    National Park Service, United States Department of the Interior. The 
    intent is to utilize trailblazers either black or white or bearing a 
    distinctive colored design insignia (figure 1) to mark segments of the

    SUMMARY: This notice is to advise that the National Park Service will 
    mark the sites, facilities and routes affiliated with the NJCHTR 
    insignia through the coastal area of New Jersey from Perth Amboy, south 
    to Cape May and then north and west along the Delaware Bay and River to 
    Deepwater. This usage is consistent with Pub. L. 100-515, October 20, 
    1988 that established the NJCHTR. The trailblazer insignia will be used 
    on planning documents, brochures, exhibits, road signs and similar 
    items. Implementation will establish official use of the specific 
    trailblazer logo design (figure 1). Notice is given that under section 
    701 of Title 18 of the United States Code, whoever manufactures, sells, 
    or possesses any badge, identification card, or other insignia, of the 
    design prescribed by the head of any department or agency of the United 
    States for use by any officer or employee thereof, or any colorable 
    imitation thereof, or photograph, print, or impression in the likeness 
    of any such badge, identification card or other insignia or any 
    colorable imitation thereof, except as authorized under regulation made 
    pursuant to law shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned not more 
    than six months, or both.
    
    DATES: Action will commence upon publication of this notice.
    
    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Uniform marking of the NJCHTR with an 
    appropriate and distinctive symbol to guide the public is required by 
    Public Law 100-515, Section 5. Notice is given to prevent proliferation 
    of the distinctive insignia (figure 1) and to assure against its use 
    for other than the purposes of the New Jersey Coastal Heritage Trail 
    Route including commemorative, educational, public informational, and 
    fundraising.
        Trail markers bearing the trailblazer logo will be erected at 
    appropriate points to direct the traveling public to sites, and other 
    facilities officially associated with the NJCHTR. Approved written 
    agreements with other governmental agencies or private organizations 
    will be made for erection and maintenance of signs bearing the logo on 
    non-federal land.
