DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
National Park Service
Santa Rosa Island Development Concept Plan; Channel Islands
National Park; Availability of Draft Environmental Impact Statement
SUMMARY: Pursuant to Section 102(2)(C) of the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (Pub. L. 91-190 as amended), the National Park
Service, Department of the Interior, has prepared a draft environmental
impact statement (DEIS) assessing the potential impacts of the proposed
Development Concept Plan for Santa Rosa Island, Channel Islands
National Park, Santa Barbara County, California.
The draft plan proposes the development of infrastructure and
facilities to support maintenance and protection of resources and
historic structures, research and further study of both natural and
cultural resources, limited experimental restoration of natural
systems, and the provision of limited visitor use opportunities.
Maintenance and housing facilities would be provided in two locations.
One alternative is evaluated, that of no action, which would maintain
existing housing, provide minimal maintenance of facilities to provide
for basic health and safety of visitors and employees, and provide
essential resource protection with minimal research and planning for
restoration of natural systems.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Written comments on the draft Development
Concept Plan and DEIS will be accepted until May 31, 1994 and should be
sent to the Superintendent, Channel Islands National Park, 1901
Spinnaker Drive, Ventura, Ca. 93001. A public meeting on the plan will
be held April 27, 1994, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., at the park visitor
center located at the above address. National Park Service officials
