SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title; Associated Form; and OMB 

Number: Statement of Disposition of 

Military Remains, DD Form X634; 

Disposition of Remains Election 

Statement Initial Notification of 

Identified Partial Remains, DD Form 

X635; Disposition of Remains Election 

Statement Notification of Subsequently

Remains, DD Form X638; Election for 

Air Transportation of Remains of 

Casualties Dying in a Theater of Combat 

Operations, DD Form X639; OMB 

Control Number 0704–XXXX. 

Needs and Uses: The information 

collection requirement is necessary to 

obtain the election (as applicable) of the 

Person Authorized to Direct Disposition 

(PADD) of the remains of the decedent. 

These forms were directed by the 

Secretary of Defense for transparency 

and standardization of the mortuary 

procedures as part of the Final Report of 

the Dover Port Mortuary Independent 

Review Subcommittee Implementation 

Plan and 180-day study. The applicable 

form(s) is included in the individual 

case file of the decedent. 

Affected Public: Business or other for 

profit; Person Authorized to Direct 

Disposition (PADD); family members of 

the deceased. 

Annual Burden Hours: 15. 

Number of Respondents: 60. 

Responses per Respondent: 1. 

Average Burden per Response: 15 

minutes. 

Frequency: On occasion. 

The respondents are the PADD of the 

decedent for whom mortuary services as 

described on the applicable form (DD 

Form X634; DD Form X635; DD Form 

X636; DD Form X637; DD Form X638; 

or DD Form X639) is recommended or 

required, and the witness to that 

election. The PADD documents their 

election, and the PADD and witness 

sign the applicable form to formalize 

this process and document the election 

of the PADD. These forms become a part 

of the Official Individual Deceased 

Personnel File. If the PADD does not 

sign these forms, then the Department 

cannot provide mortuary and 

transportation services to the PADD. 

Currently there is a lack of 

standardization across the Military 

Services, as each Service currently 

utilizes different forms for these 

elections and they do not all capture the 

same information even on similar forms. 

Standardizing the information collected 

is essential in maintaining the 

transparency and integrity of the 

mortuary affairs process.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE 

Office of the Secretary 

Notice of Availability (NOA) of a 

Finding of No Significant Impact 

(FONSI) for the Environmental 

Assessment (EA) Addressing 

Construction and Operation of a 

General Purpose Warehouse and 

Improvement and Operation of Four 

Open Storage Areas at Defense Depot 

Red River, Texas 

AGENCY: Defense Logistics Agency, 

Department of Defense. 

ACTION: Notice of Availability (NOA) of 

a Finding of No Significant Impact 

(FONSI) for the Environmental 

Assessment (EA) Addressing 

Construction and Operation of a General 

Purpose Warehouse and Improvement 

and Operation of Four Open Storage 

Areas at Defense Depot Red River, 

Texas. 

SUMMARY: The Defense Logistics Agency 

(DLA) announces the availability of a 

FONSI for the proposed action to 

construct and operate a general purpose 

warehouse and improve and operate 

four existing, unimproved open storage 

areas at Defense Depot Red River, Texas 

Depot to provide appropriate storage for 

vehicles, parts, and other materiel. This 

action is needed because DLA 

Distribution Red River does not have 

sufficient warehousing and open storage 

space, which leads to the degradation of 

supplies and safety concerns for staff. 

The environmental assessment was 

prepared in accordance with the 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA), (1969), the Council on 

Environmental Quality regulations, 

Army Regulation AR 200–2, and DLA 

Regulation 1000.22. The Draft EA and 

Draft FONSI were made available for a 

30-day public review period, which 

ended on September 22, 2014. The Draft 

EA and Draft FONSI also were sent to 

the Texas Parks and Wildlife 

Department (TPWD) for review under 

the Wildlife Habitat Assessment 

Program. No comments were received 

from the public during the 30-day 

review period. The TPWD commented 

that they do not anticipate significant, 

adverse impacts on threatened and 

endangered species or other fish and 

wildlife resources and concur that an 

Environmental Impact Statement is not 

warranted for the Proposed Action. The 

TPWD recommended removing only the 

minimum amount of vegetation 

necessary to construct the proposed 

GPW and associated infrastructure. The 

FONSI documents the decision of DLA 

to proceed with the proposed action. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ira 

Silverberg at 703–767–0705 during 

normal business hours Monday through 

Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. 

(EDT) or by email: Ira.Silverberg@

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Determination: DLA has determined 

that implementation of the Proposed 

Action will not have a significant effect 

on the human environment. Human 

environment was interpreted 

comprehensively to include the natural 

and physical environment and the 

relationship of people with that 

environment. Specifically, no highly 

uncertain or controversial impacts, 

unique or unknown risks, or 

cumulatively significant effects were 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 16 / Monday, January 26, 2015 / Notices 3959 

identified. Implementation of the 

Proposed Action will not violate any 

Federal, state, or local laws. Based on 

the results of the analyses performed 

during preparation of the EA, David 

Rodriguez, Director, DLA Installation 

Support, concludes that Construction 

and Operation of a General Purpose 

Warehouse and Improvement and 

Operation of Four Open Storage Areas at 

Defense Depot Red River, Texas, does 

not constitute a major Federal action 

significantly affecting the quality of the 

human environment within the context 

of NEPA. Therefore, an environmental 

impact statement for the Proposed 

Action is not required.
