Notice of Availability (NOA) for Strategic Network Optimization 
(SNO) Program Environmental Assessment

AGENCY: Defense Logistics Agency, DoD.

ACTION: Notice of Availability (NOA) for Strategic Network Optimization 
(SNO) Program Environmental Assessment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) announces the availability 
of an environmental assessment (EA) for the potential environmental 
impacts associated with the proposed action to implement the SNO 
initiative for improvements to material distribution network for the 
Department of Defense (DoD). The EA has been prepared as required under 
the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (1969). In addition, the 
EA complies with DLA Regulation (DLAR) 1000.22. The EA evaluates the 
potential environmental impacts of optimizing the DoD distribution 
network with reconfigured transportation and storage network--from 
supplier to transporter to end customer. Based on the analysis in the 
EA, DLA has determined that the proposed action was not a major federal 
action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment 
within the context of NEPA. Therefore, the preparation of an 
environmental impact statement (EIS) is not required.

DATES: The public comment period will end 30 days after publication of 
this NOA in the Federal Register. Comments received by the end of the 
30-day period will be considered when preparing the final version of 
the document. The EA is available electronically at http://www.dla.mil/Documents/DLA%20SNO%20EA%20September%202013.docx.
