    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The environmental assessment of this 
    federally assisted action indicates that the project will not cause 
    significant local, regional, or national impacts on the environment. 
    Based on evidence presented, Michael Somerville, State Conservationist, 
    has determined that the preparation and review of an environmental 
    impact statement are not needed for this project.
        The project proposes to rehabilitate an existing flood retarding 
    structure to reduce the threat of loss of life and damage to property.
        The Notice of a 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. 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 Donald Paulus, Water 
    Resources Planning Staff Leader, at the above address.
        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 
    Assistance under No. 10.904, Watershed Protection and Flood 
    Prevention, and is subject to the provisions of Executive Order 
    12372, which requires intergovernmental consultation with State and 
    local officials.)
