(b) Construction and demolition:
Exclusion Text
(16) Army adoption and application of another Federal agency’s CX to proposed Army actions. Other Federal agency’s CXs may be adopted and applied by Army proponents to any proposed Army action occurring on or off Army property, on another Federal agency’s property, or on property where another Federal agency is operating, when the proposed Army action is substantially the same as an action that is categorically excluded by another Federal agency. A proposed Army action is substantially the same as an action categorically excluded by another Federal agency’s CX when it is of a similar type and scope as the action categorically excluded by another Federal agency, and no extraordinary circumstances exist. If the Army chooses to apply another Federal agency’s CX to address a proposed Army action, the Army proponent must document confirmation that the other Federal agency does not object to the Army’s use of their CX to address the proposed Army action. The Army proponent will document confirmation that the other Federal agency does not object to the Army’s use of their CX in the REC prepared for the proposed Army action (REC required).

When using the CE Explorer Tool, Federal agencies and stakeholders should review the relevant agency's NEPA procedures for information about how to apply the CE, including any limitations or potential extraordinary circumstances, and to ensure that a CE is current and applicable to a given proposed action. For ease of use, a link to each agency's NEPA procedures and CEs is provided along with the text of the CE.
