SEPA

DETERMINATION OF NONSIGNIFICANCE

DNS

WAC 197-11-340

DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSAL: REPLACE AND RECONDUCTOR DISTRIBUTION LINES AND POLES.

To replace 3 1/4 miles of existing wood poles with new poles and new, heavier distribution line that can carry a higher electrical capacity without increasing the current voltage. The new overhead construction consists of a three phase 336 All Aluminum Conductor (AAC) and will tie in with an existing electrical feeder.

The area is known as priority waterfowl and shoreline bird breeding habitat so all work will occur after mid-August to avoid the important breeding and fledging periods for young birds. In addition, September would likely have the lowest water elevation at the Desert Wildlife Area, and it is possible that installation of the new wood distribution poles could avoid any in-water work.

The existing wood poles within this wetland will be cut down to the height of the existing fence and used as fence posts to minimize the amount of in-water work. New poles, five feet higher than the older poles will be placed near the older poles. All poles within the wetland will be treated with ACZA or CCA wood preservatives.

Sediment curtains will be placed between the wetland and the installation work to reduce the likelihood of sediment entering the water and all equipment will be inspected and cleaned of all grease, oil, hydraulic fluid and noxious weeds prior to driving from the site to eliminate the possibility of contaminating or spreading noxious weeds into the wetland or other locations. All work will be from the Frenchman Hills Road (in County ROW), and a boom truck auger will be used to dig the holes for the new poles.

PROPONENT: Public Utility District No. 2 of Grant County, Washington.

LOCATION OF PROPOSAL, INCLUDING STREET ADDRESS, IF ANY:

There is no physical address, but the project begins on the corner of Dodson and Frenchman Hills Road, near Royal City, WA.

LEAD AGENCY: Public Utility District No. 2 of Grant County (District) has determined that the planned actions do not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment. An environmental impact statement (EIS) is not required under RCW 43.21C.030 (2) (c). This decision was made after review of a completed environmental checklist and other information on file with the lead agency. This information is available to the public on request.

This DNS is issued under WAC 197-11-340 (2); the lead agency will not act on this proposal for 14 days from the date below. Comments will be received for 14 days from the date below. Comments must be submitted by March 6, 2008.
