Corps seeks public comment on Draft Tiered Environmental Assessment, R-562 PL 84-99 Levee Rehabilitation

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ draft tiered environmental assessment (EA) for the R-562 Public Law (PL) 84-99 levee rehabilitation is currently available for public review. The EA evaluates the environmental impacts of correcting damages to the R-562 levee system, caused by the flood on the Missouri River in 2019. These damages have compromised the level of flood protection that the levee system provides and poses a risk to property and life safety. Repairs to the levee system are needed to address this risk to property and life safety by restoring a level of flood protection to the leveed area. The proposed project is located between Missouri River miles 541.5-549.0 in Otoe and Nemaha Counties, Nebraska.
