Final Environmental Impact Statement
and Record of Decision for Incidental
Take of the Endangered Alabama
Beach Mouse
AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: The Fish and Wildlife Service
(Service) announces the availability of a
Final Environmental Impact Statement
(FEIS), which analyzes the
environmental impacts associated with
incidental take permits that were
previously issued under the Endangered
Species Act of 1973 (Act), as amended
(16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), for take of the
Alabama beach mouse (Peromyscus
polionotus ammobates). The FEIS
analyzes the consequences of the
proposed action and alternatives to the
proposed action. The incidental take
permits, previously issued to Gulf
Highlands LLC and Beach Club West,
involve the construction, occupancy,
use, operation, and maintenance of two
residential/recreational condominium
development projects on the Fort
Morgan Peninsula in Baldwin County,
Alabama. For Record of Decision (ROD)
availability, see DATES.
DATES: The ROD will be available no
sooner than December 29, 2006.
ADDRESSES: Persons wishing to review
the FEIS may obtain a copy by writing
either to the Service’s Southeast
Regional Office at Regional Office, 1875
Century Boulevard, Suite 200, Atlanta,
Georgia 30345 (Attn: Endangered
Species Permits), or to the Alabama
Field Office at U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, 1208–B Main Street, Daphne,
Alabama 36526 (Attn: Darren LeBlanc).
Documents will be available for public
inspection by appointment during
normal business hours at both offices.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
October 8, 2002, we advertised a notice
of intent to prepare and EIS for this
project and requested public comment
(67 FR 62809). On October 29, 2002, we
held a public scoping meeting and
invited the public to provide relevant
information on the project. The public
comment period ended on November
22, 2002. We subsequently reopened the
comment period for 15 days between
PO 00000 Frm 00045 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\29NON1.SGM
December 18, 2002 and January 2, 2003
(67 FR 77505). On April 28, 2006, we
published a notice of availability for the
draft EIS with a 90-day comment period
on the draft EIS (71 FR 25221). We also
held a public hearing on June 26, 2006.
For ROD availability, see DATES.
The FEIS analyzes the preferred
alternative, as well as a full range of
reasonable alternatives and the
associated impacts of each. Alternative
5 (Preferred Alternative) concentrates
the development on the eastern portion
of the site and includes a 909-foot
corridor connecting adjacent primary/
secondary dunes and escarpment to the
Interior. This alternative provides for
dedication of 100.8 acres of Permittee-
owned lands into conservation status
via covenants, conditions, and
restrictions attached to the property,
and conditions of any incidental take
permit that might be issued.
The environmental review of this
project is being conducted in
accordance with the requirements of the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321 et
seq.) and its implementing regulations
(40 CFR parts 1500 through 1508), and
with other appropriate Federal laws and
regulations, policies, and procedures of
the Service for compliance with those
regulations.

Final Environmental Impact Statement;
Non-Native Deer Management Plan;
Point Reyes National Seashore; Marin
County, CA; Notice of Approval of
Record of Decision
SUMMARY: Pursuant to § 102(2)(C) of the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 (P.L.91–190, as amended) and the
implementing regulations promulgated
by the Council on Environmental
Quality (40 CFR Part 1505.2), the
Department of the Interior, National
Park Service has prepared, and the
Regional Director, Pacific West Region
has approved, the Record of Decision for
the Non-Native Deer Management Plan
for Pt. Reyes National Seashore. The
formal no-action period was officially
initiated August 18, 2006, with the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency’s
Federal Register notification of the
filing of the Final Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS).

 69142 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 229 / Wednesday, November 29, 2006 / Notices
Decision: As soon as practicable the
Seashore will begin to implement as its
new Non-Native Deer Management Plan
the Preferred Alternative (Alternative E)
contained in the Draft and Final EIS.
The selected plan features a deliberate,
long-term strategy targeting eradication
of all fallow and axis deer from the
Seashore by 2021. A combined program
of fertility control (using long-lasting
contraceptives) and lethal removal will
be instituted, as well as an intensive
monitoring program extending for at
least 15 years.
As documented in the Final EIS, this
course of action was deemed to be
‘‘environmentally preferred’’. The
preferred plan and four alternatives
were identified and analyzed in the
Final EIS, and previously in the Draft
EIS (the latter was distributed in
February, 2005). The full spectrum of
foreseeable environmental
consequences was assessed, and
appropriate mitigation measures
identified, for each alternative.
Beginning with early scoping, through
the preparation of the Draft and Final
EIS, numerous public meetings were
hosted. Approximately 2000 oral and
written comments were received during
the scoping phase or in response to the
Draft EIS. Key consultations or other
contacts which aided in preparing the
Draft and Final EIS involved (but were
not limited to) the California
Department of Fish and Game,
California State Parks, Marin County
Parks and Open Space, Marin Municipal
Water District, U.S. Dept. of Agriculture
Animal Plant Health Inspection Service,
and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
Local communities, county and city
officials, and interested organizations
were contacted extensively during
initial scoping and throughout the
conservation planning and
environmental impact analysis process.
Copies: Interested parties desiring to
review the Record of Decision may
obtain a complete copy by contacting
the Superintendent, Pt. Reyes National
Seashore, Point Reyes, CA 94956; or via
telephone request at (415) 464–5100.
