subsequent construction of the 

recommended alternative which 

included a 13 foot cantilever wall on top 

of the dam, an additional concrete 

monolith on the east abutment, a 

floodgate closure across WV Rt. 20, 

removable closures at each end of the 

spillway, high strength anchors placed 

into the dam itself, massive concrete 

blocks placed against the downstream 

face of the dam, and a pavement for 

scour protection downstream of the 

hydropower penstocks. Ongoing 

construction on these measures will 

likely continue through the year 2020. 

d. Physical modeling and expert 

analysis conducted during project 

construction has shown that the 

downstream bedrock is vulnerable to 

erosion during high flow events as a 

result of deficiencies with the current 

stilling basin configuration. This 

potential erosion creates an 

unacceptable level of risk according to 

guidelines established in Chapter 5 of 

ER 1110–2–1156, under which this 

study is being conducted. 

e. The supplemental EIS and Dam 

Safety Modification report (DSMR) will 

consider the structural integrity of the 

dam, its ability to accommodate flood 

waters as well as transportation, noise, 

terrestrial, aquatic, economic, 

environmental justice and cultural 

resource issues associated with the 

performance of the dam. The 

supplemental EIS and DSMR will 

recommend any modifications 

necessary to ensure the long-term safe 

performance of the structure as 

originally intended. 

f. Modifications to meet current 

acceptable risk guidelines per ER 1110– 

2–1156 may include, modification of the 

existing stilling basin, modification of 

other dam components, construction of 

an alternative/auxiliary stilling basin, 

construction of an alternative/auxiliary 

spillway and non-structural measures or 

other actions to prevent overtopping. 

The No Action alternative will also be 

considered. As required by NEPA and 

Corps of Engineers planning guidance, 

the No Action alternative will form a 

benchmark from which alternatives are 

evaluated and compared. 

3. Public Participation: a. The Corps 

of Engineers will conduct a public 

scoping meeting on December 5, 2013 to 

gain input from interested agencies, 

organizations, and the general public 

concerning the content of the 

supplemental EIS, issues and impacts to 

be addressed in the supplemental EIS, 

and alternatives that should be 

analyzed. The meeting will be held from 

6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at the Summers 

County Memorial Building, 97 Park 

Avenue, Hinton, WV 25951. 

b. The Corps invites full public 

participation to promote open 

communication and better decisionmaking. All persons and organizations 

that have an interest in the Bluestone 

Dam Project are urged to participate in 

this NEPA evaluation process. 

Assistance will be provided upon 

request to anyone having difficulty with 

learning how to participate. 

c. Public comments are welcomed 

anytime throughout the NEPA process. 

Formal opportunities for public 

participation include: (1) Public 

meeting/s to be held near the 

community of Hinton; (2) Anytime 

during the NEPA process via mail, 

telephone or email; (3) During Review 

and Comment on the Draft EIS; and (4) 

Review of the Final EIS. Schedules and 

locations will be announced in local 

news media. Interested parties should 

submit contact information to be 

included on the mailing list for public 

distribution of meeting announcements 

and documents (See ADDRESSES). 

4. Schedule: The Draft Supplemental 

Environmental Impact Statement is 

tentatively scheduled to be released for 

public review and comment in June 

2015. The Final Report and Final EIS 

are tentatively scheduled to be 

completed in October 2015.

Meeting of the U.S. Naval Academy 

Board of Visitors 

AGENCY: Department of the Navy, DoD. 

ACTION: Notice of Partially Closed 

Meeting. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Naval Academy 

Board of Visitors will meet to make such 

inquiry, as the Board shall deem 

necessary, into the state of morale and 

discipline, the curriculum, instruction, 

physical equipment, fiscal affairs, and 

academic methods of the Naval 

Academy. The executive session of this 

meeting from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. 

on December 9, 2013, will include 

discussions of disciplinary matters, law 

enforcement investigations into 

allegations of criminal activity, and 

personnel issues at the Naval Academy, 

the disclosure of which would 

constitute a clearly unwarranted 

invasion of personal privacy. For this 

reason, the executive session of this 

meeting will be closed to the public. 

DATES: The open session of the meeting 

will be held on December 9, 2013, from 

8:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. The closed 

session of this meeting will be the 

executive session held from 11:00 a.m. 

to 12:00 p.m. 

ADDRESSES: The meeting will be held in 

Alumni Hall at the United States Naval 

Academy in Annapolis Maryland. The 

meeting will be handicap accessible. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Lieutenant Commander Matt Cady, 

USN, Executive Secretary to the Board 

of Visitors, Office of the Superintendent, 

U.S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, MD 

21402–5000, 410–293–1503. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice of meeting is provided per the 

Federal Advisory Committee Act, as 

amended (5 U.S.C. App.). The executive 

session of the meeting from 11:00 a.m. 

to 12:00 p.m. on December 9, 2013, will 

consist of discussions of law 

enforcement investigations into 

allegations of criminal activity, new and 

pending administrative/minor 

disciplinary infractions and nonjudicial 

punishments involving the Midshipmen 

attending the Naval Academy to include 

but not limited to individual honor/

conduct violations within the Brigade, 

and personnel issues. The discussion of 

such information cannot be adequately 

segregated from other topics, which 

precludes opening the executive session 

of this meeting to the public. 

Accordingly, the Secretary of the Navy 

has determined in writing that the 

meeting shall be partially closed to the 

public because the discussions during 

the executive session from 11:00 a.m. to 

12:00 p.m. will be concerned with 

matters coming under sections 552b(c) 

(5), (6), and (7) of title 5, United States 

Code.
