plays an important role in the
development of scientific thought on the
concept of extinction and the
relationship of geology/paleontology.
Cave Without a Name is located
outside of Boerne, Texas, and is
significant for some of the largest and
best examples of speleothems in the
Edwards Plateau region. Blue
speleothems found in the cave are the
only ones known to exist in Texas and
are exceedingly rare nationally. The
cave also contains a rich fauna and
significant paleontological deposits.
The Chazy Fossil Reef is a surface
exposure of an Ordovician fossil reef,
approximately 450 million years old. It
is significant as the oldest known
occurrence of a biologically diverse
fossil reef, the earliest appearance of
fossil coral in a reef environment, and
the first documented example of the
ecological principle of faunal
succession.
The Nottingham Park Serpentine
Barrens site is an outstanding example
of the serpentine barren natural feature
in the Piedmont Upland region. This
feature is characterized by thin soils that
are high in concentrations of metals
which are toxic to many plant species.
The site supports shallow serpentine
soils, rock outcrops, and unique
vegetation communities, including
serpentine grasslands and open savanna
that contain rare and endemic species.
The site is within a county park and is
actively used for science and education.

Abstract: The America the Beautiful—
the National Parks and Federal
Recreational Lands Access Pass and
Senior Passes are free, lifetime Passes
issued by the Bureau of Land

persons domiciled in the United States,
regardless of age, who have a medical
determination and documentation of
permanent disability. The Interagency
Senior Pass is available to citizens or
persons domiciled in the United States
who are 62 years of age or older.
In the past, the processes to obtain
these Passes required in-person
application. The proposed revision to
current policy creates processes for
applicants to obtain either Pass through
the mail. Standard Operating
Procedures have been updated to reflect
the change to allow applicants to submit
applications by mail along with photo
copies of identification verifying U.S.
residency or citizenship and
documentation of disability for the
Interagency Access Pass or U.S.
residency or citizenship, and age for the
Interagency Senior Pass. The process for
obtaining an Interagency Access or
Senior Pass in person is not changing.
