ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
Improvement and Reform Act of 1996
(Pub. L. 104–127) requires NRCS to
make available for public review and
comment all proposed revisions to
conservation practice standards used to
carry out HEL and wetland provisions of
the law.
Revisions to NHCP
The extent of the proposed changes
varies considerably for each of the
conservation practice standards
addressed in this notice. To fully
understand the proposed changes,
individuals are encouraged to compare
these changes with each current
standard, which can be found at:
https://www.nrcs.usda.gov/resources/
guides-and-instructions/conservationpractice-standards.
NRCS is requesting comments on the
following conservation practice
standards:
• Fish Raceway or Tank (Code 398);
• Irrigation Pipeline (Code 430);
• Stripcropping (Code 585); and
• Woody Residue Treatment (Code
384).
The following paragraphs highlight
some of the proposed changes to each
standard.
Fish Raceway or Tank (Code 398):
The revised standard expands the
practice purposes to include treatment
of effluents before release into receiving
waters as well as assessment and
planning for increased system efficiency
to conserve energy use. The revised
standard makes clear that it applies to
the production of aquatic organisms in
general, and not just finfish. We added
additional component details for
flow-through systems to the ‘‘Criteria’’
section for waste (effluent) management.
We removed the species-specific water
quality requirements for the two species
listed and replaced them with
references to land-grant university
requirements. We added new content to
the ‘‘Considerations’’ section to provide
options for recirculating aquaculture
system approaches that minimize water
use and permit secondary use of
wastewater (such as in aquaponics
systems). Also, in the ‘‘Considerations’’
section, we added an additional
evaluation of the effects of water
withdrawal on native aquatic organisms.
Finally, we made minor revisions
throughout the standard to improve
readability, and references were
updated based on literature review.
Irrigation Pipeline (Code 430): We
made minor rewording edits throughout
the standard to improve readability. We
added maximum permitted surge for a
high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe
to the ‘‘Flexible conduit design’’
subsection. We added a new subsection
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 259001
to address protection of pipeline and
appurtenances was added to the
‘‘Considerations’’ section. We updated
the ‘‘Additional Considerations for
Economics’’ subsection to include the
collapsible lay flat tubing application,
replacement of which is considered
operation and maintenance. We updated
the ‘‘Additional Considerations for
Water Quality and Quantity’’ subsection
to include impacts to downstream
drinking water and drought mitigation;
we also updated references were also
updated.
Stripcropping (Code 585): We edited
the ‘‘Definition,’’ ‘‘Criteria,’’ and
‘‘Considerations’’ sections of the
standard for clarity. We added a
reference to the use of the
‘‘Implementation Requirement’’
document to the ‘‘Plans and
Specifications’’ section.
Woody Residue Treatment (Code 384):
We reduced the practice life span to 1
year and refined the ‘‘Purpose’’ section.
We removed two purposes and
combined two other purposes. We
modified the burning criteria to follow
the ‘‘Prescribed Burning’’ (Code 338).
We refined the ‘‘Considerations,’’ ‘‘plans
and Specifications,’’ and ‘‘Operation
and Maintenance’’ sections, and
updated references.
