**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :**  Mr. Eric Sorrells, Chief, Environmental Management, at (256) 450–2677 or by
email at eric.sorrells@mda.mil.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  MDA is responsible for developing, testing, and fielding an integrated, layered, Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) to defend the United States, its deployed forces, allies, and friends against all ranges of enemy ballistic missiles in all phases of flight. Using complementaryinterceptors; land-, sea-, air-, and spacebased sensors; and battle management, command and control, and communications systems, the planned BMDS is intended to engage and negate all classes and ranges of ballistic missile
threats.

MDA and its predecessor organizations prepared several programmatic BMDS National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documents to analyze the environmental impacts of its actions. In addition, MDA has prepared or been a cooperating agency for over 70 environmental assessments (EAs) or environmental impact statements (EISs) for specific program activities. These
NEPA documents cover activities including research and development, site preparation and construction, maintenance and sustainment, manufacture of test articles (prototypes), test and evaluation, fielding of missile defense systems and components, and the ultimate decommissioning and disposal or transfer of BMDS components and assets at many DoD installations, other agency sites, and industrial sites around the globe. Additionally, MDA has carefully
considered over 200 records of environmental consideration (RECs)/ records of categorical exclusion/Air Force Form 813s documenting the use of the respective military Service’s Categorical Exclusions (CATEXs) for


### 26214 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 88 / Wednesday, May 7, 2014 / Notices

minor actions occurring on host installations or ranges.

As a DoD agency, the MDA does not own real property. Because most MDA actions typically occur on host military service installations or ranges, or other Federal agency properties, MDA has historically relied upon our host installation or Federal agency’s NEPA implementation, including their implementing procedures and CATEXs, to address the environmental impacts of

MDA actions.

With the issuance of CEQ guidance ‘‘Establishing, Applying, and Revising Categorical Exclusions under the National Environmental Policy Act’’ (2010) and after consulting informally with the CEQ, MDA determined the need to establish NEPA implementing procedures and CATEXs specific to MDA projects and actions. The
information that MDA assembled while developing our CATEXs is described in
the ‘‘Administrative Record for Missile Defense Agency Proposed Categorical
Exclusions’’ and is available on the
MDA Web site at: http://www.mda.mil//
news/environmental

_reports.html. The proposed CATEXs describe the categories of actions that MDA determined will not normally have a potential significant effect, individually or cumulatively on the human environment; and together with the proposed implementing procedures will guide MDA organizations in carrying out the procedural requirements of

NEPA.

MDA has determined that issuing these procedures and CATEXs does not constitute a regulatory action or ‘‘rule making’’ as defined by Executive Order 12866 and the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (5 U.S.C. 605(b)), which would have required additional review by the Office of Management and Budget.

The text of the complete proposed Guidance document appears below.

The National Environmental Policy Act
Procedures for the Missile Defense Agency

1. Purpose

These procedures implement the provisions of the NEPA, 42 U.S.C. 4321
et seq. They adopt and supplement the CEQ regulations implementing NEPA, 40 CFR parts 1500–1508, by establishing policy, directing environmental planning, and assigning responsibilities in the MDA to prepare, review, and approve environmental documents that comply with NEPA.

2. Scope

The policies and responsibilities in these procedures apply to activities conducted by MDA and its executing agents in the United States, its possessions, and territories. The potential environmental effects of MDA proposed activities in foreign countries and global commons will be considered
in accordance with Executive Order 12114, ‘‘Environmental Effects Abroad of Major Federal Activities,’’ DoD directives, host nation final governing standards, overseas environmental baseline guidance documents, status of forces agreements, and other international agreements.

3. Policy

(a) It is MDA policy regarding NEPA,
consistent with our mission and regulations and the environmental laws and regulations of the United States, to: (1) Start the NEPA process at the earliestpossible time as an effective decisionmaking tool while evaluating a proposed action; (2) develop and carefully consider a range of reasonable alternatives to achieve the proposed actions; (3) write environmental analyses in plain English; and (4) to the maximum extent practical: (i) Include pollution prevention alternatives, (ii) consider sustainable transportation, greenhouse gas emissions, and energy choices, and (iii) ensure that, consistent with other national policies and national security requirements, we use practical means and measures to protect, restore, and enhance the quality of the environment and mitigate adverse consequences. MDA lacks projects or programs where actions are planned by private applicants or other non-Federal entities. Therefore, these procedures do not include the provision (as specified at 40 CFR 1501.2(d)) to account for actions planned by private applicants or
other non-Federal entities.

(b) MDA will promote efficiency in its NEPA process through: (1) Being aware and involved with the MDA project advocate (or MDA proponent) in the NEPA process; (2) using programmatic analyses and ‘‘tiering,’’ where appropriate, to make sure that decisions are made at the right levels, eliminating repetitive discussion, considering cumulative effects, and focusing on issues that are important and appropriate for discussion at each level; (3) using scoping and public involvement processes to ensure the analysis of issues of interest to the public and/or important to decision making; (4) eliminating needless paperwork by focusing documents on the major environmental issues affecting those decisions, including the use of adoption or incorporation by reference of previous, relevant NEPA analyses prepared by other agencies; (5) early integration of the NEPA process into all aspects of MDA planning to prevent disruption in decision making; (6) partnering or coordinating with agencies, organizations, and individuals whose specialized expertise improves the NEPA process; (7) clear and concise communication of data, documentation, and information; and (8) execution of the NEPA compliance process within
the framework of the MDA’s Environmental Management System.

(c) MDA will periodically (at least every seven years) review the effectiveness of its NEPA program and these implementing procedures, the appropriateness and usefulness of our categorical exclusions (CATEXs), the accuracy of predicted findings of no significant impact, the effectiveness of mitigation, the ramifications of actions both individually and cumulatively, and the currency of the BMDS 2008 Programmatic Environmental Impact

Statement.

(d) MDA will post NEPA implementing procedures, CATEXs, and summary information on our use of CATEXs for proposed actions on its public Web site.


### 26215 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 88 / Wednesday, May 7, 2014 / Notices

4. Responsibilities

(a) The MDA Director has overall authority to ensure MDA activities comply with NEPA and has final approval authority regarding EIS records of decision (RODs).

(b) The Agency Environmental Executive (EE) acts as the principal
MDA advisor on NEPA-related requirements. The EE will: (1) Ensure NEPA compliance of MDA activities in
accordance with MDA NEPA implementing procedures and other applicable NEPA guidance and regulations; (2) coordinate with MDA stakeholders for NEPA issues regarding program/element activities; (3) provide intra-agency and inter-agency liaison
and coordination on NEPA-related matters; and (4) have signature authority for EA findings of no significant impact (FONSIs).

(c) The Chief, Environmental Management will: (1) Educate and train MDA staff to implement NEPA; (2)
coordinate with MDA’s EE to maintain
a record of the MDA’s environmental
activities and advance the national environmental policy articulated in NEPA, other Federal statutes, regulations, and Executive Orders; (3) prepare MDA NEPA reviews; (4) submit Federal Register (FR) notices for draft and final NEPA documents (as appropriate); (5) represent the MDA in
NEPA-related matters with outside groups; (6) ensure applicable NEPA requirements are met on schedule during planning for any MDA action; (7) coordinate NEPA compliance actions at the proposal stage with MDA organizations; (8) ensure required NEPA mitigation measures are performed; and (9) ensure all documents being prepared by MDA are properly cleared for public release prior to the release or posting of the documents on any publicly
accessible Web site or location.

5. Public Involvement

MDA will make diligent efforts to involve the public in preparing and implementing its NEPA procedures in accordance with 40 CFR 1501.4(b), 1506.6 and part 1503. When developing a plan to include the public and affected parties in the environmental analysis process, MDA will consider the following factors: (1) The magnitude of
the environmental considerations associated with the proposed action; (2) the extent of expected public interest; and (3) any relevant questions of
national concern.

6. Environmental Review Categories

A proposed action may fall into these five broad categories for environmental

review: (a) Exemption by law. To use an exemption by law, the law must apply to MDA and must prohibit, exempt, or make impossible full compliance with

NEPA.

(b) Emergencies. If an emergency requires MDA to take immediate actions for national defense or security or to protect life or property, the following provisions apply. (1) The responsible official may take actions necessary to control the immediate impacts of the emergency and are urgently needed to mitigate harm to life, property, or important natural or cultural resources. When taking such actions, the responsible official must take into account the probable environmental consequences of the emergency action and mitigate foreseeable adverse
environmental effects to the extent practical. (2) For emergency actions other than those actions in paragraph (b)(1), if the responsible official responding to the emergency and the Environmental Management Division jointly conclude the emergency actions qualify for a CATEX and do not involve extraordinary circumstances that prevent using a CATEX as defined in these procedures, no further analysis is required to comply with NEPA before proceeding with emergency actions. The Environmental Management Division will prepare a Record of Environmental Consideration (REC) to document this conclusion. (3) If the responsible official proposes emergency actions other than those in paragraph (b)(1), and the actions do not qualify for a CATEX but will not likely have significant environmental impacts, MDA will
document that determination in an Environmental Assessment (EA) and Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) prepared in accordance with these procedures. If the responsible official determines that the proposed emergency actions must be undertaken before preparing an EA and FONSI, the Chief, Environmental Management will
consult with the MDA EE about alternative arrangements for NEPA compliance. The EE may grant emergency alternative arrangements that meet the intent of NEPA, to the extent possible. To the maximum extent practical, these alternative arrangements will ensure public notification and involvement. They will focus on minimizing the adverse environmental consequences of the MDA response action and emergency. Any alternative arrangements must be documented. The Chief, Environmental Management will
inform the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) of these arrangements at the earliest opportunity. (4) If the responsible official proposes emergency actions other than those in paragraph (b)(1) and those actions are likely to have significant environmental impacts, then the Chief, Environmental Management must consult with CEQ about alternative arrangements in accordance with CEQ regulations at 40 CFR 1506.11 as soon as possible.

(c) Categorical Exclusions (CATEXs). These are categories of Agency actions (listed in Appendix B) that MDA has determined do not individually or cumulatively have a significant impact on the human environment. MDA may use CATEXs for a proposed action when there are no extraordinary
circumstances that warrant further analysis in an EA or EIS.

MDA will document designated CATEXs in writing using a REC (Appendix C). An MDA REC is a signed statement submitted with project documentation that concisely
documents that an MDA action has
received environmental review. The REC briefly describes the proposed action and time period, identifies the MDA proponent and approving official(s), addresses the use of screening criteria, and demonstrates that
a review was conducted to ensure that no extraordinary circumstances indicate the need for further analysis. Qualifications for a CATEX are
described later in this section.

(d) Environmental Assessment (EA). Proposed MDA actions not covered in the first three categories must be analyzed to determine their potential
environmental effects. An EA is used to determine whether to prepare an EIS or a FONSI (40 CFR 1501.4 and 1508.9); however, MDA is not required to prepare an EA if we have decided to prepare an EIS. (See 40 CFR 1501.3(a)). The requirements for the EA are addressed later in these procedures.

(e) Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). When a proposed action has the potential for significant impacts or when an EA cannot support a FONSI, an EIS will be prepared (40 CFR 1501.4). An EIS is initiated by the notice of intent (NOI) and examines the potential significant environmental effects of the proposed action plus measures to mitigate those impacts. This process requires formal interaction with the public, a formal scoping process, specified timelines for public review of the documentation, and incorporation of public comments as well as any comments made by Federal, State, local, and tribal agencies. Requirements for
the EIS are addressed later in these procedures.


### 26216 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 88 / Wednesday, May 7, 2014 / Notices

7. CATEX

(a) If the proposed action qualifies as a CATEX and the screening criteria are met, the action can proceed. Appendix B lists MDA’s proposed CATEXs. Appendix C shows an MDA REC form to be used to document designated

CATEXs.

(b) MDA may use a CATEX only when the following screening criteria are met: (1) The proposed action is a Federal action over which we have primary responsibility and, as described in its entirety, is covered by one or more CATEXs listed in Appendix B; (2) the proposed action does not involve any of the extraordinary circumstances described in paragraph (d) below; and (3) the proposed action does not involve using unproven technology that could potentially result in unknown impacts.

(c) Applying a CATEX to an action
does not eliminate the need to meet other statutory or regulatory requirements including general conformity, federally-listed threatened or endangered species or their designated critical habitat, historic and cultural preservation, and safe drinking water requirements or other applicable Federal, state, or local regulatory requirements.

(d) ‘‘Extraordinary circumstances’’arise when a typically categoricallyexcluded action has the reasonable likelihood to result in individually or cumulatively significant impacts on public health, safety, or the environment, based on the specific situation where the CATEX is applied. Extraordinary circumstances that preclude using a CATEX include: (1) A reasonable likelihood the proposed action would result in uncertain, unique, or unknown environmental risks, or is scientifically controversial; (2) a reasonable likelihood the proposed action would establish precedents or
commit MDA to future actions with potential for significant impacts; (3) a reasonable likelihood the proposed action would threaten to violate Federal, state, or local environmental laws; (4) a reasonable likelihood the proposed action would adversely affect environmentally sensitive resources,such as, but not limited to, Federallylisted threatened and endangered species, their designated critical habitat, wilderness areas, floodplains, wetlands, aquifer recharge areas, coastal zones, wild and scenic rivers, and significant fish or wildlife habitat, unless the impact was permitted, mitigated, or addressed through another environmental review process, for example, the Clean Water Act or Coastal Zone Management Act; (5) a reasonable likelihood the proposed action would adversely affect known national natural landmarks, or cultural or historic resources, including, but not limited to, property listed on or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, unless the impact was permitted, mitigated, or addressed through another environmental review process, such as the National Historic Preservation Act; or (6) a reasonable likelihood of causing an increase in surface transportation congestion that would exceed capacity of the supporting infrastructure or otherwise cause significant impacts to
the human environment.

(e) MDA will review its CATEXs at least every seven years to determine whether modifications, additions, or deletions are appropriate, based on our experience and determination that environmental impacts of certain activities are not significant. If MDA acquires new responsibilities through legislation or administrative restructuring, we may propose new or modified CATEXs after gaining sufficient experience with the new
activities to make a reasoned determination that any resulting environmental impacts are not significant. MDA will submit recommendations for modifications, additions, or deletions to CEQ for
informal consultation and discussion.

8. Environmental Assessment (EA)

(a) An EA is a concise public document agencies/services prepare to
inform decision makers and determine if the proposed action has the potential to significantly impact the environment (which then would require the preparation of an EIS). In cases when no potentially significant impact is expected, an agency/service documents
this determination with a FONSI. An EA may be prepared at any time to help agencies/services plan and make decisions. Typical MDA actions normally requiring an EA include: (1)
New construction of facilities that
involves more than five cumulative acres of new surface disturbance; (2) proposed actions that potentially result in significant changes to established land use; or (3) actions substantially altering ongoing MDA operations which could potentially lead directly, indirectly, or cumulatively to substantial environmental impacts.

(b) An EA is prepared to assess the extent of potential environmental impacts resulting from a proposed action and alternatives, and to determine whether or not the impacts are likely to be significant. The EA must include, at a minimum, the following information and analyses: (1) Purpose and need for the proposed action or activity; (2) description of the proposed action; (3) brief discussion of the alternatives considered, including the

‘‘no action’’ alternative and the ‘‘proposed action;’’ (4) brief discussion of the affected environment and region of influence; (5) analysis of the potential environmental impacts of the proposed action and alternatives; (6) list of preparers, agencies and persons consulted; and (7) references.

(c) The analysis of potential environmental impacts (item (b)(5) above) includes an assessment of the direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts that can reasonably be expected from taking the proposed action or reasonable

alternatives. When there are direct or indirect effects on an aspect of the environment from the proposed action,

then MDA must also consider

cumulative effects. Cumulative effects are impacts on the environment resulting from the incremental impact of the action when added to other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future actions. Actions by Federal agencies, non-Federal agencies and private parties must be included when considering cumulative effects, as specified in 40 CFR 1508.7.

(d) The analysis for an EA leads to a

determination to either issue a FONSI or a NOI to prepare an EIS.

(e) MDA should coordinate preparing the EA with other agencies (e.g., Federal, state, local, or tribal governments) when the action involves resources they manage or protect. MDA may invite agencies with jurisdiction by law and with special expertise, to participate as cooperating agencies (40 CFR 1501.6, 1508.5, 1508.15, and 1508.26). Factors for determining whether to invite, decline, or end cooperating agency status are in Attachment 1 of the CEQ Memorandum for Heads of Federal Agencies: Cooperating Agencies in Implementing the Procedural Requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (January 30, 2002).

(f) MDA may request public involvement in preparing the EA or revising or supplementing the EA, or choose to involve the public after the EA is prepared. MDA may use scoping but, would not publish the notice in the FR unless the proposed action was of

national interest. MDA will select the type and format for public involvement to best support on-time and meaningful public input and coordinate it with the host range/installation where applicable.


### 26217 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 88 / Wednesday, May 7, 2014 / Notices

9. Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI)

(a) MDA will prepare a FONSI as specified in 40 CFR 1508.13 to briefly describe why a proposed action will not have a significant effect on the environment and thus will not require

an EIS.

(b) MDA will make the proposed final EA and proposed FONSI available to the affected public, organizations, and individuals requesting them, and to
whomever we have reason to believe is interested in the action through the
various methods outlined in 40 CFR 1506.6 as we deem appropriate. The public, other Federal, tribal, and state agencies and other government entities will be given an opportunity to review and comment on the proposed final EA and unsigned FONSI. The time period for public review will reflect the magnitude of the proposed action and its potential for controversy about environmental effects. A 30-day public review is normal, unless it is unwarranted due to the limited scope of the proposed action and/or lack of potential controversy about
environmental effects. MDA will make EAs and FONSIs available on our public Web site and provide an electronic copy upon request. When MDA determines that it will enhance the opportunity for public review, we will provide hard copies to local public libraries or other public depositories.

(c) After closure of the public review period and considering the comments received, the MDA Environmental
Executive will determine whether to revise the EA, sign the FONSI, start preparing an EIS, or modify or stop considering the proposed action.

(d) MDA will make the final EA and signed FONSI available on our public
Web site.

10. Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)

(a) Classes of activities that normally require an EIS (40 CFR 1501.4) are: (1) Construction and operations of a major new deployment site or test range, and (2) development, testing and employment of a major new missile defense technology with unknown or potentially significant effects on the

environment.

(b) A draft and final EIS will include: (1) The purpose and need for the proposed action and reasonable alternatives (as specified in 40 CFR 1502.13); (2) reasonable alternatives, including the preferred alternative and no-action alternative and designation of the preferred alternative (as specified in 40 CFR 1502.14); (3) the environment affected or created by the alternatives (as specified in 40 CFR 1502.15); (4) the probable environmental impacts from alternatives including the proposed action and measures (if any) to minimize impacts (as specified in 40 CFR 1502.16); and (5) a list of the major preparers of the EIS (as specified in 40 CFR 1502.17). EIS scope and detail should be reasonably related to the scope and the probable environmental impacts of the proposed action and alternative actions (40 CFR part 1502).

(c) Once MDA decides to prepare an EIS, we will start scoping (as specified in 40 CFR 1501.7). During scoping, participants help identify the range of actions, alternatives and impacts to consider (40 CFR 1508.25). MDA will invite affected agencies and interested persons to help determine the significant issues and alternatives to be addressed. The scoping phase of the NEPA process, as part of project planning, will include identifying aspects of the proposal that may have a significant effect or involve controversy concerning environmental effects. Scoping will ensure the NEPA analyses
are useful for the decision maker.

(d) As soon as practical after deciding to prepare an EIS and before scoping, MDA will publish a notice of intent (NOI) to prepare an EIS in the FR (as specified in 40 CFR 1501.7). This NOI (as specified in 40 CFR 1508.22) will describe the purpose and need for the proposed action, and any reasonable alternatives and potential environmental impacts associated with the action that are available at this early stage of the NEPA process. Those impacts that tentatively are determined not to be significant and not warrant discussion in detail in the EIS may be identified. If a public scoping meeting will be held, the notice will state when and where. The NOI will identify the MDA point of contact who can supply
more information about the action and
to whom comments should be sent. There will normally be a public input period of 30 days from the date of publication of the NOI in the FR to allow other interested agencies and the public an opportunity to review and comment. Based on input received, MDA will determine if any additions or modifications to the schedule or scope of the EIS are appropriate. MDA will consider, in scoping the NEPA analysis and developing a draft EIS, the extent to which the greenhouse gas emissions caused by a proposed action should be
estimated and evaluated.

(e) Analyzing potential environmental impacts includes assessing the direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts that can reasonably be expected from taking the proposed action or reasonable
alternatives. When there are direct or indirect effects on an aspect of the environment, then MDA must also
consider cumulative effects. Cumulative effects are impacts on the environment resulting from the incremental impact of the action when added to other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future actions. Actions by Federal and non-federal agencies and private parties must be included when considering cumulative effects (as specified in 40 CFR 1508.7).

(f) MDA should coordinate preparing the EIS with other agencies when the action involves resources they manage or protect. MDA generally will invite those agencies with jurisdiction by law to participate as cooperating agencies. MDA may also invite them if they lack such jurisdiction, in addition to other agencies with special expertise, as cooperating agencies (40 CFR 1501.6 and 1508.5). Factors for determining whether to invite, decline, or end cooperating agency status are in Attachment 1 of the CEQ Memorandum for Heads of Federal Agencies: Cooperating Agencies in Implementing the Procedural Requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (January 30, 2002).

10.1 Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS)

(a) MDA will prepare a draft environmental impact statement (DEIS) (as specified in 40 CFR 1502.9) in the format recommended in the CEQ regulations at 40 CFR 1502.10 unless there is a compelling reason to use
another format.

(b) MDA will electronically file the
DEIS with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and request comments from any Federal agency that has jurisdiction by law, the public, native American tribes, or other interested Federal, state, and local agencies (as specified in 40 CFR 1503.1). MDA will provide a minimum of 45 days for public comment on the DIES. The comment period will begin on the day of publication of the EPA-issued Notice of Availability (NOA) in the FR (40 CFR 1506.10).

10.2 Final Environmental Impact Statements (FEIS)

After MDA internal approval, we will circulate the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) (as specified in 40 CFR 1502.19). MDA will transmit the FEIS to every person, organization, or agency
from which we received substantive
comments on the draft and file the FEIS electronically with the EPA (40 CFR 1506.9).


### 26218 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 88 / Wednesday, May 7, 2014 / Notices

11. Record of Decision (ROD)

(a) After filing the FEIS with the EPA, a ROD will be prepared (as specified in 40 CFR 1505.2) unless MDA announces that we are withdrawing the proposed

action.

(b) MDA will make the ROD available on the MDA public Web site. MDA will
also make the ROD available to the public through the various methods outlined in 40 CFR 1506.6, as appropriate.

(c) An action for which an EIS was approved will not start until: (1) 30 days
after the EPA-issued notice of availability (NOA) that the final EIS was published in the FR; or (2) 90 days after the DEIS NOA was published in the FR by the EPA, whichever provides the public with the most notice.

12. Memorandum for Record (MFR)

When MDA reviews actions covered in an existing EA or EIS that we prepared, we may write a memorandum for record (MFR) to document that review. When MDA is a cooperating agency in preparing an EIS, we may adopt the lead agency’s EIS without recirculating the EIS as a draft or as a final EIS. MDA may do this when, after an independent review, we conclude
and document in an MFR that the lead agency adequately addressed the adopting agency’s comments and suggestions. Similarly, when MDA is a cooperating agency in preparing an EA, we may adopt the EA without recirculating the EA when, after an independent review, we conclude and
document in an MFR that the lead agency adequately addressed the adopting agency’s comments and suggestions (CEQ Guidance
Memorandum for Heads of Federal Department and Agencies: Improving the Process for Preparing Efficient and Timely Environmental Reviews under the National Environmental Policy Act, March 6, 2012; 40 CFR 1506.3).

13. Administrative Record

MDA must maintain the
administrative record for the environmental analysis performed. The
administrative record must be retained by MDA for seven years after completing the action, unless the action involves controversy concerning
environmental effects or is of a nature that warrants keeping it longer. The
administrative record includes all supporting documents and information
used to make the decision. This administrative record should include, but is not limited to: (1) Maps and or documents relevant to developing an EA or EIS; (2) formal communication by a consulting or coordinating agency office; (3) studies and inventories of affected environmental resources; (4) correspondence with regulatory agencies; (5) correspondence with and comments from, private citizens, tribes, local governments, and other individuals and agencies contacted during public involvement; and (6) confirmation of publications and transcripts of any public hearing. MDA will prepare and maintain an index or
table of contents for the administrative
record.

14. Mitigation and Monitoring

(a) MDA will indicate whether mitigation measures (as described in 40 CFR 1508.20) will be implemented for
the alternative selected in either the FONSI or ROD, what commitments MDA considered and selected, and who will be responsible for implementing, funding, and monitoring the mitigation

measures.

(b) Where possible and appropriate because of amount, MDA will include the cost of mitigation as a line item in the budget for a proposed project. Upon request, MDA will also make the results of mitigation monitoring available to the public.

(c) MDA may ‘‘mitigate to insignificance’’ potentially significant environmental impacts found during preparation of an EA, instead of preparing an EIS. The FONSI for the EA will include these mitigation measures, which will be carried out as the project is implemented. If, for any reason, MDA
later abandons or does not meet the mitigation commitments upon which the FONSI relied, we will prepare a supplemental environmental document before continuing the project. If potentially significant environmental impacts might result from any project revisions, MDA will prepare an EIS if
we used an EA for the decision to proceed, or we will prepare a supplemental EIS, if we used an EIS for the decision to proceed.

15. Supplemental EAs or EISs

(a) MDA will prepare a supplement to
an EA or EIS in accordance with 40 CFR 1502.9(c), when there are substantial or significant new circumstances or information related to the proposed action, or to the environmental concerns of the proposed actions, which bear on the proposed action or its impacts. MDA may also prepare a supplement when the purposes of NEPA will be furthered by doing so.

(b) MDA prepares supplemental documents following the same general process as the original EA or EIS. No new scoping is required for a supplemental EIS; however, we may choose to conduct scoping (40 CFR 1502.9(c)(4)).

(c) When a supplemental EA or EIS is prepared, MDA will issue a new FONSI or ROD as appropriate.

16. Cooperating Agencies

When MDA is the lead agency (40 CFR 1501.5), we will invite Federal agencies with jurisdiction by law to serve as cooperating agencies. MDA may invite Federal, tribal, state and local agencies with special expertise to serve as cooperating agencies. The roles of lead and cooperating agencies are found in 40 CFR 1501.5, 1501.6, and 1508.5, and the definitions of jurisdiction by law and special expertise are found at
40 CFR 1508.15 and 1508.5.

17. Adoption of EA or EIS

The MDA may adopt an EA or EIS, or portion thereof, prepared by another agency where the MDA proposed action is substantially the same as the action described in the EA, in accordance with CEQ Guidance Memorandum for Heads of Federal Departments and Agencies: Improving the Process for Preparing Efficient and Timely Environmental
Reviews under the National Environmental Policy Act, March 6, 2012, or EIS, in accordance with 40 CFR 1506.3(b). MDA will independently
review the EA or EIS and determine whether it is current, satisfies the requirements of NEPA, and covers the proposed action. If the actions covered by the original NEPA analysis and the MDA proposed action are substantially the same, and MDA was not a cooperating agency, then we will reissue
the EA or EIS as a final document and prepare its own FONSI or ROD, as appropriate.

18. Incorporation by Reference

MDA will incorporate material by reference to reduce paperwork and bulk. MDA will incorporate previous NEPA analyses or relevant material in an EA or EIS by citing and briefly describing the material, and ensuring that any material incorporated by reference will be made reasonably available for inspection by potentially interested persons within the time allowed for comment either in the EA, EIS, or on our Web site as specified in 40 CFR

1502.21.

19. Tiering

MDA will use tiered environmental documents to eliminate repetitive
discussions of the same issues and to focus on those issues relating to specific MDA actions (40 CFR 1502.20 and 1508.28). If MDA adopts another


### 26219 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 88 / Wednesday, May 7, 2014 / Notices

Federal agency’s environmental document, we may also tier our subsequent MDA environmental documents from the adopted document.

20. Classified Actions

(a) Classification of an action for national security does not relieve MDA from the requirements of NEPA. MDA will prepare, safeguard, and disseminate
NEPA documents in accordance with MDA and DoD requirements for classified information (i.e., MDA
Manual 5200.02–M ‘‘Information Security Program,’’ DoD Manual 5200.01 ‘‘DoD Information Security Program,’’ or current issuance).

(b) In accordance with DoD and MDA Security Policy, NEPA documents that
include classified information/actions
will be written so that the classified
information/actions are included in separate appendix(es) so that the unclassified portions of the documents can be made available to the public.

(c) When classified information is such an integral part of the analysis of a proposal that MDA cannot produce a meaningful unclassified NEPA analysis, the MDA proponent, in consultation with the appropriate environmental offices, will form a team to review the classified NEPA analysis. This team will include environmental professionals to
ensure the consideration of
environmental effects is consistent with the letter and intent of NEPA, including public participation requirements for unclassified aspects.

21. Actions Occurring on Host Installations or Ranges

MDA as a tenant will work with the host agency/service to fulfill MDA and the host’s implementing regulations (or procedures) and guidance in complying
with NEPA and related Executive Orders. The specific requirements of the agency/service making a decision supported by the NEPA analysis and documentation will apply. If multiple agencies will use the NEPA analysis and documentation, then the process followed in developing it will comply with the most stringent requirement in the respective NEPA implementing procedures and regulations.
