includes, but is not limited to air

quality, plant and animal habitats, and

water resources, such as streams. It will

also evaluate potential effects on the

surrounding communities, including

land use patterns, transportation,

housing, and the regional economy.

Further, the Navy will examine

potential effects on existing airspace,

training range use, and on aircraft noise

exposure levels in and around the bases.

The Navy is initiating a scoping

process to identify community concerns

and local issues that will be addressed

in the EIS. Federal, state, and local

agencies, and interested persons are

encouraged to provide oral and/or

written comments to the Navy to

identify environmental concerns that

should be addressed in the EIS. To be

most helpful, scoping comments should

clearly describe the specific issues or

topics that the EIS should address.

Written comments must be

postmarked by September 8, 2000, and

should be mailed to: Commander,

Atlantic Division, Naval Facilities

collection requests as required by the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section

that the Office of Management and

Budget (OMB) provide interested

Federal agencies and the public an early

opportunity to comment on information

collection requests. OMB may amend or

waive the requirement for public

consultation to the extent that public

participation in the approval process

would defeat the purpose of the

information collection, violate State or

Federal law, or substantially interfere

with any agency’s ability to perform its

statutory obligations. The Leader,

Regulatory Information Management,

Office of the Chief Information Officer,

publishes that notice containing

proposed information collection

requests prior to submission of these

requests to OMB. Each proposed

information collection, grouped by

office, contains the following: (1) Type

of review requested, e.g. new, revision,

extension, existing or reinstatement; (2)

Title; (3) Summary of the collection; (4)

Description of the need for, and

proposed use of, the information; (5)

Respondents and frequency of

collection; and (6) Reporting and/or

Recordkeeping burden. OMB invites

public comment. The Department of

Education is especially interested in

public comment addressing the

following issues: (1) Is this collection

necessary to the proper functions of the

Department; (2) will this information be

processed and used in a timely manner;

(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;

(4) how might the Department enhance

the quality, utility, and clarity of the

information to be collected; and (5) how

might the Department minimize the

burden of this collection on the

respondents, including through the use

of information technology.
