  • This Proposed Action Is Located in Winston County, Alabama
    U. S. Forest Service Bankhead National Forest Biological Evaluation of Proposed Salvage of Forestland Damaged by Hurricane Rita – 2006 Winston County, Alabama This proposed action is located in Winston County, Alabama. Contact: Glen D. Gaines District Ranger P. O. Box 278 Double Springs, Alabama 35553 Telephone 205-489-5111 FAX 205-489-3427 E-mail [email protected] Summary: Hurricane Rita came through Bankhead National Forest on September of 2005. Several areas within the Bankhead National Forest received damage from high winds associated with the storm. Stands of hardwood and pine trees were uprooted, broken, blown over and root sprung in the areas covered by this evaluation. The damaged, merchantable timber within these three areas is proposed for removal using a Salvage Timber sale. These areas vary in both cover type and age class but are primarily a mixture of mature pine and hardwoods. The salvage timber sale proposed for implementation under this proposal covers an estimated 97 acres over at least three sites. Sites have been proposed for salvage operations south of Fairview in Winston County (see attached map identified as Figure #1). As with any Forest Service activity, considerations of the potential impacts to environmental resources of this project were evaluated. Some of the protected species of plants and wildlife that could potentially be impacted by these activities include those plant communities found in upland areas, riparian areas, streams and those found on rock outcrops. No incidental take of any federally listed species is expected or anticipated with this proposed action. Proposed salvage sale areas were initially located, then reviewed by biological staff.

    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FEDERAL ENERGY REGULATORY COMMISSION Alabama Power Company Project No. 2 165-029 NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY OF ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT (March 1.2011) In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s regulations, 18 C.F.R. Part 380, the Office of Energy Projects has reviewed an application filed by Alabama Power Company on June 5, 2009. requesting Commission approval to permit Mr. Lynn Layton (permittee) to construct and operate three covered 10-slip boat docks and a concrete patio at Cushman’s Marina, located on the Lewis Smith Development of the Warrior River Project (FERC No. 2165). The Lewis Smith Development is located on the headwaters of the Black Warrior River on the Sipsey Fork in Cullman, Walker, and Winston Counties, Alabama, and occupies 2,691.44 acres of federal lands administered by the U.S. Forest Service. An environmental assessment lEA) has been prepared as a part of Commission staff’s review. The EA evaluates the environmental impacts that would result from approving the licensee’s proposal and alternatives, and finds that approval of the application would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. A copy of the EA is on file with the Commission and is available for public inspection. The EA may also be viewed on the Commission’s website at yyy,.f.çrçoy using the “eLibrary” link.

  • Brushy Creek Watershed Water Quality Assessment Report
    Brushy Creek Watershed Water Quality Assessment Report Environmental Indicators Section Field Operations Division Alabama Department of Environmental Management Brushy Creek Watershed Water Quality Assessment Report January 14, 1999 Environmental Indicators Section Field Operations Division Alabama Department of Environmental Management Brushy Creek Watershed Water Quality Assessment Preface This project was funded or partially funded by the Alabama Department of Environmental Management utilizing a Clean Water Act Section 319(h) nonpoint source demonstration grant provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency - Region 4. Comments or questions related to this report should be addressed to: Alabama Department of Environmental Management Field Operations Division Environmental Indicators Section P.O. Box 301463 Montgomery, AL 36130-1463 Executive Summary Brushy Creek is located in Lawrence County and Winston County, Alabama and is one of the major tributaries to Lewis Smith Reservoir. The drainage area of Brushy Creek is 227.4 km2 (87.8 mi2). In recent years, concerns have developed among area residents concerning the lack of water quality data from Brushy Creek and it’s embayment in Smith Reservoir, which serves as the water supply for the community of Arley, Alabama. Determinations of landuse as well as measurements of water quality and estimates of nutrient loading attempt to address those concerns. Tributary nutrient loading data for other major tributaries to Smith Reservoir was collected for ADEM by Auburn University during the Clean Lakes Program Phase I Diagnostic / Feasibility Study of Smith Reservoir. This report is intended to serve as a companion document to the Phase I study’s final report (ADEM 1998). Much of the Brushy Creek watershed lies within the Bankhead National Forest and is forested with an even mix of deciduous forest, evergreen forest, and mixed forest.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Southeast Region Mississippi Ecological Services Field Office Jackson, Mississippi 1 5-YEAR REVIEW Flattened musk turtle (Sternotherus depressus) I. GENERAL INFORMATION A. Methodology used to complete the review: In conducting this 5-year review, we relied on the best available information pertaining to historic and current distributions, life history, and habitats of this species. We announced initiation of this review and requested information in a published Federal Register notice with a 60-day comment period (74 FR 31972). We conducted an internet search, reviewed all information in our files, and solicited information from all knowledgeable individuals including those associated with academia and State conservation programs. Our sources include the final rule listing for this species under the Act; the recovery plan; peer reviewed scientific publications; unpublished field observations by Service, State and other experienced biologists; unpublished survey reports; and notes and communications from other qualified biologists or experts. The completed draft was sent to the other cooperating Service office and three peer reviewers for review. Comments were evaluated and incorporated into this final document as appropriate (see Appendix A). We did not receive any public comments during the 60-day open comment period. B.
