BILLING CODE 4160-01-S DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration Fiscal Year

(FY)2008 Funding Opportunity AGENCY: Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, HHS. ACTION: Notice of intent to award a Single Source Grant to the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM). SUMMARY: This notice is to inform the public that the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) intends to award approximately $500,000 (total costs) per year for up to three years to the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM). This is not a formal request for applications. Assistance will be provided only to the American Society of Addiction Medicine

(ASAM)based on the receipt of a satisfactory application that is approved by an independent review group. *Funding Opportunity Title:* TI-08-014. *Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance

(CFDA)Number:* 93.243. *Authority:* Section 509 of the Public Health Service Act, as amended. *Justification:* Only the American Society of Addiction Medicine

(ASAM)is eligible to apply. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is seeking to award a single source grant to the American Society of Addiction Medicine

(ASAM)to establish a national mentoring network offering support (clinical updates, evidence-based outcomes and training) free of charge to physicians and other medical professionals in the appropriate use of methadone for the treatment of chronic pain and opioid addiction. SAMHSA is responsible for certifying over 1,000 Opioid Treatment Programs

(OTPs)that use methadone and buprenorphine in the treatment of opioid addiction. This initiative will help address the nation's rise in methadone-associated deaths that has been spurred by misuse/abuse and fatal drug interactions involving methadone. According to the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), methadone poisoning deaths nationwide increased 390% from 786 deaths in 1999 to 3,849 deaths in 2004, and on going data indicate that the number of deaths in many states continued to increase in 2005 and 2006. Thus, prompt and direct implementation of this cooperative agreement is necessary to help ensure public health and safety. To address this healthcare crisis in a timely manner, eligibility for the cooperative agreement is limited to ASAM to establish a national mentoring network and to carry out the dissemination of information and education as it relates to methadone use in the treatment of opioid addiction and chronic pain. ASAM presently provides a parallel service under a SAMHSA cooperative agreement to operate a Physician Clinical Support System

(PCSS)to assist physicians with issues related to office-based treatment of opioid dependence with buprenorphine. As a result, ASAM is in the unique position to have the infrastructure and capacity in place to expeditiously meet the specific and unique needs outlined in this announcement. In addition, ASAM has demonstrated in the past (through the PCSS project) the capability to implement and achieve the goals of this program.

MORAN AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: In accordance with 33 U.S.C. 1605(c) the Coast Guard is providing notice that a Certificate of Alternative Compliance was issued for the Tug Laura K. Moran. DATES: The letter in accordance with 33 U.S.C. 1605(c) was effective on February 22, 2008. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions on this notice, call Mr. Dennis Spain, Prevention Branch, U.S. Coast Guard, telephone 757-398-6558. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Tug Laura K. Moran will be used for ship assist, escorting, and fire fighting operations. Full compliance with 72 COLREGS will hinder the Tug's ability to maneuver within close proximity of the side of vessels during maneuvering operations. Due to the design of the Tug and the required height of the side running lights it would be difficult and impractical to build supporting structure that would put the lights within 3.2′ from the side of Tug, as required by Annex I paragraph 3(b) of the 72 COLREGS. Compliance with the rule will cause the lights to be in a location which will be highly susceptible to damage from ships hulls or towlines. Locating the side running lights 11′2″ from the vessel side on top of the pilot house roof will provide a shelter location for the lights and allow maneuvering within close proximity to ships hulls. A Certificate of Alternative Compliance, as allowed under Title 33, Code of Federal Regulation, Parts 81 and 89, has been issued for the towing vessel LAURA K. MORAN, O.N. 1208410. The Certificate of Alternative Compliance allows for the placement of the running lights to deviate from requirements set forth in Annex I paragraph 3(b) of 72 COLREGS. *Viewing of the Certificate:* To view the Certificate of Alternative Compliance, go to *http://www.regulations.gov* at any time.

FR-5100-FA-09] Announcement of Funding Awards for the Housing Counseling Program for Fiscal Year 2007 AGENCY: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Housing—Federal Housing Commissioner, HUD. ACTION: Announcement of funding awards. SUMMARY: In accordance with section 102(a)(4)(C) of the Department of Housing and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 (42 U.S.C. 3545), this announcement notifies the public of funding decisions made by the Department in a Super Notice of Funding Availability

(NOFA)competition for funding of HUD-approved counseling agencies to provide counseling services. Appendix A contains the names and addresses of the agencies competitively selected for funding and the award amounts. Intermediaries are listed first and subsequent awards are grouped by their respective HUD Homeownership Center.

(202)708-0317. Hearing- or speech-impaired individuals may access this number by calling the Federal Information Relay Service on 800-877-8339. (This is a toll free number.) SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Housing Counseling Program is authorized by section 106 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968 (12 U.S.C. 1701x). HUD enters into agreement with qualified public or private nonprofit organizations to provide housing counseling services to low- and moderate-income individuals and families nationwide. The services include providing information and assistance to the homeless, renters, first-time homebuyers, homeowners, and senior citizens in areas such as pre-purchase counseling, financial management, property maintenance and other forms of housing assistance to help individuals and families improve their housing conditions and meet the responsibilities of tenancy and homeownership. HUD funding of approved housing counseling agencies is not guaranteed, and when funds are awarded, a HUD grant does not cover all expenses incurred by an agency to deliver housing counseling services. Counseling agencies must actively seek additional funds from other sources such as city, county, state and federal agencies and from private entities to ensure that they have sufficient operating funds. The availability of Housing Counseling grants depends upon appropriations and the outcome of the award competition. The 2007 grantees announced in Appendix A of this Notice were selected for funding through a competition announced in a NOFA, published in the **Federal Register** on March 13, 2007 (Vol. 72, No. 48, page 11524), and corresponding Supplementary Information and Technical Corrections Notice, published in the **Federal Register** on May 11, 2007 (Vol. 72, No. 91, page 27031), for the Housing Counseling Program. Applications were scored and selected for funding on the basis of selection criteria contained in the NOFA. HUD awarded $41,062,461 for comprehensive housing counseling and $3,000,000 in supplemental funding for reverse mortgage counseling. Specifically, $24,054,720 was awarded to nineteen intermediaries, $2,276,480 was awarded to seventeen State Housing Finance Agencies (SHFAs) and $14,731,126 was awarded to 352 Local Housing Counseling Agencies (LHCAs). Additionally, $399,974 was awarded to the American Association of Retired Persons

(AARP)Foundation to provide housing counseling training to counselors providing Home Equity Conversion Mortgage

(HECM)counseling and $2,600,026 was awarded to Neighbor Works America for comprehensive counseling training counselors participating in HUD's housing counseling program. Additionally, HUD awarded a noncompetitive grant in the amount of $16,475 to Jefferson Community Action Program (Louisiana). The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance

(CFDA)number for the Housing Counseling Program is 14.169. The Housing Counseling Training Program CFDA number is 14.316. Dated: March 5, 2008. Brian D. Montgomery, Assistant Secretary for Housing—Federal Housing Commissioner. Intermediary Organizations

E8-6098 Filed 3-25-08; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4210-67-P DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Fish and Wildlife Service [FWS-R8-ES-2008-N0042; 80221-1112-0000-F2] Tehachapi Uplands Multi-species Habitat Conservation Plan AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior. ACTION: Notice of intent. SUMMARY: Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), we, the Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), advise the public of our intent to gather information necessary to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement

(EIS)on the Tehachapi Uplands Multi-species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP). Tejon Ranch is preparing the MSHCP to apply for a 50-year incidental take permit under section 10(a)(1)(B) of the Federal Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended, (Act). The permit is needed to authorize the incidental take of threatened and endangered species that could occur as a result of activities covered by the plan. The Service provides this notice to

(1)describe the proposed action and possible alternatives;

(2)advise other Federal and State agencies, affected Tribes, and the public of our intent to prepare an EIS;

(3)announce the initiation of a public scoping period; and

(4)obtain suggestions and information on the scope of issues to be included in the EIS. A similar Notice of Intent was published on June 25, 2004 (69 FR 35663) when this project was called the Tejon Condor Habitat Conservation Plan. Because the project has been broadened to include additional species, this second Notice of Intent is being published to gather additional information. DATES: Written comments should be received on or before April 25, 2008. ADDRESSES: Written comments submitted to Mary Grim, Section 10 Program Coordinator, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 2800 Cottage Way, W-2605, Sacramento, CA 95825. Comments may also be sent by e-mail to: *tu_hcp_eis@fws.gov* . Comments previously received during the initial public scoping period will also be considered. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mary Grim, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, at 916-414-6464. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Background Section 9 of the Act and Federal regulations prohibit the “take” of wildlife species listed as endangered or threatened (16 U.S.C. 1538). The Act defines the term “take” as: to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect listed species, or to attempt to engage in such conduct (16 U.S.C. 1532). Harm includes significant habitat modification or degradation that actually kills or injures listed wildlife by significantly impairing essential behavioral patterns, including breeding, feeding, and sheltering [50 CFR 17.3(c)]. Pursuant to section 10(a)(1)(B) of the Act, the Service may issue permits to authorize “incidental take” of listed species. “Incidental Take” is defined by the Act as take that is incidental to, and not the purpose of, carrying out an otherwise lawful activity. Regulations governing permits for threatened species and endangered species, respectively, are at 50 CFR 17.32 and 50 CFR 17.22. All species included on an incidental take permit would receive assurances under the Service's “No Surprises” regulation [50 CFR 17.22(b)(5) and 17.32(b)(5)]. Species proposed for coverage in the HCP are species that are currently listed as federally threatened or endangered or have the potential to become listed during the life of this MSHCP and have some likelihood to occur within the project area. Should any of the unlisted covered wildlife species become listed under the Act during the term of the permit, take authorization for those species would become effective upon listing. Six plant species and 28 animal species are known to occur within the area and would be covered by the MSHCP. Species may be added to or deleted from the list of proposed covered species during the course of the development of the MSHCP based on further analysis, new information, agency consultation, and public comment. Currently, the MSHCP would include the following federally listed animal species: California condor ( *Gymnogyps californianus* ), least Bell's vireo ( *Vireo bellii pusillus* ), southwestern willow flycatcher ( *Empidonax traillii extimus* ), Valley elderberry longhorn beetle ( *Democerus californicus dimorphus* ), and Western yellow-billed cuckoo ( *Coccyzus americanus occidentalis* ). The MSHCP would also include the following State listed and unlisted species: Tehachapi slender salamander ( *Batrachoseps stebbinsi* ), bald eagle ( *Haliaeetus leucocephalus* ), American peregrine falcon ( *Falco peregrines anatum* ), little willow flycatcher ( *Empidonax traillii brewsteri* ), golden eagle ( *Aquila chrysaetos* ), white-tailed kite ( *Elanus leucorux* ), ringtail ( *Bassariscus astutus* ), tricolored blackbird ( *Agelaius tricolor* ), California spotted owl ( *Strix occidentalis occidentalis* ), Tehachapi pocket mouse ( *Perognathus alticolus inexpectatus* ), burrowing owl ( *Athene cunicularia* ), yellow-blotched salamander ( *Ensatina eschscholtzi croceater* ), western spadefoot ( *Spea hammondii* ), purple martin ( *Progne subis* ), northern goshawk ( *Accipiter gentalis* ), coast horned lizard (frontale and blainvilli populations) ( *Phrynosoma coronatum* ), Cooper's hawk ( *Accipiter cooperii* ), yellow-breasted chat ( *Icteria virens* ), prairie falcon ( *Falco mexicanus* ), northern harrier ( *Circus cyaneus* ), long-eared owl ( *Asio otus* ), two-striped garter snake ( *Thamnophis hammondii* ), round-leaved filaree ( *Erodium macrophyllum* ), Fort Tejon woolly sunflower ( *Eriophyllum lanatum* var. *hallii* ), Kusche's sandwort ( *Amenaria macradenia* var. *kuschei* ), Tehachapi buckwheat ( *Eriogonum callistum* ), American badger ( *Taxidea taxus* ), striped adobe lily ( *Fritillaria striata* ), and Tejon poppy ( *Eschscholzia lemmonii* ssp. *Kernensis* ). Activities proposed to be covered by the MSHCP include limited private development; livestock grazing and range management; film production; maintenance and construction of underground utilities; recreation with the exception of hunting; existing commercial and residential improvements; farming and irrigation systems; repair, maintenance, and use of roads; and existing mineral extraction facilities. The MSHCP will propose a conservation strategy to minimize and mitigate to the maximum extent possible any impacts that would occur to covered species as the result of the covered activities. Environmental Impact Statement The EIS will consider the proposed action (i.e., the issuance of a section 10(a)1(B) permit under the Act), no action (no section 10 permit), and a reasonable range of alternatives. A detailed description of the proposed action and alternatives will be included in the EIS. The EIS will also identify potentially significant impacts on biological resources, land use, air quality, water resources, transportation, and other environmental resource issues that could occur directly or indirectly with implementation of the proposed action and alternatives. Different strategies for avoiding, minimizing, and mitigating the impacts of incidental take may also be considered. Environmental review of the EIS will be conducted in accordance with the requirements of NEPA (42 U.S.C. 4321 *et seq.* ), its implementing regulations (40 CFR parts 1500-1508), other applicable regulations, and Service procedures for compliance with those regulations. This notice is being furnished in accordance with 40 CFR Section 1501.7 and 1508.22 to obtain suggestions and information from other agencies and the public on the scope of issues and alternatives to be addressed in the EIS. The primary purpose of the scoping process is to identify important issues raised by the public related to the proposed action. Written comments from interested parties are invited to ensure that the full range of issues related to the permit application is identified. Comments will only be accepted in written form. All comments received, including names and addresses, will become part of the official administrative record and may be made available to the public. Before including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment—including your personal identifying information—may be made publicly available at any time. While you may ask us in your comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.

ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: We, the Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), publish this notice to list programs or portions of programs that are eligible for inclusion in Fiscal Year 2008 funding agreements with self-governance tribes, and to list programmatic targets under section 405(c)(4) of the Tribal Self-Governance Act. DATES: The programs and targets we list in this notice expire on September 30, 2008. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Native American Liaison, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 4401 N. Fairfax Drive, MS 330, Arlington, VA 22203; telephone, 703-358-2550; fax 703-358-1780 or Assistant Director for External Affairs, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 1849 C Street, NW., Washington, DC 20240, telephone 202-208-6541, fax 202-501-6589. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background Title II of the Indian Self-Determination Act Amendments of 1994 (Pub. L. 103-413, the “Tribal Self-Governance Act” or the “Act”) instituted a permanent self-governance program at the Department of the Interior (DOI). Under the self-governance program certain programs, services, functions, and activities, or portions thereof, in DOI bureaus other than the Bureau of Indian Affairs

(BIA)are eligible to be planned, conducted, consolidated, and administered by a self-governance tribal government. Under section 405(c) of the Act, the Secretary of the Interior (Secretary) is required to publish annually:

(1)A list of non-BIA programs, services, functions, and activities, or portions thereof, that are eligible for inclusion in agreements negotiated under the self-governance program; and

(2)programmatic targets for each non-BIA bureau. Under the Act, two categories of non-BIA programs are eligible for self-governance annual funding agreements (AFAs):

(1)Under section 403(b)(2) of the Act, any non-BIA program, service, function or activity that is administered by DOI that is “otherwise available to Indian tribes or Indians” can be administered by a tribal government through a self-governance AFA. DOI interprets this provision to authorize the inclusion of programs eligible for self-determination contracts under Title I of the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (Pub. L. 93-638, as amended). Section 403(b)(2) also specifies that “nothing in this subsection may be construed to provide any tribe with a preference with respect to the opportunity of the tribe to administer programs, services, functions and activities, or portions thereof, unless such preference is otherwise provided by law.”

(2)Under section 403(c) of the Act, the Secretary may include other programs, services, functions, and activities or portions thereof that are of “special geographic, historical, or cultural significance” to a self-governance tribe. Under section 403(k) of the Act, AFAs cannot include programs, services, functions, or activities that are inherently Federal or where the statute establishing the existing program does not authorize the type of participation sought by the tribe. However, a tribe (or tribes) need not be identified in the authorizing statutes in order for a program or element to be included in a self-governance AFA. While general legal and policy guidance regarding what constitutes an inherently Federal function exists, we will determine whether a specific function is inherently Federal on a case-by-case basis considering the totality of circumstances. II. Existing AFAs Between Self-Governance Tribes and the Service 1. *Council of Athabascan Tribal Governments.* The Council of Athabascan Governments

(CATG)has successfully implemented annual funding agreements

(AFAs)since 2004 to perform activities in the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge in Interior Alaska. The activities subject to the AFA have included marking boundaries for public easements, assisting with environmental education and outreach, monitoring wildlife harvest, surveying moose populations, and maintaining Federal property in and around Fort Yukon. Negotiations have resumed between the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes

(CSKT)of the Flathead Nation regarding an Annual Funding Agreement for management at the National Bison Range Complex in Montana. III. Eligible non-BIA Programs of the Service Below is a listing of the types of non-BIA programs, or portions thereof, that may be eligible for self-governance funding agreements because they are either “otherwise available to Indians” under Title I, or may have “special geographic, historical, or cultural significance” to a participating tribe. The list represents the most current information on programs potentially available to tribes under a self-governance funding agreement. This list is not all-inclusive, but is representative of the types of Service programs that may be eligible for tribal participation through an AFA. 1. Subsistence Programs Within the State of Alaska Evaluate and analyze data for annual subsistence regulatory cycles and other data trends related to subsistence harvest needs. 2. Technical Assistance, Restoration and Conservation Conduct planning and implementation of population surveys, habitat surveys, restoration of sport fish, capture of depredating migratory birds, and habitat restoration activities. 3. Endangered Species Programs Conduct activities associated with the conservation and recovery of threatened or endangered species protected under the Endangered Species Act

(ESA)and candidate species under the ESA may be eligible for self-governance agreements. These activities may include, but are not limited to, cooperative conservation programs, development of recovery plans and implementation of recovery actions for threatened and endangered species, and implementation of status surveys for high priority candidate species. 4. Education Programs Provide services in interpretation, outdoor classroom instruction, visitor center operations, and volunteer coordination both on and off National Wildlife Refuge lands in a variety of communities. Also assisting with environmental education and outreach efforts in local villages. 5. Environmental Contaminants Program Conduct activities associated with identifying and removing toxic chemicals, which help prevent harm to fish, wildlife and their habitats. The activities required for environmental contaminant management may include, but are not limited to, analysis of pollution data, removal of underground storage tanks, specific cleanup activities, and field data gathering efforts. 6. Wetland and Habitat Conservation and Restoration Provide services for construction, planning, and habitat monitoring and activities associated with conservation and restoration of wetland habitat. 7. Fish Hatchery Operations Conduct activities to recover aquatic species listed under the Endangered Species Act, restore native aquatic populations, and provide fish to benefit Tribes and National Wildlife Refuges. Activities that may be eligible for a self-governance agreement may include, but are not limited to: egg taking, rearing and feeding of fish, disease treatment, tagging, and clerical or facility maintenance at a fish hatchery. 8. National Wildlife Refuge Operations and Maintenance Conduct activities to assist the National Wildlife Refuge System, a national network of lands and waters for conservation, management and restoration of fish, wildlife and plant resources and their habitats within the United States. Activities that may be eligible for a self-governance agreement may include, but are not limited to: construction, farming, concessions, maintenance, biological program efforts, habitat management, fire management, and implementation of comprehensive conservation planning. We will also consider for inclusion in AFAs other programs or activities not listed above, but which, upon request of a self-governance tribe, we determine to be eligible under either sections 403(b)(2) or 403(c) of the Act. Tribes with an interest in such potential agreements are encouraged to begin such discussions. Our mission is to conserve, protect, and enhance fish, wildlife, and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people. Our primary responsibilities are for migratory birds, endangered species, freshwater and anadromous fisheries, and certain marine mammals. We also have a continuing cooperative relationship with a number of Indian tribes throughout the National Wildlife Refuge System and the Service's fish hatcheries. Any self-governance tribe may contact a national wildlife refuge or national fish hatchery directly concerning participation in our programs under the Act. IV. Locations of Refuges and Hatcheries With Close Proximity to Self-Governance Tribes We developed the list below based on the proximity of an identified self-governance tribe to Service facilities that have components that may be suitable for contracting through a self-governance agreement. 1. All Alaska National Wildlife Refuges, Alaska. 2. Alchesay National Fish Hatchery, Arizona. 3. Humboldt Bay National Wildlife Refuge, Idaho. 4. Kootenai National Wildlife Refuge, Idaho. 5. Agassiz National Wildlife Refuge, Minnesota. 6. Mille Lacs National Wildlife Refuge, Minnesota. 7. Rice Lake National Wildlife Refuge, Minnesota. 8. National Bison Range, Montana. 9. Ninepipe National Wildlife Refuge, Montana. 10. Pablo National Wildlife Refuge, Montana. 11. Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge, Oklahoma. 12. Tishomingo National Wildlife Refuge, Oklahoma. 13. Bandon Marsh National Wildlife Refuge, Washington. 14. Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge, Washington. 15. Makah National Fish Hatchery, Washington. 16. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge, Washington. 17. Quinalt National Fish Hatchery, Washington. 18. San Juan Islands National Wildlife Refuge, Washington. V. Programmatic Targets During Fiscal Year 2008, upon request of a self-governance tribe, FWS will negotiate funding agreements for our eligible programs beyond those already negotiated.

Respondents also incur a $10 service charge that results in modifying or canceling and replacing a previously issued grazing fee billing. The form to be filed for that action is 4130-1. Based on these assumptions, the total annual cost to respondents would be: Forms 4130-1, 4130-1a, 4130-1b filed as part of transfer application 1050 responses × $10 = $10,500 Form 4130-1 filed independent of a transfer application (3000−1050 =1950 responses) 1950 responses × $10 = $19,500 Total: $30,000 The BLM grazing regulations were modified in 2006 to increase the service charge for transfers to $145 and for canceling or replacing a previously issued grazing fee bill to $50, among other things. However, the 2006 BLM rulemaking that changed these regulations were enjoined “in all respects” by the Idaho Federal District Court (for reasons other than the changes to the service charge schedule) in June, 2007. A final judgment by the Court affirming this injunction was entered on February 28, 2008, and it is now subject to appeal. *Abstract:* The Taylor Grazing Act of 1934 (43 U.S.C. 315, 315a through 315r) and the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. *et seq.* ) authorize the Bureau of Land Management

(BLM)to administer the livestock grazing program consistent with land use plans, multiple use objectives, sustained yield, environmental values, economic considerations, and other factors. The BLM must maintain accurate records on:

(1)Permittee and lessee qualifications for a grazing permit or lease;

(2)Base property used in conjunction with public lands; and

(3)The actual use made by livestock authorized to graze on the public lands. The BLM also collects non-form information on grazing management from permittees and lessees. Form 4130-1, Grazing Schedule The BLM uses the information required on this form to adjudicate conflicting requests for grazing use, determine the legal qualifications of applicants, issue permits, and document transfers. Form 4130-1a, Grazing Application—Preference Summary The BLM uses the information required on this form to verify what the BLM needs to effectuate a grazing preference transfer. Form 4130-1b, Grazing Application (Supplemental Information) The BLM uses the information required on this form to certify an applicant's qualifications for a grazing permit or lease and to provide other information necessary for the administration of the grazing permit or lease. Form 4130-3a, Automated Grazing Application The BLM uses the information required on this form to approve changes of grazing use within the terms and conditions of permits or leases. Form 4130-4, Exchange of Use Grazing Agreement The BLM uses the information required on this form to exchange grazing of livestock on private lands during certain periods. Form 4130-5, Actual Grazing Use Report The BLM uses the information required on this form to determine whether we need to adjust the amount of grazing use or if other management actions are needed. This form enables the BLM to calculate billings and to monitor and evaluate livestock grazing use on the public lands. *Comments:* We again specifically request your comments on the following:

(1)Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper functioning of the BLM, including whether the information will have practical utility;

(2)The accuracy of the BLM's estimate of the burden of collecting the information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used;

(3)The quality, utility and clarity of the information we collect; and

(4)How to minimize the burden of collecting the information on those who are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated electronic, mechanical, or other forms of information technology. Comments that you submit in response to this notice are a matter of public record. Before including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment, including your personal identifying information, may be made publicly available at any time. While you can ask OMB in your comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that it will be done. Dated: March 20, 2008.

ACTION: Notice of availability. SUMMARY: In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act

(NEPA)and the Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA), the Bureau of Land Management

(BLM)announces the availability of the Record of Decision (ROD), which documents the BLM's decision to designate and manage four

(4)Areas of Critical Environmental Concern

(ACEC)within the Roan Plateau planning area. The Roan Plateau is located within Garfield and Rio Blanco Counties and within the jurisdiction of the Glenwood Springs Field Office in Colorado. The ROD announced today pertains only to approximately 21,034 acres of proposed ACEC and does not alter final decisions for the remaining approximately 52,568 acres within the Roan Plateau planning area, which were previously addressed in the Proposed Resource Management Plan Amendment/Final Environmental Impact Statement (PRMPA/FEIS) and Record of Decision announced in the **Federal Register** , Volume 72, Number 111, on Monday, June 11, 2007. ADDRESSES: Copies of both RODs for the Roan Plateau planning area and the RMPA/FEIS are available upon request from the Glenwood Springs Field Office, Bureau of Land Management, 50629 Highways 6 and 24, Glenwood Springs, CO 81601, or via the Internet at *http://www.blm.gov/rmp/co/roanplateau.* FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jamie Connell, Field Manager, Bureau of Land Management Glenwood Springs Field Office, 50629 Highways 6 & 24, Glenwood Springs, CO 81601, or by telephone at

(970)947-2800. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Roan Plateau RMPA was developed with broad public participation through a collaborative planning process. The ROD announced today addresses the management of approximately 21,034 acres of public land in the planning area proposed for designation as ACEC in the PRMPA/FEIS. Final RMPA decisions for the remaining portions of the planning area (approximately 52,568 acres) were addressed in a ROD announced in the **Federal Register** , Volume 72, Number 111, on Monday, June 11, 2007. The ROD announced today includes management actions to address the values of concern identified within the 21,034 acres of proposed ACEC. The ACECs designated in this ROD were previously analyzed in the Draft RMPA/Draft EIS (DRMPA/DEIS) and the PRMPA/FEIS. No inconsistencies with State or local plans, policies, or programs were identified during the Governor's consistency review of the PRMPA/FEIS. The Secretary of the Interior offered the State of Colorado an additional 120-day period in which to further understand the final RMPA decisions before approving this ROD. That period has elapsed, and the BLM has considered the State's recommendations in preparing the ROD for the ACEC portions of the Roan Plateau planning area. The BLM accepted and considered input from the public on ACEC values and potential designation during scoping for the RMPA/EIS, during public comment on alternative development, during the comment period on the DRMPA/DEIS, and during a 60-day comment period on ACECs announced in the **Federal Register** , Volume 72, Number 111, on Monday, June 11, 2007. The alternatives analyzed in the DRMPA/DEIS varied in the number and size of potential ACECs. The BLM received over 500 separate comments addressing ACEC management during this 60-day public comment period. Comment summaries and BLM's responses to comments are available at the Glenwood Springs Field Office or on the Web at *http://www.blm.gov/rmp/co/roanplateau/index.htm.* Input from the public and cooperating agencies was considered in developing the PRMPA/FEIS. Approval of the ROD constitutes formal designation of the proposed ACECs per 43 CFR 1610.7-2(b). The four designated ACECs and their associated relevant and important resource values are as follows:

(1)Anvil Points (4,955 acres)—visual resources/aesthetics, wildlife habitat, botanical/ecological values;

(2)Magpie Gulch (4,698 acres)—visual resources/aesthetics, wildlife habitat, botanical/ecological values;

(3)East Fork Parachute Creek (6,571 acres)—visual resources/aesthetics, wildlife habitat, fisheries habitat, botanical-ecological values; and

(4)Trapper/Northwater Creek (4,810 acres)—wildlife habitat, fisheries habitat, botanical/ecological values. Under this ROD, surface disturbing activities will be limited to protect the relevant and important values within the designated ACECs. Such activities include oil and gas development, rights-of-way designation, and road construction. Limitations include no ground disturbance or no surface occupancy stipulations for activities within the ACECs, as well as site-specific relocation or controlled surface use stipulations. Further, conditions of approval or permitting level requirements may be applied to each drilling permit. Detailed discussions of the authorized protective measures for the designated ACECs are contained in the ROD and the PRMPA/FEIS. Anna Marie Burden, Acting State Director. [FR Doc.

Dated: March 20, 2008. Linda G. Poole, Certifying Officer, Division Of Trade Adjustment Assistance . [FR Doc. E8-6112 Filed 3-25-08; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4510-FN-P DEPARTMENT OF LABOR Employment and Training Administration [TA-W-62,414] Consistent Textile Industries, Dallas, NC; Notice of Negative Determination on Reconsideration On November 29, 2007, the Department issued an Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration for the workers and former workers of Consistent Textiles Industries, Dallas, North Carolina (the subject firm). The Department's Notice of affirmative determination was published in the **Federal Register** on December 11, 2007 (72 FR 70344). The initial determination was based on the Department's findings that the subject firm did not separate or threaten to separate a significant number or proportion of workers (at least three workers with a workforce of fewer than 50 workers, or five percent of the workers with a workforce of 50 or more, or 50 workers) as required by section 222 of the Trade Act of 1974. The company-filed petition for Trade Adjustment Assistance

(TAA)and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance

(ATAA)alleges that the worker group works at a firm that has increased imports of like or directly competitive articles, has shifted production of the article to a foreign country, and has customers that have increased imports from another country. In the request for reconsideration, a company official states that three workers were separated from the subject firm. In order to apply for TAA, petitioners must meet the group eligibility requirements for directly-impacted workers under section 222(a) the Trade Act of 1974, as amended. The requirements can be satisfied in either one of two ways. Under Section (a)(2)(A), the following must be satisfied: A. A significant number or proportion of the workers in such workers' firm, or an appropriate subdivision of the firm, have become totally or partially separated, or are threatened to become totally or partially separated; and B. The sales or production, or both, of such firm or subdivision have decreased absolutely; and C. Increased imports of articles like or directly competitive with articles produced by such firm or subdivision have contributed importantly to such workers' separation or threat of separation and to the decline in sales or production of such firm or subdivision; Under Section (a)(2)(B), the following must be satisfied: A. A significant number or proportion of the workers in such workers' firm, or an appropriate subdivision of the firm, have become totally or partially separated, or are threatened to become totally or partially separated; and B. There has been a shift in production by such workers' firm or subdivision to a foreign country of articles like or directly competitive with articles which are produced by such firm or subdivision; and C. One of the following must be satisfied: 1. The country to which the workers' firm has shifted production of the articles is a party to a free trade agreement with the United States; or 2. The country to which the workers' firm has shifted production of the articles is a beneficiary country under the Andean Trade Preference Act, African Growth and Opportunity Act, or the Caribbean Basin Economic Recovery Act; or 3. There has been or is likely to be an increase in imports of articles that are like or directly competitive with articles which are or were produced by such firm or subdivision. During the reconsideration investigation, the Department confirmed that the subject firm separated three of its four workers. Accordingly, the Department determines that section (a)(2)(A)(A) and section (a)(2)(B)(A) were met. A review of previously-submitted information confirmed that subject firm sales decreased in 2006 from 2005 levels, and decreased during January through October 2007 as compared to the corresponding period the prior year. Accordingly, the Department determines that section (a)(2)(A)(B) was met. In order to determine that the subject workers meet the TAA group eligibility requirements, the Department must also find that either section (a)(2)(A)(C) was met or section (a)(2)(B)(B) and section (a)(2)(B)(C) were met. The analysis of Section (a)(2)(A)(C) begins with identifying the “articles produced by such firm or subdivision,” continues with a finding of “increased imports of articles like or directly competitive with articles produced by such firm,” and concludes with the determination that increased imports “have contributed importantly” to the workers' separation or threat of separation and to the decline in subject firm sales or production. The company-filed petition identified no article produced at the subject firm [Question—What (if any) articles are produced at subject firm? Answer—Just Sales, Question—If none are produced, what do workers do? Answer—Sales]. When the Department contacted the subject firm's major declining customer during the reconsideration investigation, the customer stated that it had no records of purchases of machine parts from the subject firm. Rather, all of the subject firm orders are for repair work on the customer's machines. Further, a company official stated that the machine parts produced were “used for replacement or repair” of textile machines. The Department has consistently determined that repair work is a service and that items created incidental to provision of a service are not articles for purposes of the Trade Act. As such, the Department determines that no article was produced by the subject firm, and that the subject workers cannot be considered import impacted or affected by a shift of production abroad, and cannot be certified as eligible to apply for worker adjustment assistance under the Trade Act. Even if the subject firm does produce an article, for purposes of the Trade Act, the petitioning workers would not meet the group eligibility requirements for directly-impacted workers under section 222(a) the Trade Act of 1974, as amended. The workers allege that they produce machine parts for textile machines. As such, a certification would be based on either a shift of production of machine parts to a foreign country or a determination that increased imports of articles like or directly competitive with the machine parts produced by the subject firm contributed importantly to workers' separation and declines in subject firm sales or production. According to additional information obtained during the reconsideration investigation, the subject firm ceased machine part production in November 2007, did not shift production of machine parts to a foreign country, and did not increase its imports of machine parts like or directly competitive with those produced by workers at the subject firm. Because there was no shift of production, as required by Section (a)(2)(B)(B), the petitioning workers can be certified eligible to apply for TAA only if the Department finds that there were “increased imports of articles like or directly competitive with articles produced by such firm,” and that increased imports “have contributed importantly” to the workers” separations and to the decline in subject firm sales or production. Since the subject firm did not increase its imports of machine parts or articles like or directly competitive with those produced by workers at the subject firm, the Department conducted a survey to determine whether the subject firm's major declining customers had increased their imports of machine parts or articles like or directly competitive with those produced by workers at the subject firm. None of the customers reported increased imports of articles like or directly competitive with the machine parts produced by workers at the subject firm. Absent a finding of increased imports, the Department cannot determine that increased imports contributed importantly to the workers' separations. Accordingly, the Department determines that section (a)(2)(A)(C) was not met. Although the request for reconsideration did not allege that the subject workers were adversely affected as secondary workers (workers of a firm that supply component parts to a TAA-certified company or finished or assembled for a TAA-certified company), the Department expanded the reconsideration investigation to determine whether they would be eligible to apply for TAA on this basis. Such a certification, under section 223(b)(2), must be based in the certification of a primary firm. The reconsideration investigation revealed that although several of the subject firm's customers are TAA-certified, the article produced by the subject workers (machine parts) are not a component part of the article produced by the workers eligible to apply for TAA (textiles). As such, the Department determines that section 223(b)(2) has not been met. In order for the Department to issue a certification of eligibility to apply for Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA), the subject worker group must be certified eligible to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA). Since the subject workers are denied eligibility to apply for TAA, the workers cannot be certified eligible for ATAA. Conclusion After careful review of the new and addition information obtained during the reconsideration investigation, I affirm the original notice of negative determination of eligibility to apply for worker adjustment assistance for workers and former workers of Consistent Textiles Industries, Dallas, North Carolina. Signed at Washington, DC, this 18th day of March 2008. Elliott S. Kushner, Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance. [FR Doc. E8-6115 Filed 3-25-08; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4510-FN-P DEPARTMENT OF LABOR Employment and Training Administration [TA-W-62,655] Warp Processing Co., Inc., Exeter, PA; Notice of Negative Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration By application dated March 14, 2008, several workers requested administrative reconsideration of the Department's negative determination regarding the eligibility for workers and former workers of Warp Processing Co., Inc., Exeter, Pennsylvania (the subject firm) to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance

(TAA)and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA). The negative determination was issued on February 19, 2008. The Department's Notice of negative determination was published in the **Federal Register** on March 7, 2008 (73 FR 12466). The subject workers are engaged in the activity of warping (placing onto beams) synthetic fibers made of nylon and polyester for the textile industry. The TAA/ATAA petition was denied based on the Department's findings that the subject firm did not import warped synthetic fibers or shift production to a foreign country, and that the subject firm did not supply a component part to a manufacturing company with an existing primary TAA certification. The workers stated in the request for reconsideration that the subject firm supplies “customers with warped synthetic fibers and then our customers weave it into fabric and material and produce the finished product” and “is secondarily affected.” The workers further stated that “we know that the other countries are not importing them on beams but they are importing fabric and other finished product.” The workers also alleged that Brawer Brothers is not the subject firm's only customer and that the subject firm's largest customer is Highland Industries. Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(c), administrative reconsideration may be granted under the following circumstances:

(1)If it appears on the basis of facts not previously considered that the determination complained of was erroneous;

(2)If it appears that the determination complained of was based on a mistake in the determination of facts not previously considered; or

(3)If in the opinion of the Certifying Officer, a mis-interpretation of facts or of the law justified reconsideration of the decision. After careful review of the request for reconsideration, the support documentation, and previously submitted materials, the Department determines that there is no new information that supports a finding that section 222 of the Trade Act of 1974 was satisfied and that no mistake or misinterpretation of the facts or of the law with regards to the subject workers' eligibility to apply for TAA. The initial investigation revealed that, during the relevant period, the subject firm did not conduct business with Highland Industries and that the subject firm's only customer was Brawer Brothers. In addition to investigating whether the subject firm increased its imports of warped synthetic fabric, the Department had conducted a survey of not only Brawer Brothers but also its customers regarding their imports of articles like or directly competitive with the warped synthetic fabric produced by the subject workers. The surveys revealed no increased imports. The three TAA-certified companies referenced in the request for reconsideration are Native Textiles, Inc. (TA-W-58,587 and TA-W-58,587A; certification expired February 15, 2008); Cortina Fabrics (TA-W-52,973; certification expired November 3, 2005); and Guilford Mills, Inc. (TA-W-39,921; certification expired May 15, 2004). Because the certifications for Cortina Fabrics and Guilford Mills, Inc. expired prior to the relevant period, facts which were the basis for the certification applicable to workers covered by that petition cannot be a basis for certification for workers covered by this petition. Although the TAA certification for Native Textiles did not expire prior to the relevant period, it is irrelevant because the subject firm did not conduct business with that company during the relevant period and because warped synthetic fiber is not a component part of the warp knit synthetic tricot fabric produced by Native Textiles. Conclusion After review of the application and investigative findings, I conclude that there has been no error or misinterpretation of the law or of the facts which would justify reconsideration of the Department of Labor's prior decision. Accordingly, the application is denied. Signed at Washington, DC, this 18th day of March 2008. Elliott S. Kushner, Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance. [FR Doc.

The petitioning group of workers is covered by an earlier petition (TA-W-62,988) filed on March 11, 2008 that is the subject of an ongoing investigation for which a determination has not yet been issued.

Eligible Applicants Nonprofit organizations, including community-based and faith-based organizations, that are not an agency of a State or local government are eligible to apply. Additionally, State or local government supported institutions of higher education are eligible to apply in accordance with 29 CFR part 95. Eligible organizations can apply independently for funding or in partnership with other eligible organizations, but in such a case, a lead organization must be identified. Sub-grants are not authorized. Subcontracts, if any, must be awarded in accordance with 29 CFR 95.40-48, including OMB circulars requiring free and open competition for procurement transactions. A 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization, as described in 26 U.S.C. 501(c)(4), that engages in lobbying activities will not be eligible for the receipt of federal funds constituting an award, grant or loan. See 1 U.S.C. 1611.

Cost Sharing or Matching Applicants are not required to contribute non-federal resources. 3. Other Eligibility Requirements Legal Rules Pertaining to Inherently Religious Activities by Organizations that Receive Federal Financial Assistance. The U. S. Government is generally prohibited from providing “direct” financial assistance for inherently religious activities. 1 1 In this context, the term direct financial assistance means financial assistance that is provided directly by a government entity or an intermediate organization, as opposed to financial assistance that an organization receives as the result of the genuine and independent private choice of a beneficiary. In other contexts, the term “direct” financial assistance may be used to refer to financial assistance that an organization receives directly from the Federal government (also know as “discretionary” assistance), as opposed to assistance that it receives from a State or Local government (also know as “indirect” or “block” grant assistance). The term “direct” has the former meaning throughout this solicitation for grant applications (SGA). The Grantee may be a faith-based organization or work with and partner with religious institutions; however, “direct” federal assistance provided under grants with the U. S. Department of Labor may not be used for religious instruction, worship, prayer, proselytizing or other inherently religious practices. 29 CFR part 2, subpart D governs the treatment in Department of Labor government programs of religious organizations and religious activities; the Grantee and sub-contractors are expected to be aware of and observe the regulations in this subpart.

The panel recommendations to the Assistant Secretary are advisory in nature. The Assistant Secretary may establish a minimally acceptable rating range for the purpose of selecting qualified applicants. The Assistant Secretary will make a final selection determination based on what is most advantageous to the government, considering factors such as panel findings, geographic presence of the applicants, Agency priorities, the best value to the government, cost, and other factors. The Assistant Secretary's determination for award under this solicitation for grant applications

(SGA)is final. 3. Anticipated Announcement and Award Dates Announcement of these awards is expected to occur no later than September 30, 2008. The grant agreements will be awarded by no later than September 2008. VI. Award Administration Information 1. Award Process Organizations selected as grant recipients will be notified by a representative of the Assistant Secretary, usually from an OSHA Regional Office. An applicant whose proposal is not selected will be notified in writing. Notice that an organization has been selected as a grant recipient does not constitute approval of the grant application as submitted. Before the actual grant award, OSHA will enter into negotiations concerning such items as program components, staffing and funding levels, and administrative systems. If the negotiations do not result in an acceptable submittal, the Assistant Secretary reserves the right to terminate the negotiation and decline to fund the proposal. Note: Except as specifically provided, OSHA's acceptance of a proposal and an award of federal funds to sponsor any program(s) does not provide a waiver of any grant requirement or procedures. For example, if an application identifies a specific sub-contractor to provide services, the USDOL OSHA award does not provide the justification or basis to sole-source the procurement, i.e., to avoid competition. 2.
