BILLING CODE 5001–06–P 

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE 

Department of the Army, Corps of 

Engineers 

Intent To Prepare a Draft NEPA 

Document for the Upper St. Anthony 

Falls Lock and Dam, Lower St. 

Anthony Falls Lock and Dam, and Lock 

and Dam 1 Disposition Study, 

Hennepin and Ramsey Counties, 

Minnesota 

AGENCY: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 

DoD. 

ACTION: Notice of intent to initiate 

public scoping and prepare an 

Environmental Assessment (EA). 

SUMMARY: The St. Paul District, Army 

Corps of Engineers (MVP) is conducting 

a study regarding the disposition of the 

Upper St. Anthony Falls Lock and Dam, 

Lower St. Anthony Falls Lock and Dam, 

and Lock and Dam 1 located in the 

Upper Mississippi River, Hennepin and 

Ramsey Counties, Minnesota. The study 

will include an environmental 

assessment and consider opportunities 

regarding deauthorization and disposal 

of any or all of the three lock and dam 

sites. The study will evaluate two 

primary alternatives: (1) No action; and, 

(2) deauthorization by Congress of the 

Federal missions at the sites and 

disposal according to Federal law. 

Deauthorization would include portions 

of the Mississippi River 9-foot 

navigation channel and the lands and 

structures associated with each lock and 

dam site. It is anticipated that a draft 

report of the integrated Disposition 

Study and Environmental Assessment 

(EA) will be available for a 30-day 

public comment period in the Spring of 

2019. The St. Paul District of the Army 

Corps of Engineers is soliciting public 

comments on the proposed study, 

potential interest in future ownership if 

disposal of the properties is warranted, 

and substantive issues that should be 

analyzed in the EA. 

DATES: 

Scoping Meetings: MVP will hold 

public scoping meetings at the following 

times and locations during the scoping 

period: 

D Monday, July 16th from 6:00 p.m. to 

8:00 p.m. at the Mill City Museum, 704 

South Second Street, Minneapolis, 

Minnesota 55401. 

D Tuesday, July 17th from 6:00 p.m. 

to 8:00 p.m. at the Highland Park Senior 

High School Auditorium, 1015 Snelling 

Avenue South, St. Paul, Minnesota, 

55116. 

At the scoping meetings, the public is 

encouraged to submit resource 

information, and identify topics to be 

considered in the development of the 

EA. Written and oral comments will be 

accepted at each meeting. 

Comments: MVP will accept 

comments received or postmarked on or 

before August 20, 2018. Any comments 

that we receive after the closing date 

may not be considered. 

ADDRESSES: Comments may be 

submitted by one of the following 

methods: 

Email—Written comments should be 

sent to: MplsLocksDisposition@

usace.army.mil.

should be sent to: District Engineer, U.S.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The St. 

Paul District, Army Corps of Engineers 

(MVP) operates the Upper St. Anthony 

Falls Lock and Dam (USAF), Lower St. 

Anthony Falls Lock and Dam (LSAF), 

and Lock and Dam No. 1 (L/D 1), 

located on the Mississippi River in 

Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota. 

MVP also maintains the navigation 

channel in proximity to these dams 

which involves periodic dredging. 

Section 2010 of the Water Resources 

Reform and Development Act of 2014 

(WRRDA 2014), dated 10 June 2014, 

directed that USAF be closed within 

one year of the date of enactment of the 

Act, but did not deauthorize USAF. 

Prior to the closure of USAF, the three 

locks operated as a system to support 

navigation on the upper reaches of the 

Mississippi River 9-foot navigation 

channel. With the lock at USAF now 

closed to navigation, the demand for 

both commercial and recreational 

lockage has decreased due to the 

navigational disconnect in the 

Mississippi River at USAF. 

Deauthorization and disposal of one or 

more of the three sites may be warranted 

if the sites are deemed to not be 

fulfilling their authorized purposes. 

Deauthorization would also preclude 

maintenance activities of the navigation 

channel in proximity to these dams. The 

current authorized purposes are 

navigation and recreation. 

Section 216 of the Flood Control Act 

of 1970 authorizes the Secretary of the 

Army to review operations of completed 

projects, when found advisable due to 

changed physical, economic, or 

environmental conditions. Disposition 

studies are a specific type of Section 216 

study with the intent to determine 

whether a water resources development 

project operated and maintained by the 

Corps of Engineers should be 

deauthorized and the associated real 

property and Government-owned 

improvements disposed of. An Initial 

Appraisal (IA) was conducted by the 

Corps in 2015 to determine if conditions 

exist which may warrant further 

analysis on a completed project as 

authorized by Section 216. The IA 

recommended investigation under this 

authority regarding the future use or 

disposition of USAF, LSAF, and L/D 1. 

The purpose of the Disposition Study 

is to determine what federal interest 

exists to retain USAF, LSAF, and/or 

L/D 1 for its authorized purpose(s) 

based on an evaluation and comparison 

of the benefits, costs, and impacts 

(positive and negative) of continued 

operation, maintenance, repair, 

replacement, and rehabilitation, 

compared to the deauthorization and 

disposal of the associated real 

properties. The Disposition Study ends 

when the final report is transmitted to 

the Corps of Engineers’ Headquarters 

Office for review and processing of 

recommendations. Deauthorization 

would require Congressional Approval.
