DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
National Park Service
 
Final Environmental Impact Statement; Alcatraz Island Historic 
Preservation and Safety Construction; Golden Gate National Recreation 
Area, California, Notice of Approval of Record of Decision

SUMMARY: Pursuant to Sec. 102(2)(C) of the National Environmental 
Policy Act of 1969 (Pub. L. 91-190, as amended) and the regulations 
promulgated by the Council on Environmental Quality (40 CFR Part 
1505.2), the Department of the Interior, National Park Service has 
prepared and approved a Record of Decision for the Final Environmental 
Impact Statement for the Alcatraz Island Historic Preservation and 
Safety Construction Program, Golden Gate National Recreation Area. The 
no-action period was initiated October 26, 2001, with the U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency's Federal Register (V66, N208, P54241) 
notification of the filing of the Final Environmental Impact Statement 
(FEIS).
    Decision: As soon as practical the National Park Service will begin 
to implement the historic preservation and safety construction program 
described as the Proposed Action alternative contained in the FEIS, 
issued in October, 2001. This alternative was deemed to be the 
``environmentally preferred'' alternative, and it was further 
determined that implementation of the selected actions will not 
constitute an impairment of park values or resources. This course of 
action and two additional alternatives were identified and analyzed in 
the Final and Draft Environmental Impact Statements (the latter was 
distributed in March 2001). The full range of foreseeable environmental 
consequences were assessed, and appropriate mitigation measures 
identified.
    Copies: Interested parties desiring to review the Record of 
Decision may obtain a copy by contacting the Superintendent, Golden 
Gate National Recreation Area, Building 201, Fort Mason, San Francisco, 
CA 94123; or via telephone request at (415) 561-4936.
