TV-4, Cote Blanche Hydrologic Restoration Project, St. Mary 
Parish, Louisiana

AGENCY: Natural Resources Conservation Service, USDA.

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 Natural Resources Conservation Service 
Guidelines (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 Cote 
Blanche Hydrologic Restoration Project, St. Mary Parish, Louisiana.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Donald W. Gohmert, State Conservationist, Natural Resources 
Conservation Service, 3737 Government Street, Alexandria, Louisiana 
71302; telephone (318) 473-7751.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The environmental assessment of the 
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 is not needed for this project.
    This plan proposes to reduce wetland loss on approximately 30,000 
acres of intermediate marsh in St. Mary Parish, Louisiana. Project 
measures include 1,700 linear feet of passive type, low-level weir 
structures, and 10,000 linear feet of shoreline stabilization.
    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 14, 1995.
Donald W. Gohmert,
State Conservationist.
