The NOAA NEPA Document Database catalogs environmental assessments (EAs) and environmental impact statements (EISs) that NOAA is currently developing. The Database also includes some of the EAs or EISs NOAA has completed in the past, although information may be limited and contain errors. The Database does not track proposed actions that rely on categorical exclusions. The Database also does not capture information on proposed actions for which another Federal agency is the lead agency for NEPA. Please send any questions or corrections to noaa.nepa@noaa.gov with the Subject line: “NOAA NEPA Document Database comment.“
Amendment 16 to the Atlantic Mackerel, Squid, and Butterfish FMP considers management measures to protect deep-sea corals from the impacts of commercial fishing gear in the Mid-Atlantic. This action would designate a deep-sea coral protection zone restricting the use of bottom-tending commercial fishing gear.
NWS proposes to reduce the minimum scan angle of the KCLX WSR-88D from the current minimum of +0.5 deg to +0.3 deg
(i.e. 0.2 deg lower than existing) to provide enhanced coverage of the lower portions of the
atmosphere.
NWS proposes to reduce the minimum scan angle of the KSHV WSR-88D from the current minimum of +0.5 deg
to +0.3 deg (i.e. 0.2 deg lower than existing) to provide enhanced coverage of the lower portions
of the atmosphere.
NWS proposes to reduce the minimum scan angle of the KGSP and KRAX WSR-88Ds from the current minimum of +0.5 deg to +0.2
deg (i.e. 0.3 deg lower than existing) to provide enhanced coverage of the lower portions of the
atmosphere.
NWS proposes to reduce the minimum scan angle of the KDGX WSR-88D from the current minimum of +0.5 deg to +0.3 deg
(i.e. 0.2 deg lower than existing) to provide enhanced coverage of the lower portions of the
atmosphere.
NWS proposes to reduce the minimum scan angle of the KMBX WSR-88D from the current minimum of +0.5 deg to +0.3
deg (i.e. 0.2 deg lower than existing) to provide enhanced coverage of the lower portions of the
atmosphere.
The FL TIG addresses, in part, injury to natural resources in the Florida Restoration Area as a result of the DWH oil spill. The plan includes a description and evaluation of 32 restoration projects, which are consistent with the following four Restoration Types: Habitat Projects on Federally Managed Lands, Nutrient Reduction, Water Quality, and Provide and Enhance Recreational Opportunities. Of these, 23 have been selected for funding and implementation at this time, totaling an estimated $61,282,740.
The Queen Bess Island Draft Restoration Plan evaluated two design alternatives for restoration of bird habitat, plus a no action alternative. The preferred alternative would create 30 acres of brown pelican habitat and 7 acres of tern and skimmer habitat. The Trustees presented the draft at a public meeting held on January 3, 2019, and collected public comments through January 22, 2019. After consideration of the comments received, the Trustees selected the preferred alternative and completed the final plan. The total estimated cost of the project is $18.71 million. This includes an estimated $2 million in engineering and design and $16.71 million for construction, maintenance, monitoring, adaptive management, and any future engineering and design costs required.

Lowering the KCLE radar scan angle from the lowest accounted for in categorical exclusions (+0.5 degrees) to +0.4 degrees.
The Draft Supplemental Restoration Plan and Environmental Assessment for the Elmer’s Island Access Project Modification (PDF, 52 pg) was prepared to propose changes to the project and assess environmental impacts from those changes.
Lowering the scan angle of the Buffalo, NY NEXRAD to below the lowest position accounted for in categorical exclusions (+0.5 degrees) to 0.3 degrees.
