p.m. and on September 14, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The focus of these meetings will be to 
inform the public as to the progress made to date on the development of 
alternatives for the General Management Plan/ Environmental Impact 
Statement. At the televised ``town meeting'' the topic to be considered 
will be the future of Independence Mall, as part of Independence 
National Historic Park. An 800 number will be available for viewers to 
call in questions and comments to be addressed on the air. The program 
will be rebroadcast on tape on September 11 from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
    The two public workshops will cover the National Park Service's 
proposed alternative concepts for the future of the park. The workshops 
will present alternative concepts that have been generated to date. 
These alternatives are based on information that has been gathered as 
part of the initial data gathering, and scoping phases of the General 
Management Plan effort that began in the fall of 1993.
