products and components of defense
procurements.
If DoD (for the U.S. Government)
concludes the renewal of an RDP
Agreement with the Government of the
Italian Republic and DoD executes a
blanket public interest determination, as
being considered, the Italian Republic
will continue to be listed as one of the
qualifying countries at DFARS 225.872–
1(a).
While DoD has discussed and
evaluated with the Government of the
Italian Republic its laws and regulations
in this area during an extended
negotiation period since October 2018,
DoD would benefit from U.S. industry’s
experience in participating in Italian
public defense procurements. DoD is,
therefore, asking U.S. firms that have
participated or attempted to participate
in procurements by or on behalf of the
Italian Republic Ministry of Defense and
Armed Forces to let DoD know if the
procurements were conducted with
transparency, integrity, fairness, and
due process in accordance with
published procedures, and if not, the
nature of the problems encountered.
DoD is also interested in comments
relating to the degree of reciprocity that
exists between the United States and the
Italian Republic when it comes to the
openness of defense procurements to
offers of products from the other
country. Further, DoD would like to
understand the degree to which U.S.
industry feels that it would have equal
and proportional access to the Italian
Republic defense markets as Italian
Republic industry would have in the
United States under an RDP Agreement.
In addition, DoD will benefit from
information provided by the public on
anticipated impacts to defense programs
and its supply chain if Italy no longer
qualifies for a waiver to the Buy
American statute and Balance of
Payments Program. Not concluding this
agreement would necessitate the
removal of Italy from the list of
qualifying countries in the DFARS.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Department of the Army, Corps of
Engineers
Withdrawal of Notice of Intent To
Prepare a Supplemental Environmental
Impact Statement for the San Clemente
Shoreline Protection Project
Corps of Engineers, Department
of the Army, DoD.
ACTION: Notice of intent; withdrawal.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE) is issuing this notice
to advise federal, state, and local
government agencies and the public that
USACE is withdrawing the notice of
intent (NOI) for the preparation of a
Supplemental Environmental Impact
Statement (SEIS) for the San Clemente
Shoreline Protection Project (Project)
which was published in the Federal
Register on July 2, 2024. Since
publication of the NOI, there has been
a reduction in scope which involves less
impacts than was anticipated at the time
of the NOI, resulting in preparing a
supplemental environmental assessment
(SEA).
DATES: The NOI to prepare a SEIS
published in the Federal Register on
July 2, 2024 (89 FR 54802), is
withdrawn as of March 19, 2025.
ADDRESSES: U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers, Los Angeles District,
Environmental Resources Branch,
(CESPL–PDR), 915 Wilshire Blvd., Suite
1109, Los Angeles, CA 90017–3409.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Questions about the withdrawal of the
NOI can be directed to Kenneth Wong,
Planning Division, USACE Los Angeles
District at (213) 361–2269 or
kenneth.wong@usace.army.mil.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The San
Clemente Shoreline Protection Project
was authorized by the Water Resources
Reform and Development Act of 2014,
Public Law 113–121, section 7002 for
the purpose of reducing coastal storm
damages by constructing a beach fill/
berm along the San Clemente shoreline.
The authorized project includes
construction of an approximate 50footwide beach nourishment project
along a 3,412-foot-long stretch of
shoreline using beach compatible
sediment, with renourishment on the
average of every 6 years over a 50-year
period of federal participation. The
project is further described in the Final
Feasibility Report dated February 2012
and Joint Final Environmental Impact
Statement/Environmental Impact Report
dated July 2011, SEA dated May 2023,
and SEA dated March 2024. In October
2024, the USACE finalized a SEA

evaluating the continuation and
completion of the initial construction of
the Project. The USACE determined the
reduced proposed action is not likely to
result in significant impacts requiring
preparation of a SEIS.
Construction of the project was
initiated in December 2023. However,
due in part to equipment damage and
sediment compatibility issues
encountered at the Oceanside borrow
area, construction was temporarily
paused. To allow for operational
flexibility, the March 2024 SEA
evaluated inclusion of the SurfsideSunset borrow area, a 106-acre borrow
site offshore Surfside-Sunset beaches
located 29 miles to the north of San
Clemente, in Orange County, as an
alternate borrow site for initial
construction of the project. In April
2024, during the construction window
evaluated in the March 2024 SEA, the
USACE contractor placed 115,000 cubic
yards of compatible sediment on San
Clemente Beach as part of the initial
construction of the Project.
The proposed action, as described in
the NOI, involved identifying suitable
location(s) containing enough beach
compatible sediment required to
nourish San Clemente Beach and
complete the project, including future
nourishment. Following monitoring of
the beach nourishment site, USACE will
determine the appropriate frequency
and borrow material quantity for beach
nourishment and whether a different
borrow site would be needed for those
future renourishments. USACE will
evaluate the proposed impacts of future
renourishment placements following
monitoring.
