Background and Methodology
Background information on the
Coastal Barrier Resources Act (16 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.; CBRA) and the CBRS, as
well as information on the Hurricane
Sandy Remapping Project and the
methodology used to produce the
revised boundaries, can be found in a
notice the Service published in the
Federal Register on March 12, 2018 (83
FR 10739). The methodology
information that is specific to the
second batch of the project is described

Digital Conversion of the Existing
Boundaries
The boundaries of the CBRS were
originally hand-drawn on paper maps.
The existing CBRS maps for Maryland,
Virginia, and New York City underwent
a digital conversion process between
2013 and 2015 (80 FR 25314; May 4,
2015). The digital conversion project
replaced the underlying base maps with
aerial imagery; updated the boundaries
to a digital format to make them
compatible with modern Geographic
Information Systems (GIS); and
incorporated modifications as necessary
to account for natural changes,
voluntary additions, and additions of
excess Federal property.
The existing CBRS unit boundaries for
Connecticut, Massachusetts, most of the
Long Island portion of New York, and
Rhode Island were digitally converted
as part of this Hurricane Sandy
Remapping Project in accordance with
the digital conversion methodology
described in a notice the Service
published in the Federal Register on
August 29, 2013 (78 FR 53467). The
existing boundaries for these areas do
not incorporate modifications to
account for natural changes, voluntary
additions, and additions of excess
Federal property; such changes are
instead reflected in the proposed
boundaries.
Initial Stakeholder Outreach
The initial outreach that was
conducted with certain landowners
and/or managers of coastal barrier areas
during the data mining and research
phase of the project is described in a
notice the Service published in the
Federal Register on March 12, 2018 (83
FR 10739). The Service reached out to
approximately 65 different stakeholders
in Connecticut, Maryland, New York,
Rhode Island, and Virginia, including,
but not limited to, State natural resource
management agencies, State parks and
recreation agencies, private
conservation organizations, and local
governments. Some of these
organizations, due to a variety of
circumstances, were unable to provide
input during the initial stakeholder
outreach process. Additional outreach
to these groups and a broader group of
stakeholders is being conducted as part
of the public review process; see the
Request for Comments section, below,
for more information.
Proposed Modifications to the CBRS
The Service has prepared draft
revised boundaries that propose
modifications to the CBRS in
Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts,

New York, Rhode Island, and Virginia.
This second batch of the Hurricane
Sandy Remapping Project includes a
total of 310 CBRS units (256 existing
units and 54 proposed new units),
which are listed below in Appendix A.
The breakdown of units by State is as
follows: 32 existing units and 3
proposed new units in Connecticut, 49
existing units and 11 proposed new
units in Maryland, 80 existing units and
22 proposed new units in New York, 31
existing units and 4 proposed new units
in Rhode Island (including a minor
portion of Unit D01 located in
Massachusetts), and 64 existing units
and 14 proposed new units in Virginia.
Nineteen of the 256 existing units
have no proposed changes. Two of the
existing 256 units are proposed for
deletion from the CBRS, 15 of the
existing units are proposed for
reclassification from System Unit to
Otherwise Protected Area (OPA) or viceversa, and two of the existing units are
transferred from one existing System
Unit to another existing System Unit; in
all of these cases, the current unit
numbers are retired, resulting in 291
total proposed units.
Twenty-one of the 54 proposed new
units are comprised partially, mostly, or
entirely of areas that are currently
contained within the CBRS, but are
proposed for reclassification from
System Unit to OPA or vice-versa.
Thirty-three of the 54 proposed new
units are comprised entirely of areas
that are not currently contained within
the CBRS.
If adopted by Congress, the proposed
boundaries would remove 787 acres
from the CBRS (600 acres of fastland
and 187 acres of associated aquatic
habitat) and add approximately 141,072
acres to the CBRS (5,057 acres of
fastland and 136,015 acres of associated
aquatic habitat). The proposed
boundaries would remove 643
structures from the CBRS and add 96
structures to the CBRS. A summary of
metrics associated with the proposed
changes for each State is below. More
detailed information regarding the
specific proposed changes to each unit
is available in a set of unit summaries.
See the Availability of Proposed CBRS
Boundaries and Related Information
section, below, for information on
where to access the unit summaries.
Connecticut
The Service has prepared
comprehensively revised proposed
boundaries for all of the 32 existing
CBRS units in Connecticut. One existing
unit in Connecticut has no proposed
changes. Four of the existing 32 units
are proposed for reclassification from
VerDate Sep<11>2014
00:45 Dec 18, 2018
Jkt 247001
System Unit to OPA or vice-versa, and,
therefore, their current unit numbers are
retired. Two of the existing 32 units in
Connecticut are proposed for transfer
from one existing System Unit to
another existing System Unit (one of
which is Rhode Island Unit D08; the
Connecticut acreage is reported as part
of Unit D08).
The Service identified three proposed
new units in Connecticut. One of the
three proposed new units in
Connecticut is comprised partially of
areas that are currently contained
within the CBRS, but are proposed for
reclassification from System Unit to
OPA. Two of the three proposed new
units in Connecticut are comprised
entirely of areas that are not currently
contained within the CBRS.
There are 29 total proposed units in
Connecticut. The proposed boundaries
for Connecticut would remove 32 acres
from the CBRS (15 acres of fastland and
17 acres of associated aquatic habitat)
and add approximately 4,477 acres to
the CBRS (238 acres of fastland and
4,239 acres of associated aquatic
habitat). The proposed boundaries
would remove 51 structures from the
CBRS and add approximately 8
structures to the CBRS.
Maryland
The Service has prepared
comprehensively revised proposed
boundaries for all of the 49 existing
CBRS units in Maryland. Twelve
existing units in Maryland have no
proposed changes. One of the existing
49 units is proposed for deletion from
the CBRS, and, therefore, its current
unit number is retired. The Service
identified 11 proposed new units in
Maryland, which are all comprised
entirely of areas that are not currently
contained within the CBRS.
There are 59 total proposed units in
Maryland. The proposed boundaries for
Maryland would remove 124 acres from
the CBRS (105 acres of fastland and 19
acres of associated aquatic habitat) and
add 18,998 acres to the CBRS (429 acres
of fastland and 18,569 acres of
associated aquatic habitat). The
proposed boundaries would remove 83
structures from the CBRS and add 7
structures to the CBRS.
Massachusetts
The Service prepared
comprehensively revised proposed
boundaries for all of the 86 existing
CBRS units in Massachusetts as part of
the first batch of this project described
in a notice published in the Federal
Register on March 12, 2018 (83 FR
10739). However, a minor portion of
Rhode Island Unit D01 is located in
PO 00000
Frm 00054
Fmt 4703

Massachusetts. The acreage for this
Massachusetts area (about 3 acres) is
reported as part of Rhode Island Unit
D01.
New York
The Service has prepared
comprehensively revised proposed
boundaries for all of the 80 existing
CBRS units on Long Island in New
York. The Great Lakes units in New
York were not assessed as part of this
review. One existing unit in New York
has no proposed changes. Eight of the
existing 80 units are proposed for
reclassification from System Unit to
OPA, and, therefore, their current unit
numbers are retired.
The Service identified 22 proposed
new units in New York. Fourteen of the
22 proposed new units in New York are
comprised partially, mostly, or entirely
of areas that are currently contained
within the CBRS, but are proposed for
reclassification from System Unit to
OPA or vice-versa. Eight of the 22
proposed new units in New York are
comprised entirely of areas that are not
currently contained within the CBRS.
There are 94 total proposed units in
New York. The proposed boundaries for
New York would remove 328 acres from
the CBRS (242 acres of fastland and 86
acres of associated aquatic habitat) and
add 19,768 acres to the CBRS (2,581
acres of fastland and 17,187 acres of
associated aquatic habitat). The
proposed boundaries would remove 282
structures from the CBRS and add 30
structures to the CBRS.
Rhode Island
The Service has prepared
comprehensively revised proposed
boundaries for 31 of the 35 existing
CBRS units in Rhode Island. The map
for the remaining four Rhode Island
units (Units RI–04P, RI–05P, RI–06, and
RI–07) was comprehensively reviewed
and revised by the Service and adopted
by Congress in 2014 (Pub. L. 113–253).
One existing unit in Rhode Island has
no proposed changes. Three of the
existing 31 units are proposed for
reclassification from System Unit to
OPA, and, therefore, their current unit
numbers are retired.
The Service identified four proposed
new units in Rhode Island. Three of the
four proposed new units are comprised
either mostly or entirely of areas that are
currently contained within the CBRS,
but are proposed for reclassification
from System Unit to OPA. One of the
four proposed new units is comprised
entirely of areas that are not currently
contained within the CBRS.
There are 32 total proposed units in
Rhode Island. The proposed boundaries
E:\FR\FM\18DEN1.SGM
18DEN1
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 242 / Tuesday, December 18, 2018 / Notices
for Rhode Island would remove 102
acres from the CBRS (89 acres of
fastland and 13 acres of associated
aquatic habitat) and add 1,315 acres to
the CBRS (376 acres of fastland and 939
acres of associated aquatic habitat). A
small portion of this acreage falls within
Connecticut and Massachusetts. The
proposed boundaries would remove 147
structures from the CBRS and add 6
structures to the CBRS.

Virginia
The Service has prepared
comprehensively revised proposed
boundaries for all of the 64 existing
CBRS units in Virginia. Four existing
units in Virginia have no proposed
changes. One of the existing 64 units is
proposed for deletion from the CBRS,
and, therefore, its current unit number
is retired.
The Service identified 14 proposed
new units in Virginia. Three of the 14
proposed new units in Virginia are
comprised partially, mostly, or entirely
of areas that are currently contained
within the CBRS, but are proposed for
reclassification from System Unit to
OPA or vice-versa. Eleven of the 14
proposed new units in Virginia are
comprised entirely of areas that are not
currently contained within the CBRS.
There are 77 total proposed units in
Virginia. The proposed boundaries for
Virginia would remove 201 acres from
the CBRS (149 acres of fastland and 52
acres of associated aquatic habitat) and
add 96,514 acres to the CBRS (1,433
acres of fastland and 95,081 acres of
associated aquatic habitat). The
proposed boundaries would remove 80
structures from the CBRS and add 45
structures to the CBRS.
Proposed Additions to the CBRS
The draft revised boundaries for
Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts,
New York, Rhode Island, and Virginia
would make additions to the CBRS,
including the creation of 54 new units
that are consistent with a directive in
section 4 of Public Law 109–226
concerning recommendations for
expansion of the CBRS. The proposed
boundaries are based upon the best data
available to the Service at the time the
areas were reviewed. Our assessment
indicated that any new areas proposed
for addition to the CBRS were relatively
undeveloped at the time the proposed
boundaries were created.
16 U.S.C. 3503(g) requires that we
consider the following criteria when
assessing the development status of a
potential addition to the CBRS: (1)
Whether the density of development is
less than one structure per 5 acres of
land above mean high tide (which
VerDate Sep<11>2014
00:45 Dec 18, 2018
Jkt 247001
generally suggests eligibility for
inclusion within the CBRS); and (2)
whether there is existing infrastructure
consisting of a road, with a reinforced
road bed, to each lot or building site in
the area; a wastewater disposal system
sufficient to serve each lot or building
site in the area; electric service for each
lot or building site in the area; and a
fresh water supply for each lot or
building site in the area (which
generally suggests ineligibility for
inclusion within the CBRS).
If, upon review of the proposed
boundaries, interested parties find that
any areas proposed for addition to the
CBRS are currently developed
(according to the criteria codified in 16
U.S.C. 3503(g)), they may submit
supporting documentation of such
development to the Service during this
public comment period. For any areas
proposed for addition to the CBRS, we
will consider the density of
development and level of infrastructure
on-the-ground as of the close of the
comment period on the date listed in
the DATES section, above.
Request for Comments
Section 4 of Public Law 109–226
requires the Secretary to provide an
opportunity for the submission of public
comments. We invite the public to
review and comment on the proposed
CBRS boundaries for the Connecticut,
Maryland, New York, Rhode Island
(including a minor portion of Unit D01
located in Massachusetts), and Virginia
units listed in Appendix A. The Service
is specifically notifying the following
stakeholders concerning the availability
of the proposed boundaries: The Chair
and Ranking Member of the House of
Representatives Committee on Natural
Resources; the Chair and Ranking
Member of the Senate Committee on
Environment and Public Works; the
members of the Senate and House of
Representatives for the affected areas;
the Governors of Connecticut,
Maryland, Massachusetts, New York,
Rhode Island, and Virginia;
organizations that own land held for
conservation and/or recreation within
the existing and proposed units (where
such ownership information and
mailing addresses were publicly
available); other appropriate Federal,
State, and local officials; and
appropriate nongovernmental
organizations.
Interested parties may submit written
comments and accompanying data as
described in ADDRESSES, above.
Comments regarding specific CBRS
unit(s) should reference the appropriate
unit number(s) and unit name(s) as
listed in Appendix A. We must receive
PO 00000
Frm 00055
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
64863
comments on or before the date listed
above in DATES.
Following the close of the comment
period, we will review all comments we
receive on the proposed boundaries and
make adjustments to the boundaries, as
appropriate, based on information
received through public comments,
updated aerial imagery, CBRA criteria,
and objective mapping protocols. We
will then prepare final recommended
boundaries to be submitted to Congress.
The final recommended boundaries will
become effective only if they are
adopted by Congress through
legislation.
Availability of Proposed CBRS
Boundaries and Related Information
In the past, the Service has produced
static PDFs of draft maps depicting
proposed changes to the CBRS.
However, in an effort to reduce costs,
increase efficiency, and provide a more
user-friendly interface for the public to
view the proposed changes, the Service
has created an online ‘‘CBRS Projects
Mapper’’ to display the proposed CBRS
boundaries in lieu of static PDFs of the
draft maps. The online mapper creates
greater transparency in the public
review process, allowing users to zoom
in further and obtain more detailed
information about the type of change
that is proposed for a specific area (e.g.,
additions, removals, and
reclassifications).
The CBRS Projects Mapper and unit
summaries (containing historical
changes and proposed changes to the
individual units) can be accessed from
the Service’s website at https://
www.fws.gov/cbra. Public comments
should be submitted at https://
www.regulations.gov (see ADDRESSES,
above). A shapefile of the proposed
CBRS boundaries, which can be used
with GIS software, is also available for
download. The shapefile is best viewed
using the base imagery to which the
boundaries were drawn; the base
imagery sources and dates are included
in the metadata for the shapefile. The
Service is not responsible for any
misuse or misinterpretation of the
shapefile.
Additionally, a stakeholder outreach
toolkit (comprised of project fact sheets,
flyers for the virtual public meetings,
and other information about the project)
will be made available to local officials
upon request. Local officials may use
this toolkit to increase awareness of the
project and the virtual public meetings
within the community. Local officials
may contact the individual identified in

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Coastal Barrier Resources
Reauthorization Act of 2006 (section 4 of Public Law 109-226; CBRRA)
requires the Secretary of the Interior (Secretary) to prepare digital
versions of the John H. Chafee Coastal Barrier Resources System (CBRS)
maps. We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), have prepared
proposed digital boundaries for the second batch of CBRS units included
in the Hurricane Sandy Remapping Project. This second batch of the
project includes a total of 310 CBRS units (256 existing units and 54
proposed new units) located in Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts,
New York (Long Island), Rhode Island, and Virginia. This notice
announces the availability of the proposed boundaries for public review
and comment, and also advises the public of upcoming public meetings
that will be held via webcast and teleconference.
Background and Methodology
Background information on the Coastal Barrier Resources Act (16
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.; CBRA) and the CBRS, as well as information on the
Hurricane Sandy Remapping Project and the methodology used to produce
the revised boundaries, can be found in a notice the Service published
in the Federal Register on March 12, 2018 (83 FR 10739). The
methodology information that is specific to the second batch of the
project is described below.
Digital Conversion of the Existing Boundaries
The boundaries of the CBRS were originally hand-drawn on paper
maps. The existing CBRS maps for Maryland, Virginia, and New York City
underwent a digital conversion process between 2013 and 2015 (80 FR
25314; May 4, 2015). The digital conversion project replaced the
underlying base maps with aerial imagery; updated the boundaries to a
digital format to make them compatible with modern Geographic
Information Systems (GIS); and incorporated modifications as necessary
to account for natural changes, voluntary additions, and additions of
excess Federal property.
The existing CBRS unit boundaries for Connecticut, Massachusetts,
most of the Long Island portion of New York, and Rhode Island were
digitally converted as part of this Hurricane Sandy Remapping Project
in accordance with the digital conversion methodology described in a
notice the Service published in the Federal Register on August 29, 2013
(78 FR 53467). The existing boundaries for these areas do not
incorporate modifications to account for natural changes, voluntary
additions, and additions of excess Federal property; such changes are
instead reflected in the proposed boundaries.
Initial Stakeholder Outreach
The initial outreach that was conducted with certain landowners
and/or managers of coastal barrier areas during the data mining and
research phase of the project is described in a notice the Service
published in the Federal Register on March 12, 2018 (83 FR 10739). The
Service reached out to approximately 65 different stakeholders in
Connecticut, Maryland, New York, Rhode Island, and Virginia, including,
but not limited to, State natural resource management agencies, State
parks and recreation agencies, private conservation organizations, and
local governments. Some of these organizations, due to a variety of
circumstances, were unable to provide input during the initial
stakeholder outreach process. Additional outreach to these groups and a
broader group of stakeholders is being conducted as part of the public
review process; see the Request for Comments section, below, for more
information.
Proposed Modifications to the CBRS
The Service has prepared draft revised boundaries that propose
modifications to the CBRS in Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts,
[[Page 64862]]
New York, Rhode Island, and Virginia. This second batch of the
Hurricane Sandy Remapping Project includes a total of 310 CBRS units
(256 existing units and 54 proposed new units), which are listed below
in Appendix A. The breakdown of units by State is as follows: 32
existing units and 3 proposed new units in Connecticut, 49 existing
units and 11 proposed new units in Maryland, 80 existing units and 22
proposed new units in New York, 31 existing units and 4 proposed new
units in Rhode Island (including a minor portion of Unit D01 located in
Massachusetts), and 64 existing units and 14 proposed new units in
Virginia.
Nineteen of the 256 existing units have no proposed changes. Two of
the existing 256 units are proposed for deletion from the CBRS, 15 of
the existing units are proposed for reclassification from System Unit
to Otherwise Protected Area (OPA) or vice-versa, and two of the
existing units are transferred from one existing System Unit to another
existing System Unit; in all of these cases, the current unit numbers
are retired, resulting in 291 total proposed units.
Twenty-one of the 54 proposed new units are comprised partially,
mostly, or entirely of areas that are currently contained within the
CBRS, but are proposed for reclassification from System Unit to OPA or
vice-versa. Thirty-three of the 54 proposed new units are comprised
entirely of areas that are not currently contained within the CBRS.
If adopted by Congress, the proposed boundaries would remove 787
acres from the CBRS (600 acres of fastland and 187 acres of associated
aquatic habitat) and add approximately 141,072 acres to the CBRS (5,057
acres of fastland and 136,015 acres of associated aquatic habitat). The
proposed boundaries would remove 643 structures from the CBRS and add
96 structures to the CBRS. A summary of metrics associated with the
proposed changes for each State is below. More detailed information
regarding the specific proposed changes to each unit is available in a
set of unit summaries. See the Availability of Proposed CBRS Boundaries
and Related Information section, below, for information on where to
access the unit summaries.
Connecticut
The Service has prepared comprehensively revised proposed
boundaries for all of the 32 existing CBRS units in Connecticut. One
existing unit in Connecticut has no proposed changes. Four of the
existing 32 units are proposed for reclassification from System Unit to
OPA or vice-versa, and, therefore, their current unit numbers are
retired. Two of the existing 32 units in Connecticut are proposed for
transfer from one existing System Unit to another existing System Unit
(one of which is Rhode Island Unit D08; the Connecticut acreage is
reported as part of Unit D08).
The Service identified three proposed new units in Connecticut. One
of the three proposed new units in Connecticut is comprised partially
of areas that are currently contained within the CBRS, but are proposed
for reclassification from System Unit to OPA. Two of the three proposed
new units in Connecticut are comprised entirely of areas that are not
currently contained within the CBRS.
There are 29 total proposed units in Connecticut. The proposed
boundaries for Connecticut would remove 32 acres from the CBRS (15
acres of fastland and 17 acres of associated aquatic habitat) and add
approximately 4,477 acres to the CBRS (238 acres of fastland and 4,239
acres of associated aquatic habitat). The proposed boundaries would
remove 51 structures from the CBRS and add approximately 8 structures
to the CBRS.
Maryland
The Service has prepared comprehensively revised proposed
boundaries for all of the 49 existing CBRS units in Maryland. Twelve
existing units in Maryland have no proposed changes. One of the
existing 49 units is proposed for deletion from the CBRS, and,
therefore, its current unit number is retired. The Service identified
11 proposed new units in Maryland, which are all comprised entirely of
areas that are not currently contained within the CBRS.
There are 59 total proposed units in Maryland. The proposed
boundaries for Maryland would remove 124 acres from the CBRS (105 acres
of fastland and 19 acres of associated aquatic habitat) and add 18,998
acres to the CBRS (429 acres of fastland and 18,569 acres of associated
aquatic habitat). The proposed boundaries would remove 83 structures
from the CBRS and add 7 structures to the CBRS.
Massachusetts
The Service prepared comprehensively revised proposed boundaries
for all of the 86 existing CBRS units in Massachusetts as part of the
first batch of this project described in a notice published in the
Federal Register on March 12, 2018 (83 FR 10739). However, a minor
portion of Rhode Island Unit D01 is located in Massachusetts. The
acreage for this Massachusetts area (about 3 acres) is reported as part
of Rhode Island Unit D01.
New York
The Service has prepared comprehensively revised proposed
boundaries for all of the 80 existing CBRS units on Long Island in New
York. The Great Lakes units in New York were not assessed as part of
this review. One existing unit in New York has no proposed changes.
Eight of the existing 80 units are proposed for reclassification from
System Unit to OPA, and, therefore, their current unit numbers are
retired.
The Service identified 22 proposed new units in New York. Fourteen
of the 22 proposed new units in New York are comprised partially,
mostly, or entirely of areas that are currently contained within the
CBRS, but are proposed for reclassification from System Unit to OPA or
vice-versa. Eight of the 22 proposed new units in New York are
comprised entirely of areas that are not currently contained within the
CBRS.
There are 94 total proposed units in New York. The proposed
boundaries for New York would remove 328 acres from the CBRS (242 acres
of fastland and 86 acres of associated aquatic habitat) and add 19,768
acres to the CBRS (2,581 acres of fastland and 17,187 acres of
associated aquatic habitat). The proposed boundaries would remove 282
structures from the CBRS and add 30 structures to the CBRS.
Rhode Island
The Service has prepared comprehensively revised proposed
boundaries for 31 of the 35 existing CBRS units in Rhode Island. The
map for the remaining four Rhode Island units (Units RI-04P, RI-05P,
RI-06, and RI-07) was comprehensively reviewed and revised by the
Service and adopted by Congress in 2014 (Pub. L. 113-253). One existing
unit in Rhode Island has no proposed changes. Three of the existing 31
units are proposed for reclassification from System Unit to OPA, and,
therefore, their current unit numbers are retired.
The Service identified four proposed new units in Rhode Island.
Three of the four proposed new units are comprised either mostly or
entirely of areas that are currently contained within the CBRS, but are
proposed for reclassification from System Unit to OPA. One of the four
proposed new units is comprised entirely of areas that are not
currently contained within the CBRS.
There are 32 total proposed units in Rhode Island. The proposed
boundaries
[[Page 64863]]
for Rhode Island would remove 102 acres from the CBRS (89 acres of
fastland and 13 acres of associated aquatic habitat) and add 1,315
acres to the CBRS (376 acres of fastland and 939 acres of associated
aquatic habitat). A small portion of this acreage falls within
Connecticut and Massachusetts. The proposed boundaries would remove 147
structures from the CBRS and add 6 structures to the CBRS.
Virginia
The Service has prepared comprehensively revised proposed
boundaries for all of the 64 existing CBRS units in Virginia. Four
existing units in Virginia have no proposed changes. One of the
existing 64 units is proposed for deletion from the CBRS, and,
therefore, its current unit number is retired.
The Service identified 14 proposed new units in Virginia. Three of
the 14 proposed new units in Virginia are comprised partially, mostly,
or entirely of areas that are currently contained within the CBRS, but
are proposed for reclassification from System Unit to OPA or vice-
versa. Eleven of the 14 proposed new units in Virginia are comprised
entirely of areas that are not currently contained within the CBRS.
There are 77 total proposed units in Virginia. The proposed
boundaries for Virginia would remove 201 acres from the CBRS (149 acres
of fastland and 52 acres of associated aquatic habitat) and add 96,514
acres to the CBRS (1,433 acres of fastland and 95,081 acres of
associated aquatic habitat). The proposed boundaries would remove 80
structures from the CBRS and add 45 structures to the CBRS.
Proposed Additions to the CBRS
The draft revised boundaries for Connecticut, Maryland,
Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island, and Virginia would make
additions to the CBRS, including the creation of 54 new units that are
consistent with a directive in section 4 of Public Law 109-226
concerning recommendations for expansion of the CBRS. The proposed
boundaries are based upon the best data available to the Service at the
time the areas were reviewed. Our assessment indicated that any new
areas proposed for addition to the CBRS were relatively undeveloped at
the time the proposed boundaries were created.
16 U.S.C. 3503(g) requires that we consider the following criteria
when assessing the development status of a potential addition to the
CBRS: (1) Whether the density of development is less than one structure
per 5 acres of land above mean high tide (which generally suggests
eligibility for inclusion within the CBRS); and (2) whether there is
existing infrastructure consisting of a road, with a reinforced road
bed, to each lot or building site in the area; a wastewater disposal
system sufficient to serve each lot or building site in the area;
electric service for each lot or building site in the area; and a fresh
water supply for each lot or building site in the area (which generally
suggests ineligibility for inclusion within the CBRS).
If, upon review of the proposed boundaries, interested parties find
that any areas proposed for addition to the CBRS are currently
developed (according to the criteria codified in 16 U.S.C. 3503(g)),
they may submit supporting documentation of such development to the
Service during this public comment period. For any areas proposed for
addition to the CBRS, we will consider the density of development and
level of infrastructure on-the-ground as of the close of the comment
period on the date listed in the DATES section, above.
Request for Comments
Section 4 of Public Law 109-226 requires the Secretary to provide
an opportunity for the submission of public comments. We invite the
public to review and comment on the proposed CBRS boundaries for the
Connecticut, Maryland, New York, Rhode Island (including a minor
portion of Unit D01 located in Massachusetts), and Virginia units
listed in Appendix A. The Service is specifically notifying the
following stakeholders concerning the availability of the proposed
boundaries: The Chair and Ranking Member of the House of
Representatives Committee on Natural Resources; the Chair and Ranking
Member of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works; the
members of the Senate and House of Representatives for the affected
areas; the Governors of Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York,
Rhode Island, and Virginia; organizations that own land held for
conservation and/or recreation within the existing and proposed units
(where such ownership information and mailing addresses were publicly
available); other appropriate Federal, State, and local officials; and
appropriate nongovernmental organizations.
Interested parties may submit written comments and accompanying
data as described in ADDRESSES, above. Comments regarding specific CBRS
unit(s) should reference the appropriate unit number(s) and unit
name(s) as listed in Appendix A. We must receive comments on or before
the date listed above in DATES.
Following the close of the comment period, we will review all
comments we receive on the proposed boundaries and make adjustments to
the boundaries, as appropriate, based on information received through
public comments, updated aerial imagery, CBRA criteria, and objective
mapping protocols. We will then prepare final recommended boundaries to
be submitted to Congress. The final recommended boundaries will become
effective only if they are adopted by Congress through legislation.
Availability of Proposed CBRS Boundaries and Related Information
In the past, the Service has produced static PDFs of draft maps
depicting proposed changes to the CBRS. However, in an effort to reduce
costs, increase efficiency, and provide a more user-friendly interface
for the public to view the proposed changes, the Service has created an
online ``CBRS Projects Mapper'' to display the proposed CBRS boundaries
in lieu of static PDFs of the draft maps. The online mapper creates
greater transparency in the public review process, allowing users to
zoom in further and obtain more detailed information about the type of
change that is proposed for a specific area (e.g., additions, removals,
and reclassifications).
The CBRS Projects Mapper and unit summaries (containing historical
changes and proposed changes to the individual units) can be accessed
from the Service's website at https://www.fws.gov/cbra. Public comments
should be submitted at https://www.regulations.gov (see ADDRESSES,
above). A shapefile of the proposed CBRS boundaries, which can be used
with GIS software, is also available for download. The shapefile is
best viewed using the base imagery to which the boundaries were drawn;
the base imagery sources and dates are included in the metadata for the
shapefile. The Service is not responsible for any misuse or
misinterpretation of the shapefile.
Additionally, a stakeholder outreach toolkit (comprised of project
fact sheets, flyers for the virtual public meetings, and other
information about the project) will be made available to local
officials upon request. Local officials may use this toolkit to
increase awareness of the project and the virtual public meetings
within the community. Local officials may contact the individual
identified in FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT, above, for more
information regarding the toolkit.
[[Page 64864]]
Interested parties who are unable to access the proposed boundaries
or other information online may contact the individual identified in
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT, above, and reasonable accommodations
will be made.
Virtual Public Meetings
We will hold the following public meetings via webcast and
teleconference only. The purpose of the meetings is to give the public
an overview of the Hurricane Sandy Remapping Project and to offer an
opportunity for questions and answers regarding the proposed changes to
the CBRS units listed in Appendix A.
