25712 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 86 / Wednesday, May 3, 2000 / Notices

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOE

proposes to convey to the abutting

landowner, an approximate 182-acre

parcel of land within the 500-year

floodplain of the Clinch River, in Roane

County, Tennessee. The conveyed

property would be used as a ‘‘green

space’’ buffer adjacent to a proposed

1,217-acre mixed-use development.

In accordance with DOE regulations

for compliance with floodplain and

wetlands environmental review

requirements (10 CFR part 1022), DOE

will prepare a floodplain and wetlands

assessment for this proposed DOE

action. The assessment will be included

in the environmental assessment being

prepared for the proposed project in

accordance with the requirements of the

National Environmental Policy Act. A

floodplain statement of findings will be

published in the Federal Register.

The potentially affected floodplain

property lies along the banks of the

Clinch River and adjoins the property

presently identified as the Boeing

property in Roane County, Tennessee.

The property is situated across the

Clinch River from the DOE’s East

Tennessee Technology Park (formerly

known as the K–25 Site). In 1987,

Boeing acquired the 1,217-acre property

from the City of Oak Ridge, who had

previously acquired the property from

DOE on the same date. A tentative

purchaser of the property proposes to

develop lots for single-family homes,

areas for apartments and

condominiums, a hotel and conference

center, a golf course, and a shopping

district. About 500 acres of the site

would be reserved for industrial

purposes.

To provide a buffer and ‘‘green space’’

around the development, the proposed

purchaser is also seeking to acquire title

to the floodplain property under the

jurisdictional control of DOE. The DOE

Oak Ridge Operations Office would

convey the property to whomever the

owner of the Boeing parcel is at the time

the excess parcel is ready for

conveyance providing environmental or

administrative considerations do not

preclude such conveyance. In February

2000, the Oak Ridge City Council voted

to rezone the Boeing site for mixed-use

development.

Issued in Oak Ridge, Tennessee on April

24, 2000.

sponsored two informal settlement

conferences for the purpose of initiating

settlement discussions potentially

leading to a resolution of all the Kansas

agreed that settlement negotiations

among all interested parties should be

pursued separately for each pipeline

upon should be noticed by the Secretary

process. The participants also agreed

that, as with the previous two

settlement conferences, the Director of

the Commission’s Dispute Resolution

conference and facilitate the settlement

negotiations.

The informal settlement conference

will be held on May 23, 2000, at the

offices of Shook, Hardy & Bacon, 1

Kansas City Place, 1200 Main Street,

begin at 10:00 a.m. To insure that the

facilities are adequately sized all parties

that plan to attend the settlement

conference are requested to contact John

McNish at 785–271–3218 or by email at
