Final Environmental Impact Statement[bs]General 
Management Plan, Lassen Volcanic National Park, Lassen, Plumas, Shasta 
and Tehama Counties, CA; Notice of Approval of Record of Decision

    Summary: Pursuant to section 102(2)(C) of the National 
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (Pub. L. 91-190, as amended) and the 
regulations promulgated by the Council on Environmental Quality (40 CFR 
Part 1505.2), the Department of the Interior, National Park Service has 
prepared and approved a Record of Decision for the Final Environmental 
Impact Statement/General Management Plan for Lassen Volcanic National 
Park. The no-action period was initiated November 9, 2001, with the 
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Federal Register (V66, N218, 
P56673) notification of the filing of the Final Environmental Impact 
Statement (FEIS).
    Decision: As soon as practical the National Park Service will begin 
to implement the General Management Plan described as the Proposed 
Action (Alternative C) contained in the FEIS, issued in August, 2001. 
This alternative was deemed to be the ``environmentally preferred'' 
alternative, and it was further determined that implementation of the 
selected actions will not constitute an impairment of park values or 
resources. This course of action and three additional alternatives were 
identified and analyzed in the Final and Draft Environmental Impact 
Statements (the latter was distributed in August 2000). The full range 
of foreseeable environmental consequences was assessed, and appropriate 
mitigation measures identified.
    Copies: Interested parties desiring to review the Record of 
Decision may obtain a copy by contacting the Superintendent, Lassen 
Volcanic National Park, P.O. Box 100, Mineral, California 96063-0100; 
or via telephone request at (530) 595-4444.

    Dated: February 25, 2002.

Regional Director, Pacific West Region.
