SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Environmental Assessment of this
federally assisted action provides evidence that the environmental
effects associated with the proposed changes from the original EIS to
the current project proposal, will not result in significant direct,
indirect, or cumulative impacts on the environment. Therefore, Ms. M.

Significant Impact and determined that the preparation and review of a
Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement are not needed for this
project.
The project purposes are flood control and municipal and industrial
water supply. The planned works of improvement include the installation
of a combination roller compacted concrete and earth fill multiple
purpose flood control and water supply structure approximately 1,000
feet upstream of the Auburn Bridge at Route 602 in Fauquier County,
Virginia.
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 developed during the
Environmental Assessment are on file and may be reviewed by contacting
Ms. M. Denise Doetzer, State Conservationist.
No administrative action on implementation of the proposal will be
taken until 30 days after the date of this publication in the Federal
Register.
(This activity is listed in the Catalog of Federal Domestic
