The National Park Service (NPR) announces the availability of the ROD on the FGMP/EIS for Castillo de San Marcos National Monument, Florida. On June 11, 2007, the Regional Director, NPS, Southeast Region, approved the ROD for the project. As soon as practicable, the NPS will begin to implement the FGMP/EIS, described as the Preferred Alternative contained in the FGMP/EIS issued on May 4, 2007. The approved plan will enhance opportunities for visitors to interact with and appreciate the national monument's resources while providing for the preservation and protection of the park's resources when implemented. The approved alternative will enhance the visitor experience by removing some modern intrusions from the Castillo and from the exterior landscapes. The visitor center authorized by Public Law 108-480, pending availability and approval of capital and operational funding, would be constructed off-site and convenient to the park and St. Augustine's Spanish Quarter. The authority for publishing this notice is 42 U.S.C. 4332(2)(C).
