Notice of a Finding of No

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 not being prepared for the Marysville
Irrigation Company, Gravity
Pressurized, Irrigation Delivery System,
Fremont County, Idaho.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Richard Sims, State Conservationist,
Natural Resources Conservation Service,
9173 W. Barnes Dr., Suite C, Boise,
Idaho 83709–1574, telephone (208) 378–
5700.
The Plan/
Environmental Assessment of this
federally assisted action indicates that
the project will not cause significant
local, regional, or national adverse
impacts affecting the quality of the
human environment. As a result of these
findings, Richard Sims, State
Conservationist, has determined that the
preparation and review of an
environmental impact statement are not
needed for this project.
The Proposed Action consists of
replacing an open ditch irrigation
delivery system with buried plastic
pipelines to distribute gravity
pressurized irrigation water. The
Proposed Action includes the
construction and operation and
maintenance of three plastic pipelines
that provide for the delivery of gravity
pressurized irrigation water to
approximately 6,130 acres surrounding
Marysville, Idaho, eliminating most of
the need for pumping by electric
motors. Approximately 1,000 acres
would require booster pumps. Water
would only be drawn from the pipe
when irrigation is required, eliminating
overflow to the Henry’s Fork River. The
Proposed Action would eliminate about
90% of the water seepage loss from the
canals and the need for approximately
1,600 horsepower from electric pump
motors while not adversely affecting the
environment.
The Notice of Finding of No
Significant Impact (FONSI) has been
forwarded to the Environmental
Protection Agency. The basic data
developed during the plan/
environmental assessment is on file and
may be reviewed by contacting Mr.
Richard Sims. The FONSI has been sent
to various Federal, State, and local
agencies, and interested parties. A
limited number of copies of the FONSI
