PUBLIC NOTICE for Permit Application Issue Date: August 5, 2013 Expiration Date: September 4, 2013 US Army Corps of Engineers No: NWP-2010-536/1 30-Day Notice Oregon Department of State Lands No: 54003-RF

Interested parties are hereby notified that an application has been received for a Department of the Army permit for certain work in waters of the United States, as described below and shown on the attached plan.

Comments: Comments on the described work should reference the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers number shown above and reach this office no later than the above expiration date of this Public Notice to become part of the record and be considered in the decision. Comments should be mailed to the following address:

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Omar Ortiz omar.m.ortiz@usace.army.mil Eugene Field Office 1600 Executive Pkwy., Suite 210 Eugene, OR 97401-2156

Applicant: John Murphy Murphy Company 2350 Prairie Rd. Eugene, OR 97405-9742

Location: The project is on Prairie Rd., north of the existing plant located at 2350 Prairie Road, Eugene, Lane Co., Ore. The site is in Section 10, Township 17 South, Range 4 West (Longitude: 44.0991, Latitude: -123.1650)

Waterway: The impacted waters of the United States include on-site wetlands adjacent to Amazon Creek and stormwater conveyance.

Project Description: Murphy Company proposes to fill up to 1.8 acres of wetland to construct an 81,000 square foot building with associated pavement for vehicle access and material storage on an area of approximately 7 acres north of the existing plywood plant. Up to 19.2 acres of impervious surface divided into 6 basins would be created. Basins would have onsite stormwater structures including grassy swales, trapped catch basins or pollution control manholes to treat and slow stormwater before conveying runoff through a proposed drainage ditch. The proposed drainage ditch would measure approximately 1,500 linear feet, be located along the western property line, and convey surface runoff into an existing 30-inch diameter City of Eugene stormwater conveyance pipe at the north side of the property.

Mitigation: The applicant has provided a proposed compensatory wetland mitigation plan to purchase 1.8 acres of mitigation bank credits from Coyote Prairie North, Evergreen, or West Eugene Mitigation Bank(s). If a permit is issued, the Corps will determine what is appropriate and practicable compensatory mitigation. The amount of compensatory mitigation required shall be commensurate with the anticipated impacts of the project.

Purpose: To construct buildings with associated paving to expand existing plywood plant. Drawings: Twelve drawings are attached and labeled Corps No. NWP-2010-536-1 enclosure. Additional Information: Additional information may be obtained from Omar Ortiz, Project Manager, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at 541-465-6878,or by email omar.m.ortiz@usace.army.mil.

Authority: This permit will be issued or denied under the following:

Section 404, Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344), for discharge of dredged or fill material into waters of the United States.

Water Quality Certification: A permit for the described work will not be issued until certification, as required under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (P.L. 95‑217), has been received or is waived from the certifying state. Attached is the state's notice advertising the request for certification.

Section 404(b)(1) Evaluation: The impact of the activity on the public interest will be evaluated in accordance with the Environmental Protection Agency guidelines pursuant to Section 404(b)(1) of the Clean Water Act.

Public Hearing: Any person may request in writing within the comment period specified in this notice that a public hearing be held to consider this application. Requests for public hearings shall state with particularity the reasons for holding a public hearing.

Endangered Species: Preliminary determinations indicate that the described activity will not affect endangered species. Consultation under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (87 Stat. 844) is not required for the described activity.

Cultural Resources: An initial evaluation of the proposed project area indicates to the best of our knowledge, the described activity is not located on property registered or eligible for registration in the latest published version of the National Register of Historic Places. At this time the Corps is unaware of any cultural resource surveys of the project area.

This notice has been provided to the State Historic Preservation Office, interested Native American Indian tribes, and other interested parties. If you have information pertaining to cultural resources within the permit area, please provide this information to the Corps’ project manager (identified above in this notice) to assist in a complete evaluation of potential effects.

Evaluation: The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of the probable impact including cumulative impacts of the described activity on the public interest. That decision will reflect the national concern for both protection and utilization of important resources. The benefit, which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the described activity, must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. All factors, which may be relevant to the described activity will be considered including the cumulative effects thereof; among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general environmental concerns, wetlands, historic properties, fish and wildlife values, flood hazards, floodplain values, land use, navigation, shoreline erosion and accretion, recreation, water supply and conservation, water quality, energy needs, safety, food and fiber production, mineral needs, consideration of property ownership and, in general, the needs and welfare of the people.

The Corps is soliciting comments from the public; Federal, state, and local agencies and officials; Indian tribes; and other interested parties in order to consider and evaluate the impacts of this proposed activity. Any comments received will be considered by the Corps to determine whether to issue, modify, condition or deny a permit for this proposal. To make this decision, comments are used to assess impacts on endangered species, historic properties, water quality, general environmental effects, and the other public interest factors listed above. Comments are used in the preparation of an Environmental Assessment and/or an Environmental Impact Statement pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act. Comments are also used to determine the need for a public hearing and to determine the overall public interest of the proposed activity.

Additional Requirements: State law requires that leases, easements, or permits be obtained for certain works or activity in the described waters. These state requirements must be met where applicable, and a Department of the Army permit must be obtained before any work within the applicable Statutory Authority previously indicated may be accomplished. Other local governmental agencies may also have ordinances or requirements, which must be satisfied before the work is accomplished.
