the No Action/Future without Project
Alternative. Pursuant to the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of
1969, as amended, the USACE
developed the draft GRR/EA to examine
and assess the impacts of the project
alternatives and determined that
implementation of the Proposed Action
would not result in significant impacts.
DATES: The Draft GRR/EA is available
for a 30-day review period. Written
comments, pursuant to the NEPA, will
be accepted until the close of public
review at the close of business on
January 15, 2018.
ADDRESSES: Written comments or
questions from the public may be
submitted to the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers, Norfolk District, ATTN: Mr.
David Schulte, Planning Branch,
Environmental Analysis Section
(CENAO–WR–PE), 803 Front Street,
Norfolk, VA 23510 or via email to
david.m.schulte@usace.army.mil.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.
David Schulte, 757–201–7007.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
document is available at the following
locations: (1) Elizabeth River and
Southern Branch Navigation
Improvements website: https://www.nao.

Nav.aspx, (2) Slover Public Library, 235
East Plume Street, Norfolk, VA 23510.
(3) Copies may also be requested in
writing at (see ADDRESSES).
Proposed Action. The Study Area is
located in Hampton Roads, a 25 squaremile natural harbor serving port
facilities in the cities of Norfolk,
Newport News, Portsmouth,
Chesapeake, and Hampton in
southeastern Virginia. The study area
consists of a of a federally improved
channel extending from Lamberts Bend
(on the main stem of the Elizabeth
River) to the Chesapeake Extension in
the southern branch of the Elizabeth
River.
The Action Alternative consists of
constructing and maintaining the
following features:
• Deepening the channel from
Lamberts Bend to Perdue Farms
(Segment 1a) from a required depth of
40 feet to 45 feet deep in Segment 1a,
and deepening the channel from Perdue
Farms to the Norfolk Southern Lift
Bridge (Segment 1b) from a required
depth of 40 feet to 42 feet.
• Deepening the channel from the
Norfolk Southern Lift Bridge to the
Gilmerton Bridge (Segment 2), from a
required depth of 35 feet to 39 feet deep;
and
• Continuing to maintain the channel
from the Gilmerton Bridge to the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
20:03 Dec 11, 2017
Jkt 244001
Chesapeake Extension to a required
depth of 35 feet (Segment 3).
Implementation of the Preferred
Alternative would have the potential to
impact water quality, benthic resources,
cultural resources, floodplains, federally
listed threatened and endangered
species, marine mammals, and other
natural resources. The Proposed Action
must be located in a floodplain in order
to use the Craney Island Dredged
Material Management Area (CIDMMA)
as a dredged material placement site.
The Proposed Action will adhere to the
8-step process as outlined under
Executive Order 11988, Floodplain
Management.
Alternatives. The Draft GRR/EA
considers a reasonable range deepening
alternatives in the project channels to
meet the proposed action’s purpose and
need. It also incorporates measures to
avoid and minimize impacts to
threatened and endangered species, fish
and wildlife species, estuarine and
marine habitat, and other resources. In
response to problems and opportunities,
a range of alternatives was evaluated
through an iterative screening and
formulation process, resulting in
identification of a Preferred Alternative.
Public Involvement. On September 22,
2015, a Notice of Intent to publish an
EA was published, along with
information on a NEPA public scoping
meeting on September 24, 2015. A
Federal Register Notice was also
published to announce the initiation of
the feasibility study and also the public
NEPA scoping meeting. As part of the
public involvement process, all affected
federal, Commonwealth of Virginia, and
local agencies, private organizations,
and the public were invited to the
Public Scoping Meeting on September
24, 2015 in Norfolk, Virginia.
This study is authorized under
Section 216 of the Flood Control Act of
1970 (Pub. L. 91–611), which authorizes
the review of completed projects in the
interest of navigation and related
purposes to determine the feasibility of
further port deepening.
