GIWW Bankline Restoration Project; Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana
AGENCY: Natural Resources Conservation Service, USDA.
ACTION: Notice of Finding of No Significant Impact.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Pursuant to Section 102 (2)(C) of the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969; the Council on Environmental Quality Guidelines (40
CFR part 1500); and the Natural Resources Conservation Service
Guidelines (7 CFR part 650); the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, gives notice that an
environmental impact statement is not being prepared for the GIWW
Bankline Restoration Project, Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Donald W. Gohmert, State
Conservationist, Natural Resources Conservation Service, 3737
Government Street, Alexandria, Louisiana 71302; telephone (318) 473-
7751.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The environmental assessment of the
federally assisted action indicates that the project will not cause
significant local, regional, or national impacts on the environment. As
a result of these findings, Donald W. Gohmert, State Conservationist,
has determined that preparation and review of an environmental impact
statement is not needed for this project.
The project will protect critically eroding portions of the
southern bank of the GIWW that acts as an interface between the fragile
fresh marshes and the flowing, turbulent water of the GIWW. The
proposed project consists of 37,000 feet of bankline restoration and
protection along the foreshore of the southern bank of the GIWW.
The Notice of Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) has been
forwarded to the Environmental Protection Agency and to various
Federal, State, and local agencies and interested parties. A limited
number of copies of the FONSI are available to fill single copy
requests at the above address. Basic data collected during the
environmental assessment are on file and may be reviewed by contacting
Donald W. Gohmert.
No administrative action on implementation of the proposal will be
taken until 30 days after the date of this publication in the Federal
Register.
Donald W. Gohmert,
State Conservationist.
