SUMMARY: Pursuant to section 102 (2)(C) of the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969, the National Park Service announces the
availability of the Draft General Management Plan / Draft Environmental
Impact Statement (GMP/EIS) for Saratoga National Historical Park, New
York. Consistent with the park's mission, National Park Service policy,
and other laws and regulations, the Draft GMP/EIS presents four
alternatives to guide park management over the next 15 to 20 years. The
alternatives incorporate various management prescriptions to ensure
protection and public enjoyment of the park's resources. The report
also evaluates potential environmental consequences of implementing the
alternatives. Impact topics include cultural and natural resources,
visitor experience, park operations, the socioeconomic environment, and
impairment. Alternative D is the preferred alternative.
DATES: The Draft GMP/EIS will be on public review for 60 days from 1/2/
04 through 3/1/04. Public meetings will be held during this period and
will be publicized in local media outlets.
