[[Page 48715]]

Regulations part 651, Environmental Analysis of Army Actions (AR 200-
2), and DLA's regulation for NEPA compliance, DLA Regulation 1000.22, 
Environmental Considerations in DoD Actions. However, because DLA is a 
tenant on Red River Army Depot, a U.S. Army-supported installation, 
this EA is subject to compliance with U.S. Army implementing 
regulations for NEPA. DLA has determined that the Proposed Action would 
not have a significant impact on the human environment within the 
context of NEPA. Therefore, the preparation of an environmental impact 
statement is not required.
    Comments received by the end of the 30-day period will be 
considered when preparing the final version of the documents. The EA is 
available electronically at the Federal eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov, and in hardcopy at the County Clerk's Office at 
the Bowie County Courthouse, 710 James Bowie Drive, New Boston, TX 
75570.
