Nation and later Marion County, the establishment of Lamar County was spurred by newly completed railroad lines in the area. The Mississippi Central Railroad, Gulf and Ship Island Railroad, and the New Orleans and North Eastern Railroad all facil- itated the establishment of several fag stops and sawmill towns in the early 1900s. Lumberton and Sumrall, two of the County’s three incorporated areas, developed quickly in this new economic en- vironment and became important stops along the rail lines. It is only ftting that rapid growth would necessitate an early update of Lamar County’s Comprehensive Plan when rapid growth was the reason that Lamar County was created. Back in 1888, the area now known as Lamar County was actually the Second Judicial District of Marion County. Over the next 14 years, the areas of Lumberton and Purvis be- came well-established communities thriving from the timber and lumber industry. When Gulf and Ship Island Railroad Company completed a rail line running through the area in 1900, the need for a formal government organization became evident. After all, Lumberton, Purvis, and Sumrall had al- ready been granted charters becoming towns. 1 Historic sites include the corner of Sullivan Road and since the 2010 Census.

CHYTKA, DISTRICT ) COMMANDER, MOBILE DISTRICT; ) NO. ALABAMA DEPARTMENT OF ) TRANSPORTATION; and JOHN R. ) COOPER, DIRECTOR, ALDOT, ) ) Defendants. ) ) COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF Plaintiff Black Warrior Riverkeeper, Inc., by and through its undersigned counsel, files this Complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief, stating as follows: INTRODUCTION 1. This action challenges violations of Section 404 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act ("Clean Water Act" or "CWA"), as well as the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 ("NEPA"), in connection with Defendant United States Army Corps of Engineers' ("the Corps') September 30, 2013 decision to issue a permit for the discharge of dredged or fill material into waters of the United States ("Section 404 permit") for the construction of a 1.86- mile segment of the Northern Beltline near Palmerdale, Alabama. When completed, the proposed 52-mile, six-lane Northern Beltline would be a new controlled-access highway between Interstate 459 in Bessemer, Alabama and Interstate 59 in Trussville, Alabama. 2. Section 404 of the Clean Water Act requires the Corps to issue permits only for those projects that represent the least damaging practicable alternative that will satisfy the project's purpose and need. In determining the least damaging practicable alternative, the Corps must evaluate a number of environmental and economic factors pursuant to CWA regulations and must look at the entire project. 3. The Section 404 permit issued for the Northern Beltline is an improper and illegal segmentation that prevents an objective look at the entire project's impacts and alternatives.
