NOTICE OF REQUEST FOR A REVIEW OF A FEDERAL AGENCY’S CONSISTENCY DETERMINATION FOR A PROPOSED FEDERAL ACTION
PUBLIC NOTICE - 591

The Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM) hereby gives notice that the NOAA affiliated Alabama GulfCorps has requested, in accordance with Title 15 C.F.R. 930 Subpart C, review of proposed federal actions pursuant to ADEM Administrative Code division 335-8.

Alabama state managers on the RESTORE Council and have identified several projects that the GulfCorps plans to begin working on in year four of this multi-year effort.  These projects are all located on state or federal lands, or other conservation landholdings that are protected by 501c(3) organizations.  The GulfCorps is funded through the RESTORE Deepwater Horizon funds to provide employment opportunities and training for local conservation corps to participate in coastal habitat restoration.

GulfCorps will train and hire local young people to conduct coastal habitat restoration using manual labor. These projects were identified in collaboration with the Governor’s office and other partners and there are multiple locations in Alabama. These projects provide stewardship of coastal upland habitats through the mapping, control and eradication of invasive species, trail/road and facilities maintenance and repair, including removal of debris, native vegetation planting, pitcher plant bog restoration, prescribed burn fire preparedness and prescribed burns, sand dune creation, education and outreach, and invasive apple snail removal.

The following Alabama GulfCorps Projects are proposed for year four.

• Invasive species management: Under direction of State Lands staff, the crew will break down beaver dams with hand tools (rakes, shovels, etc...), and they will participate in a beaver trapping training course and may help trap beavers in this area. The crew may also assist with vegetative invasive species such as Cogon grass (Imperata cylindrica), Popcorn tree (Sapium sebiferum), Chinese Privet (Ligustrum sinense), Kudzu (Pueraria), Coral ardisia (Ardisia crenata), which will be treated mechanically with saws and hand tool, or chemically by applying herbicide with hand applicators or backpack sprayers. (Cogon Grass/Other Herbaceous Plants - Herbicide solution is a mixture of Glyphosate and Imazapyr diluted in water. Popcorn Tree/Chinese Privet/Other Woody Plants: Controlled using physical chainsaw or hand tool removal or Hack n Squirt (>3” DBH). Herbicide solution will be the same for cogon grass or also be a mixture of triclopyr diluted in water for both aerial and hack n squirt methods.)
• Prescribed fire preparation and burning: For all restoration areas where prescribed burning and thinning activities are planned no ditching, road building, or construction is proposed. All sites will be accessed on foot from existing roadways and fire lanes and work will be accomplished with hand held tools and backpack herbicide applicators. Crew will perform maintenance on existing fire lanes by cutting emergent vegetation and clearing of plant debris. The crew could also create new fire lanes as directed by State Lands/Forever Wild staff. The crew may participate in controlled and prescribed fire activities within the Reserve as needed by State Lands.
• Trail and facility maintenance; debris removal: The crew will assist in the repair of access trails, parking areas, information kiosks, or other potential facilities onsite. The crew may also assist in boundary marking.

• Invasive plant species management: Cogon grass (Imperata cylindrica), Popcorn tree (Sapium sebiferum), Chinese Privet (Ligustrum sinense), Kudzu (Pueraria), Coral ardisia (Ardisia crenata), will be treated mechanically with saws and hand tool, or chemically by applying herbicide with hand applicators or backpack sprayers. (Cogon Grass/Other Herbaceous Plants - Herbicide solution is a mixture of Glyphosate and Imazapyr diluted in water. Popcorn Tree/Chinese Privet/Other Woody Plants: Controlled using physical chainsaw or hand tool removal or Hack n Squirt (>3” DBH). Herbicide solution will be the same for cogon grass or also be a mixture of triclopyr diluted in water for both aerial and hack n squirt methods.)
• Prescribed fire preparation and burning: For all restoration areas where prescribed burning and thinning activities are planned no ditching, road building, or construction is proposed. All sites will be accessed on foot from existing roadways and fire lanes and work will be accomplished with hand held tools and backpack herbicide applicators. Crew will perform maintenance on existing fire lanes by cutting emergent vegetation and clearing of plant debris. The crew could also create new fire lanes as directed by project partner staff.
• Facility maintenance; debris removal: The crew will assist in the repair of access trails, parking areas, information kiosks, signage repair/installation, and/or work on other potential facilities onsite. The crew may also assist in boundary marking.
• Trail maintenance and/or creation: The crew will perform trail and boardwalk maintenance and creation within the Preserve.

• Invasive plant species management: Cogon grass (Imperata cylindrica), Popcorn tree (Sapium sebiferum), Chinese Privet (Ligustrum sinense), Kudzu (Pueraria), Coral ardisia (Ardisia crenata), will be treated mechanically with saws and hand tool, or chemically by applying herbicide with hand applicators or backpack sprayers. (Cogon Grass/Other Herbaceous Plants - Herbicide solution is a mixture of Glyphosate and Imazapyr diluted in water. Popcorn Tree/Chinese Privet/Other Woody Plants: Controlled using physical chainsaw or hand tool removal or Hack n Squirt (>3” DBH).

• Prescribed fire preparation and burning: For all restoration areas where prescribed burning and thinning activities are planned no ditching, road building, or construction is proposed. All sites will be accessed on foot from existing roadways and fire lanes and work will be accomplished with hand held tools and backpack herbicide applicators. Crew will perform maintenance on existing fire lanes by cutting emergent vegetation and clearing of plant debris. The crew could also create new fire lanes as directed by project partner staff. Crews will also thin out forested areas to reduce fuel loads and sometimes in lieu of applying prescribed fire.
• Debris removal: Debris and trash removal including cleaning up illegal dumping of household garbage, and the retrieval and proper disposal of hurricane, storm or flooding related debris that is acceptable at construction and demolition landfill operations. Occasionally crews will encounter flammable or otherwise hazardous situations, which are reported to the local governing authorities, including the local project partner and if necessary the Coast Guard and Hazardous Material First Responders should the discovery of dangerous materials be observed.
• Facility and general maintenance: The crew may assist with the creation of a vehicle-free picnic area and non-motorized boat launch creation (with any necessary permits). Crew will also help to maintain amenities and signage as they are installed or created. The crew will install information kiosks, conduct signage repair/installation, and/or work on other potential facilities onsite. The crew may also assist in boundary marking.
• Trail maintenance and/or creation: The crew will perform trail and boardwalk maintenance and creation within the Park under the direction of the City of Mobile or their agents in conjunction with guidance and avoidance of wetlands or sensitive areas.
• Site planning and investigation: The crew may assist in the collection of data, surveys and site investigations, as well as planning to create a biological and habitat inventory and a restoration and public access plan in conjunction with the wildlife biologists with the Dog River Clearwater Revival and the City of Mobile.
• Education and outreach: activities as needed by organizations to include volunteer management and supporting the preparation for, execution of, and wrapping up of events or for visiting groups, who participate in the activities listed in this project scope of work where applicable.
