| 2016-13356 | Proposed Amendment to Initial Funded Priorities List | Notice | The Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council (Council) seeks public and Tribal comment on a proposal to amend its Initial Funded Priorities List (FPL) to approve implementation funding for the Apalachicola Bay Oyster Restoration project in Florida (Project). The Council is proposing to approve $3,978,000 in implementation funding for this Project. The Council is also proposing to reallocate $702,000 from project planning to project implementation, after any remaining planning expenses have been met. The total amount available for implementation of the Project would thus be $4,680,000. These funds would be used to restore approximately 251 acres of oyster beds, which is an increase from the 219 acres originally proposed in the FPL. To comply with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and other applicable laws, the Council is proposing to adopt an existing Environmental Assessment (EA) that addresses the activities in the Project. In so doing, the Council would expedite project implementation, reduce planning costs and increase the ecological benefits of this Project by using savings in planning funds to expand the Project by approximately 32 acres. The Council looks forward to public and Tribal comment on this proposal. | 2016-06-07 | 2016 | 6 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/06/07/2016-13356/proposed-amendment-to-initial-funded-priorities-list | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-06-07/pdf/2016-13356.pdf | Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council | 583 | The Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council (Council) seeks public and Tribal comment on a proposal to amend its Initial Funded Priorities List (FPL) to approve implementation funding for the Apalachicola Bay Oyster Restoration project in Florida... |
