This information collection is 

mandated by Congress through Public 

Law 102–477, Indian Employment, 

Training and Related Services 

Demonstration Act (Act) of 1992, 

section, 17. The Act requires the 

Secretary to develop, maintain and 

publish, not less than biennially, a 

consolidated report on the population 

by gender, income level, age, and 

availability for work. The consolidated 

report will be submitted to the Senate 

Indian Affairs Committee, as required 

by the Act and other Federal agencies. 

The consolidated report will also be 

available to Indian tribes and the 

general public, upon request. 

The OMB Control Number for this 

information collection is 1076–0147. 

Approval for this information collection 

expired on July 31, 2008, while BIA was

were received in response to the 

announcement.

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden (hours 

and cost) of the collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(c) ways we could enhance the quality, 

utility and clarity of the information to 

be collected; and (d) ways we could 

minimize the burden of the collection of 

the information on the respondents, 

such as through the use of automated

information technology. 

Please note that an agency may not 

sponsor or request and an individual 

need not respond to, a collection of 

information unless it has a valid OMB 

Control Number.

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR 

National Park Service 

General Management Plan and 

Environmental Impact Statement, Lake 

Meredith National Recreation Area and 

Alibates Flint Quarries National 

Monument, TX 

AGENCY: National Park Service, 

Department of the Interior. 

ACTION: Notice of intent to prepare an 

environmental impact statement for the 

general management plan (GMP), Lake 

Meredith National Recreation Area and 

Alibates Flint Quarries National 

Monument. 

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 42 

U.S.C. 4332(2)(C), the National Park 

Service (NPS) is preparing an 

environmental impact statement for a 

general management plan for Lake 

Meredith National Recreation Area and 

Alibates Flint Quarries National 

Monument, Texas. The environmental 

impact statement will be approved by 

the Director, Intermountain Region. 

The general management plan will 

prescribe the resource conditions and 

visitor experiences that are to be 

achieved and maintained in the national 

recreation area and the national 

monument over the next 15 to 20 years. 

The clarification of what must be 

achieved according to law and policy 

will be based on review of the national 

recreation area and the national 

monument’s purpose, significance, 

special mandates, and the body of laws 

and policies directing management at 

NPS units. Based on determinations of 

desired conditions, the general 

management plan will outline the kinds 

of resource management activities, 

visitor activities, and development that 

would be appropriate in the future. A 

range of reasonable management 

alternatives will be developed through 

this planning process and will include, 

at a minimum, a no-action and a 

preferred alternative. 

The NPS is required to prepare a GMP 

for all NPS units. The last management 

plan prepared for Lake Meredith 

National Recreation Area was 

completed in 1985 and the last 

masterplan prepared for Alibates Flint 

Quarries National Monument was 

completed in 1978. These plans do not 

address changes in recreational use 

patterns related to changes in the water 

level at Lake Meredith, current resource 

management and visitor access issues at 

either unit, or current NPS park 

planning standards or NPS management 

policies. Because the national recreation 

area and the national monument are 

managed jointly, a single GMP will be 

prepared to cover both units. 

Issues to be addressed will include, 

but are not limited to the following: The 

management of visitor use and access 

into the national recreation area and the 

national monument, as well as facilities, 

interpretation, natural and cultural 

resources, and operations in the 

national recreation area and national 

monument. 

A scoping newsletter will be prepared 

that describes the issues identified to 

date. Copies of the newsletter may be 

obtained at the Lake Meredith National 

Recreation Area and Alibates Flint 

Quarries National Monument

DATES: Any comments on the scope of 

issues to be addressed in the plan 

should be submitted no later than 60 

days after publication of this notice. In 

addition to the newsletter, public 

meetings regarding the general 

management plan will be held during 

the scoping period. Specific dates, 

times, and locations will be made 

available in the local media, on the
