Office of Energy Research, Office of HggRh and Environment! Research. Atmospheric and Climate Research Drviston lASTER DISTRIBUTION OF THIS DOCUMENT IS UNLIMITED Executive Summary The Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program is- aimed at supplying improved predictive capability of climate change, particularly the prediction of cloutRiimate feedback. The abjective wEl be achieved by measuring the atmospheric radiation and physical and meteorological quantities, that control solar radiation in the earth's atmosphere and using this information to test global elimate and related models. The proposed- action is to construct and operate » Cloud and Radiation Testbed (CART! research site in the southern- Great Plains, as, pail of the Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation, Measurement Program whose objective is. u» develop an improved predictive capability of global climate change. The putpose of thts- CART research site tit southern Kansas, ynd nonhcm Ofclahoma would be to- collect meteorological and: othsr scientific information to betffip characterize the processes controlling radiation transfer on a global scale, thereby expanding DOE"* knowledge of the suspected enhanced greenhouse effect and any assueiatet! global wanning. The CART site proposed for the southern Great Plains covers an «re« 325 km x 2?5 km which is larger than the minimum conceptual design of a 20« km x 2TO km square. However, due to the disbursed nature of the instrumentation located on the CART site, it would be necessary to tease only a small portion of this area in order to implement the proposed action. The proposed CART site would be comprised of a- single central facility {160 acres), six auxiliary facilities (50- 100- acres each); approximately 25 extended facilities (50-100 acres each), and wp to six boundary facilities (50--100 acres each). Thus, of the nearly 22 million acres within the proposed CART site area, only 3t8'60 acres would need to be teased for these widely disbursed data collection facilities. Of the total teased acreage, about 2t acres would be secured by fence-line and the surface within the fenced areas would not be disturbed except foe the placemen! of instruments and associated facilities. The total surface area disturbed for concrete pads to support such hems as trailers. storage facilities, tnd housing facilities is estimated to be less than 12 acres, ft is proposed to operate the CART site around-the-ctoek for up to lf> years with up to 36 technical siaff persons. At the close of the 10 year operating period, alt facilities and equipment would be removed and the land returned to its, previous use. Air quality impacts of placement and operation would be very minor since only a small amount of clearing and a small amount of leveling would be needed. State of Oklahoma regulations on fugitive dust mitigation (e.g.. watering to reduce emissions) would be followed during the construction. N'*ise impacts to nearby residents were evaluated for the potentially noisy 50- and 915- MHz peofttur/RadtP Acoustic Sounding Systems (RASSs). The noise from those instruments represent a tow (for 50 MHz RASS} or high (For 915 MHz RASS) frequency tone that occurs 5-6 minutes of every 3f> or 60 minutes. The results were that: I. The 50-MHz profiler/RASS was found to be acceptable at the central facility for the proposed action and each of the alternatives. The baffled 50 MHz tit pro file r/RASS was. found; to be acceptable at the boundary sites for each of the proposed actions and for some (but not all) of the proposed: alternatives. 2. The 915-MH2 RASS system was found; to be acceptable at all proposed sites and alternatives, including: the central facility and: the six. boundary facilities. Research aircraft would occasionally carry out tow-level passes at 500 ft above ground level The proposed aircraft would: cause momentary speech interference for people under the flight path, a minor impact resource impacts would be very minor/, mth the requirement for two boundary facilities. (MeCtaim and Gkmutgee County)) that construction and operational activities would be out in specified subportions of the sites &» avoid tluodpl'ain and wetlands areas. Impacts, to- vegetation, and wildlife would be low and temporary. No threatened or endangered species would be at risk. Land use impacts, would be very low because of the limited area! requirements, of the project, Tht project impacts to visual resources surrounding each site would be low. The only structure in the entice project that would be visible from a vantage point «!' greater- than two- miles would be the central facility's 60-tn meteorological tower. The impacts. U> cultural resources would be minor. The state historical preservation officers (SHPO) of Oklahoma and Kansas, indicated that none of the proposed or alternative sites for facilities contains structures or sites listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The lower elevation of the Marion County (Kansas); site may contain archewUxgicul sites, but these areas would be strictly avoided. Soeioeconoroics impacts would be minimal. Some minor economic benefits would occur in the vicinity of each proposed site, but these would consist of brief employment (30 days maximum) for only a few workers and the local purchase of support materials. Because the ARM Project activities are located in isolated rural areas where there is very little activity other than farming, the cumulative impacts would be negligible. Furthermore, this project represents new effort and has no cumulative impacts with any previous DOE work or with any other federal projects. The no action alternative would be the toss of a U.S. site, which would be detrimental to the scientific study of global warming. The toss of the U.S. site would severely limit the ability of the project t» vastly improve models and to make appropriate policy decisions on global climate change.

    2016 Fish Consumption Advisories Issued / 1-7-16 / Weekly News / News / KDWPT Info / KDWPT - KDWPT | Like 0 2016 Fish Consumption Advisories Issued Tweet TOPEKA – The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) and the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism (KDWPT) are issuing revised fish consumption advisories for 2016. The advisories identify types of fish or other aquatic animals that should be eaten in limited quantities or, in some cases, avoided altogether because of contamination. General advice is also provided to aid the public in making informed decisions regarding the benefits as well as the risks associated with eating locally caught fish from Kansas waters. Statewide Advisories The following consumption restrictions are recommended because of mercury in fish: Women who are pregnant, may become pregnant, or are nursing and children age 17 or younger should restrict consumption of all types of locally caught fish, from waters or species of fish not specifically covered by an advisory, to one meal per week because of mercury. Women who are pregnant, may become pregnant, or are nursing and children age 17 or younger should restrict consumption of largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted bass (black basses) to one meal per month because of mercury. The general public (men and women 18 or older)should restrict consumption of these species to one meal per week because of mercury. Recommendations include not eating specified fish or aquatic life from the following locations: 1. The Kansas Riverfrom Lawrence (below Bowersock Dam) downstream to Eudora at the confluence of the Wakarusa River (Douglas and Leavenworth counties); bottom-feeding fish such as buffalo, carp, carpsuckers, catfishes (except flathead catfish), sturgeons, and suckers because of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).
