SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On April 3, 2006, the Animal and 

Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) 

published a notice in the Federal 

Register (71 FR 16547–16548, Docket 

No. APHIS–2006–0035) announcing 

APHIS’ intent to prepare a supplemental 

environmental impact statement (EIS) to 

address wildlife hazards to aircraft 

resulting from changes in wildlife 

populations and land uses in and 

around the John F. Kennedy 

International Airport. This action is a 

supplement to the Gull Hazard 

Reduction Program at John F. Kennedy 

International Airport Final EIS, May 

1994. 

The supplemental EIS has been 

prepared in cooperation with the 

Department of Interior’s Fish and 

Wildlife Service and National Park 

Service, the Federal Aviation 

Administration, the New York State 

Department of Environmental 

Conservation, the New York City 

Department of Parks and Recreation, the 

New York City Department of 

Environmental Protection, and the Port 

Authority of New York and New Jersey. 

A notice of availability regarding the 

draft supplemental EIS was published 

by the Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA) in the Federal Register on 

January 14, 2011 (76 FR 2680, Docket 

No. ER–FRL–8994–6), and a notice of 

availability regarding the final 

supplemental EIS was published by 

EPA in the Federal Register on May 11, 

2012 (77 FR 27771, Docket No. ER– 

FRL–9002–9). The NEPA implementing 

regulations in 40 CFR 1506.10 require a 

minimum 30-day waiting period 

between the time a final EIS is 

published and the time an agency makes 

a decision on an action covered by the 

EIS. APHIS has reviewed the final 

supplemental EIS and comments 

received during the 30-day waiting 

period and has concluded that it has 

fully analyzed the issues covered by the 

draft supplemental EIS and those 

comments and suggestions submitted by 

commenters. Based on our final 

supplemental EIS, the response to 

public comments, and other pertinent 

scientific data, APHIS has prepared a 

record of decision. 

The record of decision has been 

prepared in accordance with: (1) The 

National Environmental Policy Act of 

1969 (NEPA), as amended (42 U.S.C. 

4321 et seq.); (2) regulations of the 

Council on Environmental Quality for 

implementing the procedural provisions 

of NEPA (40 CFR parts 1500–1508); (3) 

USDA regulations implementing NEPA 

(7 CFR part 1b); and (4) APHIS’ NEPA 

Implementing Procedures (7 CFR part 

372). 

Done in Washington, DC, this 20th day of 

July 2012.
