Pressurized Irrigation Delivery System;

AGENCY: Natural Resources 

Conservation Service, USDA. 

ACTION: Notice of a Finding of No 

Significant Impact. 

SUMMARY: Pursuant to Section 102(2)(C) 

of the National Environmental Policy 

Act of 1969; the Council on 

Environmental Quality Guidelines (40 

CFR Part 1500); and the Natural 

Resources Conservation Service 

Guidelines (7 CFR Part 650); the Natural 

Resources Conservation Service, U.S. 

Department of Agriculture, gives notice 

that an environmental impact statement 

is not being prepared for the Marysville 

Irrigation Company, Gravity 

Pressurized, Irrigation Delivery System, 

Fremont County, Idaho. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Richard Sims, State Conservationist, 

Natural Resources Conservation Service, 

9173 W. Barnes Dr., Suite C, Boise, 

Idaho 83709–1574, telephone (208) 378–

5700. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Plan/ 

Environmental Assessment of this 

federally assisted action indicates that 

the project will not cause significant 

local, regional, or national adverse 

impacts affecting the quality of the 

human environment. As a result of these 

findings, Richard Sims, State 

Conservationist, has determined that the 

preparation and review of an 

environmental impact statement are not 

needed for this project. 

The Proposed Action consists of 

replacing an open ditch irrigation 

delivery system with buried plastic 

pipelines to distribute gravity 

pressurized irrigation water. The 

Proposed Action includes the 

construction and operation and 

maintenance of three plastic pipelines 

that provide for the delivery of gravity 

pressurized irrigation water to 

approximately 6,130 acres surrounding 

Marysville, Idaho, eliminating most of 

the need for pumping by electric 

motors. Approximately 1,000 acres 

would require booster pumps. Water 

would only be drawn from the pipe 

when irrigation is required, eliminating 

overflow to the Henry’s Fork River. The 

Proposed Action would eliminate about 

90% of the water seepage loss from the 

canals and the need for approximately 

1,600 horsepower from electric pump 

motors while not adversely affecting the 

environment. 

The Notice of Finding of No 

Significant Impact (FONSI) has been 

forwarded to the Environmental 

Protection Agency. The basic data 

developed during the plan/ 

environmental assessment is on file and 

may be reviewed by contacting Mr. 

Richard Sims. The FONSI has been sent 

to various Federal, State, and local 

agencies, and interested parties. A 

limited number of copies of the FONSI
