Jkt 223001
Finding of No Significant Impact
(FONSI) for High Energy X–Ray
Inspection Systems (HEXRIS) at sea and
land ports of entry has been prepared
and is available for public review. The
final PEA documents a review of the
potential environmental effects of the
deployment and operation of HEXRIS at
various sea and land ports of entry.
Based on the final PEA, a determination
was made that the proposed action will
not significantly affect the human
environment such that further analysis
is required. Therefore, a FONSI was
issued, and no Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS) is required.
The final PEA and FONSI are
available for review through November
5, 2010.

Copies of the final PEA and
FONSI may be obtained by accessing the

High
energy X-ray inspection is a nonintrusive inspection technology that is
used to scan high-density cargo
containers for contraband such as illicit
drugs, currency, guns, and weapons of
mass destruction. To assist U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) in
meeting its mission requirements of
securing the borders of the United States
while simultaneously facilitating
legitimate trade and travel, High Energy
X–Ray Inspection Systems (HEXRIS) are
proposed to be deployed and operated
at both sea and land ports of entry
across the United States and Puerto
Rico. HEXRIS fill a unique niche in the
types of inspection tools used by CBP at
the Nation’s ports of entry. HEXRIS are
capable of penetrating dense cargo loads
that cannot otherwise be examined with
other technologies such as gamma
imaging systems or low-energy X-ray
systems. HEXRIS will also assist in
fulfilling the requirement for the 100%
scanning of containers entering the
United States as directed in the Security
and Accountability for Every (SAFE)
Port Act of 2006. Public Law 109–347
(Oct. 13, 2006).

The NEPA Process
The National Environmental Policy
Act of 1969 (NEPA) requires an agency
to evaluate the environmental
implications of any proposed major
action that could significantly affect the
quality of the human environment.
Generally, to meet the NEPA
requirements, an agency prepares an
Environmental Assessment (EA) to
determine whether a more thorough
analysis of the environmental
implications is necessary. If such an
analysis is necessary, the agency will
produce an Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS). If additional analysis is
not necessary, the agency will issue a
Finding of No Significant Impact
(FONSI). A Programmatic
Environmental Assessment (PEA) is an
EA that evaluates a major action on a
broad, programmatic basis.
Environmental evaluations at specific
project locations are conducted later.
HEXRIS PEA
On May 25, 2010, CBP published a
notice in the Federal Register (75 FR
29357). entitled: ‘‘Notice of Availability
of the Draft Programmatic
Environmental Assessment for the
Deployment and Operation of High
Energy X–Ray Inspection Systems at Sea
and Land Ports of Entry.’’ This notice
announced that a draft PEA concerning
HEXRIS had been prepared and made
available to the public in accordance
with NEPA, the Council on
Environmental Quality Regulations for
Implementing the NEPA (40 CFR parts
1500–1508), and Department of
Homeland Security Directive 023–01
(renumbered from 5100.1),
Environmental Planning Program of
April 19, 2006. The notice informed the
public on how to obtain a copy of the
draft PEA and requested comments from
the public about the draft PEA. The
draft PEA addressed the potential
environmental effects from the
installation and operation of HEXRIS at
various ports throughout the United
States. CBP conducted evaluations on
various resources present at the ports,
including: Climate, soils, water quality,
air quality, vegetation, wildlife, noise,
infrastructure, aesthetics, and
radiological heath and safety, which
were discussed in the draft PEA. The
draft was made available for a 30 day
public comment period, beginning on
the date of the publication of the notice.
The comment period ended on June 24,
2010. Two comments were received.
CBP has now prepared the final PEA
for the deployment and operation of
HEXRIS. The comments received on the
draft PEA have been reviewed and are
