TY - JOUR T1 - Effects of feeding frequency on metabolism of juvenile walleye AN - 745656392; 139881 AB - The effects of feeding frequency on oxygen consumption (OC) and ammonia excretion (AE) of walleye (Stizostedion vitreum) are described. Walleye were reared at a practical culture density in a single-pass system at 23.2 degrees C. Diurnal variation in metabolic rates were related to feeding, not to photoperiod. Minimum OC rates occurred 30 min before the first feeding of the day, which was the longest average time since the last feeding. Metabolic rates increased immediately after feeding. The maximum rates of OC were 36-49% higher than the minimum rates, and 14-22% higher than the 24-h mean rate. Maximum rates for AE were 137-409% higher than the minimum rates, and 39-87% higher than the mean rates. There was a highly significant difference in the mean metabolic rates related to feeding frequency. AE was directly proportional to OC. JF - Aquacultural engineering.

LIBS is based on a Nd:YAG laser operating at 50-100 mJ at lambda = 1.06 mu m. The beam is focused on the surface of the sample to produce a laser spark (plasma). The atomic emission lines are recorded using an optical multichannel analyzer (OMA) after specific gate delay times. Gating delay times of a few microseconds allow broadband emissions to decay before detecting heavy metal emission lines. This remote sampling technique has application in monitoring both land and ocean sites containing heavy metals. Research has been performed on the detection of As, Cd, Cr, Hg, Pb, and Zn. Results are reported on the detection levels of Cr in soil samples. In addition, computer software has been developed to automate the identification of atomic emission lines for mixed matrices of these heavy metals in background emissions from elements typically in soil. Future plans are to determine the minimum limits of detection for various heavy metals by a typical LIBS system based on a Nd:YAG laser and a fiber-optic collection system for the plasma emissions.

Furthermore, private businesses often require accurate water depth information for planning projects of various sorts. Examples of such businesses would include, but not be limited to, petroleum firms, shorefront planning and construction businesses, and dredging companies. The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has recently successfully field tested the Scanning Hydrographic Operational Airborne LIDAR Survey (SHOALS) system in Sarasota, FL. The SHOALS is a state of the art Airborne LIDAR Hydrographic (ALH) system to be used by the USACE (leasable to other US government agencies) for performing bathymetric surveying in support of maintaining the nations public waterways, flood control, and beach erosion and renourishment projects. A funded exploratory spin-off project that merges the SHOALS system and an imaging spectrometer as a proposed permanent dual sensor system, provides, over a survey area, both SHOALS depth information and hyperspectral imagery of the survey area.

Recently, RSD used ground-level reflectance measurements and hyperspectral imagery to evaluate the extent of toxic-induced stress on vegetation at the Savannah River Nuclear Site in Aiken, Georgia. This presentation describes the findings of a study involving hazardous materials leaching out of failed containment facilities at the Savannah River Site.

Errors in estimating chlorophyll can result when increasing winds create an increasingly whitecapped air-sea interface. The resulting errors in estimating chlorophyll concentration are shown for a range of windspeeds of 0-25 m/s and for a range of chlorophyll concentrations of 0-20 mg/m super(3). Model results are furnished for correcting remotely sensed chlorophyll for varying sea states provided that some estimate of surface wind fields is available.

S. Federal environmental programs. The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA or Superfund), and related regulations require public involvement in determining impacts, iden tifying threats and deciding on remedial environmental actions. Federal environmental planning is oriented towards allowing forums for airing pub lic concerns, without direct public control of decisions. The paper uses the sociology of risk literature to show how the actors and processes have been structured through law and regulation. Following Stallings's (1990) frame work of the social organization of risk discourse, this paper identifies the claims makers, stakeholders, and risk definers within the NEPA and CERCLA processes. The processes include definition soliciting, information dissemi nation, claims making and risk defining. The paper concludes by stressing the need for public involvement policy to be grounded theory and research.

In addition to peak discharge the simulated hydrograph shape and runoff volume were affected significantly by computational spatial discretization size and the magnitude of the effect was model-dependent. When the catchment parameters were constant the effect of computational spatial discretization size on model simulation accuracy was an order of magnitude greater than the effect of catchment surface condition variability.

These were obtained by modifying the equation for the tangential velocity proposed in 1930 by Rosenhead. Strong air-core vortices near a water intake were studied in a series of laboratory experiments. The equations were in agreement with experimental data and were applicable to vortex motion in general. An eddy-viscosity term was included in the equations for radial and axial vortex velocities. The application of the equations in determining the submergence required to avoid air-entraining vortices at intakes is considered.

The probability distributions of group length for field measurements and previous numerical simulations were nearly identical indicating linear combinations of spectral components could predict grouping in short-fetch, locally-generated seas at the study site. Sequences of wave height within groups showed no strong, physically justifiable trends and extreme waves showed no tendency to occur together in a group.

Magnitude frequency calculations of discharge data are presented and the determination of top-bank and mid-channel bar elevations considered. Cumulative sediment transport and the impact of a major flood event are discussed. Morphological expressions of dominant discharge and effective range of flows are considered and engineering applications are identified. Hydrographic data, long-profile records and stage discharge relationships from calibrated one-dimensional flow models indicated that the dominant discharge corresponded to bar full' discharge and the effective range of flows occurred between the stage that just topped the mid channel bars and that which significantly overtopped the banks. Historical trends in bar growth indicated bar-top elevations had generally risen during the past 30 years to dominant flow elevation. Mid channel bars represented the major contemporary morphological feature.

N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-12 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - ROUTE 87 FREEWAY PROJECT BETWEEN JULIAN STREET AND ROUTE 101 IN THE CITY OF SAN JOSE, SANTA CLARA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36398257; 4365 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of a 3.1-mile segment of State Route (SR) 87 between Julian Street and US 101 in the city of San Jose, Santa Clara County, California, is proposed. Known as the Guadalupe Parkway, the segment is currently a four-lane expressway with at- grade signalized intersections at Airport Parkway, West Hedding Street, Mission Street, and Taylor Street. Two alternatives, including a No Project Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action (the preferred alternative), the segment would be widened to six lanes. Existing at-grade intersections would be replaced with grade separation structures and/or interchanges, which would upgrade the expressway to freeway status. The existing SR 87 bridges over I-880 would be replaced, and the existing SR 87 bridge over Coleman Avenue would be widened, so as to accommodate the upgraded facility. Skyport Drive would extend to Airport Boulevard under one of the design options and a frontage/local circulation road along the east side of the freeway would be built to connect West Hedding Street with Market Street. An additional auxiliary lane on northbound US 101 between Route 87 and north of the Trimble/De La Cruz interchange would be built. North San Pedro Street, between West Taylor and West Hedding streets, would be widened and realigned in order to improve traffic circulation in the Civic Center area. Two of the proposed six lanes would be operated as high-occupancy-vehicle lanes during peak commuting hours. Interchange on-ramps would be designed to provide for ramp metering, including a bypass of metering lights for carpools and buses as well as sufficient room for metering enforcement by police. South of I-880, the freeway would be at-grade at Taylor Street and elevated over Hedding Street in order to minimize impacts on parklands and riparian areas, improve access to the Civic Center, and accommodate a future I-880 interchange. The estimated cost of construction is $143.6 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would complete the only missing freeway segment of the SR 87 corridor, which extends from US 101 on the north to SR 85 on the south. Existing congestion within the study segment would be relieved, and anticipated increases in traffic would be accommodated. Travelers moving between the large residential areas in southern San Jose and the commercial and industrial employment areas in northern Santa Clara County would be served more effectively. The redevelopment of downtown San Jose and expansion of the airport would be supported. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would result in the loss of riparian habitat and the displacement of 79 households and 378 parking spaces. Separation structures would impinge on visual aesthetics. The project would result in the loss of approximately 4.5 acres of ecologically valuable riparian habitat along the Guadalupe River, and stormwater runoff from the highway has the potential to degrade the river's water quality. Increased noise levels would adversely affect some areas.

AN - 36397898; 4377 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a restoration plan that would ensure the long-term conservation of the coastal wetlands of Louisiana is proposed. The Louisiana coastal plain contains 25 and 69 percent of the fresh and salt marshes, respectively, found on the gulf coast, and 15 and 40 percent, respectively of the ecotypes in the continental U.S.. It is currently suffering 80 percent of all coastal wetland losses. These losses have resulted from economic projects along the coast and the construction of levees and other flood control projects, which have prevented sediments from the Mississippi River from building and nourishing wetland areas. These conditions are compounded in many locales where channels dredged for navigation or energy exploration have allowed salt water to penetrate far inland. In other areas, urbanization, highways, and spoil banks from channel dredging have disrupted natural drainage. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed plan, several basic approaches to use natural processes in order to promote optimum benefits from the ecosystem would be provided. New wetlands would be built on a large scale through maximum use of the sediment resources of the Mississippi and Atchafalaya rivers, and on a smaller scale through use of dredged material and trapping of longshore sediment. Specifically, the plan would include the phased abandonment of the existing ""bird's foot'' delta in favor of a new delta in the shallow waters of an adjacent estuary, possibly Breton Sound; multiple diversions into Barataria Basin; the reactivation of old distributary channels; seasonal increases in flow down the Atchafalaya River; the rebuilding of barrier island chains; and the controlling of tidal flows. Fresh water would be added, salt water would be blocked, and dredged material banks would be breached in order to restore the hydrologic conditions of channels and other structures. Vulnerable marshes would be protected by repairing and strengthening the landforms on the barrier islands, shorelines, and distributary ridges. Protection would also be accomplished by control and management of particular stresses, such as herbivory. Overland flow and sinuous channel flow (the natural hydrologic process of the wetlands) would be promoted where possible, while active management of water levels would be undertaken where necessary. Appropriate mixes of these approaches would be prepared for the nine hydrologic basins that make up coastal Louisiana. Implementation of the plan would create or protect 211,400 acres of wetlands, and indirectly benefit a total of 431,900 acres at a cost in excess of $1.2 billion over the next twenty years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Through the implementation of the proposed plan, wetland losses would be reduced by nearly 70 percent over the next twenty years. Under the No Action Alternative, a wetlands loss roughly equivalent in area to the state of Rhode Island would result; these losses would involve substantial losses of fish and wildlife resources, recreational opportunities, tourism revenues, and indigenous culture. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Sediment diversion, hydrologic restoration, marsh creation with dredged materials, and other restorative activities could adversely affect oyster leases and some cultural resources, while reducing boat access in certain areas.

BONNER BRIDGE (BRIDGE NO. 11) OVER OREGON INLET, DARE COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA. AN - 36409289; 4368 AB - PURPOSE: The replacement of the Herbert C. Bonner Bridge on North Carolina 12 (NC 12) crossing the Oregon Inlet in Dare County, North Carolina, is proposed. The bridge was built across Oregon Inlet in 1962 and is approaching the end of its service life. It is part of NC 12 and provides the only highway connection between Hatteras Island and Brodie Island along North Carolina's Outer Banks. The replacement structure would serve the same function and be built in a corridor paralleling the existing bridge. Two alternatives are considered in this draft EIS, including a No Action Alternative, which would assume that the Bonner bridge would be demolished at and be replaced by a small-scale ferry service. The new structure would provide a 36-foot clear roadway with two 12-foot wide lanes and six feet of lateral clearance on each side. The length of the entire project would be approximately 3.2 miles, including approximately 2.5 miles of bridge structure. The bridge spans placed in the Inlet, for a distance of approximately 5,000 feet, would have a minimum horizontal navigation clearance of 200 feet and a vertical clearance of 65 to 75 feet. Under the proposed action, the bridge would connect with the existing alignment of NC 12 as soon as possible on both islands. The design, however, would accommodate the future relocation of NC 12 on the north end of Hatteras Island. The existing bridge would be demolished. In a related action, the Corps of Engineers would continue its regular dredging of the navigation channel through the inlet, use the sand behind the terminal groin on the north end of Hatteras Island to nourish beaches at locations where NC 12 is currently threatened by overwash, and build two jetties to stabilize the shoulders of the inlet and the shoreline. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The replacement of the existing bridge would increase safety for vehicular traffic and provide continued access to Hatteras Island for residents and tourists. Safety would be enhanced primarily by the widening of the shoulder widths by four feet, the reduction of the number of accidents on the bridge, and the facilitation of emergency evacuations. The design of the new bridge would take into account natural channel migration expected through the year 2050 and provide the flexibility to let the channel move. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: On both sides of the bridge, the project would be within the Cape Hatteras National Seashore, and within the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge on the Hatteras side. Approximately 33.3 acres of wetlands would be disturbed by construction; 6.8 acres would be permanently displaced. Some bird foraging and nesting habitat would also be disturbed.

AN - 15224924; 4379 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of flood control measures for the floodplain of the Rio Grande de Arecibo and its tributaries in Puerto Rico is proposed. The Rio Grande de Arecibo basin covers an area of approximately 487 square kilometers (188 square miles) drained by three major streams, namely, the Rio Grande de Arecibo, Rio Tanama, and Rio Santiago. Flooding affects numerous residential, commercial, public, and industrial properties in the Arecibo metropolitan area. Under the recommended flood control plan (plan A-2-F), a stone jetty, floodwalls, and earthen levees would be built at the western side of the Rio Grande de Arecibo floodplain, just east of the Rio Santiago, through the Arecibo delta, beginning at the river mouth and extending south and west to the cloverleaf intersection of Highways 10 and 22, then west to intersect and plug the Rio Santiago. Upper Rio Santiago flood flows would be diverted eastward into the Rio Arecibo through a new, 2,900-meter diversion channel. The Rio Santiago would be plugged under Highway 22, and the river bed upstream from this point would be regraded to drain into the diversion channel. The lower Rio Santiago channel would be improved along a 3,400-meter reach extending upstream from its mouth. A second levee would extend 1,160 meters northward from the Rio Tanama outlet into the Arecibo Valley to prevent overbank flooding from the Rio Tanama into the upper Santiago. Recreation features that would be provided in association with the project would include a bicycle/jogging trail, a picnic pavilion and benches on the cellular floodwall, and an additional boat ramp and parking area in the Rio Arecibo. The estimated first cost of the project, in June 1993 prices, is $18.6 million, and the benefit-cost ratio is estimated at 4.2. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Full flood protection would be provided to the metropolitan area against the 100-year frequency flood of the Rio Grande de Arecibo and the Rio Tanama and the 25-year frequency flood of the Rio Santiago. Riparian emergent wetland areas would be expanded. Annual benefits resulting from the project would be worth $7.2 million. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 26 acres of palustrine and estuarine wetlands would be adversely affected by structural measures, but this could be appropriately mitigated. The adversely affected wetlands would include 2 acres of riparian wetlands, 7.2 acres of estuarine emergent wetlands, and 16.6 acres of freshwater floodplains. A stone jetty would eliminate 0.3 acre of marine sandy bottom. Approximately 22 acres of active croplands characterized as prime farmland would be lost. Open water channel wetlands would be replaced in both brackish and freshwater zones. Water, sewer, and power lines as well as culverts, 3 commercial buildings, 5 bridges, and 26 residences would be displaced. The Rio Arecibo levee could adversely affect historic and archaeological sites along the east side of Highway 10 between the towns of Arecibo and the Highway 22 /Highway 10 intersection.

Preparation date: November 29, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - STAGE 2 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT/ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR THE LOS VAQUEROS PROJECT, CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36406554; 4376 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan to reduce saltwater intrusion into water supplied to customers of the Contra Costa Water District (CCWD) of Concord, California, is proposed. CCWD provides water to approximately 400,000 retail and wholesale customers throughout north-central and east Contra Costa County. The current water supply is subject to substantial variations in quality during seasonal periods of saltwater intrusion from San Francisco Bay into the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, CCWD's water source. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative, a new reservoir, to be called the Los Vaqueros reservoir, would be built within the Kellogg Creek watershed; a new supplemental intake at Old River No. 5 site would also be built. The reservoir would cover approximately 1,460 acres and have a storage capacity of 100,000 acre-feet (af), with a maximum allocation of 56,000 af of emergency storage, 30,000 af of water quality enhancement storage, 10,000 af of unused storage, and 4,000 af of evaporation storage. During critical periods when an insufficient amount of high-quality water was available directly from the delta, water from the reservoir would be released and blended with water from the delta to achieve CCWD's water quality goal. The reservoir would be filled between November 1 and June 30, when surplus water of adequate quality would normally be available in the delta. The dam for the reservoir would be an earthen embankment approximately 192 feet high, to be located on Kellogg Creek 7 miles south of Brentwood. Related construction projects would include a new supplemental intake and fish screen facility in the delta, 5 to 10 miles from the reservoir site, with a new electric transmission line to supply power and new pipelines to convey water from the new intake location to the reservoir; a transfer reservoir (approximately 10 af); a pumping plant for diverting the required flows from the delta to the reservoir or the Contra Costa Canal; and a 96-inch-diameter, 12-mile-long pipeline for delivering water to and from the pumping plant. The project would require the relocation of Vasco Road, an important regional roadway, as well as of an electric transmission line and other utility facilities. Overall development costs are estimated to be $28.5 million to $34.2 million; annual operating costs at project buildout are estimated to be $2.3 million to $2.7 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In addition to providing high-quality water during periods when the delta waters are high in salinity, the reservoir would provide storage for water that could be used during an emergency, such as a major levee failure or chemical spill in the delta waterway. In addition, numerous trails, picnic areas, and other recreational facilities would be constructed around the reservoir. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, some 12 acres of land classified as being prime, unique, or of statewide importance would be permanently altered; and some eight residences within the Kellogg Creek watershed would be relocated. Approximately 180 acres of valley oak woodland would be lost in the inundation area of the reservoir as well as 542 acres of annual grasslands and 737 acres of dryland farmed grasslands. The project would also adversely affect about three acres of willow cottonwood riparian woodland along creeks and other major drainages. Development of recreational facilities would significantly add to traffic congestion in the area. Scenic views would be adversely affected by the high visibility of the electric transmission line at the intake facility site and the creation of an unvegetated exposed ring around the reservoir when drawn down during critical periods.

Preparation date: November 18, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CANAL PARKWAY DEVELOPMENT STUDY, FROM MD 51 TO THE WILEY FORD BRIDGE, ALLEGANY COUNTY, MARYLAND. AN - 36398831; 4366 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of various roads is proposed for the Cumberland, Maryland, area in order to improve access from I-68 and downtown Cumberland to the South Cumberland area and the Cumberland Municipal Airport, located across the Potomac River in West Virginia. The existing two-lane Virginia Avenue underpass of the CSX Railroad is the only access route linking these two areas of Cumberland. The underpass currently experiences traffic congestion during peak periods; as a result, Virginia Avenue has an accident rate higher than similar facilities. In addition to the No-Build Alternative (Alternative 1), three build alternatives and two optional connections at the Ford Avenue crossing of the C&O Canal are considered in this draft EIS. Under Alternative 2, Virginia Avenue would be widened to four lanes from Fourth Street to Bowen Street. The CSX bridge could be replaced in order to improve the vertical clearance of the underpass. In addition, curbs and sidewalks would be added, and the existing roadway would be resurfaced. Under Alternative 3, a two-lane undivided highway would be built on a new location from MD 51 west of Virginia Avenue to the area of River Avenue and Ford Avenue. Ford Avenue would be improved to the Wiley Ford Bridge. Under Alternative 4 (Canal Parkway), a two-lane undivided highway would be built on a new location from MD 51 at Wineow Street to the area of River Avenue and Ford Avenue, and Ford Avenue would be improved to the Wiley Ford Bridge. The two optional connections (Options A and B) would include the removal of the existing low-arch bridge, which carries Ford Avenue over the C&O Canal, and the construction of a new full-clearance bridge over the canal and towpath. A raised profile along Ford Avenue would be needed to accommodate the new roadway and bridge. Under Option A, which could be built under Alternatives 1 and 2, Ford Avenue would be reconstructed as a two-lane undivided roadway from approximately 200 feet south of the C&O Canal Bridge to its intersection with River Avenue. Improvements would be made to the Clement Street intersection with Ford Avenue and new driveways would provide access to two commercial establishments on Ford Avenue. Under Option B, which could be built under Alternatives 3 and 4, Ford Avenue would be shifted slightly to the west and reconstructed as a new two-lane undivided roadway from approximately 200 feet south of the C&O Canal Bridge to its intersection with Clement Street. Also under consideration is a related action involving the re-watering of the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal from the existing Ford Avenue crossing to its terminus in downtown Cumberland and the reconstruction of the towpath. This area lies south of MD 51 and the CSX railroad tracks and is bounded on three sides by the Potomac River. Under this proposal, approximately two miles of C&O Canal would be rewatered, and the canal and towpath would be restored to their historic elevations. The project would require the excavation of the canal and the restructuring of a portion of the Corps of Engineers flood protection project that was completed in the 1950s. A retaining wall would be built along the shale embankment that currently supports the CSX Railroad tracks. The parklands alongside the Canal would be publicly accessible at the Terminus and South Park areas as well as from existing streets in South Cumberland. The estimated cost of the transportation improvements ranges from $3 million to $39 million; the estimated cost of the proposed park improvement ranges from $60 million to $80 million. Although these two actions are both evaluated in this draft EIS, they could be implemented independently of one another. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed transportation project, traffic operation and safety would be improved. The connection between downtown Cumberland and the municipal airport would also be improved, thereby aiding the local economy. Restoration of the Canal would increase tourist interest in the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements for transportation improvements would displace up to 29 residences and 11 businesses, and adversely affect up to three historic districts and some archaeological sites; some additional displacements would occur as the result of future park improvements. Up to 1.5 acres of the Potomac River floodplain and 1.3 acres of wetlands would be adversely affected by the transportation improvements, while the park improvements would affect 80 acres of floodplain and 12 acres of wetlands.

Jahns distinguished lecture in engineering geology AN - 50253418; 1994-017175 AB - Gutenberg-Richter b-values are dysfunctional for site-specific applications in the engineering of critical structures. Their dysfunction results from differences in the mechanism of faulting and nonuniformity in the occurrences of earthquakes over time and space. The mechanisms of faulting include stick slip, various categories of controlled slip, and a multitude of thermodynamic slip processes which range from rock melting to stress releases by hydrothermal and other fluids at or near lithostatic pressures. These processes cause accelerated fault movements and chaotic earthquake occurrences, while asperities and barriers along faults contribute to temporary clustering effects that develop characteristic earthquakes but do not give them continuity through time. B-line projections must incorporate these complexities, but they can do so only when they are inclusive for large, seismically active areas such as southern California, the Aleutian arc, etc. Within the relatively small earthquake source areas that determine damaging earthquake ground motions at individual engineering sites, b-values become dysfunctional at M> or =5.0. Because b-values are the determinants of probabilistic seismic hazard analyses, there are severe restraints on the usefulness of probabilistic methods to assign earthquake ground motions for the engineering of critical structures. The latter include major dams, nuclear power plants, liquefied petroleum gas installations, repositories for dangerous wastes, military command centers, sensitive industrial and defense installations, fire stations, schools, and hospitals.

AN - 36398482; 4283 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a water-oriented, planned residential community on approximately 1,610 acres of bay lands southeast of Novato, Marin County, California, is proposed. The proposed project, Bel Marin Keys Unit 5 (BMK5), would constitute the final development phase of the existing Bel Marin Keys community and would more than double the number of residences in the community. The proposed BMK5 site is bounded by the existing BMK community and Novato Creek to the north; San Pablo Bay to the east; and Hamilton Field to the south. The site, diked off from the bay many years ago, is predominantly flat and at an elevation approximately four feet below mean sea level. According to the BMK5 master plan and rezoning application, Bel Marin Keys Development Associates would build 1,190 residential units; a 150,000-square-foot neighborhood commercial center; an 18-hole golf course; a 50,000-square-foot social center; a 200-berth marina; a habitat enhancement program encompassing 669 acres; and related roadway, public transit, and infrastructure facilities. The entire development would be situated around a 463-acre expansion of the existing lagoon presently serving the BMK 3 and 4 community. A new lock would be built that would connect the expanded lagoon to Novato Creek. The excavated material from the lagoon would be used as fill to support the construction of the residences and other structures. The residences would be built on 174 acres, representing roughly 11 percent of the total area of the site. The project sponsor would create 669 acres of shorebird and migratory waterfowl habitat in the form of wetlands, managed seasonal marsh, and mud flats. The project sponsor would also participate in the financing of the water treatment plant expansion necessary to accommodate the new BMK residents. Construction would occur in three phases over a period of approximately nine years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Although the proposed project would be inconsistent with some local planning documents, it would be consistent with the countywide plan to encourage the construction of low- and moderate-income housing in the area. The project would also meet many of the long-standing needs of the BMK community by enhancing recreational opportunities, providing a neighborhood commercial center, and providing a long-term dredge material disposal site. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would result in the further urbanization of a natural area and the further loss of natural resources associated with the Bayfront Conservation Zone. Some 1,200 acres of oat hay agricultural land would be lost; this would account for approximately 50 percent of the total oat hay tonnage, 35 percent of the total harvested acres of oat hay, and 35 percent of the total value of oat hay production in Marin County. The filling of approximately 273 acres of diked lands for urban use and the flooding of 463 acres for lagoons would permanently remove 736 acres from potential future marsh restoration and eliminate the habitat values associated with brackish seasonal wetlands. The conversion of diked bay lands to residential uses would result in a regional reduction of seasonally important feeding, resting, and storm refuge areas for migratory waterfowl, raptors, and shorebirds. Dredging, lagoon flushing, human intrusion, and vessel discharges would degrade biological resources within the Novato Creek corridor and the tidal salt marsh within the project boundaries. The traffic levels at selected intersections would increase significantly.

AN - 36405726; 4261 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of an interchange and frontage roads on California Route 17 at Lexington Reservoir, located south of Los Gatos in Santa Clara County, California, is proposed. The interchange and frontage roads would be built at or in the vicinity of one or two of the following existing roadways: Alma Bridge Road/Montevina Road, Black Road, Bear Creek Road, and Old Santa Cruz Highway. Seven build alternatives and a No Action Alternative were considered in the draft EIS. None of the build alternatives would widen or increase the capacity of Route 17 itself. All of the build alternatives would provide improved access between Route 17 and both the local side roads and the Alma Fire Station, eliminating the need to make left turns across two lanes of traffic. All of the alternatives would include the placement of a concrete barrier in the median of Route 17 for safety purposes. The preferred alternative examined in this final EIS is a slightly modified version of Alternative 1-D as described in the draft EIS. The preferred alternative would build an interchange on Route 17 adjacent to Lexington Reservoir at Bear Creek Road. It would include a frontage road along the west side of Route 17 connecting Black and Montevina roads to the interchange at Bear Creek Road. A frontage road along the east side of Route 17 would connect Old Santa Cruz Highway and the Alma Fire Station to the interchange at Bear Creek Road. POSITIVE IMPACTS: By eliminating difficult and time-consuming left turns from Route 17, the preferred alternative would improve traffic on Route 17 and provide safer access to the local roads and the Alma Fire Station. Pedestrian and cyclist crossings of Route 17 would be greatly enhanced by the construction of over- or undercrossings with sidewalks. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would require the placement of some amount of fill below the high-water line of Lexington Reservoir, reducing the reservoir's storage capacity by 28 acre-feet. The project could degrade the existing water quality of Lexington Reservoir in both the short-term (i.e., construction period) and long-term. Because of the steep rises and drops on both sides of Route 17, all construction would involve excavation and placement of embankment fill in areas subject to landslides, rock falls, erosion, and earthquakes. Rights-of-way requirements would displace 1 utility line, 1 residence, 1 home-based business, 2.7 acres of oak woodland habitat, 0.3 acres of riparian habitat, and 2.7 acres of open water wetland within the Lexington Reservoir County Park.

AN - 36410414; 4262 AB - PURPOSE: The widening of a 15-mile segment of Colorado State Highway (SH) 82 from a point one mile east of Basalt to the Buttermilk Ski Area, located two miles west of Aspen in Pitkin County, Colorado, is proposed. Current traffic volume along SH 82 far exceeds the capacity of the two-lane roadway, and the roadway from Basalt to Aspen has experienced higher than average accident rates for the past twenty years. Seven alignment alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alignment Alternative 2A and Modal Alternative IV), the highway would be widened from two to four lanes, with two of the lanes reserved for bus and high occupancy vehicle (HOV) use during peak hours for that portion of the highway connecting Gerbazdale and Buttermilk. The highway would generally follow the alignment of existing SH 82, but would cut into some slopes in order to improve curve geometry; in addition, the section of SH 82 near the airport would be realigned in order to improve airport safety under a plan developed by Pitkin County and the Federal Aviation Administration. Various roadway cross sections would be used for the four-lane widening to best fit the terrain, address capacity and safety needs, and respond to environmental and public concerns. Additional transportation improvements would include intercept lots (multimodal transfer stations) near the airport, Buttermilk Ski Area, and Bush Creek Road in order to allow passengers to shift from transportation mode to another; park and ride facilities at Glenwood Springs (two), Carbondale, El Jebel, and Basalt; and bike and pedestrian trail improvements. The possibility of extending these highway improvements an additional two miles from Buttermilk to Aspen will be considered in a separate EIS, although this segment was included in the various alternatives considered in the draft EIS. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Safety and capacity of SH 82 would be enhanced, and traffic congestion on the facility would be relieved. The facility would provide infrastructural support for the economy of Pitkin County. Provisions for realignment in the vicinity of the airport would provide needed space for expansion of the airport. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would displace one residence that is directly in the path of the proposed new alignment and up to 30 residences along the existing alignment in Snowmass Canyon. Rights-of-way development would also encroach on a historic ranch, portions of a trail, and wetlands. Construction activities would result in temporary sedimentation increases in the Roaring Fork River. Wildlife habitat would be displaced, and the potential for animal/vehicle collisions would be increased. The visual quality of the Roaring Fork Valley would be degraded.

Preparation date: October 8, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NASHUA-HUDSON CIRCUMFERENTIAL HIGHWAY, HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, NEW HAMPSHIRE. AN - 36405823; 4271 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of the Nashua-Hudson Circumferential Highway in the city of Nashua, and in the towns of Hudson, Litchfield, and Merrimack, in Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, is proposed. The study area is located approximately 35 miles south of Concord, New Hampshire, and 35 miles north of Boston, Massachusetts. The proposed highway would serve east-west traffic and relieve existing traffic congestion in the central business districts of Nashua and Hudson by providing alternative crossings of the Merrimack River. The highway would also link all major arterial roadways in the region. Key issues addressed in relation to the construction include the effects on wetlands and water resources; wildlife; socioeconomics, including displacement, cumulative development, and compatibility with community and regional plans; noise and air quality; and historic and archaeological resources. Seven full build alternatives and a No-Build Alternative are considered in this final EIS. Under the build alternatives, the proposed circumferential highway would be a limited-access toll expressway with a 400-foot-wide right-of-way in most areas, which would allow for two 12-foot lanes in each direction and a varying median. Grade-separated interchanges would be provided at six locations. Other roads would be either grade-separated, relocated, or terminated at the new facility. All of the build alternatives share a southern terminus at the planned exit 2 interchange of the F. E. Everett Turnpike at the existing Sagamore Bridge, which crosses the Merrimack River. All of these alternatives would follow a semicircular route to the east of Hudson. The build alternatives differ in planned alignments and in northern termini, which would be along F. E. Everett Turnpike, varying between exits 7 and 11. The proposed action (Alternative 9) was developed following the release of the draft EIS; it generally follows alignments designated for other alternatives except a segment of new alignment between the Merrimack River and the F.E. Everett Turnpike. The estimated cost of the proposed action is $186 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In the study area, traffic is expected to outstrip the capacity of existing road systems; congestion in the area is already severe. Existing bridge crossings and major arterials cannot be substantially improved because of limited rights-of-way and intense urban development. Under the build alternatives, current and future residential and business development would benefit from improved traffic flow and accessibility, and air pollutant levels would decrease somewhat. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way acquisition would displace 11 to 53 residences and 2 to 3 businesses; 15 to 45 acres of active farmland; and 54 to 94 acres of wetlands. Up to 51 acres in the National Wetlands Inventory would be filled. Some 511 to 641 acres of undeveloped wildlife habitat would be adversely affected. Continued fragmentation of the urbanizing environment of southern New Hampshire would also occur. The project would encroach on bald eagle roost and feeding habitat, and on aquifer and well areas. Two of the alternatives would bisect the property of the Anheuser-Busch brewery, a major employer and tourist attraction. Historic sites, some already listed in or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, would be adversely affected. Portions of some archaeologically sensitive areas would be cross-cut by the build alternatives.

AN - 36413840; 4293 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan is proposed for regulating boating activity on the Fox River and Chain O' Lakes system in Lake and McHenry counties in northern Illinois. The project area extends from the Wisconsin-Illinois border to Route 62 at the Algonquin Dam, encompassing the immediate vicinities of Channel Lake, Catherine Lake, Lake Marie, Bluff Lake, Petite Lake, Grass Lake, Fox Lake, Nippersink Lake, Pistakee Lake, several islands, numerous interconnecting channels, and portions of the Fox River. For many years the area has been a popular recreational site for Chicago residents, and boating activity has recently increased dramatically. Focal issues identified during the scoping process include the effects of the high levels of boating activity and the related water quality degradation, loss of wetlands, degradation of remaining wetlands, recreational boating conflicts, boating safety issues, substantial sedimentation, dredging needs in the lake and channel areas, difficulties in locating or permitting disposal areas for dredged materials, shoreline erosion, failures in seawall and shoreline protection, excessive boat noise, economic development, flooding, and controversy over the amount and timing of water drawdown on the lakes. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed plan (Alternative 2), there would be no net gain in the total number of existing boat docks, slips, ramps, or launches; no additional facilities would be permitted unless similar facilities were removed from the system. Public and multi-user dock systems as well as marinas would not be approved unless existing boat slips providing dockage of the same size and an equivalent number of boats were removed from the system. Exceptions would be made for docks and slips added to an existing single-family waterfront residence; such single-family permits are currently covered under Corps of Engineers regional permits. Maintenance dredging of previously dredged channels and lake areas would continue. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed plan, regulatory authority would be consolidated under a single agency; currently several local, state, and federal agencies operate under various legal authorities within selected jurisdictions in the area. The proposed plan would improve public safety while minimizing environmental damage. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed plan, boating activity would continue at its current level (or increase slightly) and adversely affect the following: nutrient resuspension, water clarity, and total suspended solids; shoreline erosion; sediment quality; algal blooms; noise levels; composition, condition, distribution, and diversity of aquatic plants, including both threatened and endangered species and lotus; condition, distribution, and diversity of fish; threatened and endangered fauna; waterfowl and shorebirds; muskrats; ecological relationships concerning natural areas, aquatic habitat, wetland habitat, system condition, and resource-carrying capacity; a state park; congestion; conflicting uses; and summer sailing and cruising.

The source of the heat for the geothermal field and the nature of the hydrothermal system have been investigated by analyses of gravity, thermal, and hydrogeologic data. A deep, cylindrically shaped, anomalous mass approximately 10-15 km in diameter is inferred to exist approximately 5 km beneath the geothermal field based on inverse modeling of a -17 mGal gravity anomaly isolated by strike filtering. This body is assumed to be a young intrusion and the heat source for the geothermal field. The configuration of the anomalous body was used in a vertical cross-sectional model of the hydrothermal system. The results of the modeling indicate (1) the source of the fluid recharge for the field is the Mineral Mountains; (2) the age of the source of the geothermal field may be younger than 500,000 years, the age of nearby rhyolites; (3) water at high temperature may be found beneath the sedimentary basin west of the geothermal field if sufficient permeability can be found; (4) the deep body beneath the field has significant permeability, in excess of 5 X 10 (super -18) m (super 2) ; and (5) the fault zone which acts as a conduit for upwelling thermal waters and provides the production at the field is probably bounded by low-permeability material.

AN - 36415050; 4297 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of the navigation channel at Coos Bay, Oregon, is proposed. Coos Bay is the largest estuary on the Oregon coast excluding the Columbia River; the estuary covers over 12,000 acres, most of which are tide flats and tidal marshes. Some tributaries drain into the estuary, including the Coos River. Coos Bay is one of the world's largest shipping ports for timber products. The existing project at Coos Bay provides a channel over an entrance bar that is one mile long and 45 feet deep. The channel, which is stabilized by jetties to the north and south, transitions to a 35-foot-deep inner channel extending 15 miles to the city of Coos Bay. Six alternative plans related to channel modification, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 2) would deepen the channel by two feet from the entrance to river mile (rm) 15 and widen the turning basin at rm 12 by 100 feet. More specifically, the preferred plan would provide an outer bar approach 47 feet deep and 700 feet wide; an entrance through the jetties 47 feet by 700 feet wide, tapering to 300 feet wide by 37 feet deep; a lower channel 37 feet deep by 300 feet wide to rm 9 and an upper channel 37 feet deep by 400 feet wide to rm 15; and expanding the rm 12 turning basin width from 800 feet to 900 feet. The dredged material would be disposed at designated offshore sites; all material dredged from the channel is considered suitable for in-water disposal. The total estimated annual costs of the proposal are $1.31 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Deepening the existing entrance and inner channel would reduce commercial shipping delays and allow full loading of ships. Channel deepening would permit larger vessels to use the port, resulting in fewer ships carrying the same or increased cargo volumes at lower cost per ton. Channel deepening would also allow the port to maintain its competitive position in the world market. The proposed plan would have annual benefits of $4.67 million. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would alter present topography along the 15-mile length of the navigation channel and at the ocean disposal sites; remove or bury benthic organisms at these sites; disturb fish and wildlife habitat and food sources through dredging, mechanical rock removal, and disposal; temporarily increase estuarine turbidity and salinity; slightly change estuarine circulation and sedimentation patterns; and slightly increase maintenance dredging requirements.

Preparation date: September 24, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - US TRUNK HIGHWAY 14 FROM OWATONNA TO KASSON (STATE PROJECT 2001-14; 2002-23), DODGE AND STEELE COUNTIES, MINNESOTA. AN - 36389699; 4270 AB - PURPOSE: The reconstruction of a segment of US Trunk Highway 14 (US 14), located in Dodge and Steel counties, Minnesota, is proposed. The project would be located in the southeastern portion of the state. It would extend approximately 24 miles eastward from the existing four-lane section south of the city of Owatonna (1.3 miles west of the junction of Trunk Highway (TH) 218) to the existing four-lane section west of the city of Kasson. Communities directly affected by the proposed action would include Owatonna, Claremont, and Dodge Center. This segment of US 14 is currently a ten-ton, two-lane roadway classified as a principal arterial. The project would provide a four-lane divided highway that would meet state design standards for a rural, controlled-access expressway. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Alternative 1A would involve construction on a new alignment through most of the project study area from Owatonna to Kasson, including a southern bypass of the city of Dodge Center. A new bridge would be placed across Dodge Center Creek, and a grade-separated diamond interchange would be provided at the intersection of the facility with TH 56. Alternative 3 would involve widening of existing US 14 from the western terminus near TH 218 to the eastern terminus west of Kasson. This alternative would require construction of two grade-separated railroad crossings, an additional bridge crossing for Dodge Center Creek, and a four-lane urban section extending approximately 1.5 miles through Dodge Center. A frontage road system would be developed along the north side of the highway. Alternative 3A would follow the existing US 14 alignment for much of the project length between Owatonna and Kasson but would provide a northern bypass of Dodge Center. Grade separation structures and stream crossings would be similar to those under Alternative 3, and a grade-separated diamond interchange would be provided at what would become the northern extension of TH 56. The preferred alternative, newly presented in this final EIS, combines Alternatives 1A and 3, thereby providing a southern bypass of Dodge Center and using most of the existing alignment west of Dodge Center. The reconstruction of the existing US 14 alignment would be staged over a period contingent on funding availability. This final EIS assesses the impacts of the preferred alternative and presents public comments on the draft EIS, which is being reissued as a companion document. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Safety, capacity, and level of service on US 14 would be greatly improved. Local and regional accessibility (travel time) would also improve significantly. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way development under the preferred alternative would displace 15.4 acres of existing wetlands, as well as 461 acres of farmlands, and eight residences. It would also require the partial acquisition of 11 residences and 1 business. The project would encroach on 1.4 acres of floodplains, but no increased flood hazard would result. Four receptors would be exposed to noise level increases of 10 decibels or greater. One archaeological site would be adversely affected. The crossing of Dodge Center Creek would adversely affect potential habitat of the state-listed threatened wood turtle, while native prairie plants along the DM&E railroad corridor could also be adversely affected.

Preparation date: September 20, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SOUTHEASTERN PUBLIC SERVICE AUTHORITY OF VIRGINIA REGIONAL LANDFILL PROJECT, SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA. AN - 36409774; 4290 AB - PURPOSE: The Southeastern Public Service Authority (SPSA) proposes the expansion of its existing regional landfill onto an adjacent 525-acre parcel of land in Suffolk, Virginia. The SPSA serves the disposal needs of Virginia Beach and seven other communities in the south Hampton Roads area of southeastern Virginia. The service area is situated just below the confluence of the James, Nansemond, and Elizabeth Rivers. The regional landfill is one component of a multi-component waste management system that also includes a refuse-derived fuel facility and power plant, a yard waste management facility, a tire recycling facility, a ferrous metal processing plant, a recycling program and solid waste transfer stations located throughout the service area. The waste management system requires the use of the regional landfill to dispose of noncombustible and nonrecyclable materials and well as certain recycling wastes. Under the proposed alternative, which is the preferred alternative, approximately 230 acres of landfill space would be dedicated fill area, 190 acres would be used as borrow area, and approximately 25 acres would accommodate a leachate management area. Maximum fill height of the terraced area mound landfill, limited by the proximity of the Hampton Road Airport, would be 145 feet above the existing ground level. In addition to the No Action Alternative, two other alternatives for the landfill are considered in this draft EIS: a 700-acre site on the Isle of Wight, and a 3,850-acre Chesapeake site located across US 17 from the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would help meet the waste disposal needs of a fast-growing section of the southern Virginia. Expanding the existing site would be more cost-effective than developing a new site; otherwise life cycle costs through the year 2020 would increase by $11.6 million for the Chesapeake and $187 million for the Isle of Wight site. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed expansion would adversely affect an estimated 377 acres of wetlands. Approximately 200 acres of wetlands would be filled by the landfill and perimeter roads, 152 acres would be excavated as borrow for daily cover material, and 25 acres would be converted to a leachate management facility. It is estimated that 64 species of amphibians and reptiles and 43 species of mammals occur in or near the expansion site. Since the site is heavily wooded and lies directly north of the Great Dismal Swamp, an estimated 55 species of birds and 2 endangered species would be present in the area.

AN - 36389932; 4295 AB - PURPOSE: The modification of the Dike 14 Confined Disposal Facility in Cleveland Harbor in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, is proposed. Since 1968, all material dredged from the Cleveland River by the federal government, and much of that from the Outer Harbor and entrance channel, has been placed in confinement areas built in the harbor area. Dike Disposal Site 14 was built between September 1976 and October 1979. Since its completion, all highly polluted sediments dredged from federal navigation channels in Cleveland Harbor have been placed in the Dike 14 facility, which covers 88 acres. Dike 14 has also been used as a disposal site by various private dredging operations. Under the proposed plan, the dike would be incrementally raised to provide additional interim disposal capacity until a new confined disposal facility could be developed. The incremental raising would take place only if interim disposal of dredged material became necessary. The plan would raise the dike at the existing site by a maximum of seven feet, or 27 feet above the low water datum, and provide a maximum service life of approximately three years beyond its current capacity. A seven-foot increase in the dike height would provide 880,000 cubic yards of capacity. The plan would result in an increased height of dredged material within the existing dike and over the top of the Doan Brook culvert. Structural analysis indicates that the culvert would be overstressed if dredged material is allowed to flow freely to the planned elevation afforded by the increased height of the perimeter dike. To assure that design limitations as to maximum fill elevations are not exceeded, temporary dikes would be built to hold back the dredged material from over the top of Doan Brook culvert. The center area over the Doan Brook culvert would be secluded by temporary dike walls along each side. A maximum fill elevation of 19 feet above low water datum would be maintained over the lakeward end of the culvert, with a nominal upward gradient landward to provide positive drainage of the area. A weir would be built at the dike wall by cutting off the existing sheet pile elevation at 19.5 feet above low water datum. The estimated cost of the project is $1.39 million, and the benefit-cost ratio is 2.13. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Expansion of the capacity of the diked disposal facility would ensure an environmentally appropriate receptacle for contaminated material dredged from federal and nonfederal channels within Cleveland Harbor. Disposal availability would allow continued use of harbor channels, sustaining the local and regional economy. Maintenance dredging would reduce sediment loadings from the Cuyahoga River to Lake Erie. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Future dredging of harbor channels would result in resuspension of pollutants, turbidity, and temporary aesthetic impacts due to reduced water clarity. Dredging would also damage and, in some cases, destroy aquatic organisms. Construction and dredging operations would result in significant adverse noise emissions. Expansion of the diked facility would delay plans to transform the facility into a city park.

AN - 15223904; 4296 AB - PURPOSE: The expansion on the Barney Reservoir, an existing 200-acre reservoir on the Middle Fork North Fork Trask River in the Oregon Coast Range, is proposed. The reservoir serves as the municipal water supply for the cities of Hillsboro, Forest Grove, Beaverton, and several smaller communities in service areas of the Joint Water Commission and Tualatin Valley Water District. The reservoir is located in southwest Washington County, approximately 36 miles southwest of Portland and 13 miles west of Yamhill, Oregon. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed project would raise the existing 72-foot earthfill Trask Dam by 50 feet to increase the water storage capacity of Barney Reservoir from 4,000 to 20,000 acre-feet. The dam would be built of rockfill with an earthfill core. After the dam is raised, the maximum reservoir pool would increase from 200 to 450 acres. Project construction would include the establishment of borrow areas; the relocation of North Fork Trask Road; the construction of temporary access roads; the establishment of temporary and permanent materials stockpiling and storage areas; and the development of construction staging areas, a rock processing plant, settling ponds, sediment control structures, and laydown areas. The project would include a logging plan to selectively log up to 320 acres of timber around the reservoir's perimeter and at other impact areas. The logging would salvage the economic value of the wood products, improve the reservoir holding capacity, and provide water quality protection. The logging plan would require the construction of temporary roads, the leaving of some trees for habitat purposes, the removal of vegetation, and controlled burning activities. Construction of the dam and related facilities would take place over two years. The other action alternative would replace the earthfill core with a facing consisting of roller-compacted concrete on the upstream side of the rockfill. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide needed water supplies to meet increasing demands in the fastest growing county in Oregon. Fish habitat in the reservoir would more than double because of the increase in surface area. Expansion of the reservoir would provide more flexible flow releases to the Trask River over time and increase summer flow releases in the Tualatin River. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction and operation of the dam would alter site topography, induce erosion, and result in the loss of 50 acres of wetlands, 8 acres of shallow-water habitat, and up to 366 acres of wildlife habitat. This loss of habitat would adversely affect elk, mallards, song sparrows, yellow warblers, and Nelson's checkermallows, a threatened plant. A historic trail could also be adversely affected by the proposed project.

Preparation date: September 7, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - MON-FAYETTE TRANSPORTATION PROJECT, I-70 TO ROUTE 51, WASHINGTON AND ALLEGHENY COUNTIES, PENNSYLVANIA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MARCH 1993). AN - 36410629; 4276 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a 17-mile highway extending from Interstate 70 (I-70) in Fallowfield Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, to Route 51 in Jefferson Borough, Allegheny County, is proposed. The proposed project is one of four segments of the Mon-Fayette Transportation Project, which is designed to provide highway improvements between Pittsburgh and Morgantown, West Virginia. The facility would be a multilane, limited-access toll highway with interchanges at four locations. Five alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this supplement to the draft EIS of March 1993. The preferred alternative (New Alignment Alternative) in the draft EIS would be built along a new alignment and would have four 12-foot-wide lanes with a 60-foot-wide grass median. Two alternative alignments, the Orange and the Brown, were considered in the draft EIS. Both alignments generally follow the course of the Monongahela River, which is located one to two miles to the east. In the first section, the first toll interchange north of I-70 for both alignments would be located east of Ghennes Height, and would provide local access to Coyle Curtain Road. In the second section, the Orange alignment would have a toll interchange east of wetland NOJ, which would provide local access to Route 136; the Brown alignment interchange would be located along Route 136 east of Ringgold High School and Calvary Cemetery. In the third section, both alignments would have toll interchanges at Finleyville Elrama Road, located several hundred feet apart. In the final section, both alignments would terminate at Route 51 with toll interchanges approximately 0.4 miles apart. This draft supplement considers a new alignment, the Green alignment, which would generally follow the Brown alignment throughout most of its proposed length, then diverges to the east near the residential area known as Scenery Hill. It would then follow an alignment to the east of Peters Creek and the Norfolk and Western Railroad until connecting with Route 51. This draft supplement also considers the effects of upgrading Route 51 for two miles between Lewis Run Road and Millers Grove-Clairton Road. Total estimated construction costs are $376 million for the Brown alternative, $377 million for the Orange alternative, $371 million for a combination of the two alternatives, and $376 million for the Green alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed construction would improve travel time, access, and safety for motorists in the mid-Mon Valley, and would reduce congestion on existing north-south highways, which have poor alignments, steep grades, and inadequate sight distances. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would displace up to 20 businesses, 131 residences, 4.04 acres of wetlands, 327 acres of productive farmland, and up to 3,778 habitat units. In addition, two historic properties in the project area could be adversely affected.

Preparation date: September 3, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - DESIGNATION OF A DEEP WATER DREDGED MATERIAL DISPOSAL SITE OFF SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36406272; 4291 AB - PURPOSE: The designation of a permanent ocean disposal site for sediments dredged from San Francisco Bay is proposed. Presently no ocean disposal site is available to accept this dredged material. An estimated six million cubic yards (cy) of material would be disposed of at the designated site each year for a 50-year period beginning in 1994. The total projected dredging volume over the 50-year period is 400.3 million cubic yards of sediment. All dredged material would be tested to ensure its suitability for ocean disposal. Three alternative sites are considered in this final EIS as potential disposal sites. All are located in the Pacific Ocean on the continental slope and rise off San Francisco; all are uniform in size, having an oval shape approximately 3.7 nautical miles (nmi) long and 2.2 nmi wide. The site boundaries were established to conform with the model-predicted deposit thickness of ten centimeters, which is the threshold above which impacts are expected to be significant (such as the smothering of bottom-dwelling organisms). Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 5), the site would be located on the continental rise, where ocean depths range from 2,500 meters to 3,000 meters, approximately 49 nmi from the coast and 50 nmi from the Golden Gate Bridge. The Army Corps of Engineers expects that the disposal site would be used throughout the year, except when wave heights exceed three meters and wave periods are nine seconds or less (approximately 10 percent of the time, typically from February through May). However, seasonal restrictions on dredging activities imposed by biological events such as migration, spawning, and nesting activities would also affect use of the disposal site. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The availability of a sediment-disposal site would allow for the maintenance dredging of channels and expansion of dock facilities, which are necessary to sustain economic growth and the strategic use of ports in San Francisco Bay. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Continued use of the site would result in the smothering of some benthic organisms and prevent the reestablishment of the benthic community in any areas where the deposit levels are ten centimeters or more. Under the preferred alternative, the site would be located in the vicinity of former disposal sites for chemical and radioactive wastes; it is considered unlikely, however, that the dredged materials would interact with these wastes. In fact, the deposition could bury and further isolate these wastes. Barge transit could interfere with access to the Farrallon Islands and Cordell Banks, an area popular with wildlife and naturalist groups.

Total dissolved Cu, [Cu] sub(T), was in the range 0.5-2.8 10 super(-) super(8) M, while [Cu super(2+)] ranged from 10 super(-16) to 10 super(-14) M at different times and depths. These values of [Cu super(2+)] are much lower than literature values for the open sea. Equilibrium models of titration data indicate the presence of very strong ligands with conditional stability constants of 10 super(13.9)-10 super(14.9) and corresponding concentrations of 40-90 nM. Measured [Cu super(2+)] was especially low during the algal bloom in spring and was higher in winter. p[Cu] and ratios of [Cu] sub(T) to [Cu super(2+)] thus exhibit a seasonal pattern similar to that of algal productivity, suggesting that the Cu-complexing ligands are produced by algae.

AN - 36412305; 4187 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of Forest Development Road Number 30, which closely parallels the Salmon River in the Salmon National Forest in east-central Idaho, is proposed. The affected road, also known as the Salmon River Road, extends for 46 miles from the town of North Fork west to the Corn Creek campground and boating site. In 1980 Congress designated the Salmon River as a wild and scenic river, and the 46-mile segment within the proposed project area was classified as a recreational river. The Salmon River Road provides launch access and removal points for float-boaters using the Salmon River, and the only feasible access to private lands and numerous side drainages where other resource activities occur. The road is paved with an asphalt surface for approximately 16.8 miles and has a gravel surface for the remainder. Five alternatives (a No Action Alternative designated Alternative A, action alternatives designated B through D, and the preferred alternative, which is not otherwise designated) are considered in this final EIS. All of the action alternatives would involve improving eight existing recreation sites and developing up to eight new sites. Alternative B would involve a high level of roadway improvements, including paving approximately 29 miles of roadway, widening the roadway through the construction of retaining walls and some minor realignment, and installing guardrails. Alternative C would involve a moderate level of roadway improvements, including paving 9.8 miles of existing gravel road and applying crushed gravel to 19.8 miles of existing gravel road and spot paving through approximately 2.7 miles of residential, commercial, and recreation areas. Alternative D would involve a low level of roadway improvements, including paving 3.1 miles of existing gravel road and applying additional crushed gravel to the remaining 26 miles of gravel roadway; no spot paving would take place under this alternative below Pine Creek. The preferred alternative is a variation of Alternative D under which approximately 11,600 feet of spot paving would occur in residential and commercial areas. The estimated construction costs range from $2.2 million for Alternative D to $6.8 million for Alternative B. Recreation site developments would cost $1.7 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed improvements would facilitate safe travel along the Salmon River Road and enhance the quality of recreational experiences associated with the Salmon River. The improvements would be in compliance with the forest plan. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The estimated loss of wildlife habitat from the improvements beyond the road prism would range from 0.3 to 9.8 acres. Recreation site improvement and development, as well as the development of borrow sites, could disturb an additional 28 acres and 13.5 acres, respectively. The proposed retaining wall associated with Alternative B would encroach upon 2,300 feet of the floodplain, in contrast to that of Alternative C, which would encroach upon 200 feet of the floodplain. Increased turbidity and sedimentation would adversely affect fisheries under all of the action alternatives; among the species adversely affected would be two protected species, the sockeye salmon and chinook salmon. Some ponderosa pine would be lost under all of the action alternatives; they would also adversely affect the unique visual quality of the road and river corridor. Numerous archaeological sites and cultural resources near the road would also be adversely affected by the proposed improvements.

AN - 15223246; 4213 AB - PURPOSE: The designation of the Stellwagen Bank and surrounding waters offshore of Provincetown, Massachusetts, as a national marine sanctuary is proposed. The sanctuary would consist of federal waters within a 453-square-nautical-mile area, extending 19 miles with a breadth of six miles at its widest point and lying approximately 3.5 miles northwest of Provincetown. The Stellwagen Bank is located in the extreme southwestern Gulf of Maine, which is formed by the bight of the northwest Atlantic coastline between Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and Cape Sable, Nova Scotia. Between Cape Ann and Cape Cod, in the southwest corner of the gulf, is Massachusetts Bay, 75 percent enclosed by land. The bay's most prominent submarine feature is Stellwagen Bank, which lies at the bay's eastern edge and partially blocks its mouth. The bank is a shallow, glacially deposited, primarily sandy-submerged feature, measuring nearly 20 miles in length. Water depths around the bank range from 65 feet to more than 300 feet. The resource protection plan for the sanctuary would involve cooperation with other agencies and organizations in formulating policies and procedures, including those related to enforcement of regulations affecting uses of the bank's resources. Sanctuary regulations would prohibit the following within the sanctuary: (1) the discharge or disposal of materials or substances from within the sanctuary boundary; (2) the discharge or disposal of materials or substances from outside the sanctuary boundary that subsequently enter the sanctuary and injure a sanctuary resource or quality; (3) the exploration for, development of, or production of industrial materials (e.g., sand and gravel); (4) the construction, placement, or abandonment on a seabed of any structure or material (e.g. pipelines or cables), or any alteration of the seabed; (5) the removal or alteration of or damage to (as well as attempt to cause the removal or alteration of or damage to) any historical or cultural resource; (6) the taking of any marine reptile, marine mammal, or seabird, except as permitted by the Marine Mammal Protection Act; (7) the at-sea ship-to-ship transfer of petroleum products (lightering); (8) the possession within the sanctuary of any historical or wildlife resource taken in violation of the Endangered Species Act, Marine Mammal Protection Act, or Migratory Bird Treaty Act; and (9) the interference with any investigation pursuant to regulatory enforcement. Additionally, certain activities not currently proposed for regulation would be identified in the designation document as subject to sanctuary regulations if, following designation, the need to regulate was demonstrated as necessary for the protection of the sanctuary resources and qualities. Research associated with the designation would include baseline studies, monitoring, and analysis and prediction projects to provide information needed to resolve management issues. Interpretive/educational programs would be directed at improving public awareness of the sanctuary's resources and the need to manage them wisely to ensure their continued viability and abundance. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Preservation of Stellwagen Bank as a national marine sanctuary would provide for a long-term integrated program of resource protection, research, and interpretation/education to assure comprehensive management and protection of the Stellwagen Bank system. Socioeconomic benefits could result from increased awareness of the Stellwagen Bank's ecological value and visitation by the public. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: NONE.

Preparation date: August 27, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - REVIEW OF PRADO DAM OPERATION FOR WATER CONSERVATION, PRADO DAM AND RESERVOIR, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36389238; 4210 AB - PURPOSE: The alteration of the management plan for the Prado Dam in Riverside and San Bernardino counties, California, is proposed to allow the dam to operate as a water conservation and storage facility. The dam, which is located on the Santa Ana River three miles upstream of the Orange County line and 31 miles upstream of the Pacific Ocean, is currently operated for flood control, with authorization for incidental water conservation measures. Project facilities include an earthfill embankment rising 106 feet above the stream bed, with a crest length of 2,280 feet, and a reservoir behind the dam, contained at a spillway crest of 543 feet and holding 196,000 acre-feet (af) of water; approximately 6,630 acres of land are covered at this elevation, and 9,741 acres at the 556-foot take line. The watershed supplying runoff to Prado occupies an area extending from the city of Pomona to Mount San Antonio along the crest of the San Gabriel and San Bernardino mountains, including Big Bear Lake, to Mount San Gorgonio and San Gorgonio Pass, and including Lake Elsinore. Various recreational uses, wildlife resources, and cultural resources are present in the basin associated with the dam. The proposed project would allow storage of water at Prado Dam after the main winter flood season to provide recharge water for spreading facilities downstream of the dam. Three alternatives for conservation pool maximum elevations are considered in this final EIS as well as the present operational regime. The present operational plan results in the delivery of approximately 212,900 af of water annually to the vicinity of the spreading grounds in the Santa Ana River, based on inflows adjusted to 1988 conditions. Of that amount, approximately 171,700 af per year are available for diversion, based on a 450 cubic-foot-per-second spreading ground infiltration rate. The percentage of conservable water is approximately 81 percent. This conservation water plan is being implemented with the 490-foot debris pool. The three alternatives would provide for a conservation pool at 495 feet, 500 feet, or 505 feet. Additional conservable water increases arithmetically with increases in elevation of the seasonal pool. The respective increases in conservable water for crest elevations of 495, 500, and 505 feet are 1,456 af, 3,179 af, and 4,634 af, based on 1988 conditions. Under the preferred alternative, a seasonal water conservation pool would be expanded to 505 feet. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In addition to providing the same level of flood control provided historically by the Prado Dam, increasing the conservation pool elevation and associated releases would result in water savings and improvements in the availability and quality of water resulting from project regulation and operation. Balanced resource use through improved regulation would ensure the conservation of as much water as possible and maximization of all project functions consistent with project management. The plan would also increase marsh and open water habitat at the reservoir, the riparian habitat on the fringe of the inundation area, and recreational opportunities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The plan would adversely affect biological resources, cultural and historic resources, and recreational uses within the basin. Cultural resource sites and the habitat of least Bell's vireos, an endangered bird species, would be inundated by the elevation of the water in the conservation pool.

Preparation date: August 18, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - IMPROVEMENTS TO SOUTH LOCUST STREET, GRAND ISLAND, HALL COUNTY, NEBRASKA. AN - 36410267; 4192 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of South Locust Street in the vicinity of Grand Island, Nebraska, is proposed. The proposed action would provide a new interchange with Interstate 80 (I-80), which would be located approximately seven miles from City Hall; the two existing interchanges are located nine and 11 miles from City Hall. The proposed project would begin 0.5 miles south of I-80 and continue north approximately 5.5 miles to a point 1,200 feet north of US 34. South Locust Street would be upgraded from a two-lane rural section to a four-lane, limited-access roadway; within the city limits of Grand Island, a fifth lane would be added. Three or four bridges crossing the Platte River would be widened as would the I-80 overpass. The existing alignment would also be widened and new northbound lanes would be built, thereby minimizing rights-of-way requirements and significant adverse impacts. The preferred interchange design would be a diamond with loop and three-lane overpass. The only other alternative considered in this draft EIS is a No Action Alternative. The project would be built in phases and reach completion in the year 2007; estimated project costs range from $19.0 million to $23.7 million, depending on the type of interchange and overpass built at I-80. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project, which would provide a more direct access to the central business district and a vital link between the Grand Island business community and the regional and national markets, would stimulate the local economy by generating more visitor traffic, new businesses, new jobs, and an increased tax base for both the city and the county. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative, using the existing alignment and the diamond interchange with the loop design, would require 129.8 acres for rights-of-way and 175.4 acres of additional takings. Some 58 acres of prime farmland and 7.2 acres of wetlands would be displaced. Two residences would experience noise levels in excess of federal standards, and seven irrigation wells would require relocation. Approximately 326 trees would be removed.

AN - 36414680; 4186 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a multi-lane, fully-controlled access highway from the existing terminus of Maryland Route 301 at the Delaware /Maryland state line west of Middleton to Interstate 95 (I-95) near Newark, Delaware, is proposed. The project area extends for 16 to 20 miles through the central and western portions of New Castle County. The project would provide improved north-south access between I-95 and existing Route 301; it is projected that all segments of the existing route through the project corridor would be operating at unacceptable levels of service by the year 2010, largely as the result of an anticipated population increase of 68 percent in the area. A No Action Alternative; the Multi-Modal Alternative, which would emphasize mass transit, bicycling, and walking; the Transportation Demand Management Alternative, which would emphasize carpooling, park and ride lots, high-occupancy-vehicle lanes, and staggered work shifts, to name a few; and numerous build alternatives are considered in this draft EIS. All of the build alternatives, which would connect with Maryland Route 301 at the state line and with I-95, would cross the C&D Canal at the existing Summit Bridge in order to minimize impacts to a nearby wildlife refuge, a state park, and a wetlands area. Only one build alternative in the project area north of the canal, the North Reconstruction (NRE) Alternative, is given detailed study in this draft EIS. Under this alternative, a new Route 301 would be built along the current right-of-way along Route 896, a distance of 6.7 miles. The current right-of-way along Route 896 is of sufficient width to accommodate a new Route 301 between the canal and Route 40; from Route 40 to I-95, additional right-of-way would be required. Four I-95 interchange locations and two interchange designs are under consideration. The estimated cost of the NRE is $94 million. Three build alternatives are under consideration south of the canal, each approximately ten miles long. The South Reconstruction Alternative would resemble the NRE Alternative in that it would follow the existing Route 896 alignment; the other two alternatives would be developed along new alignments. The estimated cost of the southern build alternatives range from $68.6 million to $103.7 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The build alternatives would relieve capacity problems and improve traffic safety along existing Route 896, and would create the transportation infrastructure necessary to support economic development in the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements under the NRE Alternative would displace 33 residences and five businesses, and would adversely affect 30.3 acres of wetlands, public parkland at Iron Hill Park, 29 historic buildings, two historic districts, and 28 known archaeological sites. In the southern portion of the corridor, the South Reconstruction Alternative would displace 22 homes and 24 businesses, and would adversely affect 38 historic buildings, 36 potential archaeological sites, and 46.1 acres of wetlands. The South Ridge Alternative would also adversely affect 27 farms. All build alternatives would increase noise levels at selected locations.

Preparation date: August 12, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - LONG-TERM CHANNEL MAINTENANCE PLAN FOR THE FEDERAL HARBOR, AND A PERMIT APPLICATION TO CONSTRUCT AND EXPAND BARGE TERMINAL FACILITIES, IN THE EAST CHANNEL OF THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER AT PRAIRIE DU CHIEN, WISCONSIN. AN - 36410785; 4220 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a long-term plan for channel maintenance is proposed for the federal harbor in the East Channel of the Mississippi River at Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin. In addition, Prairie Sand and Gravel, Inc., has applied for a permit to upgrade and expand an existing barge transloading facility on the north end of St. Feriole Island, and an adjacent area on the mainland known as the Swingle site. In the past, approximately 230 loaded barges left the existing facility each year. If the proposed expansion is approved, the applicant estimates that within a couple of years up to 500 barges could be handled at the facility each year. The proposed channel maintenance plan would provide a 100-foot-wide navigation channel between the northern end of the East Channel and the federal harbor at City Dock. In order to maintain the channel, the Corps of Engineers has proposed two dredge cuts. Cut 1 would involve dredging 2,500 cubic yards from the north end of the East Channel. Cut 2 would involve dredging immediately in front of City Dock; however, this operation would be deferred as a result of objections filed by the Fish and Wildlife Service. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The action alternatives differ primarily in regard to the levels of barge traffic and maintenance dredging allowed. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed actions would facilitate navigation in the East Hannel of the Mississippi River, and, as a result, the movement of grain and other commodities down the river. Facility expansion would stimulate the regional economy and increase incomes of Wisconsin farmers. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Increased navigation and channel maintenance activities in the area would adversely affect aquatic resources, fish, and freshwater mussels, including the endangered Higgins' eye pearly mussel (L. higginsi). Dredging would also destroy or disturb habitat and benthic organisms. Archaeological sites on the Prairie du Chien terrace, such as those around the proposed harbor at the Swingle site, would probably be adversely affected by any further development in the area. Any increase in the size and scope of the barge maneuvering and staging areas would detract from the view of the river from the Iowa side.

AN - 15221743; 4217 AB - PURPOSE: The widening of Wilmington Harbor in New Hanover and Brunswick counties, North Carolina, is proposed. Wilmington Harbor is a federal navigation project located along the Cape Fear and Northeast Cape Fear rivers in southeastern North Carolina. The project area extends approximately 31 miles upriver from the Atlantic Ocean to the Port of Wilmington. The existing harbor channel, which is 400 feet wide and 28 feet deep, is generally satisfactory for one-way traffic; however, delays often occur because no passing lane exists and today's deep-draft vessels exceed the design criteria of the channel. In addition, river pilots have identified five turns and bends where maneuvering problems occur and improvements are needed. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The selected plan would involve widening the existing navigation channel to 600 feet over a 6.2-mile reach of Wilmington Harbor. In addition, the five difficult turns would be widened by 150 to 200 feet each. The additional width of the passing lanes and the improved turns would be dredged to the existing channel depth of 38 feet, with one foot of required overdepth and one foot of allowable overdepth also being dredged (for a total depth of 40 feet). The turn improvements would be made by using a pipeline dredge, which involves dredging with a cutterhead and pumping the dredged material to a diked disposal area. Bucket and barge dredging would be used to build and maintain the passing lane. The material dredged from the passing lane would be disposed of at the designated offshore disposal site located three nautical miles south of the mouth of Cape Fear River. Approximately 4.08 million cubic yards of material would be dredged from the passing lanes and the turns. Maintenance dredging would be conducted at intervals of two to four years. Total estimated construction costs are $18.9 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Channel widening would allow for the passage of larger vessels through the harbor at all tides, thus reducing shipping delays and the operating costs of shippers. The modification of the harbor would make it more attractive for shipping interests and others, thus bringing in more business for the area. The benefit-cost ratio of the project is 1.5. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Adverse environmental impacts would include the conversion of estuarine bottom to channel, temporary increases in turbidity, and possible adverse impacts to the shortnose sturgeon, an endangered species, as a result of the blasting necessary for rock removal. Blasting techniques and timing would be designed to minimize the possibility that impacts to the shortnose sturgeon and to other fishery resources would occur. The grading and diking process would result in the loss of 6.3 acres of high marsh and 0.5 acres of intertidal marsh, although these losses would be offset by the creation of new wetlands.

The pseudo first-order rate constant for sulphate reduction is approx 10 x smaller than for nitrate. The main sink for sulphide is FeS from the reduction of Fe(III)(hydr)oxides. The reductive dissolution of Mn(III,IV) oxides is controlled by bacterial processes; approx 15% of the total Mn is subject to enzymatic dissolution, but enzymatically formed Fe(II) is only a small part of the FeS formed. Other results are discussed.

AN - 15232575; 4188 AB - PURPOSE: The extension of the Interstate 90 (I-90)/I-93 freeway system from its current terminus in Boston, Massachusetts, is proposed. The project, which would be known as the Central Artery (I-93)/Third Harbor Tunnel (I-90), would be located entirely in the city of Boston in Suffolk County. This draft supplement to the final EIS of August 1985 considers that portion of the project area north of the Causeway Street subarea and describes three new design alternatives for the Charles River crossing. The purpose in considering the new alternatives is to reduce the visual and environmental impacts associated with Scheme Z, the proposed action described in a 1991 final supplement. Scheme Z would include three bridge structures: two main cable-stayed bridges with towers on both sides of the river, and a double-deck bridge differing in type and profile from the main bridges. The cable-stayed bridges, each with five lanes in one direction, would accommodate the I-93 main line, while the double-deck bridge (three lanes over three) would accommodate traffic movements to and from Leverett Circle/Storrow Drive, for a total of 16 lanes over the river. Alternative 8.1D Modified 5 would include a ten-lane, cable-stayed main-line bridge with a single twin-leg tower on the north side of the river, a single loop ramp in East Cambridge, a three-lane northbound tunnel under the river, and land tunnels under East Cambridge, the North Station commuter railroad tracks, and the Register of Motor Vehicles building. Over 10,000 linear feet (lf) of structure would consist of tunnel, which represents the greatest length of tunnel structure of any of the three alternatives. The Reduced River-Tunnel Alternative would involve the construction of 6,150 lf of tunnel and a 12-lane main-line bridge supported by two towers, one on each side of the river. The bridge would provide four northbound and four southbound lanes; two lanes on the western side of the main line, carrying I-93/Route 1 southbound traffic to Leverett Circle/Storrow Drive; and two lanes on the eastern side of the main line, carrying traffic from downtown and the Sumner Tunnel to I-93 northbound. The Non-River-Tunnel Alternative would provide 3,300 lf of tunnel in the North Station area; a ten-lane, cable-stayed main-line bridge with a tower on either side of the river; and a four-lane bridge, with the same profile as the main-line structure, that would carry traffic to and from Storrow Drive/Leverett Circle. Tunnel footage would be reduced through the construction of a viaduct to carry Storrow Drive-to-Tobin Bridge traffic. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The Central Artery/Tunnel Project would have beneficial impacts in central Boston and its immediate surroundings. The capacity of I-93 would increase substantially, and, together with the extension of I-90, the freeway would relieve congestion on local streets and on the freeway system. Access to downtown Boston and Logan Airport would improve significantly, and air quality would improve as well. Economic benefits for the state, the New England County Metropolitan Area, Suffolk County, and the immediate study area would be substantial. Compared to Scheme Z, the three design alternatives for the Charles River crossing would improve traffic flow and the level of service. The three alternatives would each eliminate the need for the double crossing of the Charles River and would each include a new northbound on-ramp in the upper downtown area (at New Sudbury Street). NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some encroachment of parkland would take place under Scheme Z. All three design alternatives would require the acquisition of a hospital and a steam generating plant, two properties that would be unaffected by Scheme Z. Noise levels would exceed federal standards at some locations under all four plans, and all four would require the filling of 1.1 acres of wetlands in the Millers River area. Under the three design alternatives, the historic Registry of Motor Vehicles building would need to be underpinned to prevent any long-term impacts. Under Scheme Z, the size and prominence of the bridge structures would have a noticeable impact on the visual environment for motorists and pedestrians.

Preparation date: July 30, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - DESIGNATION OF AN OCEAN DREDGED MATERIAL DISPOSAL SITE LOCATED OFFSHORE FORT PIERCE, FLORIDA. AN - 36398048; 4211 AB - PURPOSE: The permanent designation of an ocean dredged-material disposal site (ODMDS) for the Fort Pierce Harbor, Florida, area is proposed. Two alternatives are considered in this draft EIS: the No Action Alternative, and the designation of an ODMDS site that would be managed in accordance with an approved site management and monitoring plan. The Fort Pierce Harbor ODMDS has already been designated as an interim disposal site, and the area has been used as a disposal site since 1949. The ODMDS is located approximately 4.5 nautical miles east of the Fort Pierce Inlet in water depths ranging from 40 to 54 feet. Approximately 30,300 cubic yards (cy) of material have been dredged annually from Fort Pierce Harbor, with about 21,000 cy of this material being disposed of in the interim ODMDS. Because the use of suitable dredged material for beach disposal is the preferred disposal alternative for all dredging projects, the placement of beach-quality material in the Fort Pierce Harbor ODMDS would be subject to agreement between the state of Florida and the Army Corps of Engineers as described in the dredged material disposal plan. The estimated beach fill capacity of the 2,000-foot beach disposal areas currently being used is 220,000 cy. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Limited upland disposal sites in the Fort Pierce area and the continued need to dredge the harbor justify the need for an offshore disposal site. Use of the interim ODMDS to date has produced no apparent adverse impact on resources in the vicinity, and it satisfies the general criteria and 11 specific criteria listed in the Ocean Dumping Regulations. The interim site's location would minimize dredged material transport costs for harbor dredging sites. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Use of the proposed site would produce water quality disturbances (turbidity plumes, the release of chemicals, and the lowering of dissolved oxygen concentrations); smother the site's benthic biota; change the site's bathymetry; and alter the site's sediment composition. Most adverse effects would be local and short-term, with water quality and biota recovering shortly after disposal activities ceased.

Preparation date: July 29, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - ABIACA CREEK WATERSHED DEMONSTRATION EROSION CONTROL PROJECT, YAZOO BASIN; CARROLL, HOLMES, AND LEFLORE COUNTIES, MISSISSIPPI. AN - 36397836; 4215 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of sediment and flood control measures are proposed for the Abiaca Creek watershed (ACW) in portions of Carroll, Holmes, and Leflore counties in the Yazoo Basin in northwest Mississippi. Abiaca Creek originates in the loess hills southeast of Greenwood, and flows westward into the delta region of the state before joining the Yazoo River. Two alternatives, including the No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. The preferred alternative would include 10.6 miles of new levee construction, an overflow weir in Abiaca Creek near Highway 49, and three floodwater retarding structures on tributaries within the upper reaches of the ACW. The complete project plans for the ACW also include 19 additional floodwater retarding structures, two low-drop grade control structures, 125 riser pipe grade control structures, 155 debris basins, 9,600 linear feet of bank stabilization, and $450,500 in land treatment measures such as reforestation, revegetation, and terracing. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Currently, the ACW has problems with channel instability, and with related channel degradation and bank, gully, and overland flow erosion. The proposed control measures would alleviate the erosion of channel beds and banks, the high sediment loads that are deposited in the downstream reach of Abiaca Creek, the reduced channel conveyance capacity, the increased flooding on agricultural lands, and the deposition of large quantities of sediment into Mathews Brake National Wildlife Refuge. In addition, the project would provide for ten-year-frequency flood protection to adjacent properties while simultaneously providing for 50 years of sediment deposition. Additional benefits would include the revegetation of construction areas and levees with plant species of greater economic and wildlife value than existing vegetation, and the establishment of approximately 82 acres of aquatic habitat in the hills to improve fishery resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way clearing and construction phases would negatively impact 14 acres of bottomland hardwood habitat, 133 acres of agricultural land, 55 acres of riparian/upland hardwood habitat, and 27 acres of pastureland.

Preparation date: July 22, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - RIVER MAINTENANCE PROGRAM FOR THE RIO GRANDE--VELARDE TO CABALLO DAM, RIO GRANDE AND MIDDLE RIO GRANDE PROJECTS, NEW MEXICO (FINAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MARCH 1977). AN - 36398087; 4216 AB - PURPOSE: The modification of the river maintenance program on the Rio Grande, which involves transporting water and sediment to Elephant Butte Reservoir in New Mexico, is proposed. The modification would allow the maintenance program to reflect current engineering methodologies and environmental values that, while providing for long-term river management, would also protect the inherent environmental resources and project features associated with the Rio Grande and its floodway in New Mexico. This final supplement to the final EIS of March 1977 analyzes the impacts of the Bureau of Reclamation's preferred-action river maintenance programs in ten morphologically discrete reaches of the Rio Grande over a 286-mile stretch of the river. The following preferred action alternatives are addressed in the final supplement: (1) bank stabilization measures, including revetments (rock riprap, gabions, windrows, stabilized soil, manufactured revetment units, cellular confinement systems, and permeable jetty jacks), curve reshaping, and plantings to stabilize riverbanks; (2) river training works for influencing flow alignment and controlling and managing overbank flow (groins, training dikes, freeboard dikes, pilot channels, and vanes); (3) sediment removal to maintain flow capacity (arroyo plug removal, island and bar removal, and dredging); (4) vegetation control to increase the floodway capacity in order to pass high flows (mowing, root plowing, and spraying); (5) snag removal to prevent the obstruction and/or deflection of river flows; and (6) levee maintenance in the Socorro, Bosque del Apache, San Marcial, and Elephant Butte reaches. Although an interstate river compact and two legislative mandates preclude a No Action Alternative, a No Additional Federal Action Alternative is also discussed. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed modifications, riverbank stabilization would prevent further erosion and undercut banks. River training utilized in the Velarde, Espanola, Socorro, and San Marcial reaches would realign river flow alignment and inhibit overbank flows. Sediment removal would restore flow capacity to the channel. Levee maintenance would reduce the risk of flooding in areas susceptible to breaching or in areas that need reinforcement; the levees, in many instances, are also used for access to the river for maintenance purposes. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Riverbank stabilization would initially disturb riverbank vegetation. The initial construction of both groins and dikes would smother sessile aquatic organisms. The removal of snags from the river channel would eliminate perching sites for numerous avian species, existing or potential sites for invertebrate attachment, and a certain amount of aquatic cover for existing fisheries. The project could also disturb wintering bald eagles in some locations. LEGAL MANDATES: Flood Control Act of 1948, and Flood Control Act of 1950.

Preparation date: July 16, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - JACKSON HOLE [WYOMING] FLOOD PROTECTION PROJECT: QUARRY/PROJECT ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF APRIL 1990). AN - 36412624; 4221 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of the flood control levees protecting Jackson Hole, Wyoming, is proposed. The study area includes both the federal and nonfederal levees on the banks of the Upper Snake River and the lower reach of the Gros Ventre River. All levees along a 25-mile stretch of the Snake River from Grand Teton National Park to the South Park Bridge, and three nonfederal levees located on the lower reach of the Gros Ventre River, are maintained by the Army Corps of Engineers. This draft supplement to the final EIS of 1990 addresses the environmental effects of the proposed improvements, which consist of developing a new quarry to supply riprap for the levees, or developing suitable alternative sources of levee protection, and upgrading road access to the levee for project operations and maintenance. The quarry would provide a reliable, long-term source of material for armoring the riverward slopes of the levees. The access improvements would involve the replacement of two bridges, the upgrading of several existing access roads, and the construction of roads, to provide better heavy-vehicle access to the levees for operations and maintenance. Three groups of alternatives are considered in the draft supplement: a No Action Alternative, alternatives for the development of quarry sites or nonrock sources of riprap, and alternatives for access upgrade improvements. Three alternative quarry sites are evaluated: the Curtis Canyon, Flat Creek Talus, and Phillips Ridge sites. Five alternative nonrock riprap sources are considered: two manufactured alternatives (conventional concrete riprap and roller-compacted concrete riprap) and three in-place armoring alternatives (roller-compacted concrete, conventional concrete, and shotcrete). Fourteen locations for access improvements are considered: six locations for the construction of ten new emergency access road segments, and eight locations in which 13 existing road segments would be improved. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Because the present quarries at the confluence of the Snake and Gros Ventre rivers are no longer capable of supplying rock of sufficient quantity and quality, a new quarry is required. Currently, access to the levee system for project operations and maintenance is inadequate, as access points from public roads are limited and the existing road cannot support heavy equipment. As a result, routine and emergency project operations are threatened. The proposed access improvements would eliminate these problems. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Depending on the alternative site selected, development of a new quarry could disrupt elk habitat, camping, and visual resources on popular travel routes; in addition, quarry operations at all three potential sites would conflict with established national forest land uses and would require an amendment to the Bridger-Teton National Forest Plan. The nonrock alternatives would be less natural in appearance than rock riprap, and the smoother channel provided by the in-place armoring methods would increase river velocities and thus contribute to erosion downstream. The in-place armoring would also generally supply less near-shore fish habitat. Construction of the new access routes would require ground disturbance and vegetation removal, and upgrading the existing routes would involve disruption of nearby roads, but these effects would be temporary.

Preparation date: July 15, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FLOOD CONTROL, MISSISSIPPI RIVER AND TRIBUTARIES, YAZOO RIVER BASIN, MISSISSIPPI: UPPER YAZOO PROJECTS REFORMULATION STUDY (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF SEPTEMBER 1975). AN - 36414754; 4214 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of flood control projects in the remaining unconstructed segment of the Upper Yazoo Projects (UYP) area of the Yazoo Basin in Mississippi are being reformulated. The UYP study area encompasses 2,300 square miles of drainage in Carroll, Coahoma, Grenada, Leflore, Holmes, Humphreys, Panola, Quitman, Sunflower, Tallahatchie, Tunica, and Yazoo counties. Seven alternatives for completion of UYP construction, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft supplemental EIS. The recommended plan (Alternative 5, NED Plan) would include 130.3 miles of channel enlargement on the Yazoo-Tallahatchie-Coldwater river system from Mayday to Darling. The channel would have a maximum width of 150 feet below Greenwood, and would taper to 75 feet at its upper end. Some 47 water control structures, 52 confined disposal facilities, and a grade control structure on Tillatoba Creek and Panola-Quitman Floodway would be built. Some 12 water control structures and 48 confined disposal facilities would be modified and operated to reduce adverse impacts to waterfowl. To compensate fully for remaining losses from completed and proposed construction, approximately 16,250 acres of frequently flooded agricultural land would be acquired in fee title and reforested, 750 acres of moist soil management areas would be developed, and excess waterfowl benefits from the Upper Steele Bayou Project would be credited. The estimated cost of the recommended plan, including mitigation, is about $1.77 million, and the benefit-cost ratio is 1.4. Construction would be completed in the year 2000. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Flooding in the UYP area is significant: 22 towns and cities and approximately 679,000 acres of farmland are subject to flooding; damages total over $18 million annually. The recommended plan would afford substantial flood protection through the improvement of channel conveyance to 150 percent of current capacity and the construction of flood control structures, and would fully compensate for all unavoidable losses concurrently with project construction. Features of the recommended plan would reduce levee maintenance requirements and sediment inflow while providing improved habitat for fish and wildlife. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: All of the structural alternatives would cause significant adverse impacts to terrestrial, wetland, waterfowl, and aquatic resources; such impacts have already occurred from similar projects in the study area. Under the recommended plan, 656 acres of bottomland hardwoods and 1,803 acres of farmed wetlands would be destroyed. The reduction in flooding would result in the loss of 21,527 acres of waterfowl foraging habitat.

Preparation date: July 14, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - MINNESOTA TRUNK HIGHWAY 212 FROM COLOGNE TO INTERSTATE 494, CARVER AND HENNEPIN COUNTIES, MINNESOTA. AN - 36405603; 4190 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a new Trunk Highway (TH) 212 expressway/freeway from the existing four-lane section east of Cologne in Carver County, Minnesota, to the TH 5/Interstate 494 (I-494) interchange in Eden Prairie, located in Hennepin County, is proposed. The 18-mile divided highway would extend across the southwestern portion of the Twin Cities metropolitan area. In its eastern segment, between Eden Prairie and Chaska Township, the highway would be built as a freeway on a new alignment, and would follow a southwesterly route through the cities of Chanhassen and Chaska. In its western segment, between Chaska Township and Cologne, the highway would be built as a four-lane, divided expressway with at-grade intersections and would follow the existing TH 212 alignment in Dahlgren Township. Five build alternatives and a No-Build Alternative were considered in the draft EIS of March 1990. The five build alternatives consist of combinations of five corridor alignments, or options, in the eastern segment of the study area, and the existing alignment in the western segment. The five eastern-segment corridor options are (1) a North Lake Riley alignment north of Lake Riley between the Chaska corporate limit and County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 4; (2) a South Lake Riley alignment south of Lake Riley between the Chaska corporate limit and CSAH 4; (3) a Mitchell Lake alignment along TH 5 and west of Mitchell Lake, which would tie into the North Lake Riley alignment; (4) a residential alignment along TH 5 and east of the C&NW Railroad, between CSAH 4 and the I-494/TH 5 interchange; and (5) a System D alignment south of TH 5 along the west-southwest diagonal, between CSAH 4 and the I-494/TH 5 interchange. The preferred alternative (Alternative 2) would follow the western, North Lake Riley, and residential alignments. Under this alternative, the highway would be a basic six-lane freeway between Mitchell Road and I-494 along TH 5, with access interchanges at Mitchell Road and Prairie Center Drive; a four-lane freeway between TH 41 and Mitchell Road, with access interchanges at TH 41, CSAH 17, TH 101, Dell Road, and CSAH 4; a four-lane expressway or freeway west of TH 41 in Chaska Township, with access at Engler Boulevard and the existing TH 212; and a four-lane expressway between Chaska Township and Cologne, with limited at-grade access. The estimated construction costs for the preferred alternative are $112 million. This final EIS is presented in abbreviated format and contains corrections and revisions to the draft EIS as well as public comments and agency responses. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The facility would provide for the safe, efficient movement of people and goods between the Twin Cities metropolitan area and western Minnesota. It would accommodate the transportation needs resulting from the planned population and employment growth in the southwest portion of the metropolitan area. Each build alternative would have an accident rate that is approximately 50 percent lower than that of the existing TH 212. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would displace 54 acres of wetland, the majority of which is shallow marsh habitat; approximately 150 acres of forested deer habitat; approximately 43 acres of floodplain; 510 acres of prime farmland; 15 businesses; and 79 residential units. Several archaeological and historic sites eligible or potentially eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places would lie within the rights-of-way. Facility-generated noise levels for hundreds of homes during the night and nearly 100 homes during the day would exceed state standards. LEGAL MANDATES: Department of Transportation Act of 1966, as amended (49 U.S.C. 1651 et seq.), Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.), National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended (16 U.S.C. 470 et seq.), and Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (42 U.S.C. 4601).

AN - 36398623; 4219 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of 25.3 miles of protective beach along the northeastern coast of South Carolina in Horry and Georgetown counties is proposed. The project area encompasses three separate reaches within the Grand Strand area: North Myrtle Beach, Myrtle Beach, and Surfside Beach/Garden City. The project would protect the beaches and beachfront developments from normal erosion and from abnormal tides resulting from winter storms and hurricanes, such as Hurricane Hugo, which caused extensive erosion and property damage in September 1989. The initial construction would involve building a protective berm to a height of ten feet national geodetic vertical datum and a top width of 20 feet. Beach nourishment would be required once every eight years. All initial-construction and nourishment material would come from offshore borrow areas. In North Myrtle Beach, 8.6 miles of beach would be restored from Hog Inlet to White Paint Swash near South 48th Avenue. Initial construction would place 2.2 million cubic yards (cy) of sand on the beach. Periodic nourishment would require about 440,000 cy of sand. In Myrtle Beach, 9.0 miles of beach would be restored from North 82nd Avenue to Midway Swash near 29th Avenue. Initial construction would place 1.83 million cy of sand on the beach. Periodic nourishment would require about 440,000 cy of sand. In Garden City/Surfside Beach, 7.7 miles of beach would be restored from near Myrtle Beach State Park to approximately 1.2 miles south of the Georgetown/Horry county line. Initial construction would place 1.1 million cy of sand on the beach. Periodic nourishment would require about 360,000 cy of sand. The proposed action is the only action alternative considered in this final EIS; a No Action Alternative is also considered for comparison purposes. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide storm protection for valuable beachfront property and help ensure the viability of the area's tourist-oriented economy. In 1991, tourism generated approximately $2.1 billion in the Grand Strand area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Hopper dredging would temporarily increase turbidities in the immediate vicinity of both the offshore sites being dredged and the beaches where the material was being placed. The dredging could also degrade water quality, and would destroy benthic organisms that were picked up and pumped to the beach. Placement of sand on tidal and subtidal beaches would smother some organisms inhabiting the beach. The dredging equipment would increase noise in and temporarily degrade the aesthetic values of the area. LEGAL MANDATES: Water Resources Development Act of 1990.

Removal residence of (super 137) Cs between May 1986 and March 1988 averaged 150 days in the epilimnion and 280 days in the hypolimnion. (super 137) Cs accumulated in the hypolimnion during stratification and its scavenging from there into the sediments was the rate-limiting step of removing the isotope from the water column. Scavenging by settling particles was the main removal process of this isotope in epilimnion and hypolimnion. Postdepositional mobility of (super 137) Cs and natural (super 210) Pb in sediments is established.

AN - 36410979; 4070 AB - PURPOSE: The disposal of excess property made available by the closure of Fort Ord, with the retention of the U.S. Army Reserve Center and establishment of a Presidio of Monterey (POM) annex at Fort Ord, is proposed. Fort Ord is an Army installation occupying approximately 28,000 acres adjacent to Monterey Bay in northern Monterey County, California, approximately 100 miles south of San Francisco. Under the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission's 1991 recommendation, the installation would be closed and the 7th Infantry Division (Light) (IDL) would be relocated to Fort Lewis, Washington. Approximately 95 percent of the installation (26,500 acres) would be available for disposal. There is no time limit for the disposal of excess Fort Ord land. As the 7th IDL realigns from Fort Ord, the Army would assign structures, utilities, and operation and maintenance systems caretaker status until property disposal decisions were implemented. If environmental restoration of certain contaminated sites was not accelerated, the Army could retain caretaker status for segments of the lands remaining outside the POM annex and reserve center until restoration was complete. The proposed Army action considered includes the establishment of an approximately 1,500-acre POM annex to provide operations support to the military services remaining in the Monterey area; the retention at Ford Ord of the 12-acre reserve center complex, located at Imjin Gate near Reservation Road, to support local reserve units; and the transfer of approximately 23,500 acres to federal, state, and local agencies at fair market value. The remaining excess land (approximately 3,000 acres) would be sold to private entities without the Army's determining its future use. Under this proposal, approximately 14 percent of the undeveloped land would be developed, and the build-out population would total approximately 22,800. The revised Alternative 6R is the preferred reuse alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The sale of the excess land to private interests would add the land to the state and local tax base. Economic activity would increase as a result of hazardous and toxic waste remediation actions, unexploded ordnance disposal, and infrastructure modifications. The proposed POM annex would employ approximately 1,000 civilian employees. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The disposal and reuse actions would result in impacts to threatened and endangered plant and wildlife species and habitat, soil resources, historic structures, the infrastructure (from reduced maintenance and the need for expansion), public health (from reduced security), Monterey Bay communities' social and economic conditions, visual resources, and air quality. In addition, proposed development would impact floodplains, increase runoff to surface waters, expose additional people and property to a seismically active area, eliminate a large tract of open space, and create substantial congestion on Fort Ord roadways. The disposal of large areas of land could temporarily saturate some segments of the local real estate market and reduce sales prices; cause the loss to local schools of land currently leased from the Army; increase the demand for some municipal services; and result in the loss of federal protection for biological and cultural resources.

The material is presented in two chapters and a comprehensive example. Chapter 1 presents introductory material necessary for an understanding of the theory, assumptions, equations and numerical methods incorporated into HEC-1 for kinematic wave flood routing. The physical processes of the urban runoff and Streamflow routing are discussed briefly and related to the kinematic wave capabilities in HEC-1. Chapter 2 explains methods of applying kinematic wave routing techniques using HEC-1. Data requirements along with specific methods of applying kinematic wave routing techniques to runoff problems in urban hydrology are discussed. The chapters have been prepared so the user can either read one or both. A user interested only in the theory, or only in application procedures, can read the appropriate chapter.

AN - 36397895; 4137 AB - PURPOSE: The establishment of standard project flood protection along the Arkansas and Walnut rivers in Arkansas City, Kansas, is proposed. The project would extend, raise, and strengthen the existing levee and widen the lower Walnut River to a 350-foot-bottom-width channel for about a two-mile reach. This draft supplement to the final EIS of April 1985 assesses the impacts of some proposed changes to the design of the original project that was recommended for authorization in the final EIS. The levee alignment along the two rivers would generally follow the authorized project alignment, with minor corrections. The most significant deviation would occur immediately south of the Total Petroleum Refinery, where an additional 600 feet of levee would be added to avoid disturbing petroleum products. The Walnut River channel improvement would also closely follow the authorized alignment except in one portion where the alignment would shift in order to avoid impacting existing refinery tanks, access ramps, ponds, and utilities. In this section, three narrow berms would be constructed along the west bank of the river's natural channel; the berms would cover approximately 2.5 acres of channel bottom. Finally, Arkansas City has proposed the integration of the levee project with a state highway project that would route north-south truck traffic to the east of the city through the Walnut River floodplain. By using the highway embankment as part of the levee system, the city would reduce real estate and earthen fill requirements while also expanding the area of flood protection provided by the project. The authorized project would have provided protection as far north as the C Street Canal; the highway embankment would extend the flood protection area well north of the canal. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The minor changes in levee alignment and the integration of the levee system with the proposed new highway would reduce project costs and minimize social impacts to property. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Environmental losses from the authorized project would include 35 acres of bottomland forest, 60 acres of grassland, 91 acres of farmland, 40 acres of aquatic habitat, and 2.3 acres of wetlands. In certain sections, the proposed levee would encroach on solid waste dumps and other sites contaminated with hazardous wastes. Extraction of fill material from the borrow sites would impact approximately 70 acres of land planted with winter wheat.

Preparation date: June 28, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - LAKE ARTERIAL EXTENSION (STATE TRUNK HIGHWAY 31-LAYTON AVENUE), KENOSHA, RACINE, AND MILWAUKEE COUNTIES, WISCONSIN. AN - 36412219; 4129 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a 21-mile, north-south arterial highway extending from the southern Milwaukee, Wisconsin, metropolitan area to communities in Milwaukee, Racine, and Kenosha counties is proposed. The northern project limit is in the city of Cudahy at Layton Avenue; this also serves as the southern terminus of an ongoing construction project referred to as the Lake Parkway. The southern project limit is in Kenosha County near the intersection of State Trunk Highway 31 and County Trunk Highway ""A.'' Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the build alternatives, a new arterial with either two or three 12-foot-wide driving lanes in each direction separated by a median would be built. In the northern portion of the project corridor, under Alternative 2, the highway would generally follow alongside the Chicago & North Western Railroad, with three routing variations occurring within an environmentally sensitive area. In the southern portion of the corridor, the alignment would follow the west side of the railroad tracks for half of the way and the east side of the tracks for the rest of the way to the southern terminus. Under Alternative 3, two existing suburban arterials would be upgraded in the northern portion of the corridor (Layton and Howell avenues) from two to three lanes in each direction. Each street's existing auxiliary lane would be widened to preserve the street's 28-foot-wide median. In the southern portion of the corridor, under Alternative 3, the highway would have the same alignment as Alternative 2. Under both alternatives, the highway would include a 50-foot-wide corridor of additional right-of-way for possible future mass transit use. The estimated costs of the build alternatives range from $120 million to $160 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed highway would reduce traffic congestion on local roads. Currently, the area's major north-south route is I-94; getting to this facility requires making east-west trips, which increases overall trip mileage and duration. The proposed highway would also encourage a more focused and orderly land development pattern in the project corridor. Without this development pattern, I-94 would remain the key focus for development, which would result in an inefficient use of land and infrastructure and would add to traffic control and safety problems. This would hamper the city of Racine's ability to attract and retain businesses and residents, and would hinder efficient access to other communities, including Oak Creek, Caledonia, and Mount Pleasant. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the proposed highway would involve converting up to 884 acres to highway use. Lost acreage would include up to 88 acres of wetlands, 633 acres of cropland and pasture, and 22 acres of woodlands. In addition, up to 64 residences and 12 businesses would be displaced, and three historic sites and five archaeological sites would be adversely affected. These losses and displacements would be slightly less severe if acreage were not set aside for the optional mass transit right-of-way. Nine streams would be crossed under both build allternatives. In addition, under Alternative 2, approximately five acres of proposed parkland in Oak Creek would be acquired.

AN - 36410021; 4138 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of protective beach along a 3.5-mile stretch of shoreline on a narrow barrier island in New Hanover County, North Carolina, is proposed. The project area extends 18,000 feet, from the southern town limits of Carolina Beach on the north to the northern property limits of the Fort Fisher National Historic Site on the south, and includes the town of Kure Beach and the unincorporated communities of Hanby Beach and Wilmington Beach. A continuous sand beach fronts the ocean side of the narrow peninsula separating the Lower Cape Fear River from the Atlantic Ocean. The shoreline has a north-northeast, south-southwest alignment. The proposed construction would protect the beaches and beachfront developments from normal erosion and from abnormal tides resulting from winter storms and hurricanes. Four alternatives involving berms and dunes of various dimensions, as well as a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative, the project would consist of a main beach-fill section with a 25-foot-wide crest dune having an elevation of 13.5 feet national geodetic vertical datum (NGVD), fronted by a 50-foot-wide storm berm with an elevation of 9 feet NGVD. The transition between the dune and berm would have a slope of 1 to 10 with an approximate width of 45 feet. Two borrow sites located approximately one to two miles offshore in the Atlantic Ocean would serve as the source of beach fill. The dune would be vegetated with dune grasses, primarily American beach grass and sea oats. Construction would take approximately eight months, from November 15 to July 31. The initial fill and the first advanced maintenance fill would require approximately 3.3 million cubic yards (cy) of material. The renourishment of beach fill would require 766,000 cy of material every three years. The minimum benefit-cost ratio is 1.4. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposal would reduce the adverse effects of hurricane waves and flooding, control erosion to arrest shoreline recession, improve the appearance and recreational quality of the beach, and provide protection to two threatened species (the loggerhead and green sea turtles). NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The dredging at offshore sites would temporarily increase turbidity and degrade water quality, and would also destroy benthic organisms that were picked up and pumped to the beach. The project could have adverse impacts on coquina rock outcrops located at its southern terminus.

Preparation date: June 15, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SR 167 CORRIDOR ADOPTION, PUYALLUP TO PROPOSED SR 509, CITIES OF PUYALLUP, FIFE, AND TACOMA, PIERCE COUNTY, WASHINGTON. AN - 36408089; 4127 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of the final section of the State Route (SR) 167 freeway between SR 161 (Meridian Street North) in Puyallup, Washington, and the planned SR 509 freeway (the East-West Road alignment) in Tacoma, a distance of approximately six miles, is proposed. An SR 167 interchange with Interstate 5 (I-5) would be included in the project. The new freeway would replace the existing SR 167 arterial route (via Meridian Street North and River Road) between Puyallup and the I-5 Bay Street interchange. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under Alternative 1, the southernmost of the three build alternative alignments, the freeway would be approximately 6.2 miles long and run parallel to the Puyallup River for a portion of its length. Grade-separated interchanges would be located at I-5, 54th Avenue East, 70th Avenue East, and Meridian Street North; other grade separations would be located at Frank Albert Road and 82nd Avenue East. Access to SR 509 would be through at-grade intersections of Port of Tacoma Road with the SR 509 frontage roads. The corridor would begin north of the proposed SR 509 facility on Port of Tacoma Road. It would then proceed south over SR 509, the Pacific Highway, I-5, 20th Street East, and the Union Pacific Railroad to the Puyallup River, and would then parallel the river to Frank Albert Road. From there it would curve east to a point about midway between the river and the railroad; it would then head southeasterly up the river valley and terminate at the SR 161/167 interchange in North Puyallup. Under Alternatives 2 and 3, the freeway would be 6.0 and 5.7 miles long, respectively, and follow a common alignment throughout most of their proposed length. Each would provide interchanges with the proposed SR 509, 54th Avenue East, I-5, Valley Avenue East, and Meridian Street North. Under Alternative 2, the freeway would begin at the proposed SR 509 midway between Alexander Avenue and Marshall Avenue. It would proceed east over 54th Avenue East, curve to the southeast, cross over the Pacific Highway (SR 99), I-5, and 70th Avenue East, and proceed to 82nd Avenue East. At 82nd Avenue East, it would curve south to Valley Avenue and the railroad, which it would overcross. It would then curve to the southeast, and would terminate at the SR 161/167 interchange. Under Alternative 3, the freeway would begin at the proposed SR 509 near Taylor Way. It would proceed south and southeasterly with structures over 8th Street East, 12th Street East, and the Pacific Highway (SR 99), where it would join the Alternative 2 alignment. All three alternatives would share a common alignment for approximately two miles until terminating at the SR 161/167 interchange in North Puyallup. The estimated costs of the three build alternatives are $111 million, $119.2 million, and $111.2 million, respectively. [NOTE: This report is "Tier 1" of a tiered document. More detailed studies and analyses will be conducted in the future. Prior to any construction activities, a Tier II or supplemental EIS will be completed.] POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed highway would reduce traffic congestion on local roads and provide a critical connecting link in the regional freeway system. It would connect the Puyallup termini of the existing SR 167, SR 410, and SR 512 freeways to the I-5 corridor, the port of Tacoma, and the proposed SR 509 expressway. The latter would provide connections to the Tacoma central business district and west Federal Way. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed highway would displace up to 101 residences and 12 businesses. Under Alternative 1, congestion would increase on surface streets north and south of I-5 in the vicinity of Port of Tacoma Road due to the elimination of the Port of Tacoma overpass of I-5 for local traffic circulation. Local trips would be diverted to already congested routes (the Pacific Highway, 54th Avenue East, and 20th Street East). Under all three of the alternatives, the conversion of land from agricultural to commercial uses would be accelerated, especially in the vicinity of interchanges. Project construction has the potential for direct water quality impacts to two creeks that are important fisheries resources for the Puyallup Tribe. Up to 80 acres of wetlands would be adversely affected and up to 11 acres of floodplain would be filled; as many as 93 residences and 4 businesses would experience a significant increase in noise levels. Under all three of the alternatives, the disturbance of undocumented archaeological sites could take place.

Preparation date: June 15, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - BLACKSBURG/ROANOKE CONNECTOR, MONTGOMERY COUNTY, VIRGINIA. AN - 36414510; 4125 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a new roadway in Montgomery County, Virginia, is proposed to provide a direct link between Blacksburg and Roanoke and to relieve traffic congestion along Route 460 between Blacksburg and Interstate 81 (I-81). The facility would follow a new alignment from the new Route 460 Bypass to I-81. It would be constructed within a 180-foot right-of-way, and would include four 12-foot travel lanes, a 40-foot graded median, and 12- to 15-foot shoulders with appropriately sized drainage ditches. Three build alternatives (Alternatives 6, 7, and 10) are considered in this final EIS. Under Alternative 6 (the selected alternative), the roadway would extend 5.0 miles through the project area. It would begin 0.32 miles southeast of South Main Street at the new Route 460 Bypass and continue to I-81, 2.3 miles northeast of the intersection of Routes 11/460 and I-81. It would then span the Ellett Valley, interchange with Route 723, enter the mountainous region adjacent to and generally paralleling Route 641, and connect to I-81 north of the Route 641 underpass. Under Alternative 7, the roadway would extend 7.8 miles. It would also begin 0.32 miles southeast of South Main Street at the new Route 460 Bypass and continue to I-81, 2.42 miles southwest of the Route 603 interchange. It would span Route 723, follow the Route 603 corridor toward the Roanoke Valley, curve to the south to cross Route 603 and the North Fork Roanoke River, run through Pedlar Hills, and intersect with I-81 southwest of the Route 603 interchange. An interchange would connect the roadway with Route 723 in the Ellett Valley. Under Alternative 10, the roadway would extend 9.9 miles. It would begin at the same point as under Alternatives 6 and 7 and continue to the I-81 interchange with Route 603. It would follow the same alignment as under Alternative 7, except that it would continue to follow the Route 603 corridor along the North Fork Roanoke River, connecting to I-81 at the existing interchange with Route 603. Interchanges would also connect the roadway with Route 723 in Ellett Valley, Route 647 near Ironto, and Route 603 west of I-81. The estimated costs of Alternatives 6, 7, and 10 are $80.0 million, $116.0 million, and $138.8 million, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In addition to providing a direct link between Blacksburg and Roanoke, and relieving traffic congestion between Blacksburg and I-81 along the Route 460 corridor, the roadway would serve as a test facility for the Intelligent Vehicle/Highway System ""smart highway'' technology. The Montgomery County area offers unique qualities insofar as its varying terrain and extremes of weather present an opportunity to test developing technology under adverse conditions. Under the proposed action, truck traffic would be removed from the congested commercial area along Route 460, and access control on the new roadway would prevent commercial development along, and resulting congestion on, this facility. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the selected alternative, 253 acres would be converted to highway use, rights-of-way requirements would displace 2 families, and 12 streams would be crossed. Noise levels would be increased at various locations along the new highway.

Preparation date: June 11, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NEW HAMPSHIRE ROUTE 16/US ROUTE 302 IMPROVEMENTS, CARROLL COUNTY, NEW HAMPSHIRE. AN - 36410137; 4117 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of New Hampshire (NH) Route 16 and US 302 through the villages of Conway and North Conway, New Hampshire, is proposed. These improvements are considered necessary to solve major traffic congestion and safety problems along this corridor, between the Madison/Albany town line to the south and the Conway/Bartlett town line to the north. In addition to serving as a regional highway, the Route 16/302 corridor serves as the primary roadway for local traffic in and through Conway and North Conway. Over the last 25 years, a great deal of tourism-related development has occurred in the Mount Washington Valley, primarily in the Route 16/302 corridor. In addition to a No-Build Alternative and a number of Transportation Systems Management (TSM) and Transportation Demand Management alternatives, a total of 14 build alternatives are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 9A) would involve the phased construction of a two-lane bypass south and east of Conway that would be approximately 12 miles long; the bypass would extend east of the Mineral Spring Wetland System and west of Pudding Pond. This alternative would also provide for the upgrading of Route 16/302 within Conway in the vicinity of Mountain Valley Mall and Settlers Green; consolidated curb cuts from the intersection of Routes 16 /302 to Artist Falls Road; minor rehabilitation of US 302 from NH Route 113 to Route 16 to facilitate construction of the bypass; and some TSM improvements. In addition, all local roads upgraded as part of the project would have adequate shoulders that would function as bicycle ways. The estimated construction costs of the preferred alternative are $69.9 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed bypass would relieve traffic congestion and improve safety along the Route 16/302 corridor, and improve local travel and regional access to the northern part of the state. Traffic congestion would diminish within the two villages, enhancing their historic character. Emergency vehicle access would improve. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would result in the displacement of 52 residences and 2 businesses; the loss of 322.1 total acres, including 8.4 acres of farmland and 27.4 acres of wetlands; the relocation of approximately 2,400 linear feet of a brook; the disturbance of 2 historic properties and 3 historic districts; and the acquisition of approximately 15.3 acres of parkland, causing some fragmentation of habitat, truncation of recreational trails, loss of public access to undeveloped land, and loss of aesthetic qualities.

Preparation date: June 10, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CORRIDOR L (US 19), NICHOLAS COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL TO I-79, NICHOLAS AND BRAXTON COUNTIES, WEST VIRGINIA. AN - 36405626; 4123 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of a 24-mile segment of US 19 in West Virginia, from just north of Nicholas County High School near Summersville to an intersection with Interstate 79 (I-79) in Braxton County, is proposed. The segment is part of Appalachian Corridor L, an indefinite corridor connecting I-77 at Beckley with I-79 at Sutton, approximately 70 miles away. The proposed reconstruction primarily involves the expansion of the existing right-of-way to allow for the addition of two lanes and a median strip, either on the east or west side of the existing two-lane US 19. While all intersections would likely be at-grade, two potential interchanges, one at West Virginia Route 55 near the town of Muddlety and the other at West Virginia Route 82/Nicholas County 1 near the town of Birch River, are under consideration. In some mountain areas, an additional climbing lane would be added; three segments would require additional right-of-way. In addition to the No-Build Alternative, three build alternatives for the southern section of the corridor, and four for the northern section, are considered in this draft EIS. The build alternatives differ from one another primarily in regard to the size of the median proposed and the use of the east or west side of US 19 for the additional two lanes. Estimated construction costs range from $60.6 million to $120.4 million, depending on the alternative selected. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would relieve traffic congestion, improve safety, and satisfy the 2012 design-year traffic flow along US 19. By completing the Corridor L construction to Summersville from I-79, the project would improve access to the lake and woodland recreation areas of central West Virginia, plus the commercial and industrial capabilities of the Summersville region. Construction would generate up to 6,257 new jobs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would displace up to ten residences and one business, and up to 7.6 acres of wetlands would be impacted. In addition, up to four cemeteries could be affected by dislocations or access restrictions. Many acres of wildlife habitat would be converted to highway use. Large hillside cuts would detract from the scenic quality of the area.

Preparation date: June 10, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - PROPOSED I-495 INTERCHANGE PROJECT, CRANE MEADOW ROAD, MARLBOROUGH AND SOUTHBOROUGH, MASSACHUSETTS. AN - 36414593; 4114 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a new interchange along I-495 at the Marlborough /Southborough corporate boundary in Massachusetts is proposed. The proposed interchange would be constructed between the Route 9 and Route 20 interchanges (approximately one mile south of the Route 20 interchange) and would provide access to Crane Meadow Road. It would relieve congestion on area arterials and other interchanges and improve access to the commercial and industrial areas between Routes 9 and 20 in west Marlborough. In addition to the No Action Alternative, three major interchange alternatives are under consideration. The preferred alternative would consist of a full-service, diamond-type interchange providing access to the west, to Crane Meadow Road, but no access to the east. The configuration would consist of northbound and southbound off- and on-ramps terminating at an overpass and connector road extending to Crane Meadow Road. The connector road would have two westbound and two eastbound lanes. The ramps would each consist of one lane, with the northbound off-ramp widening to two lanes on its approach to a signalized intersection at the overpass, and the southbound on-ramp tapering from two lanes at the overpass to one lane where it merged with I-495. At Crane Meadow Road, the primary traffic movement would be to the right, onto Crane Meadow Road and Simarano Drive northbound. Crane Meadow Road from the south would meet the connector road at a T-intersection. The estimated construction cost of the preferred alternative is $5.8 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed interchange would improve access to the commercial and industrial area in west Marlborough and provide a stimulus for additional development in the area, resulting in 1.8 million square feet of new commercial space and 4,800 new secondary jobs. The interchange would provide for the safe and efficient movement of traffic volume through the year 2016 and, in so doing, would reduce traffic congestion on local roads and intersections. Air quality would improve at locations along Route 20 as a result of the diversion of trips to the new interchange. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would alter 0.91 acres of wetlands and more than 50 feet of bank, and would convert approximately 20 acres of wildlife habitat to highway use.

Preparation date: June 4, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NORTHWEST CONNECTOR, DOUGLAS COUNTY, NEBRASKA. AN - 15232269; 4116 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a four-lane, divided highway on a new alignment in the northwest section of the Omaha, Nebraska, metropolitan area is proposed. The proposed roadway would extend east and west for approximately two miles from 72nd Street to Blair High Road near I-680. The northwest section of the city currently has no major arterial roadway that provides east-west access. Two build alternatives, known as the 90th Street and Ida Street alignments, as well as a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Both build alternatives would involve construction of a controlled-access highway with a median, which could be used for a separate left-turn lane, and a bridge crossing Little Papillion Creek west of Wenninghoff Road. The build alternatives share a common route for 1.1 miles from 72nd Street to Wenninghoff Road, at which point they divide. The primary difference between the two alternatives is their point of intersection with Blair High Road. The 90th Street alignment, which is 1.9 miles long but has a 0.3-mile connector to Ida Street, would curve to the south as it approached Blair High Road and would then intersect it at 90th Street. The Ida Street alignment, which is 2.2 miles long, would intersect Blair High Road at the existing Ida Street intersection. The cost of the two alignments is estimated at $11 million and $12 million, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed connector would open up the northwest quadrant of the Omaha metropolitan area for commercial and residential development. Since most of the projected development would occur on agricultural lands, property values would increase. Construction of the connector would ease the traffic burden on existing residential streets; it is anticipated that the traffic volume on these streets will double by the year 2012. In addition to providing safer travel for motorists, the facility would provide improved access for police and emergency vehicles. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 100 acres of right-of-way land would be required to complete the project, and most of it would be prime farmland. Six jurisdictional wetlands have been identified in the project area. The 90th Street alignment would directly affect 2.71 acres of wetlands; the Ida Street alignment, 2.87 acres. The 90th Street alignment would require the relocation of one business; the Ida Street alignment would affect four businesses, with partial land acquisitions and site access impacts.

AN - 36405562; 4083 AB - PURPOSE: The development and operation of an open-pit vermiculite mine on a 139-acre site located in the Bitterroot National Forest on ABM Ridge in the Sapphire Mountains, approximately 11 miles east and slightly north of Hamilton in Ravalli County, Montana, is proposed by Stansbury Holdings Corporation (d b a Western Vermiculite Company). A portion of the permit area consists of unreclaimed land disturbed by previous mining activities. Elevations of the mine site and vicinity range from approximately 6,600 to 7,200 feet. Most of the surrounding area is forested. St. Clair Creek, the major drainage, lies approximately 200 feet in elevation below the lower limit of mine disturbance. Focal issues addressed in this document include those associated with wildlife; water quality and sedimentation; groundwater availability, levels, and flow; water use; wetlands; potential health risks related to actinolite fibers; and transportation impacts. Access to the project site would be provided from a Ravalli County highway via a private road and Forest Service roads. In addition to the mine, the project would include a concentrator, related surface facilities, and a haul road providing access to a host rock waste stockpile located approximately 0.75 miles from the mine site. At the waste stockpile, waste rock, magnetite ore, and host rock would be deposited. Construction of the mine and facilities would occur over one six-month construction season, after all necessary permits and approvals were obtained. The project would then operate for five to eight years, from May to October of each year, when access to the site would be feasible. Special mitigation measures would include road closures and the busing of employees to reduce wildlife impacts; specific measures to improve roads and control dust and noise; increased control and management of surface water quality; and measures to address the potential loss of wetlands due to decreased groundwater flow. In addition, an alternate water-use scenario could be implemented that would preclude the need to obtain surface water rights for the project. A reclamation plan would also be implemented. Three alternatives, including the proposed action (Alternative 1) and the No Action Alternative (Alternative 3), are considered in this final EIS. Alternative 2 (Stansbury's proposal with modifications) is the preferred alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Commercial mining and concentration of vermiculite ore would provide a source of textural materials for paints, insulation, plant growth promotion, and aggregate for certain plaster formulations. The project would employ up to 60 persons in mining and related operations, professional and administrative positions, and concentrate and waste rock haulage work. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Major areas of disturbance within the permit area would include the facility site on ABM Ridge, the waste stockpile, and areas affected by road construction and improvement. The migration of big game, particularly elk, would be affected by mining activities. Shallow groundwater would be encountered by mining activities, which could upset the hydrologic balance in the ABM Ridge area, potentially dewatering springs and wetlands east and southwest of the project site. A water management program would be implemented in order to prevent such dewatering from occurring. Stansbury's possible use of water from Prospect Spring for project activities would result in conflicts with other water rights holders in the Bitterroot Valley. Slight transportation impacts would result from traffic generated by the project.

Tagged adults (n=28) ranged from 544 mm to 871 mm fork length and 1,510 g to 7,125 g. Twenty-six tags were carried for 7-225 d. Most of the tagged sturgeons were relocated in the tidal portion of the river. Sturgeon that over-wintered in the upper tidal river near Trenton, New Jersey, began traveling upstream in late March to the nontidal river above Trenton where spawning presumably occurred from late March through April. After spawning, sturgeon traveled rapidly downstream into the tidal portion of the river near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where they remained through the end of May. Before the end of June, most sturgeon returned upstream and re-entered the upper tidal river near Trenton, where most apparently remained for the summer and winter. In general, the same pattern was apparent for both sexes. As a result of the intensive use of the river between Philadelphia to just above Trenton, any alterations or additional insults to the river should consider the impact on this endangered species.

The proposed facility would be built and operated by the Norfolk and Western Railway Company (N&W), a major rail carrier that currently transports coal to Hampton Roads from Virginia and West Virginia's coal mining areas. The facility would provide storage for coal destined for overseas markets. At present, export coal is held in rail cars awaiting vessel arrival at Lamberts Point and is then directly dumped into a collier. The proposed facility would reduce rail car turnaround time, allowing N&W to move more coal in fewer cars. The stored coal would be reclaimed by means of a bucket-wheel stacker/reclaimer and conveyed to load-out silos, from which it would then be transferred to unit trains for shipment. The facility would initially handle approximately 8 million gross tons (MGT) of coal annually; however, with upgrading it would eventually handle up to 40 MGT of coal annually and have a storage area of 6.8 million square feet, a capacity of 4 MGT, and a working capacity of 2.6 MGT. To attain these capacities, two concentric rail loops would be constructed so that two 220-car trains could be unloaded simultaneously while both trains remained clear of the main line. Additional construction would include a third contiguous loop to allow the loading of empty cars for movement to the Lamberts Point terminal. The project would include two tandem rotary dumpers and indexer systems, each capable of handling pairs of cars at a rate of up to 30 cycles per hour; rail-mounted stackers/reclaimers, each capable of handling 6,000 tons per hour; a system of conveyors to interconnect the dumpers, silos, stackers/reclaimers, and load-out silos; a storage pad 6,000 feet by 1,157 feet in size with a maximum storage capacity of 4 MGT; and various utilities, access roads, and support facilities. Four alternative sites plus a No Action Alternative are considered in this final EIS. The preferred alternative site (Alternative B) consists of approximately 1,609 acres located on the southeast side of US 460, roughly 1.23 miles southeast of the town of Windsor. The northeast boundary of this site is the existing N&W railroad line. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed storage facility would enhance the marketing of coal and its movement into export channels. U.S. coal producers would be able to achieve more uniform production because they would be able to stockpile their coal. This, along with the recent dredging of Hampton Roads channel to 50 feet, would allow U.S. coal to be delivered more economically. An enhanced competitive position for U.S. coal producers would enable the United States to increase its share of the international coal market. The applicant estimates that the proposed facility would yield an additional 2 MGT of coal for export by 1995. The project would require approximately 250 construction workers throughout a two-year period; ultimately 60 persons would be employed at the site once it became fully operational. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 56 acres of wetlands, 180 acres of mixed hardwood and pine forest habitat, and 311 acres of prime agricultural lands would be lost as a result of the construction and operation of the proposed facility. Furthermore, an additional 153 acres of wetlands would experience unquantifiable secondary losses. The clearing of vegetation would affect surface topography as well as wildlife habitat. Twelve persons who live within the project boundaries would be displaced. Coal dust produced from daily operations; storm water runoff; and dust suppression sprays flowing through the coal storage piles would degrade air and water quality.

AN - 36405660; 4115 AB - PURPOSE: The relocation of Trunk Highway (TH) 14 on a new alignment between Mankato and the east junction of TH 60 east of Eagle Lake in Blue Earth County, south-central Minnesota, is proposed. Alternatives considered in the draft EIS included the No Action Alternative, two-lane reconstruction on the existing alignment, and four-lane construction on a new alignment in the northern portion of the corridor. In this final EIS, the preferred alternative, four-lane construction on a new alignment, combines Alternative W and a modified Alternative D from the draft EIS. The proposed project, which would be approximately 7.4 miles long, would be a four-lane expressway facility except along its westerly two miles, which would be constructed to freeway standards. The project would begin at the junction of the North Mankato-Mankato Bypass and County Road 193 east of Mankato, extend approximately one mile before curving southward to skirt a major portion of a large wetland/upland complex, and then continue eastward across County State Aid Highway 3, the north edge of a wetland, and the DME Railroad tracks. It would then curve slightly to the north and east to avoid the city of Eagle Lake, intersect with a connection to Township Road 341, cross the Eagle Lake outlet, and continue to a terminus 0.9 miles east of the east junction of TH 60. The facility would have 12-foot-wide driving lanes and ten-foot-wide outside paved shoulders. An interchange would be built at the intersection of TH 14 and County Road 193 at the east edge of Mankato and the west end of the project. All other intersections would be at-grade, with left- and right-turn lanes provided. The facility would contain three entrances to the city of Eagle Lake, and eastbound and westbound bridges over the railroad west of Eagle Lake. The existing TH 14 from Mankato to Eagle Lake would remain in place as a county highway; east of Eagle Lake, the existing roadway would be obliterated. The estimated cost of the project, which would be phased over a two-year period, would be $16.47 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed highway would have a higher traffic capacity and provide a higher level of service and safety than the existing facility. It would ease local- and through-traffic movements, and would lower noise levels within the city of Eagle Lake. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way development would result in the degradation or loss of 24.7 acres of stream waterways and wetlands and the displacement of 170.9 acres of prime farmland. Approximately 9.6 acres of farmland would be triangulated, eight farmed parcels would be severed, and two residences or small businesses would be relocated. Noise levels near some farmsteads and homes along the new alignment would also increase.

This paper summarizes past efforts and current trends in suing digital terrain models and GIS to perform hydrologic analyses. Three methods of geographic information storage are discussed: raster or grid, triangulated irregular network, and contour-based line networks. The computational, geographic, and hydrologic aspects of each data-storage method are analyzed. The use of remotely sensed data in GIS and hydrologic modeling is reviewed. Lumped parameter, physics-based, and hybrid approaches to hydrologic modeling are discussed with respect to their geographic data inputs. Finally, several applications areas (e.g., floodplain hydrology and erosion prediction) for GIS hydrology are described. JF - Technical Papers.

The HEC-PRM represents the Columbia system as a link-node network and uses network-flow programming to optimize, in time and space, flow and storage in the system. The representation of operation goals in HEC-PRM is accomplished through flow, storage, and energy economic penalty functions. Operation purposes represented by penalty functions included hydropower, water supply, flood control, navigation, recreation, and anadromous fish. The application was based on fifty year period-of-record with a monthly time interval. The HEC data storage system, HEC-DSS, was utilized extensively for data management and analysis of results.

AN - 36399139; 4053 AB - PURPOSE: The expansion of US 10 in southern Waupaca County, Wisconsin, from a two-lane to a four-lane facility is proposed. The 15-mile project would extend from Anderson Road in Waupaca, 0.5 miles west of the State Trunk Highway (STH) 54/49 interchange, to Brown Road, two miles west of the village of Fremont. US 10 is a major east-west link across central Wisconsin serving commuter, commercial, and recreational traffic between the Stevens Point area to the west and the Fox River Valley to the east. Traffic along the project corridor is expected to increase about 50 percent by 2017, resulting in volumes of up to 18,600 vehicles per day. Traffic volumes already exceed safety thresholds for the highway, and accident and fatality rates exceed the statewide average. Several alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed build alternatives, the existing road would be upgraded to a four-lane, divided highway. Differences under the alternatives in their stipulations are as follows: the alignment location relative to the existing highway; the presence of a frontage road; the number of points accessible to US 10; and the number of residences and farms adversely affected by rights-of-way acquisition. The existing US 10 would be incorporated along most of the project corridor, either as two lanes of the new four-lane facility or as a frontage road adjacent to the four-lane facility for local access. Exceptions to this incorporation would occur along a 1.5-mile section at the proposed interchange with County Trunk Highway (CTH) ""X'' at Weyauwega and along a one-mile section at the proposed interchange with STH 49; in these areas the proposed alignment would be built at a new location. All driving lanes would be 12 feet wide, and the highway would be divided by a 60-foot median throughout most of the project corridor to provide an adequate and safe separation of opposing directions of traffic, adequate drainage, storage for vehicles (including trucks and school buses) at crossroad intersections, and storage for farm machinery in median openings. Between Anderson Road and CTH ""A,'' however, the median would be 30 feet wide. New interchanges are proposed for CTH ""X,'' STH 110, and STH 49. In general, existing access to US 10, including local roads, field entrances, and driveways, would be consolidated to control direct at-grade connections to the upgraded highway. At the eastern terminus of the project, the four-lane cross section would narrow to meet the existing two-lane cross section near Brown Road. Improvements to the existing road such as resurfacing, rehabilitation, or shoulder restoration would be accomplished within the existing highway right-of-way. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, through traffic would be allowed to operate at or near the 55-mph speed limit under peak traffic volume conditions; would reduce accidents; and the need to convert the facility to freeway standards would be precluded in the foreseeable future. The annual savings resulting from the improved level of service would total up to $2 million for truck users. The highway improvement would also result in an increase in local business sales, an increase in spendable personal income (of up to $116 million between the years 1990 and 2020), the creation of jobs, and a reduction in travel time for local residents. Improved access to recreational and related resources would benefit tourism and increase spending by out-of-state visitors. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would displace up to 238 acres. Up to 58 acres of wetland and 17 acres of woodland would be required for widening the existing highway and constructing new interchanges. Up to 141 acres of farmland from 32 farming operations would be displaced. The project would require a maximum of 20 residential and 10 business relocations. Other impacts would include wildlife habitat loss, potential erosion and sedimentation during construction, the loss of prime soils, the potential discovery of unknown underground storage tanks, noise impacts to adjacent residences, and impacts to the habitat of two state-listed threatened turtle species.

AN - 36407605; 3984 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of tests and collection of data in support of missile research, development, and operational missions, including missions associated with the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), on Kwajalein Atoll within the Republic of the Marshall Islands is proposed. Kwajalein Atoll is a crescent-shaped coral reef that encloses the world's largest lagoon. The land area of the atoll is 5.6 square miles. The proposed action outlined in the final EIS of October 1989 provided for test range facilities and support services for continuing research, development, operational launch missions, operational space track missions, and SDI activities. Early in 1991, President Bush announced a refocusing of the SDI program, from its early emphasis on defending against mass nuclear attack from a single source, to protection against limited ballistic missile strikes regardless of their source. The limited-strike program, known as Global Protection against Limited Strikes (GPALS), is designed to protect the U.S., our forces overseas, and our allies and friends abroad. GPALS has three segments: global missile defense (GMD), national missile defense (NMD), and theater missile defense (TMD). Congress, in addition to enacting the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Years 1991 and 1992, enacted the Missile Defense Act of 1991 with the following goals: "(1) [to] deploy an ABM system, including one or an adequate number of ABM sites and space-based sensors, that is capable of providing a highly efficient defense of the United States against limited attacks of ballistic missiles; (2) [to] maintain strategic stability; and (3) [to] provide a highly effective TMD system to forward-deployed and expeditionary elements of the Armed Forces of the United States and to friends and allies of the United States." This draft supplement to the final EIS outlines a proposed action in support of the Missile Defense Act of 1991, plus another proposed action, both requiring environmental analysis. The action supporting the Missile Defense Act involves increased testing of advanced systems for defending against limited attacks of ballistic missiles, and related support activities. Four alternatives, each proposing a distinct level of testing and development activity, are considered in the draft supplement. Under the preferred alternative, an intermediate level of activity is proposed. Launches would be made from Meck, Omelek, and Illeginni islands; as a result, dredging and quarrying for shoreline protection and new facilities would be required. Meck Island would be expanded by approximately 15 acres to accommodate new launch facilities. Illeginni launch facilities would be reconstructed, and some existing silos on Meck and Illeginni could be destroyed. The other proposed action involves the adoption of locally developed environmental guidelines and procedures to replace the U.S.-based standards currently in place. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed changes in missile-testing activities are a response to changing U.S. defense needs following the relaxation of East-West tensions. The proposed new environmental regulations would provide higher levels of protection of air and water quality, wildlife resources, and soils. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: With an intermediate level of activity, the nonindigenous island population would increase by approximately 1,675 persons (or 52 percent), placing additional stress on housing and on social and infrastructural resources (e.g., the capacity of the Kwajalein wastewater treatment plant would be exceeded). A proposed explosive ordnance pit on Ennugarret Island would substantially increase noise levels, destroy a small habitat area inhabited by seabirds and coconut crabs, and degrade the aesthetic quality of the island. The expansion of Meck Island would have an adverse effect on coral, fish, and invertebrates. The construction of revetments on a sandy beach on Illeginni Island could harm the hawksbill turtle, an endangered species. Construction and renovation activities on the islands could adversely affect historic and prehistoric sites. Finally, the levels of hazardous wastes generated on the islands would increase substantially. LEGAL MANDATES: Missile Defense Act of 1991.

AN - 36414127; 4066 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a 120-acre, 1,400-berth marina, and concurrent residential development of the marina area, at Ewa Beach on the Island of Oahu, Hawaii, is proposed by HASEKO (Ewa), Inc. Alternatives to this plan include the construction of a 70-acre, 800-berth marina, and residential development of the area without the marina. In addition to the marina, the project would include an entrance channel; 400-foot-long protective jetties on either side of the entrance channel; internal wave absorbers; boat launching ramps; boat haul-out facilities; bulkheads; storm drain structures; navigational aids; and a bridge to an island that would be created at the eastern end of the marina. Some 300,000 cubic yards of coralline material and sand dredged during the construction of the entrance channel would be disposed of at the EPA's South Oahu Dredged Material Ocean Disposal Site. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Marina construction at this location would be consistent with current state and local land use plans and coastal zone management policies. The project would help meet the high demand for berth space, and would generate more ocean-related commercial development in the area. Shoreline access for the public would be enhanced. In addition, the marina would become an estuarine environment, providing habitat diversity for fish and invertebrates. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: All of the alternatives would require land clearing, which would include the removal of existing sugarcane and Kiawe forest plant communities. Development of the Ewa plain area would cause the plain to cease functioning as a flood storage basin, resulting in increased runoff to the ocean. Anticipated population growth resulting from the proposed development would increase demand for utilities and services. A limestone caprock aquifer would be altered, reducing groundwater levels. Construction activities would generate substantial fugitive dust emissions, and would increase water turbidity and destroy marine organisms in a 40-acre area. The entrance channel alignment would alter one of seven surf sites in the area and destroy an anchialine pool harboring hypogeal shrimp. Mitigation measures would be needed to ensure that if explosives were used to excavate the channel, the green sea turtle, a threatened species, would not be harmed.

Preparation date: April 22, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - 1992 COLUMBIA/SNAKE RIVERS SALMON FLOW MEASURES OPTIONS ANALYSIS; OREGON, WASHINGTON, AND IDAHO (ACQUIRING REPLACEMENT POWER FOR THAT LOST FROM ADDITIONAL RELEASES: IMPLEMENTATION). AN - 36388719; 4034 AB - PURPOSE: The modification of flow regimes associated with eight reservoirs on the Columbia River and its tributaries in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho is proposed in order to improve the Pacific salmon fishery. The Columbia River and its tributaries form the dominant water system in the Pacific Northwest. The geographic scope of this analysis is the Columbia River Basin from the Bonneville Dam in Oregon and Washington upstream to the middle Snake River reservoirs in Idaho, and north along the mainstem to Mica Dam in British Columbia, Canada. Federal and nonfederal reservoir projects in the United States and Canada that influence flows past the eight run-of-river dams on the lower Columbia and Snake rivers are included in the analysis. The dams are operated to meet multiple purposes, including navigation, flood control, hydropower, recreation, irrigation, and fish and wildlife habitat. For the purposes of the study, drawdown and augmentation alternatives and combinations thereof have been analyzed. The drawdown scheme would involve lowering reservoir elevations at the affected reservoirs during all or part of the smolt migration. Eight options, including two different timing scenarios for two of the drawdown options, have been identified to represent the range of drawdown alternatives. Six of these options would apply to the lower Snake River dams, while the remaining two would apply to the Columbia River dams. The flow augmentation regimes would involve discharging additional water during the spring migration season to increase river flow. As with the drawdown alternatives, a wide variety of options to increase river flows are under consideration. Eight specific flow augmentation options for the Snake River have been identified; these options involve modifications to existing Water Budget releases, sometimes in combination with the application of flood control rule curves and/or shifts of system flood control capacity from the Dworshak and Brownlee dams to the Grand Coulee Dam. Volumes considered under the augmentation plans include 600,000 to 1.2 million acre-feet from Dworshak, up to 200,000 acre-feet from Brownlee, and up to 200,000 acre-feet from multiple smaller sources above Brownlee. The most extreme case would involve using the full storage available at Brownlee and Dworshak, if required, to meet a 140 cubic-foot-per-second flow target. In addition to the supplemental water that could be added to the Snake River, Columbia River flows could be augmented by releases from the Grand Coulee and Arrow dams. Storage releases for temperature control are also under consideration. A monitoring program would be implemented in association with the project. [The Department of Energy, Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), has adopted the Army Corps of Engineers' (COE's) final EIS filed with the Environmental Protection Agency on January 16, 1992. The BPA was a cooperating agency in the preparation of the COE's EIS.] POSITIVE IMPACTS: By increasing flows for upstream and downstream migration and temperature control, the plan would improve the ability of salmon populations to spawn and migrate within the Columbia River system. As a result, populations could increase significantly. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Releases would result in noticeable increases in downstream turbidity and gas saturation that would exceed government standards. All adult fish passage would be eliminated during drawdown and reservoir refilling, including passage of all spring and summer chinook. Temperature changes in the rivers could negatively impact the early portion of adult upstream runs each year. Resident fish habitat would be decreased, and wetland and island habitats would be altered substantially. Wave erosion would accompany releases. Barge transportation on the Snake River would be affected, and hydroelectric and irrigation capacity would be impacted negatively.

AN - 36408785; 3989 AB - PURPOSE: The conducting of joint military exercises at three facilities in Texas and New Mexico is proposed. The facilities are Fort Bliss in Texas and New Mexico; White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico; and Roswell Industrial Air Center in New Mexico. The exercises, named Rolling Sands, would be conducted once a year for five years, during the third quarter of the federal fiscal year, and would involve ground-to-air and air-to-air defense training executed by the 11th Air Defense Artillery Brigade. Each exercise would involve the use of up to 80 individual sites ranging in size from 2 to 40 acres. Live ammunition would be used at some sites and pyrotechnics would be used elsewhere. Approximately 300 sorties per day would be flown. Participants would include approximately 10,000 personnel from the Army, Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps. Field training would be conducted for approximately two weeks following a one-week deployment period, and the exercises would conclude with a one-week redeployment of forces. Equipment would include approximately 300 airplanes and helicopters, 3,000 wheeled vehicles, 50 tracked vehicles, and other minor equipment. Under the preferred alternative, the Roswell facility would be used solely as a staging area; the actual exercises would be conducted at the other two facilities. The costs for deploying the joint forces to these facilities would be approximately $500,000. The only other alternative under consideration is a No Action Alternative. This draft programmatic EIS broadly considers the environmental effects of these operations for the next five years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed exercises would involve all four service branches and would test our joint air defense operational capabilities. They would be the only military exercises to involve planning and executing multiservice air defense actions. The numerous military installations in the vicinity of Fort Bliss would facilitate the access and support of ground troops, while the extensive infrastructure in the area would facilitate the movement of personnel and equipment. The operations would benefit local economies, generating $7.2 million in sales of local goods and services. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The major adverse impact would be the trampling and crushing of vegetation on each site, although each site has previously been disturbed.

Preparation date: April 9, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - MANKATO SOUTH ROUTE (BLUE EARTH CSAH 90), BLUE EARTH COUNTY, MINNESOTA. AN - 36409751; 4042 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a two-lane roadway immediately south of the city of Mankato in southern Minnesota is proposed. The proposed South Route would extend for approximately 11 miles from Trunk Highway (TH) 169/160 west of Mankato to TH 83 southeast of Mankato. Travel demand has increased in the area because of increased enrollment at Mankato State University and the development of two shopping centers south of town. It is therefore anticipated that a four-lane facility would be necessary in the future, except in a segment east of TH 22, where two lanes are considered adequate for the future. As a result, this draft EIS considers the effects of a four-lane roadway except in the above-mentioned segment. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in the draft EIS. The three build alternatives share a common alignment at each end of the study area but form three separate alignments roughly a half-mile apart in the middle portion. Under all three of the build alternatives, the acquisition of 300 feet of right-of-way would be required wherever possible in order to anticipate the eventual expansion of the roadway to four lanes. A separate ten-foot trail is also proposed within the roadway right-of-way. The roadway would cross the Blue Earth and La Sueur rivers; key intersections include County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 33, TH 66, TH 22, and TH 169. Two design alternatives are under consideration for the TH 169 intersection: an at-grade intersection with a traffic signal and channelization for turning movements, and a grade-separated interchange at two potential sites. The total estimated costs of the build alternatives range from approximately $13.4 million to $15.3 million. The estimated costs of the two TH 169 interchange alternatives are $1.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed facility would provide east-west access to various sites south of the city of Mankato and reduce traffic congestion downtown and on north-south roads. In addition, the new roadway would reduce travel time and distance, improve safety and traffic operating conditions, provide long-term energy savings and improved access to job and recreational opportunities, increase property values, and promote economic development. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would displace 5 to 12 residences and up to 2 businesses; 414 to 436 acres of farmland would be converted to roadway use, and up to 13.4 acres of wetlands would be filled. Depending on the alternative selected, $10,500 to $16,100 in tax revenues could be lost to Blue Earth County due to the displacement of the residences and businesses and conversion of the farmland. The roadway would transversally encroach upon 1,000 to 1,500 feet of floodplains adjacent to the Blue Earth River and 400 to 550 feet adjacent to the La Sueur River; small tracts of bottomland hardwoods would be lost in both areas. One of the interchange alternatives would require the acquisition of 18 acres of parkland from Minneopa State Park. Noise levels along the roadway would increase substantially, though not in excess of federal standards. Wildlife habitat along the roadway would be disrupted, and special measures would be taken to protect active nests of bank swallows (a protected species) as well as the snow trillium (a plant species of special concern). Preliminary surveys have found 2 historic structures and 22 archaeological sites in the project area; 3 of the archaeological sites are believed to be Indian burial mounds.

Report 1, User's Manual AN - 19250163; 9310863 AB - The WESTEX Model is a dynamic, one-dimensional, numerical energy and mass budget model that predicts the thermal and density stratification patterns in a reservoir. It predicts the distribution of conservative water quality parameters, the release temperature and quality from a selective withdrawal structure, and the impact of the reservoir operation on selected water quality parameters, both within and downstream of the reservoir, on a daily basis. Since the WESTEX model is one-dimensional, it essentially predicts the vertical density and quality stratification immediately upstream of the outlet structure. The WESTEX model does not compute the required quantity of the release, only the most appropriate way to selectively withdraw the release to satisfy water quality considerations. It is assumed that the quantity of release can be predetermined by considerations other than water quality. Although WESTEX is primarily an operations model, it can be used in an interactive manner to design the number and location of ports for a selective withdrawal outlet tower. An initial design of the withdrawal structure can be assumed and the WESTEX model run to predict the ability to the structure design to meet water quality objectives. Based upon the WESTEX results, the structure designs can be modified; that is, additional ports might be added or the existing ports relocated and the process repeated until an acceptable design that achieves water quality objectives is found. Version 3.0 of the WESTEX program is documented in this report for field office use. The report contains descriptions of the thermal stratification processes (Part II), the computational methodologies and the sequence of operations in WESTEX (Parts II and IV), and the description of the required input data and format (Part V). The report also provides a bibliography on applications of the WESTEX model (Appendix A), examples of input files (Appendices B, C and D), example output (Appendices E, F and G), and program error codes (Appendix H).

Dredgers who do turn their attention toward uplands face increasing difficulties acquiring adequate disposal space for their dredged material, particularly in coastal areas, for several additional reasons: dredging project sponsors have to complete with more profitable and more attractive surface uses when trying to persuade private landowners to grant them disposal easements; dredged material disposal is perceived by the public as waste disposal; and leases or easements tend to tie up the land for long periods of time. These difficulties have led the Corps to search for innovative ways to help secure and retain access to real property suitable for upland DMCAs. Among the beneficial uses the Corps has considered to assist the acquisition and retention of disposal sites is operation of an aquaculture facility. The CAAP grew out of these concerns for the continued availability of confined disposal space for the Corps' ongoing dredged material disposal needs. The main purpose of the CAAP is to demonstrate the technical and economic feasibility of the concept of containment area aquaculture. It is hoped that the CAAP will facilitate the ability of the Corps and the local sponsor to secure additional acreage for new on-land DMCA sites by making them more competitive, vis-a-vis other potential parties seeking land in coastal areas. Landowners would potentially receive both easement payments from the Corps and local sponsors, but also rental payments from the aquaculturist, and enjoy the benefit of capital improvements on their property by the Corps. Part I consists of three chapters and is designed to give the reader an overview of federal and state laws and regulations pertaining to containment aquaculture; specific states covered are AL, Fl, LA, MD, SC and TX. Part II addresses the legal issues that may be raised by containment area aquaculture. (Lantz-PTT) JF - Available from the National Technical Information Service, Springfield, VA, 22161.

This report describes design and construction of aquaculture pond facilities in DMCA, reviews design, construction, and operation of DMCA for material disposal, and documents the design and construction of the CAAP Shrimp Farm Demonstration Facility in Brownsville, TX. A complete overview of the entire planning process that leads up to the start of aquaculture facility construction is provided. Reviews are given of: site selection principles, aquaculture engineering concepts; design and construction of aquaculture facilities based on established aquaculture engineering and design principles; incorporation of site conditions; preparation of feasibility and project plans; methods of estimating project costs; and decision making criteria for project implementation. Included is a stepwise guide to aquaculture project planning, including definition of project objectives, iterative planning and preparation of feasibility study, and final project reports. Examples of commercial pond-based production designs used in the United States are presented to illustrate end products of successful planning efforts. DMCA design and operations are briefly reviewed. Design considerations include the dredging and disposal operations, effluent quality, and storage capacity requirements. These, in turn, determine DMCA structural elements. Critical to designing a dual use DMCA facility for aquaculture is an understanding of the management and operation of the DMCA before, during, and after dredging operations.

AN - 36398412; 4063 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan to reduce the rate of seawater intrusion into groundwater in the Castroville area of the Salinas Valley in California is proposed. The study area is approximately 70 miles long and extends from Bradley to Monterey Bay. In the southern part of the valley, south of Gonzales, the basin is a relatively homogeneous, unconfined aquifer. In the northern part of the valley, the groundwater basin is divided by three distinct clay layers that separate the basin into three aquifers, the 180-foot aquifer, the 400-foot aquifer, and the deep aquifer. Valley groundwater is recharged via the bed of the Salinas River, the deep percolation of rainfall and irrigation water, and underground flow from the surrounding foothills. Virtually all of the water used in the Salinas Valley is groundwater. Of the 25 alternatives originally considered, five were selected for detailed evaluation in the draft EIS: Alternative 1 (No Project), Alternative 2 (Water Supply Project without Reclaimed Wastewater), Alternative 3 (Proposed Water Supply Project with Reclaimed Wastewater), Alternative 4 (Arroyo Seco Project), and Alternative 5 (Extraction Barrier). Alternative 3, the plan sponsored by the Monterey County Water Resources Agency, was modified for presentation in this final EIS. (The Marina/Fort Ord Water Supply Project portion of the proposed program was eliminated from consideration due to environmental concerns.) In brief, the modified plan would involve construction of a tertiary treatment plant and a conveyance pipeline from the treatment plant to the Castroville irrigation system, plus a water pipeline distribution system to provide reclaimed wastewater primarily to Castroville-area farms for agricultural irrigation. The conveyance pipeline would have a much shorter length than was originally proposed, limiting the overall impact of the project on riparian habitat. In addition, the local agency would acquire or regulate all existing and future wells in the Castroville area to minimize the pumping of groundwater in and near the seawater intrusion areas. The proposed modifications in the plan would mean that Castroville-area farms would rely exclusively on reclaimed wastewater most of the year and on a combination of reclaimed wastewater and groundwater during the summer; there would be no need for increased water deliveries from the Nacimiento and San Antonio reservoirs nor any need for the construction of diversion structures along the Salinas River. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Saltwater intrusion into the study area would decline by 44 percent, enabling the provision of a long-term water supply to meet demands for municipal and agricultural interests. The provision of a safe, adequate water supply would allow for the recovery of groundwater levels in the pressure area and the continuation of irrigated farming and municipal development; prevent a decline in agricultural productivity and land values, and an escalation of water costs; preclude legal disputes over water rights; and prevent degradation of water supplies for the city of Salinas. As a result of modifications in the original plan, the permanent loss of wetlands would be reduced from 23 acres to about one acre. Less than one acre of marshland would be temporarily disturbed during construction. Energy use for groundwater pumping would decrease due to higher groundwater levels in the Eastside and the pressure area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: In its crossing of the Salinas River, the pipeline connecting to the tertiary treatment plant could temporarily affect sediment load in the river, reducing the feeding efficiency of resident fish and degrading their spawning and rearing habitat. Fish migration could also be temporarily affected. Slightly less than one acre of riparian habitat would be displaced as a result of construction (in contrast to 14.9 acres under the original plan).

AN - 36388518; 3983 AB - PURPOSE: To accommodate the relocation of its operations and personnel from the Philippines to Guam, the Navy proposes changes in military activities, and the construction of facilities, on Guam. Navy facilities in the Philippines were closed in 1992 because of a decision by the U.S. and Philippine governments not to renew the lease agreement for the U.S. base. As a result, certain operations and support functions have been transferred to Guam to support the Navy's mission in the western Pacific, and approximately 1,380 Navy personnel and 1,450 dependents have been relocated there. Prior to the relocation, approximately 22,575 Navy personnel and dependents were stationed at Guam. Major Navy commands to be relocated to Guam include the Fleet Logistics Support Squadron, Military Sealift Command Sub-Area Commander for Southeast Asia, Naval Special Warfare Unit One, Explosive Ordnance Disposal Mobile Unit Five, and Naval Air Pacific Repair Activity. The existing facilities at Guam (Andersen Air Force Base, the Fleet Industrial Support Center, the Ship Repair Facility, the Naval Magazine, Naval Air Station Agana, the Naval Hospital, and the Naval Oceanography Command Center/Joint Typhoon Warning Center) would see an overall increase in ship port calls, supplies, aircraft operations, and health care and other support personnel. Major construction projects under consideration for Andersen Air Force Base include a new hangar, apron, and washrack, and the renovation of officers' quarters. Approximately 19 construction projects would be undertaken at the Apra Harbor Complex, including additions and alterations to the child development center, new warehouses and storage facilities, power plant expansion, 300 additional units of family housing, modifications to the sewage treatment plant, and new administration facilities for selected relocated commands. Missile magazines and an inert storehouse would be built at the Naval Magazine, and the Oceanography Building at Nimitz Hill would be renovated. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The expanded use of the facilities on Guam would be consistent with U.S. policy not to establish new bases on, and to limit the number of U.S. personnel stationed on, foreign soil. The end of the Cold War plus severe reductions in the military budget were also factors contributing to Guam's selection as a relocation site. The relocation would have a positive effect on the local economy, providing an additional $8.1 million annually in tax revenue and U.S. government grants. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Population increases would increase the demand for community services, housing, infrastructure, solid waste disposal, and utilities, plus increase traffic congestion, in the area. Families of U.S. personnel would remain separated until new housing could be built. Hazardous waste and materials on Guam would increase by 30 to 40 percent following the relocation. Some harm to the marine environment could occur as a result of runoff from Apra Harbor construction sites; underwater training demolition exercises; oil spills; and the introduction of alien marine organisms from ship ballast water. Marine mammal and sea turtle populations could potentially be affected by some of these occurrences.

AN - 36406170; 4067 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of navigation facilities on the lower Ohio River, between river mile (RM) 920.5 at the mouth of the Cumberland River and RM 981 at the confluence with the Mississippi River, in Illinois and Kentucky is proposed. This final supplement to the final EIS of November 1985 addresses design alternatives and design changes that have been made since the final EIS. The final EIS proposed a single replacement structure, with two 110-foot-by-1,200-foot locks. This structure would have replaced locks and dams 52 and 53, also known as Olmsted Locks and Dam. Key design changes since the issuance of the final EIS have resulted from seismic conditions in the vicinity of the project site. Concern developed regarding the possibility of movement of or damage to the originally proposed tainter gate piers during an earthquake. Due to this concern, consideration was given to an all-wicket dam. Development of preliminary construction cost estimates indicated that an all-wicket dam would be less expensive than comparable tainter gates and would not involve the attendant seismic weaknesses. Based on cost information and hydraulic model studies, an all-wicket plan was eventually selected. The currently proposed plan would consist of two 110-foot-by-1,200-foot locks, a 2,200-foot-wide navigable pass/regulatory section controlled by 220 remotely operated hydraulic wickets, and a short section of fixed weir tying the project into the Kentucky riverbank. The position of the two locks along the Illinois riverbank would be 125 feet riverward from the site proposed in the final EIS, in order to create satisfactory approach conditions for river traffic. The somewhat shortened fixed weir would be located along the Kentucky riverbank as originally proposed. In addition, a navigable channel would be dredged along the Kentucky riverbank for use by river traffic during construction associated with the first two of the four stages of the cofferdam, as this construction activity would interfere with navigation along the existing navigable channel. Completion of the locks would be followed eventually by demolition of locks and dams 52 and 53. The project would also include construction of prototype wickets, planned at Smithland Locks and Dam, for testing and evaluating components of the hydraulic wickets. Other changes since the final EIS include implementation of a year-round construction schedule as opposed to a seasonal schedule, increases in dredging requirements, measures to prevent impacts on bald eagles that have established a successful population at the Ballard County Wildlife Management Area in Kentucky, measures to stabilize two landslides identified along the Illinois riverbank, and completion of site assessments for toxic hazardous substances. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would reduce lock congestion and transportation costs and provide a modernized facility for safe and dependable navigation through the study area. Construction activities would provide employment in an economically depressed area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Dredging and project facilities could impact populations of an endangered species of mussel, and facilities and operations would have a small impact on the bald eagle population. The clearing of five acres of riparian woodlands could affect the Indiana bat, which is also an endangered species. Project-related noise could affect migratory waterfowl.

AN - 36408849; 4040 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a multilane, limited-access roadway in order to extend State Route (SR) 312 from its current terminus at SR 207 to a connection with US 1 (SR 5) just north of the city of Saint Augustine, Florida, is proposed. The proposed SR 312 extension would be approximately nine miles long and would serve primarily as a bypass route around the congested segments of US 1 in the St. Augustine area. It would serve a secondary function as a north-south traffic artery in the developing areas southwest and west of the city, and provide an alternate route linking the beach areas south of the city with SR 207, County Road 214, and SR 16. Three design alternatives are considered in this draft EIS; all alignments follow a preferred corridor that would minimize impacts to the Glimpse of Glory neighborhood and the Fourmile Swamp. Under Alternative A, a four-lane, limited-access freeway, with four interchange locations, within a 300-foot right-of-way, would be built. Under Alternatives B1 and B2, limited-access rural arterials with six lanes from SR 207 to SR 16 and four lanes from SR 16 to US 1 north within 250-foot right-of-ways would be built. Access would be provided at four locations under Alternative B1 and at eight locations under Alternative B2. Total project costs range from $30.1 million to $54.3 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed project, the actions would improve north-south traffic flow, reduce traffic congestion, create safer driving conditions, and spur economic development at major crossroads. It would provide a projected average in 2015 of 36,000 daily trips for areas south of SR 16 and 18,000 daily trips for areas north of SR 16. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The right-of-way requirements would displace 8 to 15 houses, 4 to 12 mobile homes, 6 to 10 businesses, and 73 to 117 acres of wetlands, depending on the alternative selected. The project would encroach on 42 acres of floodplains and 34 acres with a high probability of containing archaeological sites. One of these sites is potentially eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Three to four contaminated sites are located within the project corridor. As many as four noise-sensitive residential sites could experience noise levels that approach or exceed federal standards. Operational impacts during construction would include air and noise pollution, and localized storm water runoff pollution.

AN - 36412925; 4051 AB - PURPOSE: The construction, in a new location, of a section of State Route (SR) 69 from US 64 east of Savannah, Tennessee, to SR 202 south of Decaturville is proposed. The two-lane highway would begin approximately 3.5 miles east of Savannah at US 64 and extend in a northerly direction to its intersection with SR 202 approximately three miles south of Decaturville. The proposal would include a new bridge across the Tennessee River to replace the two ferry crossings now serving the project area; the proposed bridge would have a 48-foot roadway with a one-foot parapet right and left. The proposal would also include the construction of a connector road from the new section of SR 69 by way of Clifton to US 64 at Clifton Junction. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under Alternative A, which would be the most westerly route, the bridge would cross the Tennessee River at river mile 166.3, have a main-line length of 21 miles, and require a 12.4-mile connector route improvement. Under Alternative C Modified, which would be the next most westerly route, the bridge would cross the river at river mile 161.9, have a main-line length of 25.7 miles, and require an 8.2-mile connector route improvement. Under Alternative F, which would be the most easterly route, the bridge would cross the river at river mile 158.4 in Clifton, have a main-line length of 29 miles, and require a 6-mile connector route improvement. Total estimated project costs range from $62.6 million for Alternative A to $74.4 million for Alternative F. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would reduce travel time and distance, improve safety and traffic operating conditions, provide long-term energy savings and improved access to job and recreational opportunities, increase property values, and promote economic development. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Right-of-way requirements would displace 26 to 31 families, 3 to 5 businesses, 4.4 to 7.1 acres of prime farmland, 588 to 602 acres of upland forest, and 1.0 to 9.0 acres of wetlands, depending on the alternative selected. Up to 55 sensitive receptors would be affected by noise levels in excess of federal standards, and up to 16 archaeological sites would be affected by the project. River traffic would be temporarily inconvenienced during bridge construction.

Preparation date: March 19, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT OF THE FORT BELVOIR ENGINEER PROVING GROUND, FAIRFAX COUNTY, VIRGINIA. AN - 36411807; 3990 AB - PURPOSE: The development of an Army office/private-use building complex on the Army Engineer Proving Ground (EPG) at Fort Belvoir in Fairfax County, Virginia, is proposed. The EPG site is an 820-acre parcel of government-owned land that would be developed in cooperation with private developers. The Army's initial office space needs would be 700,000 square feet (sf); however, the Army could ultimately require as much as 3.1 million sf over the next 10 to 15 years. Twelve preconceptual development scenarios were established to describe the general range of development options for the site. The development scenarios covered a range of densities, with floor:area ratios (FARs) of 0.20 to 0.65, and each density scenario was further defined to cover varying mixes of private development, including commercial, office, and support retail; residential; and hotel/service and support uses. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 2), the site would be developed to support a mix of office/support retail; residential; and hotel /conference and service/support uses at an average density FAR of 0.55. The complex would include 3.1 million sf of Army office space, 4.9 million sf of private office/support retail space, 1.6 million sf of hotel/conference and service/support space, and 5,600 residential (private sector) units. Of the EPG site's 820 acres, approximately 378 acres would be used for buildings and parking. Approximately 217 additional acres would be allocated to an environmental quality corridor (EQC) along Accotink Creek. (An EQC is designated by Fairfax County to protect environmentally sensitive lands usually associated with stream valleys; it encompasses, and protects from development, land that is a certain distance from the water.) Approximately 23 acres outside the EQC in different areas throughout the site contain wetlands/hydric soils. The remaining 202 acres would be allocated to the development of infrastructure such as roads and storm water drainage systems. Construction of the Army's needed office space would be phased in between 1993 and 2005. The private development would be built in four phases over the next 20 years. Under the Military Construction Program Alternative (Alternative 3), the Army would reuse the northeastern segment of the EPG that currently contains vehicular testing facilities and office space; 90 acres of this segment would be used for office facilities, and 10 acres for infrastructure. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The Army currently leases approximately 3.0 million sf of private office space in Washington, District of Columbia, at a direct lease cost of approxi mately $43.0 million annually. If development rights to the Fort Belvoir EPG can be negotiated for Army office space, significant savings in lease costs would be realized. The development would help the Army implement a congressional mandate to reduce its inventory of leased space in the National Capital Region. An opportunity for Fairfax County to extend the Accotink Stream Valley Park, as envisioned in the county's trail plan, would be provided. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The visual character of the site would change, and trees would be removed. Traffic volumes on the highway network surrounding the site, and waste generated at the site, would increase significantly. Two bridge crossings of Accotink Creek would be required. The clearing of vegetation outside the EQC would result in some loss of natural habitat. New community facilities, including schools, could be necessary to accommodate full build-out of the site, as the preferred alternative could add approximately 1,400 schoolchildren to the area by the year 2010.

Preparation date: March 18, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SHORE PROTECTION PROJECT, PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA, FROM MARTIN COUNTY LINE TO LAKE WORTH INLET AND FROM SOUTH LAKE WORTH INLET TO BROWARD COUNTY LINE: JUPITER/CARLIN SEGMENT (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF APRIL 1987). AN - 36411004; 4064 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a protective and recreational beach along 23.6 miles of badly eroded shoreline located within the limits of Palm Beach County, Florida, is proposed. Under the preferred alternative, beach restoration would occur along the reaches of Tequesta (Reach 1), Jupiter (Reach 3A), Juno (Reach 3B), Riviera Beach and Johnny McGarthur State Park (Reach 3C), Midtown-Palm Beach (Reach 5B), Sloan's/Widner's Curve-Palm Beach (Reach 5C), South Boca Raton (Reach 12), Palm Beach (Reaches 5A and 6), Ocean Ridge (Reach 8), Delray Beach (Reach 9), and North Boca Raton (Reach 10). The restored beach for each reach would be of such dimensions as required to dissipate wave energy seaward of upland property, but existing natural profiles suggest that a berm elevation of ten feet would be adequate to provide protection during all but the most severe storms. Seaward slopes would vary from reach to reach. The width of the restored beach would be controlled at the mean high-water shoreline, which would be moved seaward 25 to 100 feet, depending on the reach in question. To avoid excessive narrowing of the beach during periods of temporary recession, a seven-year advance supply of nourishment, in addition to the sand for the initial beach widening, would be placed in all reaches except Reach 5A, where a two-year supply of advance nourishment would be placed. The project would require an initial fill of 8.4 million cubic yards (mcy) and periodic nourishment of 6.2 mcy. Proposed borrow areas would be located 1,900 to 5,600 feet offshore. This draft supplement to the final EIS of April 1987 proposes the restoration of a critically eroded area south of Jupiter Inlet. The proposed plan would involve dredging 513,000 cubic yards of sand from the easterly side of the ebb tidal shoal offshore from the inlet. The dredged sand would then be placed as fill on 1.08 miles of beach, beginning 400 feet south of the inlet. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The entire project would provide seven-year protection against erosion damage, including damage to upland structures, and offset erosion effects; provide effective protection for the tourist-based economy; enhance the appearance of the coastal zone and its suitability for beach recreation; and restore some of the zone's ability to provide protection against storms. Beach restoration would increase the annual number of visitors to the area by two million by 1995. Damages to existing structures would be reduced by $19 million annually. Beach habitat would be created for nesting sea turtles and for invertebrate and shorebird species. The project proposed in this draft supplement would provide high-quality sand to a stretch of beach that is seriously eroded, and shore protection for approximately seven years with no significant effect on wave regime. Sand placed within this particular stretch of beach would also feed the down-drift beaches to the south and reduce the need for other beach nourishment projects anticipated in the countywide plan. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Dredging and beach restoration activities would destroy benthic habitat, temporarily increase water turbidity, and possibly injure such endangered species as manatees and sea turtles. The project proposed in this draft supplement would be scheduled outside the peak sea turtle nesting season in order to minimize impacts to this species. The immediate impact to the borrow site would be the temporary defaunation of the benthic community.

Preparation date: March 15, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - REDSTONE ARSENAL BASE REALIGNMENT, MADISON COUNTY, ALABAMA. AN - 36409562; 3982 AB - PURPOSE: The realignment of various armament and chemical operations to Redstone Arsenal in north-central Alabama is proposed. The arsenal is located in the southwestern portion of Madison County near the city of Huntsville. The operations affected are the armament and chemical elements of the headquarters of the U.S. Army Armament, Munitions, and Chemical Command in Rock Island, Illinois; the U.S. Army Materiel Readiness Support Activity in the Lexington-Bluegrass Army Depot in Kentucky; the U.S. Army Logistic Control Activity in San Francisco, California; and the fuze development and production mission at the Harry Diamond Laboratories in Adelphi, Maryland. The relocations of these operations would result in the addition of approximately 1,900 civilian and military jobs at the arsenal. The positions transferred would include approximately 1,430 civilian and 80 military positions from the Illinois facility; 270 civilian and 10 military positions from the Kentucky facility; 120 civilian positions from the California facility; and approximately 30 civilian positions from the Maryland facility. The consolidation of related cataloging and logistics assistance activities at the arsenal would result in the additional employment of 300 civilian and 4 military personnel. Due to general reductions in the Army, the personnel strength of the U.S. Army Missile Command at the arsenal is scheduled to be reduced by approximately 250 positions; this reduction would partially offset the increases resulting from the proposed action and other realignments. The proposed realignment would require the construction of two new buildings and the expansion of a third building to accommodate the increase in the work force. The largest of these facilities is the proposed Armaments Support Annex, which would occupy 354,662 square feet, with offices, meeting rooms, and other support facilities to accommodate 1,900 people. The proposed Weapons Maintenance and Operations Center would occupy 47,180 square feet and accommodate up to 110 persons. Construction options for the proposed laboratory addition would involve either adding 21,504 square feet to the existing facility or constructing a new building with that same capacity. This facility would house the missile-related fuze development and production mission. Two or three sites are under consideration for each facility. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Related Army armament and chemical operations would be consolidated at one facility, thus enhancing productivity and reducing long-term costs. The realignment would also be in line with the overall reduction in Army force structure resulting from changing global security requirements. The realignment would have a small but positive effect on employment, business volume, and personal income within Madison County. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The employment increase within the Redstone Arsenal would result in increased traffic congestion; traffic on three sections of road within the arsenal grounds would exceed road capacities. The population increase associated with the realignment would strain the resources of the local school system. LEGAL MANDATES: Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-510).

AN - 36388681; 4041 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of Forest Development Road Number 30, which closely parallels the Salmon River in the Salmon National Forest in east-central Idaho, is proposed. The affected road, also known as the Salmon River Road, extends for 46 miles from the town of North Fork west to the Corn Creek campground and boating site. In 1980 Congress designated the Salmon River as a wild and scenic river, and the 46-mile segment within the proposed project area was classified as a recreational river. The Salmon River Road provides launch access and removal points for float-boaters using the Salmon River, and the only feasible access to private lands and numerous side drainages where other resource activities occur. The road is currently paved with an asphalt surface for approximately 16.8 miles and has a gravel surface for the remainder of its length. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. After completion of the final EIS, an alternative would be selected for each of six road segments. Under all three of the action alternatives, eight existing recreation sites would be improved and eight new sites would be developed. Under Alternative B, actions would include a high level of roadway improvements, including paving approximately 29 miles of roadway, widening the roadway through the construction of retaining walls and some minor realignment, and installing guardrails. Under Alternative C, actions would include a moderate level of roadway improvements, including paving 9.8 miles of the existing gravel road, constructing shorter segments of retaining walls than under Alternative B, and applying additional crushed gravel and performing spot paving in some sections (approximately 2.7 miles). Under Alternative D, actions would include a low level of roadway improvements, including paving 3.1 miles of the existing gravel road and applying additional crushed gravel to the remaining 26 miles of gravel roadway; no spot paving would occur under this alternative. A different alternative could be selected for each road segment. The estimated construction costs range from $2.2 million for Alternative D to $3.7 million for Alternative C, and up to $6.8 million for Alternative B. Recreation site developments would cost $1.7 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed improvements would facilitate safe travel along the Salmon River Road and enhance the quality of recreational experiences associated with the Salmon River. The improvements would be in compliance with the forest plan. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The estimated loss of wildlife habitat from the improvements beyond the road prism would range from 0.3 to 9.9 acres. Recreation site improvement and development, as well as development of borrow sites, could disturb an additional 28 acres and 13.5 acres, respectively. The proposed retaining walls associated with Alternative B would encroach upon 2,300 feet of the floodplain, in contrast to those associated with Alternative C, which would only encroach upon 200 feet of the floodplain. Increased turbidity and sedimentation would affect fisheries under all the action alternatives; among the species affected would be two protected species, the sockeye and chinook salmon. Some ponderosa pine would be lost under all the action alternatives, which would affect the unique visual quality of the road and river corridor. Numerous archaeological sites and cultural resources near the road would be affected by the proposed improvements.

Preparation date: March 11, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - US HIGHWAY ROUTE 89, LOGAN CANYON HIGHWAY, CACHE AND RICH COUNTIES, UTAH. AN - 36411120; 4052 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of US 89 through Logan Canyon in Cache and Rich counties, Utah, is proposed. US 89 extends from Mexico to Canada. The 28-mile section under consideration extends from Right Fork, approximately nine miles east of Logan, to Garden City. The road passes through the Wasatch-Cache National Forest, and provides access to the many recreational opportunities in the forest and in the Bear Lake area at the eastern end of the canyon. Improvements would include widening the roadway and shoulders, flattening curves, replacing and widening bridges, adjusting the road gradient, improving signs, providing climbing lanes and additional recreational turnouts, and/or realigning selected roadway sections. In addition to a No Action Alternative, three Complete Project alternatives are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative, which would require an amendment to the Wasatch-Cache Forest Plan, the highway would be upgraded in those locations where the natural beauty of the landscape would not be degraded as a result. In the first four miles of the project area, the lower Middle Canyon section, minimal improvements would be made, including bridge replacement and minor alignment adjustments. The existing roadway width of 26 feet would be maintained. In the remainder of the Middle Canyon section, the roadway would be widened to 34 feet and improved. Instead of providing for the construction of a recovery area from the roadway down to natural grade, this alternative would maintain a clear zone within 18 to 22 feet of either side of the roadway. In this clear zone, substantial hazards would be removed or protection against them provided by a guardrail or another appropriate barrier. In the Upper Canyon section the roadway would be widened to 40 feet, hazards would be removed or protection against them provided, and a passing lane would be built. From the Bear Lake Summit to the Bridgerland subdivision in Rich County, the highway would be widened to three lanes (47 feet), hazards would be removed or protection against them provided, and alignment improvements would be made to flatten curves. From the Bridgerland subdivision to Garden City, the highway would be widened to 40 feet and the alignment improved. The estimated construction costs of the preferred alternative are $34.8 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would improve a segment of substandard highway linking two municipalities and provide access to regional recreational resources. Access to recreational areas in the Wasatch-Cache National Forest, the Bear Lake area at the eastern end of the segment, and Yellowstone National Park to the northeast would improve significantly. Air quality within the canyon would remain stable or improve. The project would provide approximately 385 construction jobs and generate $64.1 million for the regional economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, adverse impacts to national forest recreational and cultural resources would result, with three sites being affected. Approximately 103 acres of new rights-of-way would be developed, and one residence would be relocated. There would be some reduction in cutthroat trout and brown trout populations. Some 11.2 acres of wetlands would be displaced, 149.3 acres of upland habitat would be lost, and 89.8 acres of winter range habitat would be lost. Highway construction would also mar scenic views of the forest.

AN - 36413200; 4043 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of Route 96 from Meadow Street in the city of Ithaca to Duboise Road in the town of Ithaca, Tompkins County, New York, is proposed. The project would constitute localized improvement and would not be part of any long-range plan for Route 96 improvements. Three construction alternatives and a No-Build (Null) Alternative are considered in this final EIS. Alternative A with an optional Route 89 alignment is the preferred alternative. Under Alternative A, a low-scale facility would be built that provided improvements only within the city. The facility would provide relief primarily for the traffic congestion at the intersection of Routes 13A, 79, 89, and 96 (known locally as the ""Octopus''). The project would include two new bridges crossing over the Flood Control Channel. One bridge would carry Route 96 traffic via the Buffalo Street connection to Cliff Street; the other would carry Route 89 traffic via the Taughannock Boulevard connection to Park Road. The Octopus intersection would be eliminated as a result of the proposed construction. Route 79 traffic would continue to use the existing State Street bridge crossing the Flood Control Channel. Meadow Street would provide one-way traffic flow northbound between Six Mile Creek and Hancock Street. Fulton Street would be extended between Court Street and Hancock Street and would provide one-way traffic flow southbound between Hancock Street and Six Mile Creek. (The Fulton Street/Meadow Street one-way ""pair'' would also be provided under the other two construction alternatives.) Route 96 traffic would be directed to Buffalo Street from Meadow Street and Fulton Street. Buffalo Street would provide for a two-way Route 96 from Meadow Street to its connection with Cliff Street on the west side of the Flood Control Channel. The total length of Route 96 through the proposed project area is approximately 0.4 miles. The estimated costs of the preferred alternative are $21.5 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Traffic congestion at a dangerous intersection would be lessened, and the two new bridges would effectively separate Route 89 and Route 96 traffic. The Fulton Street/Meadow Street one-way pair would improve the traffic flow along the existing intersections of the city streets located within the project area. Travel time between the city and town would decline significantly. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements under the preferred alternative would result in one residential and seven commercial displacements. Two sites that would be used for the project show signs of minor hazardous waste contamination, and four of the buildings that would be removed contain asbestos materials. The project would require some relocation of the existing Cayuga Inlet Trail that runs along the west bank of the Flood Control Channel, and the displacement of some land at Cass Park. It would encroach visually on both Cass Park and the island area. Two sites would be impacted by traffic noise once the facility was in operation. In addition, the city's property tax base would be reduced slightly as a result of the project.

AN - 36414084; 4062 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a dam and a 24,000-acre-foot (af) reservoir on the Carmel River approximately 16 miles southeast of Monterey in Monterey County, California, is proposed. Five alternatives, including the No-Project Alternative, are considered in this revised draft supplement to the draft EIS of September 1987. Under the preferred alternative, a roller-compacted concrete dam would be built, with a crest length of 750 to 900 feet, that could be raised to impound as much as 45,000 af of water if it were authorized at some future date. The dam would be located approximately 2,400 feet downstream from the existing Los Padres Dam. The surface area of the reservoir would be 266 acres, and the spillway crest elevation would be 1,130 feet. The reservoir project would also include inlet and outlet structures, fish passage facilities, wells in Carmel Valley and Seaside, a water treatment plant in Begonia, a management plan for allocation and phasing of yield, and the development of passive recreational facilities. A three-million-gallon-per-day desalination plant located at Sand City would be included in the project design. The plant would include reverse osmosis facilities in an existing warehouse; three radial wells (Ranney collectors) extending below the water table, for collecting raw seawater; two Ranney injectors to discharge brine effluent into the shallow dune sand aquifer; pipelines; and storage tanks. Estimated capital costs of the project are $119.9 million; annual operation and maintenance cost estimates are $3.9 million. Included in the revised draft supplement are additional data on site-specific impacts of the desalination plant. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide a municipal water supply that would meet both the short- and long-term needs (through the year 2020) of the Monterey Peninsula Water Management District, and afford drought protection. Numerous employment opportunities would be created by the project during its construction period. Fish spawning activity would increase significantly as a result of the project. Destruction of riparian vegetation in the area would decrease due to increased groundwater flows. Cooler river waters during the summer would benefit steelhead trout. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Creation of the reservoir would require the inundation of a substantial land area, which would destroy vegetation and associated terrestrial habitat. Affected land would include 23 acres within the Ventana Wilderness; the exchange of 140 acres of adjacent land for the wilderness land would be required. The reservoir would inundate 13 archaeological sites recommended for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, as well as five sites culturally important to the Esselen Tribe. Average residential water rates would increase by $17.79 bimonthly. Construction of the desalination plant would displace the habitat of the snowy plover and black legless lizard, and its operation would generate considerable mechanical noise.

Preparation date: March 3, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CHIP MILL TERMINALS ON THE TENNESSEE RIVER, ALABAMA AND TENNESSEE. AN - 36399017; 4059 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of one or more chip mill barge terminals on the Tennessee River for the loading and shipment of hardwood chips is proposed. The chips would be transported from mills located on or near the Tennessee River to pulp and paper plants for the manufacturing of coated paper and other products. The proposed facilities would be located between Bridgeport, Alabama (river mile 412.5), and New Hope, Tennessee (river mile 424), along the upper portion of the Guntersville Reservoir. During 1990-91, the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) received three applications, which it is still considering, from companies seeking to build barge terminals within the project area. The first applicant, the Parker Towing Company, proposes to build additional barge mooring facilities and a covered overhead conveyor for the loading of wood chips in New Hope within the Nickajack Port, which Parker leases and operates. The proposed facilities would be located at river mile 424. In addition, Parker would build a chip mill in an industrial park within the Nickajack Port on land formerly owned by the TVA. The other two applicants, Donaghae Pulp Company and Boise Cascade Corporation, propose to construct chip mills on nearby private lands not regulated by the TVA. Donaghae would build a barge terminal on 2.4 acres of TVA land, just southeast of Bridgeport. Boise Cascade would build a terminal at river mile 418.4 on 1.24 acres of TVA land within the city of New Hope. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under Alternative 1 (the No Action Alternative), all three applications would be denied. Under Alternative 2, one or more of the requests would be approved if the applicants implemented certain on-site environmental protection measures such as mill and truck noise controls, runoff and dust controls, and archaeological resource protection. Under Alternative 3, one or more of the requests would be approved if the applicants agreed to certain conditions designed to limit the environmental impacts of timber harvesting. These conditions could include enhancing the existing forest management programs or adopting specific protective measures such as wetlands and archaeological site protection, and visual impact considerations. The agency preferred alternative is Alternative 1. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed barge terminals and associated chip mills would have a beneficial effect on the local economy. One chip mill would increase direct and indirect employment by at least 438 jobs and income by $18 million. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the three new chip mills would bring about changes in current timber-harvesting practices within a 42-county area. Clear-cutting would increase from 44 percent of harvested timber to as much as 69 percent, while selective harvesting would decrease from 56 percent of all harvests to 31 percent. Some 114,000 acres of the forest per year could be clear-cut, compared with 55,000 acres per year at present. Increased timber harvesting would affect plant communities and associated wildlife populations, plus local stream temperature, sedimentation, flow, and nutrient enrichment. If all applications were denied, as would occur under Alternative 1, the affected companies could still elect to construct mills on private land, operate the mills without any additional noise controls, and rely on truck traffic for the shipment of wood chips. Under such a scenario, truck traffic would increase by up to 400 trips per day.

AN - 75666937; 8385815 AB - The growth and toxicity of various Microcystis aeruginosa strains were tested. Six of 14 strains were lethal to mice, five of which produced microcystin. Of these, M. aeruginosa PCC 7806 produced the most toxin per biomass and was thus used to examine the influence of various trace metals on exponential growth rate and production of microcystin. Zinc was shown to be required for optimal growth as well as toxin production. Al, Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, and Sn did not significantly affect toxin yield at non-toxic concentrations of the metals. In contrast, iron had a pronounced effect on growth rate and toxin yield. In the absence and at low concentrations of Fe (< or = 2.5 microM), the cells grew much more slowly, but produced 20-40% more toxin. This is in agreement with the hypothesis that production of microcystins may be a response to specific environmental stress conditions.

Adsorption isotherms for the aromatic acids showed saturation at high dissolved ligand concentrations; saturation was not observed (over the concentration range examined) for the chlorophenols. Small amounts of heat were produced on reaction of the aromatic acids, the monochlorophenols and propionate (but not of the longer chain fatty acids) with the oxide surface; overall ligand adsorption reactions were exothermic. For adsorption of protonated ligands the favourable enthalpy of reaction was due largely to the exothermic proton transfer reaction between phenolic hydroxyl groups of the ligands and hydroxide ions displaced from the oxide surface. The enthalpy corresponding with the ligand-exchange reaction of surface hydroxyl groups for the various ligands (as fully deprotonated species) appeared to be related to the ligand structure. The surface ligand-exchange reaction was more largely to the exothermic proton transfer reaction between phenolic hydroxyl groups of the ligands and hydroxide ions displaced from the oxide surface. The enthalpy corresponding with the ligand-exchange reaction of surface hydroxyl groups for the various ligands (as fully deprotonated species) appeared to be related to the ligand structure. The surface ligand-exchange reaction was more exothermic for the dicarboxylic acid phthalate than for the monocarboxylic acids benzoate or propionate or for salicylate, and was endothermic for the chlorophenols.

The REMR design for precast stay-in-place forms, placement techniques, installation of anchors, concrete removal techniques, and underwater concrete placement methods enabled the efficient and cost-effective replacement of deteriorated concrete with a durable, abrasion-resistant concrete surface. These concrete precast panels are far superior to those surfaces previously repaired using conventional concreting methods at the Troy Lock. The reduced forming requirements (erection, insulating, removing, and movement) provided time and cost benefits. Jacketing of the riverside of the river wall also resulted in substantial savings by eliminating concrete removal costs. Additional savings resulted from the ability to install the riverside precast panels without dewatering. The results achieved at the Troy Lock and Dam project demonstrate the advantages that stay-in-place forming can provide for similar concrete repair applications.

To alleviate these adverse conditions, trenchless technology can offer cost-effective and safe alternatives for infrastructure renewal and rehabilitation. One form of trenchless technology currently being investigated at Waterways Experiment Station is micro-tunneling. Micro-tunneling can be described as a remotely controlled, guided, pipe-jacking process. The guidance system is usually a laser mounted in the jacking pit with a target mounted inside the articulated steering head of the micro-tunneling machine. Two different types of micro-tunneling system were conducted, i.e. auger and slurry, under the same ground conditions. Auger micro-tunneling tests were conducted between 8-26 September 1992, using a Soltau RVA250 machine, with an outer diameter of approximately 26.3 in. During the auger micro-tunneling trials, approximately 312 ft of tunneling was performed over a period of 12 days for an average of 26 ft/d. Mobilization and installation required 6 days. Demobilization and site cleanup required 3 days. Slurry micro-tunneling tests were conducted between 28 September and 31 October 1992, using an Iseki Unclemole Z TCZ, with an outer diameter of 26 in. During the slurry machine test, approximately 216 ft of tunneling was performed over a period of 21 days, for an average of 10 ft/d. Mobilization and installation required 6 working days, while demobilization and site cleanup required 4 working days. Maximum horizontal and vertical deviations were <1-1/4 in. for the auger machine, and < 1 in. in all cases, and typically < 1/2 in. for the slurry machine. For the slurry machine test, measured ground movements were < 1/4 in. throughout the 216 ft drive, as measured at all levels, and were typically within the level of instrument precision. For the auger machine test, significant ground movements were measured at a few locations, specifically in a flooded sand section.

However, large voids may develop between units as the result of cross-sectional design or structural degradation through time (e.g. loss of core stone or settlement) and may impair structure functionality. A grout made from a portland-cement slurry and a sodium-silicate solution was used to seal the voids in the Port Everglades, FL, south jetty, and a sodium silicate-diacetin mixture was used to stabilize the sand layer beneath the rubble-mound structure. The purpose of sealing the jetty was to eliminate transmission of sand through the structure into the navigation channel. Prior to sealing, 'man-sized' voids existed in the structure, impairing its function as a terminal groin for beach fill placed south of the structure. Continual erosion of the beach located immediately down-coast, owned by the State of Florida, prompted Broward County and the State to fund a jetty rehabilitation project and subsequent beach fill of the adjacent south beach. A monitoring plan to ascertain the effectiveness of the project through a field evaluation was conducted by the Waterways Experiment Station, Coastal Engineering Research Center, with the cooperation of Broward County, the State and the sealing contractor. Because of non-uniformity between pre-sealing and post-sealing flow conditions, these flow conditions had to be analyzed individually. It was determined that there was at least a 90% probability that a significant difference existed in flow through the structure. Post-construction evaluations conducted during the monitoring of the Port Everglades, FL, south jetty sealing project indicated that the transmissibility of the structure has been significantly reduced. The change in average current vector direction, measured during peak flood, high water slack, and peak ebb conditions, indicated that the structure was much more reflective in the post-sealing condition and, therefore, less transmissible.

The sublethal test endpoint was estimated with the individual somatic growth rate (mg dry weight/d). The te st was initiated with two- to three-week- old post-emergent juvenile worms and continued for 28 d. The potential bias due to selected nontreatment factors on polychaete survival and growth was evaluated. For example, grain size had no significant effect, whereas the number of worms placed in each exposure vessel was critical. Direct transfer from 30 ppt (parts per thousand) seawater to salinities /=0.7 mg/L unionized ammonia or >/=5 mg/L hydrogen sulfide. Survival of juvenile worms to concentrations of the reference toxicant, cadmium chloride, approximating the 96-hr LC50 (5 mg/L) was used as a quality control measure. Results are expressed in control chart format analogous to methods used in analytical chemistry.

MARIE, MICHIGAN: OPENING OPERATION OF THE LOCK FACILITIES ON 21 MARCH (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT III TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF JULY 1977). AN - 36409496; 3971 AB - PURPOSE: The extension of the period of operation of the locks at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, is proposed to allow additional vessel transits in response to the reasonable demands of commerce. Currently, annual operations are terminated after January 8 (with a possible extension to January 15). This third draft supplement to the final EIS of July 1977 addresses a proposed change in the plan of operation of the federal facilities at Sault Ste. Marie. Specifically, it proposes that the winter closure period be shortened by commencing operation of the locks up to two weeks prior to the April 1 start-up date specified in federal regulations (33 CFR 270.440 (u)). The locks have traditionally not been operated during the winter season because of ice conditions on the upper Great Lakes connecting channels, namely the St. Marys River, the St. Clair River, Lake St. Clair, and the Detroit River. However, during the 1970s the locks were operated year-round as part of a demonstration program. From 1980 to 1992, the Corps of Engineers evaluated industry requests for early operation of the locks on a year-by-year basis; those requests were always granted. Three alternatives are considered in this draft supplemental EIS: retaining the April 1 start-up date; selecting a start-up date between March 15 and April 1 based on ice and weather conditions; and fixing a new start-up date between March 15 and April 1. The preferred alternative is to commence operation of the locks on March 21; that proposal has a benefit-cost ratio of 2.1. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The extension of lock operations would benefit industry and commercial navigation by allowing for greater use of low-cost waterborne transportation to and from Lake Superior ports and reducing winter stockpiling costs. Industrial and commercial shipping concerns could take advantage of the ten days of additional shipping time proposed under the preferred alternative for vessel traffic passing through the Sault locks. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Deer on Neebish and Sugar islands could be adversely affected during years in which traffic levels through the locks were significantly increased over normal traffic levels. High traffic levels could result in the blockage of deer attempting to cross the shipping channel to Neebish Island in late March. Some Neebish Island deer could be prevented from browsing on St. Joseph Island. Benthic communities, water quality, and submerged aquatic plants could be adversely affected within the St. Marys River, which has relatively narrow channels and is usually ice-covered during the proposed period of early lock operations. Some shore structures located near the navigation channel in the St. Marys River could be subjected to increased winter damage.

AN - 36409528; 3977 AB - PURPOSE: The modification of flow regimes associated with eight projects on the Columbia River and its tributaries in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington is proposed in order to improve the Pacific salmon fishery. The Columbia River and its tributaries form the dominant water system in the Pacific Northwest. The geographic scope of this analysis is the Columbia River Basin from the Bonneville Dam in Oregon upstream to Brownlee Reservoir on the middle Snake River in Idaho, and farther upstream to Arrow Lakes on the upper Columbia River in Canada. The water management actions under consideration would be implemented at three storage reservoirs (Dworshak, Grand Coulee, and Brownlee) and five mainstream run-of-river dams operated by the Corps of Engineers. The dams are operated to meet multiple purposes, including navigation, flood control, hydropower, recreation, irrigation, and fish and wildlife habitat. This final supplement to the final EIS of January 1992 responds to two actions of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS): in November 1991, NMFS declared the Snake River sockeye salmon an endangered species, and in April 1992, NMFS listed the Snake River fall and spring /summer chinook salmon as a threatened species. In taking these actions, NMFS identified hydropower development within the Columbia River Basin as one of the factors contributing to the decline of salmon populations. The final EIS had recommended increasing the velocity of river flow to move the juvenile salmon downstream more rapidly and reduce their exposure to predators, but the scope of that EIS was limited to actions to be implemented in 1992. This final supplement considers the implementation of flow improvement measures for 1993 and subsequent years. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in the final supplement. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 4), most actions occurring during the 1992 operating year would be recommended for 1993 and thereafter, except for the March drawdown test. These actions include lowering pool elevations at the affected reservoirs during all or part of the smolt migration, and discharging additional water during the spring migration season to increase river flow. Volumes to be discharged under the Snake River flow augmentation plan include 900,000 acre-feet (af) in the spring (if the runoff forecast is above 16 million af; otherwise one million af) and 470,000 af in the summer from Dworshak; 137,000 af in July and 100,000 af in September from Brownlee; and 190,000 af in the spring, 137,000 af in August, and 100,000 af in September from the upper Snake River. Under the Columbia River flow augmentation plan, up to three million af would be discharged from Grand Coulee and the upper Columbia River. The estimated direct costs for the operation of the preferred alternative range from $66 million to $93 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: By increasing flows for upstream and downstream migration, the plan would improve the ability of salmon populations to spawn and migrate within the Columbia River system. As a result, populations could increase significantly. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Drawdown of the reservoirs would have an adverse effect on resident fish populations. The lowered pool elevations and flow augmentation actions would result in lost hydroelectric generation and operating flexibility, which in turn would probably result in the necessity of purchasing some power from outside the region. The exposure of reservoir shorelines as a result of drawdowns would detract from their aesthetic quality. LEGAL MANDATES: Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.).

Preparation date: February 25, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - UNION PASS ROAD, BRIDGER-TETON NATIONAL FOREST, WYOMING. AN - 36414014; 3956 AB - PURPOSE: The relocation of Union Pass Road, a connecting road between Pinedale and Dubois, Wyoming, in the Bridger-Teton National Forest, is proposed. The present alignments of Union Pass Road, which was built to accommodate the harvest of timber from the Mosquito-Tepee sale, and another connecting road to Green River Lakes Road, which was built to accommodate the Louisiana-Pacific Corp.'s harvest of timber from the Little Sheep Mountain sale, impinge on private property, cause excessive siltation into Tosi and Tepee creeks, and present safety hazards for motorists. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 2), the existing portion of Union Pass Road from the southern forest boundary to Tosi Creek Bridge, including the segment that crosses the Green River at the existing Kendall Bridge and extends along the west side of the Green River to Tosi Creek Bridge, would be reconstructed. The portion of Union Pass Road from Tosi Creek Bridge to Bacon Ridge would be relocated. The new construction would begin at Tosi Creek Bridge just east of the Retel property. Tosi Creek Bridge would be replaced with a 60-foot-long, 28-foot-wide bridge. The road would head north for a quarter-mile and then follow the ridge line that is northeast of the existing alignment until it connected with the existing Union Pass Road on the east side of Bacon Ridge. A total of 4.9 miles of single-lane road with turnouts would be built, and a total of 11.6 miles of the roadway would be improved. Current erosion and water problems would be corrected primarily by closing and rehabilitating road sections between Snook Moore Road and the existing Union Pass Road at Bacon Ridge, performing spot surfacing and drainage modifications along the private in-holdings access road, and building cattle guards at bridge approaches and fence lines. A half-mile portion of the existing road north of Tosi Creek Bridge would be obliterated to reduce soil erosion. Access to private property would be provided. Construction, monitoring and mitigation, and related activities under the proposal would cost $2,076,855. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the current legal access problem would be solved by relocating the road away from private property holdings. The recreation industries of Dubois and Pinedale would benefit from the increased access to the Upper Green River area. Future maintenance costs under the preferred alternative would be minimal compared with those under alternatives. The preferred alternative also has the lowest potential to adversely affect the habitats of the federally endangered bald eagle and Kendall Warm Springs dace. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Improved road conditions could result in increased traffic, which could cause conflicts between traffic and trailing livestock. The increased traffic could also result in the increased risk of vandalism to the Kendall Warm Springs dace population and habitat. Construction would cause temporary erosion and sedimentation increases, air quality impacts, and the displacement of fish and wildlife.

Preparation date: February 24, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - PROPOSED LOCK REPLACEMENT AT WINFIELD LOCKS AND DAM, KANAWHA RIVER NEAR ELEANOR, PUTNAM COUNTY, WEST VIRGINIA (FINAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF SEPTEMBER 1986). AN - 36413048; 3979 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a lock replacement at the Winfield Locks and Dam on the Kanawha River near Eleanor in Putnam County, West Virginia, is proposed. The Winfield Locks and Dam facility is located at Kanawha River mile 31.1, approximately 27 miles downstream from Charleston. The size of the existing locks is inadequate to accommodate the longer and wider tows in use. The preferred alternative would involve adding an additional lock at the existing project site, continuing to use the riverward lock, and deactivating the present landward lock. The new lock would be 800 by 110 feet. Channel widening downstream from the existing Winfield project also is recommended as part of the improvement plan. Mitigation measures would include on-site, in-kind replacement of a stream, 21 acres of wetland habitat, and 60 acres of high-quality farmland. In addition to the 22 acres of land already owned by the government at the Winfield Locks, the plan would require the acquisition of approximately 36 acres of land for construction of the new lock and approaches and another 145 acres for the disposal of excavated material. Facilities to safely accommodate the public would also be included in the plan. This final supplement to the final EIS addresses the realignment of the proposed new lock. The realignment was determined to be necessary as a result of hydraulic modeling studies which indicated that the alignment proposed in the final EIS would result in unsatisfactory navigational conditions at high-river stages. The realignment project would require the acquisition of 135 additional acres of land for channel alignment and spoil disposal. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The new lock would virtually eliminate delays of tows waiting for passage outside the project approach areas. This in turn would effectively end the recurring disturbance of near-shore habitat by moored tows. Safety would also be improved due to the efficient movement of traffic and the minimization of congestion. The site would be managed as a wildlife area by the West Virginia Department of Natural Resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The required acquisition of 135 additional acres of land for the realignment project would in turn require the relocation of the Noffsinger Cemetery; the development of new wetlands as replacement habitat for the loss of 20 acres of marginal wetlands; and the cleanup of 22 acres of hazardous and toxic materials at the former American Car Foundry, Inc., facility. For the original project, as described in the final EIS, the required acquisition of 181 acres would result in the loss of streams, wildlife habitat, wetlands, a small pond, and prime farmland. Archaeological sites would be impacted, and families occupying mobile and modular homes would be displaced. The lock would also result in some minor adverse impacts to small streams and the Kanawha River. According to this final supplement, the above-mentioned impacts described in the final EIS would be fully mitigated.

Preparation date: February 24, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NEW MADRID NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE, NEW MADRID COUNTY, MISSOURI. AN - 36409935; 3937 AB - PURPOSE: The acquisition by the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) of waterfowl habitat in New Madrid County, Missouri, is proposed. The proposed New Madrid National Wildlife Refuge would be located on floodplain lands in the St. Johns Bayou and Eagles Nest basins. The refuge would be managed to provide and protect habitat for waterfowl, migratory birds, endangered species, and other wildlife; to restore bottomland forests and wetlands; and to improve outdoor recreation and education opportunities. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative F), FWS would purchase 16,600 acres in fee title from willing sellers, using money from the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund, over a 20- to 50-year period. A commitment to limit cropland reduction to a specified level for 25 years would be included to soften impacts on the local agricultural economy. A 125-acre fishing lake would also be built. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would contribute to the objectives of the North American Waterfowl Management Plan, which calls for acquisition and management of up to 144,000 acres along the Mississippi River for mallard duck migration and wintering habitat. Former swampland habitat of the mallard duck and bottomland forest habitat of the wood duck would be restored. Other wildlife would also benefit from habitat improvement. Outdoor recreation and related employment opportunities in the area would increase. Revenue-sharing payments to New Madrid County would greatly exceed present taxes collected. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would remove 4,620 acres from cropland production for 25 years, and an additional 9,840 from production thereafter. Tax revenues collected by the St. Johns Levee and Drainage District and St. Johns Bayou Drainage District would decline. LEGAL MANDATES: Emergency Wetlands Resources Act of 1986, Executive Order 11988, Migratory Bird Conservation Act of 1929, as amended (16 U.S.C. 701-718h), and National Wildlife Refuge System Administration Act (16 U.S.C. 668dd-668jj).

Preparation date: February 22, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - UPPER STEELE BAYOU PROJECT, YAZOO BASIN, MISSISSIPPI (FINAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE REVISED FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF SEPTEMBER 1977). AN - 36414151; 3972 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of flood control measures within two segments of the Upper Steele Bayou Project in the Yazoo Basin in Mississippi is proposed. Flood problems in the Upper Steele Bayou area are significant. Damages total more than $4.5 million annually, including $1 million in the city of Greenville. In addition, almost 66,000 acres of agricultural lands are subject to annual inundation. This final supplement to the final EIS of September 1977 identifies the specific flood control measures which would be taken. Under the proposed plan, approximately 25.3 miles of Main Canal would undergo channel enlargement to a maximum bottom width of 60 feet to convey approximately 70 percent of the existing flows from upstream of Greenville. In addition, two laterals and two in-stream weirs would be improved to enhance urban flood control. Greenville would be provided with 100-year-frequency protection, and agricultural areas south of the city would be provided with five-year-frequency protection. Because of the environmental sensitivity of Leroy Percy State Park, proposed work along the lower 6.3 miles of Black Bayou would be limited to selective clearing and snagging. Upstream from this reach, and throughout the bayou's remaining 30.2-mile length, its bottom would be deepened by two feet and one bank would be cleared. Approximately 30 percent of the existing flows from upstream of Greenville would be carried in Black Bayou. The proposed dredging and clearing would provide a frequency level of protection to agricultural areas of two to three years. Project features would include 78 small grade/water control structures along the stream banks within rights-of-way, and 250 acres (over 10.2 miles) of riparian forest buffers along the lower reaches of Black Bayou and Main Canal. Approximately 5,250 acres of frequently flooded agricultural lands would be acquired in fee title and reforested to compensate for wetland and terrestrial habitat losses. The estimated cost of the proposed plan is $31.5 million and the benefit-cost ratio is 1.5. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed project, the risks of costly flooding on both urban and agricultural lands would be substantially reduced. The flood control measures identified in this final supplement are economically feasible and environmentally sustainable. Features are incorporated which reduce maintenance requirements and sediment inflow while concurrently providing improved habitat for fish and wildlife. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed project, approximately 424 acres of wooded wetlands and 63 acres of farmed wetlands would be lost due to right-of-way impacts. These losses would be in addition to the 2,204 acres of bottomland hardwoods displaced since construction commenced in 1976.

Preparation date: February 18, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CODY TO YELLOWSTONE HIGHWAY, US HIGHWAY 14/16/20, PARK COUNTY, WYOMING. AN - 36412880; 3957 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement to 27.5 miles of US 14/16/20 from west of Cody, Wyoming, to Yellowstone National Park are proposed. The highway is one of five principal points of access to the park, and over half a million visitors annually enter the park via the highway. The section of the highway slated for improvement is located entirely within the Shoshone National Forest and follows the North Fork of the Shoshone River. The highway was built in the 1930s, and in May 1991 was designated a scenic byway by the Forest Service. From 1980 to 1991, 187 accidents occurred along the 27.5 miles of the highway under consideration; two of those accidents involved fatalities. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under Build Alternative A, the existing highway would be improved in its current location. The improved highway would consist of two 12-foot lanes, two 6-foot shoulders, a clear zone, and shifts of 40 feet or less off the existing centerline of the road. In a few locations, the 50-mile-per-hour (mph) design speed would not be achieved. Design standards would be compromised in four locations (mileposts 13.5, 15.7, 23.6, and 26.5) in order to minimize impacts to the landscape. Build Alternative B is identical to Alternative A throughout 19.5 miles, or 71 percent, of the project's length. The remaining eight miles would be reconstructed in alternate locations under Alternative B, with ""alternate location'' being defined as any shift off the current centerline of 40 feet or more. Such a shift would occur in 12 locations, including two or three new crossings of the North Fork of the Shoshone River. A 50-mph design speed would be maintained throughout the project's entire length; design standards would be compromised in the same four locations as under Alternative A. The Forest Service is considering two related alternatives that would involve renovating recreational facilities along the highway or developing new ones. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The highway improvements would reduce existing hazardous driving conditions for visitors entering Yellowstone from the east and result in a facility built, for the most part, to current design standards with sufficient capacity to accommodate projected traffic for the next 20 years. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The highway would encroach on 2.8 to 3.8 acres of floodplains, displace 2.0 to 2.5 acres of wetlands, and disturb 262 to 328 acres of land. Seven public campgrounds, picnic areas, or interpretive sites would be adversely affected by the proximity of highway construction. Wildlife would be temporarily adversely affected during construction, and some species would experience a permanent loss (131 to 139 acres) of crucial winter range. Eight historic or archaeological properties would be adversely impacted by Alternative A; four, by Alternative B.

It is a companion to the Instruction Report 'Sampling Design for Reservoir Water Quality Investigations'. Four programs were developed to assist the user with problems with sampling design and its evaluation. The programs aid the decision-making process in sampling design through the use of decision matrices (the DECMATRX program). Sampling design evaluation is performed using variance component analysis (the VARCOM program), error analysis (the ERROR program), and cluster analysis (the CLUSTER program). The purpose of this user's manual and the SDS disk provided with it is to assist the user in the implementation of these programs and is not intended to provide instruction on the assumptions and calculation methods of the statistical techniques used by these programs. The Bibliography presents a number of sources for basic statistics, sampling design, and more advanced statistical topics.

Some of these disposal sites are now full, and plans are under way to cover the disposal area with dredged material and, later, to establish vegetation. The capping process, however, poses some environmental concerns that must first be cleared through the Texas Department of Water Resources. These concerns relate to whether there is any rate of upward migration of soluble salts (if any) from the bauxite residue into the dredged material under normal environmental conditions, and what the effect is of dredged material depth, sand layer, and geotextile placement interface on plant growth and soil chemical properties. The research currently being conducted to address these concerns can be classified into three parts: laboratory geochemical and geotechnical analyses, field study, and computer-based numerical study. At this stage of research, it is too early to draw significant conclusions. The ideal barrier to be used as the interface should have minimum vertical permeability and maximum horizontal permeability. Final results will be obtained after comparisons of the laboratory, field, and computer modeling results.

AN - 36404725; 3978 AB - PURPOSE: The designation and use of a new ocean dredged-material disposal site (ODMDS) offshore from Norfolk, Virginia, is proposed to provide for disposal of material dredged from the lower Chesapeake Bay and Norfolk Harbor channels. On the average, four million to five million cubic yards (cy) of material is dredged annually from federal channels in the lower bay and Norfolk Harbor. This dredged material is predominantly mud, clay, and silt taken primarily from the industrialized Hampton Roads/Elizabeth River area. The remaining material consists of sand, gravel, and shell taken mainly from the Thimble Shoal and Cape Henry channels. Currently, dredged material from these two areas is disposed of within the Craney Island Containment Area and the Dam Neck Ocean Disposal Site offshore from Virginia Beach. The Craney Island Containment Area is approaching its fill capacity; it is estimated that the area may be filled by the year 1997 under current management strategies. The Dam Neck Ocean Disposal Site is designated primarily for the disposal of material from the Thimble Shoal, Cape Henry, and Atlantic Ocean channels. Sediments from these areas consist mostly of fine- to medium-grain sands that meet ocean disposal criteria. The Dam Neck Ocean Disposal Site, however, has a limited capacity and is located in an area where significant environmental impacts could result from the disposal of materials other than those designated for disposal at that site. Under the currently proposed action, a Norfolk Ocean Disposal Site would be designated on the continental shelf offshore from Norfolk. The proposed site, which would be capable of receiving 250 million cy of material during the next 50 years, is located 17 nautical miles east of the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay. Location coordinates for the center of the site are 36 degrees, 59 minutes north latitude and 75 degrees, 39 minutes west longitude. The site has a radius of four nautical miles and water depths ranging from 43 to 85 feet. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The availability of the dredged-material disposal site would allow for the disposal of material dredged to maintain the usefulness of Norfolk Harbor, thereby ensuring the economic viability of the associated port and transportation facilities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would adversely impact water quality and alter site bathymetry and sediment composition. Disposal activities would result in temporary turbidity and would smother benthos and some demersal fish. Monitoring and management programs would be established to prevent any adverse long-range environmental impacts.

AN - 36414122; 3962 AB - PURPOSE: The designation of the Navy Ocean Disposal Site, located offshore from San Francisco, California, as the site for the disposal of dredged material from new construction dredging at Naval Air Station (NAS) Alameda and Naval Supply Center (NSC) Oakland, both located on the east side of San Francisco Bay, is proposed. NAS Alameda is located on the bay at the west end of the city of Alameda. NSC Oakland is located on the bay at the west end of the city of Oakland. At NAS Alameda, the new dredging would deepen carrier berthing areas to 50 feet below mean lower low water (MLLW); the current depth of these areas is 42 feet below MLLW. At NSC Oakland, the new dredging would deepen the present maintenance level for supply ships from 35 feet to 38 feet below MLLW, and to 41 feet below MLLW in pier and channel areas. Dredging quantities would be approximately 350,000 cubic yards (cy) at NAS Alameda and 850,000 cy at NSC Oakland. This final supplement to the final EIS of August 1990 presents additional analysis of the Navy Ocean Disposal Site. The site, which occupies approximately 3.2 nautical square miles, is located approximately 55 nautical miles west of the Golden Gate Bridge in the southwest corner of the former Chemical Munitions Dumping Area, on the lower continental slope, at a water depth of 2,900 meters. Throughout a six- to nine-month period, approximately 1.2 million cy of dredged material would be transported to the site by split-hull, oceangoing barges. The area of seafloor impacted would be minimized by the use of precise navigational equipment, disposal operations logs, and operations reviews to ensure that each barge load was deposited in the same location each time. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Deeper channel depths would provide adequate clearance for aircraft carriers and supply ships entering NAS Alameda and NSC Oakland, respectively. The proposed disposal site, because it is located off the continental shelf, is not a prime fishing area; furthermore, it has been used as a waste disposal site in the past. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed disposal would result in sediment accumulation of up to 10.5 inches. Pelagic marine organisms directly beneath disposal barges could be engulfed by descending materials, while sessile benthic organisms in the project area could be smothered by sediment.

Preparation date: January 27, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - TIJUANA ESTUARY TIDAL RESTORATION PROGRAM, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36405013; 3932 AB - PURPOSE: The restoration of the Tijuana Tidal Estuary Reserve, located within the Tijuana River National Estuarine Research Reserve in southern California, is proposed. The Tijuana River basin has a watershed area of approximately 1,700 square miles, with 455 square miles lying in the United States and 1,245 square miles lying in Mexico. The river is formed by the confluence of the Rio de las Palmas and Rio Alamar in Mexico and then flows for 17 miles to the Pacific Ocean. It crosses the U.S. border just north of the city of Tijuana, Baja California, and approximately five miles from the mouth of the estuary. The estuary reserve is located in a Mediterranean-type climate that has rainfall and runoff restricted to brief periods within the cooler seasons. Climate in the area is also characterized by high interannual variations in rainfall and runoff. The project area includes the lower Tijuana River Valley, which lies in the United States. Over the years, the tidal prism in the estuary has decreased, from 1,550 acre-feet in 1852 to 290 acre-feet in 1989. In 1852, the tidally influenced portion of the estuary comprised approximately 870 acres; today it comprises 330 acres. The 1852 tidal slough channels extended into the estuary over 3,000 feet east, 5,000 feet north, and 2,000 feet south of the tidal inlet. While these tidal channels still extend into the same portions of the estuary, the northern channel is migrating eastward into the erosion-resistant headland and the southern channels are constricted due to sedimentation. The mouth of the estuary has shrunk from 1,000 feet in 1852 to 100 feet at present. To ensure that the tidal restoration program resulted in maximum restoration benefits and minimal adverse environmental impacts, implementation would be phased on the basis of a carefully designed adaptive management monitoring protocol and design review process. Adaptive management begins by recognizing what is unknown or too variable to be predicted; it involves a process whereby alternatives can be suggested and tested, and small-scale projects can be implemented and evaluated, prior to the undertaking of full-scale projects. The management activities for which results are uncertain become the experimental treatments of a pilot program. Results of initial experiments or trials are then evaluated in order to select the approach for later projects. Inherent in adaptive management is the need for long-term ecosystem-level monitoring. The original tidal restoration program, as presented in the draft EIS, was to have consisted of two related projects, a model project and a 495-acre restoration project. On the basis of subsequent comments received, the program has been changed so that initially, only the model project (the preferred alternative) would be undertaken. Supplemental environmental analysis of the 495-acre restoration project is required prior to its approval and commencement. The model project would involve building a 20-acre experimental marsh, widening a portion of Oneonta Slough, and building a channel to connect Oneonta Slough with the tidal lagoons. If approved, the 495-acre restoration project would be implemented as a series of modules, and would consist of the restoration of an additional 495 acres of tidal marsh, the construction of a river training structure, the stabilization of sand dunes, and the restoration of riparian ecosystem restoration. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Program implementation would provide measures to plan and ensure the long-term protection of the Tijuana estuary ecosystem. A key element of the program would be to return the estuary to a state in which tidal flushing is self-maintaining. Another important element would be to develop a restoration plan that is based on what has been learned about the estuary's historic condition and what can be achieved under existing constraints. Residual benefits would include those related to water quality, biological resources, cultural resources, land use, transportation and circulation, aesthetics, and recreation resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The 495-acre restoration project could result in increased surface water levels and increased surface water and groundwater salinity in the eastern end of the reserve. All of which, in turn, could result in the loss of riparian habitat, which could possibly adversely affect the endangered least Bell's vireo. Small portions of marsh habitat would be displaced due to slough widening, and excavation of the marsh under the restoration project would adversely affect 252 acres of transitional habitat, 152 acres of disturbed lands, 14 acres of mule fat-dominated riparian habitat, 37 acres of salt marsh/salt panne habitat, and 35 acres of mixed transition/disturbed habitat. Berm and levee construction would adversely affect small parcels of a variety of habitats. An erodible berm or riprap levee would substantially change the existing predominantly flat landscape. Archaeological resources could also be disturbed, and the project would result in losses in agricultural production adjacent to the reserve. Recreational use of a portion of the estuary would be limited by the development of the marsh and by resource use restrictions.

Preparation date: January 27, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - HICKORY EAST SIDE THOROUGHFARE FROM NC 127 TO STARTOWN ROAD, HICKORY, CATAWBA COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA. AN - 36404678; 3951 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of an arterial highway link in east Hickory, North Carolina, is proposed. The multilane highway, to be called the Hickory East Side Thoroughfare, would extend approximately seven miles. It would begin at North Carolina (NC) 127 north of Hickory, connect to Interstate 40 (I-40) east of Hickory, and continue to US 70 in the vicinity of Startown Road. The highway would include a grade separation structure at Highland Avenue and the Southern Railway tracks, an interchange at I-40, a five-lane section with a continuous left-turn lane, and a four-lane divided section with a grass median. Eight alternative alignments for the highway are being considered in this final EIS. Each alternative comprises various combinations of six distinct corridor segments, each 400 feet wide. Build Alternative 1 has been selected as the preferred alternative. Under the preferred alternative, the highway would follow the alignment identified in the state Transportation Improvement Program and in the Hickory-Newton-Conover Urban Area Thoroughfare Plan. This final EIS is an abbreviated EIS containing corrections to the draft EIS, additional details on the preferred alternative, and responses to public comments. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The thoroughfare would help the area meet transportation demands through the year 2010, relieving congestion on existing roads and improving highway safety; advance the objectives of the planned loop system identified in the Hickory-Newton-Conover Urban Area Thoroughfare Plan; maintain air quality within state and federal standards; and improve access to and between residential neighborhoods, industrial areas, and commercial centers. In addition, development would be encouraged in accordance with the local land development plan, and the tax base would be improved. Substantial monetary user benefits would result. Actions under the preferred alternative would provide the highest user benefits of all the alternatives being considered, including the highest traffic utilization rate, net user savings, and benefit-cost ratio. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: In addition to the residential and business relocations, increases in traffic noise, probable encounter with underground storage tanks containing hazardous substances, and displacement of prime farmland discussed in the draft EIS, the preferred alternative would result in the loss of 0.72 acres of wetlands. The preferred alternative would also cross six streams and their associated tributaries and result in the relocation of approximately 220 feet of stream.

AN - 36405157; 3976 AB - PURPOSE: The clearing and disposal of polluted sediments from federal navigation channels in Cleveland Harbor in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, is proposed. The harbor is located at the mouth of the Cuyahoga River on the south shore of Lake Erie. Currently, approximately 300,000 cubic yards (cy) of material is dredged from the harbor's navigation channel each year. Most of this material is classified as polluted and unsuitable for open-lake discharge. The material is discharged into the Site 14 confined disposal facility (CDF) located adjacent to the east entrance channel of the harbor. Because this CDF is nearly full, a new CDF or alternative measures are needed to keep the channel clear. The preferred alternative involves construction and use of a new stone rubble-mound, diked CDF, designated as Site 10B, to be located just northwest of and adjacent to the Burke Lakefront Airport. The new CDF would be 68 acres in size and have the capacity to hold approximately 3.84 million cy of consolidated dredged material, giving it an effective project life of about 15 years. Six sewer line outflows would be relocated or extended through the site at a cost of $3.98 million; this cost would be borne by local sponsors. The total estimated construction cost of the project is $32.88 million; the benefit-to-cost ratio is 1.78. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The development and use of Site 10B would have a positive, stimulative effect on community and regional growth, business and industry, and employment and income. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Dredging, the disposal of dredged material, and the construction of the stone dike would result in temporary localized turbidity, the resuspension of sediment in the water column, and the disruption or destruction of benthic and planktonic organisms in the channel and disposal site.

AN - 36396792; 3974 AB - PURPOSE: The restoration of a protective and recreational beach along the reach of shore between Asbury Park and Manasquan in Sandy Hook, New Jersey, is proposed. The proposed action is Section II of the ""Atlantic Coast of New Jersey from Sandy Hook to Barnegat Inlet Beach Erosion Control,'' a federal project first authorized under the River and Harbor Act of 1958. Under the proposed action, nine miles of beach would be filled with 4,864,700 cubic yards (cy) of sand, and the beach would be renourished with 2,639,400 cy every six years. Material for the construction and periodic renourishment of the project would be obtained from offshore borrow areas. The designed beach berm would be 100 feet wide and have an elevation of ten feet above mean low water. Twenty existing groins would be notched in order not to interfere with littoral drift, and several drainage outfalls would be extended seaward. The initial project cost would be $48,060,500; the federal portion of the initial cost would be $31,501,600. Combined initial and renourishment costs over the 50-year project life would be approximately $263.15 million. Twelve alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are described in this draft EIS; only the proposed action is currently under consideration. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Over the years, erosion has seriously reduced the ability of the shoreline in the project area to provide adequate protection from coastal storms, inundation from ocean surges and the flooding of the Manasquan River, and wave attack. Continuation of this trend will increase the potential for economic losses, as the regional economy relies heavily on recreational beach usage, and the threat to human life and safety. The project would reduce storm damage and benefit recreational resources. Discounted average annual benefits would be $5.686 million for damage reduction, $279,000 for land erosion reduction, $2.528 million for reduced maintenance, and $3.385 million for recreation, resulting in a benefit-to-cost ratio of 1.4. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would cause the temporary disturbance of biotic habitats in the sand borrow areas and along the littoral zone in the immediate area of beach renourishment.

Preparation date: January 13, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - RIVER MAINTENANCE PROGRAM FOR THE RIO GRANDE--VELARDE TO CABALLO DAM, RIO GRANDE AND MIDDLE RIO GRANDE PROJECTS, NEW MEXICO (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MARCH 1977). AN - 36409618; 3975 AB - PURPOSE: The operation and maintenance activities along the floodway of the Rio Grande from Velarde, New Mexico, to areas within the conservation pool elevations of Elephant Butte Reservoir and Caballo Dam are proposed. Velarde is located 85 miles northeast of Albuquerque in north-central New Mexico, and Caballo Dam is located approximately 20 miles south of the town of Truth or Consequences in the south-central part of the state. The project area is 286 river miles long, and is confined by parallel levees, levee and river bluffs, or bluffs at various restrictions. This draft supplement to the final EIS of March 1977 examines a mix of river maintenance techniques that would have a more positive effect than past practices had on the river's geomorphology and environment. Past practices consisted primarily of floodway vegetative clearing, pilot channeling, and construction of jetty fields; channel maintenance relied heavily on the removal of islands and bars. The proposed action in this draft supplement is to implement the following maintenance techniques selectively throughout ten reaches of the river: (1) bank stabilization measures, including the use of revetments, curve reshapings, and plantings to stabilize riverbanks; (2) river training works for influencing flow alignment and controlling and managing overbank flows; (3) sediment removal to maintain flow capacity; (4) vegetation control to increase the floodway's capacity to pass high flows; (5) snag removal to prevent the obstruction and/or deflection of river flows; and (6) levee maintenance. Two other alternatives are also considered in this draft supplement, a No Action Alternative and a No Additional Federal Action Alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Implementation of the proposed maintenance techniques would help New Mexico meet its water obligation to Texas under the Rio Grande Compact without curtailing its own water use; would conserve both surface water and groundwater in the Rio Grande basin; would reduce the rate of aggradation in the Rio Grande floodway; and would provide effective floodway maintenance. Bank stabilization, river training works, and sediment removal would each save farmland, bosques, and existing residential and commercial development. Sediment removal would also prevent overbank flooding. The containment of the Rio Grande within the floodway through levee maintenance would negate the loss of property and/or life. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Bank stabilization measures would disturb riverbank vegetation initially, although these measures would provide long-term benefits by controlling riverbank erosion. The construction of groins and dikes for river training works would smother sessile aquatic organisms, while pilot channeling and follow-up maintenance would prevent the long-term establishment of aquatic communities. The program could adversely affect three endangered species: the bald eagle, the whooping crane, and the peregrine falcon.

Preparation date: January 8, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - MARIN COUNTY SHORELINE STUDY, SAN RAFAEL CANAL TIDAL FLOOD DAMAGE REDUCTION, MARIN COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36410744; 3964 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan to protect the city of San Rafael in Marin County, California, from flooding along the San Rafael Canal is proposed. The canal is located within the city, on the northwestern shoreline of San Francisco Bay. Low-lying areas along the canal are subject to periodic flooding due to high storm runoff or extreme high tides. Most of the 0.6-square-mile flood-prone area consists of urban development on former tidal marshland. Existing levees, walls, and banks along the canal are not high enough to prevent overtopping during extreme high tides. The area immediately south of the canal is particularly subject to tidal flooding as well as freshwater flooding due to poor drainage of storm runoff. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. The respective action alternatives consist of (1) a tide barrier with pump stations in the canal; (2) a tide barrier with pump stations on land; and (3) a concrete-capped, sheet-pile floodwall along low sections of the south bank of the canal. The third alternative is the recommended plan. Under the recommended plan, the first section of the floodwall would begin approximately 250 feet upstream from the Francisco Boulevard West crossing of San Rafael Creek and continue east under Highway 101 to the Irwin Street bridge. The second section would extend from Grand Avenue to the west side of the turning basin, and the third section, from the east side of the turning basin to the entrance to the San Rafael Yacht Harbor. The final section would extend from the existing pump station at the southern tip of the yacht harbor to the northwest corner of Pickleweed Park, and would connect with a levee across the north side of the park's recreation field. The combined length of the floodwall sections would be approximately 10,000 feet. The top of the floodwalls and levee would have an elevation of 7.9 feet national geodetic vertical datum (NGVD), except along the east side of Pickleweed Park, where the elevation of the new levee would increase to 9.7 feet NGVD. A sheet-pile floodwall would also be built along a 1,600-foot reach of the bayfront levee on the east side of the ""Canalways'' parcel. This levee would be capped with an asphalt maintenance road. Fish and wildlife mitigation measures would be incorporated into the project design. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 95 percent of the potential flood damage to the area would be eliminated, virtually removing any safety hazard due to flooding. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The recommended floodwall would reduce tidal circulation within an 0.8-acre area of the canal. It would displace approximately 0.1 acres of diked wetland at Pickleweed Park; 1.0 acre of ruderal habitat; 0.4 acres of irrigated turf; and 0.2 acres of available salt marsh habitat for the harvest mouse. It would also partially obstruct views of the canal from some residences. Construction activities would require the temporary removal of docks, would cause temporary, localized turbidity, and could interfere with commercial boat ramps and cranes.

The data represents the availability of over 1.5 gigabytes of global data in a single standard GIS format for use by scientists and educators. A portion of this paper is a tutorial on how to use this for purposes of learning GRASS and for application to questions of climatic change. Because the GLOBAL GRASS CDROM data are all in the same simple format, users of other GISs as well as GRASS users have immediate access to large amounts of environmentally significant global data. These sets of data are chosen for wide distribution because these concerns have been identified as the most useful data for a variety of purposes. It is intended that this tutorial for global environmental analysis can be used at the high school and grade school level educational systems. Since the GLOBAL GRASS CD-ROMs are inexpensive and the GRASS GIS is public domain, this configuration of global data, powerful GIS, and tutorial empowers the widest audience to become involved in global analysis questions. When the exercises in the tutorial are completed, the user will confidently be able to explore the character of the earth with the latest technology.

This study examines Holocene rates of soil carbon accumulation along a latitudinal transect in northern Alaska as an analog for future change in the Arctic. Both paleoclimatic and latitudinal trends support the argument that long-term carbon storage in far-northern ecosystems (arctic and subarctic) increases with increasing temperature. This suggests that far-northern ecosystems will, over the long term (centuries to millenia), continue to act as a small sink for atmospheric CO (sub 2) following global warming, which will provide a small negative feedback on global warming. However, recent studies also suggest the possibility that over the short term (decades to centuries), overall carbon loss from the Arctic might also provide a strong positive feedback on global warming.

The composition of construction materials changes constantly, with the content of synthetic organic compounds and aluminium increasing since the 1940s. Today, construction wastes, which may experience a similar increase, are among the most abundant waste materials. A mass balance of a full scale construction waste sorting plant yielded the following results: the separation produced an organic fraction (25%), which is best treated in a municipal solid waste (MSW) incinerator, a metal fraction (3%) well suited for iron recycling, and two inorganic fractions (45 and 27% respectively) of a composition similar to the average earth crust. According to the composition and the reaction with water, leachates from landfills of construction wastes as well as of inorganic sorting fractions have to be treated for several decades. The chemical behaviour of the inorganic fractions is different from virgin construction materials. Thus, in order to reuse these fractions, specific additional experiments are needed. The potential of the mechanical sorting process to separate according to chemical properties appears to be limited. Nevertheless, the sorting fractions are better suited for landfilling and reuse than the initial construction waste.

Several papers and presentations at this workshop will detail the overall results and recommendations of that demonstration. Confined area aquaculture benefits the Corps and local sponsors by making available new upland dredged material containment areas. By providing local land owners an economic incentive to make their lands available without interruption of normal dredge placement operations, the Corps can better fulfill its mission to maintain the nation's navigable waterways. By cooperating with the Corps, the aquaculturist can, at a fraction of the cost of constructing a new site, develop a viable contained aquaculture site. The land-owner can then develop the site himself or lease it to an aquaculturist, providing the land-owner with a positive economic benefit.

Numerous safety standards, regulations and policies have been developed and issued to prescribe specific controls to reduce the risks presented by a great variety of hazards. Such standards serve a useful purpose. However, there are times when the use of traditional or standard means of hazard control is not feasible or even possible and an "equal or better" alternative must be found. Hazard control rating codes are introduced as a means for testing the equivalence of alternative hazard controls. This approach combines the energy barrier concept with the system safety precedent concept to provide a means for qualitative assessment of the relative effectiveness and reliability of the various hazard control means that may be available. Illustrative examples applying the concept are included and a step by step guide in its application is provided.

Since the first reported incidents in 1980, a reduction in sea turtle deaths from dredging operations have resulted from modifications in dredging equipment, operational procedures, and management practices. More complete sea turtle life history information is necessary to develop long-term management plans as well as modifications in dredging technology to most effectively minimize sea turtle mortalities during dredging activities. A multifaceted sea turtle research effort has been initiated along the south Atlantic coast by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to develop these management strategies. The studies include both biological and engineering research approaches and include cooperative participation from the academic community and state and Federal agencies. Integrated trawling surveys and biotelemetry monitoring are being used to provide basic biological information on the life history, behavior, and spatial/temporal occurrence of sea turtles in south Atlantic ship channels maintained by hopper dredging. These data are being used to define and refine windows of time for dredging activities when turtles are absent or least abundant. Measures which are being tested which show potential for reducing turtles mortalities include: trawling to capture and relocate turtles; hydroacoustics to detect turtle presence; techniques to disperse turtles from the dredging pathway; a flexible turtle deflector attached to the draghead; and a new draghead design. Deterrent or dispersal techniques which show promise include seismic/acoustic pneumatic devices, sound, and physical disturbance. JF - ASCE, NEW YORK, NY (USA). pp. 6-17. 1993.

After 24 h, fish were killed and microsomes were prepared from liver homogenates. Microsomal preparations were analysed for cytochromes P450, P420 and b5, and ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase (EROD) activity. Three different forms of cytochrome P450 were determined by immunoblotting. At all TBT doses, cytochrome P420 was produced, by denaturation of cytochrome P450, and EROD activity was decreased, while cytochrome b5 content remained unaffected. Immunoblot analysis showed considerable losses of P450E at the 2 lower TBT doses, but loss of P450A and P450B occurred only at the highest dose. Degradation of hepatic microsomal proteins at the highest TBT dose was demonstrated electrophoretically, but no histopathological changes were noted. Analysis of organotin residues in the liver indicated that at the low and medial TBT doses, metabolism of TBT to di- and mono-butyltin occurred, but that this was reduced at the highest dose.

Operating at low filtration rates (0.5-2.0 m per h) with grain sizes in the range 5-50 mm, roughing filters were able to produce water with low particulate concentrations, allowing further treatment in slow sand filters without risk of solids overload. Sedimentation was shown, on the basis of theoretical considerations, to be the principal transport mechanism for particle separation in gravel-type filters. Calculations of particle transport trajectories in horizontal and vertical flow filters suggested that horizontal pores were more efficient particle collectors.

The filter was randomly packed with a plastic pipe carrier material. Once started, the filter adapted within 5-7 d to changes in operating conditions, which included shutdown, loads varying from 1.6 to 25 kg COD per m3.d, and reactor acidification. Below a load of 20 kg COD per m3.d, 90 per cent of COD was removed. Methane production was 0.40-0.53 m3 methane per kg COD removed and specific sludge production of 0.1 kg particulate COD per kg COD removed. Profiles of dissolved COD with filter height were obtained, showing the greatest removal in the lowest levels. Biomass was distributed 40 and 60 per cent within the pore spaces and attached to the packing respectively. Buffer had to be dosed to maintain a pH around 7. A simple model of the reactor enabled its results to be used for design purposes.

The state variables of CE-QUAL-ICM included multiple forms of algae, carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and silica and also dissolved oxygen. In applications during the period 1984-1986 the model successfully simulated water column and sediment processes affecting water quality, including formation of the spring algal bloom following the annual peak in nutrient runoff, break-up of summer anoxia, and the coupling of nutrient and water fluxes in sediment water with organic particle deposition.

Laboratory simulations of some of the important chemical reactions in this cycle were conducted. Gamma radiation was used to produce hydroperoxy and superoxide radicals. The redox cycling of iron was markedly affected by the presence of oxalate and trace concentrations of copper, at levels comparable to those observed in atmospheric waters. There are 62 references.

It specified the deficit ratio of the cascade in terms of the Henry's Law coefficients, the molecular diffusion coefficients of the compounds exchanged, and 4 site-specific empirical parameters of the cascade. These, which related to gas exchange from surface and air bubbles, depended on the type of hydraulic control and the hydraulic conditions. The model could be calibrated by measurements of the deficit ratio for at least 4 compounds with widely different physico-chemical properties. Five compounds and sodium fluorescein were injected upstream of the first of 4 cascades. Samples were taken upstream and downstream of each cascade and the compounds sulphur hexafluoride, 1,1,2-trichlorotrifluoroethane, trichloroethene, trichloromethane and tribromomethane analysed by gas chromatography. The model showed that air bubble entrainment was the key factor in gas exchange if the Henry's Law constant was large, and free surface exchange was most significant for low values of the constant. The work demonstrated the deficiencies of the 2-film models of gas exchange.

The deposition area (1.2-3.4 m deep) was surveyed before dredging and periodically up to one year after dredging. Distribution patterns were measured using precision bathymetry. The effects of this thin layer deposition on the marine habitat were also investigated. The placing of thin layers of dredged material could reduce the potential environmental impact of dredged material. Total suspended solids concentrations had little effect on DOC. After dredging, benthic organisms recolonized the dredged area rapidly with some species of fish attracted to the disposal area for a short time.

AN - 36409435; 3879 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of 19.7 miles of Trunk Highway (TH) 33 from its junction with Interstate 35 (I-35) to its junction with TH 53 in Carlton and Saint Louis counties, Minnesota, is proposed. In October 1985, a final EIS (FEIS) was approved for this corridor. This FEIS identified a preferred alternative for the northern rural section and a temporary No-Build Alternative for the southern urban section. This was done to allow more time to study the urban section. A draft supplement on the urban section was issued in 1987 to comply with the FEIS's statement that a supplement would be prepared for this section. This final supplement to the FEIS identifies the preferred build alternative for the urban section and addresses noise mitigation alternatives to the preferred alternative. The urban section would run 6.5 miles, from I-35 to Morris-Thomas Road (County Road 56). Besides the No-Build Alternative, three major alternatives are considered in this final supplement: the West Cloquet Bypass (a bypass west of Cloquet); the East Cloquet Bypass (a bypass east of Cloquet); and the Through-Town Alternative (a route along the existing TH 33), which is the preferred alternative. The Through-Town Alternative would consist of a four-lane expressway with interchanges at TH 53, TH 2, and I-35. A one-mile section of TH 2 would be reconstructed and expanded to four lanes through the interchange with TH 33. The preferred alternative was analyzed by placing approximate alignments within corridors. The corridors were approximately 500 feet wide, except where potential constraints were found. In these areas, the corridor was expanded to a maximum width of 2,000 feet. The Through-Town Alternative would coincide with the existing TH 33 from the junction with I-35 to Morris Thomas Road. It would include bridges over the main channel and a side channel of the Saint Louis River just north of TH 45. While the southern terminus of this project is I-35, the existing TH 33 already consists of a four-lane expressway between I-35 and TH 45. Therefore, no improvements would be proposed for the project south of TH 45. North of TH 45, the existing roadbed would be reconstructed and expanded to a four-lane roadway with a continuous center left-turn lane beginning north of the St. Louis River bridge and extending to just beyond North Avenue. From there the road would change to a four-lane divided expressway. Right-of-way limits would be approximately 100 feet for the reconstructed urban roadway and 200 feet for the divided expressway. The estimated cost of the preferred alternative is $9.5 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide four-lane continuity between the Twin Cities metropolitan area and the Iron Range cities, and would improve accessibility to tourism areas in northern Minnesota. Highway accidents would decrease, primarily along the portion of TH 33 between I-35 and TH 2, and traffic flow through Cloquet would improve. The project would also stimulate business expansion and long-term economic growth in the area. Deficient bridge structures would be replaced or improved. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would displace 23 residences, five of which have already been relocated and four of which are in the process of being relocated. Approximately 24 acres of wetlands would be impacted as would some waterways, including the Saint Louis River near the city of Cloquet. The project would also negatively impact community cohesion in the city of Cloquet.

AN - 36408492; 3881 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of an 18-mile, access-controlled highway providing access to and from the city of Branson, Missouri, is proposed. In recent years the Branson area has experienced extraordinary growth in tourism as a result of newly constructed country music entertainment facilities, theme parks, and other recreational facilities. The new highway, to be known as the Ozark Mountain Highroad, would extend westerly a distance of four miles from the vicinity of the existing US 65/Route F intersection, four miles north of Branson, and then southerly across Lake Taneycomo and southeasterly to another intersection with US 65, approximately five miles south of Branson. In addition to the two interchanges with US 65, the highway would have interchanges at Route 248, Route 76, Route 165, and Route 165/265. To improve the interchange with Route 76, approximately 2,970 feet of Route 76 would be relocated to a site immediately west of the Henning State Forest. The Lake Taneycomo crossing is proposed to be a clear span crossing the lake at a location that would minimize potential impacts to a fish hatchery, which operates on lands leased from the Army Corps of Engineers. The proposed roadway would consist of two traffic lanes in each direction, with full shoulders, separated by a variable-width median. The roadway line and grade would be adapted to fit the rolling terrain of the project area. A design speed of 55 miles per hour is proposed. Four alternatives are under consideration: a No Action Alternative, a Transportation Systems Management Alternative, and Highway Alternatives A and B. The estimated construction cost of the preferred alternative (Alternative A) is $140 million to $165 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide safe, efficient, and convenient traffic service to an area experiencing significant population growth and traffic congestion. The yearly delay on Route 76, the major east-west route, is estimated to be over one million vehicle-hours and approximately 2.4 million to 3.0 million person-hours. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Right-of-way requirements under the preferred alternative would involve the displacement of approximately 23 residences, two businesses, eight acres of prime farmland, and 166 acres of statewide important farmland. Many of the residential displacements would occur in the Table Rock Town site, which would also be impacted by significant increases in highway noise. The new highway would increase storm water runoff carrying roadborne pollutants into the creeks in the project area, and would cross four sites with a moderate-to-high potential for contamination impacts. The proposed alignment would affect several historic properties in the Fall Creek Valley and several prehistoric habitation sites in the Lake Taneycomo area.

AN - 36397019; 3901 AB - PURPOSE: Expanding the capacity of the Port of Los Angeles is proposed in order to accommodate increased cargo traffic and to relocate hazardous and other facilities at the port. The recommended plan would involve dredging navigation channels and turning basins, and using the dredged material to create approximately 582 acres of new landfill, in the harbor. The landfill would support new container terminals, liquid bulk facilities, and dry bulk facilities. The newly created lands and the facilities they would support would be identified as Pier 400. Similar facilities would be relocated on existing lands on Pier 300. The dredging would be conducted in four increments through the year 2005 to create or improve channels within San Pedro Bay. The proposed increments are as follows: (a) deepening the existing 51-foot approach channel, constructing a new channel to Pier 300 to a depth of 63 feet, and disposing of the dredged material to create 143 acres in the Pier 400 area, a 25-acre transportation access corridor to Pier 400, and 91 acres of shallow fill along the San Pedro Breakwater and access corridor; (b) deepening the main channel to Pier 400 from 63 to 81 feet and the south channel from 45 to 75 feet, and expanding Pier 400 by 337 acres; (c) extending the new channel from the end of Piers 300 and 400 to the container terminal area of Piers 300 and 400 at a depth of 45 feet, and expanding Pier 400 by 55 acres; and (d) extending the new channel from the container terminal area of Piers 300 and 400 to the proposed new container terminals on Pier 400 at a depth of 45 feet, and expanding Pier 400 by an additional 22 acres. Throughout the early planning stages of the project, similar changes were considered for the port of Long Beach; however, in October 1991, the port withdrew from the process. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Increasing the capacity of Los Angeles Harbor would help satisfy existing and anticipated demand for the port's facilities, which stems partly from increased trade with Pacific Rim nations. Safety within the harbor would be enhanced due to wider waterway turning capacity. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Dredging and disposal of dredged material would result in temporary localized turbidity and the permanent loss of shallow and soft-bottom habitat. Waters that have high fish nursery value and that have been identified as critical habitat for the foraging activities of the California brown pelican and the endangered California least tern would be lost to the landfill. Increased ship traffic within the harbor would increase the potential for accidental leaks or discharges and oil spills.

AN - 73463818; 1337242 AB - Secondary alkanesulfonate (SAS) and linear alkylbenzene-sulfonate (LAS) surfactants were quantitatively (> 90%) extracted from sewage sludges as their tetrabutylammonium ion pairs using 400 atm of supercritical CO2 for 5 min of static extraction followed by 10 min of dynamic extraction at 80 degrees C. Ion pairs of SAS and LAS quantitatively formed butyl esters in the injection port of the gas chromatograph and were determined by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry without class fractionation of the sewage sludge extracts. Concentrations of SAS and LAS in sludges from five different sewage treatment plants ranged from 0.27 to 0.80 g/kg of dry sewage sluge and from 3.83 to 7.51 g/kg, respectively. Good reproducibility was achieved with RSDs of typically 5% for replicate extractions and analyses. Homologue and isomer distributions of SAS in sewage sludge indicated an enrichment of the more hydrophobic components in sewage sludge during sewage treatment.

PIERCE HARBOR, FLORIDA (GENERAL REEVALUATION REPORT AND SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT). AN - 36410587; 3903 AB - PURPOSE: Improvements to the existing federal project at Ft. Pierce Harbor in Florida are proposed. The city of Ft. Pierce is located on the lower east coast of Florida, approximately 120 miles north of Miami and 225 miles south of Jacksonville. The harbor itself is situated on the Indian River within the city of Ft. Pierce, and access to the ocean is provided via a man-made cut through the barrier island. The existing federal project, completed in 1938, consists of an entrance channel, an interior channel, a turning basin, two protective jetties, and berthing areas. Existing port facilities are used primarily for shipments of citrus, cement, and argonite. At its present depth, the existing channel requires shipments in shallow- to moderate-draft vessels and cannot support larger deep-draft vessels. A final EIS on a proposal to dredge the channel and turning basin was issued in June 1986. However, when state environmental agencies conducted field reconnaissance of the project area in April 1991, a dive survey uncovered a diverse underwater biological community on the rock ledges on the sides of the existing channel and at the edges of the turning basin. This draft supplement to the final EIS evaluates the original proposal, a modified version of that proposal (the Modified Plan Alternative), and a No Action Alternative, and their effects on these biological resources. Under the modified proposal, the channel would be dredged to the same depth and width as in the original proposal: the interior channel would have a design depth of 28 feet and a bottom width of 250 feet, and would extend out to a 30-foot-deep, 400-foot-wide entrance channel. The turning basin would be 28 feet deep and have a diameter of 1,100 feet, with a 28-foot-deep, 250-foot-wide spur channel extending to the north end. The only significant difference between the two proposals is that the modified proposal revises the layout of the turning basin and channel to minimize the amount of rock that would be dredged. Under both proposals, all dredged material that is not of beach-sand quality would be disposed at sea. The total quantity of dredged material would be 1.1 million cubic yards under the original proposal and 795,000 cubic yards under the modified proposal. The modified proposal is the preferred alternative; its benefit-to-cost ratio would be 1.7. The estimated cost for a 28-foot-deep channel would be $8.57 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The improvements in deep-draft navigation would provide economic benefits to shippers and would attract new exporting and importing businesses, which would stimulate the local economy. The modified proposal would alter only one acre of rock/ledge habitat while the original proposal would alter 11.7 acres. Some 5,900 linear feet of beach would be restored to sea turtle nesting habitat. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The newly dredged channel would accelerate beach erosion and increase the volume of material trapped in offshore sandbars, but these effects would be partially offset by the placement of dredged sand on adjacent beaches. There is some possibility that dredged sediments could bury nearby biological communities or that toxic contaminants present in the sediments could enter the food chain and become concentrated in large predators. Some phases of the operation could also affect resident populations of manatees and sea turtles. In addition, some 5.8 acres of rocky channel-edge habitat and 15 acres of productive shallow-water habitat for invertebrates, crustaceans, and fish would be lost.

Preparation date: December 4, 1992 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SAN FRANCISCO BAY DEEP WATER DREDGED MATERIAL DISPOSAL SITE DESIGNATION, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36396987; 3900 AB - PURPOSE: The designation of a permanent ocean disposal site for sediments dredged from San Francisco Bay is proposed. Presently no ocean disposal site is available to accept this dredged material. An estimated six million cubic yards (cy) of material would be disposed of at the designated site each year for a 50-year period beginning in 1994. The total projected dredging volume over the 50-year period is 400 million cy of sediment. All dredged material would be tested to ensure its suitability for ocean disposal. Three alternative sites have been identified as potential disposal sites. All are located in the Pacific Ocean on the continental slope and rise off San Francisco; all are uniform in size, having an oval shape approximately 3.7 nautical miles (nmi) long and 2.2 nmi wide. The site boundaries were established to conform with the model-predicted deposit thickness of ten centimeters, which is the threshold above which impacts are expected to be significant (such as the smothering of bottom-dwelling organisms). The preferred site (Alternative 5) is located on the continental rise, where ocean depths range from 2,500 to 3,000 meters, approximately 49 nmi from the coast and 50 nmi from the Golden Gate Bridge. The Army Corps of Engineers expects that the disposal site would be used throughout the year, except when wave heights exceed three meters and wave periods are nine seconds or less (approximately 10 percent of the time, typically from February through May). However, seasonal restrictions on dredging activities imposed by biological events such as migration, spawning, and nesting activities would also affect use of the disposal site. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The designation of a sediment-disposal site would allow for the maintenance dredging of channels and expansion of dock facilities, which are necessary to sustain economic growth and the strategic use of ports in San Francisco Bay. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Continued use of the site would result in the smothering of some benthic organisms and prevent the reestablishment of the benthic community in any areas where the deposit levels are ten centimeters or more. The preferred site is located in the vicinity of former disposal sites for chemical and radioactive wastes; it is considered unlikely, however, that the dredged materials would interact with these wastes. In fact, the deposition could bury and further isolate these wastes.

Next was to provide the scientific community and regulatory agencies a logical, sequential framework for developing sediment toxicity tests. The third was to identify gaps in knowledge and indicate where additional research is needed. The last was to suggest a process to the regulatory agencies for evaluating and incorporating a sediment bioassay once it has been accepted by the scientific community.

The method uses isoctane as the extractant and a gas chromatograph as the determinative instrument. Both field-contaminated samples and spiked sediments were analyzed and results on the spiked samples indicate that the method has a better than 80% recovery rate for WP. The detection limit for the method is 0.88 microg/kg of soil. The WP recovery is sensitive to the water content of the sediments and to prolonged shaking. Fluidizing the wet sediments by adding water to saturated soil greatly increases WP recovery. Since field samples are contaminated with WP particles of various sizes, subsamples may not accurately represent the concentration of the sample as a whole.

Emphasis is on the use of water transfers during the current drought and how planners and operators of federal, state, and local systems can integrate water transfers into the planning and operations of their systems. Through the California experience, the study identifies motivations for incorporating water transfers into water supply systems, reviews a variety of water transfer types, and discusses the integration of water transfers with traditional supply augmentation and water conservation measures. Limitations, constraints, and difficulties for employing water transfers within existing systems are also discussed. The study focuses primarily on the technical, planning, and operational aspects of water transfers, rather than the legal, economic, and social implications. JF - Research Documents.

Resonance with diurnal wind is responsible for the high amplitudes of the second mode. Two different models are used to calculate the periods and velocity distribution of the various modes of the internal seiche. First, as a natural extension of Mortimer's two-layer model, the eigenvalues of a three-layer model for a rectangular basin are calculated analytically. The period of the second vertical mode is found to depend strongly on the thickness of the metalimnion. Second, in order to better represent the vertical structure of the water column, a continuous stratification model is adopted and solved analytically for realistic density profiles. The resulting vertical variation of the horizontal velocity is used to calculate local gradient Richardson numbers (Ri) and relate them to the vertical eddy diffusivity estimated with the temperature microstructure method.

AN - 36404957; 3907 AB - PURPOSE: Improvements to the Maalaea Harbor on the Hawaiian island of Maui are proposed in order to reduce the surge caused by wave action in the harbor and entrance channel, and the resultant damage to lightweight vessels. The harbor is located on the western end of Maalaea Bay, which forms the southern shoreline of the central isthmus of the island of Maui. The federal portion of the improvements would consist of realigning the entrance channel and modifying the existing breakwater to protect the new entrance channel. The state would provide expanded berthing facilities and improved infrastructure. A final EIS on this proposal was issued in 1980; however, the project remained unfunded until fiscal year 1989. This draft supplement to the final EIS evaluates the proposal in light of changes in environmental conditions and standards. Areas of concern include increases in traffic and noise that would result from harbor expansion, and the loss or degradation of nearby surfing sites. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. No preferred alternative has yet been identified, but Alternative 1, identified in the final EIS as the selected plan, continues to serve as the recommended plan. The plan would extend the existing south breakwater by 620 feet and add a 400-foot-long revetted mole on the seaward side of the existing south breakwater for additional parking and bus turnaround. The plan would also provide an entrance channel 610 feet long, which would vary in width from 150 to 180 feet and in depth from 12 to 15 feet; a 1.7-acre turning basin 12 feet deep; and a main access channel 720 feet long, 80 feet wide, and 8 feet deep. Approximately 80 feet of the existing east breakwater would be removed, and 44,000 cubic yards of material would be dredged from the harbor basin and new entrance channel. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The improvements would significantly reduce damage to boats in the existing berths and would allow for the construction of additional berths in the eastern portion of the harbor, doubling its current capacity. Additionally, the improvements would allow for the berthing of a 110-foot Coast Guard vessel. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction activities would increase dust, vehicle exhaust emissions, and noise levels, and dredging would temporarily degrade water quality. Approximately 2.6 acres of coral reef habitat would be destroyed as a result of dredging the new entrance channel. Harbor activities are likely to interfere with endangered humpback whales in the area. A number of surfing sites (""Off-the-Wall''; ""Buzz's No. 1,'' also known as ""Sea Flight''; ""Buzz's No. 2''; and ""Maalaea Pipeline'') would be lost or degraded; these sites receive the highest quality of breaks.

AN - 36410611; 3880 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a freeway, including a bridge crossing the Missouri River, within Saint Charles and Saint Louis counties, Missouri, is proposed. Under the proposed action, Page Avenue (Route D) would extend from its present terminus at Bennington Place, immediately west of Interstate 270 (I-270) in St. Louis County; proceed across the Missouri River to Route 94 in St. Charles County; and then continue on to either I-70 or Route 40/61 (the future I-64), a distance of 14.4 to 20.95 miles. Five alternatives, including the No-Build Alternative and two build alternatives, each with three subalternatives, are considered in this final EIS. The preferred alternative, the Red Alignment, would be a ten-lane, limited-access highway with a 26-foot-wide median from Bennington Place to Route 94. As part of the Red Alignment, from Hamsath Road to Route N, Route 94 would become an eight- to ten-lane, limited-access highway with a 26-foot-wide median. One-way outer roads would be provided as service roads along this segment. From Route 94 to Route 40/61, the Red Alignment would be a four-lane, limited-access highway with a 70-foot-wide median. Grade separations for Bennington Place would be constructed over the Page Avenue Extension and the west half of a diamond interchange. Grade separations would also be provided at Amiot Drive and Seven Pines Drive, the River Valley Road, Route 94, Motherhead Road, and Henke Road. A bridge approximately 2,800 feet long would span Creve Coeur Lake, Creve Coeur Creek, and associated wooded bottomland. The alignment would also cross portions of the Creve Coeur Lake Memorial Park. The bridge over the Missouri River would extend 3,550 feet and consist of ten 12-foot travel lanes, four ten-foot shoulders, and a three-foot-wide median barrier. Total project costs are estimated to be $320 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The chronic traffic congestion at the Missouri River crossings between Saint Charles and Saint counties would be relieved, and concurrent reductions in energy costs and improvement of air quality would be effected. Additional benefits would be improved traffic flow conditions within Saint Charles and Saint Louis counties on secondary roads and on routes 40/61, I-70, and I-270. Development would continue to occur throughout Saint Charles County; on the proposed alignments induced development would take place at interchanges and along outer roads. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The rights-of-way requirements under the preferred alternative would result in the displacement of 190.3 acres of prime farmland; the relocation of 54 residences and 17 commercial establishments; the traversal of 397.9 acres of the Missouri River floodplain, and the associated loss of 52.9 acres of emergent and wooded wetlands; and the removal of public parkland. Land-use impacts would total 1,926.1 acres.

AN - 36404992; 3886 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a four-lane, limited-access highway in Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, is proposed in order to improve the transportation link between the cities of Scranton and Carbondale. The 15-mile highway would extend from Interstate 81 (I-81) in Dunmore north to US 6 at Whites Crossing, just northeast of Carbondale. Three alternative corridors for the proposed highway were selected from among 25 corridor options identified in the early stages of the study. Alternatives A, B, and C were selected because of transportation effectiveness, engineering issues, and environmental concerns. For purposes of this study, the project area has been divided into four segments. In Segment 1, from the Central Scranton Expressway in Dunmore to Route 247 in Jessup, the selected alternative (Alternative A-2) would follow a northeastern route, at one point moving far to the east to avoid interfering with the operations of the Keystone landfill just outside Dunmore. It would then proceed along the eastern edge of the Mid-Valley Industrial Park. Within this segment, the I-81/84/380 interchange would be reconstructed as would additional lanes southward on I-81 to the point of connection with the Central Scranton Expressway. In Segment 2, from Jessup to Salem Road in Archibald, the selected alternative (Alternative A-1) would shift to the west to avoid affecting an abandoned mining village identified as a major archaeological site. In Segment 3, from Archibald to the Mayfield Borough line, the selected alternative (Alternative CRC-4) would move northwest, passing through a portion of the Aylesworth Lake Project and proceeding to an interchange with an extension of Rushbrook Street, just outside Mayfield. In Segment 4, from the Mayfield Borough line to Whites Crossing on US 6, the selected alternative (Alternative CRC-4) would proceed northeast, passing just south of Childs. An interchange with a new connecting roadway to US 6 in Childs would be provided. The proposed highway would then pass to the east of Carbondale and to the west of Brownell Reservoir, and would then connect directly with US 6 to the north. The selected alternative is substantially similar to the preferred alternative presented in the draft EIS of June 1992, except that the alignment in Segments 3 and 4 has been slightly revised to avoid affecting new and planned residential areas near Mayfield. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed highway would promote economic development within the Lackawanna Valley, which is underserved by the region's expressway network. The highway would improve traffic operations, reduce congestion, and improve safety conditions on US 6, which currently has accident rates that exceed state averages. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: In Segment 1, 40 residences and nine commercial operations would be displaced under the selected alternative; in addition, 1.4 acres within the Dunmore Cemetery, which is eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, would be affected as would 1.24 acres of wetlands and 57 acres of critical habitat. In Segments 3 and 4, three residences and three businesses would be displaced, 326 acres of potential wildlife habitat would be lost, 2.75 acres of wetlands would be destroyed, and property within the Jermyn historic district would be affected, although no structures would be lost. No adverse environmental impacts would occur within Segment 2.

AN - 36404882; 3841 AB - PURPOSE: The realignment of several Army research functions to the newly established Army Research Laboratory (ARL) at Aberdeen Proving Ground (APG) in Harford County, Maryland, is proposed. The establishment of the ARL was recommended by the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission as part of the Army's overall reduction in force structure and consolidation of related operations. The commission proposed that three major operations be relocated to the ARL at APG: the U.S. Army Research Institute Manpower and Personnel Integration (MANPRINT) function in Alexandria, Virginia; the 6.1 (Basic Research) and 6.2 (Exploratory Development) materials elements of the Belvoir Research, Development, and Engineering Center (BRDEC) in Fort Belvoir, Virginia; and the U.S. Army Materials Technology Laboratory (MTL) in Watertown, Massachusetts. Two other operations would also be relocated, although this is not specifically recommended by the commission: the nuclear survivability and assessment functions of the Harry Diamond Laboratories (HDL) in Adelphi, Maryland, and the Army Institute for Research in Management Information, Communications, and Computer Sciences (AIRMICS) in Atlanta, Georgia. These five operations would be located near the three existing Army laboratories that currently operate at APG and that would also become part of the new ARL: the Ballistics Research Laboratory (BRL), the Human Engineering Laboratory (HEL), and the vulnerability assessment function of the Chemical Research, Development, and Engineering Center (CRDEC). Some operations would merge in order to increase efficiency: MANPRINT would merge with the HEL to become the Human Research and Engineering Directorate, and BRDEC would merge with the MTL to form the Materials Directorate. The transfer and consolidation of research functions would result in an increase of approximately 350 positions at APG, most coming from the MTL. Construction of special laboratory facilities, administrative offices, hazardous materials and waste storage facilities, an industrial wastewater treatment facility, and parking facilities would be required. Four alternative construction sites at APG are considered in this final EIS; the preferred site, known as the 4600 Block, consists of approximately 80 acres between Deer Creek Loop on the north and Maryland Boulevard on the south. Construction would begin in May 1993 and be completed by December 1995. POSITIVE IMPACTS: By consolidating related operations, the proposed realignment would decrease budgetary expenditures and improve the overall efficiency of Army research efforts. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the new facilities at any one of the four alternative sites would have minor impacts on peak-hour traffic levels, land use, air quality, geology and soils, and community facilities. Construction at the 4600 Block would require the clearing of one acre of pine forest and the removal of existing underground fuel oil storage tanks. Furthermore, this site is located several miles from the existing BRL and HEL facilities at APG.

Preparation date: November 25, 1992 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - DEL RIO BORDER STATION EXPANSION, DEL RIO, TEXAS. AN - 36410680; 3894 AB - PURPOSE: The expansion of a commercial import inspection lot and dock facility in Del Rio, Texas, near the U.S.-Mexican border is proposed. The Del Rio Border Station and Import Lot and Dock is located northeast of the Rio Grande, three-quarters of a mile inland on the high ground above the river floodplain, at the terminus of the Del Rio-Ciudad Acuna International Bridge. The import lot is used by officials of the U.S. Customs Service, Immigration and Naturalization Service, and Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service to inspect empty and loaded commercial vans and trucks entering the U.S. from Mexico. The import lot presently contains only five usable docks (out of seven dock spaces), and due to the size of the dock platform only one truck can be fully unloaded at one time for detailed inspection. Because of dramatic increases in commercial traffic in recent years, significant traffic congestion and delays have developed at the border station. Under the proposed action (Concept 3), some 52 acres of mostly agricultural land across Rio Grande Street from and northeast of the present station, and eight acres across Spur 277 to the northwest, would be purchased for expansion of the dock facilities. The dock facilities would be built in phases of one 25-space dock module at a time until 100 dock spaces were ultimately built. Fifty dock spaces are needed to handle the anticipated truck traffic throughout the 1990-2020 planning period. Construction of the first module (in Phase II of the plan) would commence as soon as the plan was approved; construction of the second (in Phase III of the plan) would commence in the year 2000. The existing administration building, primary and secondary vehicle inspection facilities, pedestrian inspection facilities, import primary inspection booths (recently renovated under Phase I of the plan), and five-space dock for inspecting empty trucks would continue to be used during the first 10 to 20 years of the planning period. Phase II would involve the construction of a 25-space import dock, an import lot, and an import office. In addition, a new hazardous material inspection/containment area, a bulk cargo compound, truck scales, and a narcotics storage building would be constructed. In the year 2000, under Phase III, an additional 25-space dock plus a new administration building, employee and visitor parking, and inspection booths would be constructed; also in the year 2000, a section of Rio Grande Street bordering the import lot would be closed to vehicular traffic. A 250-foot-wide buffer zone would surround the facility to shield residential areas from noise, light, and other annoying factors. Estimated construction costs range from $14.8 million to $17.4 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed expansion would enable U.S. inspection teams to respond to increased commercial traffic volume at the border station, caused in part by the construction of a new four-lane bridge across the border and by the growing number of maquiladora plants in the area. Construction would generate significant temporary improvement in the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would result in the relocation of one family and the destruction of three residences and two commercial buildings. In addition, farmland currently under cultivation would be converted to commercial uses.

Preparation date: November 19, 1992 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - PROJECT BRF-239(12), WILLIAM S. KELLER BRIDGE REPLACEMENT ON US HIGHWAY 31 IN DECATUR, MORGAN AND LIMESTONE COUNTIES, ALABAMA. AN - 36396398; 3869 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a bridge on US 31 spanning the Tennessee River between Morgan and Limestone counties at Decatur, Alabama, and the removal of the deteriorating historic William S. Keller bridge are proposed. The proposed new bridge and its approaches would be approximately 1.5 miles long, starting in the city of Decatur in Morgan County and extending across the Tennessee River into Limestone County. The William S. Keller Bridge presently is used as two southbound lanes, and a more modern bridge carries the two northbound lanes. The Keller Bridge was erected in 1926 and includes a movable bascule draw that provides the only opening on the structure for the passage of river traffic. The Keller Bridge is a property eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Structures. The newer bridge was constructed at a much greater height and allows river traffic to pass beneath it unhindered. The proposed structure would be erected at a height sufficient to enable river traffic to move freely without disrupting roadway vehicles. The typical section of the new bridge would consist of two 12-foot travel lanes with a ten-foot outside shoulder and a six-foot inside shoulder, thus providing a 40-foot curb-to-curb roadway. Four alternatives are considered in this final EIS, including the No Action Alternative. The preferred alternative would place the new bridge east of and adjacent to the existing high-rise bridge, which would allow the present Keller Bridge to maintain traffic flow during construction of the new bridge. Once the proposed project was completed, the Keller Bridge would be removed, the new bridge would carry northbound vehicles, and the existing high-rise bridge would handle southbound traffic. The estimated cost for this alternative is $14.97 million, and construction time is estimated at two years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed bridge would improve transportation and foster economic growth. The project would enhance safety by providing a roadway facility whose vehicles would not be impeded by the movement of river vessels. Emergency vehicles, such as ambulances, fire trucks, and police cars, would have better access to the surrounding areas. The local economy would be stimulated by the use of materials and labor during construction. The long-term economy of the region, including Decatur's tax base, would be enhanced by the improved ability of industries to transport input materials to local industries and output products to market areas. The Fish and Wildlife Service and the Wheeler Wildlife Refuge would acquire a 16-acre area of drained wetlands that could be restored easily to its former wetland status and be added to the wildlife refuge to offset the loss of approximately six acres of wetlands to right-of-way. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction would result in brief traffic delays, noise, and air quality degradation. The project would also result in temporary erosion and siltation during construction. There would be a small loss of commercial land to right-of-way, and the displacement of one business. Additional right-of-way acquisitions would include the above-mentioned six acres of wetlands from the Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge.

AN - 36409291; 3877 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a three-mile east-west connector highway linking the MD 3 (Interstate 97)/Veterans Highway and MD 2 (Governor Ritchie Highway) transportation corridors in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, is proposed. Currently there is no connection south of MD 100 that provides an adequate link between these two corridors. The existing local roadways, such as Benfield Boulevard and Brightview Drive/Obrecht Road, are unable to accommodate the existing and projected growth in travel demand. In some portions of the project area, traffic volumes are expected to double by the year 2015. In addition to the No-Build Alternative, five build alternatives and three options along three alternative transportation corridors are considered in this draft EIS. Alternatives 2A and 2B would each consist of a new roadway, with two or four lanes, respectively, that would follow the alignment designated in the county master plan. This alignment would intersect MD 3 approximately 2,000 feet north of the Benfield Boulevard intersection, proceed through the Shipley's Choice community, and connect with Mission Street to intersect MD 2. Three options associated with Alternative 2 would each follow alternative routes through and around Elvaton Park, a county-owned facility. Alternatives 3A and 3B would each follow the alignment of the existing Brightview Drive/Obrecht Road corridor, upgrading the roadway and providing two or four travel lanes, respectively. Alternative 4 would involve restriping Benfield Boulevard as a four-lane, undivided roadway between MD 3 and Evergreen Road, where it would convert to three lanes. Estimated project costs range from $1.6 million to $23.5 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: By providing an improved east-west route between two major north-south highways, the project would enhance local economic development, reduce traffic congestion, and improve traffic safety. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would displace up to ten residences under Alternative 2, up to 12 under Alternative 3, and none under Alternative 4. Only one business would be displaced by any of the alternatives. Alternatives 2 and 3 would cross the B&A Trail, and one optional route associated with Alternative 2 would affect Elvaton Park. Up to 27 acres of woodlands would be affected by Alternative 2. Alternative 3 would displace up to three acres of wetlands; other alternatives would have less impact on wetlands.

Preparation date: November 12, 1992 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - HEALY CLEAN COAL PROJECT, DENALI BOROUGH, ALASKA. AN - 36407145; 3846 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of an experimental 50-megawatt coal-fired power-generating facility in Healy, Alaska, is proposed. The site is located along the Nenana River, approximately 4 miles north of the Danali National Park and Preserve and approximately 80 miles southwest of Fairbanks and 250 miles north of Anchorage. The proposed facility would operate adjacently to the existing 25- megawatt Healy Unit No. 1 conventional pulverized-coal facility and would use low-sulfur coal and waste coal from the Usibelli Coal Mine, Inc., Poker Flats Mine, located about 4 miles north of the site. Construction costs would be shared by the Department of Energy (DOE) and the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority under the Clean Coal Technology program. The facility would use innovative combustion and flue gas cleanup technologies to remove sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter from emissions. SO2 and nitrogen oxides are the primary components of acid rain. If successful, the project would speed up the commercialization of both processes, providing private industry with sufficient data to decide whether to purchase the technologies for existing or planned power plants. Construction of the facility would commence in early 1993 and be completed in late 1995; the demonstration period would last for one year. Along with the proposed action, two other alternatives, the No Action Alternative and an alternative site for the project located 4 miles from the proposed site, are also considered in this draft EIS. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would increase U.S. use of domestically produced coal; would improve the U.S. energy industry's competitive position in the world marketplace; and could lessen U.S. reliance on foreign energy sources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Operation of the proposed facility would degrade ambient air quality, but pollutant levels would be well below federal standards. The yellow-brown plume from the facility would be visible on certain days from the nearby national park. The discharge of cooling waters into the Nenana River would alter water temperatures, possibly affecting the fish population and the river's freezing pattern during winter months. Some ten acres of land would be disturbed by the project. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.).

Preparation date: November 12, 1992 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - DAM AND RESERVOIR AT RIO PORTUGUES PROJECT, PONCE, PUERTO RICO (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF FEBRUARY 1974). AN - 36410576; 3912 AB - PURPOSE: Enlargement of the streambed of the Portugues and Bucana rivers through the city of Ponce, Puerto Rico, and construction of two multiple-purpose lakes for flood control, water supply, and recreation, is proposed. Channel modifications would enlarge 5.7 miles of the Bucana River, with floodway levees along the lower portion; enlarge 2.1 miles of the Portugues River; and create a 1.3-mile diversion channel from the Portugues River to the Bucana River in the southern section of Ponce. A diversion dam and grated culvert on the Portugues River downstream from the diversion channel would maintain low flows in the lower 2.5 miles of the river. Dam sites would be located on the Portugues and Cerrillos (upper Bucana) rivers. Since preparation and circulation of the final EIS of February 1974, the Cerrillos Dam and downstream water improvements have been completed, but the Portugues Dam has not yet been constructed. The concrete double-curvature elliptical-arch dam, curved in both the vertical and horizontal planes, would be built at the site discussed in the final EIS, in the upper Rio Portugues Valley. Construction would occur in two phases. In the first phase, the dam would be constructed to a height of 219.6 feet above ground elevation; the resulting pool would cover 215 acres. In the second phase, the dam would be raised 51 feet and the pool increased to 320 acres. The purpose of this draft supplement to the final EIS is to document changes in the design of the dam and reservoir project that have occurred since 1974. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide flood mitigation, drinking water, and recreational opportunities to the residents of Ponce and surrounding residential areas. Opportunities for sport fishing would be expanded. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Dam and reservoir development and operation would displace 68 houses, three commercial buildings, and one school. A section of Highway PR 503 and a secondary road leading to it would require relocation. Dam construction and operation would change the predominant fish habitat type from a fast-flowing highland stream to a deep lake, causing changes in population and species dominance.

Preparation date: November 9, 1992 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - ABIACA CREEK WATERSHED, DEMONSTRATION EROSION CONTROL PROJECT, YAZOO BASIN, MISSISSIPPI. AN - 36398534; 3909 AB - PURPOSE: Sediment and flood control measures are proposed for the Abiaca Creek watershed (ACW) in portions of Carroll, Holmes, and Leflore counties in the Yazoo Basin of Mississippi. Two alternatives, including the No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative would include 10.6 miles of new-levee construction, an overflow weir in Abiaca Creek near Highway 49, and three floodwater retarding structures on tributaries within the upper reaches of the ACW. Complete project plans for the ACW also include 19 additional floodwater retarding structures; two low-drop grade control structures; 125 riser pipe grade control structures; 155 debris basins; 9,600 linear feet of bank stabilization; and $450,500 in land treatment measures such as reforestation, revegetation, and terracing. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Currently, the ACW has problems with channel instability, and with related channel degradation and bank, gully, and overland flow erosion. The proposed control measures would address the erosion of channel beds and banks, high sediment loads that are deposited in the downstream reach of Abiaca Creek, reduced channel conveyance capacity, increased flooding on agricultural lands, and the deposition of large quantities of sediment into Mathews Brake National Wildlife Refuge. The proposed measures would provide for ten-year-frequency flood protection to adjacent properties while simultaneously providing for 50 years of sediment deposition in the levee floodway. Additional benefits would include the revegetation of construction areas and levees with plant species of greater economic and wildlife value than existing vegetation, and the establishment of approximately 82 acres of aquatic habitat in the hills as an important benefit to fishery resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would impact 349 acres of bottomland hardwoods habitat, 990 acres of agricultural land, and 55 acres of riparian/upland hardwood habitat.

Preparation date: November 6, 1992 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - PROPOSED EWA MARINA, EWA BEACH, OAHU, HAWAII. AN - 36396539; 3906 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a 120-acre, 1,400-berth marina, and concurrent residential development of the marina area, at Ewa Beach on the Island of Oahu, Hawaii, is proposed by HASEKO (Ewa), Inc. The alternatives to this plan include the construction of a 70-acre, 800-berth marina, and residential development of the area without the marina. Also included as part of the marina project would be the installation or construction of protective jetties, internal wave absorbers, storm drain structures, an entrance channel, navigational aids, and a bridge to an island that would be created on the eastern end of the marina. The applicant proposes to dispose of 300,000 cubic yards of coralline material and sand, dredged during the construction of an entrance channel to the marina, at the EPA's South Oahu Dredged Material Ocean Disposal Site. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Marina construction at this location is consistent with current state and local land use plans and coastal zone management policies. The development would help meet the high demand for berth space, and would generate more ocean-related commercial development, in the area. Shoreline access for the public would be enhanced. The marina would become an estuarine environment, providing habitat diversity for fish and invertebrates. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: All of the alternatives would require land clearing, which would remove existing sugarcane and Kiawe forest plant communities. Development of the area would remove the Ewa plain as a flood storage basin, which would result in increased runoff to the ocean. A limestone caprock aquifer would be altered, reducing groundwater levels. Construction activities would generate substantial fugitive dust emissions, and would increase water turbidity and destroy marine organisms in a 40-acre area. The entrance channel alignment would alter one of seven surf sites in the area, and would destroy an anchialine pool harboring hypogeal shrimp.

Preparation date: November 2, 1992 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - OLCOTT HARBOR PROJECT, OLCOTT, NEW YORK--GENERAL REEVALUATION REPORT AND SUPPLEMENTAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF NOVEMBER 1978). AN - 15233895; 3910 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of Olcott Harbor near the town of Newfane, New York, is proposed. The harbor is located on the south shore of Lake Ontario at the mouth of Eighteenmile Creek approximately 35 miles northeast of Buffalo. The existing project was completed in 1918 and consists of two parallel piers and an entrance channel from deep water in the lake to the shoreward end of the piers. This pier-protected entrance channel is safe for use only in calm weather or light wind conditions. Many boats moor in the open basin upstream from the piers, and are adversely affected by surge action in the lake entrance channel and choppiness created by waves overtopping the existing piers. A final EIS of November 1978 proposed the implementation of a harbor improvement plan that would include rubble-mound breakwaters with some pedestrian and fisherman access, an east outer-harbor embayment, channel improvements, and associated dock and upland facilities development. This plan, Plan 10-A, whose total cost would be $17.5 million, has not yet been implemented. This draft supplement to the final EIS includes additional analysis of the proposal based on legislative and environmental changes. It is the finding of the Army Corps of Engineers that it would be inappropriate for the project to receive federal funding since up to 96 percent of the benefits associated with the project are recreational and unrelated to commercial navigation or flood damage reduction. POSITIVE IMPACTS: If implemented, the plan would protect up to 800 fishing and recreational boats from violent wave action and provide improved access to pedestrian fishermen; furthermore, the breakwaters would protect approximately 31 acres of littoral zone benthic habitat. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The deposition of stone at the breakwater sites would crush, smother, or displace bottom-dwelling invertebrates, aquatic plants, and fish habitat.

Confined-area tests were performed by analyzing the response of blueback herring in floating net-pens to sounds differing in frequency, sound pressure levels (SPLs, given in decibels [dB] in reference to l.0 kPa), and pulse width. Highfrequency sounds between 110 and 140 kHz, at SPLs above 180 dB (at 1.0 m from the transducer) and at various pulse widths, elicited statistically significant (P < 0.05) avoidance responses by blueback herring. A reduced response was observed at sound frequencies of 100 and 150 kHz. Low-frequency sounds between 0.1 and 1 kHz at SPLs of 160-175 dB (at 1.0 m from the transducer) elicited only short-term startle responses. Field tests were performed at Richard B. Russell Dam (on the Savannah River at the Georgia-South Carolina border) to evaluate candidate transducers and amplifiers. In field evaluations a single high-frequency transducer emitting 124.6- and 130.9-kHz sounds at an SPL of 187 or 200 dB (at 1.0 m) partially repelled blueback herring that were approximately 60 m away from the transducer for periods of up to I h. These results suggest that high-frequency sound may provide an effective and inexpensive method, relative to structural measures, for reducing entrainment of blueback herring at hydropower stations.

AN - 36397303; 3817 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of State Trunk Highway (STH) 29 in Marathon and Shawano counties, Wisconsin, is proposed. The 37-mile study corridor extends from the east end of the recently completed freeway section near Ringle in eastern Marathon County to a point approximately 0.5 miles west of Thornton in central Shawano County. STH 29 is the principal route across north-central Wisconsin, linking Interstate 94 and Minneapolis/St. Paul to the west with Green Bay/Fox River Valley to the east. High truck volumes, recreational peaks, poor roadway geometrics, and traffic operational characteristics have resulted in a low level of service for portions of STH 29 between Ringle and Shawano. As traffic volumes increase to those forecasted for the design year (2015), the highway's deficiencies will obstruct smooth and safe traffic flow more critically, and the level of service for the entire project corridor will become unsatisfactory. The proposed action would upgrade the existing two-lane highway section within the study corridor between Ringle and Thornton to a four-lane, divided highway with a 55-mile-per-hour design speed. For the most part, the project would involve adding two 12-foot-wide driving lanes and a 60-foot-wide median adjacent to the existing roadway, which would serve as two lanes of the completed four-lane facility. In general, except for the sections of STH 29 built in new locations, access to the highway from local roads and driveways would remain as direct at-grade connections. Where possible, the number of individual access points would be reduced through consolidation or new connections to an adjacent local road. The bypass alternatives would include local-road grade separations and interchanges with US 45. Some bridge work would be necessary to provide for the Wittenberg Bypass. Individual driveway connections to the bypass routes would not be allowed. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The traffic conditions on STH 29 would improve substantially due to increased capacity and improved highway design. Projected traffic volumes through the year 2015 would be accommodated. Conflicts between cars and trucks and slow-moving farm equipment would be alleviated. Linkage of nearly one-third of the state's population would be improved. Improved accessibility would increase employment by 3 to 18 percent. A 20 percent increase in tourists using STH 29 between the Wausau and Green Bay areas would occur due to the improved highway. The bypass section would separate through and local traffic in the Wittenberg area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The right-of-way requirements would displace farmlands, wetlands, upland hardwood habitat, residences, businesses, and a day school. Archaeological and historical resource sites could also be displaced. The project would encounter hazardous materials sites. Noise levels at some receptor sites would exceed standards. Recreational trails and the Shawano County Forest Demonstration Area, a resource designed to illustrate different methods of timber harvesting, could be affected by construction activities.

Preparation date: October 29, 1992 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - PROPOSED SWINOMISH MARINA, LA CONNER, SKAGIT COUNTY, WASHINGTON. AN - 36414051; 3833 AB - PURPOSE: The development of a 786-slip saltwater marina and related upland support facilities by the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community on a 136-acre site located on the west shore of the Swinomish Channel, immediately north of State Route 20 near La Conner, Skagit County, Washington, is proposed. The project's waterborne development includes 3,350 lineal feet of combined floating rubble-mound breakwater and timber seawall, 16,000 lineal feet of slip space built into 15 walkways totaling 8,800 lineal feet, a fuel dock, a four-lane boat launch, and a boat repair basin. The 41-acre marina basin would have approximately 331 covered moorage slips and 455 uncovered slips. Also proposed for construction are a marina services building, selected retail shops, a marine supply store, a secondary sewage treatment plant, highway on/off-ramp improvements, highway-related retail facilities, a boat trailer parking area, a fuel dock, a 40-unit motel, marine-related office space, dry storage, a service station, and a light-industrial operating area. Construction of the boat basin would require excavation of approximately 1.017 million cubic yards (cy) of sand and silt over an area of 43 acres. Approximately 600,000 cy of dredged material would be used on-site for constructing the common excavation dike. Of the remaining dredged material, 292,600 cy would be used at a proposed mitigation site and the rest would be disposed of at other upland locations on the reservation. The proposed mitigation site would be a 55-acre parcel of agricultural land adjacent to and west of the Swinomish Channel, about one mile south of the proposed marina site. Approximately 23 acres of the mitigation site would be restored to intertidal pickleweed habitat, and approximately 11, 0.7, and 4 acres of mud flat, dune, and subtidal habitat, respectively, would also be created at the site. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed marina would serve two primary purposes: to meet the moorage needs of the recreational boating public, and to provide economic development opportunities for the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community. The proposed project would generate a minimum of 100 construction jobs, plus up to 230 permanent jobs for members of the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community. These jobs would provide an economic stimulus to the community. The site would be altered from a commercial bingo parlor and vacant uplands to a marina with upland support facilities. A maximum of 29,850 annual boat trips, with a maximum of 8,000 peak-month trips, 640 peak-day trips, and 96 peak-hour trips, are estimated for the marina. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would result in an increased risk of accidental spills of oil or sewage into open water. The project would eliminate 9.4 acres of dune vegetation and 26 acres of upland meadows on the site. The dredge-and-fill operations would alter on-site elevations, and would result in the combined net loss of 9 acres of wetland (salt marsh) and 27 acres of intertidal mud flat at the project site. Some 55 acres of agricultural land would be permanently altered. There would be a reduction in the salmon-rearing capacity of the project site, and bird populations could be reduced by an estimated one-third. The reduction of eelgrass, mud flat, and salt marsh habitat would be detrimental to benthic invertebrate populations. Increases in noise and human activity in the site vicinity could affect harbor seals, river otters, birds, and other wildlife. Decreased prey and habitat availability and increased human action would permanently displace wintering bald eagles and peregrine falcons at the site. Additional impervious surfaces at the site would increase storm water runoff.

Preparation date: October 26, 1992 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WISCONSIN STATE TRUNK HIGHWAY 29, IH 94 TO STH 29/CTH ""J'' INTERCHANGE, DUNN AND CHIPPEWA COUNTIES, WISCONSIN. AN - 36410713; 3816 AB - PURPOSE: The upgrading of State Trunk Highway (STH) 29 to a four-lane, divided facility between Interstate 94 (I-94) near Elk Mound, Wisconsin, and County Trunk Highway (CTH) J east of Chippewa Falls is proposed. The project would begin at I-94 in eastern Dunn County, cross the Chippewa River, and end at the existing STH 29 and CTH J intersection in south-central Chippewa County, a distance of about 21 miles. STH 29 functions as the primary, and most heavily traveled, route across north-central Wisconsin, linking Green Bay to the east with I-94 and the Twin Cities to the west. Twelve build alternatives and a No-Build Alternative are considered in this draft EIS. Under all build alternatives, it is proposed that east of the Chippewa River, access be limited to grade- separated interchanges. Overpasses and underpasses would be provided where necessary to maintain local circulation. West of the river, interchanges would be built where traffic warrants them; other access would be at-grade. Direct driveway and farm accesses would be eliminated or combined where possible. In order to improve operations at the I-94/STH 29 interchange, the build alternatives would include realignment of both STH 40 and US 12 approximately one mile east of the interchange; there are two additional build alternatives for this realignment. Key issues considered in the draft EIS include crossing the Chippewa River dells area; the type of facility to be built; wetlands; bald eagle nesting sites; the use of public recreation land; noise; aesthetics; impacts to surface water and groundwater resources; and socioeconomic impacts. Costs of the project would total $58.9 million to $70.8 million for STH 29 improvement, and $1.5 million to $2.4 million for the STH 40 /US 12 realignment, depending on the alternative selected. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The improvements to the corridor, which carries a high volume of truck traffic, would save travel time and reduce accidents. A more efficient highway network would provide statewide economic benefits, as transportation costs and access to high-quality four-lane highways are factors affecting business location decisions. Tourism could increase as tourists gained better access to vacation and recreation areas. The ultimate impact of these economic benefits would be to generate more jobs and income for Wisconsin residents. A bypass of Chippewa Falls would reduce congestion for local traffic as well as eliminate delays for through traffic. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The build alternatives would impact 31.9 to 97.4 wetland acres, 100.1 to 269.8 upland woodlot acres, 466 to 848 agricultural acres, 2 to 7 cultural resource sites, 2 to 7 hazardous waste sites, and 1 to 4 farmsteads. Relocations would be required for 21 to 48 residential properties and 3 to 15 commercial properties. Some alternatives would cross Hallie Town Park with main-line traffic, segmenting the contiguous area available for park use. In addition, some alternatives would impact the Chippewa River dells, the largest remaining dells in western Wisconsin and a valuable visual resource.

Preparation date: October 26, 1992 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - TH 610 FROM I-94 IN MAPLE GROVE TO TH 252 IN BROOKLYN PARK, HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNESOTA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF AUGUST 1982). AN - 36396674; 3805 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a new ten-mile trunk highway connecting Interstate 94 (I-94) in Maple Grove, Minnesota, and TH 252 in Brooklyn Park is proposed. The project area is located in the northwestern suburbs of the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area. The proposed new highway, to be known as TH 610, would be a four-lane, east-west freeway with interchanges located approximately one mile apart and grade separations. In addition to the regional access interchanges at I-94, TH 169, and TH 252, three local access interchanges would be provided in Maple Grove and three in Brooklyn Park. The construction of this segment of TH 610 was proposed in a draft EIS of April 1981 as part of a larger highway construction program; however, the final EIS of August 1982 covered only those portions of the program for which funding was available. Those segments included TH 610 from TH 252 to TH 10 in Coon Rapids, and TH 252 from I-94 in Brooklyn Center to TH 610 in Brooklyn Park; both segments were constructed and opened to traffic in the fall of 1987. Since that time, additional funds have become available to construct the remaining segment of TH 610 from I-94 to TH 252. Only two alternatives are under consideration: the proposed action and the No Action Alternative. The proposed project would include some transportation system management components, such as high- occupancy-vehicle lanes and two or three park-and-ride lots. The estimated construction cost of the project is $115 million in 1992 dollars. The estimated right-of-way acquisition cost is $4 million in 1992 dollars. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would be a substantial addition to the transportation network in the metropolitan area. It would stimulate business and employment growth in the corridor and relieve existing and projected traffic congestion. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed construction would displace 31 residences and three businesses, encroach upon 40 acres of wetlands and 65 acre-feet of floodplain, and result in the loss of 59 acres of prime farmland. Portions of the proposed alignment would traverse developed areas; up to 511 parcels would be out of compliance with federal nighttime noise standards, and up to 31 parcels would be out of compliance with daylight standards. These effects would be lessened considerably if 20-foot-high noise walls were constructed near the affected areas. A historic farmhouse eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places would be removed to allow for construction of the proposed Zachary Lane interchange with TH 610. Furthermore, approximately four undeveloped acres of the Elm Creek Park Reserve would be displaced. LEGAL MANDATES: Department of Transportation Act of 1966, as amended (49 U.S.C. 1651 et seq.), and Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (42 U.S.C. 4601).
