Rescheduled Second Public Scoping Meeting for Environmental 
Planning for Use of Kenilworth Park, Washington, DC

AGENCY:  National Park Service, Interior.

ACTION:  Rescheduled second public scoping meeting by the National park 
Service (NPS) pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) 
and NPS Policy related to planning for the use of Kenilworth Park.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY:  The meeting originally scheduled for January 22, 2000, had to 
be postponed for reasons out of the control of NPS. On February 5, 
2000, NPS is holding the rescheduled second public scoping meeting in 
furtherance of its NEPA responsibilities and NPS Policy, in order to 
elicit additional public input concerning the future use of Kenilwork 
Park in light of the NPS-directed clean-up and stabilization activities 
in the park.
    Following a November 30, 1999 public scoping meeting, NPS has been 
preparing a Development Plan/Environmental Assessment (EA) for future 
uses of this park. At the February 5, 2000 meeting, NPS will discuss 
alternative conceptual schemes, along with any additional ideas for the 
future uses of the park. NPS will also inform the public of the current 
NPS activities at the park. When this EA is completed, it will be 
available for public review prior to the NPS decision on this EA 
pursuant to NEPA.

DATE:  The meeting will take place on Saturday, February 5, 2000 from 
10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

ADDRESSES:  The meeting will be held at Zion Baptist Church of Eastland 
Gardens, located at 1234 Kenilworth Avenue, NE, Washington, DC.

public information officer at (202) 690-5185.

    Dated: January 28, 2000.
