and provide mortuary services and to
obtain and document the election of the
person authorized to effect disposition
of civilian remains for whom the
Department provides mortuary services.
If the person authorized to effect
disposition does not sign this form, then
the Department cannot provide
mortuary and transportation services in
accordance with their elections or
instructions to the extent allowed by
statute or DoD policy. This collection is
authorized by 10 U.S. Code sections
1481 through 1488. In addition, the
Secretary of Defense directed the
addition of these forms to ensure
transparency and standardization of the
mortuary procedures as defined in the
Final Report of the Dover Port Mortuary
Independent Review Subcommittee
Implementation Plan and 180-day
study. Currently there is a lack of
standardization across the Military
Services, as each Service currently
utilizes different forms for this election
and they do not all capture the same
information even on similar forms.
Standardizing the information collected
is essential in maintaining the
transparency and integrity of the
mortuary affairs process.
Affected Public: Business or other for
profit; Person Authorized to Effect
Disposition (PAED); family members of
the deceased; local inhabitants.
Annual Burden Hours: 60.
Number of Respondents: 120.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Average Burden per Response: 30
minutes.
Frequency: On occasion.
The respondents are the person
authorized to effect disposition of the
civilian decedent for whom mortuary
services as described on DD Form 3004
is recommended or required, and the
DoD witness to that election. The person
authorized to effect disposition
documents their election on DD Form
3004, and signs the form. The election
and signature are witnessed by a
military service member or DoD civilian
to formalize this process and document
the election. This form becomes a part
of the Official Individual Deceased
Personnel File. If the person authorized
to effect disposition does not sign this
form, then the Department cannot
provide the authorized mortuary and
transportation services.
The respondents for DD Form 1074
are the Military Service Member and the
local inhabitant being interviewed. The
Service Member is the individual
completing the form, however in the
process information is collected on the
person interviewed. This form becomes
a part of the Official Individual
Deceased Personnel File. This form

Notice of Intent To Prepare a
Supplemental Draft Environmental
Impact Statement for the Lower Cache
Creek Flood Risk Management Project,
City of Woodland, Yolo County,
California (CA)
Department of the Army, U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers, DoD.
ACTION: Notice of Intent.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (Corps), Sacramento District,
intends to prepare an integrated
Feasibility Report/Supplemental Draft
Environmental Impact Statement (FR/
SDEIS) for the Lower Cache Creek Flood
Risk Management Feasibility Study
(feasibility study). The Corps will serve
as the lead agency for compliance with
the National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA). The feasibility study is
evaluating opportunities to reduce flood
damages to the city of Woodland and
improve the conveyance of the
hydraulic system in the lower Cache
Creek Basin, in Yolo County, CA.
A Draft EIS was originally submitted
for public review on March 21, 2003 (68
FR 13907). Following an assessment of
public comments received as well as a
determination of additional technical,
environmental, and economic
evaluation needs, the local sponsors, the
City of Woodland and the Reclamation
Board of the State of California, decided
to pause the feasibility study. The 2003
Draft EIS/EIR was never finalized and
no Record of Decision was prepared.
The local sponsor reinitiated the study
with the Corps in 2011 after further
coordination with stakeholders and
interested parties. Because of significant
new circumstances and information
relevant to environmental concerns and
bearing on the proposed action or its
impacts, a supplement to the 2003 draft
EIS is being prepared.
