These notices shall satisfy two separate but related procedural requirements for activities to be undertaken by Clearfield City Corporation.
REQUEST FOR THE RELEASE OF FUNDS
On or about December 9, 2014 Clearfield City Corporation will submit a request to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development on behalf of Clearfield City Corporation for the release of Community Development Block Grant (C.D.B.G.) under Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, to undertake a project known as the 400 West Infrastructure Project, for the purpose of replacing water and sewer lines, curb, gutter, sidewalk, and asphalt, as well as installing a new storm drain line on 400 West, from 2225 South to 2300 South. Estimated funding is $490,000.
FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT
Clearfield City Corporation has determined that the project will have no significant impact on the human environment. An Environmental Impact Statement under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), therefore, is not required. Additional project information is contained in the Environmental Review Record (ERR) on file at Clearfield City Corporation, Community Development, 55 South State Street, 2nd Floor, Clearfield, Utah 84015 and may be examined or copied weekdays 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Any individual, group, or agency disagreeing with this determination or wishing to comment on the project may submit written comments to Clearfield City Corporation. All comments received by December 8, 2014 will be considered by Clearfield City Corporation prior to authorizing submission of a request for release of funds. Comments should specify which Notice they are addressing.
RELEASE OF FUNDS
Clearfield City Corporation certifies to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development that Mark Shepherd in his capacity as Mayor 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 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development?s approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities, and allows Clearfield City Corporation to use Program funds.
OBJECTIONS TO THE RELEASE OF FUNDS
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development will accept objections to its release of funds and Clearfield City Corporation?s certification for a period of fifteen days following the anticipated submission date or its actual receipt of the request (whichever is late) only if they are made on one of the following bases: (a) the certification was not executed by the Certifying Officer of Clearfield City Corporation; (b) Clearfield City Corporation has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development regulations at 24 CFR Part 58; (c) the grant recipient has committed funds or incurred costs not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before the approval of a release of funds by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development 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 of 24 CFR Part 58 and shall be addressed to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Region VIII Office, 8ADE, 1670 Broadway Street, Colorado 80202-4801. Potential objectors should contact the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to verify the actual last day of the objection period.
