DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

National Institute of Standards and

Technology

Manufacturing Extension Partnership

National Advisory Board

AGENCY: National Institute of Standards

and Technology, Department of

Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of open meeting.

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the Federal

Advisory Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. app.

2, notice is hereby given that the

Manufacturing Extension Partnership

(MEP) National Advisory Board,

National Institute of Standards and

Technology (NIST), will meet to hold a

meeting on Thursday, May 28, 1998.

The Manufacturing Extension

Partnership National Advisory Board is

composed of 9 members appointed by

the Director of NIST who were selected

for their expertise in the area of

industrial extension and their work on

behalf of smaller manufacturers. The

Board was set up under the direction of

the Director of the National Institute of

Standards and Technology to fill a need

for outside input and advice for MEP, a

unique program consisting of centers in

all 50 states and Puerto Rico which are

created by a state, federal and local

partnership. The Board works closely

with the Manufacturing Extension

Partnership to provide input and advice

on MEP’s programs, plans and policies.

The purpose of this meeting is to delve

into areas the Board selected at the

previous meeting. On May 28, 1998, the

agenda for the meeting of the Board will

include an MEP overview, program

impacts as a result of the federal

investment, the importance of center

assessments on companies, and the

status of system-wide programs and

services.

DATES: The meeting will convene on

May 28, 1998 at 8:30 p.m. and will

adjourn at 4:00 p.m.

ADDRESSES: the meeting will be held in

Building 101, Lecture Room A (seating

capacity 50, includes 15 participants), at

NIST, Gaithersburg, Maryland.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: MEP

services to smaller manufacturers

address the needs of the national market

as well as the unique needs of each

company. Since MEP is committed to

providing this type of individualized

service through its centers, the program

requires the perspective of locally-based

experts to be incorporated into its

national plans. The MEP National

Advisory Board was set up at the

direction of the Director of the National

Institute of Standards and Technology

to maintain MEP’s focus on local and

market based needs. The MEP National

Advisory Board was approved on

October 24, 1996, in accordance with

the Federal Advisory Committee Act, 5

U.S.C. app. 2., to provide advice on

MEP programs, plans, and policies;

assess soundness of MEP plans and

strategies; assess current performance

against MEP program plans, and

function in an advisory capacity. The

Board will meet three times a year and

reports to the Director of NIST. This will

be the second meeting of the members

in 1998.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Department of the Army

Record of Decision on the Final

Environmental Impact Statement

(FEIS) on the Disposal and Reuse of

the Seneca Army Depot Activity, New

York

AGENCY: Department of the Army, DoD.

ACTION: Notice of availability.

SUMMARY: The Department of the Army

announces its Record of Decision (ROD)

on the Final Environmental Impact

Statement (FEIS) for the disposal and

reuse of the 10,594 acres comprising the

Seneca Army Depot Activity (SEDA), in

accordance with the Defense Base

Closure and Realignment Act of 1990,

Public Law 101–510, as amended. The

establishment of an enclave as directed

by the BRAC Commission would require

the Army’s retention of 30 acres to be

used for storage of hazardous materials

and ores.

In the ROD, the Army concludes that

the FEIS adequately addresses the

impacts of property disposal and

documents its decision to transfer the

property as encumbered. The ROD

concludes that the surplus property will

be conveyed subject to restrictions,

identified in the FEIS, that relate to the

following: historical resources, remedial

activities, access easement, wetlands,

groundwater use, lead-based paint,

asbestos-containing material, easements

and rights-of-way, and unexploded

ordnance. The Army will impose deed

restrictions or other requirements to

ensure safety and protection of human

health and the environment. The Army

has taken all practicable measures to

avoid or minimize environmental harm

associated with its preferred alternative

of encumbered property disposal. The

Army will continue to work with

individual future owners to avoid,

reduce, or compensate for adverse

impacts that might occur as a result of

disposal. Mitigation measures for reuse

activities are identified in the FEIS.

ADDRESSES: A copy of the ROD may be

obtained by writing to Ms. Shirley

Barnett, U.S. Army Materiel Command,

ATTN: AMCSO, 5001 Eisenhower

Avenue, Alexandria, VA 22333–0001 or

by calling (703) 617–8172. Copies of the

Final EIS may be obtained by writing to

Mr. Hugh McClellan, Corps of

Engineers, Mobile District, ATTN:

SAMPD, PO Box 2288, Mobile, Alabama

36628–0001 or by facsimile at (334)

690–2605.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the

Act, the Secretary of the Army has been

delegated the authority to dispose of

excess real property and facilities

located at a military installation being

closed or realigned. The Army is

required to comply with the National

Environmental Policy Act during the

process of property disposal and must

prepare appropriate analyses of the

impacts of disposal and, indirectly, of

reuse of the property on the

environment. The ROD and the FEIS

satisfy requirements of the law to

examine the environmental impacts of

disposal and reuse of the Seneca Army

Depot Activity.
