58390 Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 189 / Thursday, September 30, 2004 / Notices 

Environmental Policies and Procedures 

(7 CFR part 1794). There are two Federal 

actions under the new HWWSP program 

being considered in this PEA: (1) Grants 

awarded by RUS to eligible grant 

recipients and (2) loans made by the 

grant recipient to eligible loan recipients 

using the direct or indirect proceeds of 

a HWWSP grant awarded under this 

program. 

The level of RUS environmental 

reviews for agency actions are 

categorized in 7 CFR part 1794, subpart 

C, Classification of Proposals. Both 

agency actions for the HWWSP program 

are classified in 7 CFR 1794 as 

categorical exclusions. The first action 

(grant award) is classified under 7 CFR 

1794.21(c)(3) categorically excluded 

proposals without an Environmental 

Report. The second (loan approvals) 

action is classified under 7 CFR 

1794.22(b)(1) categorically excluded 

proposals requiring an Environmental 

Report. 

Due to similar project activities and a 

limited area of potential effect of most 

HWWSP loan approval actions, RUS 

finds that a programmatic 

environmental analysis of the new 

HWWSP will reduce paperwork, 

duplication of effort, and promote a 

more efficient decision-making process 

for program implementation. RUS 

reserves the right to update this 

programmatic analysis to take 

additional information into account or 

develop particular elements of the 

analysis more fully as may be warranted 

in individual circumstances. 

In summary, RUS has determined that 

the implementation of the HWWSP will 

not significantly affect the human or 

natural environment. However, to 

minimize any potential for adverse 

effects to specific environmental 

resources grant recipients will be 

required to comply with the following 

mitigation measures. These mitigation 

measures will be incorporated in 

executed grant agreements. 

1. Floodplains 

The grant recipient will complete 

FEMA Form 81–93, Standard Flood 

Hazard Determination Form for all 

loans. If a household is located in a 

special flood hazard area (Code A and 

V), the revolving loan fund recipient 

must have flood insurance and the 

grantee shall obtain flood insurance 

certifications as part of the revolving 

loan fund closing process. 

2. Water Quality Issues 

HWSPHWWSP funded projects will 

be built by contractors that are 

appropriately licensed to do the work in 

the State where the project is located. 

Water withdrawal permits will be 

obtained as required by the appropriate 

State or local regulatory agency. 

3. Coastal Resources 

The grant recipient will obtain written 

approval from the U. S. Fish and 

Wildlife Service before approving any 

proposed loans located in Coastal 

Barrier Resources System units.
