We asked

Public comment was invited on the referral to help the EPA determine the appropriate level of assessment.

You said

There were three comments on the referral, two indicating an API-B and one a PER level of assessment.

We did

The EPA determined that the proposal did not require assessment but provided public advice. It is situated in a pine plantation and there are no significant environmental Impacts. However, the Department of Parks and Wildlife and the Forest Products Cornission are to make decisions regarding access to the pine plantation.
