Beyond the riparian community are agricultural fields on the east side of the diversion dam and BLM land on the west side of the diversion dam that is primarily comprised of desert shrubs and grasses. Environmental resources consist of the natural and man-made environment. Preliminary resource concerns associated with the rehabilitation of the diversion dam may include both beneficial and negative impacts to water quality and supply, fish, threatened and endangered species, cultural, recreation, aesthetics, and public health and safety. Alternatives—NRCS is analyzing the following conceptual alternatives to rehabilitate the diversion dam: • Repair Existing Diversion Dam: Repair the existing diversion to safely pass flood events. • Replace Existing Diversion Dam: Demolish the existing diversion dam and install a new dam in the same location. • Replace Diversion Dam Downstream: Demolish the existing diversion dam and install a new diversion dam downstream. • Replace Diversion Dam Upstream: Demolish the existing diversion dam and install a new diversion dam upstream. • Diversion Decommissioning: Completely remove the diversion dam from the river and stabilize the diversion site. The existing water rights at the dam would be supplemented via pumping out of the river or other options to provide water to the water rights holders. • Fish Passage Upstream/ Downstream: Construct a passage system(s) on the dam to allow safe upstream and downstream passage of fish over the diversion dam. • Electric Fish Barrier: Install an electric fish barrier to prevent fish from swimming into the powerhouse and irrigation canal on the west side of the diversion dam. • Fish Barrier: Install a fish barrier to prevent fish from swimming into irrigation canal on the east side of the diversion dam. • Boat Passage Upstream/ Downstream: Construct a passage system(s) on the dam to allow safe downstream passage of boats past the diversion dam. NRCS will consider any viable alternatives brought forward during scoping if it is substantially different from the alternatives described above. NRCS will also study a No-Action alternative which would consist of no Federal money used for the rehabilitation of the diversion dam.

ACTION: Notice of Finding of No Significant Impact. AGENCY: Pursuant to Section 102(2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969; the Council on Environmental Quality Guidelines (40 CFR part 1500); and the Natural Resources Conservation Service Guidelines (7 CFR part 650); the Natural Resources Conservation Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, gives notice that an environmental impact statement is not being prepared for the Non-Rock Alternatives to Shoreline Protection Demonstration Project (LA–16), Iberia, Jefferson, and Lafourche Parishes, Louisiana. SUMMARY: 33051 shoreline protection systems will be demonstrated in up to three (3) test sites in coastal Louisiana. Up to five (5) ‘‘non-rock’’ shoreline protection systems will be installed in 500 linear foot sections at each site, extending a maximum of 4,200 linear feet (including buffer areas) along the shoreline at each site. The sites selected include the western side of the peninsula separating Vermilion and Weeks Bay in Iberia Parish; the southeast shoreline of Lake Salvador in Jefferson Parish; and the western shoreline of Bayou Perot in Lafourche Parish. The Notice of Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) has been forwarded to the Environmental Protection Agency and to various federal, state, and local agencies and interested parties. A limited number of copies of the FONSI are available to fill single copy requests at the above address. Basic data collected during the environmental assessment are on file and may be reviewed by contacting W. Britt Paul. No administrative action on implementation of the proposal will be taken until 30 days after the date of this publication in the Federal Register. W. Britt Paul, Acting State Conservationist.
