DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
Natural Resources Conservation Service
Goshen County, North Platte River Groundwater Quality Project
Watershed, Goshen, WY
AGENCY: Natural Resources Conservation Service, USDA.
ACTION: Notice of a 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 regulations
(40 CFR part 1500); and the Natural Resources Conservation Service
Regulations (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 Goshen
County, North Platte River Groundwater Quality Project Watershed,
Goshen County, Wyoming.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Lincoln E. Burton, State Conservationist, Natural Resources
Conservation Service, Room 3124, Federal Building, 100 East B Street,
Casper, Wyoming 82601, telephone (307) 261-5201.
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. As
a result of these findings, Lincoln E. Burton, State Conservationist,
has determined that the preparation and review of an environmental
impact statement are not needed for this project.
The project purpose is watershed protection--the on-site treatment
of agricultural related pollutants for off-site benefits. The planned
works of improvement include accelerated technical assistance for land
treatment, accelerated financial assistance to treat 5,800 acres to
reduce the amount of nitrogen available to be leached to the
groundwater, and eight animal waste management facilities.
The Notice of a Finding Of No Significant Impact (FONSI) has been
forwarded to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 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
Lincoln E. Burton.
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.)
Lincoln E. Burton,
State Conservationist.
