Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 202 / Friday, October 18, 2024 / Notices 83835 

RUS has carefully studied public 

health and safety, environmental 

impacts, and engineering aspects of the 

proposed project. RUS used input 

provided by government agencies, 

private organizations, and the public in 

the preparation of the Final EIS. RUS 

has considered all comments received 

on the Draft EIS and revised the Final 

EIS accordingly. Following the 45-day 

comment period for the Final EIS, RUS 

may prepare a Record of Decision 

(ROD). A Notice announcing the 

availability of the ROD will be 

published in the Federal Register and in 

local newspapers. Additionally, letters 

and emails will be sent to stakeholders. 

The Final EIS serves as a detailed 

written record of the environmental 

analysis completed for the proposed 

Project and is intended to provide 

Agency officials with sufficient 

information to make a decision 

regarding the significance of the 

environmental impacts of its potential 

federal action. The proposed Project is 

subject to the jurisdiction of the USFS, 

and the FMNF Forest Supervisor will 

use the Final EIS to make decisions 

related to requirements for issuing a 

SUP to Central Electric. Publication of 

this Final EIS is not a decision on the 

Applicant’s loan application and 

therefore not an approval of the 

expenditure of federal funds. Based on 

the analysis disclosed in this Final EIS, 

the RUS decision-maker will determine 

whether to provide financing assistance 

for the Project and, if issued, any 

Project-specific conditions established 

as part of the loan. 

This Notice of Availability also serves 

as a notice of proposed wetland and 

floodplain actions. The proposed Project 

would involve unavoidable impacts to 

wetlands and floodplains. The proposed 

Project was planned to avoid and 

minimize impacts to wetlands and 

waterways to the extent practicable 

during the site selection and design 

phase of the Project. Appropriate 

sediment and erosion controls and best 

management practices would be 

implemented at all wetland/upland and 

streambank boundaries. Impacts to 

wetlands would be permitted in 

accordance with USACE and state 

requirements. The timing of 

construction would integrate time of 

year restrictions and protections for 

sensitive resources and follow permit 

conditions (e.g., time-of-year restrictions 

for T&E species). 

In accordance with section 106 of the 

National Historic Preservation Act and 

its implementing regulation, ‘‘Protection 

of Historic Properties’’ (36 CFR part 800) 

and as part of its broad environmental 

review process, RUS must take into 

account the effect of the proposed 

project on historic properties. In 

coordinating section 106 compliance, 

the RUS is preparing a project specific 

Programmatic Agreement (PA) to govern 

the remaining section 106 process. The 

cultural resource analysis is a resource 

that the public may be interested in 

commenting on during this comment 

period. The draft PA is an appendix to 

the Final EIS. Any final action by RUS 

related to the proposed project will be 

subject to, and contingent upon, 

compliance with all relevant Federal, 

State and local environmental laws and 

regulations, and completion of the 

environmental review requirements as 

prescribed in the RUS Environmental 

Policies and Procedures (7 CFR part 

1970).
