The proposed work would be accomplished under authority for the Mississippi River and Tributaries Project. This Environmental Assessment has been prepared in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and the Council on Environmental Quality’s Regulations, as reflected in the USACE Engineering Regulation ER 200-2-2.
