Environmental Impact Statements and Regulations; Availability of
EPA Comments
Availability of EPA comments prepared pursuant to the Environmental
Review Process (ERP), under Section 309 of the Clean Air Act and
Section 102(2)(c) of the National Environmental Policy Act as amended.
Requests for copies of EPA comments can be directed to the Office of
Federal Activities at (202) 564-7167.
An explanation of the ratings assigned to draft environmental
impact statements (EISs) was published in FR dated May 18, 2001 (66 FR
27647).
Draft EISs
ERP No. D-COE-A39138-00 Rating **3, Programmatic EIS--Nationwide
Permits Procedures Review and Examination, US Army Corps of Engineers
Section 10 and 404 Permit Issuance.
Summary: EPA believes the data used in the Draft PEIS and the
methods used to analyze and draw conclusions from that data were
inadequate, thereby preventing a full disclosure of potentially
significant environmental impacts of the proposal. EPA recommended that
the draft PEIS be formally revised and made available for public
comment in a supplemental or revised draft PEIS.
ERP No. D-USA-A10074-00 Rating EC2, Programmatic EIS--Army
Transformation, Army Vision to Address the Changing Circumstances of
the 21st Century, Transformation in three Phases: Initial Phase,
Interim Capacibility Phase, and an Objective Force Phase.
Summary: EPA expressed environmental concerns regarding air, land
use, water resources, and noise and requested additional information
regarding impact analysis.
Dated: December 18, 2001.

Director, NEPA Compliance Division, Office of Federal Activities.
