SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Farm 

Service Agency announces the 

availability of the draft Programmatic 

Environmental Assessment (PEA) for 

the 2005 Hurricane TAP, authorized by 

the Emergency Agricultural Disaster 

Assistance Act (Pub. L. 109–234, section 

3021), the goal of which is to reimburse 

eligible producers of eligible tree crops 

for certain costs associated with 

reestablishing crops lost because of the 

hurricanes of 2005. TAP will be 

implemented in counties declared 

disasters as a result of the 2005 

hurricanes in the following states: 

Arkansas, Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, 

North Carolina, Mississippi, South 

Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas. In 

consideration of the analysis 

documented in the PEA, the program 

would not constitute a major State or 

Federal action that would significantly 

affect the human environment. 

Therefore, an Environmental Impact 

Statement will not be prepared. 

The regulations promulgating the 

2005 Hurricane TAP were published in 

the Federal Register on February 12, 

2007 (72 FR 6435), along with the 

provision that no benefit shall be paid 

under the program until FSA has 

completed the PEA and issued a 

decision document. The draft PEA 

assesses the potential environmental 

impacts of alternatives to be considered 

in the administration of the 2005 TAP. 

The draft PEA also provides a means for 

the public to voice any concerns they 

may have about the program and any 

ideas for improving it. This Notice of 

Availability informs the public of the 

availability of the draft PEA and solicits 

public comment. 

Signed in Washington DC on April 4, 2007.

Acting Administrator, Farm Service Agency.
