PRESIDIO TRUST


Procedures for Implementing the National Environmental Policy Act

AGENCY: The Presidio Trust.

ACTION: Interim policy statement and notice of availability.

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

SUMMARY: This notice announces the Presidio Trust's adoption of interim procedures and
guidelines for implementing the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA).
    The Presidio Trust assumed administrative jurisdiction of approximately 80% of the Presidio
of San Francisco by transfer from the National Park Service on July 1, 1998. The National Park
Service has adopted and ordinarily follows certain procedures and guidelines in fulfilling its
obligations under NEPA, including the current versions of "Standard Operating Procedure 601''
and "NPS-12: National Environmental Policy Act Guidelines.'' In consultation with the Council 
on Environmental Quality, the Presidio Trust has adopted these National Park Service
procedures and guidelines as its own interim procedures and guidelines for implementing NEPA,
to the extent that the National Park Service procedures and guidelines do not conflict with the 
Presidio Trust Act or regulations of the Presidio Trust. These interim procedures and guidelines
will remain in effect until such time as the Presidio Trust adopts final procedures and guidelines
implementing NEPA.
    The Presidio Trust has adopted these interim procedures and guidelines pursuant to the
Presidio Trust Act (Pub. L. 104-333, 110 Stat. 4097 (16 U.S.C. 460bb note)), the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), and regulations of the Council on 
Environmental Quality (40 CFR 1507.3).
    Copies of these procedures and guidelines, as well as the Presidio Trust's resolution adopting
them, are available upon request to the Presidio Trust.

Trust, 34 Graham Street, P.O. Box 29052, San Francisco, California 94129-0052, Telephone:

    Dated: August 27, 1998.

General Counsel.
