streetcar line and would not provide
transit connections to the Fort Mason
Center.
Alternative 2 (agency-preferred)
would extend the existing F–Line from
Fisherman’s Wharf to the Fort Mason
Center. Included are new rail track and
associated new platforms and
designated stops; retrofitting of the
historic State Belt Railroad tunnel; and
a turnaround loop. The track extension
would include a street-running segment
along Beach Street, a transition zone
between the street-running segment and
the Fort Mason Tunnel segment. Two
‘‘turnaround segment’’ options for the
terminus—North Loop (Fort Mason
parking lot) and South Loop (Great
Meadow)—were analyzed during a
Value Analysis (VA) workshop held in
August of 2010. The VA team focused
on: (1) Identifying a ‘‘preferred’’
alternative for the streetcar extension
turnaround; (2) identifying
opportunities to improve value for the
project; and (3) confirming sustainable
project goals for the NPS. The VA team
rated the North Loop turnaround option
higher than three variations of the South
Loop turnaround option. Other specific
project elements include constructing
streetcar track for approximately 0.85
miles, construction of 8–9-station
platforms, upgrades to the existing Fort
Mason Tunnel, and installation of
signals, crossings, wires and poles.
Comments: This notice serves to
formally open the public review and
comment phase for the Draft EIS. The
public and interested organizations are

environmental effects and appropriate
mitigation measures that would reduce
potential impacts. To afford an
opportunity to obtain information, a
public open house will be hosted on
April 20, 2011 from 7–9 p.m. in the
Golden Gate Room, Building A, Fort
Mason (for directions or information
about public transit, please consult the

collect different types of recreation
information. Before submitting the
information collection request—OMB
No. 1006–0028—to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
renewal, we are soliciting comments on
specific aspects of the information
collection.
DATES: Comments on this notice must be
received by May 23, 2011.
ADDRESSES: Send all comments
concerning this notice to Bureau of
Reclamation, Office of Policy and
Administration, Attention: Jerome
Jackson (84–53000), P.O. Box 25007,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For

proposed collection of information
forms, contact Jerome Jackson at 303–
445–2712.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), this notice announces that we
are requesting approval for the
collection of data from recreational
users of our lands and waterbodies.
To meet our needs for the collection
of visitor use data, we will be requesting
that OMB reauthorize a two-part
request.
The first part of the request provides
us with a set of 11 pre-approved
questionnaires to be administered as
approved by OMB. The second part of
the request consists of OMB and the
Bureau of Reclamation agreeing upon a
process whereby we custom design a
survey instrument to fit a specific
situation or area. The custom designed
survey would be created by extracting
questions from the approved
questionnaires as applicable to the area
and issue being evaluated. Only
questions included in the pre-approved
questionnaires will be used. We will
then submit the new survey form to
OMB for expedited approval.
Title: Recreation Visitor Use Surveys.
Abstract: The Bureau of Reclamation
is responsible for recreation
development at all of its reservoirs.
Presently, there are 289 designated
recreation areas on our lands within the
17 Western States. We must be able to
respond to emerging trends, changes in
the demographic profile of users,
changing values, needs, wants, desires,
and conflicts between user groups.
Statistically valid and up-to-date data
derived from users is essential to
developing and providing recreation
programs relevant to today’s visitor.
Respondents: Respondents to the
surveys will be members of the public
engaged in recreational activities on our

lands. Several surveys target people
engaged in various activities such as
boating on a specific lake or camping at
a developed campground.
Visitors will primarily consist of local
residents, those from large metropolitan

areas in the vicinity of the lake/
