Notice of Scoping for

AGENCY:
ACTION:
Notice is hereby given that
pursuant to provisions of the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (Pub.
L. 91–190) and the Council on
Environmental Quality’s implementing
regulations (40 CFR 1502.9(c)) the
National Park Service has initiated the
public scoping phase for the
conservation planning and
environmental impact analysis process
needed to identify and assess potential
impacts of alternatives for resource
protection and other considerations
within the Honouliuli Special Resource
Study area in Honolulu, Maui, Hawaii,

and Kauai Counties of Hawaii. The
purpose of the scoping phase is to elicit
early public comment regarding issues
and concerns, preliminary alternatives,
and the nature and extent of potential
environmental impacts (and as
appropriate, mitigation measures) which
should be addressed.
Background: As authorized by the
Department of the Interior,
Environment, and Related Agencies
Appropriations Act, 2010 (Pub. L. 111–
88- October, 2009), the National Park
Service (NPS) is conducting a special
resource study of the area known as
Honouliuli Gulch, and associated sites.
The study evaluates the Honouliuli
Gulch Internment Camp and associated
sites located on Oahu and five other
islands located in the State of Hawaii
with respect to (1) Their significance as
components of World War II; (2)
significance of the sites as related to the
forcible internment of Japanese
Americans, European Americans, and
other individuals; and (3) historic
resources at the sites.
In conducting the study, the NPS
study team shall use criteria for
potential inclusion within the National
Park System as described in § 8 of
Public Law 91–383 (16 U.S.C. 1a–5).
The Special Resource Study will
evaluate the national significance,
suitability, and feasibility of including
the Honouliuli Gulch and associated
sites in the National Park System.
Factors which the NPS study team will
evaluate include: The value of the site
in interpreting the themes of our
nation’s heritage; the integrity of the
site’s resources; whether the study area
includes types or quality of resources
not already adequately represented in
the National Park System; whether longterm protection and public use of the
area are feasible; and whether the area
can be adequately protected and
administered at a reasonable cost.
The authorizing statute directs the
NPS to consult with (1) The State of
Hawaii; (2) appropriate Federal
agencies; (3) Native Hawaiian and local
government entities; (4) private and
nonprofit organizations; (5) private
landowners; and (6) other interested
parties. Recommendations of the NPS
study team may vary for different
portions of the study area. The NPS
study team will also consider alternative
strategies for management, protection
and use of significant resources within
the overall study area, including
management by other public agencies or
the private sector; technical or financial
assistance available from established
programs or special initiatives and
partnerships; and cooperative
management by NPS and other entities.

Public Engagement: During the study
process, a range of alternatives will be
developed in consultation with Federal,
State and local governments and
interested members of the public,
groups, and organizations. The NPS
study team will conduct an
environmental review of the alternatives
and potential consequences of resource
protection considerations as part of the
Honouliuli Special Resource Study. At
this time, it has not been determined
whether an Environmental Assessment
or an Environmental Impact Statement
will be prepared, however, this scoping
phase will aid in the preparation of
either document, and public comments
will aid in making this determination.
The public will have several
opportunities to comment and
participate throughout the study
process. Additionally, the public will be
afforded the opportunity to review and
comment on the ensuing environmental
document following its release.
For initial scoping and alternatives
development, the most useful comments
are those that provide the NPS with
assistance in identifying issues and
concerns which should be addressed, or
providing important information
germane to this study. All responses to
this Scoping Notice will also be used to
establish a mailing list of interested
persons, organizations, and agencies
that desire to receive further
information as the environmental
document is developed.
All comments regarding the
Honouliuli Special Resource Study
must be postmarked or transmitted no
later than June 1, 2011. Interested
individuals, organizations, and agencies
wishing to provide written comments
should respond to: National Park
Service, Honouliuli Special Resource
Study, 300 Ala Moana Blvd., Box 50165,
Ste 6–226, Honolulu, HI 96850.
Comments may also be transmitted
through the Honouliuli Special
Resource Study Web site (https://
www.nps.gov/pwro/honouliuli).
Before including your address, phone
number, e-mail address, or other
personal identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information—may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment

do so.

recommendation will be the Regional
Director, Pacific West Region, National
Park Service. The official responsible for
amending or ratifying the
recommendation and transmitting the
final document to the Secretary of the
Interior will be the Director of the
National Park Service. The final
document will identify the alternative
that, in the professional judgment of the
Director of the National Park Service, is
the most effective and efficient method
for protecting significant resources and
providing for public enjoyment. The
Secretary of the Interior subsequently
will forward the completed study along
with a recommendation regarding the
Secretary’s preferred management
option for the area to Congress for their
consideration. It is anticipated that the
final study report will be available in
2012.
