AN - 36399815; 4874 AB - PURPOSE: The completion of a hurricane evacuation route from eastern Pleasure Island in Baldwin County to Interstate 10 (I-10) on the mainland in Alabama is proposed. The project area is located along the Gulf Coast in an area susceptible to tropical cyclones or hurricanes. Alabama Highway 59 (AL 59), a two- to four-lane highway, currently serves as the main evacuation route for Pleasure Island. The highway, which is severely congested during the peak summer tourist season, is the only north-south highway in the project area. All other north-south traffic is carried by the two-lane AL 161 and county roads, chiefly CR 87 and CR 95. By way of contrast, four highways serve east-west traffic: AL 182, US 98, US 90, and I-10. In 1985, a state-sponsored study of the area concluded that an emergency evacuation of Pleasure Island would exceed the 12-hour hurricane warning period and that the population would be in peril if a severe hurricane approached the area. The draft EIS for Pleasure Island considers the 7.3-mile portion of the evacuation route from the island to the mainland. Under the proposed action, AL 161 would be widened to five lanes from AL 182 to AL 180, where the proposed five-lane section on AL 161 would be extended on new location. The roadway would join existing CR 95 northwest of Wolf Air Field. The Draft EIS for Lower Baldwin County considers the efficient and expeditious distribution of traffic once it is on the mainland; this section of roadway would extend for approximately 16 miles. Two construction alternatives are under consideration: Alternatives 1 and 3A. Under each, the facility would extend the evacuation route from CR 95, near CR 20, to I-10. It would be a four-lane, divided highway with future interchanges at US 98 and US 90. Under the two alternatives, the facility would share a common alignment along CR 95 from near CR 20 to north of US 98. At that point, it would split: the facility under Alternative 1 would continue to follow the CR 95 alignment; while under Alternative 3A, it would curve to the northeast. The points of intersection with I-10 are 2.3 miles apart. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would provide enhanced public safety during hurricane season and substantially reduce the time needed to evacuate the coastal area. It would also improve everyday access to the area and stimulate the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: On Pleasure Island, under the preferred alternative, the project would displace three residences, five businesses, and one fire station. Under Alternative 2A, approximately 35 residences, three businesses, and one fire station would be displaced. Some encroachment on lands of the Gulf State Park would result from the widening of AL 161. Other adverse impacts would include the loss of wetlands, and the conversion of farmlands and woodlands to highway use.

AN - 36396559; 4908 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a storm damage reduction project for the barrier island of Long Beach, Nassau County, New York, is proposed. The barrier island is a nine-mile-long island located on the Atlantic Coast of Long Island, between Jones Inlet to the east and East Rockaway to the west. The shoreline includes the communities of Point Lookout, Nassau Beach, Lido Beach, and the city of Long Beach, within the town of Hempstead, in Nassau County. The area has been subject to major storms, causing damage to structures along the barrier island. Continued erosion has reduced the height and width of the beach front, further increasing the potential for storm damage. Nine alternatives are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative 5), the project would involve widening the existing beach with the placement of hydraulic fill, the rehabilitation of 16 of the existing groins at Long Beach, and the construction of six groins west of Point Lookout at Lido Beach. This approach would maintain a 110-foot berm width along the shoreline from west of Point Lookout to approximately Yates Avenue. The berm would have a height of ten feet, supplemented by a dune system with a height of 15 feet. An offshore borrow area located approximately 1.5 miles south of the project area would be used as a sand source. Initial construction and four renourishments occurring over a 50-year period would require 28.24 million cubic yards of sand. The construction of the groins at Lido Beach would require 100,000 tons of armor stone and 30,000 tons of bedding stone. In addition, 68,000 tons of stone would be needed to rehabilitate the 16 groins at Long Beach. The No Action Alternative was eliminated from consideration because it would not alleviate the existing serious beach erosion problem and storm damage threat. The estimated first cost of the project is $67.7 million, and the benefit to cost ratio is 2.0. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would counteract the effects of storm-induced and long-term erosion of beachfront in a heavily residential area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Both the fill and borrow sites would experience short-term losses of benthic habitat and short-term adverse water quality effects. Bird and fish use of the shoreline area for feeding would be disrupted. Some significant damage to commercially viable surf clam beds could occur.

AN - 36404834; 4888 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of the approximately 15-mile-long segment I-2 of the State Highway 99 (SH 99), the Grand Parkway, in Harris and Chambers counties, Texas, is proposed. The project would complete the area's regional mobility plan. The parkway was conceived in 1960; SH 99, along with SH 146, would form a circumferential loop around Houston. Upon completion, SH 99 would also provide access and increased mobility to areas without current access to the freeway network; expedite implementation of thoroughfare plans in various areas in support of business and residential growth; provide freeway capacity in those areas requiring additional emergency evacuation routes during hurricanes; and provide a central city bypass, relieving existing congestion. Segment I-2 would form a corridor intersecting SH 225 approximately 19 miles southeast of Houston and Interstate 10 (East) approximately 29 miles east of Houston. Prevailing land uses in the study corridor are farming, ranching, and industrial activities. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 6), segment I-2 would ultimately be a six-lane, limited-access freeway in a 300- to 400-foot right-of-way. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Segment I-2 would respond to current and projected area transportation needs, using existing roadways to the maximum practical extent. It would also reroute long range trips away from SH 146 through Baytown; this would shorten travel time, provide an alternate route for hazardous cargo, and reduce peak hour congestion. Bridges and other structures for stream and other channel crossings would not alter local drainage patterns. Under the preferred alternative, land from a publicly-owned park, recreation area of wildlife or waterfowl refuge would not be used. There are no known areas of unique scenic quality in the project vicinity; and no known archaeological or historic structures would be disturbed. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would involve the acquisition of 586 acres. Some four acres of wetlands and 126 acres of prime or unique farmland would be adversely affected. Two Resource Conservation and Recovery Act sites, four underground storage tanks, and four spill incident sites would be located in or near the right of way. Under some of the action alternatives, construction would require the relocation of commercial and residential landowners. Vegetative communities, including wooded areas and farmland, would be removed; some floral and faunal populations would be destroyed. Noise exposure within the immediate project area would increase. Segment I-2 could contribute to higher regional ozone concentrations.

AN - 15222350; 4857 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of the management plan for the Telluride Ski Area in the Uncompahgre National Forest in San Miguel County, Colorado, is proposed. The ski area is located directly south of the town of Telluride, approximately 330 miles southwest of Denver. Since 1971, it has been operated through a special-use permit issued to the Telluride Company; the ski area encompasses approximately 3,761 acres of national forest land and 326 acres of private land. Under the proposal submitted by the applicant, additional lifts and associated trails would be constructed and additional restaurants would be constructed in order to accommodate an expected increase in demand. Under the agency's preferred alternative (Alternative D), the management plan would generally resemble the applicant's proposal but minor modifications were made in order to minimize social, physical, and environmental effects. Under this plan, six lift pods with associated runs, trails, and gladed areas would be constructed; lift number 6 and its trail and run system would be realigned along the upper terminal; four restaurants would be developed and an existing restaurant would be expanded within the special use permit area; off-season recreational activities would be expanded in order to provide additional hiking, biking, and horseback riding and continued hang gliding access; and a lodge and series of small cabins would be developed in the Prospect Basin. This draft supplement to the draft EIS of March 1994 has been issued in response to public concerns about the project's impact on air quality in the region, which is classified as a non-attainment area. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, implementation would provide new and improved ski facilities, increase the size and diversity of the existing resort, expand summer recreational opportunities, and enhance amenities of the overall area. The project would generate considerable revenue and stimulate the local economy; the increase in off-season opportunities would help to stabilize the year-round population and incomes. The project would be in compliance with the State Implementation Plan and the National Ambient Air Quality Standards. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The development of ski traverses and runs, and other construction activities, would adversely affect 665 acres of common vegetation; reduce cover for elk, mule deer, black bear, and mountain lion; and displace 7.6 acres of wetlands. Cleared or graded areas would be susceptible to soil movement, erosion, and geologic instability. The potential for avalanches would increase at some sites.

AN - 36395457; 4904 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of navigability of Humboldt Bay Harbor, in Humboldt County, California, is proposed. Humboldt Bay is an estuary approximately 225 miles north of San Francisco; it is the only harbor between San Francisco and Coos Bay, Oregon, with deep-draft channels. The bay is an important spawning and nursery ground for Pacific herring, and it provides habitat for some 95 fish species, over 200 bird species, and several marine mammal species. Seven of California's twelve shellfish reserves occupy the Bay. Five bird species and three plant species identified as endangered occur in areas affected by the project. Commercial and recreational fishing and timber products are the leading industries, and extensive educational and scientific research is conducted on ecological issues. Issues of concern include the effects on air quality, noise levels, hydrology and water resources, geology and sediment quality, biological resources, cultural resources, transportation, and socioeconomic factors. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the improvements would include deepening the Bar and Entrance channels to a depth of 48 feet below mean lower low water (MLLW); deepening the North Bay, Samoa Channel, and Samoa Turning Basin to a depth of 38 feet below MLLW; widening the Entrance Channel on the north side of the channel from the jetty heads through the middle ground to the turn in the North Bay Channel (with maximum widths ranging from 200 to 275 feet); moving the Entrance Channel edge north and away from the South Jetty by 100 feet; and widening and realigning the Samoa Turning Basin entrance. The project would consist of dredging the navigation channels, and the disposal of approximately 4.1 million cubic yards of dredged sediments in the Pacific Ocean at the proposed Section 102 Humboldt Open Ocean Disposal Site, and approximately 26,000 cubic yards of dredged sediments unsuitable for unconfined aquatic disposal at the Louisiana Pacific land site, located on the North Spit of Humboldt Bay. The project would be expected to be completed in 10 to 11 months, with upland disposal of dredged material completed in approximately 3 to 4 days. The first cost for construction would be $11.38 million and the annualized cost $707,300. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would improve efficiencies in navigation and provide safer channels for existing deep-draft vessels calling at the harbor. The annual benefits derived from the project would be $2.72 million. The net annual benefits would be $1.57 million. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Diesel-powered equipment used in dredging activities would create significant emissions of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter. Odors could be emitted from dredged spoils exposed to the atmosphere due to decomposition of organic matter. Short-term nutrient enrichment caused by potential elevated concentrations of phosphorus and nitrogen in the dredged material could increase water turbidity by enhancing primary production.

Needs were addressed within the scope of realistic product expectation and constraints. It became apparent that a combined search strategy employing the capabilities of scientists with law enforcement experience can accelerate development of low-profile technology focused on subsurface detection of clandestine tunnels. Scientific presentations outlined a proposed research plan to a panel of representatives from various law enforcement agencies who critiqued and offered constructive criticism. Presentations included: geologic principles, clandestine tunnel operations, modern tunneling technology (including microtunneling), a history of tunnel detection, southwest border geophysical test results from Otay Mesa, geologic criteria for selecting geophysical techniques for a site-specific search, computer applications using the Geographic Information System, and the development of a search strategy. Panel discussions covered conditions and tactical constraints faced by scientists operating along the southwest U.S/Mexico border. The workshop opened two-way communication for the exchange of ideas between scientists and law enforcement agents. Its primary accomplishment was a workable search strategy which can be supported jointly by law enforcement agents and the scientific community.

AN - 36407701; 4906 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of the harbor operation and maintenance plan for the Savannah Harbor, which comprises the lower 21.3 miles of the Savannah River in Chatham County, Georgia, and Jasper County, South Carolina, is proposed. At present, a 42-feet-deep navigation channel is maintained from the mouth of the Savannah River to Kings Island Turning Basin. However, recent actions taken in the harbor, including the widening of the ship channel near City Front and the discontinued operation of the Tidegate, have modified the hydrodynamics of the harbor and could affect its ability to serve the needs of deep-draft commercial navigation. Eight alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 8), the project would involve the maintenance of the existing channel as well as the dredging of berthing areas during channel maintenance and advance maintenance deepening of turning basins. Confined disposal facilities located in the middle of the harbor would be used on a rotating basis for the disposal of dredged materials. In addition, dikes would be constructed around disposal area 14A, an access road would be constructed to disposal area 2A in order to allow deposited sediments to be transported by truck, dredged sediments would be placed on eroded portions of Tybee and Daufuskie islands, submerged berms would be constructed in the nearshore areas along the south side of the Bar Channel, and a mitigation plan would implemented in order to restore wetlands lost at Disposal Area 14A. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The improvements in deep-draft navigation would provide economic benefits to the region without increasing the amount of dredged material requiring disposal. Under the preferred alternative, the project would result in the most efficient use of the harbor while avoiding any adverse impacts on threatened or endangered species, salinity, or water quality. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The excavation of berthing and turning areas would destroy benthic organisms. Minor temporary losses of wetlands would occur as weirs are replaced and new discharge pipes are installed near disposal areas.

AN - 36383864; 4882 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of Route 13 from the interchange with the Route 10 bypass just south of Richmond to Route 24 just south of Lexington, a distance of ten miles, in Lafayette and Ray counties, Missouri, is proposed. The roadway would consist of a four-lane facility with two traffic lanes in each direction and full-paved shoulders, separated by a depressed grass median; the upgrade would require a relocation of Route 13 and a bridge across the Missouri River. Existing Route 13, which was constructed in the 1920's, suffers from substandard geometrics, inadequate roadway cross-section, impassability during flood conditions, and a narrow bridge structure in need of rehabilitation. Portions of the roadway lie within the 100-year floodplain; during the summer of 1993, access to the Lexington bridge was impassible due to flood conditions. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative MOPE), the facility would utilize a two-mile segment of existing Route 13 out of Richmond, then bypass Henrietta and Lexington to the north. Portions of the roadway would be elevated to the 500-year floodplain elevation. The alignment would cross the Missouri River approximately one mile north of the existing bridge. Under the No Action Alternative, the project would involve only the rehabilitation of the existing bridge. The estimated costs under the preferred alternative are $101.6 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would reduce accident rates on existing Route 13 and adjoining routes, improve response time for emergency vehicles, improve access to the lake areas in central and southern Missouri, and improve overall transportation efficiency. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the project would displace approximately 270 acres of prime farmland, result in nine residential relocations, and adversely affect 12.8 acres of wetlands, 17.5 acres of woodlands, and two potentially significant archaeological sites. In addition, 231 acres of floodplain would be filled, and two permanent streams and six intermittent streams would be crossed.

AN - 36401617; 4890 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a four-lane, divided highway with partial control of access in northeastern West Virginia and northwestern Virginia is proposed. The highway would connect Elkins, West Virginia, to Strasburg, Virginia, a distance of 114 miles. It would traverse mountainous terrain in portions of the West Virginia counties of Grant, Hardy, Randolph, and Tucker, as well as the Virginia counties of Frederick and Shenandoah. The highway would complete Corridor H of the Appalachian Development Highway System, improving east-west access as well as connecting several of the existing north-south highway systems. The purpose of this second draft supplement to the draft EIS of March 1981 is to analyze the impacts of preferred alignment. A previous draft supplement, issued in October 1992, had examined alternative corridors for the proposed highway. This second draft supplement compares the preferred alignment (Line A) with an upgrade local roads alternative and a No-Build Alternative. Line A would bypass Elkins to the north, would bypass Kerens to the east, and would pass through the Monongahela and George Washington National Forests. Roughly 100 miles of its length would be located in West Virginia; the remaining 14 miles would be in Virginia. The estimated construction costs range from $1.03 million to $1.08 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The east-west highway would enhance the economic development of central West Virginia by improving its access to eastern and midwestern markets; the highway would support approximately 17,800 permanent jobs. The project would reduce east-west travel time by up to 40 percent for automobiles and 48 percent for trucks; furthermore, the accident rate would be reduced by 36 percent, and fatalities by 50 percent. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would displace 68 residences and commercial establishments, up to 543 acres of farmland, and 37.7 acres of wetlands. Under the preferred alignment, the facility would also adversely affect four sensitive visual resources and as many as 11 sites eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, would encroach on 54 acres of flood zone, and would require the relocation of roughly two miles of streams.

AN - 36405426; 4770 AB - PURPOSE: The restoration of 1,822 acres of tidal wetlands on a diked bayland site near Collinsville in Solano County, California, is proposed. The site is currently used as grazing land and contains approximately 1,620 acres of federally regulated wetlands. Facilities would be constructed to receive up to 20 million cubic yards of dredged materials from ports and navigation channels in the San Francisco Bay estuary and to distribute the dredged materials over this site. The soils on the site had subsided after the construction of the original levees. Deposition of dredged materials would raise the subsided land surface back to an elevation level at which marsh could be established. After the subsided baylands have been filled, the levees would be breached to enable tides to ebb and flow over the constructed foundation of tidal channels and low marsh plains. The project would be undertaken in four phases in order to minimize temporary losses of wetlands during construction and to facilitate engineered placement of dredged materials. Dredged materials would be off-loaded from barges and placed in cells until elevations suitable for self-sustaining marsh were reached. The project would involve construction of a barge offloading and sediment distribution facility, a sediment rehandling facility, internal levees to contain dredged sediment slurry pumped to the site, a main and branch tidal system, a sub-drainage system, and ancillary facilities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would restore a large tidal marsh ecosystem, supporting abundant wildlife, fish, estuarine production, and diversity of marsh species and habitats. It would also provide significant capacity for disposal of sediments dredged from Bay area ports and navigation channels. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would remove 1,650 acres of grazing land from agricultural land use and remove 541 acres of industrial zoned land, a revenue loss for the county. It would have the potential of creating mud waves, which would deform the marsh and increase the chance of releasing contaminants. Contaminants would accumulate in the holding pond and, if discharged to the Montezuma Slough or Sacramento River, violate water quality standards. The planned inundation of the area would displace the federally-protected salt marsh harvest mouse.

Preparation date: October 31, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SOUTHEASTERN EXPRESSWAY, FROM I-464/I-64 TO ROUTE 44, CITIES OF CHESAPEAKE AND VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF AUGUST 1989). AN - 36408895; 4812 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of the Southeastern Expressway to provide for east-west travel through the cities of Chesapeake and Virginia Beach, Virginia, is proposed. The expressway would be located in the extreme southeastern section of Virginia known geographically as the Hampton Roads region. Project study limits extend from Interstate 64 (I-64) between Bainbridge Road and Indian River Road in Chesapeake to the Norfolk-Virginia Beach Expressway (Route 44) between Laskin Road and Birdneck Road, a length of approximately 21 miles and a width averaging approximately 3.5 miles. The expressway would be a multilane grade-separated access-controlled divided highway. Interchanges would be constructed at major existing and proposed crossroads. The design would incorporate six lanes, two high-occupancy vehicle lanes, and standard shoulders; the expressway would have a design speed of 70 miles per hour. Initial corridors under consideration have been reduced to eight alternative groups providing for a total of 39 possible alignments. This draft supplement to the draft EIS of August 1989 documents changes to the project since the issuance of the draft EIS and reduces the number of build alternatives under consideration to five. Alignments would extend from 19.9 to 21.9 miles. The estimated project costs range from $353.8 million to $507.0 million, depending on the alignment selected and specific design considerations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Traffic congestion on existing routes would be relieved through redistribution of traffic patterns. Safety, efficiency, and convenience within the corridor would be improved. The number of accidents on area arterial roads would decline significantly. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way acquisitions totaling 634 to 695 acres would result in the displacement of 177 to 717 families; displacements could be exacerbated due to the shortage of low- to moderate-income housing in the area. As a result, minority group residents could be inconvenienced. Six to 13 businesses would be displaced, along with 3 to 4 nonprofit organizations, and 1 church. Parkland, farmland, wetlands, forestland, and archaeologically, historically, and architecturally significant sites could also be adversely affected, as well as associated wildlife habitat, and two locally important scenic waterways. Two to 15 neighborhoods would be disrupted, including minority neighborhoods. Noise levels would exceed federal standards in the vicinity of some sensitive receptors. The endangered Dismal Swamp southeastern shrew would be impacted.

AN - 36395356; 4783 AB - PURPOSE: The restoration of the native anadromous fisheries and ecosystem of the Elwha River in Clallam County, Washington, is proposed. Much of the 45-mile-long river flows through the Olympic National Park. In the early 1900s, the free-flowing Elwha River was blocked by two hydroelectric dams. In 1912 the Elwha Dam was built 4.9 miles from the mouth of the river, creating Lake Aldwell. In 1926, the Glines Canyon dam was built 8.5 miles further upstream, creating Lake Mills. The presence and operation of the dams blocked the migration path for several species of salmon and trout, which, after maturing in the ocean, return to Elwha to spawn, and the dams prevent the downstream flow of nutrients, sediment, and woody debris needed by the fish to spawn and rear juveniles. The fish were also important to the diet, culture, and economy of a local Indian tribe, the Lower Elwha S'Klallam Tribe. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the restoration project would include the acquisition and decommissioning of both dams, the draining of the reservoirs, and the removal of all or part of the dams, powerhouses, and auxiliary structures. These actions would require the diversion of the river around the dams and the management of 14 million to 15 million cubic yards of sediments that have accumulated behind the dams over the past 81 years. The river could be diverted by way of a tunnel, surface diversion channel, low level diversion through the dam structure, or by notching dam down from the top. Sediment could be transported naturally by the river, stabilized on site, or dredged and removed offsite. Pieces of the dam or historically important structures could be left in place. Restoration efforts would begin by planting some species in the middle and upper river while the dams are still in place. To accommodate juvenile downstream migration of these species, turbine runners might need to be removed at both dams. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would fully restore the Elwha River ecosystem, return the cultural and economic focus of the Lower Elwha S'Klallam Tribe, and promote the federal trust responsibility to affected Indian tribes. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Deactivation of the dams would result in the loss of 18.7 megawatts of hydroelectric power now produced at these two sites. If sediment were allowed to erode naturally, the finer-grained particles, like silt and clay, could adversely affect fish or other aquatic organisms.

AN - 36408838; 4825 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a 1,172-acre water supply reservoir to be located in Johnson and Williamson counties, near the community of Creal Springs, Illinois, is proposed. The reservoir would provide water to the city of Marion and several neighboring developments. Marion is a community in south central Illinois, located 100 air miles southeast of St. Louis, Missouri. The Lake of Egypt Water District, a rural area located south of Marion, has in principle an agreement with Marion to purchase up to three million gallons of water if a new water supply source is developed. The current water source, Marion City Lake located south of the city limits on Limb Creek, lacks the capacity to meet anticipated demands; its supply is routinely supplemented by pipeline from Herrin Lake, which also has a limited capacity. In addition, significant treatment is required to ensure that the water from the Marion City Lake meets federal standards. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The reservoir would be created on Sugar Creek; the dam would be located one mile south of the community of Creal Springs and 10 miles southeast of Marion. The lake would have a dependable yield of 8.0 million gallons per day; it would require a pipeline 12.2 miles long to connect to the water treatment in Marion. For much of its length, this pipeline would follow an abandoned railroad right-of-way; 14 stream crossings would be necessary. An additional eight miles of pipeline would be needed to transport water to the Lake of Egypt Water District treatment facility. Other alternatives under consideration include a No Action Alternative, the purchasing of treated water from nearby communities, and building new pipelines to nearby lakes. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred plan, the reservoir would provide a long-term dependable supply of water to the city of Marion and the neighboring communities. The reservoir would provide opportunities for fishing and boating. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Pipeline construction would require the clearing of 9 acres of woodland and 14 acres of cropland, and the filling of one acre of wetlands. The reservoir would inundate 533 acres of agricultural lands, 594 vegetated acres, and 28 individual wetland sites comprising over 40 acres. Suitable habitat for several threatened and endangered species, including the Indiana bat and the Indiana crayfish, would be lost as a result of reservoir development. Eleven historic and prehistoric sites have been identified in the project area. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.).

Preparation date: October 13, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - RIO FAJARDO, SECTION 205 FLOOD CONTROL PROJECT, PUERTO RICO. AN - 36396132; 4828 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a long-term flood protection plan for the lower Rio Fajardo at Fajardo on the northeastern coast of Puerto Rico is proposed. The river has a drainage area of about 26 square miles. Its headwaters lie in the Caribbean National Forest on the Sierra de Luquillo Mountains, roughly 3,450 feet above sea level. High rainfall over very steep headwaters in the rain forests of the Luquillo Mountains and a series of natural topographic constrictions in the lower valley, can result in major floods that peak rapidly at dangerously high levels, especially in the Maternillo/Puerto Real neighborhoods near the sea. Roughly 785 families would be affected by a 100-year flood. Total damages would range from $5.1 million for the 10-year flood $11.0 million for the 100-year flood. Under the recommended plan, Standard Project Level of protection would be provided. It would consist of four segments of levees with a total length of about 2,105 meters, a low flow structure, two road ramps, interior drainage facilities, and a wetlands mitigation plan. The levees would have a top width of 3.7 meters. Interior drainage elements would include a culvert under Jerusalem Avenue and five drainage structures. The plan would protect the communities Maternillo, Mansion de Sapo, and Playa de Fajardo at Punto Fajardo, the Santa Isidra development, the Pueblo sector, and San Pedro development located along the southern fringe of the town of Fajardo. The total first cost under the recommended plan is $5.5 million, and the benefit-to-cost ratio is 3.7. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the recommended plan, implementation would lessen flood damages for vulnerable areas near the river and reduce annual flood damages by 97 percent. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The Punta Fajardo levee would cross six acres of a coastal wetland forest dominated by mangroves and salt marsh formations, and reduce freshwater flushing in another 22 acres that would be isolated north of the levee. Roughly three acres of estuarine wetlands and three acres of higher, ecotonal area would be buried under this levee. Punta Fajardo levee would occupy about 0.5 acres of river bottom; Santa Isidra levee would cross cross less than 0.5 acres of riparian wetlands.

Preparation date: October 13, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - BRIDGE OVER LAKE OAHE, EMMONS AND SIOUX COUNTIES, NORTH DAKOTA. AN - 36405103; 4804 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a bridge across Lake Oahe on the Missouri River in order to connect Emmons and Sioux counties, North Dakota, is proposed. The bridge would be located approximately midway between Bismarck, North Dakota, and Mobridge, South Dakota. Construction of the Lake Oahe project in 1958 created a transportation barrier to traffic in south-central North Dakota. No bridge crossings exist along the 100-mile stretch of the river between Bismarck and Mobridge. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. The preferred alternative (Alignment D-3) was developed in order to avoid a significant archaeological site on the east side of the lake, as well as sacred Native American sites on the west side of the lake. The alignment would extend approximately 6.25 miles. The bridge and associated causeways would be constructed entirely within a geologic slump area, reducing the amount of future stability problems that would be expected to occur in association with bridges within the other corridors. Bridge length would be 3,020 feet, while the east and west causeways would extend 650 feet and 2,000 feet, respectively. The estimated cost of the project ranges from $54 million to $63 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: East-west travel within the corridor between Bismarck and Mobridge would be enhanced significantly. The bridge would reduce the effects of Lake Oahe on the infrastructure of south-central North Dakota. Economic development and cultural interaction within the region would be fostered. The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe would benefit from tax income, employment opportunities, cultural advantages, land use access, and opportunities for additional economic development. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction on the preferred alignment would increase the potential for soil erosion and sedimentation significantly. Approximately 288 acres of native prairie would be adversely affected in the short term, and long-term impacts would occur on 19 acres. Regionally significant adverse impacts would include the loss of 7 acres of woodlands, 23 acres of palustrine/riverine/lacustrine wetlands, and 10 acres of prime farmlands. A total of 17 landowners would be adversely affected. Landowner opposition could be a factor adversely affecting development within the selected corridor.

F-14-4(104) MISSOURI RIVER BRIDGE AT NIOBRARA, KNOX COUNTY, NEBRASKA, AND NON HOMME COUNTY, SOUTH DAKOTA. AN - 36401475; 4799 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a bridge over the Missouri River connecting Highway N-12 in Nebraska and Highway SD-37 in South Dakota is proposed. The proposal would provide a two-lane facility between the Niobrara, Nebraska, area and the Running Water and Springfield areas in South Dakota. Currently there is a 70-mile segment of the Missouri River between Gavins Point Dam near Yankton, South Dakota, and Fort Randall Dam near Pickstown, South Dakota, without a river crossing. Ferry service was discontinued in 1984. The bridge would be a two-lane structure with a 36-foot clear roadway and two-lane approach roadways with six-foot shoulders. Four alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 2), the alignment would start 1.5 miles east of Niobrara, extend north from N-12, and cross the Missouri River and tie into SD-37 north of Running Water. The facility would cross the downstream portion of the river segment designated as a recreation river and would cross property owned by the Army Corps of Engineers. The overall length of the alignment would be 2.5 miles, including 2,950 feet for the bridge itself. Under the other two construction alternatives, the facility would cross the river at a point near Verdel, Nebraska, and a point near Santee, Nebraska, and Springfield, South Dakota. The estimated cost under the preferred alternative is $15.2 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The structure would provide a convenient river crossing for those living near Niobrara and Running Water. Currently, travelers starting at Niobrara would have to travel approximately 45 miles east to get to Yankton, South Dakota, or 60 miles west to the Fort Randall crossing. By the year 2015, an estimated 340 vehicles would use the crossing each day. The crossing would improve emergency services in the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Right-of-way requirements would displace 13 acres of prime farmland and 4 acres of wetlands. Construction activity would temporarily disturb wildlife and the local ecology. The facility would be a visual intrusion in a recognized scenic area. The segment of the river in the study area is part of the Lewis and Clark National Trail. Under all three of the build alternatives, construction would adversely affect one or more historic sites; under the preferred alternative, construction would also adversely affect a historic ferry landing.

The treated water is injected into the unconfined aquifer on the other side of the slurry wall via 38 recharged wells and 15 recharged trenches, collectively referred to as the recharged system. Over time, the dewatering and especially the recharged system have a tendency to become clogged, which limits their effectiveness. A number of factors have been attributed to the degradation in performance of dewatering and recharged systems. These are air binding, sodium adsorption, metal precipitation, deposition of cementing agents, straining of suspended solids, and microbial growths or biofouling. This report presents the results of three separate assessments of reduced recharged capacity of a pump-and-treat system. The fate of carbon fines throughout the North Boundary system, clogging because of periodic losses of activated carbon fines, and growth of microorganisms in the recharged system are addressed.

AN - 36404416; 4802 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a ten-mile bypass of US 70 from its junction with I-40 in Wake County, North Carolina, to US 70 Business in Johnston County is proposed. The four-lane, controlled-access facility would bypass the town of Clayton and provide a vital link in the Intrastate High System, designed to support statewide growth and economic development. US 70 connects Raleigh, Smithfield, Goldsboro, Kinston, New Bern, and Morehead City, and provides access to the Morehead City port and the Bogue Bank beaches. The section of US 70 around Clayton is heavily developed with a mixture of residential units, and retail and commercial businesses, and the existing four-lane highway is often congested. A Global Air Transpark is planned for construction along US 70. Goods manufactured at the site would be loaded onto cargo planes and flown to their destination. US 70 would be the major surface transportation to Raleigh and Morehead City. The bypass would connect US 70 traffic with two major traffic carriers, I-40 and the future outer loop around Raleigh. Five alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under each of the build alternatives, the project would involve construction along a new alignment south of existing US 70. The project would require four to five grade separations and involve constructing a separate interchange with I-40, NC 42, SR 1560, and US 70 Business. Under Alternative II, Alternative IIA, and Alternative IIB, the I-40 interchange would be located roughly 2.9 miles south of the existing US 70. Under Alternative III, the interchange would be located four miles south of the existing US 70; under this alternative, the facility would maintain a more southerly route throughout its proposed length. Under each of the build alternatives, the facility would connect with US 70 Business at the same location. The estimated costs of the project ranges from $63.5 million to $69.5 million, depending on the alternative selected. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide a system link between two major highways in the central region of the state, separate local from through traffic, reduce traffic congestion, and improve safety. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Right-of-ways requirements under the four build alternatives would displace up to 25 residences and 3 businesses, 62 acres of nontidal wetlands, 197 acres of farmlands, and 284 acres of woodlands. Up to 85 receptors would experience noise levels in excess of federal standards. From 15 to 21 stream crossings would be required.

Preparation date: September 26, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SR 0332, SECTION B01, MIFFLIN COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA. AN - 36401395; 4808 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of State Route (SR) 322 in Mifflin County, Pennsylvania, is proposed. The corridor length is approximately four miles, extending from the interchange with SR 655 to just north of Mount Pleasant. Within the study area, the existing SR 322 is a two-lane roadway linking two four-lane facilities; it is one of the few remaining unimproved sections of SR 322 between the cities of Harrisburg and State College. The project area has experienced significant levels of development in recent years, and this growth has resulted in increased traffic. Five alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The build alternatives under consideration include two bypass alternatives, an upgrade of existing SR 322 alternative, and an upgrade and combination bypass alternative. Under the preferred alternative (Green Option 1), the facility would begin just north of the intersection with SR 655, then head northwest on new alignment over a proposed bridge at Tea Creek, then northeast between the Church Hill community and the Mifflin County Airport. The facility would then continue across the Kishacoquillas Valley, approximately 700 feet west of an industrial complex. An interchange with a connector road would be included in order to provide commuters and commercial traffic access to this industrial area. Directly west of Milroy, the facility would head in a northerly direction, with bridges over Lingle and Laurel Creeks and an underpass of existing SR 322, just south of the Mount Pleasant residential community. Traffic would then be routed northeast, bypassing Mount Pleasant on the northeast side, with a bridge over T839. The facility would tie into existing SR322 near the access road to the Laurel Creek Reservoir and Filtration Plant. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide a system link between two major highways; improve mobility for those who live and work in the study area as well as visitors to the State College area; improve traffic and safety conditions, primarily by separating local and through traffic; and also improve access for emergency vehicles. Under the preferred alternative, the facility would displace fewer residences and businesses than under any of the other build alternatives. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, rights-of-way requirements would displace 3 residences, 117.6 acres of productive farmlands, and 11.3 acres of wetlands; under this alternative, the facility would displace more wetland acres than under any of the other build alternatives.

Preparation date: September 22, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CODY TO YELLOWSTONE HIGHWAY, US HIGHWAY 14/16/20, PARK COUNTY, WYOMING. AN - 36399509; 4815 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of 27.5 miles of US 14/16/20 from west of Cody, Wyoming, to Yellowstone National Park is 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 improvements is located entirely within the Shoshone National Forest and follows the North Fork of the Shoshone River. The highway was constructed 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 final 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 six-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 (50-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. Under Build Alternative B (the preferred alternative), the project would be identical to that under 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 constructed, for the most part, to current design standards with sufficient capacity to accommodate projected traffic for the next 20 years. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the highway would encroach on 1.8 acres of floodplains, displace 4.5 acres of wetlands, and disturb 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 affected during construction, and some species would experience a permanent loss (110 acres) of crucial winter range. Five historic or archaeological properties would be adversely affected.

AN - 36399769; 4807 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of approximately 25 miles of US 219 from I-68 in Garrett County, Maryland, to the interchange with State Route (SR) 3041 in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, is proposed. US 219 is a major north-south transportation corridor providing access from Canada and New York south through Pennsylvania, Maryland, and West Virginia. A 62-mile portion of this highway, from the Maryland border to Ebensburg, Pennsylvania, was designated as a corridor of the Appalachian Development Highway System in 1965. Within the project area, US 219 fails to meet current design criteria for horizontal curves, vertical grades, sight distances, pavement widths, and shoulder widths. Serious congestion problems occur in the Meyersdale area because of the high concentration of Amish vehicles and a substantial amount of east-west traffic adding to the traffic mix in the downtown area. This draft EIS is arranged in two parts: in Part I, a No Action Alternative, under which the existing US 219 corridor, and three corridors on new location for the entire 25-mile length of the project, would be upgraded, is considered; in Part II, eight alternatives for improving the section of US 219 in and around Meyersdale are considered. Under the preferred alternative, only the Meyersdale improvements would be implemented, and, more specifically, under the Western Alternative, the facility would extend 5.1 miles from Hunsrick Summit in the south to a point on US 219 near Indian Dig and Pony Farm Roads in the north. A four-lane divided limited-access highway would be constructed on new alignment to the west of the borough of Meyersdale and existing US 219. At the northern terminus, a grade-separated interchange would provide access in all directions. South of Meyersdale, the alignment would cross existing US 219, where a full diamond interchange would provide access to and from Meyersdale and Summit Township. Southbound traffic would merge directly onto existing US 219 at the southern terminus. The estimated construction costs of the preferred alternative are $66.0 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the facility would reduce congestion on the existing facility, provide for planned growth and economic development, improve safety, separate local and regional traffic, and improve the regional transportation network. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the facility would displace up to 6 residences and 3 businesses, fill 1.9 acres of wetlands, encroach on 24 acres of floodplain, adversely affect 137.2 acres of farmland, and cross 10 streams.

Preparation date: September 15, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - BRIGGS PROJECT, INYO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36407288; 4761 AB - PURPOSE: The construction by CR Briggs Corporation of a an open-pit heap-leach gold mine project on a 940-acre site in the Panamint Valley in southeastern California is proposed. The site is approximately 34 air miles northeast of the city of Ridgecrest and located about 3.5 miles west of the Panamint Ridge ridgeline that forms that southwestern boundary of Death Valley National Monument. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the Briggs project would mine ore and associated unmineralized rock from an open pit. Unmineralized rock would be discarded in waste rock dumps that would be constructed outward from the steep slopes of the Panamint Range. Ore would be processed using cyanide heap leach methods; gold would be recovered using carbon adsorption. The project would be designed to mine and process an estimated 21 million tons of ore and approximately 27 million tons of waste rock. At an average ore processing rate of four million tons annually, the project would operate for about six years. Major components of the project would include a mine pit, two waste rock piles, crushing and ore transport facilities, a heap leach pad, process water storage ponds, a gold processing plant, a clay borrow area, and growth media stockpiles. The heap leach pad and process water ponds would be constructed with low permeability liners consisting of plastic membranes and compacted low permeability fine-grained soil. The soil would be supplied from an onsite borrow area and one off-site location. Power would be provided by onsite generators. Approximately 400 gallons per minute of water would be required, primarily for ore processing and dust control. During construction, surface soils from disturbed areas would be salvaged and stockpiled for use as growth media for final site reclamation. Reclamation would occur concurrent with site activities in areas that would not be subject to additional disturbance. Decommissioning and reclamation would occur for about one year after completion of operations. Action alternatives recommending different ore beneficiation rates, a reduced project size, modified waste rock pile configurations, and alternative waste rock and processed ore disposal are also under consideration. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would provide 130 direct jobs and 160 indirect jobs, generating local economic benefits of about $23 million, including payroll, goods and services purchased, and taxes. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would disturb up to 505 acres of desert land and adversely affect two species classified by the state as sensitive: the Townsend big-eared bat and the burrowing owl. The project would cause a local exceedance of air quality standards for particulates. The waste rock pile, the heap leach pile, and the mine pit highwall would adversely affect visual resources. Heavy truck traffic would create some safety hazards on local roadways.

Preparation date: September 8, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - LAKE ARTERIAL EXTENSION (STATE TRUNK HIGHWAY 31-LAYTON AVENUE); KENOSHA, MILWAUKEE, AND RACINE COUNTIES, WISCONSIN. AN - 36405073; 4814 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a 21-mile north-south arterial highway extending from the southern Milwaukee, Wisconsin, metropolitan area to communities in Kenosha, Milwaukee, and Racine 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-Build Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this final EIS. Under any of the build alternatives, an arterial with either two or three 12-foot-wide driving lanes in each direction separated by a median would be constructed. Under Alternative 2, in the northern portion of the project corridor, the alignment 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 in the northern portion of the corridor (Layton and Howell avenues) would be upgraded 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, the alignment would have follow the same alignment as under Alternative 2. Under both of the alternatives, improvements would include a 50-foot-wide corridor of additional rights-of-way for possible future mass transit use. The estimated costs of the build alternatives range from $120 million to $160 million. The No-Build Alternative is the recommended alternative because of its strong support from local government units and the general public throughout the project corridor, and the opposition to both of the build alternatives. Most local resident and local government representatives testified that area transportation needs would be met by existing roadways and by a greater commitment to mass transit. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under any of the build alternatives, the facility would help to 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. Under the No-Build Alternative, not building the facility would avoid adverse effects to the area's natural resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under any of the build alternatives, the project would involve the conversion of 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. The project would require the displacement of up to 64 residences and 12 businesses; and three historic sites and five archaeological sites would be adversely affected. Under the No-Build Alternative, traffic congestion would increase and safety on certain roadways would decrease. Additionally, land development along the I-94 corridor in areas well outside the established and planned urbanized area would be further encouraged. These problems 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.

AN - 15222296; 4786 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a four-lane divided highway to replace existing US 71 connecting Texarkana, Arkansas, and the Louisiana state line, is proposed. The existing US 71 is a two-lane highway extending from Kansas City, Missouri, to Shreveport, Louisiana. The new section of highway would begin at Loop 151/245 on the south side of Texarkana and extend south for a distance of 28 to 30 miles to just north of Ida, Louisiana. The highway would provide an additional north-south freeway that would fill the 500-mile wide gap that presently exists in the north-south freeway system between I-35 in Oklahoma and I-55 along the Mississippi River. It would also complement four east-west interstate highways currently in place. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under each of the build alternatives, the facility would have six interchanges. Under Alternative B, the western-most route, the facility would have a total roadway length of 28.2 miles, and generally follow an alignment to the west of existing US 71. Under Alternative C, the facility would be 29.9 miles long and generally follow an alignment just to the east of existing US 71. Under Alternative E, the facility would be 29.1 miles long and generally follow an alignment just to the west of existing US 71. The alignment, which would be located in between the other two proposed alignments, was developed in response to public comments and questions raised in public information workshops. Under a fourth alternative, the existing US 71 would be upgraded along the existing alignment. The estimated costs under the three build alternatives range from $184.2 million to $203.0 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The facility would reduce congestion on the existing facility, provide for planned growth and economic development, improve safety, and improve local, regional, and national transportation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the facility would displace up to 1,063 acres of agricultural and timber lands, 106 acres of cultivated land, 242 acres of abandoned oil fields and pasture, 403 acres of prime farmland soils, 223 acres of pine forest, 71 acres of hardwood forest, 180 acres of wetlands, and 231 acres of floodplain. Up to 38 residences and businesses would be required to relocate. Up to 29 cultural resource properties would experience encroachment, and 46 streams would be crossed, temporarily degrading water quality.

AN - 36397244; 4794 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of approximately 12 miles of US 119 in Letcher County, Kentucky, is proposed. US 119 begins at its junction with US 25E south of Pineville, Kentucky, and runs northeast to the communities of Cumberland, Whitesburg, and Pikeville, exiting the state into West Virginia at Williamson. US 119 is an integral part of the Appalachian Development Highway System, which, together with interstate highway system, was designed to stimulate economic development in the region. The segment of US 119 from Partridge to Whitesburg, the county seat, is important because it links the communities of extreme southeastern Kentucky to the rest of the Appalachian System. Pine Mountain, a 125-mile-long overthrust block, has historically been a barrier to upgrading this segment of US 119, a two-lane facility with inadequate pavement widths, narrow or nonexistent shoulders, and unstable embankment areas. Data gathered from 1987 to 1990 indicated that this section of US 119 had more accidents than any other comparable Kentucky highways. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under Alternative R-I, construction would involve realigning and improving the existing highway. Under both Alternative C-1 and Alternative C-5, construction would involve making an open cut through Pine Mountain. Under both Alternative T-2 and Alternative T-5, construction would involve constructing a tunnel through the mountain. Under both Alternative C-5 and Alternative T-5, the facility would be routed up the valley of the Poor Fork of the Cumberland River on the south side of the mountain; while under both Alternative C-1 and Alternative T-2, the facility would be aligned through the valley of Cowan Creek on the north side of the mountain. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would improve deficiencies in the existing highway, provide a critical connecting link in the overall transportation system, promote economic development, and reduce the number of traffic accidents. The roadway would improve the general circulation and accessibility between the area and the surrounding community. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Right-of-way acquisition would displace up to 105 residences, 4 businesses, 3 cemeteries, 2 churches, and 1 school. Under some of the alternatives, the facility would encroach onto the Pine Mountain Wildlife Management Area, a 6,000-acre area managed by the state. Under all of the build alternatives, the facility would adversely affect the habitat of five endangered species found in the area. Under any of the tunnel or open-cut alternatives, the facility would produce a drawdown of the groundwater table in the vicinity of the construction. Numerous stream crossings and instances of floodplain encroachment would occur under all of the build alternatives. Streams and waterways would experience increased siltation resulting from construction.

The enzyme extract was found to reduce TNT levels in four of the six soils examined over a 35-day incubation period. With more extensive incubation, treatments containing the enzyme extract significantly reduced TNT levels in highly contaminated soils as well. Based on monoclonal antibody investigations of the pond sediment, a stonewort (Nitella sp.) was found to be the source of the nitrate reductase enzyme found in the sediment. Samples of the stonewort were collected and used to treat the same six soils. Stonewort was effective in reducing the TNT concentrations in all six soils. Based on this work, use of the nitrate reductase in highly concentrated form may be effective for treating low to highly contaminated soils in bioreactors. However, to obtain sufficient enzyme for this purpose, the gene responsible for enzyme production will need to be cloned into a rapidly growing microorganism. Use of intact stonewort plant material will be an effective treatment for in situ bioremediation. 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene, Nitrate reductase, Enzyme, Stonewort, Explosive.

AN - 36404251; 4704 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a four- to six-lane, limited-access highway from the proposed Veterans Expressway in Hillsborough County, Florida, to US 98 in Hernando County is proposed. The project would be approximately 43 miles long, and include 12 interchanges, associated improvements to connecting or intersecting roads, and provisions for future commuter rail transit and/or high-occupancy-vehicle (HOV) lanes within the roadway median. The right-of-way width would be 300 to 400 feet. The project area is divided into two zones: zone 1 extends 15 miles from the Northwest Freeway near Van Dyke Road to State Route 52 (SR 52) in Pasco County, while zone 2 extends 28 miles from SR 52 to US 98. Each zone is subdivided into several sections, for which two to four alternative alignments are under consideration. Traffic demand projections indicate a need for a six-lane highway throughout most of the length of the project, except for the northernmost and southernmost portions, where four lanes would be adequate. Within zone 1, interchanges with the Veterans Expressway, Van Dyke Road, Lutz-Lake Fern Road, SR 54, the proposed Bi-County Expressway, the proposed Ridge Road extension, and SR 52 would be provided. Within zone 2, interchanges with County Line Road, Spring Hill Drive, SR 50, and Centralia Road would be provided. In addition to various build alternatives, three other alternatives are under consideration: (1) improving the existing regional roadway network, (2) providing rapid transit and other alternative transportation modes, and (3) a No-Build Alternative. The estimated cost of the preferred build alternative $327.9 million for both construction and rights-of-way. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The highway would serve an area that is already experiencing rapid residential and industrial development. It would relieve congestion on local roadways, resulting in decreased emissions of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide. It is estimated that by the year 2010, the proposed highway would reduce traffic on US 19, US 41, and Interstate 75 by 20 to 50 percent. Secondary impacts would include improved access by commuters and other area residents to Tampa and St. Petersburg. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, rights-of-way would require 2,369 acres of land, displacing 99 residences, 3 businesses, 2 farms, and 181 acres of wetlands. Up to 111 sites, primarily residences, would experience noise levels in excess of federal standards. Several federally protected species have been observed in the project vicinity, including the Wood Stork, Bald Eagle, American Alligator, and Eastern indigo snake; some habitat displacement is likely to occur.

AN - 36396598; 4738 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a revised water control plan for the Missouri River main stem system is proposed. The main stem system consists of six dams and reservoirs located in Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Nebraska. Water flowing down the Missouri River is stored in the six lakes and released as needed for downstream purposes. The Corps of Engineers operates the main stem system to balance the needs for flood control, navigation, irrigation, hydropower, water supply, water quality control, recreation, and fish and wildlife. The water control plan was last revised in 1979. No structural changes to the reservoir system or navigation channels are under consideration. Instead, alternative plans focus on the amount of water stored in the permanent pool and the carryover multiple use zones of the lakes, and the allocation of stored water for downstream needs. Under the preferred alternative, implementation would maintain the permanent pool at current levels of 18 million acre-feet. The normal navigation season would be shortened from eight months to seven months. Navigation service criteria would be modified so that releases from main stem lakes would be reduced as drought conditions approach. Springtime flows would be increased in order to create a more natural flow pattern for the benefit of native fish species. The movement of stored water among the upper three lakes would be modified in order to create a rising pool in each reservoir, benefiting tern, plover, and native fish. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, implementation would improve recreational opportunities and fish and wildlife habitat within the main stem system. Habitat improvements would occur in all nine river reaches, and the greatest improvements would occur downstream from Sioux City, Iowa. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Annual benefits for navigation would be reduced by 15 percent as a result of the shortening of the season and the changes in flow patterns.

Preparation date: August 22, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - DISPOSAL AND REUSE OF LORING AIR FORCE BASE, AROOSTOOK COUNTY, MAINE. AN - 36404594; 4646 AB - PURPOSE: The disposal and reuse of Loring Air Force Base (AFB), located in Aroostook County, Maine, is proposed. Loring AFB, which comprises 9,035 acres, is located 400 miles north of Boston and 5 miles west and south of the Canadian border at New Brunswick. The AFB consists of the 8,317-acre main base as well as nine off-site parcels totaling 718 acres. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, implementation would include a comprehensive reuse plan for a mixed-use airport with civilian aviation activities, including general aviation, commercial aviation, maintenance, and air cargo components. These aviation uses would require up 1,894 acres of on-site property. Airfield improvements would include the installation of a precision instrument landing system and approach path on Runway 01/19, security fencing, runway and taxiway guidance signs, an airport beacon, and a weather observation station. Aviation support facilities, to be located west and south of the runway, would include the air traffic control tower, fuel system, fire station, hangars, and air cargo, maintenance, commercial aviation, and general aviation buildings. Additional uses of the property would include 599 acres for industrial development; 131 acres for medical and educational facilities; 194 acres for office and other commercial uses; 598 acres for residential land uses, 1,717 acres for open space and an urban park, and 3,304 acres for agricultural and forestry development. The 594-acre Madawaska Dam site, located off-site, would be set aside as a natural resource conservation area. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In general, the redevelopment would provide for aviation-related, commercial, educational, and recreational use of the land in agreement with the community's reuse plan. Under the proposed action, reuse activities would increase employment levels by approximately 4,461 direct jobs and 3,339 secondary jobs by the year 2014. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Proposed development activities would convert 1,697 acres of farmland to nonagricultural use. The quantities of hazardous materials used and wastes generated would be greater than under closure conditions. The responsibility for managing hazardous materials and wastes would shift from a single user to multiple, independent users, which could reduce the area's capability of responding to hazardous materials and waste spills and would increase the regulatory burden. Air pollutant emissions would increase, and surface water runoff would result from 572 acres of ground disturbance. The number of people living in areas exposed to surface traffic noise levels of 65 decibels or greater would increase by 749. Development activities could adversely affect historic properties that are potentially eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.

This second final supplement to the final EIS of January 1975 on the implementation of the hurricane protection project addresses the mitigation plan. The originally authorized hurricane protection plan consisted of placement of barrier structures in the Rigolets and Chef Menteur tidal passes and the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal. In addition, levees were to be built along the entire lakefront from Bonnet Carre Spillway to South Point, with a connection to the Mississippi River levees along the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal. Ring levees were to be built around the New Orleans East and Chalmette areas. The barrier complexes were challenged in court, and an injunction was placed against their construction. Upon reevaluation of the plan, the barrier complexes were abandoned permanently, and the project was confined to the raising of levees. The levee alignment in Saint Charles Parish was moved from the lakefront to just north of Airline Highway (US 61). Annualized losses due to measures under the project include 854 acres of brackish/saline marsh, 108 acres of fresh/intermediate marsh, 233 acres of marsh pond, and 134 acres of forested wetlands, for a total of 1,329 acres. Annual losses of habitat amount to 2,610 average annual habitat units for seven wildlife species. The tentatively selected plan for mitigation of these losses would involve the protection of approximately five miles of the Manchac Wildlife Management Area (WMA) from shoreline erosion, thus preserving 1,100 acres of wetlands annually. The shoreline lies along Lake Pontchartrain from First Canal to a point 2,000 feet south of the southernmost boundary of the WMA. A combination of rock dike and marsh grass plantings would provide protection to the shoreline. More specifically, shoreline protection would be provided via a series of rock dikes, each of which would be 4.5 feet high and 200 feet long; 50-foot gaps would separate the dikes. Shoreline protection would be supplemented by planting of marsh vegetation in the area between the shoreline and the dike. Dredged material would be temporarily deposited along the edge of the flotation channel or stored in holding barges until dike construction was completed in order to allow rock-carrying barges to enter and leave the site. The dredge would then be used to backfill the channel following construction. The estimated first cost of the mitigation measures is $4.1 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The provisions under the plan would mitigate over 80 percent of the wildlife acreage loss and nearly 100 percent of the habitat units lost as a result of hurricane protection. The plan would be responsive to all project planning constraints; effective and economically efficient; supported by state and federal interests; and located on public land. The plantings and bank protection would preserve wildlife and fishery habitat on 300 acres of marsh, 244 acres of cypress, and 600 acres of marsh ponds each year. The mitigation land would be accessible to residents of all affected parishes. There would be a net gain of 5,000 person-days of sport fishing and hunting, and 100,000 pounds of commercial fin and shellfish harvest. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction of the flotation channel would result in significant, long-term violations of Louisiana State Water Quality Standards. Dike construction would disturb and displace lake bottom habitat.

AN - 36393928; 4737 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of facilities for light-draft vessels at Ma'alaea Harbor located on Maui, Hawaii, is proposed. The federal portion of the improvements would consist of realigning the entrance channel and modifying the existing breakwater to protect the new entrance channel. Focal issues raised during the scoping process included the shortage of berths, vessel damage, serious navigation problems, inadequate harbor facilities, and concern about the impacts of any improvements on area surfing sites. Under the preferred alternative (Federal Plan 1), improvements would include a 620-foot-long extension to the existing south breakwater; a 610-foot-long entrance channel, varying in width from 150 to 180 feet and in depth from 12 to 15 feet; a 12-foot- deep, 1.7-acre turning basin, ; a 720-foot-long, 80-foot-wide, 8- foot-deep main access channel; and a 400-foot-long revetted mole on the seaward side of the existing south breakwater for a bus turnaround. About 80 feet of the existing east breakwater head would be removed, and about 27,000 cubic yards of material would be dredged from the harbor basin, including the turning basin, access channel, and new entrance channel. Some of the dredged material would be used for the construction of the breakwater extension and revetted mole. Total estimated construction costs are $11.7 million ($8.45 million federal and $3.25 nonfederal). This final supplement to the final EIS of September 1980 is issued in order to update alternative plans and evaluation studies; the project had remained unfunded until fiscal 1989. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The improvements would reduce the surge within the harbor basin, reduce navigation hazards in the entrance channel, and provide the opportunity for the addition of commercial and recreational berthing space and attendant harbor facilities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The improvements would increase harbor use, and increased use would further degrade water quality within the basin. Ongoing deposition of sediments into the harbor would occur, and turbulence from boat traffic would resuspend fine sediments. Dredging of the entrance channel and placement of the breakwater extension would destroy rich coral reef and benthic organisms. Surfing areas located adjacent to the entrance channel would be destroyed or modified by the new structures and the dredging; a small sandy beach at the east end of the harbor would also be destroyed.

Preparation date: August 18, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - ANACOSTIA RIVER AND TRIBUTARIES, WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, AND MONTGOMERY AND PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTIES, MARYLAND. AN - 36404302; 4736 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan to restore fish and wildlife habitat in the Anacostia River and its tributaries is proposed. The river basin is a 170-square-mile sub-basin of the Potomac River. The headwaters originate in the piedmont and coastal plain areas of Montgomery and Prince George's counties, Maryland, and the river joins the Potomac River in the District of Columbia. Prior to urbanization, the Anacostia River basin contained extensive tidal and non-tidal freshwater wetlands, but wetlands area has been reduced from roughly 2,600 acres to less than 100 today. Fish population in the river has declined in recent years as a result of poor water quality, inadequately controlled stormwater runoff, channelization, and barriers to fish migration. Under the recommended plan, implementation would provide for the construction of 80 acres of tidal and non-tidal freshwater wetlands, the restoration of five miles of piedmont streams, and the planting of 33 acres of bottomland hardwood forest. Roughly 604 fish and wildlife units would be restored annually over a 50-year period. These activities would occur within three independent political jurisdictions. Within the District of Columbia, 75 acres of freshwater tidal wetlands would be restored, and six acres in the vicinity of Kingman Lake would be reforested. Within Prince George's County, two acres of wetlands would be constructed, some 8,000 feet of stream would be restored, and 16 acres of riparian area would be reforested. Within Montgomery County, three existing stormwater management ponds would be retrofitted, two stormwater management wetlands would be constructed, and 17,000 feet of stream would be restored. The estimated project costs within each jurisdiction are $9.3 million, $3.3 million, and $6.2 million, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the recommended plan, implementation would restore fish and wildlife habitat for significant resources in the Anacostia River basin. The environmental restoration would enhance the aesthetic value of the river basin, the commercial value of residential property near the river, and the recreational uses of the river. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction and restoration activities would temporarily increase runoff; some cultural resources would be adversely affected by the Paint Branch stream restoration.

AN - 15225530; 4707 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a 12.5-mile, north-south, multilane, divided highway linking Interstate 55 (I-55) to I-80 near Chicago, Illinois, is proposed. The highway, to be known as Federal Aid Primary Route 340, would pass through Cook, DuPage, and Will counties, 25 miles southwest of the downtown Chicago area. The major areas of controversy concern the location of interchanges and the protection of the north bluff area of the Des Plaines River Valley, which includes a creek, a nature preserve, and two forest preserves. Numerous alternatives evaluated in the early stages of the project were found to be inadequate; these include a No Action Alternative, the Transportation System Management Alternative, Mass Transit Alternative, an upgrade of the existing highway, and an expressway build alternative. Under the preferred alternative, the facility would be a freeway with interchanges at I-80, U.S. Route 6, Illinois Route 7 (159th Street), 143rd Street/Illinois Route 171 (Archer Avenue, 127th Street, and I-55. Densely populated subdivisions would be avoided, and sufficient right-of- way would be acquired to allow local agencies to construct a bikeway outside of access control and right-of-way limits. Under current plans, the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority would construct and finance the freeway as a toll facility. Additional properties threatened by the development would include the Lustron House, an architecturally significant building on 135th Street, a recreational trail following the Des Plaines River, and a canal that runs parallel to the river. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The freeway would ease suburban traffic congestion by improving the fragmented highway network. Ending the project at I-80 would provide access to the major east-west route serving southern communities such as New Lenox and Joliet. It would result in reduced travel time and distances, energy savings, and reduced emissions of air pollutants. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, rights-of-way requirements would displace 38 residences, 3 businesses, one structure eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, and 8.9 acres of wetlands. Traffic-generated noise would adversely affect several locations along the project.

Preparation date: August 8, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - COLUMBIA RIVER SYSTEM OPERATION REVIEW. AN - 36408299; 4741 AB - PURPOSE: The development of a system operating strategy and a regional forum for the Columbia River System to allow interested parties other than federal agencies a role in making decisions involving power distribution and allocation within the region is proposed. The Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) markets power generated from 12 hydro projects operated by the Army Corps of Engineers and 2 projects operated by the Bureau of Reclamation. This programmatic review was initiated in response to demands by Indian tribes and fish and wildlife agencies for consultation on matters involving system planning and operations; another factor was the recent designation of the Snake River sockeye salmon as an endangered species and the chinook salmon as a threatened species. Seven operational alternatives are considered in this draft EIS in response to the salmon stocks issue: (1) operations prior to the Endangered Species Act designation; (2) current system operations, including efforts to provide additional anadromous fish flows; (3) flow augmentation to improve the chances of fish survival; (4) management of water levels at upstream storage projects to keep the reservoirs as full as possible for as long as possible; (5) drawdown of the reservoirs at the four projects on the lower Snake River to near ""natural river'' elevations in order to increase the velocity of water through the reservoir; (6) a less extensive drawdown of the reservoirs along the lower Snake River; and (7) setting fish flow targets based on storage content and other factors. Seven alternative methods of broadening public involvement in major decisions are also considered. Additional issues examined in this draft EIS are the need to renew or change current Canadian Entitlement Allocation Agreements, and to renegotiate and renew the Pacific Northwest Coordination Agreement. POSITIVE IMPACTS: This programmatic review is an effort to develop comprehensive, multipurpose management of the Columbia River System, a management method that would be responsive to public concerns as well as to the demands for energy production and natural resources protection. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Introducing flow improvements to benefit migrating anadromous fish would diminish the effectiveness of the system for traditional river uses. Flow augmentation measures would require storing water in the winter, a time when it would ordinarily be used to generate electricity. A loss in power- generating efficiency would increase the costs of meeting electrical demand. Keeping upstream storage sites as full as possible would detract from downstream sites, which are popular with recreationists. Reservoir drawdowns would have adverse impacts on resident fish, disrupting their habitat, spawning, and food supply; drawdowns would also reduce the amount of water available for irrigation.

Stress normalization allows a variable geotechnical property to be reduced to an equivalent value at a standard confining stress. A new concept, the Stress Focus, was identified which provides a basis for understanding soil strength as a function of confining stress. This study demonstrated that sand friction angles for different initial relative densities converge to a Stress Focus at high confining stress (approximately 100 atm), where the strength behavior is similar to that of a sedimentary rock. Dilation of dense sands decreases with increased confining stress until the Stress Focus is reached, as confirmed using historic high pressure triaxial test data as well with CPT measurements from laboratory chamber tests and uniform soil layers. The paths of convergence to the Stress Focus are exponentially related to confining stress and are the basis for development of CPT cone and sleeve friction resistance normalization techniques. The overburden stress at the Stress Focus is soil type dependent. The stress exponent for SPT normalization was shown to be equal to the CPT derived stress exponent. CPT correlations to geotechnical properties were established using both CPT cone resistance and friction ratio.

The HEC-RAS River Analysis System is intended to be the successor to the current steady-flow HEC-2 Water Surface Profiles Program as well as provide unsteady flow, sediment transport, and hydraulic design capabilities in the future. A common data representation of a river network is used by all modeling methods, thus allowing the user to more easily migrate from steady-flow to other one-dimensional flow calculations. The HEC-RAS program provides a steady-flow model with several significant advances over HEC-2. An overview of the Version 1 program and some of the improved hydraulic features are presented.

AN - 36404434; 4658 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a new hydroelectric project with an estimated installed capacity of 150 megawatts for the Clavey River near Sonora in Tuolumne County, California, is proposed. The project area is a relatively undeveloped watershed in the central Sierra Nevada foothills and yellow pine belt transition zone extending west into the Central Valley of California. Generation facilities would be located on lands managed by the Forest Service (FS), and the transmission line would extend across private property and lands managed by the FS and the Bureau of Land Management. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (license denial), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the project would consist of a roller-compacted concrete dam 1,765 feet long and 413 feet high, creating a 114,000 acre-feet reservoir; two diversion structures, ten feet high, on Hull and Reed Creeks; a drop inlet structure on Bera Creek with 6,220 feet of pipeline to convey water to the reservoir; a pressurized underground tunnel, 58,432 feet long and 12 feet in diameter; an underground powerhouse containing two turbine generating units; a horseshoe-shaped tailrace tunnel from the powerhouse to the reregulation reservoir; a concrete gravity dam, 105 feet high and 350 feet long, creating a reregulating reservoir occupying 13 acres; a powerhouse access tunnel containing three 230-kilovolt power cables; a 1.5-acre outdoor switchyard; a 230-kilovolt overhead transmission line, 50.8 miles long; 6 miles of new access road and 27 miles of widened or surfaced existing roadway; two tunnel waste disposal sites occupying 46 acres; and various fish and wildlife mitigation features and public outdoor recreation facilities. The project would be constructed by the Turlock Irrigation District and Tuolumne County. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would have a beneficial economic impact on the local area, reducing unemployment and increasing personal income. It would also help to meet power demand in a region whose population is expected to grow 1.5 percent annually. The project would lessen regional reliance on oil and natural gas consumption. It would generate power equivalent to either 618,800 barrels of oil or 3,766 million cubic feet of natural gas annually. Improved access to the river and the development of the reservoir would increase recreational uses. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction activities would temporarily increase emissions of particulates and ozone precursors in a nonattainment area. The project would result in the introduction of non-native fish and invertebrates to the Clavey River, conflicting with the river's designation as a Wild Trout Stream. Fish upstream movements would be blocked and fish habitat unavoidably altered by dam construction. Filling the storage reservoir would displace 600 acres of mature Sierran mixed conifer forest and result in the loss of a sensitive species of plant known as mountain lady's slipper. The spotted owl, pileated woodpecker, and other endangered species would be displaced.

AN - 36399390; 4715 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of NC 24 between I-95 and I-40 in Cumberland, Sampson, and Duplin counties, North Carolina, is proposed. The proposed project, which would be 38 to 40 miles in length, would involve the construction of a four-lane, controlled access freeway on new location to connect the existing four-lane section of NC 24 2.8 miles east of I-95 with I-40 south of its interchange with existing NC 24. The existing NC 24 is the major east-west highway in the study area, and it serves as a military transport route connecting Fayetteville and Jacksonville. Two primary build alternatives are considered in this draft EIS. Under the northern alternative, the facility would commence at the end of the existing four-lane section of NC 24 and proceed to a point 1.1 miles north of Stedman; it would then continue eastward to pass 1.4 miles northeast of Autryville and 3.5 miles north of Roseboro. Between Roseboro and Clinton, the route would cross existing NC 24, passing from north to south of this highway 5.3 miles west of Clinton. The alignment would then curve to the southeast of Clinton, 1.5 miles from its downtown area, and would then continue eastward to pass 2.4 miles south of Turkey. It would terminate at I-40, 2.5 miles southeast of the existing interchange with NC 24. Under the southern alternative, the facility would begin at the same point as under the northern alternative, then extend to the east to a point 0.3 miles north of Stedman. It would then continue eastward to pass 0.8 miles northeast of Autryville and 1.2 miles north of Roseboro. Between Roseboro and Clinton, it would cross existing NC 24, passing from north to south of this highway 6.8 miles west of Clinton. The alignment would then proceed south of Clinton, 4.9 miles from the downtown area, and continue eastward to pass 3.4 miles south of Turkey. It would terminate at the same location as the northern alternative. Five alternative crossover patterns connecting the two alternatives are also under consideration POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed highway improvement would save travel time for commercial, commuter, and military traffic; would reduce the number of accidents; and would stimulate the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed construction would displace or adversely affect up to 108 residences, 4 businesses, 702 acres of agricultural/cleared land, 8 potentially significant archaeological sites, 10 known cemeteries, and 584 acres of upland forests, and 105 acres of wetlands. Up to 49 receptors would experience significant increases in noise, 10 floodplains would be encroached, and 49 streams would be crossed. Some potential would exist for disturbing red-cockaded woodpecker habitat.

Preparation date: July 22, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NC 16, LUCIA TO NORTH OF NC 150; CATAWBA, GASTON, AND LINCOLN COUNTIES, NORTH CAROLINA. AN - 36407492; 4714 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of a 16-mile segment of NC 16 from just north of Lucia in Gaston County, North Carolina, through Lincoln County, to north of NC 150 in Catawba County, is proposed. The project is considered necessary to improve access and travel time between the rapidly developing Lake Norman area and the Charlotte metropolitan area. The proposed action would involve the construction of a four-lane, divided, limited-access expressway on a new alignment that would generally run parallel to the existing highway. The three build alternatives considered in this draft EIS are an Eastern Alternative, a Western Alternative, and a variation of the Western Alternative designated Western 2. Under the Eastern Alternative, the facility would diverge from existing NC 16 by 4,000 feet from its intersection with NC 273 and extend parallel to NC 16 about 3,000 feet to the east. It would then skirt the core of the development in Lucia and Lowesville before turning slightly westward north of SR 1397 to cross existing NC 16 just south of SR 1394. The proposed corridor would then run generally parallel to the CSX railroad tracks, bypass Denver to the east and turns northward to intercept existing NC 16 about 7,000 feet north of NC 150. Under the Western Alignment, the facility would turn northward soon after crossing NC 273 and bypass most of Lucia and Lowesville to the west; it would intersect SR 1511 roughly 5,800 feet west of existing NC 16. The proposed corridor would then continue northward, generally parallel to and east of SR 1386. Just north of NC 150, it would turn northeastward to intersect existing NC 16 about 8,200 feet north of NC 150. The facility under the two main alternatives would share a common alignment just to the east of St. James Road; under the Western 2 Alternative, it would involve the construction of a new alignment to the west of St. James Road. The total estimated costs of the three alternatives range from $88.5 to $103.8 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed highway improvements, traffic congestion on existing NC 16 would be eased, and long-term local traffic demands would be accommodated by increasing capacity. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements under the Eastern Alternative would displace 31 homes and 4 businesses, adversely affect 27 acres of wetlands and 478 acres of farmland, cross 36 streams, encroach on 21 acres of flood hazard areas, and adversely affect four noise-sensitive sites. Rights-of-way requirements under the Western Alternative would displace 70 homes, adversely affect 23.5 acres of wetlands and 450 acres of farmland, cross 68 streams, encroach on 11 acres of flood hazard areas, and adversely affect 13 noise-sensitive sites. The effects under the Western 2 Alternative are nearly identical to those under the Western Alternative.

AN - 36395384; 4705 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of a 12-mile segment of US 95 in Bonner County, Idaho, is proposed. US 95, which extends from Canada to the Mexican border near Yuma, Arizona, is Idaho's major north-south highway. The project area is located 62 miles south of the Canadian border near the town of Sandpoint; the area lies at the foot of the Selkirk Mountains and is bisected by Pend Oreille Lake/River complex. Traffic along US 95 is currently operating at a level of service rating of F within Sandpoint and a level of E outside of town. Traffic problems result from a heavy volume of truck traffic, inadequately designed intersections, 90-degree turning requirements, and poor traffic flow structures within the town. Two build alternatives and a No Action Alternative are considered in this draft EIS. Under the Through Town Alternative, improvement would involve reconstructing 10 miles of highway on existing alignment, upgrading the existing two-lane highway to four or five lanes, depending on the approach requirements; widening Long Bridge from two to four lanes, and providing a bicycle/pedestrian path; and implementing curve reductions and other street improvements along a one-mile stretch of the north and southbound routes in town. Under the Sand Creek Two-Lane Alternative, improvements would involve the construction of 9.3 miles of four-lane highway on existing alignment, and two miles of a proposed new alignment adjacent to Sand Creek and the Burlington Northern Railroad depot. This interchange/bridge structure would be 2,850 feet long and two lanes wide. Under this alternative, Long Bridge would be widened from two to four lanes. The estimated costs under the two build alternatives are $35.5 million and $39.4 million, respectively. The benefit-cost ratios for the two alternatives are 19.3 and 11.8. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed highway improvements, the level of service rating for US 95 should improve to a rating of C within the project area. The facility would be able to accommodate both through and local traffic. The improvement would reduce the risk of accidents. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the Through Town Alternative, historic resources and hazardous materials sites could be adversely affected. The level of service for the greatest number of vehicles would improve but a non-stop facility would not be provided for through traffic. Under the Sand Creek Alternative, the historic railroad depot, which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places, would be displaced. The Sand Creek structure would create a visual obtrusion as it passes along the banks of the creek between the central business district and the city beach.

Preparation date: July 20, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - RIO GUANAJIBO, PUERTO RICO. AN - 36400680; 4743 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a long-term flood protection plan for the cities of Mayaguez and San German, Puerto Rico, is proposed. Both cities are located in the Rio Guanajibo basin and experience flood damages of roughly $6.6 million per year. Mayaguez is located on the west central coast of Puerto Rico, about three miles from the mouth of the river; San German is located on the south bank of the river, 18 kilometers upstream from the ocean. Heavy rainfall coupled with runoff from the steep slopes of the upper basin could produce high discharges in a relatively short period of time. Under the recommended plan for the river basin, implementation would consist of the construction of a 5.41- kilometer floodwall and a levee system along developed areas in the floodplain and about 1.3 kilometers of channel improvements to Cano Majagual in order to protect the Mayaguez-Hormigueros area against the 100-year flood. The material for the construction of the levee would come from a borrow area located in the floodplain; once construction were complete, the borrow area would be landscaped to provide emergent wetlands and open water habitat to mitigate the loss of cattail wetlands. Implementation would also include 1.47 kilometers of channel improvements to Rio Guanajibo in the San German area in order to provide a 10-year level of protection. The channel would be trapezoidal with a 65-meter bottom width. The total estimated first cost of the recommended plan is $27.4 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the recommended plan, implementation would lessen flood damages for two very vulnerable areas. It would provide net economic benefits of roughly $4.0 million; the benefit-cost ratio for the plan would be 2.6 to 1. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the recommended plan, implementation would result in the loss of 141.6 acres of prime farmland, 22.5 acres of mangroves, 4.6 acres of wetlands, and recreational facilities in the Mayaguez area. Channel work would result in high short-term turbidity levels in both areas. Floodwalls and levees would create a visual barrier for residents living in close proximity to the structures.

Preparation date: July 8, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - PETALUMA RIVER FLOOD CONTROL IMPROVEMENTS SECTION 205, CITY OF PETALUMA, SONOMA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 15223771; 4734 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of flood protection measures for the Petaluma River within the city of Petaluma, California, is proposed. The project area is located 12 miles upstream from San Pablo Bay in Sonoma County, approximately 35 miles north of San Francisco. It extends from the Washington Street Bridge upstream to just beyond the confluence with Lynch Creek. During periods of heavy rainfall, the river is incapable of handling the runoff and flooding often occurs at the confluence with Lynch Creek. In this area, the river meanders through residential and commercial developments that occur within a few feet of the bank. Inadequate bridge openings, utility crossings and other obstructions, and limited channel capacities contribute to the flooding potential. The existing channel capacity of the river in this reach is approximately 2,800 cubic feet per second (cfs), equivalent to a five-year flood event. Under the locally preferred plan (Alternative B-3), the channel would be deepened and widened in order to carry 9,640 cfs below the Washington Creek confluence. The channel would be excavated to a depth of 17 feet: for 3,150 feet above the railroad mainline bridge, the channel would be trapezoidal in design; while the remaining 530 feet from the bridge to the lower end of the project area would be U-shaped in design. The U-shaped channel would consist of vertical sheet-pile walls coated with concrete to form a flush wall surface that would not extend above the existing bank; the channel bottom would be 95 feet wide in this section. Channel bottom widths would range from 45 feet to 70 feet in the trapezoidal portion. Reinforced concrete floodwalls would be constructed along both banks between Edith Street and the upstream project limits. A floodwall would also be constructed along the south bank of Washington Creek to provide a continuous level of flood protection along the tributary. Service roads 10 to 12 feet wide would be built along both banks for the entire length of the project. Two railroad bridges, the spurline and mainline bridges just upstream from Lakeville Street, would be replaced to improve hydraulic capacity; in addition, the Lakeville and Payran Street bridges would also be replaced. The channel improvements would require the dredging and disposal of 95,000 cubic yards (cy) of sediment; annual maintenance dredging of 3,000 cy would also be required. The estimated costs under the preferred plan are $19.0 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred plan, implementation would provide a 40-year level of flood protection for the area, reduce the economic burdens of flooding, and provide better access to and across the river. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: One business and two residences on the east bank of the river would be removed as part of the channel improvement. There would be a loss of exotic woody vegetation, intertidal mud flats, shaded aquatic habitat, brackish emergent marsh, grassland/ruderal habitat, scrub-shrub habitat, and habitat for the threatened Sacramento spittail fish. The U-shaped channel in the lower portion of the project area would detract from scenic values.

Sampling crews had noted the purge water in well 4-8 changed color after the first well volume was removed. A field sampling program was conducted to collect samples from each well as the wells were purged. Point source bailer samples were taken at the top, middle, and bottom of the water column in each well before and after each well was purged. The point source bailer samples showed the explosive analytes concentrations decreased from the top to the bottom of the water columns with the pre-purge samples being up to an order of magnitude higher than the post-purge samples. The explosive analytes concentrations in the purge water dropped one to two orders of magnitude or below detection limit after one well volume was removed. The chemical data indicate that the explosive contaminants are leaking into the wells through the well casing at or near the top of the water column in each well.

This magnetic anomaly is generally coincident with the Omaha Oil Field in northwest Gallatin County, Illinois. It was initially assumed that cultural sources of steel associated with this oil field were the primary source of the magnetic feature; however, similar oil fields overflown by the survey do not exhibit magnetic anomalies in the data set. The Luther Rister et ux well, drilled near the apex of the Omaha structural dome, encountered two zones of ultramafic intrusive rock containing 9.0 percent by volume magnetite. These intrusives were identified to be alnoites which are a class of mantle-derived ultramafic rock that can be associated with the incipient stages of crustal rifting.A ground magnetic survey verified the presence of the anomaly, and provided detailed data for 3-D modeling of the source. Petrophysical evaluations, magnetic susceptibility measurements and thin section modal analysis were made on drill cuttings from the ultramafic intrusives encountered in the Luther Rister well. These measurements were made to constrain the 3-D magnetic modeling by the petrophysical characteristics of the source.After removal of the regional magnetic field, the resulting 140 nT residual magnetic anomaly was successfully modeled using two ultramafic sills with an igneous feeder plug. The two igneous sills adequately account for the structural closure exhibited in the Omaha Oil Field and raise the interesting possibility of other hydrocarbon trapping structures generated by intrusives emplaced into the sedimentary section.

AN - 36384318; 4739 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of the existing federal project at Port Fourchon, Louisiana, is proposed. Port Fourchon is located near the mouth of Bayou Lafourche in southern Lafourche Parish; the port has approximately 50 facilities serving the oil and gas industry as well as commercial and recreational fishing vessels. An authorized federal project provides for a navigation channel 12 feet deep and 125 feet wide in Bayou Lafourche and Belle Pass from the Gulf of Mexico through Port Fourchon. The 4.4-mile-long channel has been enlarged to 20 feet by 230 feet by the Greater Lafourche Port Commission (GLPC). A wider and deeper channel is needed so that drilling rigs can be serviced and repaired at the port and other deep-draft vessels can use the port. Ten alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the nine action alternatives, the facility would provide channel depths ranging from 20 to 34 feet. Under the preferred alternative, a channel 24 feet deep and 300 feet wide would be provided; the entrance channel would be 26 feet deep. GLPC would be responsible for dredging berthing areas, constructing bulkheads and dockside facilities, and providing utilities for servicing vessels. All material dredged from the inshore channel would be used for marsh restoration and for shoreline erosion control along the gulf shoreline. The material would be hydraulically dredged and placed so that after settling, the elevation would be approximately the same as the adjacent marsh. The estimated initial cost under the preferred alternative is $3.3 million; total construction costs are $4.3 million; the benefit-cost ratio is 2.3. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The improvements in deep-draft navigation would provide economic benefits to the region and to the oil and gas industry. Under the preferred alternative, the improvement would reduce the rate of marsh loss and help to restore damaged wetlands; the high rate of marsh loss in the area is mainly due to erosion caused by wave action on unprotected shorelines. Roughly 246 acres of marsh would be built over a 50-year period under this plan. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Annual dredging of the offshore reach would disrupt benthic habitat in the offshore channel.

AN - 15223465; 4602 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a freeway, including a bridge crossing the Missouri River, within Saint Charles and Saint Louis counties, Missouri, is proposed. Five alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this final EIS; the two build alternatives each have three subalternatives. 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 Saint Louis County; proceed across the Missouri River to Route 94 in Saint 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. Under the preferred alternative (the Red Alignment), the facility 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. 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. A bridge approximately 2,800 feet long would span Creve Coeur Lake, Creve Coeur Creek, and associated wooded bottomland. The alignment would also cross the southern portion of the Creve Coeur Lake Memorial Park. This draft supplement to the final EIS of November 1992 considers the environmental effects of converting 184 acres of heavily-wooded parkland to highway use, and considers four alternative tracts of land to be offered as replacement property. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The chronic traffic congestion at the Missouri River crossings between Saint Charles and Saint Louis 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 Route 40/61, and I-70 and I-270. The development would continue to occur throughout Saint Charles County; on the alignments, induced development would take place at interchanges and along outer roads. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The public parkland would be adversely altered by the highway construction. 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.

Preparation date: June 30, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - OAKLAND OUTER AND INNER HARBORS DEEP-DRAFT NAVIGATION IMPROVEMENTS, ALAMEDA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA (FINAL SUPPLEMENT II TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENTS OF SEPTEMBER 1979 AND NOVEMBER 1984). AN - 15223684; 4629 AB - PURPOSE: The deepening and widening of the existing Oakland Harbor channels in the Port of Oakland, California, are proposed. The port lies on the east side of San Francisco Bay, near the western terminus of major rail and highway networks. Approximately 3.4 miles of the Outer Harbor and 4.0 miles of the Inner Harbor would be dredged. As originally authorized, disposal of the dredged material was planned for a site near Alcatraz Island, but those plans were abandoned in response to public concern about the impact on Bay resources, the mounding of previously disposed materials at Alcatraz, and recent regulations limiting the volume of materials that could be disposed near Alcatraz. This second final supplement to the final EISs of September 1979 and November 1984 considers 12 alternatives for disposing of roughly 6.6 million cubic yards (mcy) of dredged channel bottom, berth bottom, and bank sediments; and a No Action Alternative. Under each of the disposal alternatives, two or more disposal sites would be utilized. Under the recommended plan (Alternative B2), the project would utilize three or four disposal sites: the Ocean Section 102 site offshore of the Farallon Islands, Sonoma Baylands in Sonoma County, Galbraith Golf Course in Alameda County, and, if it were required, sediment drying at the Ninth Avenue Marine Terminal located on Port property, with ultimate disposal at the landfill. Under this alternative, some 2.9 mcy would be disposed at the ocean, 2.5 mcy would be disposed at Sonoma Baylands, up to 1.2 mcy would be disposed at Galbraith, and a small portion would be disposed at the Port/Landfill site if it were necessary. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Enlargement of the channels would eliminate tidal delays for 75 percent of all container vessels projected to be in service by 1996. As a result, waterborne transportation costs associated with the port would decline significantly. Widening of the channel would reduce the risk of navigational accidents. Commercial shipping through the harbor would increase. Under the preferred alternative for disposal, wetlands restoration would be included, resulting in a substantial increase in wetlands of national importance. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Deeper channels would trap more sediment, increasing the cost of maintenance. Widening of the channels would subject undisturbed benthic habitat to periodic disturbance. Dredging activities would create turbidity, temporarily lowering ambient water quality and possibly disturbing slightly the foraging habits of a nearby colony of the California least tern, an endangered species. Dredging and transport equipment would contribute to the degradation of air quality in the region. The Galbraith disposal site would lose up to 3.7 acres of seasonal freshwater marsh and some tidal wetlands; in addition, groundwater quality would decline as a result of the lateral migration of existing leachate fluids containing petroleum products. The Sonoma Baylands would lose 56.3 acres of seasonal freshwater and brackish wetlands, and sensitive bird species nesting in the salt marsh along San Pablo Bay would be disturbed.

AN - 36394979; 4632 AB - PURPOSE: The restoration of historic hydrological conditions and maintenance of flood control measures are proposed for the Canal 111 (C-111) basin in southeastern Dade County, Florida. The project is part of the comprehensive Central and Southern Florida Flood Control Project; the C-111 project, which is adjacent to the eastern boundary of Everglades National Park (ENP), has been part of the regional flood control system since it was authorized in 1962. The ecosystem in Taylor Slough and the eastern panhandle of the ENP, areas that were adversely affected by drainage activities associated with the flood control project in the C-111 basin, would be restored. Eleven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under all of the action alternatives, water deliveries to the ENP would be made into the C-111 basin only during drought conditions when canal levels drop 1.5 feet below the optimum levels. Restoring water flows to Taylor Slough would require maintenance of normal day-to-day discharges and water levels in the proper locations, with the proper timing. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 6A), a detention/retention zone would be used for temporary storage of excess flood water before discharge into Taylor Slough. Four pump stations would pump water into the detention/retention zone using lined canals. A battery of culverts and an overflow spillway would be constructed along the western levee of the detention/retention strip. Additional features under the preferred plan would include the construction or modification of nine canals, the construction of two tieback levees and five pump stations, replacement of the existing bridge over Taylor Slough within the ENP, and the acquisition of over 11,866 acres of land, including Frog Pond and Rocky Glades. The goal under the preferred alternative would be to provide a five- to seven-month hydroperiod when water would cover the land surface to depths ranging from 2 to 20 inches and seldom drop as much as 29 to 30 inches below ground surface. The estimated cost is $121.4 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Implementation under the preferred alternative would help to restore natural historic water levels and healthy marsh conditions along the ENP boundary, leading to increased overland sheet flows to the lower portions of Taylor Slough. About 397 square miles of Everglades habitat would be provided with longer hydroperiods at beneficial depths, and a 100 percent improvement over base conditions would be produced. The newly acquired lands would be taken out of agricultural production, thereby reducing the runoff of agricultural chemicals into the waters of ENP. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Four residences would be displaced under the preferred alternative. Tree islands or oak hammocks in the area could contain archaeological resources that would be damaged by changes in water levels.

Preparation date: June 21, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NAVIGATION STUDY FOR FORT PIERCE HARBOR, SAINT LUCIE COUNTY, FLORIDA (GENERAL REEVALUATION REPORT AND SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF JUNE 1986). AN - 15225433; 4631 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of the existing federal project at Fort Pierce Harbor in Florida is proposed. The city of Fort 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 Fort 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. A November 1992 draft supplement to the final EIS evaluated 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. This revised draft supplement considers some additional changes to the modified proposal in order to reduce environmental impacts. Under this revised 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, 450-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 original proposal has been realigned so that it would minimize adverse impacts by trimming the turning basin to the south and deleting corner wideners, and by centering the entrance channel on the existing channel and shifting the transition zone seaward. Dredged material would be placed in an existing borrow hole in the Indian River to raise the bathymetry to natural depths. Some 1.1 million cubic yards (cy) of material would be dredged under the original proposal and 815,000 cy under the revised proposal. Approximately 319,000 cy of material would be disposed in the ocean and 217,000 cy in the Causeway Island borrow hole under the revised proposal, in contrast to 992,000 cy intended for ocean disposal under the original proposal. 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. Under the revised proposal, only one acre of rock/ledge habitat would be altered; while under the original proposal, some 11.7 acres would be altered. 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. Dredged sediments could bury nearby biological communities; toxic contaminants present in the sediments could enter the food chain and become concentrated in large predators. Some phases of the operation could also adversely affect resident populations of manatees and sea turtles. In addition, some 13.3 acres of rocky channel-edge habitat and 12.7 acres of productive shallow-water habitat for invertebrates, crustaceans, and fish would be lost.

Preparation date: June 9, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - MD 140 (WESTMINSTER BYPASS) FROM HUGHES SHOP ROAD TO REESE ROAD, CARROLL COUNTY, MARYLAND. AN - 36382803; 4599 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of Maryland 140 (MD 140) in Carroll County, Maryland, is proposed. MD 140 is an important east-west roadway running from US 15 near the Pennsylvania state line north of Emittsburg to Baltimore City. It carries considerable interstate traffic between Pennsylvania and the Baltimore-Washington area, and also connects points within Carroll County such as Emittsburg and Taneytown to Westminster, the county seat. The improvements to MD 140 would occur in and around the city of Westminster. MD 140 was built in 1952 as a bypass around Westminster, but because of extensive industrial and commercial developments with direct access to the roadway, it has lost its function as a bypass. With no control of access, it currently functions as a city street with heavy volumes of local traffic mixing with through traffic. Eight alternatives, including a No- Build Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the existing road segment would be approximately 6 miles long, the northern bypass would be 8 to 10 miles long, and the southern bypass would be 10 miles long. Four plans for upgrading and improving the existing highway, two northern bypasses, and one southern bypass are also under consideration. The estimated costs of the project range from $8.8 million to $234.3 million, depending on the alternative selected. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The improvements would address the capacity and safety concerns in and around Westminster. They would reduce traffic congestion and the number of accidents on a heavily traveled portion of MD 140. The number of fatal accidents within the project area exceeds the statewide average for highways of that type. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements under the proposed action would displace up to 35 residences and 13 businesses. The bypass routes would displace up to 12.2 acres of wetlands and 133 forested acres. Under all of the build alternatives, improvements would require the acquisition of property from sites eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places: up to four properties per alternative would be adversely affected. Under one of the alternatives, some 3.9 acres would be taken from a recreational area attached to a middle school.

AN - 36395029; 4635 AB - PURPOSE: The development of hurricane surge protection for populated areas of the west bank of the Mississippi River, adjacent to New Orleans, Louisiana, is proposed. The project area comprises 36,000 acres, dominated by heavy residential, commercial, and light agricultural development. It is bounded by the Mississippi River to the north and east, by the Harvey Canal and Bayou Barataria on the west, and by Hero Canal and the Plaquemines Parish levee on the south. The Algiers Canal divides the study area into two relatively equal parts. Although some sizable forested tracts remain in the project area, most of this acreage will be developed in the future. Because of the low elevations that prevail in the area, disastrous flooding could occur. Flooding was experienced in 1985 from Hurricane Juan, which was classified as a Category I hurricane. The tentatively selected plan for the area west of the Algiers Canal would involve the construction of a navigable floodgate in the Harvey Canal, about 3,600 feet south of Lapalco Boulevard. A navigation bypass channel would be constructed to temporarily accommodate Harvey Canal traffic during floodgate construction. The bypass channel would later serve as part of the outfall canal for the Cousins pumping station, significantly increasing its capacity. A combination of levees and floodwalls would provide protection on the east side of the Harvey Canal from the floodgate to the Hero pumping station. Under the selected plan for the east side of the Algiers Canal, the existing protection would be raised. From the Algiers Lock, the existing protection would be enlarged along the east side of the Algiers Canal and along the north bank of the Hero Canal. The protection would wrap around the head of the Hero Canal and continue west along the south bank of the canal. A new levee constructed near Oakville would connect the enlarged Hero Canal levee with an existing levee. The total first cost of the project west of the Canal is $99.3 million, and $19.8 million for the project east of the Canal. The benefit-cost ratio is 4.56 to 1 and 1.55 to 1, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the selected plans, the development of hurricane surge protection would maximize flood protection, result in little disruption to Harvey Canal businesses, maintain low costs, and minimize environmental impacts because of their reliance on existing alignments. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the selected plans, development would adversely affect 279 acres of wildlife habitat and 46 acres of wooded swamp as a result of levee and outfall channel construction, temporary stockpile area, and wooded borrow areas. Roughly 92 acres of non-wetland pasture would be destroyed to obtain borrow material. Disturbance of sediments in the Harvey Canal, which is known to contain contaminants, would cause temporary water quality problems in the canals.

AN - 36400711; 4601 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 highway, to be known as TH 610, would be a four-lane, east-west freeway with grade-separated interchanges located approximately one mile apart. 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 segments 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. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final supplement to the final EIS of August 1992. Under the proposed action (the preferred alternative), some transportation system management components, such as high-occupancy-vehicle lanes, two park-and-ride lots, and a third lot that is under consideration, would be included. The estimated construction cost of the project is $123 million; the estimated costs of rights-of-way acquisitions are $30 million. This final supplement to the final EIS is issued in abbreviated format and contains corrections and revision to the draft supplement as well as public comment and agency responses. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the new facility 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: Rights-of-way requirements under the construction would displace 28 residences and three businesses; encroach upon 35 acres of wetlands and 75 acre-feet of floodplain; and result in the loss of 59 acres of prime farmland. Portions of the alignment would traverse developed areas; up to 783 parcels would be out of compliance with federal nighttime noise standards, and up to 230 parcels would be out of compliance with daylight standards. These adverse effects would be lessened considerably if 20-foot-high noise walls were constructed near the adversely affected areas. A historic farmhouse eligible for listing in the national register of historic places would be removed to allow for construction of the Zachary Lane interchange with TH 610. Furthermore, approximately four undeveloped acres of the Elm Creek Park Reserve would be displaced.

Thin-layer disposal of dredged material has been proposed to maintain and restore wetland areas. Transport of this material into wetlands areas is problematic due to the sensitivity of the wetland environment. Hovercraft transport and distribution of dredged material has been proposed as an environmentally acceptable alternative to conventional transport methods. The objective of this study was preliminary evaluation of technical and economic feasibility of the use of hovercraft for dredged material transport and distribution in wetlands. Comparison was made to conventional transport alternatives.

The "hardness" of the particles collected at several test, training and maneuver areas is examined and scaled to known natural materials and commercial abrasives. The geometric diameters of the soil grains that enter and imbed in the fibers are primary factors for understanding the abrasion mechanism. In the case of cordage abrasion, the fraction of soil grains less than 0.2 mm was dominant within the strands and among the fibers. The particles were applied to designated surface grids on relatively large (3 x 3 to 7 x 7 cm) Mohs hardness specimens, glass photographic plates and steel cutting tools. All of the fine particles abraded glass photographic plates, with the exception of a soft, nonmagnetic, black fraction found in Camp Blanding fines. None of the materials scratched corundum, although it was possible to make a few scratches in Topaz with almost all specimens. The general upper limit of hardness was similar to that of quartz, which showed some detectable abrasion by five specimens. Fines from the Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, area easily scratched quartz, and this material is the hardest measured to date. JF - Special Report - Corps of Engineers, U. S.

The grid generator requires no user intervention and can handle multiple component systems. The routine is well suited to dynamic situations experiencing large geometrical change such as in solidification or ground freezing processes. Additionally, the system has the option to output its results in a 2D Groundwater Modeling System format and a 3D extruded prism layer compatible with the GMS interface and the Waterways Experimental Station's 3DFEMFAT finite element code for flow and contaminant transport in saturated and unsaturated soils. A uniform equilateral triangular grid overlays the physical domain. Increased resolution can be specified in areas of interest or in areas undergoing large geometrical change such as occurs during solidification. All elements exterior to the physical domain are eliminated. The elements closest to physical boundaries are adjusted to conform to the physical shape, and a smoothing operator is employed to assimilate these adjustments. Interior boundaries of multiple component systems are retained. This mesh generation strategy virtually eliminates user interaction which reduces the actual time required for solution substantially. The adaptive finite element mesh generator was applied to an illustrative subsurface soil situation. Therein, the multiple levels of resolution are presented as well as the various output formats.

AN - 36408053; 4600 AB - PURPOSE: The reconstruction of TH 14/52 through the city of Rochester, Minnesota, is proposed. The project would extend from Olmstead CSAH 14 (75th Street NW) to TH 63 (Broadway), a distance of approximately 10 miles. The roadway passes through the western portion of the city of Rochester. North of 55th Street NW, the project area is primarily rural. The major changes to the roadway would occur between 41st Street NW and 16th Street SW, which is considered the core area of the project. The project would improve the existing four-lane highway in order to provide two through lanes in each direction and to provide room in the median for future transportation use. The project would also involve upgrading the interchange of TH 14 West and TH 52, the interchange of 19th Street NW and TH 52, the interchange of 2nd Street SW/6th Street SW and TH 14/52, the improvement of several other exit and exit ramps on TH 14/52, and the reconstruction of some of the existing frontage road system. The project would also include facilities to accommodate bicyclist and pedestrian needs in the corridor. Four alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The build alternatives differ from one another by the traffic patterns established along frontage roads. Under Alternative 1, one-way frontage roads would be provided from 41st Street NW to 6th Street SW. Under Alternative 2, two-way frontage roads would be provided from 37th Street NW to 19th Street NW and one-way frontage roads from 19th Street NW to 6th Street SW. Under Alternative 3, two-way frontage roads would be provided between 37th Street NW and 7th Street NW and one-way frontage roads between 2nd Street SW and 6th Street SW. Three optional configurations for the intersection of 19th Street and TH 14 West are also under consideration. Estimated construction costs range from $61.2 million to $80.6 million, depending on the alternative selected. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Replacement of deficient pavement and bridges would improve traffic safety and efficiency along the corridor. The frontage road system, which is confusing to drivers because of the mixture of one-way and two-way frontage roads, and several intersections with capacity deficiencies, would be improved. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements under the proposed action would displace up to 93 residences and 45 businesses. Under the alternative of one-way frontage road with crossings at 26th Street NW and 14th Street NW, some increase in traffic on residential streets would occur.

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 approximately 36 miles southwest of Portland and 13 miles west of Yamhill, in southwest Washington County, Oregon. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action, the existing 72-foot earthfill Trask Dam would be raised by 50 feet, thereby increasing the water storage capacity of Barney Reservoir from 4,000 to 20,000 acre-feet. The dam would be constructed 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 establishing borrow areas, relocating North Fork Trask Road, constructing temporary access roads, establishing temporary and permanent materials stockpiling and storage areas, and developing 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 275 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, leaving some trees for habitat purposes, removing vegetation, and controlled burning activities. Construction of the dam and related facilities would take place over two years. Under the other action alternative, the earthfill core would be replaced with a facing consisting of roller-compacted concrete on the upstream side of the rockfill. The estimated cost of the preferred alternative is $20.8 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The expansion would allow for 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 adversely alter site topography, induce erosion, and result in the loss of 51 acres of wetlands and up to 359 acres of wildlife habitat. This loss of habitat could adversely affect elk, mallard, song sparrows, yellow warblers, and a threatened plant, the Nelson's checkermallow. A historic trail could also be adversely affected by the project.

This request was for assistance in determining the potential benefits of alternative flood control measures in the upper Midwest. In particular, it was asked that the study look at depressional pothole storage, on-stream wetlands, and alternative land management practices for the Boone River basin in northern Iowa. The goal was to evaluate these items effects on flood peaks and flooding in the basin. The results of the study are only representative of the Boone River basin; the level of rigor was not enough to draw specific conclusions. However, the results may be useful as a basis for more thorough work in the future. JF - Project Reports.

AN - 36408511; 4630 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan to restore fish and wildlife habitat in the Anacostia River and its tributaries is proposed. The river basin is a 170-square-mile sub-basin of the Potomac River. The headwaters originate in the piedmont and coastal plain areas of Montgomery and Prince George's counties, Maryland, and the river joins the Potomac River in Washington, District of Columbia. Prior to urbanization, the Anacostia River basin contained extensive tidal and non-tidal freshwater wetlands, but wetlands area has been reduced from roughly 2,600 acres to less than 100 today. Fish population in the river has declined in recent years as a result of poor water quality, inadequately controlled stormwater runoff, channelization, and barriers to fish migration. Under the recommended plan, implementation would provide for the construction of 80 acres of tidal and non-tidal freshwater wetlands, the restoration of five miles of piedmont streams, and the planting of 33 acres of bottomland hardwood forest. Roughly 604 fish and wildlife units would be restored over a 50-year period. These activities would occur within three independent political jurisdictions. Within the District of Columbia, 75 acres of freshwater tidal wetlands would be restored, and six acres in the vicinity of Kingman Lake would be reforested. Within Prince George's County, two acres of wetlands would be constructed, 8,000 feet of stream would be restored, and 16 acres of riparian area would be reforested. Within Montgomery County, three existing stormwater management ponds would be retrofitted, two new stormwater management wetlands would be constructed, and 17,000 feet of stream would be restored. The estimated project costs within each jurisdiction are $9.3 million, $3.3 million, and $6.2 million, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the recommended plan, fish and wildlife habitat for significant resources in the Anacostia River basin would be restored. The environmental restoration would enhance the aesthetic value of the river basin, the commercial value of residential property near the river, and the recreational uses of the river. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction and restoration activities would temporarily increase runoff; some cultural resources would be adversely affected by the Paint Branch stream restoration.

Preparation date: May 18, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - COUNTY OF HENRICO, JAMES RIVER WATER SUPPLY INTAKE, HENRICO COUNTY, VIRGINIA. AN - 36394825; 4639 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a water treatment plant in order to supply drinking water to the residents of Henrico County, Virginia, is proposed. The county currently purchases 90 percent of its drinking water from the city of Richmond under a water supply contract that became effective in July 1985 and continues through June 1995. The remaining 10 percent of the county's water is presently supplied from the county's groundwater system. Although the capacity of the Richmond system is being increased, it is not certain that the plant would be able to meet future peak demand in Henrico County through 2010. Furthermore, the Richmond plant would probably require significant upgrading in order to comply with new federal water quality standards. Under the proposed action, a water treatment plant with a design capacity of 35 million gallons per day (mgd), which would meet the water demands in the western portion of the county through the year 2003, would be constructed; in 2003, the plant would be re-rated to handle 55 mgd to handle the county's water demand through 2010. The plant would draw water from the James River. It would also meet the water supply needs of portions of Goochland and Hanover counties. The plant, which would be located at the intersection of Gaskins and Three Chopt roads in western Henrico County, would be a state-of-the-art facility incorporating preozonation, rapid mixing, flocculation, sedimentation, and granular activated carbon deep-bed filtration. The major components of the project would include a raw water intake screen, a backwash control building, a raw water pumping station, and dual 60-inch intake pipes to convey water from the intake screens to the pumping station. A 15-foot-wide access road would be built along the 2,800-foot pipe alignment. Construction of the intake would require the dredging of surface sediment, as well as the removal of underlying rock, in the James River and in the area between the submerged intake screens and the backwash control building. A water conservation program would also be implemented. The estimated capital costs of the plant are $63.2 million. The plant would be completed by 1998. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the plan, regional water capacity would be increased and system reliability would be improved through reduced reliance on the Richmond plant. The presence of two regional treatment plants on the north side of the James River, with interconnected distribution systems, would allow local water systems served by these plants to mutually support one another in the event of an emergency or natural disaster. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Water withdrawals from the James River, and the presence of the intake, would adversely affect fish habitat. Some wetlands would be disturbed by the construction of the intake structure, pumping station, and other facilities.

AN - 36413624; 4620 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a thoroughbred racing park on approximately 165 acres in Auburn, Washington, is proposed by the Northwest Racing Associates. The facility would replace the former Longacres Park in Renton, Washington, which was purchased by the Boeing Company in 1990 and closed to horse racing in 1992. The applicant would construct a racetrack similar to the Longacres facility, which was built in the 1930s before the enactment of current environmental regulations. The facility would require the deposition of 80,000 cubic yards of fill in 17.1 acres of palustrine emergent wetlands and 0.3 acres of scrub-shrub wetland. It would include a six-level, partially-enclosed, approximately 240,000-square-foot grandstand designed to seat 6,500 people; parking for approximately 5,100 vehicles; a 90-foot-wide, one-mile oval dirt racetrack with provision for a future seven-eighth-mile, 80-foot wide turf /training course inside the main oval; and approximately 1,400 horse stalls, 150 seasonal dormitory rooms for 300 grooms and backstretch personnel, and other accessory structures. Live thoroughbred racing would occur 125 days between April 1 and October 1. The facility would be designed to accommodate 7,500 people on average, and a peak capacity of 17,300; it is expected to open in 1996. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The facility would replace a facility that was just recently closed. It would also stimulate the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Roughly 91.5 acres would be covered with an impervious surface and nearly impervious material; as a result, surface water runoff would increase and the amount of rainwater infiltration would decrease. Downstream drainage systems would flood if they were not properly mitigated. Approximately 85 acres of vegetation would be cleared. In addition, wetlands would be lost and the visual character of the site would be permanently altered. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.).

Preparation date: May 11, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CUMULATIVE IMPACTS OF RECREATIONAL BOATING ON THE FOX RIVER AND CHAIN-OF-LAKES AREA, LAKE AND MCHENRY COUNTIES, ILLINOIS. AN - 15224143; 4633 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan in order to regulate boating activity on the Fox River and Chain o' Lakes system in Lake and McHenry Counties in northern Illinois is proposed. 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. During the scoping process, the following problems were associated with the high levels of boating activity: 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. 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 multiuser dock systems as well as marinas would not be approved for construction 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/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 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 plan would improve public safety while minimizing environmental damage. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Because boating activity would continue at its current level, it would continue to have some adverse impacts on wetlands, fish and wildlife, water quality, shoreline conditions, and other natural resources.

Preparation date: May 11, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SOUTH TONGUE POINT LAND EXCHANGE AND MARINE INDUSTRIAL PARK DEVELOPMENT PROJECT, CLATSOP COUNTY, OREGON. AN - 15224087; 4586 AB - PURPOSE: The conveyance of approximately 130 acres of upland and submerged lands administered by the Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) at South Tongue Point near Astoria, Oregon, to the Oregon Division of State Lands (Division) in exchange for state-owned islands within the Lewis and Clark National Wildlife Refuge administrative boundary is proposed. The General Services Administration would convey the South Tongue Point land to the Division, receive the islands from the Division, and in turn convey the islands to the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS). The Division is proposing to develop a multitenant marine industrial park on the property conveyed to it. Three alternatives, including the No Action Alternative (Alternative C), are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative A), the land exchange would proceed as described above. The existing Corps Astoria Field Station would remain on South Tongue Point. Development of the marine industrial park would proceed in two phases: (1) development of site infrastructure and construction of marine industrial facilities beginning in 1993, with the Marine and Environmental Research and Training Station becoming the first tenant. Four development areas are proposed for the site, including the Corps Astoria Field Station; these areas total about 66 acres, and include natural vegetation areas to be retained and buffer areas. The site would be partially cleared, grubbed, and contoured above the 100-year floodplain elevation to accommodate permanent structures or outdoor storage. Site infrastructure construction would include a new intersection at US 30, with turn lanes and a new access road to the central part of the site; an on-site local service road; a 12-inch-diameter water main extending from the Astoria municipal system; sanitary sewer service; electric, telephone, cable, and natural gas utility distribution lines; street lighting at the new US 30 intersection, the new access road, and the service road; and wetland fill for the access and service roads, and additional fill to create a uniform upland boundary. Barge construction and berthing facilities would be among the water-dependent use facilities developed in the marine industrial park. Manufacturing, storage, distribution, and service facilities would be among the nonwater-dependent use facilities planned for the northwest portion of the park, which would be served by a railroad spur line. The Navy facility site would include a pile-supported berthing pier and associated facilities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Through the conveyance of the state-owned islands, the FWS would be provided with the necessary control and management flexibility to maximize the protection of migratory fish and wildlife and to enhance wildlife habitats within the Lewis and Clark National Wildlife Refuge. The development of the marine industrial park would create real property assets and associated income for the Common School Fund of the state of Oregon, and encourage new industrial employment within the South Tongue Point area, in accordance with state and local plans to initiate economic development projects in Clatsop County. Beneficial impacts to the groundwater quality of the South Tongue Point area would result from the discontinuance of the Corps Astoria Field Station septic field and the connection of the facility to the Astoria municipal sewer system. Development of a domestic water supply, utilities, and transportation infrastructure is also proposed for the site area. Piers at the site would create a beneficial environment for fish. Employment increases would range from about 140 jobs during construction in the first year to a constant of 600 jobs by the project lease-out. A total permanent population increase of approximately 1,250 persons would be expected by the project lease-out. State income tax revenues would be approximately $475,000 per year at the time of the project lease-out; Clatsop County property tax revenues would be about $1.1 million. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction activities at the marine industrial park site would result in temporary increases in suspended sediments, disturbance to aquatic species, and intermittent noise over a period of seven years. Upland vegetation losses would total 62.7 acres, and wetland losses would total 0.57 acres. Bald eagle forage areas would be disturbed on approximately 63 acres of the industrial park area, and on an undetermined amount of land on North Tongue Point should that area undergo increased residential development as a result of increased employment in the region. During operation of the site, adverse impacts to water quality could occur as a result of storm runoff, maintenance dredging, and tenants' accidental spills.

AN - 15220267; 4637 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 38 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. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the selected plan, the existing navigation channel would be widened 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 project costs are $22.4 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: Under the proposed action, the estuarine bottom would be converted to a channel, temporary increases in turbidity would occur, and the shortnose sturgeon, an endangered species, could be adversely affected, as a result of the blasting necessary for rock removal; blasting techniques and timing would be designed to minimize the possibility of adverse impacts to the shortnose sturgeon and to other fishery resources. 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.

Preparation date: May 11, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SR 522, SR 2 TO SR 9, SNOHOMISH COUNTY, WASHINGTON. AN - 36408145; 4611 AB - PURPOSE: The upgrading of State Route (SR) 522 to a four-lane, divided, full-access-control freeway between SR 9 near Woodinville and SR 2 in Monroe, Washington, is proposed. Improvement of this section of SR 522 is needed primarily because of a high incidence of accidents, which is attributed to high traffic volumes, a separate directional split, and limited sight distance for passing. Continued residential and business growth along SR 522 in this still predominantly rural area, and the use of SR 522 as a primary access road from the Seattle area to SR 2, is lowering the level of service on the roadway, while the frequency and severity of accidents are increasing. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under all of the build alternatives, the capacity of SR 522 would be expanded by widening approximately 10.6 miles of the highway to four 12-foot-wide travel lanes, with two ten-foot-wide outside shoulders and two four-foot-wide inside shoulders, plus a 40-foot-wide grass median. Between SR 9 and Paradise Lake Road, the facility would have a 14-foot-wide paved shoulder in the eastbound direction; this shoulder would accommodate slow-moving vehicles. Existing overcrossings at High Bridge Road (Cathcart Road), 164th Street SE, Valley View Road, and SR 2 would be widened. A two-lane, southbound on-ramp would be added west of the junction of SR 522 and the existing SR 2. Under the Snohomish River Bridge options, a second two-lane bridge would be constructed adjacent to the existing SR 522 bridge over the Snohomish River. Under the preferred bridge design option, the new bridge would be constructed on the south side of the existing bridge, would carry eastbound traffic. Under the preferred alternative, a diamond interchange would be constructed at both Paradise Lake Road and Fales Road; these interchanges would replace existing signalized intersections. Paradise Lake Road would cross over SR 522 and the Burlington Northern rail line to the west on bridges and be realigned to connect with Maltby Road and the recently designated SR 524 from the west. Modifications to secondary roads would be made on both the east and west sides of SR 522 to accommodate the new interchange and SR 522 ramp connections. Fales Road would cross over SR 522 on a bridge and be realigned to the east of SR 522 to accommodate the interchange and ramp connections. Secondary roads would be realigned. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under all of the build alternatives, existing hazardous conditions would be remediated and traffic flow would be improved. Commuting times, accidents, and driver stress would be significantly reduced. Air quality would improve from current levels over the long term. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of, and storm runoff from, the new roadway would cause degradation of water quality in nearby creeks and wetlands. Some existing wetland and wildlife habitat areas would be lost as a result of cut-and-fill activities during construction. While some degradation could occur whether or not improvement were implemented, a slower rate of development would allow more time for changes in policies and technology concerned with controlling water quality and the loss of wetlands and habitat. During construction, there would be short-term adverse impacts on bald eagle wintering sites, anadromous fish spawning areas, and the nesting areas of birds and aquatic mammals. Noise during construction and operation of the new roadway would increase significantly over current levels and approach or exceed federal noise abatement criteria in some areas. Construction of the two interchanges would displace nine residences and two businesses, and require the acquisition of roughly 47 additional acres.

Preparation date: May 4, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - REGULATORY PERMITS FOR THE CENTRAL CITY WATER DEVELOPMENT PROJECT, CENTRAL CITY, GILPIN COUNTY, COLORADO. AN - 36393777; 4636 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of the water supply system of Central City, Colorado, is proposed. Water demand has increased dramatically in the area since October 1991 when limited stakes gaming was introduced in Central City, spurring significant commercial growth. The lack of adequate raw water storage and demands on North Clear Creek Basin water have strained the existing water supply and made it necessary to develop additional water supply to meet municipal needs. Central City must compete for water from the Clear Creek basin with other communities in the north Denver area, and the lack of any facility to capture and store water during the spring runoff aggravates the city's problem. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the city's preferred alternative (Alternative I-1), a dam and a 600-acre-foot reservoir on Chase Gulch would be built. The dam site is located in the upper portion of Chase Gulch, approximately two miles upstream from the North Clear Creek confluence and 400 feet downstream from the confluence with New York Gulch. Water storage would occur primarily during spring runoff, and drawdown would occur primarily during winter and early spring when streamflows of the Chase Gulch watershed and Miner's Gulch are normally low. The dam would be constructed with earth and rock fill to provide a reservoir capacity of 600 acre-feet. The dam would be 560 feet wide and 85 feet high, and flood approximately 25 acres. The dam and reservoir would require 10 months to construct. Under several of the construction alternatives, improvements would involve pipeline construction. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the plan, regional water capacity would increase and a system capable of meeting anticipated demand would established. The reservoir would diversify recreational opportunities in the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Water diversion and storage in the reservoir would have long-term depletion effects on streamflow below the dam. Dam construction would stimulate erosion of unvegetated areas, increasing suspended solids in streams. Approximately 24 acres of vegetation would be cleared or inundated, including eight acres of wet meadow habitat. Late-season drawdowns of the reservoir would detract from the scenic value of the area. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.).

Medium- to fine-grained pyroclastic-flow material of approximately 5.6 billion cubic meters was deposited in the upper watershed areas around Mount Pinatubo. Rainfall-runoff has rapidly eroded eruption material, causing lahars that have flooded low-lying areas. Flooding and sedimentation from Mount Pinatubo lahars have displaced tens of thousands of people from their homes, destroyed bridges and crops, and decreased the amount of land available to agriculture in the lower basin. The purpose of this analysis is to assess the future sedimentation hazards due to continuing erosion of the 1991 pyroclastic deposits around Mount Pinatubo. A sediment yield forecast is presented for each basin containing large amounts of pyroclastic material. The areas most likely to experience sediment deposition were also identified. That information is used throughout this report to determine future damages, plan and design sediment control measures, and to assess the potential benefits (economic and physical) for those control measures.

Many of these structures require, or will require, significant repairs to ensure safe and efficient operations. The Repair, Evaluation, Maintenance, and Rehabilitation (REMR) Research Program was created to identify and develop effective and affordable technology for maintaining and extending the service life of existing Corps Civil Works structures. Modern engineering technology is providing procedures for performing condition surveys, consistent and quantitative condition assessment, and data base management Combined with economic analyses, these procedures afford efficient maintenance and repair (M&R) budget planning through evaluation of the current condition and comparison of various M&R alternatives based on life cycle costs. Collectively these procedures are called the REMR Management Systems. By using the REMR Management Systems, many of the subjective elements in the decisionmaking process are removed from M&R planning. Components of the systems address the REMR aspects of the major substructures of lock structures. This User's Manual describes how to use the software associated with the REMR Management Systems. The technical background to the inspection process, condition index rules, and maintenance and repair analysis are provided in the associated technical reports. JF - Technical Report.

AN - 36408947; 4512 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a new four-lane, limited-access, divided highway to the east of the city of Winchester in Frederick County, Virginia, is proposed. The proposed project would complete a circumferential freeway around Winchester by connecting the northern and southern termini of existing Route 37 west of Winchester with an eastern extension of the existing freeway. The proposal is largely a response to recent and significant increases in population. The project area extends from the existing Route 37 interchange with Interstate 81 (I-81) and US 11 south of town to a point approximately one mile north of the existing Route 37 interchange at US 11 north of town. The project corridor is roughly 0.5 miles wide at the southern end to 2.5 miles at the northern end, where alternative alignments are more diverse. The corridor is approximately 14 miles long and encompasses a total area of 35 square miles. Interchanges and connector routes would be built for US Routes 522 and 17/50, State Route 7, and Secondary Route 657. Existing interchanges of the Route 37 western loop at Route 11 and I-81 would be modified and reconfigured. Nine alternatives are considered in this draft EIS, including a No Action Alternative, a Transportation System Management Alternative, a Mass Transit Alternative, and six build alternatives. Under each of the build alternatives, the facility would begin at the southern terminus located at the intersection of existing Route 37 and I-81, then head east crossing the CSX Railroad, Route 11, and I-81. After crossing I-81, the facility would run parallel to the Opequon Creek, then cross Hoge Run before turning north at Route 522. Heading in a northerly direction, it would cross Buffalo Lick Run, go under Route 645, and cross an unnamed tributary before intersecting with Routes 17 and 50. At this point the facility under the build alternatives would branch off and begin to follow diverse paths depending on the alternative chosen before reaching the northern termini. Estimated total costs for the build alternatives range from $191.3 million to $233.2 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the facility would benefit through travel in the region and improve safety and efficiency. It would also provide for improved intermodal linkages to promote economic growth. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the build alternatives, rights-of-way requirements would displace up to 288 residences, 24 businesses, 4.4 acres of wetlands, 156.4 acres of prime farmland, and 158.9 acres of upland forests. Up to 47 archaeological sites with potential historical significance would be adversely affected; 17 streams would be crossed; and 104 residences would experience increased noise levels.

AN - 36394298; 4497 AB - PURPOSE: The reconstruction of a 23-mile portion of the Sterling Highway along the Kenai Peninsula in south-central Alaska is proposed. The project area extends from the Skilak Lake Road intersection to the Sterling Highway's junction with the Seward Highway. The project area is in the vicinity of the community of Cooper Landing and partially within the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge and the Chugach National Forest. Several popular campgrounds, trails, and recreational sites are in the vicinity. The Sterling Highway is a narrow two-lane road with shoulders only one or two feet wide. The highway is often congested during the summer and accident rates along certain segments are higher than expected. Throughout the project area the highway runs parallel to the Kenai River and its tributaries; highway improvements are hampered by the presence of the river or a creek on one side of the road and steep valley walls on the other. Three alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the 3R Alternative (which is essentially the minimum development alternative), the highway would be improved on its existing alignment. The two-lane highway would generally have a surface width of 36 feet, with two 12-foot lanes and two six-foot shoulders; where needed, a 12-foot passing lane with a four-foot shoulder would be provided. Widening the roadway embankment would require cuts or additional fill along the entire length of the project. Eleven retaining binwalls would be constructed to support erosion-prone slopes; the binwalls would be ten feet tall and range from 100 feet to 0.3 miles in length. One low-speed curve at milepost 47.5 would be improved. Under the other build alternative (the Juneau Creek Alternative), the facility would be fully reconstructed to provide an improved two-lane highway with a surface width of 40 feet, including two eight-foot shoulders and passing lanes as needed. Although cuts or additional fill would be required throughout the project area, binwalls would not be necessary because alignment shifts would remove the highway from those slumpage zones and increase embankment height to contain the erodible slopes. Estimated costs for the 3R Alternative and the Juneau Creek Alternative are $29.8 million and $64.4 million, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed improvements would enhance safety conditions and alleviate traffic congestion. The widened shoulders would provide for emergency pulloffs. Under both of the build alternatives, long-term siltation into the adjacent wetlands and river would be minimized, and expenses for slope and ditch maintenance would be substantially reduced. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under both of the build alternatives, the reconstruction would result in a loss of fish and wildlife habitat and some disturbance of archaeological resources. In addition, under the 3R Alternative, the reconstruction would result in the loss or displacement of 5 acres of wetlands, 2.4 acres of right-of-way from Cooper Landing, and one residence in Cooper Landing. Under the Juneau Creek Alternative, the reconstruction would result in the loss of 43 acres of wetlands, and 24 acres of right-of-way from the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge and 183 acres from the Chugach National Forest; this alignment would also cross the Resurrection Pass Trail.

AN - 36400668; 4539 AB - PURPOSE: The dredging and disposal of material from the federal navigation channel and associated berthing areas in Boston Harbor in Massachusetts is proposed. The proposed project would involve deepening three tributary channels (Reserved Channel, Mystic River Channel, and Chelsea Creek Channel) and two areas in the Main Ship Channel to provide sufficient ship maneuvering areas for the deep-drafted vessels that currently transit the area. The Reserved Channel would be deepened to 40 feet mean low water (MLW), and a small, 40-foot-deep turning area would be established at the confluence of the Reserved and Main Ship Channels. Additionally, portions of the existing 35-foot Mystic River and Chelsea Creek channels would be dredged to a depth of 40 feet MLW and 38 feet MLW, respectively. The 35-foot-deep confluence of these two upper harbor tributary channels would also be dredged to depth of 40 feet MLW. Approximately 3.5 million cubic yards (cy) of clay, rockslit, and silty-sand material would be generated from the project, requiring disposal. An additional 600,000 cy of material would be dredged by local interests from berthing areas not included in the project. The project would use mechanical bucket dredging and blasting rock where necessary; the project would be completed in 18 months. The anticipated dredging rate would generate two to four barge trips per day. Five offshore sites are under consideration for the disposal of the dredged material. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Harbor improvements would make vessel passage less dependent on tidal navigation or lightening. They would also enable Boston to accommodate the larger vessels now found in the world fleet. The improvements would help the port maintain its competitive position in the national and world marketplace. The project would also improve water quality by removing and isolating silts in the channels and berths containing contaminants that are continually resuspended during storm and vessel activity. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some benthic organisms and demersal fish would be killed during dredging and blasting. Turbidity would increase in the area of the dredge and at the disposal site.

Preparation date: April 18, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - US HIGHWAY 10, WAUPACA TO FREMONT, WAUPACA COUNTY, WISCONSIN. AN - 36411093; 4516 AB - PURPOSE: The expansion of 15 miles of US 10 from a two-lane to a four-lane facility in southern Waupaca County, Wisconsin, is proposed. The 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. The facility would differ under each of the alternatives in their stipulations for the following: 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 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 constructed 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. Total estimated construction costs are $44.9 million. 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; accidents would be reduced; and the need to convert the facility to freeway standards in the foreseeable future would be precluded. The highway improvement would also result in an increase in local business sales, an increase in spendable personal income, 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 236 acres. Up to 56 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 adverse effects would include wildlife habitat loss, potential erosion and sedimentation during construction, the loss of prime soils, the potential discovery of unknown underground storage tanks, adverse noise impacts to adjacent residences, and adverse impacts to the habitat of two state-listed threatened turtle species.

AN - 36403459; 4496 AB - PURPOSE: The drawdown of the Lower Granite Reservoir located along the Snake River near Almota, Washington, is proposed in order to obtain data on the biological response of anadromous fish to such a drawdown. The purpose of the drawdown is to determine whether increased mean water velocity through the reservoir resulting from a drawdown would increase juvenile salmonid survival and decrease travel time. In addition, data would be collected on the effects of drawdown on upstream passage of adult salmon, resident fish, wildlife, bottom-dwelling organisms, and water quality. These data will supplement data collected under baseline conditions and during a 1992 drawdown test. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS; the action alternatives are differentiated on the basis of the juvenile collection and bypass method to be used at the powerhouse. Under the preferred alternative (Option 3A), a drawdown test would be implemented at the reservoir during the spring migration period (April 10 to June 20) of 1996. The dam would be operated to maximize flows through the powerhouse; a new gatewell tank system would be used to bypass fish entering the powerhouse. No water would be voluntarily spilled for fish. Any untagged juvenile fish would be transported or bypassed back to the river in accordance with current policy. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the project would maintain adult passage, control dissolved gas, and provide for collection of tagged salmonids at Lower Granite. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Increased spill discharge would cause higher than normal levels of dissolved gas, silt, and water temperature. Sediment levels downstream from the dam would increase as would erosion along the riverbank. The drawdown would disturb reproductive efforts of all fish species, destroying eggs and disrupting egg development. Boating activity would be eliminated or severely restricted during drawdown.

AN - 36394655; 4521 AB - PURPOSE: The development of a waterfront park in the Ohio River floodplain in downtown Louisville, Kentucky, is proposed. The proposed site is located along the south bank of the Ohio River between the Clark Memorial Bridge at river mile (rm) 602 and Beargrass Creek at rm 603.7. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed project, the facilities would consist of a 100-acre park and a 50-acre residential and expanded marina; the sites would be developed by the project applicant, the Waterfront Development Corporation. The lands within the proposed park area are either vacant or being used for industrial purposes; the proposed harbor site, which adjoins the proposed park site on the east and extends to Beargrass Creek, currently consists of open green space and a municipal marina. The Waterfront Park would include a public wharf with moorings for commercial riverboats; the Waterfront Development Corporation headquarters building; a four-story restaurant building; a festival plaza with a hard surface for events; the Great Lawn, consisting of 17.5 acres of grass; a harbor for professionally piloted boats; and a 67-acre linear park with trees, meadow lands, and four river inlets. The harbor project would include the expansion of the existing marina for pleasure boats, residential units, a restaurant, a public promenade along the river edge, and a public boat ramp. Under the preferred plan, the existing topography in the project area would be extensively altered by the removal of earth in the Wharf, Great Lawn, and Harbor areas and the use of fill in the Linear Park to create land forms. The plans call for changes to the river edge by the removal of earth to create inlets and a harbor, and the addition of a pile-supported platform to extend the proposed Great Lawn 120 feet from the river edge. The dredging would primarily take place from the land and would move the earth from the shore to the land side. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action of landscaping and inlet construction, the area visually and ecologically would be improved. Wildlife usage and faunal diversity should increase for both aquatic and terrestrial species. The inlets would serve as a refuge for native wildlife and plants and would not be accessible to boats. The construction and operation of the facility would create approximately 380 full-time and part-time jobs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under high water conditions, the strong flow of water beneath the great lawn platform would create potential danger for small boats.

AN - 36399342; 4529 AB - PURPOSE: The continuation of an interagency program to assist law enforcement agencies with drug interdiction efforts in the southwestern border states is proposed. The Joint Task Force-6 (JTF-6) program was established in 1989 under an initiative by the Secretary of Defense, who also directed key commanders within the Armed Services to develop plans outlining their proposed methods of helping to reduce the illegal flow of drugs into the US. Any law enforcement agency (LEA) in the southwest, including the Border Patrol of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, can request assistance from JTF-6. Support can be provided in many forms, including, but not limited to, the analysis and processing of data, the interpretation of aerial photographs, the conduction of ground patrols, the design and installation of fitness/training courses, and the provision of personnel for listening or observation posts. Engineering support includes the repair or construction of border roads and fences; the demolition of tunnels and buildings; the construction of firing ranges, boat ramps, shooting houses, helipads, and communication towers; and the provision of lighting at ports of entry. Policy and coordination for the southwest border team flow from the Office of National Drug Control Policy in Washington, District of Columbia, to the Southwest Border Joint Command Group, which is composed of representatives of the major LEAs in the border states. In fiscal year 1993, some 485 JTF-6 operations were conducted in the southwest. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 3), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative, the program would continue for another five years. Under a modified program alternative, only operational or support services (with no engineering support) would be provided. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The continuation of JTF-6 program would facilitate the LEAs' mission to reduce illegal drug activity in the southwestern states. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Program continuation would adversely affect wildlife populations and vegetative communities within road and fence rights-of-way.

AN - 36403363; 4467 AB - PURPOSE: The delivery of electric power from the U.S. to Canada under terms of the Columbia River Treaty is proposed. The treaty, which was signed in 1961, required three storage dams to be constructed on the Columbia River system in Canada and one in the U.S. near the Canadian border; the purpose of the dams was to help control floods in both countries and enable dams downstream in the U.S. to produce additional power. Under the terms of the treaty, Canada and the U.S. must share the downstream power benefits equally. Canada sold its half of the extra power produced for 30-year periods to a consortium of U.S. utilities. The first 30-year sale will expire in 1998, when the first installment of the Canadian entitlement must be delivered to Canada. The treaty specifies that the entitlement must be delivered at a point near Oliver, British Columbia, unless another site is agreed upon; the Canadian entitlement is estimated to be 1,200 to 1,400 megawatts (mw) capacity. A subsequent interim agreement allows the entitlement to be delivered over existing facilities by 2003. Various options for the delivery of the Canadian entitlement are considered in this draft EIS; most options would require the development of additional capacity by BPA, probably involving the construction of new combustion turbines, in order to meet contract obligations. The base case would involve full delivery at a site near Oliver and the construction of one new single-circuit 500-kilovolt (kv) transmission line, up to 95 miles long on the U.S. side and 22 miles long on the Canadian side. Additional transmission lines would be needed in both countries by the end of the first and second decades of the 21st century. Other action alternatives under consideration would involve partial delivery at Blaine and U.S. purchase of the remainder of the Canadian entitlement; full purchase of the entitlement by Pacific Northwest utilities; full purchase by Pacific Southwest utilities; and partial delivery of the entitlement at Blaine and Selkirk, and purchase of the remainder by Pacific Northwest utilities. Under the No Action Alternative, the Columbia River Treaty would be violated, thereby, causing unacceptable social, political, and legal consequences; therefore, it is not under consideration in this draft EIS. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the base case and the action alternatives, U.S. obligations under the Columbia River Treaty would be fulfilled. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The new transmission lines would displace farmlands, wetlands, and wildlife habitat, and would probably result in rate increases for BPA customers; a double-circuit 500-kv line would cost $1.1 million per mile to construct. Under the proposed base case, the transmission line could increase the collision potential for bald eagles along the Columbia River. LEGAL MANDATES: Columbia River Treaty of 1961.

Preparation date: April 6, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - TELLURIDE SKI AREA PROPOSED EXPANSION PROJECT, SAN MIGUEL COUNTY, COLORADO. AN - 15220740; 4479 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of the management plan for the Telluride Fe Ski Area in the Uncompahgre National Forest in San Miguel County, Colorado, is proposed. The ski area is located directly south of the town of Telluride, Colorado, approximately 330 miles southwest of Denver. Since 1971 it has been operated through a special-use permit issued to the Telluride Company; the ski area encompasses approximately 3,761 acres of national forest land and 326 acres of private land. Under the proposal submitted by the applicant, additional lifts and associated trails would be constructed and additional restaurants would be constructed in order to accommodate an expected increase in demand. The agency preferred alternative (Alternative D) generally resembles the applicant's proposal but minor modifications were made in order to minimize social, physical, and environmental effects. Under the preferred alternative, six new lift pods with associated runs, trails, and gladed areas would be constructed; Lift Number 6 and its trail and run system would be realigned along the upper terminal; four new restaurants would be developed and an existing restaurant would be expanded within the special use permit area; off-season recreational activities would be expanded to provide additional hiking, biking, and horseback riding and continued hang gliding access; and a lodge and series of small cabins would be developed in the Prospect Basin. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, new and improved ski facilities would be provided, the size and diversity of the existing resort would be increased, summer recreational opportunities would be expanded, and amenities of the overall area would be enhanced. The project would generate considerable revenue and stimulate the local economy; the increase in off-season opportunities would help to stabilize the year-round population and incomes. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the development of ski traverses and runs, and other construction activities would adversely affect 665 acres of common vegetation; reduce cover for elk, mule deer, black bear, and mountain lion; and displace 7.6 acres of wetlands. Cleared or graded areas would be susceptible to soil movement, erosion, and geologic instability. The potential for avalanches would increase at some sites.

Preparation date: April 6, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR FLOOD CONTROL FOR THE WISCONSIN RIVER AT PORTAGE, COLUMBIA COUNTY, WISCONSIN (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF DECEMBER 1983). AN - 36394504; 4543 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of flood control measures for the floodplain of the Wisconsin River in Portage, Wisconsin, is proposed. The Wisconsin River is a tributary of the Mississippi River, with the confluence located just south of Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin. The city of Portage is located approximately 40 miles north of Madison; existing flood protection in the city consists of 18 miles of levees that were constructed beginning in 1861 along both sides of the river. Since 1880, the city has experienced 13 high water events lasting up to eight days in duration. The flood control proposal would affect only the portion of the levee system located within the city of Portage. Under the proposal presented in the final EIS of December 1983, flood control measures would include the raising of Summit Street between West Carroll and River Streets; the raising of the levee in Paquette Park between Conant and Edgewater Streets; the placing of a new levee section along the river from the State Highway 33 bridge downriver to near Dunn Street; the replacing of the riverward lock gates of the historic Portage lock structure and constructing a floodwall upriver to MacFarlane Road; the raising of the existing levee from the Portage lock structure to Ontario Street; and the constructing of a new levee parallel to the south side of US Highway 51 and 16 from Ontario Street downriver to the junction of the highway and County Road G. This draft supplement to the final EIS of December 1983 includes a new proposal for the Portage Canal Lock that would exclude the lock from the flood barrier in order to avoid the costs of rehabilitating the lock; instead a levee would be constructed with a culvert crossing the canal in front of the lock. In addition, the modified plan makes some changes in levee design and alignment, and identifies the borrow areas to be used for levee construction. The borrow area would be along the river adjacent to the proposed levee. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the modified plan, the facility would not provide full flood protection for the city of Portage, but would provide protection to elevation 797 at the Portage Lock, with a 99.6 percent chance of passing the 100-year flood and a 98.9 percent chance of passing a 500-year flood. Annual benefits resulting from the project would be worth $1.05 million. Under the modified plan, recreational opportunities would be enhanced by providing a trail on top of the levee and other facilities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the modified plan, approximately 22 acres of wetlands would be adversely affected, which would be much less than under the original proposal. Using the Wisconsin River as a source of levee material would temporarily increase turbidity and suspended solids. Building a levee in front of the Portage Canal would adversely affect this historic site.

This is accomplished by establishing the environment of deposition from stratigraphic information and by assuming the sand body width is the same as the meander belt width. The meander belt width was calculated from sand thickness, once the sand body is encountered. Spacing for additional boring locations is determined from the sand body width and the probability of additional boring(s) intersecting the sand body. Once a sufficient number of borings are available, such as from site boundaries, the sand thickness is estimated for the site by the statistical method of kriging. Kriging gives the errors for the estimates. These errors are used in combination with the spacing determined from the probability of other boring(s) intersecting the sand body to select a new boring location. The additional boring location(s) are selected in areas with the most error at the determined spacing. Conceptual model, Site characterization, Geology, Geostatistics.

The hangar was destroyed as part of base renovation during the buildup to World War II, and its exact location is unknown. The purpose of the investigation is to confirm the exact location of the hangar and to locate any buried artifacts from the Wright Brothers occupation of the site. Ground penetrating radar (GPR), electromagnetic, and magnetic surveys were conducted over a 68- by 100-m area that is approximately centered on the suspected location of the hangar. Localized anomalies as well as areal anomalies are identified in the geophysical data. Rectangular anomalous areas are identified that are generally consisted with the suspected location of the hangar. A 1924 aerial photograph showing the hangar was digitally scanned and georeferenced to the site survey area. While two of the rectangular geophysical anomalous areas are consistent with the hangar location from the aerial photograph location, a rectangular area defined from GPR survey data is immediately adjacent to the aerial photograph location. It is postulated that base engineers may have bulldozed the hangar debris onto an area adjacent to its original location and either burned it there or buried it in a trench. A prioritized exploratory program is proposed for investigating the sources of the geophysical anomalies.

With time the recharge capacities of the wells/trenches progressively decline. Deposition of suspended fines in the recharge water and growth of microorganisms in the aquifer are common causes of this decline. This paper presents an investigation of the relative significance of these two factors under controlled laboratory conditions. Large-scale physical models of recharge trenches were constructed in the laboratory to monitor the decline with time of the recharge capacity under controlled conditions. The physical models consisted of four hydraulically separate cells in which six different experiments were conducted. In three of the experiments microorganisms were added as an inoculant. A nutrient and carbon fine solution was constantly injected into the influent stream entering through the inflow pipe. Both carbon fines and microorganisms caused plugging of the model recharge trenches in the laboratory. However, initially the microbes appeared to have a beneficial effect by hindering the transport of the carbon fines from the gravel pack in the trench. Later the microbes contributed to the plugging of the gravel pack. A significant correlation was determined between the extent of carbon fine deposition and microbial growth. In the experiment using a biodegradable slurry, microbial growth did not affect the recharge capacity of the trench. One laboratory experiment involved the introduction of silt as a source of sediment fines to the model recharge trench. This experiment simulated conditions often found in the field when no carbon fine adsorption system is used and natural surface water is recharged into the aquifer. This research will be useful in understanding the relative importance of factors contributing to the decline of recharge capacity observed in the field.

AN - 36393054; 4540 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. Seven action alternatives are considered in this final EIS. A No Action Alternative is presented for comparison purposes only. It is not acceptable primarily because of its expected significant economic, social, and environmental ramifications of limited dredging of the harbor. Under the preferred alternative, a new stone rubble-mound, diked CDF, designated as Site 10B, to be located just northwest of and adjacent to the Burke Lakefront Airport, would be constructed and used. 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 estimated benefit-to-cost ratio is 1.78. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The development and use of Site 10B would benefit 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 - 36404050; 4528 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of housing for military families at Fort McCoy in Monroe County, Wisconsin, is proposed. Fort McCoy is a 60,000-acre Army installation located in the northern part of the county; its primary mission is to provide training and support for reserve and active Army units assigned to the installation. Over 100,000 troops are trained annually at the fort, and that number is expected to increase as a result of recent base closures and realignments. A segmented housing market analysis prepared in 1989 and updated annually has documented a severe shortage of rental housing in the immediate area around the fort. The short-term requirement is for 60 units of family housing; 374 total units would be required over a 20-year period. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 3), are considered in this draft EIS. Under Alternative 1, some 374 residences would be constructed in an area southwest of the main cantonment, near the west boundary of the installation. The site consists of 262 acres and is bisected from northeast to southwest by the LaCrosse River. The site is presently undeveloped except for a small inactive arsenal building and firing point. Under Alternative 2, some 374 units would be constructed outside the boundaries of the fort; half of the proposed units would be located in the nearby town of Tomah and the other half would be located in the town of Sparta. Under Alternative 3 (the No Action Alternative), military families would continue to seek housing outside the installation, and many families would continue to live in substandard housing. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under Alternatives 1 and 2, the severe shortage of family housing in the Fort McCoy area would be relieved. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Development in the area chosen under Alternative 1 could adversely affect resident threatened or endangered species, potentially significant archaeological sites, and wetlands near the LaCrosse River. Under Alternative 2, local government spending would be increased as utilities and other services were supplied to the new developments. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 102-190.

Preparation date: March 30, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GARY MARINA, LAKE COUNTY, INDIANA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF APRIL 1989). AN - 15223376; 4520 AB - PURPOSE: The development of a marina on Lake Michigan in Gary, Indiana, is proposed. The project, to be sponsored by the city of Gary, would be located between the USX (formerly U.S. Steel) breakwater to the west and Marquette Park to the east. The preferred 220-acre site would lie near lands administered by the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, which encompasses 14,000 noncontiguous acres. The marina development would ultimately contain 1,300 to 1,400 boat slips, which would be built in phases as demand warrants. Supporting marine services would include diesel and gas fuel facilities, retail sales serving boating activities, boat/motor maintenance and service facilities, dry storage provisions, and public use areas. The marina design would also support nonboating recreational activities; both boating and nonboating activities would be supported by parking facilities, rest rooms, bathhouses, and other services. In addition, the site would support development of associated residential and commercial uses. Development of offshore facilities would involve dredging and filling to create a small boat harbor and sites for land-based facilities and construction of a steel-sheet breakwater. The harbor would have an interior depth of 8 to 10 feet, while the marina entrance would have a depth of 12 feet. The moorage system would be either a fixed-pier or floating dock arrangement. A launching ramp and a service island would also be provided. The marina would be accessed via a new road constructed on the existing roadbed of the Indiana Harbor Belt (IHB) Railroad. Five alternative alignments for the access route which would minimize impacts to National Park Service property are considered in this draft supplement to the draft EIS of April 1989. Under the proposed action, the access road would involve about 3,100 linear feet of the IHB, or roughly 9.4 acres. The proposed route would follow the IHB corridor from US 12/20 north and east to the NIPSCO transmission line right-of-way. The roadway would then be routed onto USX property, and continue northeast to the west boundary of the national lakeshore. The access route would then turn north, traveling adjacent to, but outside, the National Park Service boundary for the remainder of its distance to the marine site. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Marina development would meet the regional demand for recreational boating and lakefront facilities for public use in Gary. One site would support the development of additional housing and business uses. A new opening to be made in the USX breakwater would enhance water circulation and provide access to a sheltered sedimentary environment for fish. Under the proposed action, the construction of the access route would destroy 13.1 fewer acres of vegetation than the route considered in the draft EIS. It would also avoid adversely affecting the blue lupine, the host plant for the Karner blue butterfly, an endangered species. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Dredging would result in temporary turbidity and alteration of bottom topography. Some trace metals could be released during construction, but the metals would not be highly soluble. Under the proposed action, the construction of the access route would destroy 4.1 acres of vegetation.

Preparation date: March 30, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - MONTEREY PENINSULA WATER SUPPLY PROJECT, MONTEREY COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36404696; 4535 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a dam and a 24,000-acre-foot (af) reservoir on the Carmel River approximately 19 miles southeast of Monterey in Monterey County, California, is proposed. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative, the project would involve the construction of a roller-compacted concrete dam, 274 feet high measuring 1,600 feet along its crest. The gravity-type structural section would be designed to remain stable against all overturning and sliding forces. The top of the dam would be at an elevation of 1,140 feet, and the spillway crest and normal maximum water surface would be at an elevation of 1,130 feet. 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 spillway would be constructed near the center of the dam's outlet works' capacity to pass safely over the dam. The spillway would consist of a 215-foot wide overflow structure and include a stilling basin at the downstream toe of the dam in order to prevent erosion of the river banks. Migrating fish would be accommodated during both upstream and downstream migration. A trap and truck system would be used to pass upstream migrating adult steelhead trout around the dam. Facilities for upstream migration would consist of a fish weir and ladder between the new dam and a trapping and holding facility, and a specially equipped tank truck for hauling. Downstream migration of spent adults and smolts would be accomplished through the use of a screening facility upstream of the reservoir. Permanent all-weather access roads would be constructed for the project, and two bridges would be constructed across the Carmel River and one across Danish Creek. Estimated capital costs of the project are $87.3 million; annual operation and maintenance cost estimates are $1.3 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide a municipal water supply that would meet both the short-term 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. Adversely 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. Roughly 2.6 acres of wetlands would be inundated or eliminated, and three species of sensitive plants and three populations of sensitive wildlife species would be displaced. The reservoir would inundate or otherwise adversely affect 13 archaeological sites, 5 sites recommended for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, as well as 5 sites culturally important to the Esselen Tribe. Average residential water rates would increase by $7.67 monthly.

AN - 36406477; 6328 AB - PURPOSE: The disposal and reuse of McClellan Air Force Base (AFB) in north-central California, is proposed. McClellan AFB, which comprises 3,000 acres, is located in the Sacramento Valley, bounded on the east by the Sierra Nevada and on the west by the Pacific Coast and Diablo range. The base, which was established in 1936 and is scheduled for closure in the year 2001, consists of the main AFB (2,856 acres), Capehart Housing (217 acres), Sacramento River Dock (2 acres), Camp Kohler (35 acres), the Hospital Annex (26 acres), and Davis Global Communications Site (316 acres). All properties would be available for civilian reuse except for some properties that would be retained for military and Federal agency uses: Camp Kohler, the Hospital Annex, 120 acres of the Davis Site, and 39 acres of Capehart Housing. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, a technology center would be established within the industrial core of McClellan AFB with a private airfield to be operated as part of the industrial infrastructure. By the year 2020, the airfield would support 5,050 takeoffs and landings. The center would include a high-technology industrial park with aircraft maintenance and related industrial operations, office and administrative areas, housing and community support, and warehouse and logistics. A golf course would be built on some of the land occupied by Capehart housing. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In general, the redevelopment would provide for aviation-related, commercial, educational, and recreational use of the land in agreement with the community's reuse plan. By the year 2020 the proposed action would support 16,100 direct jobs and 15,900 secondary jobs, representing a net employment increase of 7,600. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activities would result in short term increases in erosion and water quality impacts; the permanent loss of wetlands, riparian woodlands, and native trees; and the alternation or degradation of the Sacramento Air Depot Historic District.

F-14-4(104) MISSOURI RIVER BRIDGE AT NIOBRARA, KNOX COUNTY, NEBRASKA, AND BON HOMME COUNTY, SOUTH DAKOTA. AN - 15220774; 4505 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a bridge over the Missouri River connecting Highway N-12 in Nebraska and Highway SD-37 in South Dakota is proposed. The proposed bridge would provide a two-lane facility between the Niobrara, Nebraska, area and the Running Water and Springfield areas in South Dakota. Currently there is a 70-mile segment of the Missouri River between Gavins Point Dam near Yankton, South Dakota, and Fort Randall Dam near Pickstown, South Dakota, without a river crossing. Ferry service was discontinued in 1984. The proposed bridge would be a two-lane structure with a 36-foot clear roadway and two-lane approach roadways with six foot shoulders. Four alternatives, including a No Build Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 2), the alignment would start 1.5 miles east of Niobrara, extend north from N-12, and cross the Missouri River and tie into SD-37 north of Running Water. The bridge would cross the downstream portion of the river segment designated as a recreation river and property owned by the Army Corps of Engineers. The overall length of the alignment would be 2.5 miles, including 3,100 feet for the bridge itself. Under Alternative 1, the bridge would cross the river at a point near Verdel, Nebraska; under Alternative 3, it would cross a point near Santee, Nebraska, and Springfield, South Dakota. The estimated cost of the preferred alternative is $15.2 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the structure would provide a convenient river crossing for those living near Niobrara and Running Water. Currently, travelers starting at Niobrara have to travel approximately 45 miles east to get to Yankton, South Dakota, or 60 miles west to the Fort Randall crossing. By the year 2012, an estimated 330 vehicles would use the new crossing each day. The crossing would improve emergency services in the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would displace 13 acres of farmland and 4 acres of wetlands. Construction activity would temporarily disturb wildlife and the local ecology. The new facility would be a visual intrusion in a recognized scenic area. The segment of the river in the study area is part of the Lewis and Clark National Trail; under all three of the build alternatives, the facility would adversely affect one or more historic sites. Under the preferred alternative, the facility would adversely affect a historic ferry landing.

AN - 36403965; 4457 AB - PURPOSE: The disposal and reuse of Loring Air Force Base (AFB) in Aroostock County, Maine, is proposed. Loring AFB, which comprises 9,035 acres, is located 400 miles north of Boston and 5 miles west and south of the Canadian border at New Brunswick. The AFB consists of the 8,317-acre main base as well as nine off-site parcels totaling 718 acres. As a result of recommendations made by the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission, the base is scheduled to be closed in September 1994. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, reuse would be comprehensive and include a mixed-use airport with civilian aviation activities, including general aviation, commercial aviation, maintenance, and air cargo components. These aviation uses would require up 1,894 acres of on-site property. Airfield improvements would include the installation of a precision instrument landing system and approach path on Runway 01/19, security fencing, runway and taxiway guidance signs, an airport beacon, and a weather observation station. Aviation support facilities, to be located west and south of the runway, would include the air traffic control tower, fuel system, fire station, hangars, and air cargo, maintenance, commercial aviation, and general aviation buildings. Additional uses of the property would include 597 acres for industrial development; 131 acres for medical, educational, and child care facilities; 194 acres for office and other commercial uses; 598 acres for residential land uses, 1,717 acres for open space and an urban park, and 3,304 acres for agricultural and forestry development. The 596-acre Madawaska Dam site, located off-site, would be set aside as a natural resource conservation area. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In general, the redevelopment would provide for aviation-related, commercial, educational, and recreational use of the land in agreement with the community's reuse plan. Under the proposed action, reuse activities would increase employment levels by approximately 4,461 direct jobs and 3,339 secondary jobs by the year 2014. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, up to 398 acres of wetlands would be adversely affected on the main base and 1,697 acres of farmland would be converted to nonagricultural use. The quantities of hazardous materials used and wastes generated would be greater than under closure conditions. The responsibility for managing hazardous materials and wastes would shift from a single user to multiple, independent users, which could reduce the area's capability of responding to hazardous materials and waste spills and would increase the regulatory burden. Air pollutant emissions would increase, and surface water runoff would result from 572 acres of ground disturbance. The number of people living in areas exposed to surface traffic noise levels of 65 decibels or greater would increase by 749. Development activities could adversely affect historic properties that are potentially eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.

Preparation date: March 18, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - MANKATO SOUTH ROUTE (BLUE EARTH CSAH 90), BLUE EARTH COUNTY, MINNESOTA. AN - 36394341; 4501 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a two-lane roadway for approximately 11 miles from Trunk Highway (TH) 169/160 west of Mankato to TH 83 southeast of Mankato in southern Minnesota is proposed. 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 future demands. The preferred alternative (the Purple/Blue Hybrid Alternative) considered in this final EIS is a hybrid of two of the three corridor alternatives that were considered in the draft EIS. This corridor would follow the Purple Corridor from TH 169 to just west of County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 16, where it would follow the Blue Corridor to the eastern end of the project area at TH 83. It would begin at TH 169 approximately one-quarter mile east of its junction with County Road 117, continuing east for one mile then curving southeast following a natural ravine toward the Blue Earth River intersecting with TWP 190. It would continue east and southeast intersecting with CSAH 16, CSAH 8, and TH 22 crossing the Le Sueur River and intersecting with CSAH 41. It would then continue easterly along CASH 41 to the end of the proposed South Route at TH 83. The roadway initially would be constructed as a two-lane rural highway with ten-foot shoulders, eventually accommodating the four-lane roadway cross-section between TH 169 and TH 22. A separate ten-foot paved trail would also be constructed within the roadway right-of-way. The total estimated costs under the preferred alternative are approximately $15.5 million; although anticipated modifications to the alignment and grade of the roadway during the final design process could change the costs of the project. 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: Under the proposed action, rights-of-way requirements would displace five residences. Approximately 322 acres of farmland would be converted directly or indirectly to roadway use, and 2.5 acres of wetland would be adversely affected. Construction of piers in the Blue Earth River channel would be required resulting in temporary construction impacts as well as permanent changes to the river channel. The Le Sueur River crossing would involve 7.88 acres of fill (0.3 acres within the floodplain). Approximately 3.81 acres of wooded area within the floodplain would be adversely affected. For the proposed underpass for the TH 160 interchange, acquisition of 3.25 acres of Minneopa State Park would be required. Noise levels along the roadway would increase substantially and exceed state noise standards, 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 studies identified 22 archaeological sites in the project area; eight of the archaeological sites would be adversely affected.

Preparation date: March 16, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SNOWMASS SKI AREA, ASPEN RANGER DISTRICT, WHITE RIVER NATIONAL FOREST, PITKIN COUNTY, COLORADO. AN - 36406501; 4477 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of the management plan for the Snowmass Ski Area in the White River National Forest in Pitkin County, Colorado, is proposed. The ski area is operated through a special-use permit issued to the Aspen Skiing Company; the permit area encompasses approximately 5,400 acres. Under the revised management plan proposed by the applicant, existing snowmaking equipment, lifts, trails, and other facilities would be upgraded within the currently developed portion of the permit area (Baldy Mountain). In addition, the upper portion of Burnt Mountain would be developed as a ski area, and a second access/egress portal at the base of the mountain would be added in the future East Village area. A two-stage gondola to carry passengers from the Base Village area to the summit of the mountain, and a 400-vehicle parking lot at the base of the lift, would be constructed. Summer recreational uses would be expanded throughout the permit area, and up to 13 miles of new biking and hiking trails would be constructed. Mountain capacity would be increased by 2,500 skiers-at-one-time. Related to but independent of this proposal is the proposed development by the Snowmass Land Company of the East Village area on private land at the base of Burnt Mountain. Certain facilities associated with that development would be located on national forest land. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), the applicant's proposed action (Alternative G), and the Forest Service's (FS's) preferred alternative (Alternative F), are considered in this final EIS. Alternative F generally resembles the applicant's proposal except that under it, the construction of lifts to Burnt Mountain would be provided in two phases. The FS's preferred alternative would not include a new gondola from the mountain's base as in all of the other action alternatives. A detachable double chair would be constructed immediately in the western pod, while a second double chair could be constructed in five years or more in the eastern pod after further environmental studies were completed. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the resort would be able to keep pace with expected recreational demand and to remain competitive within its market area. Under the applicant's proposal, summer recreational activities would be expanded, and ski area use, particularly in the summer, would increase substantially. Considerable revenue would be generated and the local economy would be stimulated. Some 395 construction-related jobs, 176 on-site jobs, and 851 off-site jobs would be created, thereby promoting a more stable local work force. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The development of ski traverses and runs, and other construction activities, would require the clearing of 450 acres of commercial timber under the applicant's proposal. Some areas would require grading and excavation; as a result of this activity and the removal of vegetation, these areas would be susceptible to soil movement, erosion, and geologic instability. Elk and other animals in the project area would lose habitat. Overall biological diversity within the project area and the landscape assessment area would be further reduced by additional development. Up to 9.1 acres of wetlands would be displaced and would therefore require mitigation. The visual character of the landscape would become even more dominated by man-made lines and objects. Water withdrawals from Snowmass Creek for domestic and snowmaking uses could adversely affect the stream ecosystem. Diversion for snowmaking could reduce brook trout spawning habitat by over 25 percent, which is far above the significant threshold used by the Bureau of Reclamation. Noise levels would increase significantly both on-site and off-site during construction and after completion of the project.

Preparation date: March 10, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - OAKLAND HARBOR DEEP-DRAFT NAVIGATION IMPROVEMENTS, ALAMEDA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT II TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENTS OF SEPTEMBER 1979 AND NOVEMBER 1984). AN - 36399427; 4534 AB - PURPOSE: The deepening and widening of the existing Oakland Harbor channels in the Port of Oakland in Alameda County, California, is proposed. The port lies on the east side of San Francisco Bay, near the western terminus of major rail and highway networks. Approximately 3.4 miles of the outer harbor and 4.0 miles of the inner harbor would be dredged. As originally authorized, disposal of the dredged material was planned for a site near Alcatraz Island, but those plans were abandoned in response to public concern about the impact on Bay resources, the mounding of previously disposed materials at Alcatraz, and recent regulations limiting the volume of materials that could be disposed near Alcatraz. This second draft supplement to the final EISs of September 1979 and November 1984 considers 12 alternative plans for disposing of roughly 5.8 million cubic yards (mcy) of dredged channel bottom, berth bottom, and bank sediments; a No Action Alternative is also considered. Each disposal alternative is comprised of two or more disposal sites. Under the recommended plan (Alternative B2), three or four disposal sites would be included: the ocean section 102 site offshore of the Farallon Islands, Sonoma Baylands in Sonoma County, Galbraith Golf Course in Alameda County, and, if required, sediment drying at the Ninth Avenue Marine Terminal located on Port property, with ultimate disposal at the landfill. Some 1.8 mcy would be disposed at the ocean, 2.6 mcy would be disposed at Sonoma Baylands, up to 1.3 mcy would be disposed at Galbraith, and up to 100,000 cy would be disposed at the Port/Landfill site. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Enlargement of the channels would eliminate tidal delays for 75 percent of all container vessels projected to be in service by 1996. As a result, waterborne transportation costs associated with the port would decline significantly. Widening of the channel would reduce the risk of navigational accidents. Commercial shipping through the harbor would increase. Under the recommended plan, wetland restoration would be maximized. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Deeper channels would trap more sediment, increasing the cost of maintenance. Widening of the channels would subject undisturbed benthic habitat to periodic disturbance. Dredging activities would create turbidity, temporarily lowering ambient water quality and possibly disturbing slightly the foraging habits of a nearby colony of the California least tern, an endangered species. Dredging and transport equipment would contribute to the degradation of air quality in the region. The proposed Galbraith disposal site would lose up to 5.2 acres of seasonal freshwater marsh and up to 1 acre of tidal wetland; in addition, groundwater quality would decline as a result of the lateral migration of existing leachate fluids containing petroleum products. The Sonoma Baylands would lose 56.3 acres of seasonal freshwater and brackish wetlands, and sensitive bird species nesting in the salt marsh along San Pablo Bay would be disturbed.

Preparation date: March 10, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - US 45 TO US 41 (US 10), WINNEBAGO COUNTY, WISCONSIN. AN - 36410081; 4515 AB - PURPOSE: The relocation of US 10 in Winnebago County in northeastern Wisconsin is proposed. US 10 is a major arterial highway that serves the Fox River Valley, including the communities of Appleton, Menasha, Grand Chute, and Greenville. The project area begins at the intersection of the current US 10 and US 45 at Greenville and extends to the intersection of the current US 10 and State Highway (SH) 441 in Appleton, a length of 8.6 miles. This segment of highway has 18 traffic signal installations and roadway widths ranging from 24 to 64 feet. Traffic along the current US 10 is projected to increase 49 to 66 percent by the year 2015, which would result in a volume of 10,700 to 47,850 vehicles per day, depending on which section of the highway is being analyzed. The present volume is a mix of large-truck through-traffic and local traffic, and accident rates along certain sections of the highway are currently well in excess of statewide averages. The project would remove the US 10 designation from a part of the Appleton street system and place this designation onto US 45 in the project area. Nine alternatives were initially considered, but only one relocation alternative (Alternative 3) was brought forward for serious consideration, and it became the preferred alternative. From the intersection of the current US 10 and US 45, this route would proceed southerly approximately 3.8 miles along the current US 45 to a point approximately 0.25 miles north of Fairview Road. From this point, it would proceed easterly on a new alignment approximately 3.3 miles to the intersection of American Drive and the current SH 441. The route would proceed along the current SH 441 to its intersection with the current US 10 in Appleton. The new highway would consist of two 12-foot-wide driving lanes in each direction, separated by a 60-foot-wide median. Local roads would be grade separated. The Little Lake Butte des Morts bridge would be widened from four to six lanes to meet traffic needs. The existing US 41/SH 441 interchange would be improved to facilitate freeway-to-freeway traffic movements. Two new interchanges would be constructed, one at US 45 and the other at the proposed West Side Arterial. The estimated total cost of project is $42.6 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed relocation of US 10, through truck traffic would be diverted away from local communities and congested intersections, reducing the accident rate and improving overall traffic safety. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 1.3 acres of wetlands would be converted, and a total of 114 acres would be displaced, including 104 acres of farmland, 6 residences, and 3 businesses. The corridor would sever two farms, although access from abutting roads would be available. In total, eight farms would be affected adversely. The highway structures would encroach onto the 100-year floodplain of Little Lake Butte des Morts, but would not adversely affect water surface elevation or the available flood storage area.

Preparation date: March 8, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FEASIBILITY REPORT ON NAVIGATION IMPROVEMENTS, COOS BAY, OREGON. AN - 36394599; 4541 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. It is 200 miles south of the Columbia River mouth and 445 miles north of San Francisco Bay. 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-feet-deep inner channel extending 15 miles to the city of Coos Bay. The project provides access to docks and terminals at the Oregon International Port of Coos Bay. Six alternatives related to channel modification, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 2), the channel would be deepened by 2 feet to 47 feet at the entrance to 37 feet at river mile (rm) 15 and widen the turning basin at rm 12 by 100 feet. More specifically, the facility would include 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 (sites E, F, and H); all material dredged from the channel is considered suitable for in-water disposal. The total estimated annual costs of the proposal are $1.3 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Deepening the existing entrance and inner channel would help 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 $2.0 million. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, present topography would be altered along the 15-mile length of the navigation channel and at the ocean disposal sites; benthic organisms would be removed or buried at these sites; fish and wildlife habitat and food sources would be disturbed through dredging, mechanical rock removal, and disposal; estuarine turbidity and salinity would be temporarily increased; estuarine circulation and sedimentation patterns would be slightly changed; and maintenance dredging requirements would be slightly increased.

These and other earth resources are not only individually irreplacable, they also play a key role in the distribution and character of biological and cultural resources. Stewardship of earth resources requires the use of state-of-the-art methods and concepts for inventory, evaluation, and management. This document serves as a guide and source book for resource managers at DoD installations to understand the scope of earth resources stewardship at-their installation. Initially, the document provides an overview of the nature, occurrence, and significance of earth resources. Methods of acquiring earth resources data and inventorying and stewardship of lithospheric, hydrospheric, and atmospheric resources are then presented. The value and use of earth resources information in the management of cultural and biological resources are discussed in terms of earth resources information required for various management issues. One of the major themes of the report is the role of earth resources information in developing and executing integrated natural and cultural resources stewardship programs.

AN - 36411349; 4443 AB - PURPOSE: The restoration of historic hydrological conditions and maintenance of flood control measures for the Canal 111 (C-111) basin in southeastern Dade County, Florida, are proposed. The project is part of the comprehensive Central and Southern Florida Flood Control Project; the C-111 project, which is adjacent to the eastern boundary of Everglades National Park (ENP), has been part of the regional flood control system since it was authorized in 1962. The specific purpose of this draft EIS is to consider alternative plans for restoring the ecosystem in Taylor Slough and the eastern panhandle of the ENP, areas that were adversely affected by drainage activities associated with the flood control project in the C-111 basin. Eleven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under all of the action alternatives, water deliveries to the ENP would be made into the C-111 basin only during drought conditions when canal levels drop 1.5 feet below the optimum levels. Restoring water flows to Taylor Slough would require maintenance of normal day-to-day discharges and water levels in the proper locations, with the proper timing. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 6A), a detention/retention zone would be used for temporary storage of excess flood water before discharge into Taylor Slough. Four pump stations would pump water into the detention/retention zone using lined canals. A battery of culverts and an overflow spillway would be constructed along the western levee of the detention/retention strip. Additional features of the preferred plan include the construction or modification of ten canals, the construction of a L-31 Tieback levee and a S-332 Tieback levee, the construction of five pump stations, the replacement of the existing bridge over Taylor Slough within the ENP, and the acquisition of over 11,188 acres of land, including Frog Pond and Rocky Glades. The goal of the preferred plan would be to provide a five- to seven-month hydroperiod when water would cover the land surface to depths ranging from 2 to 20 inches and would seldom drop as much as 29 to 30 inches below ground surface. The estimated cost of the proposal is $122 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Implementation of the preferred alternative would help to restore natural historic water levels and healthy marsh conditions along the ENP boundary, leading to increased overland sheet flows to the lower portions of Taylor Slough. About 397 square miles of Everglades habitat would be provided with longer hydroperiods at beneficial depths, and a 100 percent improvement over base conditions would be produced. The newly acquired lands would be taken out of agricultural production, thereby reducing the runoff of agricultural chemicals into the waters of ENP. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Five residences would be displaced under the preferred alternative. Tree islands or oak hammocks in the area could contain archaeological resources that would be damaged by changes in water levels.

MARIE, CHIPPEWA COUNTY, MICHIGAN: OPENING OPERATION OF THE LOCK FACILITIES ON 25 MARCH (FINAL SUPPLEMENT III TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF JULY 1977). AN - 36409135; 4444 AB - PURPOSE: The extension of the period of operation of the locks at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, is proposed in order 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 final 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 final supplement: 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 and open the locks on March 25. 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 - 36406131; 4395 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a 1,150-megawatt (MW) power station on a 4,348-acre site in Polk County, Florida, is proposed by Tampa Electric Company, an investor-owned utility that serves more than 467,000 customers in west-central Florida. The proposed site is located approximately 17 miles south of the city of Lakeland, 11 miles south of Mulberry, and 13 miles southwest of Bartow, on land that has been previously disturbed by mining activities. At full build-out, the proposed power station would consist of two combined-cycle generating units, six combustion turbine generating units, and one integrated gasification combined-cycle (IGCC) generating unit. The IGCC would be capable of firing either coal-derived gas known as syngas produced by an on-site coal gasification facility or low-sulfur fuel oil and operated in a combined-cycle mode. The project would include on-site material handling and storage facilities for fuel oil, coal, and the byproducts of coal gasification and syngas treatment (slag and sulfuric acid); water supply and wastewater treatment systems; solid waste disposal areas; a cooling reservoir; a substation; and storm water management facilities. It would also include on- site and off-site transmission lines, rail spur, and, ultimately, a natural gas pipeline. Plant facilities would occupy 150 acres, or less than 4 percent of the site, and other occupied areas would occupy roughly 158 acres; the cooling reservoir would occupy roughly 860 acres; and remainder of the site would be set aside for pastureland, forest, and brushland. Water to supply the reservoir would be supplied by pumping groundwater from the Floridan aquifer at an average annual rate of five million gallons per day. Surface water discharges from the reservoir would be routed to the reclaimed lake on the eastern edge of the site and then off-site to the Little Payne Creek system. The on- site industrial wastewater treatment system would be designed to collect and treat wastewater, storm water runoff, and washdown from the materials storage areas. Construction would take place in three phases. The initial phase would involve the construction of a nominal net 260-MW IGCC unit, which would be known as Polk Unit 1. Polk Unit 1 is being considered by the Department of Energy (DOE) for $120 million of cost-shared financial assistance under the DOE Clean Coal Technology Demonstration Program. Full build-out is scheduled for 2010. The project would require an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit for a new source. Under the EPA's preferred alternative, an NPDES permit would be issues with conditions, pending the successful completion of the EIS process. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed power station would provide the applicant with the resources to meet the projected demand for electric power within its service area. The project would also benefit the local economy; at full build-out, the plant would employ 210 persons. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction of the reservoir would result in the loss of 253 acres of jurisdictional wetlands. The clearing of vegetation from the power block area and the transmission line corridor would displace resident wildlife. Groundwater seepage discharges from the reservoir would not satisfy state water quality standards regarding color and the presence of antimony and iron.

US 93 is a two-lane north-south principal arterial that extends along the western portion of the state, linking the city of Missoula, the region's largest city, and the Kalispell, Whitefish, and Columbia Falls triangle. In addition, the segment of highway proposed for improvement serves tourist traffic destined for Glacier National Park and the Flathead Lake area. During the peak tourist season the highway operates at a level of service D or E in many locations. Much of the highway is designated as a no-passing zone, and because a high percentage of trucks use the highway, traffic tie-ups are not uncommon. The accident rate on US 93 within the project area is higher than the statewide rate for similar highways. Three location alternatives are considered in this draft EIS. For the rural parts of the corridor, covering Somers to Kalispell, Kalispell to Whitefish, and west of Whitefish, four alternatives are under consideration: Alternative A (MEDIA), Alternative A (TURN-LANE), Alternative A (COMBO), and a No-Build Alternative. Within the Kalispell metropolitan area, a bypass alternative is considered along with two basic designs called Alternative B (MEDIAN) and Alternative B (TURN LANE), and the No-Build Alternative. In Kalispell, the bypass would be implemented along with improvements to US 93 through town. In the Whitefish area, six alternatives are considered. Under Alternative A (FOUR LANE), the capacity would be increased in the same location as the existing US 93. Traffic would be split onto a one-way pair system on Second Street/Spokane Street and Second Street/Baker Street under four alternatives called Alternative C (COUPLET-1), Alternative C (COUPLET-2), Alternative C (COUPLET-3) and Alternative C (COUPLET-4). Under the sixth alternative, Alternative C (OFF-SET), traffic would split between Baker and Spokane streets, but two-directional traffic would be allowed. Under the A alternatives, US 93 would be reconstructed along its existing corridor. The roadway would be widened to meet capacity requirements of two travel lanes in each direction with provisions for left turns. Eight- to ten-foot shoulders would be added. Minor adjustments would be made for improving horizontal curves or flattening vertical grades. Pedestrian and bicycle facilities would be enhanced. Numerous intersections would be upgraded and improved. A four-lane bypass on new location around the western edge of Kalispell would be built. Improvements would be made to Spokane Street, Second Street, and Baker Avenue in Whitefish. Under the B alternatives, the bypass would be built around Kalispell, and improvements to US 93 would be provided through town. Under the C alternatives, traffic patterns in the Whitefish area would be reconfigured. The project would probably be built in phases and completed by 2001. POSITIVE IMPACTS: With improvements to the facility, congestion would be reduced. The improvement would provide for planned growth and economic development, improved safety, improved intermodal facility connections, and enhanced scenic values. The highway expansion proposed under location Alternative A would generally fit within the right-of-way already purchased. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would displace up to nine residences or businesses, fill 6.27 acres of wetlands and portions of floodplains along 12 streams, and adversely affect up to 87 acres of farmland. Two historic properties would be adversely affected. Several of the subalternatives would convert less than one acre of the Ashley Creek Recreation Trail to transportation uses.

Preparation date: February 17, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - ADDITIONAL TEST RANGE FACILITIES AND SUPPORT SERVICES AT U.S. ARMY KWAJALEIN ATOLL IN SUPPORT OF THE MISSILE DEFENSE ACT OF 1991, MARSHALL ISLANDS (FINAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF OCTOBER 1989). AN - 15221873; 4390 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 final supplement to the final EIS considers two proposed actions. It outlines a proposed action in support of the Missile Defense Act of 1991, plus another proposed action, both requiring environmental analysis. Under the first proposed action, which would support the Missile Defense Act, actions would include the 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 this final 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. Under the second proposed action, locally developed environmental guidelines and procedures appropriate to the unique environment at Kwajalein Atoll would be adopted in order to replace the U.S.-based environmental statutes and regulations currently in place. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed changes in missile-testing activities would respond 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 adversely affect 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.

Preparation date: February 17, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - UPPER YAZOO PROJECTS, FLOOD CONTROL, MISSISSIPPI RIVER AND TRIBUTARIES, YAZOO BASIN, MISSISSIPPI (FINAL SUPPLEMENT NUMBER 1 TO THE REVISED FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF DECEMBER 1975). AN - 36410225; 4445 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of flood control measures within the Upper Yazoo Basin located on the eastern side of the Mississippi Delta along the main stem of the Yazoo-Tallahatchie-Coldwater River system from Yazoo City to Darling, Mississippi, is proposed. The study area encompasses 2,300 square miles of drainage, including portions of Carroll, Coahoma, Grenada, Leflore, Holmes, Humphreys, Panola, Quitman, Sunflower, Tallahatchie, Tunica, and Yazoo counties. Flood problems in the Upper Yazoo Basin are significant. Damages total more than $18.6 million annually, including $3 million in urban damages. In addition, almost 700,000 acres of agricultural lands are subject to annual inundation. This final supplement to the final EIS of December 1975 identifies the specific flood control measures which would be taken. Eight structural alternatives and a No Action Alternative are under consideration. Under the recommended plan (Alternative 5), approximately 130.3 miles of the Yazoo, Tallahatchie, and Coldwater rivers would undergo channel enlargement to a maximum bottom width of 150 feet transitioning to 75 feet at the upper end of the work. Approximately 26 million cubic yards of material would be excavated from the channel bottom and one bank only by hydraulic dredge, providing an average conveyance increase of 50 percent over current channel capacity. Construction would include the development of 49 water control structures, 52 confined disposal facilities, grade control structures on Tillatoba Creek and Panola-Quitman Floodway, two weirs, and approximately five miles of bank stabilization. Twelve water control structures and 48 confined disposal facilities would be modified and operated for waterfowl in order to reduce adverse impacts. 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 plan, including mitigation, is $190.2 million, and the benefit-cost ratio is 1.2. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed project, the risks of costly flooding would be substantially reduced on both urban and agricultural lands. The flood control measures identified in this final supplement would be economically feasible and environmentally sustainable. Features would be incorporated which would reduce maintenance requirements and sediment inflow while concurrently providing improved habitat for fish and wildlife. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed project, rights-of-way requirements would displace approximately 656 acres of wooded wetlands and 1,803 acres of farmed wetlands. These losses would be in addition to the 4,677 acres of wetlands lost since construction commenced in 1976 and the 16,541 acres of wetlands that would experience adverse hydrological impacts. In addition, 3,588 acres of prime farmland would be displaced under the recommended plan. Some 5,333 acres of bottomland hardwood would be converted, and 5,745 acres of bottomland would experience adverse hydrologic impacts. Land conversion would adversely affect wildlife dependent on bottomland hardwood habitat and reduce waterfowl foraging habitat and carrying capacity.

Preparation date: February 15, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - STATIONING OF MECHANIZED OR ARMORED COMBAT FORCES AT FORT LEWIS, THURSTON AND PIERCE COUNTIES, WASHINGTON. AN - 36406486; 4394 AB - PURPOSE: The stationing of mechanized or armored combat forces at Fort Lewis, Washington, and its sub-installation, the Yakima Training Center (YTC), is proposed. Fort Lewis is an 86,176-acre military reservation located in Pierce and Thurston counties in western Washington, approximately 35 miles south of Seattle and 7 miles northeast of Olympia. The YTC is a 323,651-acre subinstallation about 7 miles northeast of the city of Yakima on the east side of the Cascade range in Yakima and Kittitas counties in the central portion of the state. The forces proposed for relocation at Fort Lewis would probably come from U.S. bases outside the continental U.S. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (the Two-Brigade Alternative), two heavy-combat brigades with roughly 10,400 additional troops and 1,100 tracked vehicles would be assigned to Fort Lewis and the YTC. Maneuver training at Fort Lewis would be primarily at the platoon level and result in 30,000 additional off-road tracked vehicle miles per year; training at YTC would be primarily at the battalion and brigade levels and result in 89,500 additional vehicle miles per year. The first brigade would arrive in the summer of 1994, and the second brigade would arrive in 1999 after construction to support the brigade's training activities had been completed. Facility requirements at Fort Lewis would include new maintenance facilities, an aviation unit maintenance facility, 200 barrack spaces, and an expansion of an existing washrack. At YTC, new facilities would include an ammunition supply point, an equipment concentration site, a petroleum and lubricant storage facility, an expansion of an existing washrack, a multipurpose training range, and an upgrade of the multipurpose range complex. Under the other action alternative, one brigade would be stationed at Fort Lewis. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, a heavy combat force would be placed in the western U.S. at a location with suitable terrain for training exercises, minimal needs for new construction, accessibility to sealift facilities, and the capability for rapid deployment in response to contingencies in the Pacific region. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, increased dust from off- road training activities involving tracked vehicles would adversely affect air quality. Soil loss and increased erosion caused by greater off-road tracked vehicle miles at YTC would increase suspended solid levels in the Yakima and Columbia rivers during extreme runoff conditions. Training activities would also cause the loss of vegetation and wildlife habitat, increased traffic for off-post roadways and interchanges near Fort Lewis, increased noise levels beyond the installation boundaries, and the disruption of historic sites and lands used by Native Americans for food gathering. The projected population growth would increase the demand for additional classroom space in local school districts.

Preparation date: February 10, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - INTERNATIONAL BOUNDARY AND WATER COMMISSION INTERNATIONAL WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT AND OUTFALL FACILITIES, SAN DIEGO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, AND BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO. AN - 36398693; 4435 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of an international wastewater treatment plant (IWTP) and associated outfall facilities is proposed in order to treat flows from Tijuana into the Tijuana River and its tributaries near the California-Mexico line. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) would make grants to the International Boundary and Water Commission (IBWC) to construct a collection, conveyance, and treatment works in the Tijuana River valley and an ocean outfall in U.S. waters. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative with two Mexican action variations, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 2), a 25-million-gallon-per-day (mgd) secondary wastewater treatment plant would be constructed on an approximately 75-acre site on Dairy Mart Road. The IWTP would collect and treat wastewater flows from the city of Tijuana that are currently flowing into California via the Tijuana River, other renegade wastewater flows entering the United States from north-draining canyons and gullies, and future sewage flows from Tijuana up to a total of 25 mgd. Treatment processes would include primary treatment by mechanically cleaned bar screens, grit removal by aerated vortex grit chambers, primary sedimentation removal by chemically-assisted, covered rectangular clarifiers, biological treatment by activated sludge mixing with fine bubble diffusers in uncovered basins, secondary sedimentation removal by uncovered rectangular clarifiers, and disinfection by chlorination/dechlorination on-site. Odor control would include a two-stage scrubber for the headworks and single- stage demisting for primary sedimentation and sludge processing. The sludge treatment process would include sludge thickening by dissolved air flotation thickeners, sludge stabilization by lime stabilization and pasteurization, and sludge dewatering by belt filter press technique. Following treatment, effluent would be discharged into the Pacific Ocean in the U.S. via a land and ocean outfall conveyance system, a pipeline consisting of two segments: the south bay land outfall and the south bay ocean outfall. The ocean outfall, which would connect to the land outfall, would run underground to a point 18,400 feet offshore and discharge treated effluent at an ocean depth of 93 feet; it would be designed to carry an average outflow of 132 mgd. Sludge generated by the treatment plant would be either processed by sludge processing facilities on-site or transported, in dilute form, back to Mexico for treatment and disposal. The proposed action would be undertaken with the understanding that Mexico would make significant in-country improvements to ensure that there would be no discharges of treated or untreated domestic or industrial wastewater into the Tijuana River that crosses the international boundary. Construction of the ITWP and associated conveyance and outfall pipelines would begin in 1994 and would continue into 1998. Construction costs of the ITWP are estimated at $142 million; construction costs for the ocean outfall are estimated at $124 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the region would benefit ecologically, economically, recreationally, and public health- wise. Treatment of raw sewage currently flowing from Mexico into the San Diego area via the Tijuana River would improve public health and safety in southern California. Quarantines of beaches along the south San Diego shore would be obviated, and severe damage to the Tijuana River National Estuarine Research Reserve would be halted. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the ITWP would displace 5 residences, 14 acres of livestock areas, and farm buildings. Divers swimming near the outfall would be exposed to health risks. The increase in noise levels, and the use of artificial lighting at night during the breeding season, from the construction of the IBWC field office could adversely affect the least Bell's vireo. Noise from construction could also adversely affect the coastal California gnatcatcher.

AN - 15225319; 4393 AB - PURPOSE: The conducting of the joint military exercises (Roving Sands) 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 would be conducted once a year for five years, during the third quarter of the federal fiscal year, and 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 conclude with a one-week redeployment of forces. Equipment would include approximately 300 airplanes and helicopters, 3,000 wheeled vehicles, 60 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 the No Action Alternative. This final 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 test our joint air defense operational capabilities. It 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.

The latter offer marked benefits for a shoreline subject to chronic erosion, particularly when local littoral processes are considered in conjunction with beach fill plans. Socioenvironmental and littoral concerns addressed in project planning and implementation are identified. As designed, the terminal structures can reduce end losses of beach fill without exerting negative influences on the downdrift shoreline.

Monitoring reveals the failure of these efforts to create depositional beaches. The projects were adversely impacted by rapid colonization of marine biota on artificial seaweed fronds. Areas with stabilizers were marked by the updrift deposition and downdrift erosion patterns typical for groin structures. Beaches updrift and within sand web systems had the highest accretion rates, but beaches downdrift experienced erosion.

Another 109 of these erosion control devices were emplaced at an additional site in December 1992. The cones accreted substantial volumes of material along the beach of a barrier island. An average increase in elevation at one site was about 7 inches with a maximum buildup of 3 ft. Accretion rates were less marked at other sites but no additional erosion occurred. The cones survived fringe impacts of Hurricane Andrew, indicating that they can be anchored so as to survive such events.

Six artificial reef modules were constructed of limestone boulders and placed 30-43 m from shore at a depth of 2 m. A shore-detached groin was also erected north of the hardbottom formation to deflect littorally transported sand from the project around the hardbottom and to enhance habitat for biota. These strategies successfully provided suitable mitigation for the hardbottom habitat lost during the 1988 project.

The poor performance of beach nourishment projects initiated in the 1960s and 1970s has prompted implementation of various experimental and alternative erosion control schemes. Since 1981, the city has invested $4.5 million in the establishment of coarse sand beaches, sandbag reefs, and artificial seaweed plots.

The regional sand movement between two coastal inlets in Florida was studied by development of a regional sand budget. Major offshore sand movement was discovered after project initiation, with the amount of offshore accretion representing 50-73% of the nearshore erosion. Beach nourishment sites were eroding at similar rates of 43,000-45,000 cubic yards/yr, but the erosion rate per linear foot of shoreline declined with increased project length. Downdrift beaches accreted at about 33% of the erosion rates of adjacent nourishment sites.

In response, local communities on Fire Island planned and initiated beach nourishment projects which should provide a few years of protection until a federal project can be implemented. Short-term protection will also be offered by a USACE-designed breach closure scheme at Westhampton. The agency is now formulating a more comprehensive plan that addresses storm protection, erosion control, sand by-passing, and flood protection for the mainland. A state task force is also assessing state policy issues that affect local sponsorship of federal projects.

Hot spots develop as areas of increased erosion of the placed fill template. The nature of this phenomenon was monitored by USACE at a beach nourishment project in Ocean City, MD. The effort proved effective in providing shore protection; most fill material remained in the active profile envelope after winter storms. However, higher erosion and lower recovery rates were found for erosion hot spot areas relative to other sites. Shoreface-attached shoals corresponded with areas of high erosion.

Alternative erosion control technologies should not block marine turtle access to or otherwise disturb nesting sites. Project planners must be sure that physical barriers do not interfere with hatchling survival. Case study analysis reveals the effects, both positive and negative, of beach dewatering, chemical dune stabilization, artificial seaweed placement, and other projects on marine turtles. Additional monitoring of sand compaction, hydric conditions, and hatchling survival is needed to weigh the acceptability of alternative strategies.

AN - 36404029; 4429 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 third final 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 adverse 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. Under the preferred alternative (the Non-River-Tunnel Alternative), some 3,300 linear feet of tunnel would be added 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, would be built. Tunnel footage would be reduced through the construction of a viaduct to carry Storrow Drive-to-Tobin Bridge traffic. Minor revisions to this plan are presented in this final supplemental EIS: an off-ramp and tunnel ventilation facility would be relocated primarily in order to minimize adverse residential impacts. The estimated costs of the preferred alternative are $995 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The Charles River Crossing would link regional highway facilities on the south side of the river, including components of the Central Artery/Tunnel Project in Boston, to the regional network on the north side of the river, and to complete all necessary local connections to these facilities. 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 Charles River crossing under the preferred alternative would improve traffic flow and the level of service, and would eliminate the need for the double crossing of the Charles River. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some encroachment of parkland would take place under Scheme Z. Under the preferred alternative, the acquisition of a hospital and a steam generating plant, two properties that would be unaffected by Scheme Z, would be required. Noise levels would exceed federal standards at some locations under both plans, and both would require the filling of 1.1 acres of wetlands in the Millers River area. Under the preferred alternative, the historic Registry of Motor Vehicles building would need to be underpinned to prevent any long-term adverse 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.

The knowledge of the distribution and variability of hydraulic conductivity within these deposits are key factors for the estimation of water residence times and of description of large-scale mixing processes in aquifers such as macrodispersion. It has been shown elsewhere that the spatial variability of hydraulic conductivity is related to the composition and the characteristic dimensions of sedimentary structures, which are themselves related to the dynamics of ancient braided-river systems. In many contamination problems, sedimentological information is sparse and drill-core descriptions and pumping-tests only give a limited picture of the geometry of inhomogeneities. The ground-probing radar (GPR) method is a promising tool for resolving changes of physical properties in gravel deposits at the scale of natural inhomogeneities arising from changing sedimentary composition. However, the main limitation of GPR is the rapid attenuation of electromagnetic waves in subsurface sediments such as gravels, which leads to a limited penetration of the order of 10 to 15 m for a 250 MHz antenna. The objectives of our present work are: (1) To show how digital processing methods similar to reflection seismics may be applied for velocity and profile processing. These methods can improve both the resolution of radar profiles, in particular at greater depths, and the determination of velocity distributions from CDP experiments. (2) To examine whether and to what extent the characteristic lithofacies of Pleistocene gravel deposits can be recognized as mappable reflection patterns on ground-probing radar (GPR) reflection profiles in order to gain information about the geometry of inhomogeneities. Using modern digital data processing methods, such as band pass, high- or low-cut filtering, deconvolution and velocity analysis, much more significant information can be obtained from the recorded GPR field data-sets. Our results demonstrate that on GPR reflection images the basic fluvial forms such as (1) pool deposits generated at the junction of two-channels, and (2) channel deposits may be distinguished. Their shape and characteristic spatial dimensions may be recognized from a series of profiles in different directions. Because the method can detect changes in water content, the reflection image may be related even to small changes in the degree of saturation of the sediments. Thus reflectors can indicate the changing composition of sediments. JF - Journal of Applied Geophysics AU - Huggenberger, Peter AU - Meier, Edi AU - Pugin, Andre A2 - Chapellier, D.

AN - 36414046; 4396 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a hydroelectric project with an estimated installed generating capacity of 10.3 megawatts (MW) on the Snake River in Bingham County, Idaho, is proposed by the city of Idaho Falls. The proposed project site is located between river miles 783 and 789, approximately ten miles southwest of Idaho Falls and adjacent to the city of Shelley. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action, the project would consist of the following: (1) an earth-fill diversion dam 25 feet high and 300 feet long; (2) a spillway with five radial gates, capable of discharging flows of 55,000 cubic feet per second; (3) 12-foot-high dikes approximately 6,800 feet long on the eastern bank and 4,000 feet long on the western bank; (4) a 2.7-mile-long reservoir; (5) a 50-foot-long, 30-foot-wide powerhouse located at the diversion dam that would contain a 1.4- MW turbine generator unit; (6) a power canal 3,800 feet long and 20 feet wide, with embankments 11 feet high; (7) a 136-foot-long, 40-foot-wide main powerhouse containing an 8.9-MW bulb turbine generator; (8) a tailrace channel 500 feet long and 175 feet wide; (9) a 161-kilovolt (kV) transmission line 0.5 miles long; (10) a 4.16-Kv interconnection between the powerhouses; (11) the reconstruction of an existing diversion dam to allow continued diversion of water to the Fort Hall Reservation Canal; and (12) an access road and a bridge over the power canal. In addition, the applicant would construct and maintain two day-use recreation areas on the west bank of the reservoir near Woodville and another on the west bank of the free-flowing Snake River near the existing Blackfoot Canal diversion dam, and would restore and protect 290 acres adjacent to the Snake River and about 13 miles downstream from the proposed project. POSITIVE IMPACTS: According to the project applicant, the run-of-river hydroelectric facility would generate an annual average of 62.7 gigawatt hours of electricity. This additional generating capacity would increase the capacity and reliability of the regional electric power grid. New hydroelectric generation would provide an opportunity to reduce the quantity of atmospheric pollutants associated with the combustion of fossil fuels. During the peak construction period, the project would employ an average of 240 workers. Once operational, the project would employ two to three workers. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would adversely affect 124 vegetated acres, and despite the proposed mitigation, would not result in adequate replacement of lost or degraded wetland and riparian habitat, causing the long-term loss of wetland, riparian, and island habitat, which would adversely affect wildlife, particularly waterfowl. It would change 2.7 miles of existing river habitat to reservoir pool habitat and degrade a 2.4-mile bypass reach as a result of flow reduction. The icing of the reservoir pool and increased icing of the bypass reach would make the project area unsuitable for bald eagle foraging during the winter, displacing five to ten bald eagles. The project would also cause water temperature increases, which would violate state water quality laws; the loss of salmon spawning and rearing habitat; and a decrease in the production of trout. In addition, it would adversely affect visual resources at 42 residences.

AN - 36398801; 4452 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a lock replacement at the Marmet Locks and Dam on the Kanawha River near DuPont City in Kanawha County, West Virginia, is proposed. The Marmet Locks and Dam facility is located at Kanawha River mile 67.7, approximately five miles upstream from Charleston. The size of the existing locks is inadequate to accommodate the longer and wider tows in use. Modern tows must be disassembled in order to pass through the small locks at Marmet in multiple cuts, and subsequently reassembled after lockage is complete. The process of multiple lockages results in costly delays and increases the probability of accidents. Two lock size designs are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative, an additional lock would be added on the right descending bank landward of the existing locks and skewed one degree clockwise. The new lock would be 800 by 110 feet (Plan A). The existing locks would continue to be used during construction or maintenance at the new lock. The project would require the excavation of 3.0 million cubic yards of material and involve structural modifications to the dam to insure its stability. Mitigation measures would include onsite relocation of an intermittent stream, six acres of bottomland, and eight acres of high-quality tillable land. In-river structures would be constructed along several miles of bank to mitigate the impacts of tow traffic and tow configurations. The estimated project cost of the preferred alternative is $252.7 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The new lock would virtually eliminate delays to tows waiting for passage outside the project approach areas, which, 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 net benefits for Plan A would be $15.7 million, compared to $14.0 million for Plan B. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would displace 242 families and 10 businesses, and disrupt established neighborhoods. At the construction site, approximately 58 acres of mature urban- residential habitat, 9 acres of farmland, 5.76 acres of scrub shrub wetland habitat, and 29 acres of forests would be destroyed. Fish habitat would be degraded by construction activities and the operation of larger tows in the river.

AN - 15221535; 4450 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a 50-year plan for meeting the water supply needs of the lower Virginia peninsula is proposed. The project area includes the cities of Newport News, Hampton, Poquoson, and Williamsburg, and the counties of York and James City. The region is bounded by the James River on the south, the York River on the north, the Chesapeake Bay on the east, and New Kent and Charles City counties on the west. Based on population growth projections, the region will probably experience a water supply deficit as early as 1998. The reservoirs presently operated by Newport News Waterworks, the major supplier in the region, have yielded low-quality water whenever markedly drawn down; furthermore, additional drawdowns of groundwater could result in salt water intrusion in depleted aquifers. Focal issues identified include the effects on wetlands, endangered and threatened species, water quality and hydrology, and cultural resources. Thirty-one alternatives are considered in this draft EIS; three of these alternatives are proposed as the preferred long-term components of an overall plan to increase regional treated water delivery by 30.2 million gallons per day (mgd) through the year 2040. The three components involve establishing use restrictions beyond normal conservation measures to produce short-term reductions in water demand during water supply emergencies, resulting in the conservation of 1.5 mgd (Alternative 30); developing new well fields in western James City County and eastern New Kent County to provide an additional 4.4 mgd when local reservoir storage is below 75 percent of capacity (Alternative 21); and constructing a new 90-foot earthen dam across Cohoke Mill Creek in King William County, creating a reservoir that would provide 26.4 mgd (Alternative 15). The reservoir would drain 13.2 square miles and cover 2,234 acres at 90-foot pool elevation; it would be supplemented with water pumped from a new 75 mgd pump station on the Mattaponi River in King William County. In addition, water from the new reservoir would be pumped to two existing reservoirs to supplement their supplies. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the region's water supply and quality problems would be addressed; short-term conservation and emergency supply needs would be met while the new dam and reservoir are being built. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the new reservoir would result in the loss of 1,719 acres of forested habitat and 479 acres of palustrine vegetated wetlands. The withdrawal of waters from the Mattaponi River would represent a 7 percent loss of the river's average flow. Some 28.3 miles of stream channels would be impounded. The proposed dam is located within 375 feet of a bald eagle nest site.

AN - 36409222; 4406 AB - PURPOSE: The expansion of the surface mining (open-pit) operations by Texasgulf Inc. near the town of Aurora in Beaufort County, North Carolina, is proposed. The project area comprises 14,200 acres located on the north shore of the Pamlico River six miles north of Aurora. Since 1965 Texasgulf has operated phosphate mining and processing facilities in the area; through 1991, some 4,249 acres have been mined, and of this amount, some 716 acres have been reclaimed. The expansion would involve developing a new open-pit phosphate mine on a tract located in Richland township. The proposed mine would produce approximately 120 million tons of phosphate concentrate at the mill over a 20-year period. Five locational alternatives are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative B), the mine would be located on a 4,516-acre tract of land in the eastern portion of the project area, excluding all natural tributaries to the landward extent of Coastal Area Management Act jurisdictional areas. The removal of the first stage of overburden would be accomplished under one of two operational alternatives, either by hydraulic dredge or by bucket wheel excavator. In the second stage of overburden removal, the phosphate ore would be exposed by dragline. It would then be extracted by dragline and transferred into a sump, where high pressure water guns would be used to form a slurry. The slurry would then be transferred to the mill where the phosphate would be sized and washed and treated with froth flotation. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed mine expansion would permit the applicant to continue mining its phosphate reserve in an economically viable fashion, and ensure a continued supply of the element phosphorous, which is used in fertilizer, animal feed supplements, and other products. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the expansion would displace 4 private residences, 32 acres of prime farmland under cultivation, and 3,069 acres of jurisdictional wetlands, including 185 acres of special concern. A total of 992 acres of relatively undisturbed biotic communities would be adversely affected under the proposed action. Additional adverse impacts would include temporary drainage area reductions, loss of wildlife resources, loss of soil and mineral resources, short-term degradation of water quality, and the disturbance of a historic site. State Highway 306 would be relocated within the project area, and north-south portions of the Norfolk Southern Railroad would be rerouted.

Preparation date: January 19, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SOUTHWEST HARBOR CLEANUP AND REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT, PORT OF SEATTLE, KING COUNTY, WASHINGTON. AN - 36413371; 4451 AB - PURPOSE: The redevelopment and expansion of an existing container shipping terminal near the port of Seattle, Washington, is proposed. The proposed expansion would accommodate additional container services for American President Lines (APL) and other Port of Seattle customers to meet projected demand here and abroad. Additional project objectives would include avoiding or minimizing land-use and aquatic area impacts, improving the Harbor Avenue SW corridor, increasing public shoreline access, cleaning up contaminated areas, and improving fish and wildlife habitat. The project area, which occupies roughly 285 acres, is located in the Duwamish estuary where the mouth of the Duwamish River flows into Elliot Bay and Puget Sound. It is generally bounded to the south by SW Spokane Street, on the west by Harbor Avenue SW, to the north by Elliot Bay, and to the east by the West Waterway of the Duwamish River. This area presently contains 100 acres dedicated to Terminal 5 leased to APL; 80 acres of combined upland and aquatic areas at the closed Lockheed Shipyard No. 2 and the soon-to-be-closed wood treatment plant on the Wyckoff site; and 105 acres of upland west and south of these areas used by the Burlington Northern rail yard and other industrial facilities. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred redevelopment alternative (the West Waterway Redevelopment Alternative), Terminal 5 would be expanded to occupy 190 acres with an intermodal rail yard. The existing pier would be extended by 400 feet to add one berth, providing the terminal with up to three berths; this extension would require the removal of a timber pile pier, thereby reducing contamination levels in Elliott Bay. An additional 1,000 feet of pier would provide a fourth berth. Various cleanup activities would be undertaken, including dredging contaminated sediments from the Lockheed West Waterway Area and placing them on top of contaminated sediments at the north end of the site where they would be capped with clean cover material. Smaller contaminated areas would be capped with clean sediments throughout the project area. The estimated capital improvements costs for the preferred alternative range from $288.0 million to $316.0 million, depending on the number of berths built and the type of cleanup implemented. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the capacity of the port would be increased to handle additional shipping, and the overall efficiency of operations would improve. Terminal traffic would increase by roughly 10 percent, generating roughly $74.6 million in additional income. In addition, soils and marine sediments contaminated from past industrial practices would be cleaned up, and the potential for the contamination of groundwater through leaching would be reduced. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Although fish and wildlife would benefit from the elimination of contaminated soils, some reduction of habitat would take place as a result of the expansion of Terminal 5 and the filling of tidally-influenced stormwater drainage pools. Cleanup operations would adversely alter up to 19 acres of tribal fishing area by raising it from subtidal to intertidal elevations. Up to 10 businesses with 175 employees would be relocated.

AN - 36394203; 4433 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of State Route (SR) 9 from the Charles Town Bypass (US 340) in Jefferson County, West Virginia, to the Virginia state line is proposed. The proposed project would involve a seven-mile section of existing SR 9, which would be upgraded to a four-lane, partially-controlled-access highway. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under all of the build alternatives, the Shenandoah River and the Appalachian National Scenic Trail in the vicinity of the state line would be crossed. In addition, under all of the build alternatives, approximately 2,800 feet of roadway improvement south of the state line would be required in order to provide a smooth transition from the proposed four-lane highway to the existing two-lane roadway in Loudon County, Virginia. The new roadway would consist of two 12-foot lanes in each direction, a minimum 40-foot median, 10- to 12-foot paved right shoulders, and 3- to 6-foot paved left shoulders. Under one of the build alternatives (Line A), the facility would run parallel to existing SR 9 for most of its length; while under the other four alternatives, it would follow an alignment roughly one-half mile north of existing SR 9. The estimated total cost of the project is $58.3 million to $68.9 million, depending on the alternative selected. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed project, the facility would provide an improved highway for the increasing population of Jefferson County, improved highway safety in the project area, and an improved overall level of service to motorists by increasing intersection and highway capacity. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements under the build alternatives would displace 9 to 84 residences, up to 5 businesses, up to 1.04 acres of wetlands, 97.6 to 162.6 acres of forest, 56.6 to 92.7 acres of productive farmland, and 31.4 to 69.4 acres rangeland. In addition, 6.1 to 8.2 acres of the Appalachian National Trail would be purchased; 10.1 to 34.3 acres of floodplain encroachment would take place; and 1 to 3 historic structures would be adversely affected, depending on the build alternative selected.

Preparation date: January 11, 1994 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - PROPOSED PLAN FOR NAVIGATION IMPROVEMENT, FORT PIERCE HARBOR, SAINT LUCIE COUNTY, FLORIDA (REVISED DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF JUNE 1986). AN - 36411239; 4442 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of the existing federal project at Fort Pierce Harbor in Florida is proposed. The city of Fort 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 Fort 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. A November 1992 draft supplement to the final EIS evaluated the original proposal, a modified version of that proposal (the Modified Plan Alternative), 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 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 and to avoid dredging any seagrass beds. Under both proposals, all dredged material that were 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 815,000 cubic yards under the modified proposal. The modified proposal is the preferred alternative; its benefit-to-cost ratio would be 1.9. The estimated cost for a 28-foot-deep channel is $9.2 million. This revised draft supplement to the final EIS of June 1986 makes additional changes to modified proposal in order to reduce adverse environmental impacts and presents some additional analysis of the probable environmental effects. A dredged material disposal island would be modified into a shallow lagoon surrounded by wetland habitats. Two acres of a former borrow hole in the Indian River used for causeway construction would be filled and have an artificial reef placed on top; this would replace lost reef-like communities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The improvements in deep-draft navigation would provide economic benefits to shippers and attract new exporting and importing businesses, which would stimulate the local economy. Under the modified proposal, some 13.3 acres of rock/ledge habitat would be temporarily altered; while under the original proposal, some 16.6 acres would be altered. 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 adverse effects would be partially offset by the placement of dredged sand on adjacent beaches. Dredged sediments could bury nearby biological communities, and toxic contaminants present in the sediments could enter the food chain and become concentrated in large predators. Some phases of the operation could also adversely affect resident populations of manatees and sea turtles. In addition, some 15 acres of rocky channel-edge habitat and productive shallow-water habitat for invertebrates, crustaceans, and fish would be lost.

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.

Peroxone is an advanced oxidation process that utilizes the reaction of ozone and hydrogen peroxide to produce hydroxyl radicals without the requirement of ultraviolet light. The USAE Waterways Experiment Station (WES) evaluated the use of peroxone at Rocky Mountain Arsenal (RMA) for treatment of groundwater contaminated with diisopropylmethylphosphonate (DIMP) and low levels of pesticides. This evaluation was performed at RMA using a pilot scale treatment system. Results indicate that DIMP was easily oxidized to below detection limit levels. Optimization of the process indicated that a 250 m1/1 hydrogen peroxide dose in four columns plumbed in series that were all sparged with 2.2% ozonated air at a rate of 2.5 scfm.

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. This paper discusses the use of this dual sensor system in bathymetric charting of coastal water areas.

This paper will focus on new developments and applications procedures for the surface water hydrology models. The primary surface water hydrology model is the HEC-1 Flood Hydrograph Package. It can simulate the precipitation-runoff process in a wide variety of basins, from small urban areas to large river basins. It also has many features which facilitate its application to urban areas. The next generation of HEC-1, termed the NexGen Hydrologic modeling System, HMS, is currently under development. A new model to analyze flooding in interior areas (e.g., on the lad side of a levee) was just released. An older model (STORM) for urban storm water and combined sewer storage and treatment is still used in the profession but not actively supported by HEC. These models (primarily HEC-1) will be discussed in relation to urban hydrologic design. Future direction of the Corps new "Urban Hydrology Method/Models" research work unit will also be discussed.

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.

The banks are typically relatively large blocks of wetlands with estimated tangible and intangible values, termed credits. The accomplishments during the first phase of the two-phase National Wetland Mitigation Banking Study are elucidated. The following phase-one activities are described, which reviewed mitigation banking as practiced to date and explored the opportunities afforded by the banking concept that could contribute toward rational ecosystem management: nationwide inventory of existing and proposed banks; detailed case studies of representative banks; review of debiting and crediting methods; analysis of fee-based compensatory mitigation alternatives; examination of private markets for mitigation banking; exploration of potentials for banking within a watershed-planning framework; evaluation of potential to contribute to wetland goals; determination of the application of banking to USACE programs; preparation of preliminary guidelines for the establishment, management, and operation of mitigation banks; and recommendations for the next study phase. The overall conclusion is that the concept, when properly planned and managed, may provide an effective means to mitigate wetland loss in the US. USACE should assume a more direct role in bank establishment while continuing to provide oversight.

It was assumed that description of the competition between floc-forming and filamentous organisms required differentiation between readily biodegradable substrate in the influent and readily biodegradable products of hydrolysis. Most of the kinetic parameters for heterotrophic floc-forming and nitrifying organisms could be estimated directly in batch tests, but those for obligate aerobic filamentous bacteria, which represent only a small fraction of the biomass, must be estimated by indirect methods. The stoichiometry and process kinetics of the model are tabulated. (see also following abstract).

The model demonstrated that long retention periods in primary sedimentation tanks might induce aerobic bulking, and that even small amounts of aerobic filamentous bacteria in the influent might cause serious problems. The model also confirmed the effectiveness of compartmentalized aerobic selectors for suppressing the growth of filamentous organisms and preventing sludge bulking. In nitrifying plants, extended anoxic sludge blankets in secondary clarifiers also hindered the growth of aerobic filamentous bacteria. (see also preceding abstract).

Rate constants for inorganic and organic compounds AN - 13688696; 199402793 AB - Conventional batch-type and stopped-flow methods were used to determine the kinetics of chlorine dioxide consumption by a wide range of organic and inorganic compounds, and the results are tabulated. In all cases the rate law was first-order in both chlorine dioxide and substrate concentrations, and could be characterized by second-order rate constants. Measured data constants were high for nitrite, hydrogen peroxide, ozone, iodide, and ferrous iron, and also for phenolic compounds, tertiary amines, and thiols when the pH values was not too low. Bromide, ammonia, aromatic hydrocarbons, primary and secondary amines, aldehydes, ketones, and carbohydrates were unreactive under conditions typical of water treatment. In the case of weak acids (phenols) and weak bases, the effect of pH value on the reaction rate indicated that rate constants were much higher for deprotonated compounds than for protonated species.

Quantitative structure-activity relationships for phenolic compounds AN - 13684853; 199402794 AB - Data on rate constants for the reaction of chlorine dioxide with phenolic compounds were used to develop quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) for the rates of oxidation of substituted phenols with chlorine dioxide. These values could then be used to predict the rate constants for oxidation of other phenolic compounds. The second-order rate constants for oxidation of undissociated substituted phenols were about 6 orders of magnitude smaller than the corresponding values for phenoxide anions, indicating that, in the treatment of water with chlorine dioxide, only the reaction of the phenoxide anions would be significant.

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. Spatial discretization size should be selected to obtain numerically satisfactory computations in addition to an adequate representation of physical area 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.

These adsorbates comprised iodine, p-nitrophenol, and 3 organic dyes, namely Methylene Blue, Crystal Violet and Congo Red. The adsorption capacities for these compounds were correlated with pore size distributions obtained by the analyses of nitrogen isotherms at 77K with the aid of 2 theoretical models. The second, more recently-developed, diffusional theory (DFT) model appeared to provide the better correlation with dye adsorption behaviour, although with some possible deviations in the 8-14 Angstrom pore size range. Despite this, the new DFT model produced the more realistic results in the case of the lower molecular weight compounds and could be used to simulate the effects of various regeneration treatments on the pore size distribution from a knowledge of the changes in dye adsorption capacity.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Preparation date: November 4, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - RED MOUNTAIN FREEWAY (LOOP 202), PRICE FREEWAY TO STATE ROUTE 87, MARICOPA COUNTY, ARIZONA. AN - 15224005; 4363 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a roadway along the south side of the Salt River in the city of Mesa, Arizona, is proposed. The proposed roadway would extend approximately three miles from the traffic interchange that connects Loop 101 and Loop 202 on the west, to State Route 87 on the east. It would constitute a segment of Loop 202 within the Phoenix metropolitan area; Loop 101 is comprised of the Price, Pima, and Agua Fria corridors; Loop 202 is comprised of the Red Mountain, Santan, and South Mountain corridors. A recent traffic analysis concluded that such an east-west facility would provide the needed relief to traffic congestion in the area; by 2015, daily traffic volume is expected to increase by 81 percent over existing volumes. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative, a six-lane freeway with grade-separated interchanges and controlled access would be built. The freeway mainline would consist of two 36-foot-wide roadways separated by a 46-foot-wide median. The freeway would be generally at or slightly above ground level; elevated diamond interchanges would be provided at Dobson Road and Alma School Road. A portion of Dobson Road north of 8th Street would be realigned to connect with the diamond interchange. A half-diamond interchange would be built at the eastern terminus at State Route 87. An elevated grade separation over McKellips Road would also be built. If the collector-distributor roads between McKellips Road and Alma School Road interchange ramps were built, they would provide access between McKellips Road and the freeway. Under the other action alternative, an eight-lane major urban arterial with at-grade intersections would be built. The estimated cost of the preferred alternative is $60 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, a projected increase in traffic congestion would be alleviated, and a critical connecting link in the overall transportation system would be provided. The general circulation and accessibility between the area and the surrounding community would be improved. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would displace 62 mobile homes in a mobile home park, 15 businesses, and 39 acres of farmland. The freeway would encroach upon the regulatory floodway and floodplain of the Salt River. Disturbances of biological and cultural resources would be minimal because the area has been used for sand and gravel mining, agriculture, and urban development.

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 - 36414865; 4279 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a two-lane, 19.5-mile trestle and bridge, crossing the Chesapeake Bay from Virginia Beach, Virginia, to Northampton County on Virginia's Eastern Shore, is proposed. The proposed facility would run parallel to and adjoining the existing two-lane facility, which has been operated by the Chesapeake Bay Bridge and Tunnel District since 1959; the facility is the only direct link between the Delmarva Peninsula and southeastern Virginia. In recent years traffic has steadily increased on the structure, particularly during the summer months when maintenance work must be performed. Three alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed project (the preferred alternative) would consist of a two-lane, low-level trestle structure adjoining the existing trestle, two high-level bridges over the North Channel and Fishermans Inlet, and at-grade roadway construction at Virginia Beach, across Fisherman's Island and on the Eastern shore. The trestle structure (piles, pile cap beams, and concrete superstructure) would support a roadway 36 feet wide from gutter line to gutter line, with two 12-foot wide travel lanes, a three-foot inside (left) shoulder, and a nine-foot outside (right) shoulder. The two bridges would have the same vertical and horizontal main span clearances as the two existing bridges. The $300-million project would accommodate the future construction of tunnels parallel to the existing tunnels beneath the Thimble Shoal and Chesapeake navigation channels. The current project as proposed would not include the construction of two additional tunnels; instead, the new roadway would tie into the existing crossing at each of the four tunnel portal islands. The parallel roadway would be built on the Bay side of the existing structure in order to minimize the risk of ocean waves pushing construction equipment into the existing facility, and roughly 250 feet or more from the existing crossing to minimize local scour. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed structure would reduce the risks of accidents and improve traffic safety, accommodate expected traffic growth, and enable the performance of major maintenance work on the facility. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Benthic habitat would be lost as a result of portal island berm construction, bridge and trestle pile installation, and the widening of the Fishermans Island causeway. Less than one acre of wetlands would be permanently displaced by the proposed construction. Short-term increases in turbidity and sedimentation from construction channel dredging and other construction activities would take place. The northernmost three miles of the proposed project would cross two national wildlife refuges.

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.

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. LEGAL MANDATES: Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972 (43 U.S.C. 1241), Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.), and River and Harbor Act of 1899 (33 U.S.C. 401 et seq.).

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.

While the emphasis is on alluvial fans, many of the potential flood hazards and performance problems for fans are the same as those on alluvial stream projects throughout the Southwest. It is intended that documented flood problems will lead to an awareness of potential causes for failure, and the required analyses to quantify important design parameters. JF - Project Reports.

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.

Preparation date: September 16, 1993 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FAIRFIELD BRIDGE REPLACEMENT, ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY BRIDGE, HYDE COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA. AN - 15223879; 4274 AB - PURPOSE: The replacement of the Fairfield Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW) bridge in Hyde County, North Carolina, is proposed. The bridge is authorized for replacement because of unsafe operating conditions associated with structural deterioration and narrow roadway, traffic delays, and high operation and maintenance costs. The bridge crosses the AIWW at mile 113.8 and is located approximately 3.7 miles north of the city of Fairfield, on the coastal plain approximately 40 miles from the Atlantic Ocean and 20 miles from Pamlico Sound. The bridge is part of North Carolina 94, which runs from US 264 near New Holland to US 64 in Columbia. The existing structure, built in 1935, is a 200-foot-long steel through-truss swing bridge having a 20-foot two-lane roadway. The overhead clearance in 13.5 feet for highway traffic and the horizontal navigation clearance is 78 feet with a vertical clearance of 9.8 feet when closed. Current design standards require a 24-foot roadway, a vertical roadway clearance of 16 feet, and a minimum design load of 36 tons per vehicle. Focal issues addressed in relation to the replacement include the effects on land use and cover; wetlands; wildlife habitat; aquatic resources; cultural resources; visual quality and recreational resources; socioeconomics; hazardous, toxic, and radioactive waste; floodplains; prime and unique farmlands; and endangered species. Three alternative alignments for the replacement bridge and two alternative borrow/disposal sites are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed replacement bridge would be a high-level, fixed-span, two-lane bridge providing a Coast Guard required minimum horizontal navigational clearance of 90 feet and a minimum vertical clearance of 65 feet over the AIWW. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Replacement of the structure under any alignment is less expensive than the annual maintenance costs for the existing structure; a No Action Alternative was believed not to be reasonable and was dropped from further consideration. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some 1.5 acres of palustrine forested wetland, 1.0 acre of scrub-shrub wetland, and 1.6 acres of cattail marsh wetland would be adversely affected permanently. About ten acres would be adversely affected temporarily by borrow/disposal operations. The existing bridge is eligible for the National Registry of Historic Places; construction of the new bridge would necessitate its removal. The new bridge would dominate views along the waterway. Development for the bridge foundation in the base floodplain is unavoidable.
