DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

Fish and Wildlife Service


Coastal Barrier Improvement Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101-591); 
Technical Corrections to the Coastal Barrier Resources System

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of the Interior, through the Fish and Wildlife 
Service, has completed modifications to the boundaries of two units of 
the Coastal Barrier Resources System (System), one in New York (NY-59P) 
and one in South Carolina (SC-01), as required by Public Law 104-148 
and Public Law 104-265, respectively. The purpose of this notice is to 
inform the public about the filing, distribution, and availability of 
maps reflecting these modifications.

DATES: The boundary revision for Unit NY-59P became effective on May 
24, 1996; the boundary revision for Unit SC-01 became effective on 
October 9, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the revised maps for the two System units are 
available for purchase from the U.S. Geological Survey, Earth Science 
Information Center, P.O. Box 25286, Denver, Colorado 80225. Official 
maps can be viewed at the Fish and Wildlife Service offices listed in 
the appendix.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION:
Contact Ms. Denise Henne, Department of the Interior, U.S. Fish and 
Wildlife Service, Division of Habitat Conservation, (703) 358-2201.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 2 of Public Law 104-148 requires the 
Department to modify the maps of the System to move the eastern 
boundary of the excluded area of the Fire Island Unit NY-59P (covering 
Ocean Beach, Seaview, Ocean Bay Park, and part of Point O' Woods) to 
the western boundary of the Sunken Forest Preserve. This law further 
directs the Department to ensure that the depiction of ``otherwise 
protected areas'' does not include any area owned by the Point O' Woods 
Association, a privately held corporation under the laws of the State 
of New York.
    Section 201 of Public Law 104-265 requires the Department of the 
Interior to modify the maps of the Coastal Barrier Resources System to 
move the southernmost boundary of the Long Pond Unit SC-01 to exclude 
from the unit structures known as ``Lands End,'' ``Beachwalk,'' and 
``Courtyard Villas'' and extend the boundary in a straight line between 
the coast and north boundary of the unit at the break in development.
    Copies of the revised System maps have been filed with the House of 
Representatives Committee on Resources and the Committee on Banking and 
Financial Services, and the Senate Committee on Environment and Public 
Works. Copies of these maps have been distributed to the Chief 
Executive Officer (or representative) of each appropriate Federal, 
State, or local agency having jurisdiction over the areas in which the 
modified units are located. Copies of the maps are also available for 
inspection at Service headquarters, regional, and field offices (see 
addresses in appendix).

    Dated: April 10, 1997.
John G. Rogers,
Acting Director, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Department of the 
Interior.
