Wednesday, February 26, 2020 101 Legal Notices 101 Legal Notices B9 101 Legal Notices COMBINED NOTICE Finding of No Significant Impact Notice of Intent to Request Release of Funds Scott W. Myers, Grant County Judge (Responsible Entity, County) February 26, 2020 Date of Notice 201 South Humbolt Street, Suite 280 Address (541) 575-0059 Telephone Number Canyon City, Oregon 97820 City, State, Zip Code This Combined Notice shall satisfy two separate but related procedural requirements for activities to be undertaken by Grant County. Request for Release of Funds: On or about March 18, 2020 the above named entity will submit a request to the Oregon Business Devel- opment Department (OBDD) for the release of federal Community Development Block Grant funds under Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (PL 93?383), as amended, to undertake a project known as: Project Title: Heart of Grant County Meredith House Project Purpose of Nature/scope of project: Grant County has proposed to design and construct a new do- mestic violence facility in John Day, Oregon through the Heart of Grant County. Currently, there is not a dedicated domestic violence shelter in Grant County and these services have been provided through a leased commercial building. This building is not adequate in preserving the confidentiality and safety of the clients that seek domestic violence services. Building a new facility would allow the County to address safety concerns by improving the security of the building. The building itself would be an as- set for the County that could fulfil services not being adequately provided now. Grant County is a rural community according to the USDA Economic Research Service’s rural-urban code. The County has a low medium household income rate according to the 2014 Census, an unemployment rate above 10%, low economic diversity, and ended up steadily losing population from 2000-2014. Building the domestic violence shelter in John Day will help maintain community resilience and provide needed services to victims. Estimated funding: $1,500,000 Project location: 115 Northwest John Day, Oregon 97820 Finding Of No Significant Impact Grant County has determined that the project will have no significant impact on the human environment. Therefore, an Environmental Impact Statement under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) is not required. Additional project information is contained in the Environmental Review Record (ERR) on file at 530 East Main Street, Suite 10 in John Day, Oregon, and is available for public review/ examination or can be copied weekdays 8:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. upon request. Public Comments Any individual, group or agency disagreeing with this determination or wishing to comment on the proj- ect may submit written comments to Beth Simonsen at Grant County. Such written comments should be received at the above address on or before March 18, 2020. All such comments so received will be considered by Grant County prior to authorizing submission of a request for release of funds. Comments should specify which Notice thay are addressing. Release of Funds Grant County certifies to OBDD that Mr. Scott W. Myers in his official capacity as Grant County Judge, consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. The legal effect of the certification is, upon its approval, Grant County may use the Grant funds, and OBDD will have satisfied its responsibilities under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and related laws and authorities. Objections to Release of Funds OBDD will accept objections to its Release of Funds and Grant County certification for a period of fif- teen days following the anticipated submission date or actual receipt of the request for release of funds (whichever is later) only if they are on one of the following bases: A. The certification was not executed by the Certifying Officer of Grant County B. Grant County has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58 C. Grant County has committed funds or incurred costs not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before a proval of a release of funds by OBDD D. Another federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submitted a written finding that the project is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality. Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedure (24 CFR Part 58), and shall be addressed to OBDD at 775 Summer Street NE, Suite 200, Salem, OR 97301-1280. Ob- jections to the release of funds on bases other than those stated above will not be considered by OBDD. Potential objectors should contact OBDD to verify the actual last day of the objection period. It is esti- mated that any objection received after April 2, 2020 will not be considered by OBDD.
