SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Executive
Order 13792 of April 26, 2017 (82 FR
20429, May 1, 2017), directs the
Secretary of the Interior to review
certain National Monuments designated
or expanded under the Antiquities Act
of 1906, 54 U.S.C. 320301–320303 (Act).
Specifically, Section 2 of the Executive
Order directs the Secretary to conduct a
SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00045
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
review of all Presidential designations
or expansions of designations under the
Antiquities Act made since January 1,
1996, where the designation covers
more than 100,000 acres, where the
designation after expansion covers more
than 100,000 acres, or where the
Secretary determines that the
designation or expansion was made
without adequate public outreach and
coordination with relevant stakeholders,
to determine whether each designation
or expansion conforms to the policy set
forth in section 1 of the order. Among
other provisions, Section 1 states that
designations should reflect the Act’s
‘‘requirements and original objectives’’
and ‘‘appropriately balance the
protection of landmarks, structures, and
objects against the appropriate use of
Federal lands and the effects on
surrounding lands and communities.’’
82 FR 20429 (May 1, 2017).
In making the requisite
determinations, the Secretary is directed
to consider:
(i) The requirements and original
objectives of the Act, including the Act’s
requirement that reservations of land
not exceed ‘‘the smallest area
compatible with the proper care and
management of the objects to be
protected’’;
(ii) whether designated lands are
appropriately classified under the Act as
‘‘historic landmarks, historic and
prehistoric structures, [or] other objects
of historic or scientific interest’’;
(iii) the effects of a designation on the
available uses of designated Federal
lands, including consideration of the
multiple-use policy of section 102(a)(7)
of the Federal Land Policy and
Management Act (43 U.S.C. 1701(a)(7)),
as well as the effects on the available
uses of Federal lands beyond the
monument boundaries;
(iv) the effects of a designation on the
use and enjoyment of non-Federal lands
within or beyond monument
boundaries;
(v) concerns of State, tribal, and local
governments affected by a designation,
including the economic development
and fiscal condition of affected States,
tribes, and localities;
(vi) the availability of Federal
resources to properly manage
designated areas; and
(vii) such other factors as the
Secretary deems appropriate. 82 FR
20429–20430 (May 1, 2017).
The National Monuments being
initially reviewed are listed in the
following tables.
