(B) reconciling any 2 or more federal

mandates which impose contradictory

or inconsistent requirements;

(C) terminating federal mandates

which are duplicative, obsolete, or

lacking in practical utility;

(D) suspending, on a temporary basis,

federal mandates which are not vital to

public health and safety and which

compound the fiscal difficulties for

state, local, and tribal governments,

including recommendations for

triggering such suspensions;

(E) consolidating or simplifying

federal mandates, or the planning or

reporting requirements of such

mandates, in order to reduce

duplication and facilitate compliance by

state, local, and tribal governments with

those mandates;

(F) establishing common federal

definitions or standards to be used by

state, local, and tribal governments in

complying with federal mandates that

use different definitions or standards for

the same terms or principles; and

(G) (i) the mitigation of negative

impacts on the private sector that may

result form relieving state, local, and

tribal governments from federal

mandates (if and to the extent that such

negative impacts exist on the private

sector); and

(ii) the feasibility of applying relief

from federal mandates in the same

manner and to the same extent to

private sector entities as such relief is

applied to state, local, and tribal

governments.

These recommendations are to be

based on criteria established by the

ACIR. Within 60 days after enactment of

the Act, proposed criteria must be

issued for public comment. To assist the

Commission in the development of

proposed criteria, suggestions are being

solicited on an informal basis from

interested parties. Because time is

limited for the preparation of the

proposed criteria, all suggestions should

be received by ACIR no later than

Friday, April 28 1995.

Suggestions received will be reviewed

by staff and may, or may not, be

incorporated in the proposed criteria.

All suggestions that are submitted will

be available for inspection at ACIR

offices, but no specific or general

response to them will be made by ACIR

staff. Those submitting suggestions will

not be subsequently bound by their

contents, and will have full rights to

comment on the proposed criteria

during the public comment period.

In addition to suggestions about

criteria, ACIR also welcomes

suggestions about the following topics:

1. In conducting the studies under

Section 302, ACIR is to give highest

priority to ‘‘reviewing and making

recommendations regarding Federal

mandates that are the subject of judicial

proceedings.’’ Because it is likely that

there are a large number of lawsuits

contesting existing mandates, lists of

mandates currently in federal courts

will be appreciated, with identification

of the court and case number, if

possible.

2. Lists of other mandates that

respondents feel should be given special

attention in the study.

Suggstions or inquiries should be

addressed as follows: Charles Griffiths,

Relations, 800 K St. N.W., Suite 450

at Fort Stanton Reservation New

SUMMARY: Pursuant to 43 CFR part 8364

and the Fort Stanton Management

Framework Plan (MFP) of May 28, 1980,

the Bureau of Land Management (BLM)

will close a portion of the access road

to the Rio Bonito Campground starting

at the west boundary of Camp Sierra

Blanca (Fort Stanton, NM) and

extending about 9⁄109/10 of a mile west

into public lands administered by the

Roswell District, BLM. The BLM will

close the Rio Bonito Campground to

camping and motorized vehicle use. The

road leading from the campground to

the north mesa of Fort Stanton

Reservation will also be closed to motor

vehicle use.

DATES: The closure will become

effective at the date of publication of

this notice.

ADDRESSES: Information and maps

showing the location of the above

closures will be available at the Bureau

of Land Management, Roswell District

Office, 1717 West 2nd Street, Roswell,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Timothy R. Kreager, Area Manager,

Roswell Resource Area, P.O. Drawer

telephone (505) 624–1790.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A threeacre campground will be closed to

camping and motor vehicle access.

Approximately three miles of roads will

also be closed to motor vehicles. The

following describes the areas:

New Mexico Principal Meridian

Fort Stanton Reservation

One section of the road closure is located

in unsurveyed and protracted portions of

T.9S., R.14E., Sec. 34, SE1⁄4SE1⁄4, Sec. 35,

SW1⁄4NE1⁄4.

Another section of road closure is located

in unsurveyed and protracted portions of

T.9S., R.14E., Sec. 32, SE1⁄4SE1⁄4; Sec. 33,

SW1⁄4SW1⁄4; T. 10S., R.14E., Sec. 4, W1⁄2.

The campground is located in unsurveyed

and protracted portions of T.10S., R.14E.,

Sec. 4, SE1⁄4SW1⁄4.

Camp Sierra Blanca (CSB) a minimum

security prison for the State of New Mexico,

Fort Stanton, NM, has requested the BLM

discourage public use of a traditional access

route through the prison to public lands.

Traditionally, the road was used for access

through CSB to the west side of the Fort

Stanton Reservation and the Rio Bonito

Campground. The closure of the road has

become necessary for prison security and

safety of visitors using public lands within

this portion of the Fort Stanton reservation.

The campground will be closed due to its

loss of access and need of a prolonged rest

to renew the environment. The campground

area has received severe damage to soils,

mature trees and riparian vegetation through

use by the visiting public during the past ten

years. Damage includes soil compaction from

vehicles, soil sterilization from uncontained

fire pits, vegetation trampling and tree

cutting. An access road leading from the

north side of the Rio Bonito Campground to

the north mesa of Fort Stanton will also be

closed. The road is poorly constructed and

causes severe soil erosion. The road is also

a safety hazard to the public, due to steep

grades and slippery conditions when wet.

Current alternatives in the Draft Resource

Management Plan (RMP) for the Roswell

Resource Area include proposals for

additional campgrounds within the Fort

Stanton Reservation Area. The alternatives

for campgrounds in the RMP will be

environmentally suitable, have better access

and will serve the public to a greater extent.

After the final RMP and Record of Decision

are issued, a Special Management Area

(SMA) Plan will be developed to analyze and

select future campground locations within

the Fort Stanton Reservation Area.

Due to the closure of traditional access

routes to the campground from CSB for
15786 Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 58 / Monday, March 27, 1995 / Notices

security and public safety concerns, damage

caused by camping pressure and closure of

the north mesa access road due to

environmental damage, the Rio Bonito

Campground will be closed to camping and

vehicle use.
