70734 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 228 / Monday, November 27, 2000 / Notices

Federal Register (65 FR 63076). The

notice stated that the required 30-day no

action period for the proposal would

end on November 20, 2000.

The managing agencies listed above

have elected to delay signing a record of

decision on this project, and to extend

the no action period until January 31,

2001. No decision will be made about

the proposal until after this date; the

agencies will not undertake actions to

implement any portion of this plan until

after this date.

The decision to extend the no action

period was made because (a) the

managing agencies and the U.S. Fish

and Wildlife Service have elected to

reinitiate consultation on the project

pursuant to section 7 of the Endangered

Species Act, (b) CD–ROM versions of

the document were not available until

mid-November, possibly precluding

some persons from reviewing the

document, and (c) the cover sheet in the

FCMP/FEIS listed an incorrect post

office box where comments may be sent.

The correct address for comments is

printed below.

DATES: The no-action period on this

FEIS will now expire January 31, 2001.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Lower

St. Croix National Scenic Riverway is a

narrow corridor that runs for 52 miles

along the boundary of Minnesota and

Wisconsin, from St. Croix Falls/Taylors

Falls to the confluence with the

Mississippi River at Prescott/Point

Douglas. The National Park Service

manages a portion of the upper 27 miles

of lands and waters of this corridor. The

states of Minnesota and Wisconsin

administer the lower 25 miles. The

states and the federal government

jointly conduct planning for the

riverway.

The purpose of the cooperative

management plan is to set forth the

basic management philosophy for the

riverway and to provide the strategies

for addressing issues and achieving

identified management objectives. The

FCMP/FEIS describes and analyzes the

environmental impacts of a proposed

action and four action alternatives for

the future management direction of the

riverway. The FCMP/FEIS also

evaluates a preferred management

structure and two management structure

options for the riverway. No action

alternatives are evaluated for both

management direction and management

structure.

The responsible officials are Mr.

William Schenk, Midwest Regional

Director, National Park Service; Mr.

Allen Garber, Commissioner, Minnesota

Department of Natural Resources; and

Mr. George Meyer, Secretary, Wisconsin

Department of Natural Resources.

Dated: November 17, 2000.

Regional Director, Midwest Region.
