The nature of the project will result in little to no environmental change to an existing structure that has been in existence for 30 years. I reviewed the USFWS and NMFS Endangered Species Act -Species Search and Critical Habitat websites for Williamson County. One known occurrence of the Jollyville plateau salamander habitat was recorded 2.2 miles from the proposed site but no other sites have been recorded within 1.5 miles of this project site. Based on the nature of the project and information reviewed from the USFWS and NMFS websites, it is my opinion that the nature of the project will likely have "no effect" on federally protected species and critical habitat.

I would strongly encourage you, an opportunity arises to do an energy audit, aspeclallyfort osethatare nearest the railway, to consider assessing the noise issue. It is very easy to accommodate noise attenuation when upgrading energy efficiency inthe home. R/ LM From: Myers, Laura L Sent: Thursday, November 17, 201110:43 AM To: 'Elizabeth Alvarado' Cc: Britton, Barbara R Subject: RE: housing authority project Liz, you will still need to address noise in the environmental review process. 15 there an airport within 15 miles of the site.? Is there a major roadway within 7.000 feet of the site? Is there a railway within 3000 feet of the site? if the answers to all of these questions are "nu" then you have done all you need to address noise. If any of the answers are yes, then a noise analysis would need to be done to calculate the DNL of the site. If the site D N L is less than 65dB, then you have done all you need to address noise. I -or major or substantial rehab projects, if the DNL is 65-75 dB HUD encoul'ages noise atterivation to be Included in renovations commensurate with the level of renovation planned. If the UNI- is above 75 dB, HUD strongly encourages conversion of the noise -exposed site to a land use more compatible with high levels of noise. Please see Part 51.101(a 5. As for addressing explosives and flammable operations, the regulations apply to any HUD -assisted projectbe defined in 24 CFR 51.201. The Interpretation of"rehabilitation"and"modernization" in that definition as described in the ASD Guidebook, refer only to such repairs and renovation of the flti1) assisted project that will result In an Increase In the number of people, of converting the use of a buildingto hurnan habitation, m' making a vacant building habitable. Ifthe above described type of renovation is planned for your project, then you will need to address this issue, which would begin with a site visit and visual survey of an area one mile in radius surrounding' the site for any above ground storage tanks. If It does nut involve the above described type of renovation, then you will only need to state that In your ERR.
