SUMMARY: Pursuant to section 102(2)(c) of the National Environmental 
Policy Act of 1969; the Council on Environmental Quality Regulations 
(40 CFR part 1500); and the Natural Resources Conservation Service 
Regulations (7 CFR part 650); the Natural Resources Conservation 
Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, gives notice that an 
environmental impact statement is not being prepared for the Plain-
Honey Creek Watershed, Sauk County, Wisconsin.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Patricia S. Leavenworth, State 
Conservationist, Natural Resources Conservation Service, 6515 Watts 
Road, Suite 200, Madison, Wisconsin, 53719. Telephone (608) 276-8732.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The environmental assessment of this 
federally assisted action indicates that the project will not cause 
significant local, regional, or national impacts on the environment. As 
a result of these findings, Patricia S. Leavenworth, State 
Conservationist, has determined that the preparation and review of an 
environmental impact statement are not needed for this project.
    The project purposes are flood prevention and recreation. The 
planned works of improvement include the removal of two single family 
dwellings and a business from the hydraulic shadow of Structure Number 
3, and the enactment of a county floodplain zoning ordinance which 
restricts future development within the hydraulic shadow of Structure 
Number 3. Sediment will be removed from the lake behind the dam.
    The Notice of a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) has been 
forwarded to the Environmental Protection Agency and to various 
Federal, State, and local agencies and interested parties. A limited 
number of copies of the FONSI are available to fill single copy 
requests at the above address. Basic data developed during the 
environmental assessment are on file and may be reviewed by contacting 
Thomas Krapf at (608) 276-8732, Ext. 232.
    No administrative action on implementation of the proposal will be 
taken until 30 days after the date of this publication in the Federal 
Register.

    Dated: May 30, 2002.
Patricia S. Leavenworth,
State Conservationist.
