CATEGORICAL EXCLUSION FROM ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
ADEM Fund Code 203

City of Prattville
Autauga County

SRF Project No. CS010254-11

The Alabama Department of Environmental Management has made $4,010,000 in financial assistance available to The City of Prattville using funds from the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) 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 City of Prattville proposes a project that will improve the sanitary sewer collection system and drainage capabilities of the project area. Improvements include replacing the existing sanitary sewer along Washington Street and Easy Street, and installing a new storm sewer in the same area. Improvements will keep roadways from flooding and will ensure necessary rehab of aging infrastructure.

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.  However, this decision may be reconsidered if significant adverse information concerning the potential environmental impacts of the project is discovered.

Comments relative to this project should be submitted in writing to Juliette Cox, SRF Section, Permits & Services Division, Alabama Department of Environmental Management, P.O. Box 301463, Montgomery, Alabama 36130-1463, no later than 30 days after the date of this notice.  The Alabama Department of Environmental Management will not take formal action to proceed with the project without carefully evaluating any public comments opposing the project.

This notice is hereby given this 23rd day of May, 2020, by authorization of the Alabama Department of Environmental Management.
