    The National Park Service has received from Bright and Company, a

    Pursuant to Sec. 9.52(b) of Title 36 of the Code of Federal 
Regulations, Part 9, Subpart B (36 CFR 9B); Executive Order 11988, 
Floodplain Management; and Executive Order 11990, Protection of

    Bright and Company has sited their proposed operations to avoid 
impacts to wetlands, as much as possible, and has developed mitigation 
measures to minimize unavoidable impacts. Bright and Company proposes 
to compensate for direct lost of 0.4 acres of non-tidal wetlands by 
restoring 0.8 acres of an abandoned oil and gas access road to its 
original wind-tidal flat condition. The wetlands compensation project 
is also located at Padre Island National Seashore.
