Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 50 / Thursday, March 14, 2019 / Notices
Approximately 479 parking spaces
would be displaced at the Dean
Harwood Parking Lot; however, vehicle
parking would be compensated by
reorganization of existing parking lots
and improvement and construction of
some combination of several nearby lots
(i.e., Shed 1567 lot, Lot 33, the Wedge,
and the Bachelor Enlisted Quarters lot)
that would be covered with compacted
gravel and reorganized to provide
replacement parking spaces. Although
the final configuration and dimensions
of the proposed replacement parking
lots would not be known until the time
of final design, the replacement lots
would be expected to provide up to
approximately 479 parking spaces.
Under Alternative 2, DLA would
resize the DLA-occupied portion of the
NAVSTA Norfolk HAZMAT warehouse
to meet square footage requirements,
renovate the DLA-occupied portions of
the NAVSTA Norfolk and NNSY
HAZMAT warehouses, and demolish
and replace both gas cylinder sheds and
pavement areas. The HAZMAT
warehouses would be properly
configured for optimized storage
capacity and upgraded in accordance
with fire- and life-safety requirements
and per the facility condition
assessment upgrade recommendations
for each site.
Description of the No Action
Alternative: Under the No Action
Alternative, DLA would continue to
store HAZMAT in the existing
HAZMAT warehouses and gas cylinder
sheds on NAVSTA Norfolk and NNSY.
Shed X–380 (gas cylinder shed at
NAVSTA Norfolk) would continue to
degrade and HAZMAT storage would
reach overcapacity at the NNSY
HAZMAT facilities due to projected
future workload increases. The
HAZMAT facilities would continue to
be improperly sized for their current
and future mission demands; have
extensive fire- and life-safety hazards,
poor utility conditions, insufficient
ventilation, and inefficient storage area
configurations; and soon be in conflict
with the NAVSTA Norfolk Master Plan
and NNSY Installation Development
Plan. The No Action Alternative would
not meet the purpose of and need for the
Proposed Action.
Potential Environmental Impacts: No
significant effects on environmental
resources would be expected from the
Proposed Action. Insignificant, adverse
effects on air quality, water resources,
geological resources, cultural resources,
biological resources, land use and visual

resources, noise, infrastructure,
transportation, public health and safety,
and hazardous materials and wastes
would be expected. Insignificant,
beneficial effects on water resources,
geological resources, land use and
visual resources, noise, infrastructure,
public health and safety, hazardous
materials and wastes, and
socioeconomics would be expected. No
impacts on airspace management/safety
and environmental justice would be
expected. Details of the environmental
consequences are discussed in the EA,
which is hereby incorporated by
reference.
Determination: DLA has determined
that implementation of the Proposed
Action will not have a significant effect
on the human environment. Human
environment was interpreted
comprehensively to include the natural
and physical environment and the
relationship of people with that
environment. Specifically, no highly
uncertain or controversial impacts,
unique or unknown risks, or
cumulatively significant effects were
identified. Implementation of the
Proposed Action will not violate any
federal, state, or local laws. Based on the
results of the analyses performed during
preparation of the EA and lack of
comments received during the public
comment period, Mr. Gordon B. Hackett
III, Director, DLA Installation
Management, concludes that
implementation of the Proposed Action
at NAVSTA Norfolk and NNSY does not
constitute a major federal action
significantly affecting the quality of the
human environment within the context
of NEPA. Therefore, an environmental
impact statement for the Proposed
Action is not required.

k. This application is not ready for
environmental analysis at this time.
l. Project Description: The project
consists of two developments; the 14.88
Megawatt (MW) Parr Shoals
Development and the 511.2–MW
Fairfield Pumped Storage Development.
The Parr Shoals Development consists
of: (1) The 15-mile-long, 4,250-acre Parr
Reservoir, at full pond elevation 265.3
feet North American Vertical Datum of
1988 (NAVD 88); (2) the 2,690-foot-long
Parr Shoals Dam, which includes a nonoverflow section, spillway section with
10 gates, and powerhouse intake
section; (3) a powerhouse integral with
the dam, with six generating units; and
(4) transmission facilities that consist of
three 950-foot-long, 13.8-kilovolt lines
extending from the hydro station to the
non-project Parr sub-station.
The Fairfield Pumped Storage
Development consists of: (1) Parr
Reservoir which serves as the lower
pool; (2) the 6,800-acre Monticello
Reservoir (upper reservoir), at normal
maximum elevation 424.3 feet NAVD
88, formed by four earthen dams (A, B,
C, and D); (3) a 265-foot-long gated
intake channel, located between dams B
and C; (4) four 800-foot-long surface
penstocks bifurcating into eight
penstocks; (5) an underground
generating station, which houses eight
pumped-turbine units; and (6)
transmission facilities that consist of
three 7,000-foot-long lines extending
from the Fairfield switch station to the
non-project V.C. Summer switchyard.
The Fairfield Pumped Storage
Development is operated to generate
during peak demand periods.
Generation usually occurs during the
day, with the upper reservoir
replenished by pumping water at night
(non-peak period). The Parr Shoals
Development serves as the lower
reservoir for the pumped storage project.
