Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 120 / Thursday, June 21, 2001 / Notices 33227

U.S. Department of Agriculture, gives

notice that an environmental impact

statement is not being prepared for the

Elm Fork Watershed, Multiple-Purpose

Structure (MPS) No. 19, Cooke County,

Texas.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Salvador Salinas, Assistant State

Conservationist (SP&P), Natural

Resources Conservation Service, 101

7682, Telephone (254) 742–9800.

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, John P. Burt, State

Conservationist, has determined that the

preparation and review of an

environmental impact statement is not

needed for this project.

The project will provide municipal

water and recreational activities for the

city of Muenster, Texas and reduce

flooding and improve surface water

quality in and below MPS No. 19. The

environmental assessment addresses the

installation of the Multiple-Purpose

Structure (MPS No. 19) that remains to

be installed.

Installation of the site, including dam,

emergency spillway, and municipal

water pool, will require 359 acres. The

dam and emergency spillway will be

planted to grasses that have wildlife

values. A mitigation plan has been

developed to offset the loss of any

wildlife habitat. The fee title area

needed for the structure will be fenced

to control livestock, therefore greatly

benefiting ground nesting birds. The

structure will affect 185 acres of prime

farmland. Downstream flooding of

wildlife habitat will be reduced. No

endangered plants or animals or their

habitat will be affected. No cultural or

historical properties will be affected.

Multiple-Purpose Structure No. 19

will create 309 acres of aquatic habitat

creating a fisheries resource where none

exists.

Federal assistance will be provided

under authority of Public Law 78–534,

the Flood Control Act of 1944. Total

project costs for Multiple-Purpose

Structure No. 19 is estimated to be

$6,923,687, of which $3,810,525 will be

paid from Public Law 534 funds and

$3,113,162 from local funds.

The notice 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 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

John P. Burt.

No administrative action on

implementation of the proposal will be

taken until 30 days after the date of this

publication in the Federal Register.

Dated: June 8, 2001.
