ACTION: Notice of adoption of categorical exclusion. AGENCY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is adopting a Fish and Wildlife Service’s (FWS) categorical exclusion (CE) for restoration activities of wetland, riparian, instream, and native habitats under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to use in certain EPA water grants and loan programs administered by EPA. This notice describes the categories of proposed actions for which EPA intends to use FWS’s CE and describes the consultation between the agencies. DATES: This action is effective upon publication. SUMMARY: Julia Thorp, Community Grants Program, by phone at 202–565–2238, or by email at thorp.julia@epa.gov, or Alaina McCurdy, WIFIA, by phone at 202–565– 5795, or by email at mccurdy.alaina@ epa.gov. ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background NEPA and CEs The National Environmental Policy Act, as amended at, 42 U.S.C. 4321– VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:44 Apr 12, 2024 Jkt 262001 4347 (NEPA), requires all Federal agencies to assess the environmental impact of their actions. Congress enacted NEPA in order to encourage productive and enjoyable harmony between humans and the environment, recognizing the profound impact of human activity and the critical importance of restoring and maintaining environmental quality to the overall welfare of humankind. 42 U.S.C. 4321, 4331. NEPA’s twin aims are to ensure agencies consider the environmental effects of their proposed actions in their decision-making processes and inform and involve the public in that process. 42 U.S.C. 4331. NEPA created the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ), which promulgated NEPA implementing regulations, 40 CFR parts 1500 through 1508 (CEQ regulations). To comply with NEPA, agencies determine the appropriate level of review—an environmental impact statement (EIS), environmental assessment (EA), or CE. 42 U.S.C. 4336. If a proposed action is likely to have significant environmental effects, the agency must prepare an EIS and document its decision in a record of decision. 42 U.S.C. 4336. If the proposed action is not likely to have significant environmental effects or the effects are unknown, the agency may instead prepare an EA, which involves a more concise analysis and process than an EIS. 42 U.S.C. 4336. Following the EA, the agency may conclude the process with a finding of no significant impact if the analysis shows that the action will have no significant effects. If the analysis in the EA finds that the action is likely to have significant effects, however, then an EIS is required. Under NEPA and the CEQ regulations, a Federal agency also can establish CEs—categories of actions that the agency has determined normally do not significantly affect the quality of the human environment—in their agency NEPA procedures. 42 U.S.C. 4336(e)(1); 40 CFR 1501.4, 1507.3(e)(2)(ii), 1508.1(d). If an agency determines that a CE covers a proposed action, it then evaluates the proposed action for extraordinary circumstances in which a normally excluded action may have a significant effect. 40 CFR 1501.4(b). If no extraordinary circumstances are present or if further analysis determines that the extraordinary circumstances do not involve the potential for significant environmental effects, the agency may apply the CE to the proposed action without preparing an EA or EIS. 42 U.S.C. 4336(a)(2), 40 CFR 1501.4. If the extraordinary circumstances have the potential to result in significant effects, PO 00000 Frm 00022 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 26141 the agency is required to prepare an EA or EIS. Section 109 of NEPA, enacted as part of the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023, allows a Federal agency to ‘‘adopt’’ and use another agency’s CEs for a category of proposed agency actions. 42 U.S.C. 4336(c). To use another agency’s CEs under section 109, the adopting agency must identify the relevant CEs listed in another agency’s (‘‘establishing agency’’) NEPA procedures that cover the adopting agency’s category of proposed actions or related actions; consult with the establishing agency to ensure that the proposed adoption of the CE to a category of actions is appropriate; identify to the public the CE that the adopting agency plans to use for its proposed actions; and document adoption of the CE. Id. This notice describes EPA’s adoption of FWS’s CE under section 109 of NEPA to use in EPA’s program and funding opportunities administered by EPA. EPA’s Programs EPA intends to use the FWS’s CE for its restoration activities under two programs, the Community Grants Program and the Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (WIFIA) Program. EPA’s Community Grants Program funds projects for drinking water, wastewater, stormwater infrastructure, and water quality protection projects, which may include restoration projects of wetland, riparian, instream, or native habitats. For the Community Grants Program, Congress appropriates resources for specifically named water infrastructure projects identified as Congressionally Directed Spending and Community Project Funding items in Appropriations Acts. EPA’s WIFIA Program provides credit assistance (also referred to as direct loans or loan guarantees) for a range of drinking water and wastewater infrastructure projects. Eligible activities include habitat protection and restoration projects, such as shoreline activities, instream activities, water quality improvements, control of invasive vegetative and aquatic species, and fish and wildlife habitat conservation efforts. Both Community Grants and WIFIA Program activities may involve the construction of new or upgrades to existing small structures or improvements, such as water control structures, berms, and dikes, for the restoration of wetland, riparian, instream, or native habitats, and may include revegetation actions, such as the planting of native species. These types of restoration activities typically result E:\FR\FM\15APN1.SGM 15APN1

as described above. The eLibrary link also provides access to the texts 
of all formal documents issued by the Commission, such as orders, 
notices, and rulemakings.
    In addition, the Commission offers a free service called 
eSubscription which allows you to keep track of all formal issuances 
and submittals in specific dockets. This can reduce the amount of time 
you spend researching proceedings by automatically providing you with 
notification of these filings, document summaries, and direct links to 
the documents. For more information and to register, go to 
www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/esubscription.asp.
