These notices shall satisfy two (2) separate but related procedural requirements for activities to be undertaken by the County of Blair.

REQUEST FOR RELEASE OF FUNDS: - On or about February 13, 2023, the County of Blair will submit a request to the Pennsylvania Department of Community & Economic Development (DCED) for the release of FY2021 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds in the amount of $100,000 under the provisions of Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 as amended, to undertake a project known as Water Lateral Installations – Freedom Township for the purpose of connecting public water service to approximately 16 existing residential properties located in the Everett Road Area of Freedom Township, Blair County.

FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT: - The County of Blair 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 the Blair County Dept. of Social Services, Blair County Courthouse, 423 Allegheny Street, Ste 441-B, Hollidaysburg, Pa 16648.

PUBLIC COMMENTS: - Any individual, group, or agency may submit written comments regarding the ERR to Blair County’s designated office responsible for receiving and responding to comments.

ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION: - The County of Blair certifies to DCED that Bruce Erb, President of the Blair County Board of Commissioners serving in his capacity as Certifying Officer, consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. DCED’s approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities, and allows the County of Blair to use program funds

OBJECTION TO RELEASE OF FUNDS: – DCED will consider objections to its release of funds and the County of Blair’s certification for a period of fifteen (15) days following the anticipated submission date or its actual receipt of the request (which ever is later) only if they are on one of the following basis: (a) the certification was not in fact executed by the Certifying Officer of the County of Blair; (b) that Blair County has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58; (c) the grant recipient or other participants in the development process have committed funds, incurred costs or undertaken activities not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval of a release of funds by DCED; or (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 procedures (24 CFR Part 58, Section 58.76) and shall be addressed to the Department of Community & Economic Development at chrhowe@pa.gov. Potential objectors should contact DCED to verify the actual last day of the objection period.
