Environmental Assessment;
Rehabilitation of Grade Stabilization
Structure 2, Turtle Creek Watershed,
Sarpy County NE
AGENCY: Natural Resources
Conservation Service, USDA.
ACTION: Notice of Availability, Finding
of No Significant Impact.
SUMMARY: The Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS) prepared
an Environmental Assessment in
compliance with the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), as
amended. Pursuant to the implementing
regulations for NEPA (40 CFR parts
1500–1508); the USDA Departmental
Policy for the NEPA (7 CFR part 1b); the
Natural Resources Conservation Service
Regulations (7 CFR part 650); and the
Natural Resources Conservation Service
policy (General Manual Title 190, Part
410); the Natural Resources
Conservation Service gives notice that
an environmental impact statement is
not being prepared for the rehabilitation
of grade stabilization Structure 2 in
Turtle Creek Watershed, Sarpy County
Nebraska. The Environmental
Assessment was developed in
coordination with the sponsoring local
organization (Papio-Missouri River
Natural Resources District) for a
federally assisted action to address
grade stabilization in the Turtle Creek
Watershed and the status of grade
stabilization dam Structure 2. Upon
consideration of the affected
environment, alternatives,
environmental consequences, and
comments and coordination with
concerned public and agencies, the
State Conservationist for NRCS,
Nebraska found that based on the
significance and context and intensity
that the proposed action is not a major
federal action significantly affecting the
quality of the human environment.
Thus, a Finding of No Significant
Impact (FONSI) was made.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
sponsoring local organization concurs
with this determination and agrees with
carrying forward the proposed project.
Structure 2 no longer meets the NRCS
safety and performance standards for a
High Hazard Class structure. The
proposed action is to rehabilitate
Structure 2 to a full-flow grade
stabilization structure, meet safety
requirements, and extend its life for 100
years. The existing principal spillway
would be removed, the auxiliary
spillway would be abandoned, the top
of dam would be lowered to remove
storage capacity and a broad-crested
weir chute spillway would be built.
Existing embankment removed from the
structure would be placed in the
existing auxiliary spillway and graded
to drain.
Information regarding this finding
may be obtained at the contact
information listed above. No
administrative action on
implementation of the proposed funding
action will be taken until 30 days after
the date of this publication in the
Federal Register.

natural resources.
