Town of Bude

P.O. Box 448

Bude, MS 39630

Linda Green, Mayor -- 601-384-2600

TO ALL INTERESTED AGENCIES, GROUPS AND PERSONS:

On or about May 17, 2024, the above named Town will request the

Mississippi Development Authority to release funds under Title I of the

Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, for the

following project: 2023 Community Development Block Grant Project which

consists of rehab of two lift stations, the replacement of a lift

station and equatic vegetation removal in the sewer lagoon($596,590.25).

The activities proposed are categorically excluded under HUD regulations

at 24 CFR Part 58 from National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)

requirements. An Environmental Review Record (ERR) that documents the

environmental determinations for this project is on file at: Town of

Bude, 125 Railroad Ave, Bude, MS 39630 and may be examined and copied

between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 4:00 P.M.

Finding of No Significant Impact

The Town of Bude has determined that the project will have no

significant impact on the human environment. Therefore, an

Environmental Impact Statement under the National Environmental Policy

Act of 1969 (NEPA) is not required. Additional project information is

contained in the Environmental Review Record (ERR) on file at: Town of

Bude, 125 Railroad Ave, Bude, MS 39630 and may be examined and copied

between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 4:00 P.M.

Public Comments

All interested agencies, groups and persons may submit written comments

on the ERR to the Town of Bude. All comments received by May 17, 2024

will be considered by the Town of Bude prior to submission of a request

for release of funds.

Release of Funds

The Town of Bude certifies to the Mississippi Development Authority that

Linda Green in her capacity as Mayor of the Town of Bude consents to

accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to

enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process

and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. The Mississippi

Development Authority's approval of the certification satisfies its

responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities and allows

the Town of Bude to use HUD program funds.

OBJECTIONS TO STATE RELEASE OF FUNDS

The Mississippi Development Authority will accept any objections to its

release of fund and the Town of Bude's certification for a period of

fifteen days following the anticipated submission date or its actual

receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if they are on one of

the following bases: (a) the certification was not executed by the

Certifying Officer of the Town of Bude; (b) the Town of Bude has omitted

a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD

regulations at 24 CFR part 58; (c) the grant recipient or other

participants in the development process have committed funds, incurred

costs or undertaken activities not authorized by 24 CFR part 58 before

approval of a release of funds by the Mississippi Development Authority;

or (d) another Federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has

submitted a written finding that the project is unsatisfactory from the

standpoint of environmental quality. Objections must be prepared and

submitted in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58,

Sec. 58.76) and shall be addressed to Attention: Steve Hardin at the

Mississippi Development Authority, Community Services Division, P.O. Box

849, Jackson, MS, 39205-0849. Potential objectors should contact the

Mississippi Development Authority to verify the actual last day of the

objection period.

FINAL NOTICE AND PUBLIC EXPLANATION OF A PROPOSED ACTIVITY

IN THE 100-YEAR FLOODPLAIN AND WETLAND

To: All interested Agencies, Groups and Individuals

This is to give notice that the Town of Bude has conducted an evaluation

as required by Executive Orders 11988 and 11990 in accordance with HUD

regulations at 24 CFR 55.20 to determine the potential affect that its

activity in the floodplain and wetland will have on the environment.

The proposed project consists of the following: The rehab of two lift

stations, the replacement of a lift station and equatic vegetation

removal in the sewer lagoon. A portion of the proposed project may

impact less than one hundred (100) acres.

The Town of Bude has determined that it has no practicable alternative

other than locating the proposed Community Development Block Grant

project in a floodplain/wetland. This activity will have no significant

impact on the environment for the following reasons: A portion of the

proposed project is located in a floodplain/wetland, but there is not a

practicable alternative to this location because the project involves

repair/replacement of existing sewer lines. Every action will be taken

to minimize impacts to the floodplain/wetland. Compliance with local,

state, and federal standards will be made. Planned development with

adherence to floodplain/wetland conservation ordinances should, in the

long run, benefit the floodplain.

Written comments must be received by the Town of Bude at the following

address on or before May 9, 2024. Town of Bude, P.O. Box 448, Bude, MS

39630, Attention: Linda Green, Mayor, Town of Bude.
