Notice of Intent To Prepare an Environmental Impact Statement for the McGriff Lakes-Sutter Basin Watershed Flood Control and Flood Safety Project Sutter County, California
Document Number: 2022-27083
Type: Notice
Date: 2022-12-14
Agency: Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service
The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) California State Office announces its intent to prepare an EIS for the McGriff LakesSutter Basin Watershed Flood Control and Flood Safety Project, which is located approximately 30 miles northwest of Sacramento in the proximity of Knights Landing, California. NRCS is requesting comments to identify significant issues and alternatives to be addressed in the EIS from all interested individuals, Tribes, and Federal, State and local Agencies and jurisdictions. The EIS process will examine alternative solutions to modernize the existing Karnak Drainage Facility, portions of which are over 100 years old, to continue to provide reliable flood protection for the Reclamation District No. 1500 (RD 1500) service area. The Reclamation District service area includes over 60,000 acres of agricultural farmland, the community of Robbins and surrounding rural areas, and California State Route 113, a designated emergency route through the watershed. The primary purpose for this watershed plan is to provide reliable and long-term flood prevention and damage reduction to the RD 1500 service area and improve public safety and emergency access. Although the existing Karnak Drainage Facility has been well maintained, the required repairs for the pump stations are becoming more costly while the reliability of the facility is decreasing because parts needed for repair and continued operation are no longer available and must be custom fabricated. The aging infrastructure and lack of parts availability puts all land within the RD1500 service area at risk in the event of a significant rainfall event. Without adequate and reliable flood control, millions of dollars in agricultural products would be at risk, the designated emergency route would be in jeopardy of flood closures, and substantial property damage and potential loss of life are possible in the community of Robbins and surrounding areas.

Public Interest De Minimis and Small Grants Waiver of Build America, Buy America Provisions as Applied to Recipients of HUD Federal Financial Assistance
Document Number: 2022-27097
Type: Notice
Date: 2022-12-14
Agency: Department of Housing and Urban Development
In accordance with the Build America, Buy America Act (``BABA'' or ``the Act'') this notice advises that HUD has issued a departmentwide public interest De Minimis and Small Grants waiver to the Buy America Domestic Content Procurement Preference (``Buy America Preference,'' or ``BAP'') as applied to the iron, steel, manufactured products, and construction materials requirement of the Act for recipients of Federal Financial Assistance (``FFA''). For the purposes of this waiver, HUD has waived the application of the BAP for infrastructure projects whose total cost (including HUD funding and funding from any other source) is an amount equal to or less than the Simplified acquisition threshold, which is currently $250,000. HUD has also waived the application of the BAP for all Small Grants of FFA provided by HUD that are equal to or below the Simplified acquisition threshold, which is currently $250,000. However, if FFA provided by HUD is combined with other FFA from another Federal agency, and the total amount of FFA in a single project is greater than the Simplified acquisition threshold, currently $250,000, then the waiver shall not apply to the FFA provided by HUD. Additionally, HUD has waived the application of the BAP for a De Minimis portion of an infrastructure project, meaning a cumulative total of no more than 5 percent of the total cost of the iron, steel, manufactured products, and construction materials used in and incorporated into the infrastructure project, up to a maximum of $1 million. In accordance with the Act, HUD has found that such De Minimis and Small Grants waivers are in the public interest. The waiver will assist HUD and its grantees and funding recipients in preventing immediate delays to critically important projects that serve to ensuring the safety and health of HUD constituents and continuing to provide economic opportunity through housing and community development projects. Moreover, this waiver will assist HUD in working to strengthen the housing market to bolster the economy and protect consumers, meet the need for quality affordable rental homes, utilize housing as a platform for improving quality of life, and build inclusive and sustainable communities free from discrimination.

Document Number: 2022-27096
Type: Notice
Date: 2022-12-14
Agency: Department of Housing and Urban Development
In accordance with the Build America, Buy America Act (``BABA'' or ``the Act'') this notice advises that HUD has issued a public interest waiver to further HUD's phased implementation of the Buy America Domestic Content Procurement Preference (``Buy America Preference,'' or ``BAP'') for recipients of Federal Financial Assistance (``FFA'') provided by HUD. On May 5, 2022, HUD previously issued a separate waiver covering all FFA obligated by HUD on or before November 14, 2022, including Community Development Block Grant (``CDBG'') formula grants. In order to fully focus on the successful implementation of the BAP in CDBG formula grants, one of HUD's largest grant programs, HUD has determined that it is in the public interest to issue a new public interest waiver of the application of the BAP for all other FFA obligated by HUD. By this notice, HUD announces that it is waiving the application of the BAP on or after the effective date of this waiver for all FFA obligated by HUD on or before February 21, 2023, except for those funds utilized in connection with the purchase of iron or steel products in infrastructure projects funded by CDBG formula grants obligated by HUD on or after November 15, 2022. In addition, in the case of FFA obligated by HUD on or after November 15, 2022 but prior to the effective date of the final waiver, HUD is waiving the application of the BAP for all expenditures incurred on or after the date of the final waiver, except for those funds utilized in connection with the purchase of iron or steel products in infrastructure projects funded by CDBG formula grants obligated by HUD on or after November 15, 2022.
