Intent To Prepare an Environmental 

Impact Statement for the Combined 

Operational Plan, Broward, MiamiDade Counties, Florida 

AGENCY: Department of the Army, U.S. 

Army Corps of Engineers, DOD. 

ACTION: Notice of intent. 

SUMMARY: The Jacksonville District, U.S. 

Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) is 

beginning preparation of a National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) 

assessment for the Combined 

Operational Plan (COP). The purpose of 

the COP is to define operations for the 

constructed features of the Modified 

Water Deliveries to Everglades National 

Park (MWD) and Canal 111 (C–111) 

South Dade Projects, while maintaining 

the congressionally authorized purposes 

of the Central and Southern Florida 

(C&SF) Project to include flood control; 

water supply for agricultural irrigation, 

municipalities and industry; regional 

groundwater control and prevention of 

saltwater intrusion; enhancement of fish 

and wildlife; and recreation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

a. The COP will result in a 

comprehensive integrated water control 

plan for the operation of water 

management infrastructure associated 

with the MWD and C–111 South Dade 

Projects in Miami Dade County, Florida. 

Development of the COP will be 

informed by a series of operational field 

tests previously conducted under the 

authority of the MWD Project that 

include incremental increases in water 

delivered from Water Conservation Area 

3 (WCA 3) to Everglades National Park 

(ENP). Information gained from water 

management actions taken by the Corps 

in response to unseasonable high water 

levels within the WCAs in 2016 and 

2017 will also be utilized to inform 

development of the COP. 

b. Implementation of the COP is 

anticipated to increase the availability 

of water deliveries from WCA 3A to 

ENP through Northeast Shark River 

Slough and improve hydrologic 

conditions in Taylor Slough, the Rocky 

Glades, and the eastern panhandle of 

ENP.

c. Water management operating 

criteria defined during development of 

the COP will be incorporated into the 

2012 WCAs, ENP, and ENP to South 

Dade Conveyance system Water Control 

Plan following completion of NEPA. 

d. A scoping letter will be used to 

invite comments from Federal, State, 

and local agencies, affected Indian 

tribes, and other interested private 

organizations and individuals. 

e. All alternative plans will be 

reviewed under provisions of 

appropriate laws and regulations, 

including the Endangered Species Act, 

Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, 

Clean Water Act, and Farmland 

Protection Policy Act.

Department of the Army, U.S. Army

Notice of Intent To Prepare an 

Integrated Environmental Impact 

Statement for the Lower Columbia 

River Federal Navigation Channel 

Maintenance Plan 

AGENCY: Department of the Army, U.S. 

Army Corps of Engineers, DoD. 

ACTION: Notice of intent. 

SUMMARY: The Portland District, U.S. 

Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) 

intends to prepare an integrated 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) 

and Federal Navigation Channel (FNC) 

Maintenance Plan, hereafter referred to 

as the Plan. The purpose of this Plan is 

to ensure the continued maintenance of 

the 43-foot deep Lower Columbia River 

FNC for the next 20 years. The Port of 

Longview, Port of Kalama, Port of 

Woodland, Port of Vancouver, and the 

Port of Portland (collectively the 

Sponsor Ports) are non-federal sponsors 

of the project, who will have Oregon 

and Washington State permitting 

requirements to execute on the Plan. 

The Corps will serve as the lead federal 

agency for purposes of the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The 

Sponsor Ports will serve as cooperating 

agencies for purposes of NEPA. The 

Washington ports’ activities in support 

of the proposed project will be subject 

to environmental review under chapter 

43.21C Revised Code of Washington 

(RCW), the Washington State 

Environmental Policy Act (SEPA). The 

Washington Sponsor Ports will be colead agencies under SEPA, and the Port 

of Longview will serve as the nominal 

SEPA lead agency for purposes of SEPA 

compliance. To satisfy the requirements 

of NEPA and SEPA, the Corps and 

Sponsor Ports will be jointly preparing 

an integrated EIS for the Plan. 

DATES: Written comments for 

consideration in the development of the 

scope of the joint NEPA/SEPA EIS are 

due to the addresses below no later than 

Thursday, November 16, 2017. 

Comments may also be made at the 

public scoping meetings listed in this 

notice. Additional information related 

to the public scoping process will be 

provided through advertisements placed 

in regional newspapers of general 

circulation, Public Notice, and on the 

project Web site at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Project Background. The Lower 

Columbia River FNC project includes a 

main channel that is 43 feet deep and 

generally 600 feet wide, and extends 

upstream of the Mouth of Columbia 

River, River Mile (RM) 3 to Vancouver, 

WA, RM 105.5. The FNC also extends 

into lower Oregon Slough and includes 

vessel turning basins at Astoria in 

Oregon and Longview, Kalama, and 

Vancouver in Washington. The FNC is 

maintained using a combination of 

dredging and hydraulic control works 

(pile dikes). Advanced maintenance 

dredging is currently approved up to 5 

feet below authorized depth (¥48 feet) 

and up to 100 feet outside the 

authorized channel width. For the past 

several years, dredging 6 to 8 million 

cubic yards of localized sand shoals has 

been required annually to provide 

reliable service for deep-draft 

navigation. The Corps’ policy requires 

all federally maintained navigation 

projects to demonstrate that there is 

sufficient dredged material placement 

capacity for a minimum of 20 years. An 

updated Plan for the Lower Columbia 

River FNC is needed now because the 

existing dredged material placement 

network is nearing capacity and, if 

insufficient capacity exists, navigation 

maintenance dredging may be 

negatively affected. Non-federal project 

sponsors for the Lower Columbia River 

FNC include the Port of Portland 

individually and as representative of the 

Port of St. Helens in Oregon, and the 

Port of Longview, the Port of Kalama, 

the Port of Woodland, and the Port of 

Vancouver in Washington. These ports 

are stakeholders in the channel depth 

maintenance of the Columbia River. 

Maintenance of the channel depth is 

necessary for the ports’ and other 

channel users’ continued industrial 

economic development and trade 

promotion. In 2015, the Lower 

Columbia River FNC was used to 

transport nearly 55 million tons of cargo 

valued at $22 billion. Vessels drafting 

the full authorized channel depth of 43 

feet carried approximately 11 million 

tons of export shipments worth nearly 

$3 billion in 2015. Tonnage amounts 

refer to Corps Waterborne Commerce 

Statistics Center (WCSC) data for the 

Columbia & Lower Willamette Rivers 

below Vancouver, WA, and Portland, 

OR, Waterway as processed by the 

Corps Channel Portfolio Tool (CPT). 

Cargo values are estimated by the CPT 

based on the WCSC tonnage amounts 

multiplied by national average 

commodity unit price ($ per ton) data 

derived from USA Trade Online 

(https://usatrade.census.gov/). 

Proposed Project. The Corps will 

develop the subject Plan in accordance 

with the procedures for a dredged 

material management plan in 

Engineering Regulation 1105–2–100, 

which governs Corps project 

formulation, evaluation, and 

implementation. As a dredged material 

management plan, it will ensure 

warranted and environmentally 

acceptable maintenance of the 43-foot 

Lower Columbia River FNC for the next 

20 years. Specifically, the Plan will be 

designed to facilitate efficient 

management of dredged material, 

accounting for variability of shoaling 

processes, to provide a reliable channel 

for deep-draft navigation. The Plan will 

describe the results of investigations 

and analyses used to make 

determinations as to current and 

forecasted dredging needs and material 

placement capacity, potential additional
