Download as PDF asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES 4306 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 17 / Tuesday, January 27, 2015 / Notices Alternative A (No Action), and two of the alternatives now include an interim cap on commercial recreation guides from 2013 to 2016, or until step-down plans are completed. Step-down planning would begin immediately upon approval of the revised plan/final EIS, rather than 2 years after approval, and all management prescriptions put in place pending the step-down plans would be considered interim. Other Chapters and Appendices— Various chapters and appendices were revised and reworked since the draft plan and draft EIS. Chapter 1, Introduction, was updated with details about the public comment period on the draft plan and contains a new section entitled ‘‘Concerns Regarding Fish, Wildlife, and Habitats,’’ as required by ANILCA. Chapter 4, Affected Environment, has a new section on soundscape and a new section on cabins; in addition, subsections on climate change were added to the descriptions of water resources, vegetation, fish, birds, and mammals. Socioeconomic data were updated with 2010 Census data, where available, and a new section on the Poker Flat Research Range and NASA’s Sounding Rockets Program was added. Chapter 5, Environmental Consequences, was reworked to provide more consistency, and to identify reasonably foreseeable future actions. Additionally, the chapter considers the effects of each proposed action on the Poker Flat Research Range. Step-down plans were reprioritized in Chapter 6, and the compatibility determinations were finalized and signed (Appendix G). The eligibility and suitability studies for the wild and scenic river review (Appendix I) were combined into a single report, and we added information about the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act and its management implications. Two New Volumes—A major change made since the draft plan is the addition of Volumes 3 and 4. Volume 3 summarizes all the public comments received on the draft plan/EIS, presents the substantive comments we received, and includes the Service’s responses to each substantive comment. Volume 4 contains indices to help the reader navigate through Volume 3 and contains full text samples of communications received on the draft plan. Comments We are not soliciting comments at this time. This release is intended to allow the public a period of review. Appendix J in Volume 2 of the plan includes a summary report of public comments received during the scoping period. Volume 3 of the revised plan contains VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:01 Jan 26, 2015 Jkt 235001 a summary of public comments received on the draft plan/EIS and the Service’s responses to substantive comments. Volume 4 of the revised plan includes samples of public comments received on the draft plan/EIS. Next Steps Following conclusion of the 30-day public review period, a Record of Decision (ROD) will be signed in which we disclose the Service’s final decision and any conditions of approval. Availability of the ROD will be announced through the Federal Register, a press release, the Refuge’s Web site, and communications with those on the CCP mailing list. Geoffrey L. Haskett, Regional Director, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Anchorage, Alaska.
