endangered species, land use, natural
areas and parks and recreation, geology,
soils, prime farmland, visual resources,
noise, cultural resources,
socioeconomics, solid and hazardous
waste, public and occupational health
and safety, utilities, and transportation.
Based on a preliminary evaluation of
these resources, potential impacts to
cultural resources through construction
of the facility are possible. Impacts to
vegetation and wildlife due to the
conversion of deciduous forest of
various ages to early maintained grassdominated fields may occur. Impacts to
water resources would likely be minor
with the use of best management
practices and avoidance of siting project
components in or near streams,
wetlands, and riparian areas to the
extent feasible. Land use would be
impacted by the conversion of farmland
to industrial use and the elimination of
current farming operations. This would
also result in visual impacts. Beneficial
impacts are expected by facilitating the
development of renewable energy and
thereby increasing local job
opportunities, as well as improving
regional air quality and reducing carbon
emissions. The environmental review
will analyze measures that would avoid,
minimize, or mitigate environmental
effects. The final range of issues to be
addressed in the environmental review
will be determined, in part, from
scoping comments received.

Request for Identification of Potential
Alternatives, Information, and
Analyses Relevant to the Proposed
Action
Public scoping is integral to the
process for implementing NEPA and
ensures that issues are identified early
and properly studied, issues of little
significance do not consume substantial
time and effort, and the analysis of those
issues is thorough and balanced. The
final range of issues to be addressed in
the environmental review will be
determined, in part, from scoping
comments received. TVA is particularly
interested in public input on other
reasonable alternatives that should be
considered in the review. The
preliminary identification of reasonable
alternatives and environmental issues in
this notice is not meant to be exhaustive
or final.
Public Participation
The public is invited to submit
comments on the scope of this
environmental review no later than the
date identified in the DATES section of
this notice. Federal, state, and local
agencies and Native American Tribes
are also invited to provide comments.

Information about this project is
available on the TVA web page at
www.tva.gov/nepa, including a link to
an online public comment page. Any
comments received, including names
and addresses, will become part of the
administrative record and will be
available for public inspection. After
consideration of comments received
during the scoping period, TVA will
develop and distribute a scoping
document that will summarize public
and agency comments that were
received and identify the schedule for
completing this process. Following
analysis of the issues, TVA will prepare
the draft environmental document for
public review and comment; expected
to be released early 2026. TVA
anticipates the final environmental
document in summer 2026. In finalizing
the document and in making its final
decision, TVA will consider the
comments that it receives on the draft.
