two-part determination by the Secretary
of the Interior; and (2) development of
a casino-resort facility, parking
structure, site retail, commercial
building, tribal cultural center, and
police/fire station within the project
site. At full build-out, the proposed
casino-resort facility would have
approximately 98,442 square-feet of
gaming floor and a 300-room hotel. The
hotel tower would not exceed 145 feet
above ground level. Access to the
project site would be provided via three
driveways along US–2 and three
driveways along Craig Road.
The following alternatives are
considered in the FEIS: (1) Proposed
Casino and Mixed-Use Development; (2)
Reduced Casino and Mixed-Use
Development; (3) Non-Gaming MixedUse Development; and (4) No Action/No
Development. Environmental issues
addressed in the FEIS include geology
and soils, water resources, air quality,
biological resources, cultural and
paleontological resources,
socioeconomic conditions (including
environmental justice), transportation
and circulation, land use, public
services, noise, hazardous materials,
aesthetics, cumulative effects, and
indirect and growth inducing effects.
The BIA serves as the Lead Agency for
compliance with the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The
BIA has afforded other government
agencies and the public extensive
opportunity to participate in the
preparation of the FEIS. The BIA held
a public scoping meeting for the project
on September 16, 2009, in the City of
Airway Heights, Washington. A Notice

Notice of availability.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The National Park Service
announces the availability of a Final
Environmental Impact Statement for
Protecting and Restoring Native
Ecosystems by Managing Non-Native
Ungulates (final plan/EIS) at Hawaii
Volcanoes National Park, Hawaii. The
final plan/EIS will provide a park-wide
framework to systematically guide nonnative ungulate management activities

in a manner that supports long-term
ecosystem protection, supports natural
ecosystem recovery and provides
desirable conditions for active
ecosystem restoration, and supports
protection and preservation of cultural
resources.
DATES: The National Park Service will
execute a Record of Decision (ROD) no
sooner than 30 days from the date of
publication by the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency of the notice of filing
of the final plan/EIS in the Federal
Register.
ADDRESSES: The final plan/EIS is
available in electronic format at https://
parkplanning.nps.gov/havo_
ecosystem_feis. Printed copies of the
final plan/EIS are available for viewing
at the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park
¯
Kılauea Visitor Center, One Crater Rim
Drive, Hawaii National Park, HI 96718,
and in local libraries (locations noted on
above Web site). A limited number of
compact discs (CDs) and printed copies
of the final plan/EIS are also available
by request. To obtain a copy or for
further information, please contact:
Rhonda Loh, Chief of Natural Resources
Management, P.O. Box 52, Hawaii
Volcanoes National Park, HI 96718–
0052; (808) 985–6098.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The final
plan/EIS responds to, and incorporates
where appropriate, agency and public
comments received on the draft plan/
EIS, which was available for public
review from November 18, 2011 to
January 20, 2011. Three public meetings
were held from December 5 through
December 7, 2011 to gather input on the
draft plan/EIS. Twenty-six pieces of
correspondence were received during
the public review period. NPS responses
to substantive agency and public
comments are provided as Appendix F
of the final plan/EIS.
The final plan/EIS evaluates five
alternatives for protecting and restoring
native ecosystems by managing nonnative ungulates. The NPS preferred
alternative is ‘‘Alternative D:
Comprehensive Management Plan that
Maximizes Flexibility of Management
Techniques.’’ This alternative includes a
progression of management phases,
monitoring, and considerations for the
use of management tools; a population
objective of zero non-native ungulates,
or as low as practicable, in managed
areas; complete boundary fencing for
the Kahuku area and the Olaa rainforest;
and potential use of localized internal
fencing to assist in the control of nonnative ungulates. Control techniques
would be primarily lethal, but nonlethal techniques could also be
considered. Volunteer programs would

continue, but modifications would be
required for lethal removal programs to
meet current NPS practices. When
approved, the plan will guide nonnative ungulate management in Hawaii
Volcanoes National Park for at least the
next 15 to 20 years.
Because this is a delegated EIS, the
official responsible for the final decision
on the plan to protect and restore native
ecosystems by managing non-native
ungulates is the Regional Director,
Pacific West Region, National Park
Service. Subsequently, the official
responsible for implementation of the
approved plan will be the
Superintendent, Hawaii Volcanoes
National Park.
