Download as PDF lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 2412 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 10 / Friday, January 14, 2022 / Notices alternative, under which the proposal will not be undertaken or if RUS did not fund the proposed Project, other sites evaluated by Speedway Solar, and any reasonable alternatives defined as a result of the scoping process. In the EIS, the effects of the proposal will be compared to the existing conditions in the affected area of the proposal. Public health and safety, environmental impacts (such as impacts to vegetation, soils/prime farmland, wildlife/ endangered species, cultural resources, and land use), socio-economic, and engineering aspects of the proposal will also be considered in the EIS. As part of its broad environmental review process, RUS must take into account the effect of the proposal on historic properties in accordance with Section 106 of the NHPA (Section 106) and its implementing regulation, ‘‘Protection of Historic Properties’’ (36 CFR 800). Pursuant to 36 CFR 800.2(d)(3), RUS is using its procedures for public involvement under NEPA to meet its responsibilities to solicit and consider the views of the public during NHPA Section 106 review. Accordingly, comments submitted in response to this Notice will inform RUS decisionmaking during NHPA Section 106 review. In addition to compliance with Section 106, the Project will require evaluation under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and will obtain required state, county, and local permits. The Project has received approval from the Shelby County Board of Zoning Appeals. From information provided in the studies mentioned above, and using input provided by government agencies, tribes, and the public, RUS will prepare a Draft EIS. The Draft EIS will be filed with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and will be available for public comment by Spring 2022. At that time, RUS and USEPA will publish a notice of the availability of the Draft EIS and notice of receipt, respectively, in the Federal Register. In addition, Speedway Solar will publish notices in local newspapers and any online local news sources. The comment period will be 45 days from the date the EPA publishes its Federal Register notice announcing receipt of the Draft EIS. To assist the involved federal agencies in identifying and considering issues and concerns on the proposal, comments on the Draft EIS should be as specific as possible. It is also helpful if the comments refer to the specific pages or chapters of the Draft EIS. Comments may also address the adequacy of the Draft EIS or the merits of the alternatives formulated and discussed in VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:04 Jan 13, 2022 Jkt 256001 the statement. Reviewers may wish to refer to the CEQ’s regulations at 40 CFR 1503.3 in addressing these points. After the comment period ends on the Draft EIS, the comments will be analyzed, considered, and responded to by the agencies involved in preparing the Final EIS. The public will again have the opportunity to review and comment on the Final EIS. Upon completion of a 30day public comment period, the RUS will document its decision regarding the proposed Project and reasons for the decision in a Record of Decision. A public notice announcing the availability of the Record of Decision will be published in the Federal Register and local newspapers. Any final action by RUS related to the proposal will be subject to, and contingent upon, compliance with all relevant executive orders and federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations in addition to the completion of the environmental review requirements as prescribed in 7 CFR 1970, Environmental Policies and Procedures.
