    LANCE R. LEFLEUR KAY IVEY DIRECTOR GOVERNOR adem.alabama.gov 1400 Coliseum Blvd. 36110-2400 • Post Office Box 301463 Montgomery, Alabama 36130-1463 (334) 271-7700 • FAX (334) 271-7950 CATEGORICAL EXCLUSION FROM ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW East Central Baldwin Water Sewer and Fire Protection Authority Baldwin County SRF Project No. FS010202-02 April 15, 2021 The Alabama Department of Environmental Management has made $680,000 in financial assistance available to the East Central Baldwin Water Sewer and Fire Protection Authority using funds from the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) loan program. In accordance with State and Federal regulations that govern the program, the Alabama Department of Environmental Management has conducted a review to assess the potential impacts upon the environment that may result from implementation of this project. The East Central Baldwin Water Sewer and Fire Protection Authority is proposing to install 4,400 linear feet of 10 inch PVC and 3,000 linear feet of 12 inch polyethylene water main and associated appurtenances along the existing Baldwin Beach Express Highway and will provide water supply from a secondary direction solving dead end connections. The water mains will allow isolation of mains in the event of a line break without loss of water supply to the current dead end lines and therefore improve the overall reliability and efficiency of the system. The Alabama Department of Environmental Management has determined that the project qualifies for a Categorical Exclusion (CE) from further environmental study under the guidelines specified by the State Environmental Review Process (SERP) which specifically include actions which are solely directed toward minor rehabilitation of existing facilities, functional replacement of equipment, or towards the construction of new ancillary facilities adjacent or appurtenant to existing facilities.
