SUMMARY:

I. Abstract
The BIE is seeking renewal of the
approval for the information collection
conducted under 25 CFR parts 30, 37,
39, 42, 44, and 47 under OMB Control
Number 1076–0163. This information
collection is necessary to implement
Public Law 107–110, No Child Left
Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB). The NCLB
requires all schools, including Bureaufunded schools, to ensure that all

Jkt 223001

children have a fair, equal, and
significant opportunity to obtain a highquality education and reach, at a
minimum, proficiency on challenging
academic achievement standards and
assessments. The BIE has promulgated
several regulations implementing the
NCLB Act. This OMB Control Number
addresses the information collected
under the following regulations.
• 25 CFR part 30—Adequate Yearly
Progress (AYP). Tribes/school boards
may request an alternative to the
established AYP definition or standards.
Tribes/school boards may provide
evidence that BIE made an error in
identifying the school for improvement.
Achievement, attendance and
graduation rates are collected from
schools to facilitate yearly calculation of
AYP.
• 25 CFR part 37—Geographic
Boundaries. This part establishes
procedures for confirming, establishing,
or revising attendance areas for each
Bureau-funded school. Tribes and
school boards must submit certain
information to BIE to propose a change
in geographic boundaries.
• 25 CFR part 39—Indian School
Equalization Program (ISEP). This part
provides for the uniform direct funding
of Bureau-operated and tribally operated
day schools, boarding schools, and
dormitories. Auditors of schools, to
ensure accountability in student counts
and student transportation, must certify
that they meet certain qualifications and
have conducted a conflict of interest
check. Schools must submit information
to BIE to apply for funds in the event
of an emergency or unforeseen
contingency.
• 25 CFR part 42—Student Rights.
The purpose of this part is to govern
student rights and due process
procedures in disciplinary proceedings
in all Bureau-funded schools. This part
requires the school to provide notice of
disciplinary charges, provide a copy of
the hearing of record, and provide a
student handbook.
• 25 CFR part 44—Grants under the
Tribally Controlled Schools Act. The
purpose of this part is to establish who
is eligible for a grant and requires tribes
to submit information to BIE to
retrocede a program to the Secretary.
• 25 CFR part 47—Uniform Direct
Funding and Support for Bureauoperated Schools. This part contains the
requirements for developing local
educational financial plans in order to
receive direct funding from the Bureau.
This part requires school supervisors to
submit quarterly reports to school
boards; submit a notice of appeal to the
BIE for a decision where agencies
disagree over expenditures; make

certain certifications in financial plans;
and send the plan and documentation to
the BIE or submit a notice of appeal.
II. Request for Comments
The BIE requests that you send your
comments on this collection to the
location listed in the ADDRESSES section.
Your comments should address: (a) The
necessity of the information collection
for the proper performance of the
agencies, including whether the
information will have practical utility;

burden (hours and cost) of the collection
of information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(c) ways we could enhance the quality,
utility and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (d) ways we could
minimize the burden of the collection of
the information on the respondents,
such as through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Please note that an agency may not
sponsor or conduct, and an individual
need not respond to, a collection of
information unless it has a valid OMB
Control Number.
It is our policy to make all comments
available to the public for review at the
location listed in the ADDRESSES section
during the hours of 9 a.m.–5 p.m.,
Eastern Time, Monday through Friday

identifiable information, be advised that
your entire comment—including your
personally identifiable information—
may be made public at any time. While
you may request that we withhold your
personally identifiable information, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to

Notice of Availability of the
Record of Decision on the Final
Environmental Impact Statement/Cape
Hatteras National Seashore Off-Road
Vehicle Management Plan.

AGENCY:
ACTION:

Pursuant to the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 42
U.S.C. 4332(2)(C), and the Council on
Environmental Quality regulations (40
CFR Parts 1500–1508), the Department
of the Interior, National Park Service
(NPS) has prepared and approved a
Record of Decision (ROD) for the Final
Environmental Impact Statement (Final
EIS) for the Cape Hatteras National
Seashore (Seashore) Off-Road Vehicle
(ORV) Management Plan.
The ROD documents the decision by
the NPS to implement Alternative F:
NPS Preferred Alternative (the ‘‘selected
action’’).
The selected action is necessary to
regulate ORV use at the Seashore in a
manner that is consistent with
applicable law, and appropriately
addresses resource protection (including
protected, threatened, or endangered
species), potential conflicts among the
various Seashore users, and visitor
safety. The selected action provides the
basis for a proposed special regulation
for ORV use at the Seashore. Section
4.10(b) of the NPS regulations in Title
36 of the Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR), which implements Executive
Orders 11644 and 11989, prohibits ORV
use except on routes and areas
designated in a special regulation. The

ORV plan and special regulation are
necessary to provide continued visitor
access through the use of ORVs. The
intended effects or objectives of this
action are to:
• Minimize impacts from ORV use to
soils and topographic features, for
example, dunes, ocean beach, wetlands,
tidal flats, and other features;
• Provide protection for threatened,
endangered, and other protected species
(e.g., state-listed species) and their
habitats, and minimize impacts related
to ORV and other uses as required by
laws and policies, such as the
Endangered Species Act, the Migratory
Bird Treaty Act, and NPS laws and
management policies;
• Minimize impacts to native plant
species from ORV use;
• Minimize impacts to wildlife
species and their habitats from ORV use;
• Protect cultural resources such as
shipwrecks, archeological sites, and
cultural landscapes from impacts
related to ORV use;
• Ensure that ORV operators are
informed about the rules and
regulations regarding ORV use at the
Seashore;
• Manage ORV use to allow for a
variety of visitor use experiences;
• Minimize conflicts between ORV
use and other uses;
• Ensure that ORV management
promotes the safety of all visitors;
• Identify operational needs and costs
to fully implement an ORV management
plan;
• Identify potential sources of
funding necessary to implement an ORV
management plan;
• Provide consistent guidelines,
according to site conditions, for ORV
routes, ramps, and signage;
• Identify criteria to designate ORV
use areas and routes;
• Establish ORV management
practices and procedures that have the
ability to adapt in response to changes
in the Seashore’s dynamic physical and
biological environment;
• Establish a civic engagement
component for ORV management;
• Establish procedures for prompt
and efficient public notification of
beach access status, including any
temporary ORV use restrictions, for
such things as ramp maintenance,
resource and public safety closures,
storm events, etc;
• Build stewardship through public
awareness and understanding of NPS
resource management and visitor use
policies and responsibilities as they
pertain to the Seashore and ORV
management.
