Natural Resources Conservation

Service

Marshland Watershed Project;

Marshland Dike: Wallace to Yoshihara:

Snohomish County, WA

AGENCY: Natural Resources

Conservation Service.

ACTION: Notice of availability of a

finding of no significant impact.

SUMMARY: Pursuant to Section 102(2) of

the National Environmental Policy Act

of 1969; the Council on Environmental

Quality Regulations (40 CFR Part 1500);

and the Natural Resources Conservation

Service Regulations (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 Marshland Watershed Project;

Marshland Dike, Wallace to Yoshihara.

Snohomish County, Washington.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 25 / Thursday, February 6, 1997 / Notices 5587

Lynn A. Brown, State Conservationist,

Natural Resources Conservation Service,

West 316 Boone Avenue, Suite 450,

Spokane, Washington 99201, telephone

(509) 353–2337.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

environmental assessment of this

federally assisted action indicates that

the project will not cause significant

local, regional, or national impacts on

the environment. As a result of these

findings, Lynn A. Brown, State

Conservationist, has determined that the

preparation and review of an

environmental impact statement is not

needed for this project.

The project was authorized for

construction in 1962 under the

authority of the Watershed Protection

and Flood Prevention Act (PL 83–566)

as amended and administered by the

USDA, Natural Resources Conservation

Service (NRCS).

The project (Wallace to Yoshihara)

plans to remove the existing,

uncompacted dike and the LowellSnohomish River Road and return the

area to a natural river levee, associated

riparian area, and pasture land. A new

dike is planned for construction away

from the river (off-set) and will be built

with suitable compacted material. The

extent of the dike construction is from

a point near the Wallace property to the

Yoshihara property amounting to 7,966

feet. The designed height of the dike

will be in accordance with the Levee

and Dike System Coordination

Agreement, signed March 13, 1991,

which is part of the Snohomish River

Comprehensive Flood Control

Management Plan, dated December

1991. The agreed to dike height is the

5-year flood frequency level plus one

foot of freeboard. The dike is designed

to withstand overtopping during high

flows in the Snohomish River. The offset dike will leave 12.5 acres exposed to

low level flood waters. Currently, this

area is divided into four parcels having

four different owners. The four parcels

contain six residences and associated

out-buildings. The selected treatment

alternative will require the removal of

these homes and buildings. The

Marshland Flood Control District,

project sponsors, will provide land

rights and/or easements.

The Notice of Availability of a

Finding Of No Significant Impact

(FONSI) has been forwarded to the

Environmental Protection Agency and

to various Federal, State, and local

agencies and interested parties. A

limited number of copies of the FONSI/

Final Environmental Assessment are

available to fill single copy requests at

the above address. Basic data developed

during the environmental assessment

are on file and may be reviewed by

contacting Frank R. Easter, Watershed

Planning Team Leader.

No administrative action on

implementation of the proposal will be

taken until 30 days after the date of this

publication in the Federal Register.

(This activity is listed in the Catalog of

Federal Domestic Assistance under NO.

10.904, Watershed Protection and Flood

Prevention, and is subject to the provisions

of Executive Order 12372, which requires

intergovernmental consultation with State

and local officials.)
