be dependent on slope and the potential
for erosion.
• Use only the sterile variety of giant
miscanthus cultivar known as the
‘‘Illinois Clone’’ within the proposed
project areas; all Illinois Clone cultivars
must be approved for planting under
Aloterra’s membership through the Ohio
Seed Improvement Association’s
Quality Assurance program.
• Initiate a seed sampling program to
determine the on-going sterility of seeds
produced from the acres within the
project areas. The seed sampling
program includes recommended actions
specified in the mitigation and
monitoring plan, including eradication,
if a seed sample returns viable seed.
• Exclusion of planting giant
miscanthus on certain acreage within
the project areas, depending upon
certain site-specific conditions specified
in the mitigation and monitoring plan,
like those lands subject to frequest
flooding events.
• Develop monitoring program to
identify:
(1) Notify both United States
Department of Agriculture (USDA) and
the project sponsors of any spread of
giant miscanthus outside of planted
fields as soon as possible after
identification of the spread,
(2) Notify the project sponsors of the
identification of diseases and pests as
soon as possible after identification and;
(3) Include wildlife use or changes in
use in the annual producer report
specify all; a USDA representative will
conduct an annual field visit to monitor
the site and to look for potential spread
of Miscanthus beyond the site and;
(4) USDA will work with local weed
control districts to provide additional
monitoring and evaluation of the sites as
appropriate.
• Annual producer reporting, to
include land use tracking with the
average and total size of enrolled fields;
prior land use; rationale for land use
change; spread of giant miscanthus
outside of planted fields; any pests or
diseases identification; the use of
pesticides or herbicides to control
unwanted spread of giant miscanthus or
pests or diseases; BMP and CPS
incorporated into field management,
such as erosion control structures or
materials, vegetative barriers, etc.;
fertilizer usage and application
methods; and cost data.
Determination
In accordance with NEPA and FSA
environmental regulations at 7 CFR part
799 that implemented the regulation of
the Council on Environmental Quality
(40 CFR parts 1500–1508), I find that the
Proposed Action and associated
VerDate Mar<15>2010

mitigation measures do not constitute a
major Federal action significantly
affecting the quality of the human
environment. Therefore, no
environmental impact statement will be
prepared.
I make these findings and
determination today, May 23, 2011, in
Washington, DC, effective immediately.
This notice will be published on our
Web site and in the Federal Register.
