Notice of Termination of Preparation of an Environmental Impact 
Statement for the Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary Route Resource 
Study

AGENCY: National Park Service, Department of the Interior.

ACTION: Termination of preparation of an environmental impact 
statement.

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

SUMMARY: This notice announces the termination of the process to 
develop an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Washington-
Rochambeau Revolutionary Route Resource Study. The study area includes 
parts of Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, 
New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Virginia. In accordance with 
section 102(2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, the 
National Park Service published a Notice of Intent to Prepare an 
Environmental Impact Statement in the Federal Register on March 5, 
2002.
    Subsequent scoping did not reveal the potential for significant 
adverse impacts or controversy; therefore, it was determined that an 
Environmental Assessment (EA) would suffice to address National 
Environmental Policy Act requirements for this study.
    The Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary Route Resource Study and 
Environmental Assessment was made available for public review starting 
11/13/2006, and the comment period ended 5/4/2007. Based on the results 
of public comments, a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) was 
prepared for review and approval by the NPS Northeast Regional 
Director.
    The study report can be viewed at the NPS Planning, Environment and 
Public Comment (PEPC) Web site at: http://parkplanning.nps.gov/.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Terrence Moore, Chief of Planning and 
Special Studies, National Park Service, Northeast Region, 200 Chestnut 
Street, 3rd Floor, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

    Dated: September 24, 2007.
Dennis R. Reidenbach,
Director, Northeast Region, National Park Service.
