DELETE SUB-SECTION 107,23 AS WRITTEN AND SUBSTITUTE THE FOLLOWING:
107,23 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS: All environmental considerations and clearances shall be the
responsibility of the County or municipality to meet, including the requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water
Act (33 USC 1344). '
After July 1, 1991, State funded projects must comply with the requirements of Chapter 16 of Title 12 of the Official
Code of Georgia Annotated, the Georgia Environmental Policy Act (GEPA), of 1991. In compliance with GEPA.
those projects for which Federal funding is sought, and NEPA compliance is accomplished, are exempt from the
require !Dents .of GEP A.
GEPA requires that environmental documentation be accomplished for County or City projects if more than 50
percent of the total project cost is funded by a grant of a State Agency or a grant of more than $250,000.00 is made
by the State Agency to the municipality or County. The "responsible official of the government agency shall
determine if a proposed governmental action is a proposed governmental action which may significantly adversely
affect the quality of the environment".
A, THE FOLLOWING PROJECTS WOULD NOT SIGNIFICANTLY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE
QUALITY OF THE ENVIRONMENT:
Non-land disturbing actiVIties and minor land disturbing actlVltles which would not be anticipated to
significantly adversely affect the quality of the environment include the following list. These types of projects
funded with state money would not be subject to environmental assessment of any kind. Hearing procedures
outline in GEPA would not be applicable.
I. Minor roadway and non-historic bridge projects.
a. Modernization of an existing highway by resurfacing. restoration. rehabilitation. adding shoulders.
widening a single lane or less in each direction and the addition of a median within previously disturbed
existing right-of-way.
b. Adding auxiliary lanes for localized purposes (weaving, climbing, speed changes, etc), and correcting
substandard curves and intersections within previously disturbed existing right-of-way.
c. Non-historic bridge replacement projects in existing' alignment with no detour bridge.
2. Lighting, signing, pavement mliI'king, signalization, freeway surveillance and control systems, and railroad

6. Temporary 'replacement of a highway facility which is commenced immediately after the occurrence of a
natural disaster or catastrophic failure to restore the highway for the health., welfare. and safety of the public.
B. THE FOLLOWING PROJECTS MAY NOT SIGNIFICANTLY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE
QUALITY OF THE ENVIRONMENT:
For projects which will cause land disturbance and for which there is no anticipation that the project may
significantly adversely affect the quality of the environment, certain studies will be undertaken. These studies
would'serve to document whether or not the County or municipality should anticipate that a project might
significantly adversely affect the quality of the environment. Documentation of the studies will be
accomplished through the use of the "GEPA Investigation Studies" checklist.
The types of projects, which would fall under the category, would include:
1. Bridge replacement projects on new location or with a detour bridge. where there are no significant adverse
impacts to historic or archaeological resources, no involvement with Federally listed threatened and endangered
species and no significant adverse impact to wetlands.
2. Passing lanes, median additions and widening projects, where there are no significant adverse impacts to
historic or archaeological resources, no involvement with Federally listed threatened and endangered species
and no significant adverse impact to wetlands.
3. Safety and intersection improvements where there are no significant adverse impacts to historic or
archaeological resources, no involvement with Federally listed threatened and endangered species and no
significant adverse impact to wetlands.

5. New location projects where there are no significant adverse impacts to historic or archaeological resources, no
involvement with Federally listed-threatened and endangered species and no significant adverse impact to
wetlands.
If studies demonstrate that the project will not significantly adversely affect the quality of the
environment, project files will be documented. If studies demonstrate that the project may
significantly adversely affect the quality of the environment, development of an
environmental effects report (EER) will be undertaken along with the full GEP A compliance.
C, THE FOLLOWING PROJECTS MA YSIGNIFICANTL Y ADVERSELY AFFECT THE QUALITY

in uniform layers neatly leveled and shaped. Adequate openings shall be provided in spoil banks to allow surface
drainage of adjacent land. When shown on the plans 'or required by the Engineer, surface ditches of adequate
dimensions shall be cut at the tops of cut slopes, extending to each end of the cuts in order to carry the water from

The Engineer will determine the method(s) to be used on each Project.
The measurement will include overbreakage and slides in roadway excavation unless they are caused by the
