As a resident of XXXXXXX, I am asking that you please grant a 30 day extension on the DEIS proposed for Cape Hatteras National Seashore Recreational Area. This document is 810 pages long which took your agency many years to formulate and eventually write. The document became available on March 5, 2010 and only provided 60 days for people to comment on it. This is a very important document for the residents of Hatteras Island with far reaching implications for our future. We are not a community of lawyers and this is a hard read for me and my neighbors. In order to comment appropriately, we need more time.
A previous request for an extension was denied from your Atlanta office. Please understand that there were no workshops or interactions provided by the office of our local superintendent, Mike Murray. He traveled to 5 locations around the region to hear public comments only. I feel that given the importance and size of the DEIS, the Park Service needed to do more to educate the residents on the many subjects covered within this document. For these reason, I am personally requesting an extension.
