Pike and San Isabel National Forest Cimarron and Comanche Grasslands, Colorado; Upper Arkansas Water Conservancy District Reservoir Analysis
The USDA Forest Service (FS) and the Upper Arkansas Water Conservacy District (UAWCD) have agreed to work cooperatively for the creation of the necessary environmental analysis and associated documents for the purpose of potential expansion construction of the North Fork Reservoir Water storage facility, reconstruction of the Boss Lake Reservoir emergency spillway, and long term operations and maintenance of all three reservoirs operated by UAWCD (Boss Lake, O'Haver, and North Fork). The FS has determined that all three facilities should be analyzed under an ``all-inclusive'' Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) which addresses each facility individually. The UAWCD has agreed to pay for all necessary NEPA analysis through a third party consultant working for the FS. The FS will oversee the final approval of: 1. The environmental firm awarded the contract to conduct the NEPA analysis. 2. The quality/thoroughness of the final environmental document. 3. Any future long-term Special Use Permit (naming UAWCD as the holder) covering the operational hydrology and maintenance needs of each individual water storage facility.

Subsistence Management Regulations for Public Lands in Alaska, Subpart C and Subpart D-2007-08 Subsistence Taking of Fish and Shellfish Regulations
This final rule establishes regulations for seasons, harvest limits, methods, and means related to taking of fish and shellfish for subsistence uses during the 2007-08 regulatory year. The rulemaking is necessary because Subpart D is subject to an annual public review cycle. This rulemaking replaces the fish and shellfish taking regulations included in the ``Subsistence Management Regulations for Public Lands in Alaska, Subpart C and Subpart D2006-07 Subsistence Taking of Fish and Wildlife Regulations,'' which expire on March 31, 2007. This rule also amends the Customary and Traditional Use Determinations of the Federal Subsistence Board (Sec. .24 of subpart C).
