BILLING CODE 4310–DQ–P

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

National Park Service

Notice of Receipt of Application(s)

Received for Access to National Park

Service Property for the Siting of

Mobile Services Antennas

AGENCY: National Park Service,

Department of the Interior.

ACTION: Public notice of the receipt of an

application for a right-of-way permit for

a wireless telecommunications facility

and the acceptance of public comment.

SUMMARY: Public Notice is hereby given

that the National Park Service has

received an application from

Washington, D.C. SMSA Limited

Partnership (D.C. SMSA), managing

partners Cellco and Bell Atlantic

Mobile, for a right-of-way permit to

construct, operate and maintain a

wireless telecommunication site within

the George Washington Memorial

Parkway. The location within the park

is at the parkway headquarters complex

at Turkey Run Park in McLean, Virginia.

The facility would initially consist of a

single one-hundred and twenty foot

monopole with design options for an

associated equipment building ranging

from a single-story facility of 12 x 30

feet, up to and including a 22 x 30 foot

two-story (one-story above grade)

addition to an existing structure.

ADDRESSES: Comments concerning this

application should be directed to:

National Park Service, George

Washington Memorial Parkway, Turkey

Run Park, McLean, Virginia 22101, (703)

285–2600.

Interested parties may review the

application Monday through Friday,

from 8:00 am until 4:30 pm, at the

Parkway headquarters at Turkey Run

Park.

DATES: Written comments must be

received on or before July 2, 1998.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A

completed application was received on

May 13th, 1998. Within 60 days of that

date, the superintendent will approve

the application; approve the application

with changes; deny the application; or

notify the applicant of the need for

further evaluation to comply with the

National Environmental Policy Act

(NEPA), National Historic Preservation

Act, and/or other applicable laws and

regulations.

Before reaching a final decision on

this application, the NPS will undertake

an Environmental Assessment (EA) in

compliance with the NEPA. In addition,

the Park Superintendent may choose to

conduct a Comprehensive Assessment

for wireless communications which will

determine the extent to which, and the

means by which, George Washington

Memorial Parkway can accommodate

demands for wireless

telecommunication facility sites without

derogating park resources, values or

purposes. This assessment would also

explore the feasibility of co-location of

facilities.

National Park Service review of this

application will be in accord with all

applicable laws and regulations. The

NPS regulations for right-of-way permits

are located in Part 14 of Title 36 of the

Code of Federal Regulations. A draft

revision of these regulations was

published in the Federal Register on

December 1, 1997 (62 FR 63488). The

NPS will also follow the guidelines

developed by the General Services

Administration to implement Section

704(c) of the Telecommunications Act

of 1996 (47 U.S.C. 332) which was

published in the Federal Register on

March 29, 1996 (61 FR 14100). Other

laws applicable to the National Park

System include the National Park

Service Organic Act, the National

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), and

the National Historic Preservation Act.

(NHPA).

Dated: May 28, 1998.
