The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) proposes, through a cooperative agreement with Chemetall Foote Corporation (Chemetall) to partially fund: (1) the establishment of a new 5,000 metric ton per year lithium hydroxide plant at an existing Chemetall facility in Kings Mountain, North Carolina; and (2) the refurbishment and expansion of an existing lithium brine production facility and lithium carbonate plant in Silver Peak, Nevada.
The overall purpose and need for DOE action pursuant to the Vehicle Technologies Program and the funding opportunity under the Recovery Act are to accelerate the development and production of various electric drive vehicle systems by building or increasing domestic manufacturing capacity for advanced automotive batteries, their components, recycling facilities, and electric drive vehicle components in addition to stimulating the U.S. economy.
U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) prepared this Environmental Assessment (EA) to evaluate the potential environmental impacts of providing two types of financial assistance to Dow Kokam MI, LLC to construct and operate the Midland Battery Park for manufacturing of advanced lithium polymer batteries for hybrid and electric vehicles: (1) a grant under Funding Opportunity Announcement DE-FOA 0000026, Recovery Act – Electric Drive Vehicle Battery and Component Manufacturing Initiative and (2) a loan pursuant to Section 136 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 as an automotive component supplier promoting improved fuel economy in light-duty vehicles.

This Environmental Assessment (DOE/EA-1570) provides information and analysis of proposed U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) activities associated with constructing and operating facilities for a new neutrino physics research program called NOvA. The NOvA Collaboration is composed of almost 200 scientists and engineers from nearly 30 Universities and Laboratories around the world. The Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) is the lead laboratory for the DOE, and the University of Minnesota is the lead collaborating university through a Cooperative Agreement with the DOE. The program would generate neutrinos at Fermilab in Batavia, Illinois, for analysis in proposed detectors at Fermilab and at a Far Detector Facility proposed to be built near the Ash River, in St. Louis County, Minnesota.
