Issued by Agriculture Department
NRCS announces the availability of the Record of Decision (ROD) for the Clarke County Water Supply Project Plan and Final Plan- Environmental Impact Statement (Final Plan-EIS) in Clarke County, Iowa. NRCS has selected the "Water Supply Reservoir with Dam at Site 4B Alternative" as the preferred alternative. This alternative includes constructing an earth-fill embankment dam with a reinforced concrete pressure-pipe principal spillway and vegetated auxiliary spillway; installing a water-supply pipeline (including a pumping station and ground storage reservoir) to transport water from the reservoir to the water-treatment plant; and relocating a segment of a local road (Truro Pavement).
This is a factual description of what was issued or decided, not an assessment of it.
