DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE 

Department of the Army, Corps of 

Engineers 

Intent To Prepare a Draft 

Environmental Impact Statement for 

the Everglades Restoration Transition 

Plan—Phase 1 

AGENCY: Department of the Army, U.S. 

Army Corps of Engineers, DOD. 

ACTION: Notice of intent. 

SUMMARY: The Jacksonville District, U.S. 

Army Corps of Engineers intends to 

prepare a Draft Environmental Impact 

Statement (EIS) for the Everglades 

Restoration Transition Plan (ERTP)— 

Phase 1. The ERTP will supersede the 

2006 IOP for the Cape Sable Seaside 

Sparrow which currently regulates 

operations for Central & South Florida 

(C&SF) project features in the south 

Dade area. The ERTP Phase 1 aims to 

implement operational flexibilities 

based on multi-species management. 

This project is ‘‘phase 1’’ in anticipation 

of subsequent operational modifications 

that will be needed to move towards 

Everglades restoration. Development of 

the plan will include evaluation of 

relevant new species information and 

hydrological data. The ERTP Draft EIS 

will evaluate the anticipated affects of 

implementation of operations to support 

the recommendations of the U. S. Fish 

and Wildlife Service (FWS) Biological 

Opinion. 

ADDRESSES: U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers, Planning Division, 

Environmental Branch, P.O. Box 4970, 

Jacksonville, FL, 32232–0019. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mrs. 

Susan Conner at 904–232–1782 or email at 

Susan.l.Conner@.usace.army.mil. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

a. Background—In 1999, the FWS 

issued a Final Biological Opinion for the 

Modified Water Deliveries to Everglades 

National Park Project (MWD Project), 

the C–111 Project, and the Experimental 

Water Deliveries to Everglades National 

Park Project. FWS concluded that the 

operations, if continued, would likely 

jeopardize the continued existence of 

the endangered Cape Sable seaside 

sparrow and adversely modify its 

critical habitat. In response, the Corps 

implemented an Interim Structural and 

Operational Plan (ISOP) in March 2000, 

followed by the Interim Operating Plan 

(IOP) in July 2002. These operations 

were designed to protect the sparrow 

pending completion of construction of 

the MWD Project and the C–111 Project. 

Because of the urgency to implement 

IOP in time for the next sparrow 

breeding season, the IOP Final 

Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) 

was completed prior to conclusion of 

modeling that supported the selected 

plan. Pursuant to a March 2006 order by 

the United States District Court for the 

Southern District of Florida, the Corps 

prepared a supplement to the IOP FEIS. 

The Supplemental Environmental 

Impact Statement (SEIS), which was 

completed in December 2006, updated 

the IOP FEIS with modeling for the 

selected alternative and actual data 

collected since the May 2002 FEIS. The 

IOP was intended to be continued until 

the completion of the MWD project. 

However, Modified Water Deliveries 

project has not been fully completed, 

the IOP Biological Opinion will expire 

in November 2010, and new scientific 

information pertaining to listed wildlife 

species has become available. 

b. Scoping—A scoping letter was sent 

to invite comments on ERTP—Phase I 

from Federal, State, and local agencies, 

affected Indian Tribes, and other 

interested private organizations and 

individuals. The scoping letter was sent 

out in December 2009. That scoping 

period closed on February 1, 2010. 

Based on those comments and team 

analysis to date, USACE has determined 

that an EIS is appropriate. 

Subsequently, scoping comments will 

be accepted for 30 days past the date of 

this NOI. 

c. Coordination and Public 

Involvement: The Corps will serve as the 

lead Federal agency in the preparation 

of the Draft EIS. The Corps is in close 

coordination with the FWS. The Corps 

intends to coordinate and/or consult 

with an interagency team of Federal, 

State and Local agencies as well as 

affected Indian Tribes during scoping 

and preparation of the Draft EIS. 

d. Other Environmental Review and 

Consultation: The proposed action 

would involve evaluation for 

compliance with the Endangered 

Species act. The USACE will be 

submitting a Biological Assessment to 

the FWS and the FWS will prepare a 

Biological Opinion. All other applicable 

Environmental regulations will be 

complied with and reviews will be 

completed. 

e. Draft EIS Preparation: The Draft EIS 

is expected to be published in June 

2010. 

Dated: February 17, 2010.
