Environmental Impact Statement for a Special Use Permit to Dare 
County for Activities Related to the Protection of North Carolina 
Highway 12 in Cape Hatteras National Seashore, North Carolina

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior.

ACTION: Notice of termination of environmental impact statement.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The National Park Service (NPS) is terminating preparation of 
an environmental impact statement (EIS) for a Special Use Permit to 
Dare County for Activities Related to the Protection of North Carolina 
Highway 12 in Cape Hatteras National Seashore, North Carolina. Instead, 
the NPS will be preparing an environmental assessment (EA) to assist 
the NPS in determining whether, where, and under what conditions the 
NPS would issue a Special Use Permit to Dare County for actions related 
to the protection of Highway 12 in the Buxton Village area.

ADDRESSES: Cape Hatteras National Seashore, 1401 National Park Road, 
Manteo, North Carolina 27954.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dave Hallac, Park Superintendent at 
the address shown above, by phone at (252) 475-9000.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A Notice of Intent to prepare an EIS to 
consider a Special Use Permit to Dare County for Activities Related to 
the Protection of North Carolina Highway 12 was published in the 
Federal Register on December 29, 2014 (79 FR 78106, Pages 78106-78107). 
The NPS then engaged in a scoping process which included public 
meetings and consultation with federal agencies, and the initial 
development of a range of management alternatives with preliminary 
environmental impact assessment. Preliminary analysis of the 
alternatives shows there is no potential for significant impacts to 
park resources and values and no concerns or issues were expressed 
during the public scoping process that would have the potential for 
highly controversial

impacts. For these reasons, the NPS determined the proposal would not 
constitute a major federal action requiring an EIS. The EA to consider 
a Special Use Permit to Dare County for Activities Related to the 
Protection of North Carolina Highway 12 is expected to be distributed 
for public comment summer 2015. The public comment period for the EA 
and the dates, times, and locations of public meetings will be 
announced through the NPS Planning, Environment, and Public Comment 
(PEPC) Web site http://parkplanning.nps.gov/caha the Cape Hatteras 
National Seashore Web site, and in local media outlets.
    The responsible official is the Regional Director, NPS Southeast 
Region, 100 Alabama Street SW., 1924 Building, Atlanta, Georgia 30303.

    Dated: June 1, 2015.

Acting Regional Director, Southeast Region.
