NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT <br /> A review of the possible effects on the environment, as required by the National Environmental <br /> Policy Act (NEPA) and related environmental legislation, executive orders, and regulations, will <br /> be completed for this project. IHS will be responsible for all NEPA reviews for this project. It is <br /> anticipated that this review will indicate that the project meets the criteria for NEPA categorical <br /> exclusions for the HIS, as submitted to the Council on Environmental Quality. Further,the <br /> requirements of related legislation, executive orders, and regulations will be met. However, if <br /> any condition contrary to the results of this review is discovered at any time during the course of <br /> the project, further action will be taken to ensure that this project causes no significant impact on <br /> the environment. <br /> No funds for construction activities will be released until the Environmental review and <br /> associated determination is made. <br /> Note: <br /> Per our NEPA review: <br /> 1. The onsite Biodiffuser wastewater disposal system will be designed, installed, and <br /> operated in accordance with applicable local and state (Title 5) requirements. <br /> 2. Any hazardous and medical waste generated by operating the health clinic will be <br /> properly disposed of off site. <br /> 3. No materials used in the construction of the project (such as fuels, lubricants, cleaning <br /> solvents, antifreeze,etc.) will be allowed to spill on or infiltrate the ground. A spill and <br /> containment response plan will be developed before construction to prevent such <br /> infiltration into soil and ground water in the event of a spill. <br /> 7 <br />
