CATEGORICAL EXCLUSION
DETERMINATION
FOR THE PROPOSED PROJECT
OF: Beach (Golden Valley County),
North Dakota
DRINKING WATER STATE RE-
VOLVING FUND PROJECT NUMBER:
1700059-01
The North Dakota Department of
Environmental Quality (NDDEQ) has
conducted a review of the proposed
2021 Street & Utility Improvements for
the City of Beach in accordance with
the National Environmental Policy Act
(40 CFR Part 6). The NDDEQ has de-
termined that this project is eligible for a
Categorical Exclusion and is exempt
from further substantive environmental
review.
Because the proposed project
meets the criteria for a categorical ex-
clusion, a full Finding of No Significant
Impact and Environmental Assessment
will not be required. Following is a de-

scription of the proposed project and a
brief statement of how the. project
meets the criteria for a categorical ex-
clusion.
The proposed project consists of re-
placement ot existing cast iron water
pipe, removal and replacement of lead
service lines and watermain looping
within the south side of the City of
Beach. The existing cast iron water-
main is in poor condition and has many
issues such as scaling and corrosion.
These issues have resulted in addi-
tional problems such as poor chlorine
residuals, discolored water and inade-
quate flows. The City has experienced
increasing operation and maintenance
costs dueuto more frequent system
flushing, leaks and breaks.
The proposed project will provide
adequate flow capacity of safe drinking
water, as well as reduced exposure of
1 lead in drinking water, for the citizens
within the City of Beach. Replacing the
existing cast iron mains will improve
chlorine residuals, improve reliability of
the water distribution system, and re-
duce operation and maintenance costs
from pipeline breaks.
The City of Beach has applied for a
Drinking Water State Revolving Fund
loan of $2,074,000 to finance the proj-
ect. The City has the legal authority and
administrative capability to construct
the proposed impr0vements.
This project is behiy granted an ex-
clusion because the new watermains
will be placed in previously disturbed
areas. No previously undisturbed areas
will be affected by the construction ac-
tivities. The North Dakota State Historic
Preservation Officer has concurred with
a determination of “No Historic Proper-
ties Affected" for this project provided it
takes place in the location and in the
manner described in the documentation
and provided all borrow comes from an
approved source (ND SHPO Ref.: 20—
5669).
It has been determined that ex-
empting the proposed project from fur—
ther review under the National
Environmental Policy Act will not result
in adverse impacts to the population or
area of Beach and Golden Valley
County.
The documentation to support this
decision will be on file and available for,
public review at the NDDEQ, Division of
Municipal Facilities.
Comments concerning this decision
may be addressed to Mitchell Murray,
Environmental Engineer, Division of
Municipal Facilities, North Dakota De-
partment of Environmental Quality, 918

Extension: Older
adults can reduce
falling risk
Falls are the leading cause of in-
jury arid death for older Americans.
“The consequences of falls are
substantial, including serious injury,
loss of independent living and limits
on physical activity,” says Jane
Strommen, North Dakota State Uni-
versity Extension gerontology spe-
cialist.
In 2018, falls were the leading
cause of unintentional injury deaths
for North Dakota residents age 60
and older. Eighty fall-related deaths
occurred among this age group in
2018.
Nationally, one out of every four
people 65 and older falls each year.
In 2020, the total cost of falls injuries
is projected to reach $67.7 billion.
The chances of falling and being
seriously injured increase with age.
However, falls are not a normal part
of aging.
“By reducing the risk of falls,
older adults can increase their qual-
ity of life and save thousands of dol-
lars in health-care and long-term care
costs,” Strommen says.
As the baby-boomer generation
continues to age, interventions de—
signed to maintain independence,
mobility and quality of life will be in—
creasingly important. Older adults
can take control of their health by
following these recommendations to
prevent falls:
- Find a good balance and exer—
cise program that builds balance,
strength and flexibility.
- Talk to your health—care provider
and ask for an assessment of your
risk of falling.
- Review your medications with
your pharmacist or doctor. Make sure
side effects aren’t increasing your
risk of falling.
Get your vision checked annu-
ally and update your eyeglasses as
needed.
' Keep your home safe. Increase
lighting, remove tripping hazards, in-
stall grab bars and make stairs safe.
Assess your footwear for safety.
Look for supportive shoes, a good fit,
a $016 that grips, and a heel that is sta-
ble and grips.
Another imponant tip is to sign up
for a falls prevention class. Many
communities in North Dakota pro-
vide falls prevention classes called
Stepping On for people age 60 and
older. Participants hear from com-
munity experts such as pharmacists
and Vision specialists, and learn
about strength and balance exercises
fromphysical therapists. I
While the Stepping On program is
not available due to coronavirus re-
strictions, those interested can join a
waiting list and will be contacted
when the program is available.
For more information about Step-
ping On or to request a home safety
checklist, contact Strommen at 701-
231-5948 or
