Early Notice and Public Review of a Proposed Activity in a
Floodplain
To: All interested Agencies [U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE),
Oregon Department of State Lands (DSL), Oregon Department of
Land Conservation and Development (DLCD), Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USF-
WS), Eastern Oregon Regional Solutions Center, and Grant County,
Oregon, Groups and Individual, North Fork of the John Day Water-
shed Council, and residents of City of John Day and Grant
County.
RE: 24 CFR Part 58 Notice of City of John Day Wastewater System
Improvements Final Design: CDBG Project P18011
This is to give notice that Responsible Entity (City of John Day) un-
der Part 58 has determined that the following proposed action to
be undertaken with State-administered Community Development
Block Grant (Final Design: P18011) is partially located in the Feder-
al Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Special Flood Hazard
Area (SFHA). The Responsible Entity will be identifying and evalu-
ating practicable alternatives to locating the action in the floodplain
and the potential impacts on the floodplain and wetland resources
from the proposed action, as required by Executive Order 11988
and 11990, in accordance with HUD regulations at 24 CFR 55.20
Subpart C Procedures for Making Determinations on Floodplain
Management and Protection of Wetlands. The proposed project(s) is
located in City of John Day, Grant County, Oregon and is described
in detail below.
The proposed Wastewater System Improvements Project: Phase 1
includes two primary elements: (1) the construction of a new Class A
wastewater treatment facility (WWTF) with associated underground
piping and gravel access road; and (2) the demolition of the existing
wastewater treatment facility on 7th Street.
1. Construction of a new Wastewater Treatment Facility (WWTF)
The new WWTF will be located approximately 0.5 miles west of the
existing WWTF and approximately 0.2 miles west of the percola-
tion ponds. WWTF components will include a packaged membrane
bioreactor, secondary treatment system, and solids digestion infra-
structure. Piping for influent into the WWTF and for discharge of
treated effluent will include:
- An 18-inch gravity sewer line will be constructed between the
existing WWTF and the new WWTF in order to convey wastewater
to the new facility. The 18-inch line will cross above Davis Creek.
- A pressurized sewer force main will be designed to convey treat-
ed effluent into the City’s existing percolation ponds, which are cur-
rently being under-used. This will operate as the primary discharge
point for the new WWTF’s discharge.
The maximum ground disturbance depths for construction of the
new WWTF will be approximately 15 feet for the headworks and
installation of the 18-inch gravity sewer line; typical excavation is
anticipated to be 5 feet. A gravel road and parking lot will be placed
from the south side of the new WWTF to provide access to the new
facility. Stormwater will be managed on-site and through the City’s
existing stormwater infrastructure that will be extended south of the
new WWTF as a part of the planned 7th Ave. extension
2. Demolition of the old Wastewater Treatment Facility
The existing WWTF is located on the northwestern end of John Day
on 7th Street and is partially in the 100-year floodplain of the SFHA.
The old WWTF will be demolished as a part of this project once
the new WWTF is constructed and fully operational. However, the
existing percolation ponds to the west will remain in service until
an alternate discharge method is established and permitted by the
Oregon Department of Environmental Quality.
Project Locations Relative to Floodplains and Wetlands
There are four primary categories of new construction taking place
with respect to the floodplains and wetlands – (1) the new WWTF, (2)
the WWTF’s gravel access road, (3) a buried force main, and (4) a
buried gravity sewer line.
1. The new WWTF was designed and sited in order to avoid place-
ment in the SFHA as updated by LOMR-19-10-0438P-410077. This
will be the only “critical action” that is a part of this project, as defined
by 24 CFR 55.2. Located on FIRM #4100740675. It will not be sited
in a wetland.
2. The gravel access road will begin outside the SFHA and ex-
tend into the 500-year floodplain to the south of the WWTF. There
may be shallow grading related to the gravel road. Covered on FIRM
#4100740675. It will not be sited in a wetland.
3. The buried force main will begin outside the SFHA and trav-
el east to the existing percolation ponds and will travel through
100- and 500-year floodplains. Located on FIRM #4100740675 and
#4100770001. It is routed through an area identified on the National
Wetland Inventory as a wetland, however, the City is completing a
wetland delineation to determine the status of the area. The City
does not believe this area is a wetland.
4. The buried gravity sewer line will begin outside the SFHA and be
routed through 100- and 500-year floodplains as it travels east. Lo-
cated on FIRM #4100740675 and #4100770001. This line will cross
above Davis Creek, which is conveyed by culvert under the existing
access road. Davis Creek is considered a wetland and Waters of the
US. Because Davis Creek passes under a road, the pipe will be con-
veyed across the top of the culvert. The City’s Wetland Delineation
will identify the Ordinary High Water Mark. The gravity line will also
pass through the same wetland area identified in #3 for the buried
force main.
The information on floodplain location is based on the recently up-
dated and published FEMA FIRM maps for the City of John Day
and the Urban Growth Area. These panels were published in March
2019 and made effective as of October 17, 2019 (see LOMR-19-10-
0438P-410077).
Purpose of this Notice
There are three primary purposes for this notice. First, people who
may be affected by activities in floodplains and those who have an
interest in the protection of the natural environment should be giv-
en an opportunity to express their concerns and provide informa-
tion about these areas. Commenters are encouraged to offer alter-
native sites outside of the floodplain, alternative methods to serve
the same project purpose, and methods to minimize and mitigate
impacts. Second, an adequate public notice program can be an
important public educational tool. The dissemination of information
and request for public comment about floodplains can facilitate and
enhance Federal efforts to reduce the risks and impacts associated
with the occupancy and modification of these special areas. Third,
as a matter of fairness, when the Federal government determines it
will participate in actions taking place in floodplains, it must inform
those who may be put at greater or continued risk.
Written comments must be received by the Responsible Entity at the
following address on or before February 19, 2020:
City of John Day
