Comments: Although this project would have qualified as a CATEX (XV) under 44 CFR Part 10.8 (D)(2), this project 
meets the definition of critical infrastructure (Permanent Schools) under the Alternative Arrangements for NEPA 
Compliance. This project has conditions and requires mitigation under the other Environmental and Historic Preservation 
(EHP) Laws which are listed under the NEPA Level of Environmental Review in the Project Worksheet. Any changes to 
this approved scope ofwork will require submission to, and evaluation and approval by, the State and FEMA prior to 
initiation ofany work, for compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act. The applicant is required to obtain and 
comply with all local, state and federal permits and requirements. Non-compliance with the requirements noted above may 
jeopardize the receipt of federal funding.

V. Environmental Review Project Conditions 
General comments: None 

Project Conditions: 

1. 
If during the course of work, archaeological artifacts (prehistoric or historic) or human remains 
are discovered, the applicant shall stop work in the vicinity of the discovery and take all 
reasonable measures to avoid or minimize harm to the finds. The applicant shall inform their 
Public Assistance (PA) contacts at FEMA, who will in turn contact FEMA Historic 
Preservation staff. The applicant will not proceed with work until FEMA Historic Preservation 
staff have completed consultation with the Louisiana State Historic Preservation Officer 
(SHPO). In addition, if unmarked graves are present, compliance with the Louisiana Unmarked 
Human Burial Sites Preservation Act (R.S. 8:671 ET SEQ.) is required. The applicant shall 
notify the law enforcement agency of the jurisdiction where the remains are located within 
twenty-four hours of the discovery. The applicant shall also notify FEMA and the Louisiana 
Unmarked Burial Sites Board (call the Louisiana Division of Archeology at 225-342-8170) 
within seventy-two hours of the discovery. Failure to comply with these stipulations may 
jeopardize receipt of FEMA funding. 
2. 
Unusable equipment, debris and material shall be disposed of in an approved manner and 
location. In the event significant items (or evidence thereof) are discovered during 
implementation ofthe project applicant shall handle, manage, and dispose ofpetroleum 
products, hazardous materials and/or toxic waste in accordance to the requirements and to the 
satisfaction of the governing local, state and federal agencies. 
3. 
Removal and disposal of debris containing household hazardous waste and certain categories of 
liquid wastes must be performed in accordance with all applicable federal and state laws, 
regulations, executive orders and guidelines. LAC Title 33 Part VII requires that specified 
items, including lead acid batteries, used oil filters, used motor oil, scrap tires, CFC's 
(refrigerants), radioactive waste or regulated infectious wastes must be segregated from and 
excluded from non-hazardous debris collection, staging, processing and disposal sites. Failure 
to comply with applicable legal requirements in debris collection and/or disposal operations 
will jeopardize federal funding. The clean-up or restoration/repair of sites damaged as a result 
of such operations are ineligible for federal funding. Previously obligated funding is subject to 
de-obligation if a determination of ineligibility is made. Applicants managing debris staging, 
processing, burning or disposal sites (other than previously permitted landfills) that have been 
permitted by Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality must also complete an 
Emergency Debris Management Site Certification (Self Certification) regarding compliance 
with all applicable substantive laws and executive orders.

4. 
In accordance with the Formosan Termite Initiative Act, (LA R.S. 3:3391.1 thru 3391.13) the 
Louisiana Parishes of Calcasieu, Cameron, Jefferson Davis, Orleans, Jefferson, Plaquemines, 
St. Bernard, St. Charles, St. John the Baptist, St. Tammany, Tangipahoa and Washington are 
under quarantine. The movement of wood or cellulose material, temporary housing or 
architectural components (e.g. beams, doors and other wood salvaged from a structure) may not 
leave the quarantined parishes without written authorization from the commissioner of the 
Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry or his Designee(s). 
5. 
Regardless of the asbestos content, the applicant is responsible for ensuring that renovation or 
demolition activities are coordinated with the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality 
(LDEQ) in accordance with the LDEQ "Seventh Amended Declaration of Emergency and 
Administrative Order" dated August 28, 2006 or latest amended declaration, incorporating the 
provisions of EPA's National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) and 
the Louisiana Administrative Code (LAC) 33.UI.5151 and Chapter 27. Should Asbestos 
Containing Materials (ACMS) bepresentattheprojectsite,theapplicantisalsoresponsible for 
ensuringproperdisposalinaccordancewiththepreviouslyreferencedadministrative order. 
6. 
Activities involving abrading (sanding, scraping, etc.), heating, stripping, or otherwise 
concentrating Lead Based Paint (LBP) shall comply with applicable provisions of 29 CFR Parts 
1910 and 1926 (OSHA -Worker Safety), and 40 CFR 260 through 268 (EPA -Hazardous 
Waste). The applicant is responsible for ensuring that renovation or demolition activities are 
coordinated with the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality for abatement activities 
and is also responsible for ensuring proper disposal in accordance with the previously 
referenced regulations. 
7. 
Thisprojectpotentiallyinvolvesthedisposalofmetallicmercurycontainingelectronic devices. 
The applicant is responsible for ensuring that these devices are recovered, recycled, reused or 
sequestered in accordance with the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) 
"Declaration of Emergency; Mercury-Containing Devices and Electronic Equipment as 
Universal Waste" letter dated October 3, 2005. 
8. 
The scope of work to replace a structure to pre-disaster condition with upgrades and 
improvements, in order to meet current codes and standards, is not expected to change the 
original footprint. In the event these upgrades and improvements result in a change to the 
overall footprint, a subsequent change to this scope of work will be required. Any change to the 
project scope of work will require re-submission through the state to FEMA and consequently 
requires re-evaluation for compliance with National Environmental Policies. Non-compliance 
with this requirement may jeopardize receipt of federal funds. 
Monitoring Requirements: None
