plans to address flooding issues in
Findlay and Ottawa by evaluating a
series of flood risk management
measures within the vicinity of these
two affected areas.
Proposed Action: In accordance with
40 CFR parts 1500–1508 and Engineer
Regulation 200–2–2, an EIS is being
prepared for the Federal Flood Risk
Management Study within the
Blanchard River watershed including
the communities of Findlay and Ottawa
to ensure full and fair consideration of
significant environmental impacts. This
EIS will inform decision-makers and the
public of reasonable alternatives to
reduce the risk of loss of life and
property damage from flooding in these
areas and that would also avoid or
minimize adverse impacts and/or
enhance the quality of the human
environment. The proposed EIS will
focus on the implementation of flood
risk management measures associated
with the Blanchard River in and within
the vicinity of Findlay and Ottawa. The
EIS will be consistent with sound
engineering practices and will be
drafted concurrently with actions to
achieve compliance with other
applicable Federal environmental
compliance requirements, including
those established by Section 404 of the
Clean Water Act. In addition, the EIS
will be consistent with State and local
plans.
Reasonable Alternatives: It is Corps of
Engineers planning policy to consider
practicable and relevant alternative
management measures, including a no
action alternative. While the preferred
alternative has not yet been established,
the alternative plans considered in the
EIS will consist of an array of structural
and nonstructural measures for both
Findlay and Ottawa. Structural
measures may include, but are not
limited to, channel realignment/
diversion, levees and floodwall creation,
culvert modification, and the creation of
flood storage areas, including wetlands,
bermed containment areas, and water
detention areas/reservoirs.
Nonstructural measures may include,
but not be limited to, elevating existing
buildings, relocation or acquisition of
flood-prone structures, wet and dry
floodproofing, as well as the
development and implementation of a
flood warning system or flood
emergency preparedness plan.
Scoping Process: The Corps of
Engineers invites affected Federal, State
and local agencies, interested Indian
Nations, and other concerned
organizations and individuals to
participate in development of the EIS.
An initial Scoping Document was
distributed in June 2008 and the Corps
