permit decision through publication of
a Notice of Intent to prepare an
Environmental Impact Statement (68 FR
13720, March 20, 2003). That notice also
announced a public scoping period
during which interested parties were
invited to provide written comments
expressing their issues or concerns
relating to the proposal. In a letter
jointly signed by the OPRD and the
Service, agencies and the public were
notified of the opportunity to comment,
and of the dates and locations of
upcoming public meetings. Information
regarding the public meetings was also
posted on the OPRD’s Web site. In
March 2003, public meetings were held
in Coos Bay, Newport, Tillamook, and
Portland, Oregon.
Utilizing the public scoping
comments, the Service prepared a DEIS
to analyze the effects of alternatives on
the human environment. Alternative 2
in the DEIS is implementation of
OPRD’s Plan, including issuance of a
permit by the Service, and was
developed in collaboration with the
Oregon Department of Fish and
Wildlife. Two other alternatives are
analyzed in the DEIS: Alternative 1, NoAction, under which the OPRD would
continue their ocean shore management
activities with no issuance of a permit
by the Service; and, Alternative 3,
Management of Additional OPRD Sites,
which would include management of
three additional western snowy plover
management areas than are included in
Alternative 2.
The Service invites the public to
comment on the Plan, DEIS, and draft
IA during a 60-day comment period
beginning on the date of this notice. The
Service will evaluate the application,
associated documents, and comments
submitted thereon to determine whether
the application meets the requirements
of the ESA, and to prepare a Final
Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS).
Application requirements and issuance
criteria for incidental take permits are
found in 50 CFR 17.22(b). The Service
decision regarding issuance of an
incidental take permit will be made no
sooner than 30 days after completion of
the FEIS and the associated Record of
Decision.
All comments received, including
names and addresses, will become part
of the administrative record and will be
available for review pursuant to section
10(c) of the ESA. Anonymous comments
will not be considered. All submissions
from organizations or businesses, and
from individuals identifying themselves
as representatives or officials of
organizations or businesses, are
available for public inspection in their
entirety.

amended (40 CFR 1506.6). If we
determine that all requirements are met,
we will issue an incidental take permit
under section 10(a)(1)(B) of the ESA to
the OPRD for take of the western snowy
plover, incidental to otherwise lawful
activities, in accordance with the Plan,
the IA, and the permit.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
Public Law 107–110, the No Child
Left Behind (NCLB) Act of January 8,
2001, requires all schools including
Bureau of Indian Education (BIE)
funded boarding/residential schools to
ensure that all children have a fair,
equal, and significant opportunity to
obtain a high-quality education and
reach, at a minimum, proficiency on
challenging academic achievement
standards and assessments. In addition,
the BIE is required by NCLB to
implement national standards for homeliving situations in all BIE funded
residential schools. The BIE is required
to assess each residential school and
submit a plan to the Congress, Tribes
and schools which will bring all BIE
funded residential schools up to the
national standards. Information from all
BIE funded residential schools must be
collected in order to assess each
school’s progress in meeting the
national standards. Finally, the BIE is
required to monitor programs, gather
data, and complete reports for the U.S.
Department of Education. To achieve
these results, residential schools must
prepare reports, develop curriculum,
prepare financial planning documents,
and establish standards to measure
student progress. The BIE uses the
Annual Report to the Department of
Education and three other information
collections for the BIE to collect data,
measuring each school’s performance.
When there is a lack of progress, the
residential schools must show that they
have developed school improvement,
corrective action, or restructuring plans
to address the problems of all students.
Additional information collection
requirements have been developed to
implement the No Child Left Behind
Act.
II. Request for Comments

(b) The accuracy of the agencies’

the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through

collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be summarized and
become a matter of public record.

therefore your comments will receive
maximum consideration if received
during the 30-day period. We will not
request nor sponsor a collection of
