    This document is scheduled to be published in the Federal Register on 06/19/2012 and available online at http://federalregister.gov/a/2012-13886, and on FDsys.gov DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Fish and Wildlife Service 50 CFR Part 17 [Docket No. FWS–R8–ES–2010–0070] [4500030114] RIN 1018–AX10 Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Revised Designation of Critical Habitat for the Pacific Coast Population of the Western Snowy Plover AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior. ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), designate revised critical habitat for the Pacific Coast distinct population segment (DPS) (Pacific Coast WSP) of the western snowy plover (Charadrius nivosus nivosus, formerly C. alexandrinus nivosus) under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). In 2 total, approximately 24,527 acres (9,926 hectares) of critical habitat for the Pacific Coast WSP in Washington, Oregon, and California, fall within the boundaries of the critical habitat designation. This revised final designation constitutes an increase of approximately 12,377 ac (5,009 ha) from the 2005 designation of critical habitat for the Pacific Coast WSP. A taxonomic name change has occurred and been accepted for the snowy plover. Throughout the remainder of this document, we will use the currently recognized name for the subspecies, Charadrius nivosus nivosus, to which the listed entity (Pacific Coast WSP) belongs for references to the Pacific Coast WSP. DATES: This rule becomes effective on [INSERT DATE 30 DAYS AFTER DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER]. ADDRESSES: This final rule, final economic analysis, and maps of critical habitat will be available on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov at Docket No.

Trails and greenways provide the facilities for these activities. Our surveys of Californian’s recreational use patterns over the years have shown that our variety of trails, from narrow back-country trails to spacious paved multi-use facilities, provide experiences that attract more users than any other recreational facility in California. Th e increasing population and desire for trails are increasing pressures on the agencies charged with their planning, maintenance and management. As leaders in the planning and management of all types of trail systems, California State Parks is committed to assisting the state’s recreation providers by complying with its legislative mandate of recording the progress of the California Recreational Trails Plan. During the preparation of this progress report, input was received through surveys, two California Recreational Trails Committee public meetings and a session at the 2011 California Trails and Greenways Conference. Preparation of this progress Above: Director Ruth Coleman report included extensive research into the current status of the 27 California Trail Corridors, determining which of these corridors need administrative, funding or planning assistance. Research and public input regarding the Plan’s twelve Goals and their associated Action Guidelines have identifi ed both encouraging progress and areas where more attention is needed.

Language of Materials: Collection materials are in English. Abstract: Collection comprises duplicate and original records of the Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS), dated between circa 1790 and 2011, with most records dating between 1933 and 1965. The bulk of the collection consists of duplicate HABS documentation for historic buildings and places in California and the National Park Service's Western Region, although the collection also includes fragmentary records for non-Western states, Panama, and Mexico. Buildings of historical merit, both “antique” (pre-1860) and newer, are recorded. Copies of official HABS documentation include photographic prints, negatives, photographic pages, inventory work sheets, photograph-data book reports, measured drawings, and other materials, prepared and submitted by the program’s surveyors. These materials are supplemented by administrative files, correspondence, survey notes, sketches, field notebooks, essays, ephemera, newspaper clippings, and other published materials.
