FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Superintendent, Pea Ridge National
Military Park, 15930 Highway 62, Garfield, Arkansas 72732, telephone
417-732-2662.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NPS prepared a draft GMP/EIS for Pea
Ridge, pursuant to the National Environmental Policy At of 1969. This
draft was made available for public review for 60 days (December 2005
to February 2006). Hard copy versions of the draft were distributed,
and Pea Ridge made the draft EIS available on the Web, at the park, and
in area libraries. A public presentation, attended by 25 participants,
was held for the public to discuss and comment on the draft. The
consensus of the public during the presentation was that the NPS would
pursue the correct path for Pea Ridge by following Alternative 4, the
preferred alternative. Comments from public agencies on the draft GMP/
EIS will not require the NPS to add other alternatives, significantly
alter existing alternatives, or make changes to the impact analysis of
effects for any of the alternatives. Thus, an abbreviated format is
used for the responses to comments in the final EIS, in compliance with
the implementing regulations (40 CFR 1503.4(c) for the National
Environmental Policy At, and the NPS Director's Order 12.

    Dated: May 22, 2008
Ernest Quintana,
Regional Director, Midwest Region.
