Notice of Intent To Prepare a Draft
Environmental Impact Statement on
Rock Mining in Wetlands in Levy
County, FL
Department of the Army, U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers, DoD.
ACTION: Notice of intent.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (Corps) Jacksonville District
intends to prepare a Draft
Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS),
referred to as the Tarmac King Road
Limestone Mine DEIS, to evaluate
potential impacts of rock mining within
wetlands in southern Levy County, FL.
DATES: The Corps plans to hold two
public scoping meetings on or about
March 26 and 27, 2008 at 6 p.m. EST.
ADDRESSES: The first meeting will be
held on March 26, 2008 at the Inglis
Community Center, 137 Highway 40
West, Inglis, FL 34449, (352) 447–2203.
The second meeting will be held March
27, 2008 at the Tommy Usher
Community Center, 506 Southwest 4th
Avenue, Chiefland, FL 32626–0121,
(352) 493–6711.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.
Edward P. Sarfert, (850) 439–9533 or
e-mail at
edward.p.sarfert@usace.army.mil.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
a. Background/Project Authorization.
The Corps is preparing this DEIS in
accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of
1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), Council of
on Environmental Quality (CEQ)
Regulations (40 CFR 1500 et seq.), and
Corps provisions for implementing the
procedural requirements of NEPA (33
CFR 230, USACE Engineering
Regulation ER 200–2–2). A primary
purpose of a Corps Regulatory Program
EIS is to provide full and fair discussion
of the significant environmental impacts
of a proposal or project seeking a U.S.
Department of Army permit. The Draft
and Final EIS are used to inform the
public and agency decision-makers of
alternatives to an applicant’s project
that might avoid or minimize adverse
impacts or enhance the quality of the
human environment. An EIS is not a
Corps regulatory decision document. It
is used by agency officials in
conjunction with other relevant
information in a permit application file,
including public and agency comments
presented in the Final EIS, to support
the final decision on a permit

application. In this instance, Tarmac
America, LLC, has filed a permit
application to mine areas that include
wetlands within Levy County, FL.
b. Need or Purpose. The purpose of
the proposed action is to provide
construction-grade aggregate that meets
the Florida Department of
Transportation specifications for
buildings and infrastructure. The
proposed mine is to provide this
aggregate for Tarmac’s and its
customers’ use in the west central area
of Florida. The Corps recognizes that
there is a public and private need for
this product. The purpose of the
proposed DEIS is to evaluate the
environmental effects of alternatives to
meet these requirements while
protecting the aquatic environment.
c. Prior EAs, EISs. None.
d. Alternatives. An evaluation of
alternatives, including a No Action
alternative and rock mining in other
areas both inside and outside of Levy
County and/or Florida will be done. The
DEIS will analyze reasonable
alternatives to obtaining construction
grade limestone to meet the purpose and
need. Alternatives will be determined
through scoping, but are expected to
vary according to timing, and breadth of
mining, in addition to a ‘‘no action’’
alternative.
e. Issues. The following issues have
been identified for analysis in the DEIS.
This list is preliminary and is intended
to facilitate public comment on the
scope of the DEIS. The DEIS will
consider the effects on Federally listed
threatened and endangered species,
health and safety, socioeconomics,
aesthetics, general environmental
concerns, wetlands (and other aquatic
resources), historic properties, cultural
resources, fish and wildlife values, land
use, transportation, recreation, water
supply and conservation, water quality,
energy needs, mineral needs,
considerations of property ownership,
and, in general, the needs and welfare
of the people, and other issues
identified through scoping, public
involvement, and interagency
coordination. At the present time, our
primary areas of environmental concern
are the loss of wetland functions and
value, mitigation of such losses, and the
effect of proposed mining on
groundwater and surface water quality
and on transportation. We expect to
better define the issues of concern and
define the methods that will be used to
evaluate those issues through the
scoping process.
f. Scoping Process. CEQ regulations
(40 CFR 1501.7) require an early and
open process for determining the scope
of a DEIS and for identifying significant
