Combined Notice
Notice to Public of No Significant Impact on the Environment and
Notice to Public of Request for Release of Funds
Town of Crothersville, Jackson County
111 E. Howard Street
Crothersville, Indiana 47229
TO ALL INTERESTED AGENCIES, GROUPS AND PERSONS:
On or about September 18, 2020, the Town of Crothersville will request the release federal funds from the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs (OCRA) for Community Development Block Grant Funds from the State of Indiana under Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (P.L. 93-383) for the following project:
Crothersville CSO Compliance Plan Requirements Project
The project consists address the components of the Combined Sewer Overflow Compliance Plan which is a result of the Agreed Order between the Town and IDEM. The proposed project includes the following activities: construct a new wet weather overflow main running parallel to the existing main sewer trunk line (approximately 2,000 LF); a short run gravity (potentially open cut) stream crossing to a newly constructed underground piping detention system (volume of 70,500 cubic feet)); install an in-line hydrodynamic storm water separator; construct a duplex wet weather pumping station and force main (approximately 600 LF of 24” force main) including required electrical 3 phase primary service; install plant gravity piping for redirection of wet weather flows; modify the CSO overflow piping; install disinfection facility (chlorination & de-chlorination systems) to treat wet weather flows; modify existing plant surge basins with concrete wall cores and discharge piping from surge basin #4 will be added with a new treated outfall structure into Hominy Ditch; install new effluent meter and automatic composite sampler to monitor treated wet weather discharge; modify existing Master SCADA Unit in the existing plant process control building; and convert a portion of an equipment storage building to house the wet weather pumping station control panel and the variable frequency drives.
Finding of No Significant Impact
It has been determined that such request for release of funds will not constitute an action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment and accordingly the above named Town of Crothersville has decided not to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement 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 regarding the proposed project has been made by the above named Town of Crothersville 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 file at the above address and is available for public examination and copying upon request the Crothersville Town Hall between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 4:30 P.M., Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and 8:00 A.M. to 12:00 P.M.

LEGAL NOTICE
Notice of Explanation of Project Located in a Floodplain/Wetland
This is to give notice that the Town of Crothersville has conducted an evaluation as required by Executive Order 11988 in accordance with HUD regulations at 24 CFR 55.20 to determine the potential affect that its activity in the floodplain will have on the environment. The Town of Crothersville has determined that there is not a practicable alternative other than locating the proposed Community Development Block Grant project described below in a floodplain.
The project is impacting the Hominy Ditch at the following (3) locations and manner:
Location 1 – 42″ sewer overflow line being installed across/under Hominy and is expected to impact up to 30 linear feet due to trench width plus construction working room.
Location 2 – Sanitary Manhole Structure 506 is being constructed (replacing existing structure). Excavation for the structure installation will extend into the Hominy Ditch banks and is expected to impact 60 linear feet. The disturbed bank will be stabilized with Class 1 Riprap at a 2:1 or flatter slope.
Location 3 – WWTP Surge Basin 30″ PVC outlet pipe will outlet near Hominy Ditch Bank and is expected to impact 20 linear foot. Riprap will extend into Hominy Ditch limits.
The proposed project includes work items as noted above in three locations within the bank of Hominy Ditch. The proposed project could impact an estimated 1,100 square feet (or 0.025 acres) of total floodplain with an approximate width of 10 feet wide with total length of 110 linear feet in the area of the Hominy Ditch. All work will take place within Flood Zone X. No work will take place in or adjacent to wetlands.
The improvements must be located in the floodplain due to the nature of the project; the work being competed is replacing existing infrastructure in the same footprint in the case of Location 1 and Location 2 and in close proximity to the existing outlet in Location 3. To move the existing infrastructure to a new location is not feasible and illogical. Therefore, the proposed plan indicated above was selected as the most viable option for the Town of Crothersville and is the preferred method of the regulatory agencies. The only potential direct impact on the 100-year floodplain will be the placement of riprap to protect from erosion at the completion of the installation of the infrastructure within the site. No special considerations will need to be made in the design of the proposed work. Standard erosion control measures will be utilized during construction and rip rap will be utilized at the completion of work taking place at Location 2 and Location 3 as noted in the proposed plan.
Practical Alternatives reviewed for all three locations include:
Location 1 (42” Sewer Line)
Option 1: Relocate Sewer Line
A review of the option to relocate the sewer line outside the potential flood area was completed by FPBH, Inc. This main is the replacement of the existing main and will be replaced at the same location and elevation as the existing main (it is just a larger main). This is a gravity main and due to the elevation of the topography and the necessary hydraulic flow requirements to transport the wastewater to the treatment plant, relocation was not considered feasible and not a viable alternative.
Option 2: No Action Alternative.
The engineer reviewed the option of not replacing the gravity main in this area. If this alternative was implemented the sanitary sewer would continue to overflow at the manholes located along this route which would be a direct violation of the NPDES permit and the Approved CSO Long Term Control Plan. These violations could lead to not only environmental impacts, but also fines for the community.
For these reasons the No Action Alternative is not considered a viable alternative.
Location 2 – Sanitary Manhole Structure 506
Option 1: Relocate Sanitary Manhole Structure 506
A review of the option to relocate Manhole 506 outside the potential flood area was completed by FPBH, Inc. This manhole is the replacement of the existing manhole and will be replaced at the same location and elevation as the existing manhole (it is just a larger manhole, which is necessary due to the increased size of the main). This manhole is part of the placed gravity main system and due to the elevation of the topography and the necessary hydraulic flow requirements to transport the wastewater to the treatment plant, relocation was not considered feasible and not a viable alternative.
Option 2: No Action Alternative.
The engineer reviewed the option of not replacing the manhole. If this alternative was implemented the sanitary sewer gravity main could not be installed and the system would continue to overflow at the manholes located along this route which would be a direct violation of the NPDES permit and the Approved CSO Long Term Control Plan. These violations could lead to not only environmental impacts, but also fines for the community.
For these reasons the No Action Alternative is not considered a viable alternative.
Location 3 – WWTP Surge Basin 30″ PVC outlet pipe
Option 1: Relocate Outlet Pipe
A review of the option to relocate the outlet pipe outside the potential flood area was completed by FPBH, Inc. This outlet pipe is the replacement of an existing outlet pipe. While located in a different area than the existing, the pipe is necessary to discharge flow of the plant treated CSO from the facility. The replacement of the existing pipe is necessary due to the inadequate size of the existing pipe. By function it is necessary to provide this outfall in a location to directly discharge into Hominy Ditch. An alternative to modify the existing was examined, but it too would require modification within the boundary of Hominy Ditch.
The discharge is a vital part of the Wastewater Treatment Process and is necessary to meet the requirements of the NPDES Permit and relocation outside the potential floodway of Hominy Ditch is not considered feasible and not a viable alternative.
Option 2: No Action Alternative.
The engineer reviewed the option of not replacing the outfall structure. If this alternative was implemented the exiting outfall structure would be undersized which would not allow the plant to discharge at the necessary rate required to meet the needs of the Wet Weather treatment facility. This inability to discharge at the necessary rate would lead to the system continued overflows in direct violation of the NPDES permit and the Approved CSO Long Term Control Plan. These violations could lead to not only environmental impacts, but also fines for the community.
By publication of this notice the Town of Crothersville is inviting any final written comments prior to undertaking the proposed action. All comments should be addressed to Town of Crothersville, Danieta Foster, Town Council President, 111 E. Howard Street, Crothersville, IN 47229 not later than September 10, 2020.

Notice is hereby given that the Scott County Board of Zoning Appeals will hold a public hearing at the Scott County Courthouse 1 E. McClain Avenue, Room 128, Scottsburg, IN on Wednesday, September 9, 2020, at 6:00 PM at which time all interested persons will be given the opportunity to be heard in reference to the matters set out in the “Description of Action Requested” below:
Case Number: V-06-20
Applicant: Sinjin J. Braden
Owner(s): Sinjin J. Braden
Present Zoning: A – Agriculture
Description of Action Requested: Applicant requests a variance from the Scott County Zoning Ordinance requirement for a 30-foot setback from side property line to allow the construction of a 30×30 (900 square feet) pole barn to serve as a garage and storage and work area.
Description of Property Affected: 72-06-07-300-019 .002-004 containing 2 acres and cka 5345 E. Blocher Road, Lexington, IN 47138
Reason(s) necessitating request: Applicant needs the variance because of the configuration of his property, which narrows toward the back. Additionally, the topography begins sloping past the present house. The location of the pole barn becomes an issue as to the side property line because, if moved, the structure will cover up a drainage line from the house. Moving it to the proposed site infringes on the side property line, leaving 10 feet as a setback. This location will also allow applicant to use his present driveway and provide an adequate turn radius to maneuver a vehicle into the garage and back it out without issues.
The petition (application) and file on this matter are available for public inspection during the regular working hours of the Scott County Courthouse, 1 E. McClain Avenue, Scottsburg, IN, Suite G40 until two business days prior to the hearing date. (812-752-8445, ext. 1)

No property listed below shall be sold if, at any time before the sale, the Total Amount for Judgment is paid in full. If the real property is sold in the tax sale, the amount required to redeem such property will be 110% of the minimum bid for which the tract or real property was offered at the time of sale, if redeemed not more than six (6) months after the date of sale, or 115% of the minimum bid for which the tract or real property was offered at the time of sale, if redeemed more than six (6) months after the date of sale, plus the amount by which the purchase price exceeds the minimum bid on the real property plus five percent (5%) per annum interest on the amount by which the purchase price exceeds the minimum bid on the property.
