A 30-day no-action period means that no federal decision on the proposed action shall be made or recorded until at least 30 days after publication of a Notice of Availability by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the Federal Register that the Final EIS has been filed with the EPA. The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) also requires that this decision be stated in a public ROD signed after the 30-day no-action period. Until the National Park Service (NPS) issues its ROD, no action concerning the proposal shall be taken which would have an adverse environmental impact or limit the choice of reasonable alternatives. This does not preclude preliminary planning or design work which is needed to support an application for permits or assistance.
