    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 being prepared for Middle Deep Red 
    Run Watershed, Tillman, Kiowa, and Comanche Counties, Oklahoma.
    
    FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
    Ronnie L. Clark, State Conservationist, Natural Resources Conservation 
    Service, 100 USDA, Suite 203, Stillwater, Oklahoma, 74074-2655, 
    telephone: 405-742-1204.
    
    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The environmental assessment of this 
    federally assisted action indicates that the project may cause 
    significant local, regional, or national impacts on the environment. As 
    a result of these findings, Ronnie L. Clark, State Conservationist, has 
    determined that the preparation and review of an environmental impact 
    statement is needed for this project.
        The project concerns a plan for flood prevention and fish and 
    wildlife. Alternatives under consideration to reach these objectives 
    include systems for conservation land treatment and earth dams.
        A draft environmental impact statement will be prepared and 
    circulated for review by agencies and the public. The Natural Resources 
    Conservation Service invites participation and consultation of agencies 
    and individuals that have special expertise, legal jurisdiction, or 
    interest in the preparation of the draft environmental impact 
    statement. Meetings will be held in Tillman County to evaluate the 
    proposed action. Further information on the proposed action may be 
    obtained from Ronnie L. Clark, State Conservationist, at the above 
    address or telephone number.
    
    (This activity is listed in the Catalog of Federal Domestic

    local officials.)
