[Federal Register Volume 59, Number 177 (Wednesday, September 14, 1994)] [Unknown Section] [Page 0] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 94-22655] [[Page Unknown]] [Federal Register: September 14, 1994] VOL. 59, NO. 177 Wednesday, September 14, 1994 DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Soil Conservation Service TE-17, Falgout Canal Demonstration Project AGENCY: Soil Conservation Service. ACTION: Notice of a finding of no significant impact. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: Pursuant to section 102(2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969; the Council on Environmental Quality Guidelines (40 CFR Part 1500); and the Soil conservation Service Guidelines (7 CFR part 650); the Soil conservation Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, gives notice that an environmental impact statement is not being prepared for the Falgout Canal Demonstration Project, Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Donald W. Gohmert, State Conservationist, United States Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service, 3737 Government Street, Alexandria, Louisiana 71302; telephone (318) 473-7751. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The environmental evaluation 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, Donald W. Gohmert, State Conservationist, has determined that the preparation and review of an environmental impact statement are not necessary for this project. The project concerns the erosion protection and stabilization of a portion of the levee along the north bank of Falgout Canal. The planned works of improvement include the construction of wave dampening devices and installation of vegetative plantings on the levee berm along the canal bank. The wave dampening structures will reduce the erosive energy of marine-traffic-induced waves to allow the establishment of planted and naturally succeeding vegetation to stabilize the levee and reduce its rate of erosion. 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 Donald W. Gohmert. 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: August 31, 1994. Donald W. Gohmert, State Conservationist. [FR Doc. 94-22655 Filed 9-13-94; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 3410-16-M
