Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 164 / Friday, August 27, 2021 / Notices

under section 10(a)(2)(B) for an
incidental take permit requires the
Service to find that (1) the taking will
be incidental to otherwise lawful
activities; (2) an Applicant will, to the
maximum extent practicable, minimize
and mitigate the impacts of such taking;
(3) an Applicant has ensured that
adequate funding for the plan will be
provided; (4) the taking will not
appreciably reduce the likelihood of the
survival and recovery of the species in
the wild; and (5) the measures, if any,
we require as necessary or appropriate
for the purposes of the plan will be met.
Regulations governing permits for
endangered and threatened species are
at 50 CFR 17.22 and 17.32, respectively.

Proposed Action
The proposed action is the issuance of
a 30-year ITP to authorize incidental
take of up to 8 Indiana bats and 48
northern long-eared bats during the ITP
term, resulting from activities covered
by the HCP and associated with the
operation of the existing Wildhorse
Mountain Wind Project in Pushmataha
County, Oklahoma. The plan area is
13,731.6 acres, of which 90 acres are
protected mitigation lands to offset the
impacts of the project.
The proposed HCP, which must meet
the requirements in section 10(a)(2)(A)
of the ESA, was developed in
coordination with the Service and
would be implemented by the
Applicant. The proposed action will
allow for the Applicant to comply with
the ESA, and their renewable windgenerated energy would be made
available to public utilities. Covered
activities in the HCP include the
operation of 29 wind turbines and the
conservation and preservation of 90
acres, called the mitigation area. The
Applicant proposes to minimize and
mitigate impacts to the Indiana bat and
northern long-eared bat through
conservation measures identified in the
HCP.
Alternatives
We considered one alternative to the
proposed action as part of the
environmental assessment process: The
no-action alternative. The no-action
alternative represents estimated future
conditions without the issuance of an
ITP. The no-action alternative
represents the status quo.
Under the no-action alternative, the
Service would not issue the ITP. The
no-action alternative would be
implemented if the Service denies
issuance of a permit or if the Applicant
chooses to abandon pursuing an ITP.
The Applicant would operate the
project without an ITP and would risk

not being in compliance with section 9
of the Endangered Species Act if
implementation of covered activities
results in take of the Indiana bat or the
northern long-eared bat without the use
of a 4(d) rule.

Abstract: The NPS Social Science
Program (SSP) is authorized by 54
U.S.C. 100701 to collect information
that will improve the ability of the NPS
to provide state-of the-art management,
protection, and interpretation of, and
research on, the resources of the System.
However, the data currently available
from survey research is insufficient for
generalizing findings across all national
park units in the System with regards to
visitor experiences, attitudes, and
spending behaviors. Past and present
socioeconomic research in NPS units do
not allow for comparison across units or
against a regional and nationwide
benchmark of information. Without this
data, local, regional, and national-level
NPS managers lack a comprehensive
understanding of visitor demographics,
economic contribution, and visitation
related experiences in park units needed
to to monitor how well the System is
serving the public.

In 2016, the NPS SSP conducted a
pilot study in 14 NPS units to identify
and better understand the need for more
advanced socioeconomic monitoring.
The pilot study produced and verified a
study design that will allow SSP to fully
implement a Socioeconomic Monitoring
Study (SEM). Building on the findings
from the pilot study, the SEM will
collect information from visitors in up
to 30 National Park units annually to
provide generalizable results for NPS
managers and planners across the
System to understand and monitor:
visitor demographics, economic
contribution, services, facilities and
infrastructure investments. Individual
park units will be able to compare their
unit with regional and national-level
data to make informed decisions in
future planning and management
efforts.
