#  Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site, Cornish, NH: Environmental Assessment—Purple Loosestrife Management; Notice of Availability and Public Comment Period

In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (Pub. L. 91-190) the National Park Service (NPS) announces that the document “Environmental Assessment, Purple Loosestrife Management, Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site” will be available for public review and comment for thirty days from the date of its publication in the *Federal Register.*

The document presents four alternatives for managing the non-native, invasive plant, purple loosestrife ( *Lythrum salicaria* ) at the site. Ultimately, an alternative will be selected that will guide the park in the management of this invasive species.

During the thirty-day comment period, interested persons may review the document and provide written comments to the Superintendent, Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site, RR 3, Box 73, Cornish, NH 03745.

The NPS will distribute a summary of the Environmental Assessment to the site's mailing list, interested individuals and institutions. The NPS will then distribute a complete version of the document to federal, state, regional, and local agencies. Both versions will be available at local libraries and at the Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site.

Queries and requests for copies of the complete Environmental Assessment or of the summary document should be directed to the Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site at (603) 675-2175.
