the Cedar River with Lake Washington

at its present location. Formerly, the

Cedar River drained via the Black River

into Elliott Bay. The channel has been

subject to infrequent dredging by the

City of Renton for flood control over the

subsequent years. The proposed action

will provide a long-term modification to

the channel to prevent sedimentation of

the channel and provide increased flood

conveyance.

Alternatives

The Corps has identified four

alternative courses of action for

analysis:

(1) No action. Allow the river channel

to continue to evolve as it has been with

increased sedimentation from upstream

sources.

(2) Construct a sediment retention

trap and levees along the river banks

from the Logan Street bridge to the river

mouth.

(3) Construct a sediment retention

trap and dredge the existing channel to

a uniform slope from Logan Street to the

mouth.

(4) Construct a sediment retention

trap and widen the channel to 250 feet

from Logan Street to the river mouth.

Additionally, dredge the channel to

create a uniform slope from Logan Street

to the mouth.

Alternatives 2, 3, and 4 would need

to have modifications made to the South

Boeing bridge for increased flood

conveyance. Also, alternatives 3 and 4

would need small levees placed at low

points along the banks.

Scoping and Public Involvement

Public involvement will be sought

during scoping and preparation of the

EIS in accordance with NEPA

procedures. A public scoping process

has been started to clarify issues of

major concern, identify any information

sources that might be available to

analyze and evaluate impacts, and

obtain public input on the range and

acceptability of alternatives. This Notice

of Intent formally commences the

scoping process under NEPA. As part of

the scoping process, all affected Federal,

State and local agencies, Indian Tribes,

and other interested private

organizations, including environmental

groups, are invited to comment on the

scope of the EIS. Comments are

requested concerning project

alternatives, mitigation measures,

probable significant environmental

impacts, and permits or other approvals

that may be required.

The following key areas have been

identified to be analyzed in depth in the

draft EIS:

(1) Flooding Characteristics

(2) Channel Sedimentation Rates

(3) Water Quality

(4) Fisheries

(5) Wildlife

(6) Wetlands

(7) Socioeconomic Resources

Other Environmental Review and

Coordination Requirements

All review and coordination

requirements will be fulfilled via this

NEPA process.

Scoping Meeting

A scoping meeting will be scheduled

for mid-June, 1995. Details of the

meeting time and location will be

announced in local media. Notices will

be sent to all agencies, organizations

and individuals on the EIS mailing list.

Availability of Draft EIS

The Corps expects to complete the

draft EIS by April, 1996.

Dated: May 15, 1995.

Notice of Availability

SUMMARY: This announces the notice of

availability of the DEIS on the potential

impact of the construction and

operation of the proposed chemical

agent demilitarization facility at Pine

Bluff Arsenal, Arkansas. The proposed

facility will be used to demilitarize all

stockpiled chemical agents and

munitions currently stored at Pine Bluff

Arsenal. The DEIS examines the

potential impacts of on-site

incineration, alternative sites within

Pine Bluff Arsenal and the ‘‘no action’’

alternative. The ‘‘no action’’ alternative

is considered to be a deferral of the

demilitarization with continued storage

of agents and munitions at Pine Bluff

Arsenal.

In its Record of Decision on February

26, 1988 (53 FR 5816, February 26,

1988) for the Final Programmatic

Environmental Impact Statement on the

Chemical Stockpile Disposal Program

(CSDP), the Department of the Army

selected on-site disposal by incineration

at all eight chemical munition storage

sites within the continental United

States as the method by which it will

destroy its lethal chemical stockpile. On

March 29, 1989, the Department of the

Army published a Notice of Intent in the

Federal Register which provided notice

that, pursuant to the National

Environmental Policy Act and

implementing regulations, it would

prepare a draft site-specific EIS for the

Pine Bluff chemical munitions disposal

facility. The Department of the Army

prepared a DEIS to assess the sitespecific health and environmental

impacts of on-site incineration of

chemical agents and munitions stored at

the Pine Bluff Arsenal. Comments on

the DEIS will be included in the FEIS

and considered by the Army in its

Record of Decision. The Army will meet

with the public during the comment

period to discuss the DEIS. Details of

the meeting will be announced at a

future date. The DEIS for Pine Bluff

Arsenal is now available and comments

may be delivered to the address below:

Department of the Navy

Record of Decision for the Lease of

Fleet and Industrial Supply Center

Property to the Port of Oakland for

Development of Intermodal Rail

Facilities and Maritime Cargo-Related

Tenant Uses at Oakland, CA

Pursuant to section 102(2) of the

National Environmental Policy Act

(NEPA) of 1969 and the Council on

Environmental Quality Regulations on

Implementing NEPA Procedures (40

CFR 1500–1508), the Department of the

Navy announces its decision to

implement the preferred alternative

presented in the Final Environmental

Impact Report/Environmental Impact

Statement (FEIR/EIS) for the Lease of

Fleet and Industrial Supply Center

property to the Port of Oakland for

development of intermodal rail facilities

and maritime-related tenant uses at

Oakland, California. This decision

fulfills Navy responsibility in

compliance with NEPA process. The

Port of Oakland will make its decision

in compliance with the California

Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

In response to 10 U.S.C. 2667 and

Public Law 102–484 (Section 2834(b)) of

the Fiscal Year 1993 Defense

Authorization Act, as amended, the

Navy is authorized to lease to the Port

of Oakland, real property, together with

improvements thereon, at the Fleet and

Industrial Supply Center, Oakland

(FISCO), Alameda County, California.

The action is granting of a lease of up

to 220 acres of the FISC Oakland

property to the Port of Oakland for

expansion of their existing intermodal

rail facilities and maritime-related

tenant activities. In addition, the

proposed development includes another

87 acres of the Port of Oakland’s and

Union Pacific Railroad’s properties

directly south of the Supply Center. The

Port of Oakland proposes to establish

maritime and transportation activities

and to redevelop the site for port

operations in support of the Oakland

Harbor Area.

The 307 total acres have been divided

into six areas for planning purposes.

Development of Area A (83 acres of the

Center) would include demolition of

most of the existing facilities and

construction of new intermodal

railtracks and associated appurtenances,

such as straddle carrier runways and

container staging support areas.

Development of Area B (40 acres of the

Center) would include demolition of

existing facilities and construction of

new container transfer and storage areas

and a transloading facility. The

transloading facility would be a narrow,

dock-high platform with rail tracks on

one side and truck spaces on the other

side. Development of Area C (67 acres

of the Center) would include demolition

of some existing facilities, construction

of an entrance for the intermodal rail

facility (including a gatehouse and

maintenance and repair building) and

maintenance of existing warehouses for

continued warehousing and/or

distribution uses. Development of Areas

D and E (87 acres of Port and Union

Pacific Railroad properties) would

include demolition of existing facilities

and construction of a new terminal

expansion area to be used for

development of Area F (20 to 30 acres

of the Center) may be included in the

lease, depending on the results of

discussions between the Port of Oakland

and the Center. If the agreement is

reached, the additional area would be

used for warehousing and/or

distribution.

The alternatives, including the

preferred alternative, may be

categorized as four development

alternatives and the ‘‘no action’’

alternative. The development

alternatives vary from extensive
