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/.

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.
Editorial Note: This document was received at the Office of the
Federal Register on Thursday, December 6, 2007.
