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.

  • Alabama Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Plan
    ALABAMA ELECTRIC VEHICLE INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN Background Volkswagen (VW) installed software in its 2.0-liter and 3.0-liter diesel engine vehicles that acted as an emissions testing “defeat device.” This resulted in the release of thousands of tons of nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions in excess of regulated limits. Volkswagen agreed to spend over $14.7 billion to settle allegations of cheating emissions standards. Alabama’s share of the settlement is approximately $25 million. The allowable uses of these funds are defined in the settlement agreement approved by the courts and administered by the VW Environmental Mitigation Trust. Generally, Volkswagen Mitigation funds are to be used to replace or repower existing diesel vehicles, vessels, and equipment with less polluting vehicles or engines. Approximately $3,248,000 has been allocated in the Alabama Volkswagen Settlement Beneficiary Mitigation Plan (Alabama VW BMP) for Light-Duty Zero Emission Vehicle Supply Equipment (ZEVSE) infrastructure, which is the maximum amount that Alabama could utilize for this purpose under the settlement agreement. The ZEVSE fueling infrastructure funds can be used for Level 2 or DC fast charging equipment for plug-in electric vehicles (EV) or for hydrogen fuel cell dispensing equipment. Planning The Trust mandates that each state submit a Volkswagen Environmental Mitigation Trust Beneficiary Mitigation Plan. The Trust further mandates that a public input process be used to develop the plan. Alabama has already submitted its plan, following a public input process, for the funds allocated to vehicle replacement and repowering. However, the Alabama plan includes a stakeholder process for developing a strategy for use of the ZEVSE fueling infrastructure funds.

  • Future I-22 Corridor
    Future I-22 Corridor The proposed I‐22 was originally called Corridor X, later designated as High Priority Corridor 10, one of 83 federally identified High Priority Corridors which get special funding and more technological focus. (I.E. grants, etc.) High Priority Corridors fit in with the federal plan to institute connected technology throughout the U.S. highway system to support distribution of International Trade into and around the US. Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstate_22 Interstate 22 (I‐22), when completed, will follow the U.S. Highway 78 corridor along a 213‐mile (343‐km) route from Memphis, Tennessee, to Birmingham, Alabama.[2] Future I‐22 will connect Interstate 55 and Interstate 40 in the northwest to Interstate 65 and Interstate 20 in the southeast, passing through or close to the towns of Holly Springs, Mississippi; New Albany, Mississippi; Tupelo, Mississippi; Hamilton, Alabama; Winfield, Alabama; and Jasper, Alabama. The part of I‐22 east of Fulton, Mississippi, was approved in 1978 as Corridor X, part of the Appalachian Development Highway System. Parts of the highway have been under construction ever since. Two stretches of the interstate remain to be completed. One stretch is in Alabama and totals approximately 6 miles (9.7 km) in length from Cherry Avenue in Forestdale to U.S. Highway 31 in Birmingham. This section includes the interchange with Interstate 65. The other stretch is from the Mississippi/Tennessee state line to its terminus in Memphis. The exact location of the western terminus has not been decided as of yet, but Interstate 269 (when completed) and Interstate 240 have been discussed as possible termini.
