burden, to mailers. The many highquality mailers should not bear the

burden of paying additional costs

associated with poor-quality mail

submitted by a small number of mailers.

Item 13: Improving quality throughout

all mailing processes is a long-term need

to which all members of the mailing

industry should subscribe. As quality is

improved and corresponding increases

in efficiencies and stabilization of rates

are achieved, more, not less, mail will

result.

Item 14: MQA will focus initially on

the largest volume mailers, then move

down the chain to smaller volume

mailers. The USPS will monitor this

process and has built an objective

approach to selecting which mail will

be analyzed.

PRESIDIO TRUST

Presidio Theatre Building 99, The

Presidio of San Francisco, CA; Notice

of Intent to Prepare an Environmental

Impact Statement

AGENCY: The Presidio Trust.

ACTION: Notice of intent to prepare an

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)

for the rehabilitation and expansion of

the Presidio Theatre (Building 99)

within The Presidio of San Francisco,

San Francisco, California (Presidio).

SUMMARY: The Presidio Trust (Trust) has

received a proposal from one of its

tenants, the San Francisco Film Centre,

for rehabilitation and expansion of the

Presidio Theatre (Theatre) within the

Presidio. Pursuant to section 102(2)(C)

of the National Environmental Policy

Act of 1969 (Pub. L. 91–90 as amended)

(NEPA), and the regulations

promulgated by the Council on

Environmental Quality (40 CFR 1505.2),

the Trust has determined that an EIS

rather than an Environmental

Assessment, as previously noticed in

the Federal Register (65 FR 20218), will

better serve the agency to comply with

the NEPA. Therefore, the Trust will

prepare an EIS for rehabilitating the

existing 15,140-square-foot Theatre and

adding up to 45,000 square feet of new

construction for theater uses, a

restaurant, retail museum and library

store (proposed action). The EIS will

include a discussion of the significant

environmental impacts, and will inform

decisionmakers and the public of

reasonable alternatives which would

minimize adverse impacts or enhance

the quality of the environment,

including ‘‘no action’’ and reuse of

existing buildings to avoid new

construction. Based on a preliminary

review of the proposed action and input

received during scoping to date, issues

and impact topics to be analyzed

include: traffic and transportation

systems; cultural resources (effect on

national historic landmark district and

archeological resources); hydrology and

water quality; visual resources and

scenic viewing; air quality; and noise.

Public Comment

The Trust will hold a second public

workshop/open house on June 19, 2000

to solicit comment regarding the range

of alternatives to be evaluated in the

EIS. A tour of the Theatre will be

conducted from 5:30 to 6 p.m.; those

interested in the tour will meet at 5:30

p.m. on June 19, 2000 in front of the

Theatre, which is located at the corner

of Moraga Avenue and Montgomery

Street on the Main Post in the Presidio.

The workshop will run from 6 to 8 p.m.

at the San Francisco Film Centre

(Building 39), which is located opposite

the flagpole at the top of Graham Street

on the Main Post in the Presidio. The

Trust has chosen to extend the public

scoping period to July 28, 2000 to

provide additional time for the public to

comment on the project. Comments

regarding the scope of alternatives and

impacts that the Trust received before

its decision to proceed with an EIS will

still be considered. The Trust will

provide other informal information

updates and notices concerning this

project through postings on its website

at www.presidiotrust.gov or through its

monthly publication, the Presidio Post.

The Trust will announce the release of

the EIS by notice in the Federal Register

and the Presidio Post, and through a

direct mailing to the affected public.

ADDRESSES: Written comments

concerning this notice must be sent by

July 28, 2000 to John Pelka, NEPA

Compliance Coordinator, The Presidio

Trust, 34 Graham Street, P.O. Box

29052, San Francisco, CA 94129–0052.

RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD

Proposed Collection; Comment

Request

SUMMARY: In accordance with the

requirements of Section 3506 (c)(2)(A)

of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

which provides opportunity for public

comment on new or revised data

collections, the Railroad Retirement

Board (RRB) will publish periodic

summaries of proposed data collections.

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether

the proposed information collection is

necessary for the proper performance of

the functions of the agency, including

whether the information has practical

utility; (b) the accuracy of the RRB’s

estimate of the burden of the collection

of the information; (c) ways to enhance

the quality, utility, and clarity of the

information to be collected; and (d)

ways to minimize the burden related to

the collection of information on

respondents, including the use of

automated collection techniques or

other forms of information technology.

Title and purpose of information

collection: Student Beneficiary

Monitoring; OMB 3220–0123.

Under provisions of the Railroad

Retirement Act (RRA), there are two

types of benefits whose payment is

based upon the status of a child being

a full-time student, a survivor benefit

under Section 2 and an increased

retirement benefit under Section 3(f)(3).

A survivor benefit is paid directly to the

student unless there is a representative

payee. The benefit for a student in a life

case is paid by increasing the retired

parent’s annuity rate under the overall

minimum guaranty. The requirements

for obtaining benefits based on full-time

student status are prescribed in 20 CFR

219.54 and 219.55.

The RRB requires evidence of fulltime school attendance in order to

determine that a child is entitled to

student benefits. The RRB utilizes the

following forms to conduct its student

monitoring program. Form G–315,

Student Questionnaire, obtains

certification of a student’s full-time

school attendance. It also obtains

information on a student’s marital

status, Social Security benefits, and

employment which are needed to

determine entitlement or continued

entitlement to benefits under the RRA.

Form G–315a, Statement by School

Official of Student’s Full-time

Attendance, is used to obtain

verification from a school that a student

attends school full-time and provides

their expected graduation date. Form G–

315a.1, Notice of Cessation of Full-Time

Attendance, is used by a school to notify
