Sec.  230.11  Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI).



    A FONSI shall be prepared for a proposed action, not categorically 

excluded, for which an EIS will not be prepared. The FONSI will be a 

brief summary document as noted in 40 CFR 1508.13. In the case of 

feasibility, continuing authority, or special planning reports and 

certain planning/engineering reports, the draft FONSI and EA should be 

included within the draft report and circulated for a minimum 30-day 

review to concerned agencies, organizations and the interested public 

(40 CFR 1501.4(e)(2)). In the case of operation and maintenance 

activities involving the discharge of dredged or fill material requiring 

a public notice, the notice will indicate the availability of the EA/

FONSI. For all other Corps project actions a notice of availability of 

the FONSI will be sent to concerned agencies, organizations and the 

interested public (40 CFR 1501.4(e)(1)).
