The project consists of extending sewer service to
the Orchard Hill and Coffey Hill areas as well as
upgrades to the wastewater treatment plant. Town

Finding of No Signifi cant Impact: It has been determined

under the National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 (P.L. 91-190). The reasons for such decision
not to prepare such statement are as follows: All
preliminary environmental reviews by state and
county agencies indicated that the proposed project
would not endanger the environment under any capacity.
An Environmental Review Record respecting
the proposed project has been made by the
above named Town of Nashville which documents
the environmental review of the project and more
fully sets forth the reasons why such statement is
not required. This Environmental Review Record
is on fi le at the above address and is available for
public examination and copying upon request at
the Town of Nashville, Clerk Treasurer’s Offi ce,
200 Commercial Drive, Nashville, IN 47448. No
further environmental review of such project is
proposed to be conducted prior to the request for
release of funds.

the preceding sentences.
Release of Funds: The Town of Nashville will

of Nashville and Roger D. Kelso, in his offi cial
capacity as the Town Council President, Town of
Nashville, consents to accept the jurisdiction of the
federal courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities
in relation to environmental reviews,
decision making, and action; and that these responsibilities
have been satisfi ed. The legal effect of the
certifi cation is that upon its approval, the Town of
Nashville may use the Block Grant funds and the
State will have satisfi ed its responsibilities under
the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969.
Objections to State Release of Funds: The State
will accept an objection to its approval only if it
is on one of the following basis: (a) that the certifi
cation was not in fact executed by the certifying
offi cer or other offi cer of applicant approved by
the State; or (b) that the applicant's environmental
review record for the project indicated omission
of a required review process. Objections must
be prepared and submitted in accordance with the

addressed to the State of Indiana, Indiana Offi ce of
Community and Rural Affairs, Environmental Offi
cer, One North Capitol, Suite 600, Indianapolis,
