Environmental Impact Statement.
ACTION:
The Ogden Ranger District of
the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National

management of motorized trails and
roads.

accordance with 40 CFR 1502.9(c)(4).
The draft supplement to the FSEIS is
expected in May 2013 and the final
supplement to the FSEIS is expected in
September 2013.

Proposed Action
DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
On March 20, 2006, District Ranger
Chip Sibbernsen made a decision
designating routes open for motorized
travel use, seasonal and other closures,
development of two gravel sources,
improvements to two concentrated use
areas, and new trail construction on the
Ogden Ranger District. The decision
also allowed limited use of motor
vehicles within 150 feet of designated
roads to access dispersed camping sites.
The record of decision for the project
was appealed by four separate parties.
After review, the appeal deciding officer
reversed the decision, based on her
finding that the environmental analysis
and supporting information in the
project record were not adequate to
support the decision in regard to
cumulative effects analysis.
Subsequent analysis resulted in a
FSEIS that did not replace the final
environmental impact statement (FEIS)
in its entirety, but which replaced
discrete sections of the FEIS and
provided additional information to
augment the analysis in the FEIS. A
record of decision for the FSEIS was
signed on September 12, 2007. The
record of decision was appealed and the
decision was affirmed and
implemented.
As a result of litigation, on March 7,
2012, the United States District Court
for the District of Utah issued a decision
order. The Court held that the record of
decision and FSEIS had three
deficiencies: (1) It failed to provide
notice of available support for the
public to understand the information
cataloguing illegal routes; (2) it failed to
adequately support its assumptions
about the impact of illegal user-created
routes; and (3) it failed to explain
explicitly its evaluation of the
cumulative impacts of its decision on
the Shoshone Trail system. As a result,
the currently proposed supplement to
the FSEIS will be directed to address the
deficiencies.

management programs be evaluated
concerning the extent to which the state
has implemented and enforced the
program approved by the Secretary,
addressed the coastal management
needs identified in 16 U.S.C. 1452(2)(A)

any grant, loan, or cooperative
agreement funded under the CZMA.
Section 1461(f) of the CZMA and
implementing regulations at 15 CFR part

access to documents submitted in
cooperative agreement applications,
performance reports, and certain
documentation required by the CZMA
and implementing regulations.
However, additional information from
each coastal management program and
research reserve, as well as information
from the program and reserve partners
and stakeholders with whom each
works, is necessary to evaluate against
statutory and regulatory requirements.
Different information collection subsets
are necessary for (1) coastal
management programs, (2) their partners
and stakeholders, (3) research reserves,
and (4) their partners and stakeholders.
Affected Public: State, local and tribal

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The Census Bureau plans to request a
three-year extension of a currently
approved collection for forms C–700,
Private Construction Projects; C–700(R),
Multifamily Residential Projects; C–
700(SL), State and Local Government
Projects; and C–700(F) Federal
Government Projects. These forms are
used to conduct the Construction
Progress Reporting Surveys (CPRS) to
collect information on the dollar value
of construction put in place by private
companies, individuals, private
multifamily residential buildings, state
and local governments and the Federal
government.
The Census Bureau is the preeminent
collector and provider of timely,
relevant and quality data about the
people and economy of the United
States. The Form C–700, Private
Construction Projects, collects
construction put in place data for
nonresidential projects owned by
private companies or individuals. The
Form C–700(R), Multifamily Residential
Projects, collects construction put in
place data for private multifamily
residential buildings. The Form C–
700(SL), State and Local Government
Projects, collects construction put in
place data for state and local
government projects. The Form C–
700(F), Federal Government Projects
collects construction put in place for
federal government projects.

The Census Bureau uses the
information from these surveys to
publish the value of construction put in
place series. Published estimates are
used by a variety of private business and
trade associations to estimate the
demand for building materials and to
schedule production, distribution, and
sales efforts. They also provide various
government agencies with a tool to
evaluate economic policy and to
measure progress towards established
goals. For example, Bureau of Economic
Analysis staff use data to develop the
construction components of gross
private domestic investment in the gross
domestic product. The Federal Reserve
Board and the Department of the
Treasury use the value in place data to
predict the gross domestic product,
which is presented to the Board of
Governors and has an impact on
monetary policy.
II. Method of Collection
An independent systematic sample of
projects is selected each month
according to predetermined sample
rates. Once a project is selected, it
remains in the sample until completion
of the project. Preprinted forms are
mailed monthly to respondents to fill in
current month data and any revisions to
previous months. Respondents also
have the option to report online using
a password protected site.
Nonrespondents are later called by a
Census interviewer and report data over
the phone. Having the information
available from a database at the time of
the interview greatly helps reduce the
time respondents spend on the phone.
Interviews are scheduled at the
convenience of the respondent, which
further reduces their burden.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0607–0153.
Form Number: C–700, C–700(R), C–
700(SL), C–700(F).

proposed content at this Web site:

Businesses or Other for Profit, Not-forProfit Institutions, Small Businesses or

Governments and the Federal
Government.

C–700(SL) = 12,500
C–700(F) = 2,000
