| 02-22675 | Lower Cumberland and Tennessee Rivers, Kentucky Lock Addition Project, Final Supplement 1 Environmental Impact Statement, Department of the Army, United States Army Corps of Engineers | Notice | In accordance with the Council on Environmental Quality's regulations (40 CFR parts 1500 to 1508) and the Tennessee Valley Authority's (TVA) procedures for implementing the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), TVA has decided to adopt the Final Supplement 1 Environmental Impact Statement (FSEIS) issued by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) in May 2001. The FSEIS, entitled "Lower Cumberland and Tennessee Rivers, Kentucky Lock Addition Project," was filed with the Environmental Protection Agency on May 31, 2001. It addresses modifications and design changes to the approved Lock Addition Project not addressed in earlier NEPA reviews. TVA was a cooperating agency in the preparation of the FSEIS because it has responsibility for Kentucky Dam, including preserving the integrity of the dam and its appurtenant lock structures. TVA also has review and approval responsibilities under Section 26a of the TVA Act and property under TVA control that would be affected. TVA has independently reviewed the FSEIS and finds that the statement adequately addresses the comments and suggestions made by TVA in its role as a cooperating agency. Further, TVA has decided to adopt the USACE's Proposed Action Plan identified in the FSEIS. The Proposed Action Plan is the currently recommended project design based on recent engineering studies, hydraulic modeling information, and newly added features. Overall, the design changes and project modifications reduce the environmental impacts of the original project on high quality mussel resources while improving long-term recreation facilities for fishermen and tourists. None of the proposed changes resulted in public controversy. | 2002-09-06 | 2002 | 9 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2002/09/06/02-22675/lower-cumberland-and-tennessee-rivers-kentucky-lock-addition-project-final-supplement-1 | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2002-09-06/pdf/02-22675.pdf | Tennessee Valley Authority | 486 | In accordance with the Council on Environmental Quality's regulations (40 CFR parts 1500 to 1508) and the Tennessee Valley Authority's (TVA) procedures for implementing the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), TVA has decided to adopt the Final... |
