National Park Service, Interior.
Terminate preparation of an
environmental impact statement.

AGENCY:
ACTION:

The National Park Service
(NPS) is terminating the preparation of
an environmental impact statement
(EIS) for a proposed Chronic Wasting
Disease Management Plan at
Shenandoah National Park. A Notice of
Intent to Prepare the EIS was published
in the Federal Register at 78 FR 13376
on February 27, 2013. Instead, the NPS
has prepared an environmental
assessment to amend its approved
Chronic Wasting Disease Detection and
Assessment Plan to include chronic
wasting disease management actions.
ADDRESSES: The environmental
assessment can be viewed at the NPS
Planning, Environment and Public
Comment (PEPC) Web site at: http://

cwdplanamendment.
SUMMARY:

Jim
Northup, Superintendent, Shenandoah
National Park, 3655 U.S. Hwy 211 East,
Luray, VA 22835.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In October
2013, the NPS approved a Chronic
Wasting Disease Detection and
Assessment Plan for the purpose of
detecting the presence, and assessing
the prevalence, of chronic wasting
disease (CWD) within the boundaries of
Shenandoah National Park (the park).
The CWD Detection and Assessment
Plan was evaluated in an environmental
assessment (EA) that was released for
public review in July 2012. Concurrent
with the detection and assessment plan,
the NPS initiated an EIS for long-term
management of CWD within the park.
The CWD management plan/EIS process
focused on reducing deer density in
specific areas as the most effective tool
for managing CWD in the park.
However, the results of scoping and
preliminary analysis showed that the
impacts of reducing deer density in
specific areas for CWD management
would not be substantially different
than the impacts of the approved
detection and assessment actions that
were previously analyzed in the 2012
EA because the CWD Detection and

Assessment Plan allows for the lethal
removal of up to 300 deer for the
purposes of detection and assessment,
and specifies the same high deer density
areas as proposed for managing CWD.
The main differences are that density
reductions may be done more frequently
than lethal removals for detection or
assessment, and there may be situations
in which density reductions would be
carried out concurrently with detection
and assessment actions, which may
increase the number of lethal removals
but not to a level that changes the
impacts or warrants analysis in an EIS.
Therefore, the NPS determined that,
rather than preparing a separate CWD
management plan, the most efficient
way to manage CWD would be to
expand the range of management tools
in the CWD Detection and Assessment
Plan to include CWD response actions
for the purpose of reducing the
likelihood of establishment, and
slowing the progression, of CWD within
the park. The NPS further determined
that an EA was the appropriate level of
environmental review necessary to
evaluate any differences in
environmental impacts as a result of
amending the approved CWD Detection
and Assessment Plan to include CWD
response actions.

Regional Director, Northeast Region, National
Park Service.
