Description of the Martin County HSDR
Project and BOEM’s Connected Action
The USACE and Martin County Board
of Commissioners have proposed to
reduce the potential for damage to, or
loss of, coastal properties and habitat
along Hutchinson Island, Florida from
storm-induced wave impacts and
coastal erosion. In the Congressionallyauthorized Martin County HSDR
Project, the USACE will nourish 4 miles
of beach using a sea-turtle friendly
design template. The purpose of
BOEM’s connected action is to respond
to the request for use of OCS sand in the
beach nourishment, under the authority
granted to the Department of the Interior
by the Outer Continental Shelf Lands
Act (OCSLA) (43 U.S.C. 1337(k)(2)).
Under OCSLA, BOEM can convey, on a
noncompetitive basis, the rights to use
OCS sand, gravel, or shell resources for
use in a program for shore protection,
beach restoration or coastal wetland
restoration undertaken by a Federal,
state, or local government agency (43
U.S.C. 1337(k)(2)). The BOEM is
undertaking this action to respond to
the USACE’s and Martin County Board
of Commissioners’ request to use OCS
sand resources. The Secretary of the
Interior delegated the authority granted
in the OCSLA to BOEM.
Record of Decision
The BOEM’s decision is supported by
the comprehensive analysis presented
in the USACE’s Final SEIS. The SEIS
assessed the physical, biological, and
social/human impacts of the proposed
project and considered a range of nonstructural alternatives, including a noaction alternative, as well as impacts
from proposed mitigation. The SEIS was
developed cooperatively to fulfill all
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 226001
Federal agencies’ obligations under
NEPA and the environmental impacts of
their connected actions were
encompassed in the analysis. As the
USACE is the lead agency and BOEM is
a cooperating agency for the proposed
action, BOEM independently reviewed
and adopted the SEIS prepared by the
USACE (43 CFR 46.120). The USACE
published its ROD in February 2012.
The BOEM ROD summarizes the
alternatives considered by BOEM, the
decision BOEM made, the basis for the
decision, the environmentally preferable
alternative, required mitigation
measures, and the process the USACE
and BOEM, as a cooperating agency,
undertook to involve the public and
other Federal and state agencies. The
decision identifies and adopts
mitigation measures and monitoring
requirements enforceable by BOEM and
deemed practicable to avoid or
minimize the environmental harm that
could result from the project. In the
USACE’s ROD, the USACE committed
to implementing the mitigation
measures and monitoring requirements
identified in BOEM’s ROD. This action
is taken with the understanding that any
proposed use of OCS sand in future
beach re-nourishment activities by the
USACE will require a new negotiated
agreement and an updated
environmental analysis.
