SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant 

to the National Environmental Policy 

Act of 1969, the National Park Service 

is preparing a Draft General 

Management Plan/Environmental 

Impact Statement (Draft GMP/EIS) for 

Assateague Island National Seashore 

(Seashore) to replace the 1982 GMP 

which does not adequately address the 

issues facing the Seashore today. Once 

approved, the GMP will guide and 

direct management strategies for the 

future that support the protection of 

outstanding Mid-Atlantic coastal 

resources of Assateague Island and its 

adjacent waters and the natural 

processes upon which they depend and 

the provision of high quality, resourcecompatible recreational experiences. 

The Draft GMP/EIS evaluates the 

continuation of current management (no 

action alternative) and three action 

alternatives with particular emphasis on 

how the park may respond to climate 

change and sea level rise and analyzes 

the environmental consequences of 

implementing any of the alternatives.

trade has been published annually since 

1996, except in 2005. As in past years, 

the report will summarize trade in 

services in the aggregate and provide 

analyses of trends and developments in 

selected services industries during the 

latest period for which data are 

published by the U.S. Department of 

Commerce, Bureau of Economic 

Analysis. As indicated above, the 2016 

report will focus on trade in financial 

services (banking, insurance, and 

securities services).
