Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 141 / Friday, July 22, 2011 / Notices

U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), as provided by
Federal regulations (40 CFR Part 1500,
5(k), 1507.3(b)(2), 1508.4) and the
Department of the Interior Manual (516
DM 2 and 516 DM 8). Our EAS found
that the proposed plan qualifies as a
‘‘low-effect’’ habitat conservation plan,
as defined by our Habitat Conservation
Planning Handbook (November 1996).
Determination of low-effect habitat
conservation plans is based on the
following three criteria: (1)
Implementation of the proposed plan
would result in minor or negligible
effects on Federally listed, proposed,
and candidate species and their
habitats; (2) implementation of the
proposed plan would result in minor or
negligible effects on other
environmental values or resources; and
(3) impacts of the plan, considered
together with the impacts of other past,
present, and reasonably foreseeable
similarly situated projects, would not
result, over time, in cumulative effects
to environmental values or resources
that would be considered significant.
Based upon the preliminary
determinations in the EAS, we do not
intend to prepare further NEPA
documentation. We will consider public
comments when making the final
determination on whether to prepare an
additional NEPA document on the
proposed action.

Public Review
We provide this notice pursuant to
section 10(c) of the Act and the NEPA
public-involvement regulations (40 CFR
1500.1(b), 1500.2(d), and 1506.6). We
will evaluate the permit application,
including the plan and comments we
receive, to determine whether the
application meets the requirements of
section 10(a) of the Act. If the
requirements are met, we will issue a
permit to the applicant for the
incidental take of the Central Distinct
Population Segment (DPS) of the
California tiger salamander from the
implementation of the Covered
Activities described in the Low-effect
Habitat Conservation Plan, for the
California tiger salamander, for the
AT&T Portable Generator Storage
Facility, Yolo County, California. We
will make the final permit decision no
sooner than 30 days after the date of this
notice.

for which the BLM has requested
approval in this information collection
request. In the 60-day notice for this

the title should remain ‘‘Contract for the
Sale of Mineral Materials.’’

60-Day Notice: As required at 5 CFR

comments from the public and other
interested parties. The comment period
closed on May 27, 2011. The BLM
received one comment. The comment
was a general invective about the

BLM has not changed the information
collection in response to the comment.
