Notice of Availability of Record of
Decision for Restoration of Mariposa
Grove of Giant Sequois, Yosemite
National Park, California
National Park Service, Interior.
Notice of Availability of Record
of Decision.

AGENCY:
ACTION:

Pursuant to § 102(2)(C) of the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 (Pub. L. 91–190, as amended) and
the regulations promulgated by the
Council on Environmental Quality (40
CFR part 1505.2), the Department of the
Interior, National Park Service (NPS),
has prepared and approved a Record of
Decision for the Final Environmental
Impact Statement (Final EIS) for the
Restoration Plan for Mariposa Grove of
Giant Sequoias. The requisite no-action
‘‘wait period’’ was initiated on
November 1, 2013, with the
Environmental Protection Agency’s
Federal Register notice of the filing of
the Final EIS.
Decision: The NPS has selected
Alternative 2 (identified as ‘‘preferred’’
in the Final EIS) for implementation as
the approved Restoration Plan for
Mariposa Grove. Key components of the
approved plan are as follows: (1) The
existing parking lot in the lower
Mariposa Grove area will be relocated to
a visitor contact area at the South
Entrance to the park, about two miles
from the Grove; (2) parking will be
consolidated into a 295-space parking
and transit hub, with a park shuttle
available to transport visitors from the
South Entrance to the lower Grove area;
(3) a hiking trail to the Grove and new
accessible trails within the lower Grove
area and near the Grizzly Giant tree will
be constructed; (4) adverse effects to
cultural resources will be ameliorated
according to a Memorandum of
Agreement executed with the State
Historic Preservation Officer; and (5)
ecological restoration actions will be
undertaken to improve hydrologic
flows, water infiltration, and reduce
erosion.
Three other alternatives were
evaluated, the full range of foreseeable
environmental consequences was
assessed, and appropriate mitigation
measures were identified. Alternative 2
(selected for implementation) was
deemed to be the ‘‘environmentally
preferred’’ course of action.

Estimated Reporting and

Public Disclosure Statement: The PRA
(44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) provides that an
agency may not conduct or sponsor a
collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number. Until OMB approves a
collection of information, you are not
obligated to respond.
Comments: Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.,)
requires each agency ‘‘. . . to provide
notice . . . and otherwise consult with
members of the public and affected
agencies concerning each proposed
collection of information . . .’’ Agencies
must specifically solicit comments to:
(a) Evaluate whether the collection is
necessary or useful; (b) evaluate the
accuracy of the burden of the proposed
collection of information; (c) enhance
the quality, usefulness, and clarity of
the information to be collected; and (d)
minimize the burden on the
respondents, including the use of
technology.
To comply with the public
consultation process, on November 4,
2013, BOEM published a Federal
Register notice (78 FR 66066)
announcing that we would submit this
ICR to OMB for approval. This notice
provided the required 60-day comment
period. We received one comment, but
it was not relevant to the information
collection.
Public Availability of Comments:
Before including your address, phone
number, email address, or other
personal identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information—may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.

Determination To Conduct Full Fiveyear Reviews
United States International
Trade Commission.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:

The Commission hereby gives
notice that it will proceed with full
reviews pursuant to section 751(c)(5) of
the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C.
1675(c)(5)) to determine whether
revocation of the countervailing duty
order and antidumping duty orders on
lightweight thermal paper from China
and Germany would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of material
injury within a reasonably foreseeable
time. A schedule for the reviews will be
established and announced at a later
date. For further information concerning
the conduct of these reviews and rules
of general application, consult the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure, part 201, subparts A through
E (19 CFR part 201), and part 207,

SUMMARY:

205–1810. Persons with mobility
impairments who will need special
assistance in gaining access to the
Commission should contact the Office
of the Secretary at 202–205–2000.
General information concerning the
Commission may also be obtained by
accessing its internet server (http://
www.usitc.gov). The public record for
this review may be viewed on the
Commission’s electronic docket (EDIS)
at http://edis.usitc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
January 23, 2014, the Commission
determined that it should proceed to
full reviews in the subject five-year
reviews pursuant to section 751(c)(5) of
the Act. The Commission found that the
domestic interested party group
response to its notice of institution (78
FR 60313, October 1, 2013) was
adequate and that the respondent
interested party group response with
respect to Germany was adequate, and
decided to conduct a full review of the
antidumping duty order on lightweight
thermal paper from Germany. The
Commission found that the respondent
interested party group response with
respect to subject imports from China
was inadequate. However, the
Commission determined to conduct full
reviews concerning the orders on
lightweight thermal paper from China to
promote administrative efficiency in
light of its decision to conduct a full
review with respect to Germany.1 A
record of the Commissioners’ votes, the
Commission’s statement on adequacy,
and any individual Commissioner’s
statements will be available from the
Office of the Secretary and at the
Commission’s Web site.
Authority: These reviews are being
conducted under authority of title VII of the
Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is published
pursuant to section 207.62 of the
Commission’s rules.
By order of the Commission.
1 Commissioners Shara L. Aranoff and F. Scott
Kieff did not participate in these adequacy
determinations.
