A new heating and air conditioning (HVAC) system will be required. FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT The City of Dayville has determined that the project will have no significant impact on the human environment. Therefore, an En- vironmental Impact Statement under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) is not required. Additional project infor- mation is contained in the Environmental Review Record (ERR) on file at: City of Dayville (City Hall) 3 Park Ln.

PUBLIC COMMENTS Any individual, group, or agency may submit written comments on the Environmental Review Record to the City of Dayville (City Hall), City of Dayville 3 Park Ln./PO Box 321, OR 97864.

RELEASE OF FUNDS The City of Dayville certifies to OBDD that Ilah Bennett in her ca- pacity as Mayor of Dayville consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibil- ities in relation to environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. The legal effect of the certifi- cation is, upon its approval, the City of Dayville 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 the City of Dayville certification for a period of fifteen 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 City of Dayville B. City of Dayville has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58 C. City of Dayville has committed funds or incurred costs not au- thorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval 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. Objections to the release of funds on bases other than those stated above will not be considered by OBDD.
