Road, Suite 200, Madison, Wisconsin, 53719. Telephone (608) 276-8732.
Supplementary Information: The environmental assessment of this
federally assisted action indicates that the project will not cause

The project purposes are gully, sediment and flood control. The
planned works of improvement include the repair of pipe separations in
the principal spillway of structures 2, 3 and 5, and removal of
sediment from all three structures. Enactment of a county floodplain
zoning ordinance will restrict future development within the hydraulic
shadow of all three structures.
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 Sheryl B. Paczwa.
No administrative action on implementation of the proposal will be
taken until 30 days after the date of this publication in the Federal
Register.
Patricia S. Leavenworth,
State Conservationist.
