ADDRESSES: Written comments may be sent by the following methods: Website form located at: https:// www.arlingtoncemetery.mil/About/ Confederate-Memorial-Removal. Mail: Ms. Renea Yates, Director, Office of Army Cemeteries, 1 Memorial Avenue, Arlington, VA 22211. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Renea Yates, Director, Office of Army Cemeteries, 1 Memorial Avenue, Arlington, VA 22211; email: anccommemorative-works@army.mil; (877) 907–8585. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Congress directed the establishment of the Commission on the Naming of Items of the DoD that Commemorate the Confederate States of America or Any Person Who Served Voluntarily with the Confederate States of America (the PO 00000 Frm 00020 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Naming Commission) in section 370 of the William M. (Mac) Thornberry National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021 (FY21 NDAA). Regarding the Confederate Memorial, the Naming Commission recommended the following: —‘‘The statue atop . . . the monument should be removed. All bronze elements on the monument should be deconstructed, and removed, preferably leaving the granite base and foundation in place to minimize risk of inadvertent disturbance of graves.’’ —‘‘The work should be planned and coordinated with the Commission of Fine Arts and the Historical Review Commission to determine the best way to proceed with removal of the monument.’’ —‘‘The Department of [the] Army should consider the most costeffective method of removal and disposal of the monument’s elements in their planning.’’ The FY21 NDAA, section 370(a), requires that ‘‘[n]ot later than three years after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall implement the plan submitted by [the Naming Commission] and remove all names, symbols, displays, monuments, and paraphernalia that honor or commemorate the Confederate States of America . . . or any person who served voluntarily with the Confederate States of America from all assets of the Department of Defense.’’ The purpose of the proposed action is to remove from ANC a monument that commemorates the Confederate States of America. The need for the proposed action is to comply with nondiscretionary congressional direction. The removal of the Confederate Memorial must be conducted in a manner that ensures the safety of the people who work at and visit ANC and that protects surrounding graves and monuments. The entire process, including disposition, must occur according to applicable laws, policies, and regulations. The EIS will look at the impacts of removal of the statue atop the monument, disassembly of the bronze elements, and disposition of both. The Army intends to leave the granite base and foundation in place. NEPA requires consideration of a no-action alternative as a baseline against which impacts of the proposed action can be analyzed. The no-action alternative—while serving as a baseline for analysis—will not be considered for implementation, as it would not comply with congressional direction. E:\FR\FM\04AUN1.SGM 04AUN1
