SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: 7 CFR Part 225, Summer Food

Service Program for Children.

OMB Number: 0584–0280.

Expiration Date: July 31, 1996.

Type of Request: Extension of

clearance for existing collection.

Abstract: Section 13 of the National

School Lunch Act (NSLA) (42 U.S.C.

1761 authorizes the SFSP. Subsection

13(m) of the NSLA directs that ‘‘States

and service institutions participating in

programs under this section shall keep

such accounts and records as may be

necessary to enable the Secretary to

determine whether there has been

compliance with this section and the

regulations issued hereunder. Such

accounts and records shall at all times

be available for inspection and audit by

representatives of the Secretary and

shall be preserved for such period of

time, not in excess of five years, as the

Secretary determines necessary.’’

SFSP provides assistance to States to

initiate and maintain nonprofit food

service programs for needy children

during summer months and at other

approved times. The food service to be

provided under SFSP is intended to

serve as a substitute for those programs

(the National School Lunch and School

Breakfast Programs) for children who

primarily are from needy areas. Under

this Program, a sponsor—a public or
33488 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 125 / Thursday, June 27, 1996 / Notices

nonprofit private school food authority;

a public or nonprofit private residential

summer camp; a unit of local,

municipal, county, or State government;

a public or private nonprofit college or

university currently participating in the

National Youth Sports Programs

(NYSP); or a private nonprofit

organization which develops a summer

or other school vacation program

providing food service similar to that

offered during the school year—receives

reimbursement for serving nutritious

well-balanced meals to eligible children

at food service sites.

Estimate of Burden: The reporting

burden for this collection of information

is estimated at 204,395 burden hours.

The major areas of the reporting burden

are attributed to the processing of

applications for participation by State

agencies, sponsors and camps; and

program monitoring of sites by State

agencies and sponsors, including the

inspection of food preparation facilities;

i.e., 63,189 and 86,779 hours,

respectively. The recordkeeping burden

is estimated at 17,574 burden hours.

Free and reduced price eligibility

determination for participants in camps

and sites not identified as areas in

which poor economic conditions exist,

comprises the majority of the

recordkeeping burden, i.e., 16,694

hours.

Respondents: State agencies,

sponsors, food service management

companies, camps, households.

Estimated Number of Respondents:

79,350 respondents.

Estimated Number of Responses per

Respondent: 4.2 responses.

Estimated Total Annual Burden on

Respondents: 221,969 burden hours.

Dated: June 20, 1996.

BILLING CODE 3410–30–P

Forest Service

Cascade Pt. Access Rd. and

Development, Tongass National

Forest, Chatham Area, Juneau Ranger

District, Juneau, AK

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice of intent to prepare an

environmental impact statement.

SUMMARY: The Department of

Agriculture, Forest Service will prepare

an Environmental Impact Statement

(EIS) to disclose the environmental

impacts of authorizing construction of

approximately 3 miles of new road on

National Forest System (NFS) lands near

Echo Cove, approximately 40 miles

north of Juneau, Alaska. The proposed

action is to issue a road easement

authorizing Goldbelt, Inc., an urban

Native Corporation authorized by the

Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act, to

construct a 28 ft. wide gravel road for

the purpose of accessing Goldbelt, Inc.

private lands. Initial development on

the private land would include a 3 acre

staging area and an equipment and log

transfer bulkhead on the beach.

Although the development on private

land would not be subject to Forest

Service authorization, it would require

a US Army, Corps of Engineers, Section

404 permit for fill in wetlands, as well

as a Section 10 permit for a structure

below Mean High Water in Berners Bay.

Proposed road construction would also

probably require a Section 404 permit

for fill in wetlands. Since the proposed

road construction would likely result in

development on private land, both will

be considered in this EIS. The Corps of

Engineers has consented to be a

cooperating agency.

Dunn Environmental Services, of

Juneau Alaska, has been selected as a

3rd party contractor to prepare the EIS.

The Forest Service is seeking

information and comments from

Federal, State, and local agencies as

well as individuals and organizations

who may be interested in, or affected by,

the proposed action.

DATES: Comments concerning the scope

of this analysis should be received on or

before July 29, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Send written comments or

requests for additional information to:

Jennette de Leeuw, USDA Forest

Service, Juneau Ranger District, 8465

Old Dairy Rd., Juneau, Alaska, 99801,

(907) 586–8800; or Art Dunn, Dunn

Environmental Services, 19890 Cohen

Dr., Juneau Alaska 99801 (907) 463–

3243.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

purpose and need for the proposed

action is to provide access to Goldbelt,

for development of privately owned

lands in Echo Cove. Reasonably

foreseeable actions on Goldbelt, Inc.

private land include: a fast ferry to

Haines and Skagway; a lodge/restaurant,

a convenience store and gas station;

electrical and water/sewage facilities,

and commercial fishing support

facilities. A Master Plan for Goldbelt,

Inc. lands at Echo Cove has been

submitted to the City and Borough of

Juneau for review and approval. The

activities mentioned above are

described in detail in that document.

Other activities planned could include

housing and related facilities for

workers at the historic Jualin Mine

Exploration site, approximately 5 miles

away. No proposal for development of

the Jualin Mine has been received, and

only continued exploration at the site

will be considered as reasonably

foreseeable.

The no action and proposed action

alternatives will be considered, as well

as alternatives which address significant

issues and meet the purpose and need

for the proposed action.

The proposed road alignment is

located on a 100 ft. wide strip of NFS

land acquired from Goldbelt, Inc. in a

land trade in 1984, to preserve Forest

Service land access to NFS lands to the

north. An Environmental Assessment

for a proposed timber sale at that time

also examined several alternative

alignments and chose this proposed

alignment as the most feasible.

Preliminary issues that have been

identified include impacts to

recreational opportunities in Echo Cove

and the National Forest System lands

around Berners Bay (Congressionally

Legislated LUD II); disruption of brown

and black bear habitat, mountain goat

wintering habitat, and pacific herring

spawning habitat; and visual and noise

impacts to Pt. Bridget State Park,

approximately 2 miles west of Cascade

Pt.

Preliminary scoping comments on the

proposal were solicited from February 8

through March 1, 1996. An open house

meeting was held on February 8, 1996

in Centennial Hall, Juneau, Alaska. Over

70 written comments were received in

response to the meeting.

Because of this extensive public

involvement and information from a

number of existing studies in the area

for other proposals, the draft EIS should

be available for public distribution in

late August of 1996. The final EIS is

scheduled to be completed in October of

1996. It is anticipated that permit

applicants for Sec. 404 and Sec. 10

Corps of Engineers permits will be

incorporated in the DEIS.

The comment period on the DEIS will

be 45 days from the date the

Environmental Protection Agency

publishes the notice of a availability in

the Federal Register.

Gary Morrison, the Forest Supervisor,

Tongass National Forest, Chatham Area,

is the official responsible for making the

decision. The decision to be made is

whether or not to issue a road easement

for construction of an access road on

National Forest System land as

proposed, and if the easement is

granted, decide the mitigation measures

that will be required. The US Army,

Corps of Engineers will issue a separate

decision document, based on the
