CATEGORICAL EXCLUSION FROM ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW

ADEM Fund Code 203

SRF Project No: FS010060-07

Marshall County

The Alabama Department of Environmental Management has made financial assistance available to the Municipal Utilities Board of the City of Albertville. In accordance with State and Federal regulations that govern the program, the Alabama Department of Environmental Management has conducted a review to assess the potential impacts upon the environment that may result from implementation of this project.

The Municipal Utilities Board of the City of Albertville proposes to perform pilot testing on treatment of PFAS throughout the Water Treatment system with an estimated total project cost of $300,000.00. The proposed project would ensure the correct method is chosen in order to comply with the proposed MCL limit (4 ppt).

The Alabama Department of Environmental Management has determined that the project qualifies for a Categorical Exclusion (CE) from further environmental study under the guidelines specified by the State Environmental Review Process (SERP), which specifically include projects where funding is being provided for planning and/or engineering costs only. However, this decision may be reconsidered if significant adverse information concerning the potential environmental impacts of the project is discovered. Comments relative to this project should be submitted in writing to Mrs. Kelly Bibb, SRF Branch, Permits & Services Division, Alabama Department of Environmental Management, P.O. Box 301463, Montgomery, Alabama 36130, no later than 30 days after the date of this notice. The Alabama Department of Environmental Management will not take formal action to proceed with the project without carefully evaluating any public comments opposing the project.

Notice is hereby given this 7th day of October, 2026, by authorization of the Alabama Department of Environmental Management.
