Plum Creek Watershed, Pepin and Pierce Counties, WI.

AGENCY: Natural Resources 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 Regulations
(40 CFR Part 1500); and the Natural Resources Conservation Service
Regulations (7 CFR Part 650); the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, gives notice that an
environmental impact statement is not being prepared for the Plum Creek
Watershed, Pepin and Pierce Counties, Wisconsin.

For Further Information Contact: Patricia S. Leavenworth, State
Conservationist, Natural Resources Conservation Service, 6515 Watts
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
significant local, regional, or national impacts on the environment. As
a result of these findings, Patricia S. Leavenworth, State
Conservationist, has determined that the preparation and review of an
environmental impact statement are not needed for this project.
    The project purposes are grade stabilization, sediment damage
reduction, and incidental flood prevention. The planned works of
improvement include the repair of Structure Number 19, the removal of
accumulated sediment, and the enactment of a county floodplain zoning
ordinance which restricts future development within the hydraulic
shadow of Structure Number 19.
    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.
