30-day FR Notice

Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 103 / Wednesday, May 29, 2013 / Notices

tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

450k(a)(2)(A)(ii). The joint regulations at
25 CFR part 900 was developed through
negotiated rulemaking with tribes in
1996 and governs, among other things,
what must be included in a tribe’s
initial ISDEAA contract proposal to the
BIA. A response is required to obtain
and retain a benefit.
The information requirements for this
joint rule represent significant
differences from other agencies in
several respects. Under the Act, the
Secretaries of Health and Human
Services and the Interior are directed to
enter into self-determination contracts
with tribes upon request, unless specific
declination criteria apply, and,
generally, tribes may renew these
contracts annually, whereas other
agencies provide grants on a
discretionary or competitive basis. Both
the BIA and IHS award contracts for
multiple programs whereas other
agencies usually award single grants to
tribes. This information collection
addresses only the information that BIA
collects under the joint rule.
The BIA uses the information
collected to determine applicant
eligibility, evaluate applicant
capabilities, protect the service
population, safeguard Federal funds and
other resources, and permit the Federal
agencies to administer and evaluate
contract programs. Tribal governments
or tribal organizations provide the
information by submitting contract
proposals, and related information, to
the appropriate Federal agency, as
required under the ISDEAA. No third
party notification or public disclosure
burden is associated with this
collection. IHS estimates are not
included in this submission as they will
provide their estimates to OMB at a later
date. The revisions included in this
renewal include two information
collection items that were not
previously included.
II. Request for Comments
The BIA requests your comments on
this collection concerning: (a) The
necessity of this information collection
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the 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.
Please note that an agency may not
conduct or sponsor, and an individual

Scorpion Pier Replacement Project,
Channel Islands National Park, Santa
Barbara County, California
National Park Service, Interior.
Notice of Intent to Prepare an
Environmental Impact Statement.

AGENCY:
ACTION:

Pursuant to § 102(2)(C) of the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 (NEPA), and pursuant to the
Council on Environmental Quality
Regulations (40 CFR part 1500–08), the
National Park Service (NPS) is initiating
the conservation planning and
environmental impact analysis process
for the proposed replacement and
potential relocation of the existing
Scorpion Pier at Santa Cruz Island’s
eastern waterfront. The NPS is the lead
federal agency for environmental review
under NEPA. The lead state agency for
environmental review under the
California Environmental Quality Act is
currently being determined. As
described in 36 CFR 800.8(c), the NPS
is also using the NEPA process to fulfill
certain provisions of § 106 of the
National Historic Preservation Act
related to consultation and public
involvement.

DATES:

Karl
Bachman, Facility Manager, Channel
Island National Park, at (805) 658–5710.
Background: Santa Cruz Island and
the surrounding one nautical mile of
marine waters are located in Channel
Islands National Park. The NPS owns
and manages the eastern 24% of the
island, including the Scorpion Valley
area. Santa Cruz Island is surrounded by
the Channel Islands National Marine
Sanctuary which extends six nautical
miles from the island. The Scorpion Pier
is also within the Scorpion State Marine
Reserve designated by the State of
California. Over 55,000 people come
ashore at the Scorpion pier annually for
recreational activities including hiking,
picnicking, camping, kayaking, and
swimming. Many people also visit the
island’s historic Scorpion Ranch.
The existing Scorpion Pier is a flatbed
railcar that was installed as a temporary
facility in 2000. The pier is rapidly
deteriorating due to wave action and
saltwater. It has been closed numerous
times due to weather hazards and to
perform required repair and
maintenance activities. The pier
sometimes cannot be used by park or
concession boats, such as during low
tides, because of inadequate water
depth. The existing pier access road
undergoes reconstruction several times
per year due to wave erosion.
Purpose and Need and Preliminary
Alternatives: The NPS seeks to construct
a permanent replacement pier that
provides a safe, accessible, efficient, and
sustainable access point for visitors and
Park staff to Santa Cruz Island.
Additionally, the NPS intends that this
replacement pier, along with proposed
improvements to the access road, will
decrease future impacts to the island’s
sensitive archaeological resources.
Permanent replacement of the pier is
required due to the following current
conditions:
• Shallow water depths at the pier,
especially during low tide;
• Difficult vessel navigation and
mooring during moderate to extreme
wind and wave conditions;
• Challenging and limited access for
visitors embarking from ferries onto the
pier and from the pier onto the ferries;
