specification, in a consistent, efficient 

and effective manner; life-cycle 

assessment tools that will enable 

sustainable manufacturing; and better 

automation solutions. 

Nanomaterials/nanotechnology: The 

unique properties of nanomaterials 

provide extraordinary promise. There is 

a need for greater understanding and 

solutions to overcome the barriers 

associated with manufacturing 

nanomaterials and their incorporation 

into products, while maintaining the 

unique functionality of the 

nanomaterials. Although many 

processes are achievable in the 

laboratory, the scale-up to industrial 

production without compromising the 

quality of the produced material can be 

highly problematic. 

Examples could include challenges 

such as: Methods required for 

manufacturing nanomaterials with prespecified functionality and morphology; 

methods for inspection and real-time 

monitoring the processing of 

nanomaterials; or methods for 

incorporation of nanomaterials into 

products without compromising the 

material’s required properties. 

Sustainability: ‘‘Sustainability,’’ was 

defined in April 2007 by the United 

Nations Commission on Sustainable 

Development in their ‘‘Framing 

Sustainable Development, The 

Brundtland Report—20 Years On’’ as, 

‘‘meeting the needs of the present 

generation without compromising the 

ability of future generations to meet 

their needs.’’ TIP is interested in 

technologies that have the potential to 

reduce or eliminate the environmental 

footprint of industrial processes and 

public waste streams. Sustainability is a 

complex and highly interdisciplinary 

endeavor with economic, 

environmental, and societal dimensions. 

In this context, the white papers should 

address elements such as cost 

effectiveness, energy efficiency, 

recyclability, safety, resource use, lifecycle analysis, and ecosystem health. 

Examples could include challenges 

such as: Technologies to develop 

feedstocks from renewable sources; 

technologies to recover resources 

(minerals, materials, energy, water) from 

industry and other/public waste 

streams; low-cost, low-energy separation 

technologies; and replacement of 

hazardous/toxic materials with safer, 

more cost-effective materials and/or 

process technology.

Availability of a Draft Environmental 

Impact Statement To Consider 

Issuance of a Department of the Army 

Permit Pursuant to Section 404 of the 

Clean Water Act for the Sabine Mining 

Company’s Proposal To Construct, 

Operate, and Reclaim the Rusk Permit 

Area, Rusk, Panola, and Harrison 

Counties, TX 

AGENCY: Department of the Army, U.S. 

Army Corps of Engineers, DoD. 

ACTION: Notice of availability. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

requirements of the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the 

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) 

Fort Worth District has prepared a Draft 

Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS). 

This DEIS evaluates project alternatives 

and potential impacts to the natural, 

physical and human environment as a 

result of the Sabine Mining Company’s 

proposal to construct, operate and 

reclaim the Rusk Permit Area. The 

USACE regulates this proposed project 

pursuant to Section 10 of the Rivers and 

Harbors Act of 1899 and Section 404 of 

the Clean Water Act. The proposed 

activity would involve the discharge of 

dredged and fill material into waters of 

the United States associated with the 

proposed construction, operation and 

reclamation of the Rusk Permit Area. 

DATES: Submit comments no later than 

60 days from the date of publication of 

this notice. An informal public 

information meeting (open house 

format) regarding this DEIS will be held 

on November 15, 2010, and a formal 

public hearing regarding this DEIS will 

be held on November 16, 2010 (see 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION). 

ADDRESSES: Send written comments and 

suggestions concerning this proposal to 

Mr. Darvin Messer, Regulatory Project 

Manager, Regulatory Branch, CESWF– 

PER–R, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 

Fort Worth District, P.O. Box 17300,

Requests to be placed on the mailing list 

should also be sent to this address. 

Please reference USACE Project No. 

SWF–2007–00560. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

Darvin Messer, Regulatory Project 

Manager at (817) 886–1744 or via email: Darvin.Messer@usace.army.mil. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Discharges 

of fill material into waters of the United 

States are regulated under Section 404 

of the Clean Water Act, with the 

permitting responsibility administered 

by the USACE. The proposed project 

must also address environmental 

impacts relative to the Clean Air Act, 

Clean Water Act, Endangered Species 

Act and the Fish and Wildlife 

Coordination Act (FWCA). In 

accordance with the NEPA, the DEIS 

evaluates practicable alternatives for the 

USACE’s decision making process. As 

required by NEPA, the USACE also 

analyzes the ‘‘no action’’ alternative as a 

baseline for gauging potential impacts. 

As part of the public involvement 

process, notice is hereby given by the 

USACE Fort Worth District of an 

informal public information meeting 

(open house format) to be held at the 

Tatum High School Auxiliary 

Gymnasium, Tatum, TX, from 5 to 7:30 

p.m. on November 15, 2010. This 

meeting will afford interested parties 

the opportunity to engage in a dialog 

with the USACE regarding the EIS 

process and the analyses performed to 

date. The USACE Fort Worth District 

will also be holding a formal public 

hearing to be held at the Tatum High 

School Auditorium, Tatum, TX, from 5 

to 7:30 p.m. on November 16, 2010. The 

public hearing will allow participants 

the opportunity to comment on the DEIS
