of intertidal and subtidal hardbottom in
Reach 8 and 1.05 acres of nearshore
hardbottom in Reaches 9 and 10 based
on in-water surveys conducted in 2010
and 2012, respectively.
e. Alternatives. An evaluation of
alternatives to the Applicants’ Proposed
Action initially being considered
includes a No Action alternative; beach
nourishment and dune restoration
through filling activities, groins, upland
coastal structural reinforcement/
replacement, and combinations of these
alternatives; alternatives that would
avoid, minimize, and mitigate impacts
to the aquatic resources; alternative
practices or analysis methods for
minimizing or evaluating cumulative
effects of shoreline stabilization; and
other reasonable alternatives that will be
developed through the project scoping
process which may also meet the
identified purpose and need.
f. Issues. The following issues have
been identified for analysis in the DEIS.
This list is preliminary and is intended
to facilitate public comment on the
scope of the DEIS. The DEIS will
consider the effects on Federally listed
threatened and endangered species,
Essential Fish Habitat, cumulative
impacts, geology/soils, environmental
justice, socioeconomic issues, traffic/
circulation, noise/vibration, aesthetics,
general environmental concerns,
wetlands and other aquatic resources,
historic properties, cultural resources,
fish and wildlife values, recreation, air
quality, water quality, considerations of
property ownership, sediment budget,
in general, the needs and welfare of the
people, and other issues identified
through scoping, public involvement,
and interagency coordination. At the
present time, the primary areas of
concern are the loss of hardbottom and
coral habitat, adequate characterization
of impacts, mitigation of the loss of
aquatic resources, the proposed projects’
effect on fisheries and essential fish
habitat and on Federally-listed
threatened and endangered species, the
potential effect of structures on
downdrift beaches, and potential
cumulative effects. The issues of
concern and the methods used to
evaluate those issues will be defined
through the scoping process.
g. Scoping Process. CEQ regulations
(40 CFR 1501.7) require an early and
open process for determining the scope
of an EIS and for identifying significant
issues related to the Proposed Action.
The Corps is furnishing this notice to
advise other Federal and State agencies,
affected federally recognized Tribes, and
the public of our intentions. This notice
announces the initiation of a 45-day
scoping period which requests the
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 229001
public’s involvement in the scoping and
evaluation process of the DEIS.
Stakeholders will be notified through
advertisements, public notices and other
means. All parties who express interest
will be given an opportunity to
participate in this process. The process
allows the Corps to obtain suggestions
and information on the scope of issues
and an opportunity to provide
reasonable alternatives to be included in
the Draft EIS. (See DATES and ADDRESSES
for meeting schedules)
h. Public Involvement. The Corps
invites Federal agencies, American
Indian Tribal Nations, state and local
governments, and other interested
private organizations and parties to
attend the public scoping meetings and
provide comments in order to ensure
that all significant issues are identified
and the full range of issues related to the
permit request are addressed.
i. Coordination. The Proposed Action
is being coordinated with a number of
Federal, state, regional, and local
agencies including but not limited to the
following: U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, U.S. National Marine Fisheries
Service, U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, Florida Department of
Environmental Protection, Florida State
Historic Preservation Officer, local
cities, and other agencies as identified
in scoping, public involvement, and
agency coordination.
j. Agency Role. The Corps will be the
lead agency for the EIS. The Corps
expects to receive input and critical
information from the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, U.S. National Marine
Fisheries Service, U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, and other federal,
state, and local agencies.
k. Availability of the Draft EIS. The
Corps currently expects the DEIS to be
made available to the public by April
2014. A public meeting will be held
during the public comment period for
the DEIS. Written comments will be
accepted at the meeting.
