orders 11644 and 11989,
address the lack of an approved plan,
and provide for protected species
management in relation to ORV use. The
FEIS evaluates two no action
SUMMARY:

Sfmt 4703
alternatives and four action alternatives
for managing ORV use, and identifies
their potential environmental
consequences. Consistent with NPS
laws, regulations, and policies, and the
purpose of the Seashore, the FEIS
describes Alternative F as the NPS
preferred alternative. Alternative F
provides a reasonably balanced
approach to designating ORV routes and
vehicle free areas while providing for
the protection of park resources.
Alternative A would manage ORV use
and access at the Seashore based on the
2007 Finding of No Significant Impact
(FONSI) for the Interim Protected
Species Management Strategy/
Environmental Assessment and the
Superintendent’s Compendium 2007, as
well as elements from the 1978 draft
interim ORV management plan that
were incorporated in Superintendent’s
Order 7. Alternative B would continue
management in effect during 2008–
2010. Under alternative B, management
of ORV use would follow the terms
described under alternative A, except as
modified by the provisions of the
consent decree, as amended.
Modifications in the consent decree
include changes to resource protection
buffers and closures for various species
at the Seashore and added restrictions
related to night driving. Alternative C
emphasizes seasonal designation of
ORV routes. It would provide visitors to
the Seashore with a degree of
predictability regarding areas available
for ORV use, as well as vehicle-free
areas, based largely on the seasonal
resource and visitor use characteristics
of various areas in the Seashore.
Alternative D would give visitors to
the Seashore the maximum amount of
predictability regarding areas available
for ORV use and vehicle-free areas for
pedestrian use. Restrictions would be
applied to larger areas over longer
periods of time to minimize changes in
designated ORV and non-ORV areas
over the course of the year. Alternative
E would provide use areas for all types
of visitors to the Seashore with a wide
variety of access for both ORV and
pedestrian users, but often with controls
or restrictions in place to limit impacts
on sensitive resources. Interdunal road
and ramp access would be improved,
and more pedestrian access would be
provided through substantial additions
to parking capacity at various key
locations that lend themselves to
walking on the beach. Alternative E
would provide more miles of ORV
routes, shorter hours of ORV night
closure during sea turtle nesting season,
a park and stay program, and a selfcontained vehicle camping program.
