General Management Plan, Draft
Environmental Impact Statement, Lake

National Park Service, Interior.
Notice of Availability.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: Pursuant to the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 42
U.S.C. 4332(2)(C), the National Park
Service announces the availability of a
Draft Environmental Impact Statement
for the General Management Plan, Lake
Meredith National Recreation Area and
Alibates Flint Quarries National
Monument, Texas.
DATES: The National Park Service will
accept comments on the Draft
Environmental Impact Statement from
the public for 60 days after the date the
Environmental Protection Agency
publishes this Notice of Availability.
Public meetings on the draft will be
scheduled during the comment period.
Interested parties are encouraged to
check the park Web site and local media
for information.
ADDRESSES: Information will be
available for public review and
comment online at https://
parkplanning.nps.gov/LAMR, in the
office of the Chief of Resources, Arlene
Wimer, 419 E. Broadway, Fritch, TX
79036, 806–857–0309.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
document describes three management
alternatives for Lake Meredith National
Recreation Area and three management
alternatives for Alibates Flit Quarries
National Monument. Each NPS unit
includes a no-action alternative and two
action alternatives. The anticipated
environmental impacts of all these
alternatives are also analyzed.
Lake Meredith National Recreation
Area: Alternative 1, the no-action
alternative, would extend existing

19523
conditions and management trends into
the future. This alternative serves as a
basis of comparison for evaluating the
action alternatives. Alternative 2 would
provide quality recreation, enhance
traditional activities, and improve
resource protection. The focus would be
on providing a better visitor experience
through additional or improved
facilities and increased interpretation in
accessible settings, and expanded types
of recreational opportunities in areas
designated as rural and semi-primitive
zones. Alternative 3, the NPS preferred
alternative, would promote both
legislated and nontraditional uses,
developing facilities and opportunities
to address changing lake conditions and
visitor uses. The recreation area would
become a destination for semi-primitive
outdoor recreation opportunities and
encourage nonmotorized recreation
such as hiking, biking, backpacking,
horseback riding, and paddling. NPS
would also strengthen partnerships to
improve visitor experience.
Alibates Flint Quarries National
Monument: Alternative A, the no-action
alternative would extend existing
conditions and management trends into
the future. This alternative serves as a
basis of comparison for evaluating the
action alternatives. Alternative B, the
NPS preferred alternative, would
expand interpretation and education to
provide a better understanding and
appreciation of the flint and the people
who quarried and used it while
maintaining access restrictions that
protect the archeological resources.
Guided tours of the quarries would
continue and would include the
interpretation of an excavated quarry
near the trail. Additional visitor
opportunities would be provided in
nearby parts of Lake Meredith National
Recreation Area. These would include a
self-guided interpretive trail near the
visitor contact station and outdoor
interpretive materials on the terrace
above the visitor contact station.
Alternative C would provide a greater
understanding and appreciation for
archeological protection through
enhanced educational opportunities and
research. It also would accommodate a
wider range of visitor uses and
experiences by zoning part of the
national monument for unrestricted
visitor access by foot.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background.—On July 1, 2002, the
Department of Commerce issued a
countervailing duty order on imports of
PET film from India (67 FR 44179) and
antidumping duty orders on imports of
PET film from India (67 FR 44175) and
Taiwan (67 FR 44174). Following fiveyear reviews by Commerce and the
Commission, effective May 8, 2008,
Commerce issued a continuation of the
countervailing duty order on imports of
PET film from India (73 FR 26080) and
the antidumping duty orders on imports
of PET film from India and Taiwan (73
FR 26079). The Commission is now
conducting second five-year reviews to
determine whether revocation of the
orders would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to the domestic industry within
a reasonably foreseeable time. It will
assess the adequacy of interested party
responses to this notice of institution to
determine whether to conduct full or
expedited reviews. The Commission’s
determinations in any expedited
reviews will be based on the facts
available, which may include
information provided in response to this
notice.
Definitions.—The following
definitions apply to these reviews:
(1) Subject Merchandise is the class or
kind of merchandise that is within the
scope of the five-year reviews, as
defined by the Department of
Commerce.
(2) The Subject Countries in these
reviews are India and Taiwan.
PO 00000
Frm 00081
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
(3) The Domestic Like Product is the
domestically produced product or
products which are like, or in the
absence of like, most similar in
characteristics and uses with, the
Subject Merchandise. In its original
determinations and its full first five-year
reviews, the Commission defined the
Domestic Like Product as all PET film
corresponding to Commerce’s scope,
which does not include equivalent PET
film.
(4) The Domestic Industry is the U.S.
producers as a whole of the Domestic
Like Product, or those producers whose
collective output of the Domestic Like
Product constitutes a major proportion
of the total domestic production of the
product. In its original determinations
and its first full five-year reviews, the
Commission defined the Domestic
Industry to include all domestic
producers of PET film.
(5) An Importer is any person or firm
engaged, either directly or through a
parent company or subsidiary, in
importing the Subject Merchandise into
the United States from a foreign
manufacturer or through its selling
agent.
Participation in the reviews and
public service list.—Persons, including
industrial users of the Subject
Merchandise and, if the merchandise is
sold at the retail level, representative
consumer organizations, wishing to
participate in the reviews as parties
must file an entry of appearance with
the Secretary to the Commission, as
provided in section 201.11(b)(4) of the
Commission’s rules, no later than 21
days after publication of this notice in
the Federal Register. The Secretary will
maintain a public service list containing
the names and addresses of all persons,
or their representatives, who are parties
to the reviews.
Former Commission employees who
are seeking to appear in Commission
five-year reviews are advised that they
may appear in a review even if they
participated personally and
substantially in the corresponding
underlying original investigation. The
Commission’s designated agency ethics
official has advised that a five-year
review is not considered the ‘‘same
particular matter’’ as the corresponding
underlying original investigation for
purposes of 18 U.S.C. § 207, the post
employment statute for Federal
employees, and Commission rule
201.15(b) (19 CFR 201.15(b)), 73 FR
24609 (May 5, 2008). This advice was
developed in consultation with the
Office of Government Ethics.
Consequently, former employees are not
required to seek Commission approval
to appear in a review under Commission
