DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE 

Department of the Army, Corps of 

Engineers 

Intent To Prepare a Draft and Final 

Second Supplemental Environmental 

Impact Statement for Reach 1A on the 

Herbert Hoover Dike Major 

Rehabilitation Project, Martin and Palm 

Beach Counties 

AGENCY: Department of the Army, U.S. 

Army Corps of Engineers, DOD. 

ACTION: Notice of intent. 

SUMMARY: The purpose of the project is 

to reconstruct and rehabilitate Reach 1A 

of the Herbert Hoover Dike to prevent 

catastrophic failure of the system to 

retain the waters of Lake Okeechobee. 

On July 8 2005, the Jacksonville District, 

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) 

issued a Final Supplemental 

Environmental Impact Statement 

(FSEIS) for the Major Rehabilitation 

actions proposed for Herbert Hoover 

Dike (HHD), Reach One. Herbert Hoover 

Dike is the levee that completely 

surrounds Lake Okeechobee. On 

September 23, 2005, a Record of 

Decision was signed adopting the 

preferred alternative as the Selected 

Plan for Reach One. 

As plans and specifications were 

developed for Reach 1, it became 

apparent that the cut-off wall with 

seepage berm alternative would not 

work for all of Reach 1. The alternative 

for Reach 1A will be a combination of 

one or more of the following features 

dependent on the geology and adjacent 

land factors with the cut-off wall: 

Seepage Berm, Relief Trench, Soil 

Replacement Wedge, Relief Wells, 

Drainage Feature and Sand Columns. 

Reach 1A of the HHD extends for 

approximately 4.6 miles within Martin 

and Palm Beach Counties, from the St. 

Lucie Canal at Port Mayaca, south to the 

10A culvert. The final full design of the 

cutoff wall and landside rehabilitation 

feature will include lands outside of the 

existing ROW. Therefore it is necessary 

to update the July 2005 SEIS for Reach 

1A to include these new landside 

rehabilitation features and any impacts 

to lands outside of the existing ROW. 

Two separate draft and final SEIS’s will 

be developed for the four Subreaches: 

An SEIS for Subreach 1A will be 

completed first and a second SEIS for
