Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 119 / Tuesday, June 23, 2009 / Notices 29663

Transportation for highway access; San 

Miguel County subdivision approval for 

the subdivision of private lands being 

accessed. 

Comment Requested 

This notice of intent initiates the 

scoping process which guides the 

development of the environmental 

impact statement. Public scoping 

describing the proposed ANILCA access 

to Alta town-site is being initiated with 

this Notice of Intent. Comments from 

this scoping effort will be reviewed to 

identify potential issues for this 

analysis. While comments are welcome 

at any time, comments received within 

45 days of the publication of this notice 

in the Federal Register will be most 

useful for the identification of issues 

and the analysis of alternatives. The 

name and mailing address of 

commenters should be provided with 

their comments so that future 

documents pertaining to this 

environmental analysis and the decision 

can be provided to interested parties. 

In the final EIS, the Forest Service 

will respond to any comments, received 

during the public review of the draft 

EIS, that pertain to the environmental 

analysis. Those comments and the 

Forest Service responses will be 

disclosed and discussed in the final EIS 

and will be considered when the final 

decision about this proposal is made. 

Early Notice of Importance of Public 

Participation in Subsequent 

Environmental Review: A draft 

environmental impact statement will be 

prepared for comment. The comment 

period on the draft environmental 

impact statement will be 45 days from 

the date the Environmental Protection 

Agency publishes the notice of 

availability in the Federal Register. 

The Forest Service believes, at this 

early stage, it is important to give 

reviewers notice of several court rulings 

related to public participation in the 

environmental review process. First, 

reviewers of draft environmental impact 

statements must structure their 

participation in the environmental 

review of the proposal so that it is 

meaningful and alerts an agency to the 

reviewer’s position and contentions. 

Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corp. v. 

NRDC, 435 U.S. 519, 553 (1978). Also, 

environmental objections that could be 

raised at the draft environmental impact 

statement stage but that are not raised 

until after completion of the final 

environmental impact statement may be 

waived or dismissed by the courts. City 

of Angoon v. Hodel, 803 F.2d 1016, 

1022 (9th Cir. 1986) and Wisconsin 

Heritages, Inc. v. Harris, 490 F. Supp. 

1334, 1338 (E.D. Wis. 1980). Because of 

these court rulings, it is very important 

that those interested in this proposed 

action participate by the close of the 45- 

day comment period so that substantive 

comments and objections are made 

available to the Forest Service at a time 

when it can meaningfully consider them 

and respond to them in the final 

environmental impact statement. 

To assist the Forest Service in 

identifying and considering issues and 

concerns on the proposed action, 

comments on the draft environmental 

impact statement should be as specific 

as possible. It is also helpful if 

comments refer to specific pages or 

chapters of the draft statement. 

Comments may also address the 

adequacy of the draft environmental 

impact statement or the merits of the 

alternatives formulated and discussed in 

the statement. Reviewers may wish to 

refer to the Council on Environmental 

Quality Regulations for implementing 

the procedural provisions of the 

National Environmental Policy Act at 40 

CFR 1503.3 in addressing these points. 

Comments received, including the 

names and addresses of those who 

comment, will be considered part of the 

public record on this proposal and will 

be available for public inspection.
