SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), as implemented by the Council
on Environmental Quality regulations (40 CFR 1507.3) and HHS General
Administration Manual Part 30 environmental procedures, CDC is issuing
a ROD based on the Final SEIS that analyzed the effects of additional
proposed components that were not analyzed in the 2014 Final
Environmental Impact Statement.
Public Participation
On January 28, 2022, CDC published a Notice of Intent to prepare a
SEIS in the Federal Register (87 FR 4603). CDC announced a Notice of
Availability (NOA) of the Draft SEIS on July 8, 2022 (87 FR 40844) and
the public comment period ended August 22, 2022. During the public
comment period, a virtual public meeting was held on July 27, 2022. Two
participants attended the meeting. CDC received five public comments.
CDC made minor revisions to the Final SEIS based on these comments. The
comments and CDC's responses are included in Appendix A of the Final
SEIS found in the Supporting Materials tab of the docket. On October
14, 2022, CDC published the NOA for the Final SEIS in the Federal
Register (87 FR 62413).
Decision
Based on the Final SEIS, CDC has decided to implement Alternative 1
(Preferred Alternative) as the selected alternative. This Alternative
includes the construction and operation of a new Hazardous/Medical/
Infectious Waste Incinerator in a new laboratory building, the
operation of two proposed emergency standby power diesel generators to
support that laboratory, and annual testing of the generators.
According to the analysis, no potential significant impacts were
identified for the selected alternative.
CDC's decision is based on an analysis of the potential impacts of
the alternatives considered in the SEIS weighed against CDC's
continuing need to fulfill its unique and critical public health
mission and its ability to mitigate in whole or in part the adverse
impacts. CDC also considered the input from the public and agencies,
such as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Georgia Department of
Natural Resources, Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD), and
Georgia Historic Preservation Division.
Compliance Requirements
The ROD includes these additional compliance requirements: CDC will
obtain an updated Title V Operating Air Permit from Georgia EPD and
treat and dispose of waste in accordance with Georgia EPD, Biomedical
Waste (Rule 391-3-4-.15).
Availability of the ROD: The ROD is available in the Supplemental
Materials tab of the docket found on the Federal eRulemaking Portal:
<a href="https://www.regulations.gov">https://www.regulations.gov</a>, identified by Docket No. CDC-2022-0014.
The public is being notified of the ROD through this Federal
Register publication and the NOA has been provided to interested
parties via electronic mail.
Dated: November 14, 2022.
Angela K. Oliver,
Executive Secretary, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
