Sabine River Authority of Texas; Sabine River Authority, State of 
Louisiana; Notice of Dispute Resolution Panel Meeting and Technical 
Conference

September 24, 2009.
    On September 15, 2009, Commission staff, in response to the filing 
of a notice of study dispute by the U.S. Department of Agriculture 
(Forest Service) on August 26, 2009, convened a single three-person 
Dispute Resolution Panel pursuant to 18 CFR 5.14(d).
    The Panel will hold a technical conference at the time and place 
noted below. The session will address study disputes regarding 
terrestrial special status species, cultural resources, non-native 
invasive plant species (noxious weeds), land use, and soil erosion. The 
focus of the technical session is for the disputing agencies, 
applicants, and Commission to provide the Panel with additional 
information necessary to evaluate the disputed studies. All local, 
State, and Federal agencies, Indian tribes, and other interested 
parties are invited to attend the meeting as observers. The Panel also 
may request information or clarification on written submissions, as 
necessary, to understand the matters in dispute. The Panel will limit 
all input that it receives to the specific studies or information in 
dispute and will focus on the applicability of such studies or 
information to the study criteria stipulated in 18 CFR 5.9(b). If the 
number of participants wishing to speak creates time constraints, the 
Panel may, at their discretion, limit the speaking time for each 
participant.
