The study area includes a 24-km segment of the Boulder River in and around Basin, Montana and three principal tributaries to the Boulder River: Basin Creek, Cataract Creek, and High Ore Creek. Mine and prospect waste dumps and mill wastes are located throughout the drainage basins of these tributaries and in the Boulder River. Mine-waste material has been transported into and down streams, where it has mixed with and become incorporated into the streambed sediments. In some localities, mine waste material was placed directly in stream channels and was transported downstream forming fluvial tailings deposits along the stream banks. Water quality and aquatic habitat have been affected by trace-element-contaminated sediment that moves from mine wastes into and down streams during snowmelt and storm runoff events within the Boulder River watershed. Present-day trace element concentrations in the streambed sediments and fluvial tailings have been extensively studied. However, in order to accurately evaluate the impact of mining on the stream environments, it is also necessary to evaluate the pre-mining trace-element concentrations in the streambed sediments. Three types of samples have been collected for estimation of pre-mining concentrations: (1) streambed sediment samples from the Boulder River and its tributaries located upstream from historical mining activity, (2) stream terrace deposits located both upstream and downstream of the major tributaries along the Boulder River, and (3) cores through sediment in overbank deposits, in abandoned stream channels, or beneath fluvial tailings deposits. In this report, we present geochemical data for six stream-terrace samples and twelve sediment-core samples and lead isotopic data for six terrace and thirteen core samples. JF - Open-file Report.

The model was developed from a calibration data set consisting of information on MTBE in water samples collected from 1,042 wells. MTBE was detected at concentrations equal to or exceeding 0.5 micrograms per liter in 104 samples, but at concentrations equal to or exceeding 5.0 micrograms per liter in only 14 samples. Thus, the model was developed to predict the occurrence of MTBE at greater than or equal to 0.5 micrograms per liter. A number of factors that describe the conditions in the vicinity of the well were related to the frequency of detection of MTBE but three factors, or variables, most effectively explain MTBE occurrence in a multivariate logistic regression model: MTBE use in gasoline in the study area, the density of above and underground storage tanks, and a soil erodability factor.

Single diffusion samplers were placed in 10-foot-long well screens, and multiple diffusion samplers were positioned in 20-foot-long well screens. Overall, the data suggest that the use of diffusion samplers provided an alternative sampling method to the purge-and-sample approach. JF - Open-file Report.

Methylmercury is of particular concern because it is the most prevalent form of mercury in fish and is a potent neurotoxin that bioaccumulates at successive trophic levels within food webs. Fish were collected from 5 reservoirs and 14 stream sites during August through October 1999 to assess the distribution of mercury in these watersheds. Fish that were collected from reservoirs included top trophic level predators (black basses, Micropterus spp.), intermediate trophic level predators (sunfish (blue gill, Lepomis macrochirus green sunfish, Lepomis cyanellus ; and black crappie, Poxomis nigromaculatus)), and recovery in mining areas of the Sierra Nevada benthic omnivores (channel catfish, Ictularus punctatus).

The work includes monitoring to determine the spatial and temporal distribution of contaminants; research to determine sources, transport, transformations, and fate of contaminants, and assessments of vulnerability. Much of the work is conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and other Federal, State, Tribal, and local governments, to help provide a scientific basis for resource management and regulation. Examples of recent results are presented for two broad categories of drinking-water projects: occurrence studies, and source-water assessments. JF - Open-file Report.

This project is part of the Boulder River watershed Abandoned Mine Lands Initiative, and is a collaborative effort between the U.S. Geological Survey and Bureau of Land Management in the U.S. Department of the Interior, and the U.S. Forest Service in the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The site includes a large flotation milltailing deposit, which extends to the stream and meadows below the mine. These tailings contain elevated levels of metals, such as silver, cadmium, copper, lead, and zinc. Metal- rich fluvial tailings containing these metals, are possible sources of ground and surface water contamination. Geophysical methods were used to characterize the sediments at the Buckeye mine site. Ground geophysical surveys, including electromagnetics, DC resistivity, and total field magnetic methods, were used to delineate anomalies that probably correlate with subsurface metal contamination. Subsurface conductivity was mapped using EM-31 and EM-34 terrain conductivity measuring systems. The conductivity maps represent variation of concentration of dissolved solids in the subsurface from a few meters, to an approximate depth of 30 meters. JF - Open-File Report.

The Bathymetry and Acoustic Backscatter of the Pinnacles Area, Northern Gulf of Mexico AN - 17344470; 6261554 AB - An extensive deep (approx. 100 m) reef tract occurs on the Mississippi-Alabama outer continental shelf (OCS). The tract, known as 'The Pinnacles', is apparently part of a sequence of drowned reef complexes along the '40-fathom' shelf edge of the northern Gulf of Mexico (Ludwick and Walton, 1957). It is critical to determine the accurate geomorphology of deep-reefs because of their importance as benthic habitats for fisheries. Our objective was to map as large an area of the outer shelf deep reefs off Alabama- Mississippi as the project budget allowed using a state- of-the-art multibeam mapping system. The cruise used a Kongsberg Simrad EM1002, the latest generation of highresolution multibeam mapping systems (HRMBS). The EM1002 produces both accurate georeferenced bathymetry and coregistered, calibrated, acoustic backscatter. JF - Open-file Report.

The map shows epicenters of known earthquakes of magnitude 3 and larger over the northeastern United States and adjacent parts of Canada and the Atlantic Ocean. The map area covers more than 1.3 million square kilometers, and part or all of 14 States and four Canadian Provinces. No existing earthquake catalog provided current, uniform coverage down to magnitude 3, so a catalog had to be made for the map. Because the map is an outreach product, in each State or Province it had to match the way earthquakes are represented by whatever source is regarded as authoritative by the citizens and agencies of that State or Province. This report outlines procedures that produced the catalog for the map. JF - Open-file Report.

Cement Creek is acidic and enriched in metals and sulfate because it is fed by discharges from abandoned mines and natural mineral deposits. Mixing with the Animas River raises the pH and produces precipitates of iron and aluminum (oxy)hydroxides, which in turn can adsorb other metals. This confluence was studied in 1996 and 1997 to better understand mixing and sorption processes which are common during the neutralization of acidic streams. The photographs in this report show flow braiding and other features that influenced the way the two streams mixed during the late summers of the two years. They also show 'banding' due to incomplete mixing and 'opalescence' due to chemical reactions and the formation of colloidal-size particles in the mixing zone. JF - Open-file Report.

A Characterization of the Vertical- Displacement Field in Both Space and Time during the Period 1978- 1989 AN - 17331651; 6261561 AB - Analysis of the results of repeated levelings through the epicentral region of the M w 6.7, 1994 Northridge earthquake has disclosed the occurrence of differential uplift in this area that preceded the earthquake. Although the distribution of the relevant vertical-control data is somewhat sparse, in both space and time, those data that we have recovered indicate that this uplift exceeded 0.10 m and peaked 20-25 km west of the 1994 epicenter. While our data also indicate that this deformational event must have occurred during the period 1978-1989, evidence based on the character and magnitude of misclosures developed from 1987 and 1989 surveys argue that the deformation occurred largely during the period 1987-1989. The preseismic vertical-displacement field that preceded the Northridge earthquake is similar in form and, less certainly, magnitude to that which preceded the M w 6.7, 1971 San Fernando earthquake; other possible, but less significant southern California analogues include the deformational events that preceded the M w 5.3, 1973 Point Mugu and M w 5.9, 1987 Whittier Narrows earthquakes. The small but growing number of recognized aseismic deformational episodes that preceded small to moderate magnitude earthquakes in southern California suggests that the deployment of the dense array of continuously recording GPS receivers planned for southern California can be expected to detect and more accurately describe such events than was heretofore possible. Moreover, if the relation between the duration of these deformational anomalies and the magnitudes of any ensuing earthquakes can be much more clearly established, the near perfect temporal control on position afforded by GPS suggests that we may be on the threshold of a realistic earthquake warning system.

AN - 16352015; 7751 AB - PURPOSE: The disposal and reuse of the remaining surplus property at Homestead Air Force Base (AFB), located in southern Florida, is proposed. The 2,938-acre base is located within five miles of the cities of Homestead and Florida City, and 20 miles south of Miami; the AFB was significantly damaged by Hurricane Andrew in August 1992. As a result of recommendations made by the 1993 Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission, Homestead AFB was scheduled to be realigned on March 31, 1994. A final EIS of February 1994 addressed the disposal of approximately 2,055 acres of the base, including all or parts of the airfield, aviation support, industrial, commercial, residential, and recreation areas. An additional 868 acres, roughly 30 percent of the total base area, was retained by the United States government and used in military/government cantonments. The government units that continue to use the facility include the Air Force Reserves 482nd Fighter Wing and 301st Rescue Squadron, the Florida Air National Guard, and the U.S. Customs Service. Air Force policy is to encourage timely community reuse planning by offering to use the community's plan for facility reuse or development as the proposed action of the Air Force. Five alternatives, including the No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft supplement to the final EIS. The proposed action would include the transfer of the remaining surplus property at Homestead AFB, approximately 1,632 acres including the airfield, to Miami-Dade County for the development of a one-runway commercial airport, designated the Homestead Regional Airport. The airport would function primarily for scheduled air passenger services, with some unscheduled passenger charters, air freight, air cargo, and general aviation flights also accommodated. The runway at Homestead would accommodate all types of aircraft in the civil fleet and remain active in the future in any case to serve military and US Customs Service aircraft. Given the modest numbers of military/government aircraft, Miami-Dade County's proposal would match the circumstances of an under-utilized runway with a future need for additional commercial runway capacity. The surplus property proposed for transfer would include the airfield and its runway, covering approximately 915 acres, and approximately 327 acres expected to be used for aviation support activities. The initial development would include approximately 350,000 square feet (sf) of new facilities and 180,000 sf of reused facilities. Further expansion of passenger terminals and cargo and maintenance hangars could result in approximately 1.4 million square feet of new facilities by 2015 and a total facility area of 2.4 million square feet by full buildout. The development would also include roadway and access improvements and the construction of parking areas for employees, passengers, and customers. About 339 acres would be developed for airport-related and other industrial and commercial businesses. Commercial development, principally between 2005 and 2015, would result in about 1.6 million sf of facilities. Industrial development would likely be similar. This land could accommodate about 3.8 million sf of new commercial and industrial at full buildout. A 24-acre vacant area between the existing Job Corps and Homeless Trust Center would be used for educational, local government, or other institutional use. The 28 acres of open space around Mystic Lake would remain as such. The lake would retain stormwater and could be developed for informal public recreation. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The conversion of the base from military to civilian uses and the retention and reuse of most existing facilities would result in long-term development opportunities and cost savings for the local community. The redevelopment activities would generate employment. The redevelopment project would provide increased income and earnings and generally improve related economic indicators. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The redevelopment activities would increase congestion on area roads, increasing daily vehicular trips significantly. Hazardous materials handling and waste generation would increase, largely as a result of asbestos removal from buildings and greater reliance on pesticides. A significant area would be exposed to noise levels in excess of 65 decibels; Biscayne and Everglades national parks would experience increased aircraft noise. Carbon monoxide and volatile organic compound emissions would increase, but these increases would not affect the area's attainment of the ozone standard. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon emission would also increase.

Preparation date: December 30, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - HIGH DESERT POWER PROJECT, SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, AN - 36416018; 7749 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a 700-megawatt (700-MW), combined-cycle, natural-gas-fueled, electrical generation power plant, located in southeastern California, is proposed. The California Energy Commission (CEC), in its 1996 Electricity Report, projected a need for 6,737 MW of additional generating capacity for the state. As one of the first merchant power plants in California, the HDPP would serve to meet part of this projected need for additional electricity supply. Issues and concerns identified in the scoping and CEC site certification process include potential effects on special status species, compliance with Federal Aviation Administration regulations pertaining to emission stack heights, air quality impacts resulting from power plant emissions, and hazardous materials management. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternatives, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the applicant's proposal, the project would include a 25-acre power plant located in the northeastern corner of the Southern California Logistics Airport (SCLA) within the city of Victorville (the SCLA was previously named the Southern California International Airport), a 24-acre staging area to be used during construction; a potable water and sewer connection, a 3.5-mile natural gas pipeline to the south with a tap station at the southern terminus and a 32-mile natural gas pipeline to the north with two tap stations at the northern terminus, a 6.5-mile water pipeline to the south and a 2.5-mile water pipeline to the north with seven water injection/extraction wells, and a seven-mile 230-kilovolt transmission line to the south to provide a connection from the plant site with the Victor Substation. Water requirements would be approximately 4,000-acre-feet per year. Water, which would be used primarily for power plant cooling, would be supplied through a conjunctive use plan with two water supplies, namely, imported State Water Project water purchased from the Mojave Water Agency or the extraction of SWP water which has been previously treated, injected, and banked in the regional aquifer. Water supply facilities would be constructed, owned, and operated by the HDPP or contracted with the Victor Valley Water District. The HDPP would also enter into a contract with Southern California Edison Company, whereby the latter would construct, own, and operate the necessary transmission interconnection facilities for the project. Southwest Gas Corporation would construct, own, and operate the two natural gas pipelines that would provide fuel to the power plant. The two other action alternatives would include the use of a wet/dry cooling system instead of the wet cooling system and the elimination of the 32-mile natural gas pipeline from the design. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plant capacity would help meet the energy needs of the entire state and provide employment opportunities locally. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Certain features of the HDPP would be located in areas that provide habitat for endangered or threatened animal species. Hence, planned construction, operation, and maintenance activities could result in incidental taking of one or more of these species. Species possibly affected include the threatened desert tortoise and the potentially protected Mohave ground squirrel. The plant would consume approximately 4,000 acre-feet of water per year under the proposed action; 40 percent less water would be consumed if a wet/dry cooling system were chosen. The plant operation would result in emissions of oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, volatile organic compounds, sulfur dioxide, particulate matter, sulfate, and toxic air pollutants. Certain emissions could contribute to the violation of state or federal ambient air quality standards. The operations would cause increase cancer risks from emissions of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, acrolein, and sulfate emissions. The project facilities and emissions would be visible from sensitive viewpoints. Paleontological and cultural resource sites could be disturbed. The level of service on local roads would decline due to construction-related traffic.

Preparation date: December 29, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NORTH BANK HABITAT MANAGEMENT AREA/AREA OF CRITICAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN, DOUGLAS COUNTY, OREGON. AN - 36413485; 7740 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the 6,581-acre North Bank Habitat Management Area (NBHMA), located in northeast of the city of Roseburg in southwestern Oregon, is proposed. More specifically, the area is on the north side of the North Umpqua River across from Whistler's Bend Park. Portions of the southern boundary extend to County Road 2000 (North Bank Road). The area was acquired by the Bureau of Land Management in 1994 though an exchange of 360 acres of Oregon & California Railroad lands. Due to the area's value as habitat for Columbian white-tailed deer (CWTD) and other sensitive species, 6,221 acres within the management area were designated as an Area of Critical Environmental Concern. The remaining acres are to be managed for timber production. The CWTD is one of approximately 30 subspecies of white-tailed deer found in North America. The species is the western-most population of white-tailed deer and is genetically isolated from other subspecies. Formerly, CWTD occupied the Umpqua and Willamette valleys and the Lower Columbia River north to the Cowlitz River bottoms in Washington. Currently, two remnant populations persist, one in the floodplain of the Lower Columbia River and the Roseburg population within the Umpqua Basin. The species was federally listed as endangered in 1967 when the Columbia River population was estimated at 300 to 400 animals and the population was threatened by continuing habitat destruction in riparian areas. Oregon listed the species as endangered in 1975. According to the CWTD Recovery Plan, the Roseburg population would meet recovery objectives for delisting when the species has a minimum viable population of 500 deer distributed within a minimum of 5,500 acres of secure habitat. Current estimates of the Roseburg population indicate that the number of CWTD exceeds 5,000 animals. The NBHMA provides habitat for an estimated 200 to 350 CWTD and approximately 550 to 640 CWTD reside on secure habitat in the Umpqua Basin. In 1994, the state downlisted the CWTD from endangered to sensitive, Furthermore, federal objectives for downlisting have been met and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service proposed delisting on May 11, 1999. Nevertheless, CWTD reproduction is very low, and fawn survival during the first month of life is less than 50 percent. Issues identified during scoping for this draft EIS include those related to CWTD and other special status species, recreational use and facility development, water quality and quantity, and riparian and wetland habitat. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in the draft EIS. The proposed action (Alternative C) would involve active management that would enhance CWTD habitat as well as habitat for other special status species, including plant species. The plan would include 32 miles of road maintenance, recreational facilities development, parking and restroom facilities development, pullout expansion, wildlife viewing site development, environmental education program development, tours and special access provisions, recreational trail development, vegetation treatments, research programs, perennial water source development, artificial wildlife structure installation, grazing management provisions, and means to discourage conifer encroachment. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In addition to providing protection and enhancement of habitat for CWTD and other sensitive species, the plan would provide unique recreational opportunities associated with the viewing of and learning about the targeted species. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The facilities development would adversely affect some special status animals. The limitations on public use to protect CWTD and other species would be seen as burdensome to certain visitors. Camping activities and road use would result in erosion and sedimentation of receiving waters.

Preparation date: December 21, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CORTINA INTEGRATED WASTE MANAGEMENT PROJECT, CORTINA INDIAN RANCHERIA OF WINTUN INDIANS, COLUSA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 16354810; 7717 AB - PURPOSE: The approval of a lease between the Cortina Indian Rancheria of Wintun Indians and Cortina Integrated Waste Management, Inc. (CIWMI) to allow for the development and operation of an integrated solid waste management project, located on the Cortina Indian Rancheria in north-central California, is proposed. More specifically, the project would be located in the rugged eastern foothills of the Coast Ranges on the west side of the Sacramento Valley, approximately 50 miles northwest of Sacramento. Members of the Cortina Band live under difficult socioeconomic circumstances, characterized by high unemployment due to a lack of job opportunities, an average annual income below the poverty line and, in many cases, substandard housing. The Band would use the project to address this situation. Through a combination of lease revenues, tipping-fee arrangements, and sales to the recycling market, the project would provide long-term revenue to the Band. The project would involve shipment of wastes to the Rancheria for recovery of recyclable materials and disposal of non-recyclable wastes. Recyclable materials would be transported to various market destinations. The term of the lease would be 25 years, renewable for an additional 25 years. The lease would further obligate CIWMI to post-closure maintenance responsibilities for a period of at least 30 years after final closure. The project facilities would be designed, constructed, operated, closed, and maintained during post-closure by Pacific Waste Services, Inc. CIWMI is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Earthworks Industries, Inc. Four alternatives, including the lease applicant's proposal two reduced projects and a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The landfill would be a Class III solid waste facility, which means that the facility would be designated for disposal of non-hazardous municipal wastes only. The facility would be developed in four separate phases, which would be constructed sequentially. These four phases would ultimately cover 125 acres but, at any point in time, the active portion of the landfill (i.e., the working face where refuse would be placed, compacted, and covered) would typically be only 5,000 to 10,000 square feet (less than 0.25 acre). The capacity of the landfill would be approximately 19 million cubic yards, which is equivalent to 12 to 15 million tons of waste. The initial waste delivery rate to the facility would be 300 tons per day (tpd); the maximum waste delivery rate would be 1,500 tpd. The landfill would operate as a balefill, meaning that waste would be mechanically baled before placement into the ground. The operation would include a material recovery facility, composting facility, and petroleum-contaminated soil bioremediation facility. One alternative would eliminate the composting and bioremediation facilities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The lease would generate revenue to promote the socioeconomic advancement of the Cortina Band, enabling it to increase funding for education, housing, health care, and other programs and undertake development needed to improve tribal living conditions. In addition, the project would provide direct and indirect employment opportunities both need by and suitable for Band members. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Depending on the action alternative selected, project operations would disturb 192 to 213 acres, consume 30,000 to 50,000 gallons of water per day, and generate 208 to 227 truck trips per day. The latter impact would result in some increase in the need for road maintenance and intersection and pavement upgrades on Spring Valley Road. Noise generated by the project would be at or near significant levels.

Preparation date: December 9, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - REACH 1 EVALUATION OF INTERIM PLAN FOR STORM DAMAGE PROTECTION, ATLANTIC COAST OF LONG ISLAND, FIRE ISLAND TO MONTAUK POINT, LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK AN - 36413429; 7712 AB - PURPOSE: The provision of interim storm damage protection for the area of shoreline extending from Fire Island Inlet to Moriches Inlet on Long Island, located in southeastern New York, is proposed. The south shore of Long Island has repeatedly suffered devastating impacts from storms of both extra-tropical (northeasters) and tropical origin, including major northeasters in 1950, 1962, 1979, 1984, 1991, 1992, and 1993. Much of the area to be protected lies within the Fire Island National Seashore. The project would be part of a larger beach erosion and hurricane protection project covering the area extending from Fire Island Inlet to Montauk Point. The project would constitute an interim measure to provide protection until the overall reformulation of the authorized project was complete and the results potentially implemented. The overall Fire Island Inlet to Montauk Point project was originally authorized to include a beach berm at an elevation of 14 feet National Geodetic Vertical Datum (NVGD), backed by a dune system with a crest elevation of 20 feet NGVD. The interim plan would consist of sections of beach berm at an elevation of 9.5 NGVD, backed by a dune system with an elevation of 15 feet NGVD, over the 15,000-foot as well as sections of beach berm at an elevation of 11.5 feet NGVD, with a dune elevation of 18 feet NGVD with an overall length of 16,750 feet and sections of beach with no dune fill with an overall length of 28,200 feet. Sand beaches would be placed on 11.3 miles of Fire Island Atlantic shoreline, covering approximately 38 percent of the length of the 31-mile-long island. Sand dune fill would be placed on six miles of shoreline, extending approximately 20 percent of the length of the island. The sand for the beach fill would be taken from the ocean floor in an area of about 3,000 acres, centered approximately 1.3 miles off shore. The estimated initial cost of the interim plan is $52.9 million. The federal and non-federal costs are $34.4 million and $18.5 million, respectively. The estimated benefit-cost ratio is 1.3. POSITIVE IMPACTS: By providing protection against hurricane-force storms, the project would ensure the safety of the human and non-human populations of the study area and reduce damage to structures and landscapes on the island. Approximately 12,000 structures on the mainland and 3,100 structures on the barrier island would receive some level of protection. Approximately 80 percent of the benefits derived from the project would redound to areas adjacent to the Great South Bay. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The disposition of beach fill would destroy benthic habitat and on-shore vegetation and associated habitat, including habitat for the piping plover and the seabeach amaranth, both of which are federally-protected species, result in short-term turbidity in the near-shore area. The use of the shoreline by fish and avian species would be temporarily disrupted.

Preparation date: December 6, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SLEEPING BEAR DUNES NATIONAL LAKESHORE, BENZIE AND LEELANAU COUNTIES, MICHIGAN. AN - 16342904; 7711 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a historic property management plan for the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore of Michigan is proposed. The Lakeshore, which is located in Michigan's northwestern Lower Peninsula at the base of the Leelanau Peninsula approximately 25 miles west of Traverse City, encompasses a 60-mile stretch of Lake Michigan's eastern coastline, including the coastline of North and South Manitou Islands. The Lakeshore was established primarily to preserve its outstanding natural features, including forests, beaches, dune formations, and ancient glacial phenomena. The area provides habitat to over 700 plant species, more than 45 species of mammals, and 250 bird species. The area also contains many cultural features including an 1871 lighthouse, three former Life-Saving/Coast Guard Stations and an extensive Rural Historic Farm district. Open throughout the year, the area was visited by 1.3 million recreationists in 1998. The plan is a conceptual document that would establish and articulate a management philosophy and framework for decision making and problem solving. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative I), which would continue current management, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative III) would emphasize the rehabilitation and adaptive use of historic structures through partnership agreements, and could also include preservation actions. It would also permit limited compatible uses of cultural landscapes. The National Park Service could adapt historic structures for its use. The plan would guide the park's historic resource management practices for the next 10 to 20 years. Alternative II would emphasize the preservation of the exteriors of structures through partnership agreements, with no adaptive uses by partners. Minimal actions would occur in the cultural landscapes. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would protect all structures and cultural landscapes designated or recommended for designation as significant that were not already protected, prioritize structures and cultural landscapes for preservation efforts based on their historic significance, develop a wide range of preservation strategies and tools, and facilitate the use of private resources to assist in the preservation of Lakeshore historic properties. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preservation activities would adversely affect the sense of solitude on four wilderness landscapes and otherwise restrict visitors' use of the area, disturb vegetation and soils, and displace wildlife.

AN - 36406256; 7707 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Vancouver National Historic Reserve, located in southwestern Washington, is proposed. Vancouver and the area designated as the reserve have played a central role in significant events in the history of the West and the Pacific Northwest. This influence extended from the Indian nations long established by the time of Lewis and Clark, through the fur and trade monopoly of the British Empire in the Oregon Territory, to the U.S. Army's continuing presence beginning in 1849. The 366-acre reserve contains the Fort Vancouver Historic Site, Vancouver Barracks, Officers Row, Pearson Field, the Water Resources Education Center, a marine park, and portions of the Columbia River waterfront. The reserve will be managed by a partnership involving the National Park Service, the Department of the Army, the Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative C), were considered in this draft EIS. The goals of the preferred alternative (Alternative A) would be preservation of historic structures, physical assets, and cultural landscapes; education on and interpretation of the significance and history of the area for public benefit; and public use of and accessibility to the reserve. These overlapping goals would be reached through public and private partnerships and funding to ensure economic balance an sustainability for all new endeavors. In addition to restoration of structures and landscapes, the plan would provide for a visitors' center, interpretative facilities throughout the site, and access, circulation, and parking facilities. Alternative B would involve restoration of more historic structures and landscapes than under Alternative C. The estimated total development cost are $38.0 million to $61.5 million. The estimated barracks renovation costs are $26.6 million to $48.7 million. This abbreviated final EIS summarizes the proposal and comments in response to the draft EIS. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The restoration and interpretation of site resources would provide the public with insights into the historic role of the area in the pre-Colonial, Colonial, and post-Colonial history of the region and the nation. The plan would complement the renovation of downtown Vancouver and enhance the retail and service economy of the city, particularly the tourist economy. Property tax valuations would increase, increasing the local tax base. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Finding tenants for the Vancouver Barracks buildings that would be compatible with its historic character could prove difficult. Achieving consensus among partners might prove difficult due to the complexity of issues involved, limited availability of funding, and the differing missions of the partners. Some traffic patterns in the vicinity of the reserve would be altered, and local traffic volumes could increase. Traffic congestion, noise, and demand for parking could adversely affect nearby tenants of Officers Row and local neighborhoods. LEGAL MANDATES: Omnibus Parks and Public Lands Management Act of 1996 (P.L. 104-333) and Department of Interior Appropriations (P.L. 101-523).

Preparation date: December 5, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - DELAWARE WATER GAP NATIONAL RECREATION AREA TRAILS PLAN GENERAL MANAGEMENT IMPLEMENTATION; NORTHAMPTON, SUSSEX, AND WARREN COUNTIES, NEW JERSEY, AND MONROE AND PIKE COUNTIES, PENNSYLVANIA. AN - 16336505; 7708 AB - PURPOSE: The designation of a park-wide system of trails for Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area (DWGNRA), located in northern New Jersey and northeastern Pennsylvania, is proposed. The DWGNRA, which encompasses 67,000 acres of woodlands, farms, mountains, creeks, and the Delaware River, is the largest natural area in the National Park System between Virginia and Maine and is among the ten most visited in the entire national system. Much of the visitation is from the nearby, rapidly expanding New York, northern New Jersey, and Philadelphia metropolitan areas. Visitation is growing at a steady rate. The DWGNRA lacks a designated trail system. Informally created paths now constitute the area's trail system. The 1987 general management plan outlined a potential system for trail development, but this system is no longer adequate to address the policy an operational issues now facing park managers. Recent concerns about potential impacts on habitat areas for federally listed species and user conflicts and dissatisfaction with the limited number of trails and facilities has prompted park management to recognize the need for a comprehensive trails plan that would address long-term needs of visitors while protecting resources. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), which would perpetuate the current trail system, are considered in this final EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative B) would designate a parkwide trail system that would define an overall scope of trail development within the park. Trail would be organized into four networks, namely, the Appalachian, Country Road, Gap View, and River Valley. Visitor experience and natural features would determine each of these networks with connections to each other and various trail opportunities outside the park. Comfort facilities, signage, and interpretation would be expanded as formalized trailheads were developed. Alternative C would provide a series of smaller, independent networks clustered around significant park resources. Both action alternatives would include the development of a coordinated trail signage system and improvements to access and visitor facilities. Estimated development and additional annual operating costs for the preferred alternative are $14.6 million and $232,700, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would increase the number of trails in the park, provide more mileage for various uses, and improve visitor facilities and interpretive experiences. Linkages between trails inside the park and activities outside the park boundaries would be encouraged. The alternative would double the amount of present park trail miles and provide greater opportunities for biking, cross-country skiing, and equestrian activities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activities would result in short- and long-term disturbances and vegetation loss and the loss of associated wildlife habitat. Human activities within the area could alter wildlife distribution. Archaeological sites could be disturbed during development activities. The process of resolving conflicts among different users through restrictions placed on particular uses could adversely affect some users. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 89-158.

AN - 36406024; 7703 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan for the Zion National Park, located in southern Utah, is proposed. The park, which encompasses some of the most scenic canyon country in the nation, is characterized by high plateaus, a maze of narrow, deep, sandstone canyons, and striking rock towers and mesas. Zion Canyon is the largest and most visited canyon in the park. Zion was also home of the virgin ancestral Puebloan people, whose presence in the area dates back 2,000 years. Other inhabitants have included the Southern Paiutes. Depression-era, Civilian Conservation Corps construction projects and other historically significant structures occur throughout the park. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would maintain the current management regime, are considered in this draft EIS. The action alternatives would create zones within the park to protect resources and provide opportunities for a range of visitor experiences. All three action alternatives limit park visitation in some backcountry areas, although many of these areas are inaccessible anyway due to their steep topography. All action alternatives would also make adjustments to the park boundary. The proposed action would emphasize proactive management to address impacts caused by increased visitor use. Overall park visitation would continue to increase, but limitations would be placed on certain areas. The plan would govern the management of the park for the next 15 to 20 years. The park would be zoned to ensure that resources were protected and opportunities were provided for a range of quality visitor experiences. Group sizes and visitor numbers would be managed in the backcountry. The Zion Canyon Lodge would continue to operate as it has in the past. No new major visitor facilities would be created; however, small visitor facilities could be developed in several areas, including Lava Point, the Kolob Canyons, the east entrance, and along the Zion-Mount Carmel Highway. Three existing research natural areas, encompassing 21 percent of the park, would be deauthorized, while new research natural areas, encompassing three percent of the park, would be authorized. Part of the North Fork of the Virgin River in the main Zion Canyon would be restored to more natural conditions. Most of the park (94 percent) would continue to be proposed for wilderness designation and would be managed according to the provisions of the Wilderness Act. The EIS also includes a wild and scenic river suitability/eligibility study for all of the drainages in the park and several drainages on adjacent lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management. The three actions alternatives recommend inclusion of five drainages and their tributaries in the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Any action alternative would better protect the park's natural resources, visitor uses and experiences, and the socioeconomic environment associated with park activities. The proposed action would best the park's natural resources while also maintaining a range of high-quality visitor experiences. The zoning and use restrictions would benefit the Mexican spotted owl population. The restoration of sections of the North Fork floodplain would have a major, beneficial effect on floodplain and riparian functions and values and enhance spinedace habitat. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The increases in visitation would result in increases in traffic levels, possibly degrading the air quality in certain areas and increasing noise levels. Similarly, the increased visitation would result to increased releases in water pollutants. The reduction in use levels for several trails would be experienced by some visitors as restrictive. The number of persons exposed to flood hazards in the North Fork area would increase significantly.

Preparation date: November 30, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FOR AMENDMENT TO THE SURVEY AND MANAGE, PROTECTION BUFFER, AND OTHER MITIGATING MEASURES STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES IN THE NATIONAL FORESTS ANS LAND MANAGEMENT DISTRICTS; CALIFORNIA, OREGON, AND WASHINGTON (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF JANUARY 1992). AN - 36403769; 7702 AB - PURPOSE: The amending of the species-specific management direction for some rare and/or localized species on national forests and Bureau of Land Management lands, located in the Pacific Northwest and northern California, is proposed. The identification of protections needed, the clarification of language, the elimination of inconsistent and redundant direction, and the establishment of a process responsive to new information are addressed. The selected alternative would amend those standards and guidelines in the Northwest Forest Plan that address "Survey and Manage, Protection Buffers, Protection for Bats, Management of Recreation Sites to Minimize Disturbance to Species, and Protect Sites from Grazing." The Northwest Forest Plan, adopted in April of 1994, provides for management of habitat for late-successional and old-growth forest related species. It is based primarily on a system of late-successional, riparian, and other reserves designed to provide for the habitat needs of more than 1,000 species associated with late-successional or old-growth forests in the western portions of Washington, Oregon, and northern California. No species listed as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act would be affected by amending these standards and guidelines. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft supplemental EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 1), Survey and Manage species are grouped into six categories based on level of relative rarity, ability to locate sites reasonably and consistently during surveys prior to the implementation of habitat-disturbing activities, and the level of information on the species. The alternative would combine most standards and guidelines for Protection Buffer and all those for Protect from Grazing and Manage, and edits and moves the remaining standards and guidelines for Protection Buffers and those for Additional Protection for Bats to "Standards and Guidelines Common to All Land Allocations." The alternative would remove 64 species from Survey and Manage and include an Adaptive Management section defining means of changing species among the six categories and the means to add or remove species from Survey and Manage when new information was available. All six categories require strategic surveys designed to address specific questions for Survey and Manage species regarding concerns related to persistence and the need to manage to provide for species persistence. The plan would allow for the sale and logging of 695 million board- feet of timber. Approximately 185,000 acres of land would be managed as known habitat sites. The estimated costs of surveys and management practices implementation is $28.0 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The agencies' amendment would improve the efficiency and consistency in applying mitigation measures while continuing to provide a reasonable level of assurance for persistence of late-successional and old-growth forest associated species. Logging and survey-related activities would create 6,310 and 500 jobs, respectively. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The adverse effects on two species would not be mitigated to the maximum extent practicable. Some individual habitat sites would be lost.

AN - 16351880; 7700 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan to manage various resources and programs along almost 200 miles of riverbank associated with the John Day River, located in northeastern Oregon, is proposed. The river system, which contains over 500 miles of river, is one of the longest free-flowing river systems in the continental United States. The John Day watershed is located in northeastern Oregon and encompasses all or portions of eleven counties, six of which would be directly affected by the proposed actions. The river has been divided analytically into 11 segments for management purposes. Approximately 147.5 miles of the river were designed as wild and scenic in 1988. The same legislation mandated a management plan be written in cooperation with the state of Oregon and affective Native American Tribes. Issues of interest and importance include grazing, water use, agricultural leases, boating use limits, and motorized boating. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), which would perpetuate the existing management regime, are considered in this draft EIS. The alternatives address visual resource management classification; vegetation management, including special status plants, weeds, prescribed fire, grazing, and agricultural lands; recreational resources, including motorized boating, dispersed camping, and developed facilities; public access; commercial services; minerals resources development; land ownership, classifications, and use authorizations; fish and wildlife resources; water quantity and quality; and scenery. The preferred alternative (Alternative B), which is a combination of the various alternatives considered, would place certain restrictions on each livestock grazing allotment along the segments designated as wild and scenic and certain segments not so designated where they are situation in such a was as to directly affect the designated segments. Boating use levels and motorized boating restrictions, which would vary by river segment, would also be implemented. Limitations on the number of commercial outfitter and guide permits would be imposed for the river. Several small tracts of irrigated agricultural lands would continue to be used for commercial crops, used to propagate riparian vegetation, returned to native vegetation, and/or used to provide wildlife habitat. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan implementation would increase water quantity and improve water quality, maintain instream water flows at levels needed to protect and enhance river values, including anadromous and resident fisheries, and support recreational uses. The plan would also diminish or eliminate sources of water pollution originating on public lands to meet state water quality requirements, protect and enhance riparian and upland vegetation, and manage recreational uses at levels that prevent damage and enhance river values. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: As many as eight additional miles of fencing would be visible from the river or areas adjacent to the river. Cattle would be visible in foreground views from the river for approximately six weeks in April and May, though this is a reduction in the number of weeks of cattle visibility over the No Action Alternative. The closure of certain river segments to motorized boating would reduce access to the associated recreational opportunity. Commercial services permit fees would increase, and grazing restrictions would adversely affect some operators economically.

Preparation date: November 23, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CADIZ GROUNDWATER STORAGE AND DRY-YEAR SUPPLY PROGRAM (SCH. NUMBER 99021039), SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36404958; 7694 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a 35-mile pipeline and associated facilities for conveying water between the Iron Mountain Pumping Plant on the Colorado River Aqueduct and the Cadiz/Fenner area, located in southeastern California, are proposed. The Cadiz Project is proposed by Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (Metropolitan), who is acting in partnership with a private company, Cadiz, Inc. Metropolitan is the primary supplier of supplemental water to approximately 16 million people in 240 cities and unincorporated areas in six southern California counties (San Bernardino, Riverside, San Diego, Orange, Los Angeles, and Ventura counties) Metropolitan imports water from the Colorado River via its Colorado River Aqueduct and from northern California's Sacramento/San Joaquin Bay-Delta via the State Water Project's California Aqueduct. Metropolitan also operates an extensive system of storage facilities, water conveyance facilities, and water treatment plants in southern California. The project would use the groundwater basin underlying part of the Cadiz and Fenner valleys for the storage of Metropolitan water supplies from the Colorado River for later recovery and would provide for transfer of some indigenous groundwater to Metropolitan for use in dry years. Five alternatives, including a No Project Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. In addition to the pipeline, the project would involve construction of a pumping plant at Metropolitan's existing Iron Mountain pumping plant facility, 390 acres of spreading basins for percolation of Colorado River into the groundwater basin in the Cadiz/Fenner area, a wellfield for extracting stored and indigenous groundwater, and associated power poles and lines along the conveyance pipeline and in the wellfield boundaries. The Cadiz Project would involve the storage of a minimum of 10 million acre-feet (af) depending on the availability of Colorado River water for storage, the storage or extraction at a rate of approximately 150,000 af per year, and the transfer of up to 2.0 million af of indigenous groundwater depending on the natural recharge of the groundwater basin over the 50-year term of the project. The environmentally preferred alternative (the Eastern Alternative) would extend from the project's spreading basins in the Fenner Gap area, approximately three miles north of unimproved Cadiz-Rice Road, proceed due south for three miles, parallel Cadiz-Rice Road and the Arizona California Railroad Company rail lines in a southeasterly direction toward abandoned Chubbuck station, turn south for approximately three miles around the west side of Danby Dry Lake, turn southeast and run between the south side of Danby Dry Lake and along the Iron Mountains for approximately 10 miles, continue around the east side of the Iron Mountains to connect to an unimproved road, and parallel the road to enter the Iron Mountain Pumping Plant site, discharge. The estimated capital cost of the project is $149.7 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would help meet the need for supplemental dry-year water supply in the six-county service area, preventing demand from exceeding dependable supply beyond the year 2020. The project would include a component to remove unexploded ordnance that have resulted from military exercises in the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activities would result in violation of air quality standards for several pollutants, including particulates and volatile organic compounds. The pipeline would pass through sensitive desert habitat, including Mojave wash scrub and desert tortoise habitat. The facilities would constrain the passage of animals between the Iron Mountains and the Old Woman Mountains, though siphons would be provided at major washes along the canal, allowing for wildlife movement and thereby reducing the impact to the level of insignificance. Some unexploded ordnance could be left in the area following the project. The conveyance facilities would pass through areas having a high potential for paleontological resources consisting of lakebeds and paleosols. The project's wellfields and spreading basins would lie in areas with high potential for paleontological resources, including carbonate beds in the Cadiz Playa. Portions of the conveyance facility pass through areas with recent alluvium, probably underlain by paleosols.

AN - 16352269; 7696 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of an off-highway vehicle (OHV) use management plan on public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management and the Forest Service in Montana, North Dakota, and portions of South Dakota (excluding the Black Hills National Forest, Buffalo Gap Grasslands, and the Fort Pierre Grasslands) is proposed. Currently, approximately 16 million acres of public land are open to motorized cross-country travel either yearlong on seasonally. Disturbances by OHVs have the potential to result in the spread of noxious weeds, cause erosion, damage cultural sites, create user conflicts, disrupt wildlife, and damage wildlife habitat. The random use of OHVs in open areas has created trail networks throughout the analysis area. Some of this use has occurred in riparian areas and on highly erodible slopes. The plan would cover the use of motorcycles, four-wheel-drive vehicles, sport utility vehicles, all- terrain vehicles, and the like. It would constitute an interim measure until site-specific planning can be developed and adopted. Primary issues identified which reflect concerns or conflicts include the need for plan amendment, exceptions, enforceability, flexibility, and identified problems. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 2) would restrict motorized cross- country travel, allowing for a few exceptions for relatively infrequent activities. Agency personnel would be allowed to use OHVs for activities such as game retrieval, camping, and disabled access. OHV access would be allowed for any military, fire, emergency, or law enforcement vehicle while such a vehicle was being used for emergency response purposes. Motorized cross-country travel would be allowed for lessees and permittees to administer federal leases and permits. OHV access would be permitted for camping within 300 feet of existing roads and trails, for retrieval of big game, for persons with disabilities, and for firewood and Christmas tree cutting. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would provide timely interim direction for OHV use and would prevent further various resource damage, user conflicts, and related problems, including new user-created roads, associated with motorized cross-country travel until subsequent site-specific travel planning could be completed. Inventoried roadless, recommended wildernesses, and wilderness study areas would be protected from deterioration. Adverse impacts on wildlife would be reduced. The risk for the expansion and introduction of existing and new weeds would be lower. Cultural resources on and underlying public lands would receive additional protection. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Access to the area would be reduced. This situation would be inconsistent with rural communities desire for leaving activities on public lands at their current levels. Minor reductions in employment and wages could occur.

Preparation date: November 19, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FORT BOWIE NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLAN, COCHISE COUNTY, ARIZONA. AN - 16351812; 7695 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan for the Fort Bowie National Historic Site within the Chiricahua National Monument and Chochise County, located in the southeastern Arizona, is proposed. The 1,000-acre park includes most of Apache Pass, which separates the Dos Cabezas Mountains on the north from the Chiricahua Mountains to the south. The Dos Cabezas Mountains and the Chiricahua Mountains were the home and stronghold of the Chiricahua Apaches, from where they fought to stop the Americans's westward advance, which reached their land in the 1840s and 1850s. The U.S. Army came to defeat the Chiricahuas, and a focus on their struggle over more than 20 years was Apache Spring, a dependable water source, and Apache Pass, a strategic area between the two ranges. The remains of Fort Bowie, which housed soldiers during that period, are close to the ruts of the Butterfield Overland Trail and the ruins of a stagecoach station. Nearby are sites of a battle that took place between the Apaches and the soldiers and of an attack on a wagon train. The Fort Bowie National Historic Site, encompassing all these sites, was created in 1964. The management plan would continue the concept established for the historic site, which is to perpetuate a very low level of development intended to allow the visitor a "discovery" experience in a place of "historic abandonment." Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the current level of development and interpretation would be perpetuated for the most part. Parking facilities and trail access associated with the area's overlook would be improved. The park entrance and trailhead would be redesigned. Grazing would be phased out and the park boundary would be fenced. Other aspects of the plan would address park landscape, ruins preservation, vegetation management, accessibility, the water supply, system, commercial services, and the park museum and collections. The plan would guide development and use of the park for 12 to 15 years. The estimated development costs for the proposed action are $541,270. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The management plan would help preserve and interpret the historically significant actions of the soldiers, the Chiricahua Apaches, the Butterfield Overland Trail and Stage Station, and other associated ruins. Facility improvements would ease access to the site by mobility-impaired persons. The development activities would infuse $983,000 in total sales income into the community, and 39 permanent jobs would be created. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some mesquite trees would be removed along the access trail. A new road would introduce a nonhistoric element into the historic landscape. The phasing out of cattle grazing would adversely affect local operators' economics. LEGAL MANDATES: Establishment of Fort Bowie National Historic Site (78 Stat. 681).

Preparation date: November 19, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FLATHEAD INDIAN RESERVATION FOREST MANAGEMENT PLAN; FLATHEAD, LAKE, AND MISSOULA COUNTIES, MONTANA. AN - 16350228; 7693 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a resource management plan for forest resources on tribal lands within the Flathead Indian Reservation, located in northwestern Montana, is proposed. The reservation encompasses 1.3 million acres, of which 456,520 acres are forested. The Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes proposed to revise and implement the 1996 Flathead Indian Reservation Draft Forest Management Plan. The plan would take an interdisciplinary, ecosystem approach to forest management and seek to restore and maintain the long-term ecological integrity of the Reservation's forests in a manner consistent with Tribal values. Issues of concern include grazing, threatened and endangered species, wildlife, watersheds, traditional uses, recreational uses, clearcutting and visuals, socioeconomics, forest management, and communication and education. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 4), are considered in this final EIS. The preferred alternative (the Modified Restoration Alternative, Alternative 2) would have as its primary goal balancing the restoration of pre-European forest conditions with the needs of sensitive species and human uses of the forest. Silvicultural treatments would be designed to reverse the effects of fire exclusion and undesirable forest practices of the past. Prescribed fire would be a major tool. The logging would mimic natural disturbances as much as possible; however, the restoration would be balanced against present-day uses of the forest, the needs of sensitive wildlife species, and watershed concerns. Alternative 2 would have the second highest level of prescribed burning and the second greatest number of restoration acres. A total of 49,466 acres of grassland, woodland, and park-like stands would undergo restoration and maintenance treatments over the long term. The prioritized silvicultural treatments would be uneven-aged treatments, underburns, temporary even-aged treatments, and no treatment. Entry periods would be 10 to 20 years. An estimated 3,000 to 4,000 acres would undergo prescribed burning each year. Grazing management would focus on improving and maintaining biodiversity of existing grassland types. Noxious weeds would be aggressively managed on 80 percent of infested areas. Big game summer and winter range would be restored by reducing road densities and livestock impacts. Reducing the level of fragmentation in all fire regimes would receive high priority. Eighty percent of road sections that severely degrade aquatics would be abandoned. Seven roadless areas, covering 33,210 acres, would remain roadless, and timber logging practices would emphasis reduction of visual impacts. Four areas, covering 26,969 acres, would be protected as wilderness. Trail and campsite maintenance would be emphasized. Limited public access areas would be established throughout the reservation to provide a variety of natural areas and recreational settings for cultural and recreational pursuits by tribe members. Alternative 1 (the Full Restoration Alternative) has been identified as the environmentally preferred alternative. It would use an ecosystem-management approach to aggressively restore, to the extent possible, pre-European forest conditions. Silvicultural treatment would be designed to reverse the effects of fire exclusion and undesirable forest practices of the past and would mimic natural disturbances in size and frequency. Managers would rely heavily on prescribed fire and would seek to restore grasslands, woodlands, and riparian zones; reduce livestock impacts; reduce road densities; visually rehabilitate areas heavily impacted by geometrically-shaped clearcuts; protect some roadless areas from future roading; designate some new wildernesses; and establish limited public access areas. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would reduce livestock impacts, reduce road densities to improve big game and aquatic habitat effectiveness, protect some roadless areas from future road construction, designate some new wilderness, and restore some grasslands, woodlands, and watershed and riparian zones. The management plan would also visually rehabilitate areas heavily impacted by geometrically-shaped clearcuts and establish limited public access areas. Bark beetle impacts would be reduced as would impacts associated with root rot, mistletoe, and budworm. The restoration activities would reduce the potential for wildfire. Approximately 80 percent of water pollution sources would be removed. Cutthroat trout would be restored to two drainages and bull trout to one. Hiding cover and large snag habitat would approximate pre-contact levels in the long term. Habitat for peregrine falcon, bald eagle, Rocky Mountain wolf, and grizzly bear, all threatened or endangered species, would meet federal requirements. Campsites and trails would be enhanced, winter recreational opportunities would be diversified, and the general recreational character of the affected area would improve. Road closures and limitation of public access would reduce potential impacts to cultural resource sites. The preferred management plan would support 4,400 direct and indirect jobs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The prescribed burning activity would result in localized decreases in air quality and visibility. Abandoned roads would result in a loss of forage and its access. Some habitat loss would be expected for white-tailed deer. LEGAL MANDATES: National Indian Forest Resources Management Act.

Preparation date: November 19, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SOLEDAD CANYON SAND AND GRAVEL MINING PROJECT, LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF MAY 1999). AN - 16336432; 7691 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a 20-year mining and reclamation plan at an unincorporated site in Soledad Canyon, located north of the city of Los Angeles in southwestern California, is proposed. The site is located north of Soledad Canyon Road and the Santa Clara River, south of Antelope Valley Freeway, and west of Agua Canyon. The applicant, Transit Mixed Concrete Company, would mine 83 million tons of material and produce and sell approximately 56 million tons of sand and gravel, also known as Portland cement concrete sand and gravel. The site would include a concrete batch plant to produce ready-mixed concrete for delivery to local markets. The mining, aggregate production, and batch plant site is on split-estate lands, where the minerals are federally owned and administered by the Bureau of Land Management and where the surface is privately owned. The site is located within the Saugus-Newhall Production-Consumption Region of Los Angeles County, as described in the State Surface Mining and Reclamation Act, and is designated by the state as a regionally significant construction aggregate resource area. The site carries a Los Angeles County designation for heavy manufacturing use under which mineral extraction is allowed. Eight alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, were considered in the draft EIS. Amongst the action alternatives, the environmentally preferable alternatives included the applicant's proposal and the Reduced Quantity Mining Concept and Reduced North Fines Storage Area Alternatives. For the purposes of the draft EIS analysis, the project site was divided into two sections (Area A and Area B) based on land use and ownership. The surface mining operations would be conducted within the 460-acre Area A, for which the federal government holds the mineral ownership. As split estate, the mineral estate is dominant and the mining operator is entitled to occupy as much of the surface as it needs for the purposes reasonably incident to mining or related mining activities. The project processing facilities, including water resources, would be located primarily within the 40 acres constituting Area B. This supplement to the draft EIS provides additional information about air quality and the impacts of the project. It identifies the Reduced North Fines Storage Area Alternative as the preferred alternative. Under this alternative, 32 million tons of Portland cement concrete sand and gravel would be produced instead of the 56.1 million tons under the proposed action. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The exploitation of the sand and gravel resource would provide a source of construction minerals primarily for use in the Santa Clarita Valley and greater Los Angeles area. Approximately $28.0 million in royalties would redound to the federal government. The project would allow continued employment of 400 to 500 workers once other local sand and gravel reserves were depleted. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The mining activities would result in the removal of 187 acres of natural vegetation and the associated wildlife habitat under the applicant's proposed action erosion, contributing sediment to the Santa Clara River and adversely affecting 23 acres of riparian habitat downstream of the project site. Landform transformations due to mining activities would significantly affect the visual quality of the area. Certain receptors would experience noise levels in excess of federal standards, and blasting would result in vibration and airblast overpressure impacts for some local residents. Exhaust emissions generated by mining equipment would reduce air quality in an area already adversely affected by pollution levels exceeding federal standards. The Reduced Quantity Mining Concept Alternative would lessen the volume of product resulting from the project to 57 percent of the tonnage allowable by the applicant's proposed action. Traffic generated by project activities would exacerbate congestion on already heavily used roads in the vicinity of the project site.

Preparation date: November 18, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - PINEDALE ANTICLINE OIL AND GAS EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT PROJECT, SUBLETTE COUNTY, WYOMING. AN - 16341876; 7689 AB - PURPOSE: The exploration and development of natural gas wells and associated access roads, pipelines, and production facilities on a leased 197,345-acre tract within the Pinedale Anticline Project Area (PAPA), located in western Wyoming, are proposed. The PAPA operators include Alpine Gas Company, Anschluts Exploration Corporation, B-P Amoco Production Company, HS Resources, Inc., McMurry Oil Company, Questar Exploration & Production, Ultra Resources, Inc., Yates Petroleum Corporation, Western Gas Resources, Inc., Jonah Gas Gathering Company, and other companies (collectively referred to as the PAPA Operators). The PAPA is located within Townships 29 through 33 North, Ranges 107 through 110 West, 6th Principal Meridian. The area is accessed by US Highway 191 and Wyoming Highway 351. Access to the interior of the PAPA is provided by an existing county and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) road network developed to service homes and ranches located along the Green and New Fork rivers, livestock operators, recreational users, and prior and on-going drilling and production activities. Collectively, the Pinedale Anticline Operators would continue to explore for natural gas and, where discoveries occurred, develop gas resources by drilling up to 900 new wells to achieve 700 producing locations over the next 10 to 15 years. Drilling estimates were based reasonable expectations by the operators, BLM, and the state that the tight-gas formation in the area could be developed at spacing levels of one every 40 acres of 16 wells per square mile. Three exploration/development scenarios, including a No Action Exploration/Development Scenario, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the Project Wide Exploration/Development Scenario, development would generally occur throughout the entire project area. Under the Anticline Crest Exploration/Development Scenario, most of the development would occur approximately within one mile of either side of the anticline crest. Three hot spots would be discovered and developed away from the anticline crest. Along with the exploration/development scenarios defining over what portion of the PAPA development could occur, two levels of development defining the number of well pads which could be developed in the next ten to 15 years and two mitigation alternatives defining option for reducing impacts to the environment from future development activities are addressed. The plans and drilling schedules would be contingent on an adequate price for the gas at the wellhead and anticipated increases in gas consumption nationally, a demand estimated to increase by 40 percent by 2015. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In addition to helping meet national demands for natural gas, the project would provide employment for local and regional workers and generally enhance the county economy, which is highly dependent on revenues from oil and gas. Annual property tax paid on production from only 50 wells in the PAPA would generate approximately $1.0 million for Sublette County and over $2.0 million for the Wyoming School Foundation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The possibly extensive development in the vicinity of residential areas near Pinedale and along the New Fork River could have significant impacts, including exposure to benzene. The developments could also affect recreational land uses in the area. Visually-sensitive areas, including mesa land, could be adversely affected by drilling and related structures. The overall integrity and setting of the Lander Trail would be significantly affected if developments in the vicinity of the trail were extensive. The extensive development would create challenges for protecting water quality and floodplain land, including wetland, associated with the New Fork and Green rivers. Project developments would displace winter range for big game and sage grouse nesting habitat and endangered fish species inhabiting the Colorado River could be adversely affected by water depletions.

Preparation date: November 17, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - TALLGRASS PRAIRIE NATIONAL PRESERVE, CHASE COUNTY, KANSAS. AN - 36412463; 7688 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan for the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve, located in east-central Kansas, is proposed. The 10,894-acre preserve, consisting of rolling grasslands, is located in northern Chase County in the heart of the Flint Hills region. Two major creeks cross the preserve, Fox Creek and its tributary, Palmer Creek. Numerous springs, seeps, and stock ponds dot the landscape. In addition to the prominent buildings and structures related to the ranching history of the property, a number of less prominent archaeological features have been identified. The history of the area dates back to Spanish and French explorers of the mid-16th and early 17th centuries. Of the 400,000 square miles of tallgrass prairie ecosystem that once covered North America, less than four percent remains. The landscape of the preserve contains a unique collection of natural and cultural features that tell the story of human interaction with the prairie environment from pre-contact times to the present. The Spring Hill Ranch is an outstanding representation of the transition from open range to the enclosed holdings of the large cattle companies of the 1880s. Major issues identified during scoping include those associated with vegetation, wildlife, threatened and endangered species, air and water quality, visitor use, socioeconomics, and historic, ethnographic, and archaeological resources. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (the proposed action) would focus on the integrated management of the natural and cultural resources of the preserve, based on the concepts that the preserve was established to preserve, protect, and interpret a remnant of the tallgrass prairie ecosystem and that the remnant prairie exists today due to a complex history of interaction between the human population and the land. Small plots would be used to demonstrate alternative prairie management practices. Springs, seeps, and their associated streams would be afforded additional protection. Species lacking natural predators would be monitored to insure overpopulation does not occur. The plan would include development of a visitor information center near the junction of State Route 177 and US 50. The Flint Hills Ranch would serve as the primary focal point for interpreting the story of the Flint Hills region. Day use opportunities would be offered east of the Fox Creek bottomland, and a prairie landscape area would be provided to allow interpretation of the role of bison and cattle on the prairie. The estimated costs of general development, historic structure rehabilitation, and the implementation of interpretation and education features of the preferred action are $14.4 million, $5.5 million, and $245,000, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would protect and enhance the preserve's resources more adequately that the current plan. The plan would allow a means of interpreting for the public the cultural resources and the social and cultural values represented within the preserve. Prairie vegetation would tend toward greater diversity, providing more habitat for invertebrates, small mammals, and birds. Increased visitation and development employment and expenditures would contribute to the local economy. A variety of recreational experiences would be provided. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The rehabilitation of some structures and historic circulation patterns could adversely affect the features that define the character of the resources. The introduction of bison on over 1,000 acres within the preserve would limit the amount of forage available for cattle grazing. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 104-333.

Preparation date: November 15, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - REDWOOD NATIONAL AND STATE PARKS, DEL NORTE AND HUMBOLDT COUNTIES, CALIFORNIA. AN - 16351773; 7678 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resources management plan for Redwood National and State parks, located in northwestern California, is proposed. The 105,516-acre cooperative federal-state park area preserves some of the last remaining stands of the world's tallest trees along 35 miles of California coastline. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 2), are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed alternative (Alternative 1), the management plan would be designed to achieve a balance between resource protection and visitor use, preserving and protecting the parks' natural and cultural resources while emphasizing restoration activities that are more intensive than those currently in effect in areas where sensitive resources are at risk. In-depth interpretation would be provided both in facilities and onsite. Orientation would help visitors access both facility- and resource-based interpretation and visitor opportunities. Major developments would be concentrated along US Highway (US) 101 and US 199. New visitor services and facilities in the parks would be provided as long as sensitive resources were not affected. Watershed restoration within the national park would be increased over current levels. Second-growth forests would be managed to accelerate the return of characteristics found in old-growth forests. Historic structures would be stabilized and preserved as appropriate. A new primary visitor center would be constructed, possibly in the vicinity of B-mill deck, other visitor centers would be retained and/or modified. The number of campsites would be increased, but overnight camping at Freshwater Spit would be eliminated. Off-road vehicle use would be permitted only for American Indian subsistence activities. Some road improvements would be undertaken. State wilderness areas would be designated for portions of Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park and Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park. Under Alternative 2, existing programs and management policies would be continued, with some trail development and new campground construction. Under Alternative 3, natural and cultural resource restoration, protection, and preservation with be emphasized to a greater degree than under any other alternative. Under alternative 4, emphasis would be placed on providing a broad spectrum of appropriate visitor experiences relating to the parks' resources. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would ensure the preservation of redwood forest along the Pacific Coast. Watershed restoration would decrease soil erosion and improve downstream terrestrial, riparian and aquatic habitat. The Redwood Creek estuary would be restored, improving floodplain and wetland conditions and enhancing fish habitat. Threatened and endangered species would benefit from enhanced protection. Visual quality within the parks would improve, and some minor access and circulation benefits would be realized. Protection, preservation, management, and interpretation of the parks' cultural resources would be enhanced. Increased visitation would provide a substantial boost to local economies. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activities would result in short-term disturbances to land and vegetation. Modest land-use impacts could result from the need to acquire some parcels within the 100-year floodplain and subsequent displacement of several farms and resultant loss of agricultural production to restore the Redwood Creek estuary; land would be acquired only from willing sellers.

Preparation date: November 9, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - HORSE CREEK COAL LEASE APPLICATION (FEDERAL COAL LEASE APPLICATION WYW141435), CAMPBELL AND CONVERSE COUNTIES, WYOMING. AN - 16345963; 7672 AB - PURPOSE: The leasing of a federal estate coal tract, located in eastern Wyoming, is proposed. The project area is located in the Powder River Basin, a part of the Northern Great Plains. The Horse Creek Lease By Application (LBA) Tract, as applied for by Antelope Coal Company (ACC), includes approximately 2,840 acres containing approximately 356.5 million tons of federal coal. The tract is located in the south-central portion of the basin. The area encompasses two minable coal seams, referred to as the Anderson and Canyon. The Anderson seam averages 40 feet in thickness and the Canyon seam averages 35 feet in thickness. The average overburden thickness is 150 feet. The interval between the two seams is variable, but averages approximately 45 feet. ACC operates the adjacent ACC Mine and proposed to mine the Horse Creek LBA Tract as a maintenance tract for the existing mine. Key issues identified during scoping include those related to groundwater, air quality, and wildlife habitat as well as cumulative impacts related to ongoing surface coal mining and other proposed development in the Powder River Basin. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1,) are considered in this draft EIS. The two action alternatives would include the leasing of the tract for development by ACC (the proposed action) and the holding of a competitive coal lease sale culminating in the leasing of the tract to the successful bidder (Alternative 2). Under Alternative 2, the Bureau of Land Management would implement an amended tract configuration to avoid a possible future bypass situation and/or to enhance the value of the federal coal still unleased in the area. Alternative 2 would cover 3,215 acres and include approximately 298 million tons of menial federal coal. Either action alternative would include a reclamation component. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The leasing of coal to ACC or another lessee would release the coal for mining. Either action alternative would increase direct coal mining employment in the area to 250 jobs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The existing topography of the LBA tract would be substantially changed during the mining and the topography of the land would be changed somewhat thereafter. Coal bed methane associated with the coal at the time it was mined would be irretrievably lost. Soils in the overburden would be altered physically, chemically, and biologically. Dust generated during mining would degrade air quality and visual quality in the area, and the mining activities would be visible to area visitors and residents. The streamflow in Horse Creek would be diverted or captured. The project would cause changes in runoff characteristics and sediment discharges during the mining. Wetlands and other wildlife habitat would be destroyed, but these would be replaced.

AN - 36413036; 7668 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of the Central Valley Project Improvement Act of 1992 (CVPIA), located in central California, is proposed. The CVPIA was passed in order to protect and enhance fish and wildlife resources in the Central Valley and Trinity River basins (including the Trinity, Sacramento, American, Stanislaus, and San Joaquin rivers), to address impacts of water resource projects on fish and wildlife, to improve the operational flexibility of these projects and water conservation, and to protect the San Francisco Bay and Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Estuary. Prior to the development of water resources in California, anadromous fish were attracted upstream during storm events from fall through the spring. The storm flows also provided flushing flows to move fish downstream from the upper reaches of the streams where spawning occurred. The rain and snow also repelled saltwater intrusion in the delta from the San Francisco Bay. The Central Valley Project (CVP) modified the flow patterns by shifting peak river flows to the summer months and altering the temperatures of some stream reaches. Fish and wildlife were also adversely affected by the construction of levees along many of the rivers and the delta. The levees eliminated many wetland and shallow water zones where spawning and rearing occurred. Twenty alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, were considered in the programmatic draft EIS of November 1997. All of the action alternatives would have certain core programs in common: the renewing of all Central Valley Project service, water rights, and exchange contracts; the implementation of water measurement; the upgrading of Tracy and Contra Costa pumping plants fish protection facilities; the construction of a Shasta temperature control device; the completion of improvements to the Coleman National Fish Hatchery; the modification of irrigation diversion facilities for fish protection; the implementation of seasonal field flooding; and the purchase of 30,000 acres of retired land. The alternatives would differ in their methods of habitat restoration, water pricing, Red Bluff Diversion Dam modification, delta fish barrier construction, water transfer, and retired land revegetation. A June 1999 supplement to the draft programmatic EIS (DPEIS) provided additional information in response to a general group of comments received on the DPEIS. These comments addressed an inconsistency discovered in the project simulation model (PROSIM) hydrology shortly before the DPEIS was completed. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS; 15 supplemental analyses are also provided. The preferred alternative would include the acquisition of up to 110,000 acre-feet (af) of water from willing sellers on the Stanislaus, Tuolumne, and Merced rivers and up to 30,000 af on the Sacramento River tributaries. The acquired water would be used to increase instream flows and, partially, to increase delta outflow. The acquired water would be used to provide refuge water supplies. The provisions for the transfer of water between willing buyers and sellers, with no additional transfer fees, would also be established. Studies concerning delta barriers, improvements at Red Bluff Diversion Dam, and other CVPIA provisions are currently underway. Due to the status of these studies, the preferred alternative recognizes the benefits of these programs, but does not include specific recommendations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would define operational criteria, management, and structural priorities for the Central Valley Project throughout the next water contracting cycle. The proposal would comply with the mandate contained in the CVPIA for the protection of fish and wildlife habitat in the Central Valley and the achievement of a reasonable balance among competing demands for the region's water supply. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Additional commitments of water to delta outflow for fishery use would be lost for irrigation and other freshwater uses south of the delta. Fish mortality in the American, Merced, and Sacramento rivers would increase because of an increase in water temperature. Flatwater recreation at Lake Red Bluff would be eliminated.

AN - 36406827; 7666 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a resource management program for the lower Mokelumne River, located in central California, is proposed. The Lower Mokelumne River Restoration Program encompasses an area located along the Mokelumne River between Comanche Dam and the confluence of the Mokelumne and Cosumnes rivers. Alterations to naturally occurring conditions have adversely affected salmon and steelhead reproduction, survival, growth, and migration through the lower section of the river. The project would include elements to improve fish passage at Woodbridge Dam, upgrade the fish screen at the Woodbridge Irrigation District (WID) diversion, place screens on unscreened or underscreened riparian diversions on a voluntary basis, and restore riparian vegetation. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Components of the various alternatives include the construction of a fish ladder at Woodbridge Dam, the placement of a fish screen at Woodbridge Canal, the placement of a bypass pipe at the dam, dam construction, the installation of a pump station with a fish screen, the construction of a river control structure, the installation of a low-level outlet gate, the creation of a predator-isolation berm, the relocation of the WID diversion, the provision of a splash pool and/or stratification sill below the dam, the maintenance of a year-round Lodi Lake pool behind the dam, and the provision of monitoring, laboratory, and visitor facilities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would substantially increase fall-run Chinook salmon and steelhead populations, enhance critical and limiting aquatic habitats, and restore riparian ecosystem integrity and diversity. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Depending on the alternative selected, the project could result in the overdraft of area groundwater and salinity intrusion in the groundwater aquifer resulting from agricultural demand for WID water, the reduction of recreational opportunities related to Lodi Lake, visual resource degradation due to dam operation, the conversion of prime agricultural land to habitat as a result of habitat restoration, constraints on boat access to the Lower Mokelumne River from Lodi Park Lake, and changes to area visual resources associated with the opening of the dam.

AN - 16351441; 7665 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan for the 11,985-acre Chiricahua National Monument, located in southeastern Arizona, is proposed. The plan would apply for 12 to 15 years. The area contains 10,290 acres of designated wilderness. The monument preserves natural rock formations, known as The Pinnacles, in perpetuity and makes this valuable part of America's heritage available to thousands of visitors annually. The monument contains the only rhyolitic rock formation of its kind in the world, elements of rare Madrean flora and fauna, part of the Sierra Madre sky island complex, examples of the transition from nineteenth-century pioneer settlements to mid-twentieth-century settlements, a Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) camp and CCC-built stone structures and trails listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and the only known monument constructed by Buffalo Soldiers. Issues identified during scoping include those related to access, campground facilities, trails, cultural resources, historic district landscapes, wildland fires, wilderness and backcountry areas, and the operational efficiency of facilities. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the National Park Service planning proposal, the general management plan would retain most existing visitor experiences and include construction of a headquarters and visitor orientation facility and administrative area just outside park boundaries. The plan would address the maintenance of Park Road, access to the Bonita Picnic Area, landscape restoration at Faraway Ranch, parking and visitor circulation, the termination of the boneyard and firearms training range, the selective closures of the Bonita Creek campground to protect visitors from flash flooding, the cooperation with outside interests to provide camping outside the monument boundaries, the management of trails, the acquisition of the King of Lead Mine, the addition of day-use amenities at Sugarloaf, monument boundary changes, the management of fire, the management of commercial services, and water supply systems. The estimated development and annual operational costs for the proposed plan are $5.9 million and $233,500, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would preserve and protect natural and cultural resources and values within the monument, provide recreational opportunities compatible with the protection and appreciation of park resources for diverse groups, and provide educational opportunities to foster understanding and appreciation of the natural and human history of the area. The plan would contribute $6.0 to $10.0 million in combined sales, $1.0 million in tax revenue, and 445 jobs to the affected local economies. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Any increase in visitation would tend to increase the amount of damage to archaeological sites and the loss of artifacts regardless of the protective measures taken.

Preparation date: October 29, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - LOWER SHEENJEK RIVER, ALASKA. AN - 36407232; 7633 AB - PURPOSE: The inclusion in the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System (NWSRS) of the Lower Sheenjek River, located in northeastern Alaska, is proposed. The river is a 277-mile free-flowing, unpolluted tributary of the Porcupine River. The study area encompasses the lower 99 miles of the river flowing through the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge. The river outside the study area, within the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, is already included in the NWSRS. The entire study area is eligible and suitable for inclusion in the system, meeting the criteria for classification as wild. The area is characterized by outstandingly remarkable cultural, wildlife, scenic, and recreational values and has historically provided access to important resources used by local people for subsistence. The area provides habitat for waterfowl, moose, black bear, grizzly bear, and beaver, and the scenery is appealing as the river flows through thickly forested, boggy flats. Finally, the river offers excellent boating waters and camping opportunities which are easily accessible. With the exception of five relatively small private parcels, the entire study area is federally owned. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative B), are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action (the preferred alternative, Alternative A), the entire Lower Sheenjek River would be recommended for inclusion as a wild river in the NWSRS. The management of all federal lands would remain with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The management objectives would focus on keeping the area free of water resource development projects and major extractive resource development (timber logging and oil and gas development) and minimize the impact of recreational use. The estimated cost of corridor administration is $5,000 per year. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The designation of the Lower Sheenjek as a wild river would provide additional protection and management attention relative to other rivers and resources in the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge and encourage consistent management of the lower and upper segments of the river. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Oil and gas development and other potential resource development would be foregone, as would road, utility, and pipeline construction.

AN - 16347285; 7626 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of long-term water supply contracts associated with use of the waters of the Republican River basin, located in Colorado, Kansas, and Nebraska, is proposed. The contracts were concluded between the Bureau of Land Management and five irrigation districts, namely, Frenchman-Cambridge, Frenchman Valley, and Bostwick irrigation districts in Nebraska and Bostwick Number 2 and Almena irrigation districts in Kansas. The management of water resources in the basin is of particular importance due to increased surface and groundwater use that has led to a decline in the available water supply. This trend has been worsened by drought and certain soil and water conservation practices, and the situation has been the impetus for litigation under the Republican River Compact of 1943. The supply contracts with the various districts have or are about to expire. The project area includes seven reservoirs that provide off-season irrigation storage for 136,528 acres of farmland. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (the Multi-Use Alternative) would extend the contracts for four years. The alternative would also provide for continued irrigation with specified water conservation practices, increased minimum pool elevations needed for boat ramps at Harry Strunk Lake of 2,349 feet above mean sea level (MSL) (13,600 acre-feet (af)) and at Hugh Banker Lake of 2,547 feet above MSL (17,700 af), no change from the No Action Alternative in minimum pool elevations at Enders Reservoir and Harland County Lake, no minimum pool elevations specifically for maintenance and enhancement of reservoirs riparian vegetation, and increased minimum pool elevations recommended by Nebraska for fisheries at Swanson Lake and by Kansas for fisheries at Keith Sebelius Lake of 2,735 feet above mean sea level (MSL) (45,200 af) and 2,284 feet above MSL (7,700 af), respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would balance the water needs of resource users in the basin while providing for continued beneficial uses of federally developed water supplies. This alternative would improve on-farm irrigation and water delivery efficiencies and provide for state-recommended minimum pool elevations at selected reservoirs for the benefit of fishery and recreation resources. Incidental benefits to riparian habitat and recreational opportunities should occur at those reservoirs with increased minimum pool elevations. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some of the affected irrigation districts would experience irrigation shortages during some years. The bioaccumulation of selenium would pose a potential hazard for aquatic species. The concentrations of metal contaminants, cyclodiene, and toxaphene would exceed indicator levels in some locations and species. Income in the Bostwick Irrigation District of Nebraska would decline somewhat. Reservoir fluctuations and filling patterns, with periodic inundation of vegetation, could cause variations in vegetation type and area extent around shorelines. The plan could contribute to cumulative losses of habitat for avian, and terrestrial wildlife, including migratory waterfowl. LEGAL MANDATES: Reclamation Act of 1956.

Preparation date: October 14, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - TRINITY RIVER MAIN STEM FISHERY RESTORATION, HUMBOLDT AND TRINITY COUNTIES, CALIFORNIA. AN - 16351398; 7625 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a fishery restoration plan for the Trinity River, located in northwestern California, is proposed. The river has historically been a major producer of fish and wildlife resources. Of special importance to humans have been the abundant Chinook and coho salmon and steelhead trout. Historically, the Hoopa, the Yurok, and other tribes depended on the rich fishery. Historic records of fish abundance are problematic; however, one estimate suggests that 168,000 Chinook salmon migrated into the Klamath River and Trinity River watershed as recently as the middle of this century. In 1955, Congress authorized the construction of Lewiston and Trinity dams on the Trinity River as well as associated structures in order to export water to the Central Valley of California. From 1965 to 1997, approximately 74 percent of the river's water above Lewiston was exported, dramatically reducing instream flows and, thereby, resulting in substantial detriment to the river and the associated anadromous fish production. Currently, Trinity River coho are federally listed as a threatened species. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (the Flow Evaluation Alternative) would provide for scheduled annual Trinity River releases averaging 595,000 acre-feet (af), ranging from 369,000 af in critically years to 815,000 af in extremely wet years. Peak releases of 11,000 cubic feet per second would occur for five days in May in extremely wet years. Some 47 mechanical channel rehabilitation project would be implemented to initiate the necessary geomorphic changes. Approximately 10,300 cubic yards of spawning gravel would be added to the river annually. The alternative would also incorporate an adaptive management program, a process using scientific methods to develop and test various management choices. The alternative would be coupled with additional watershed protection efforts to reduce sediment inputs to the mainstem. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would substantially increase the natural production of anadromous fish on the Trinity River mainstem, restore the in- river and ocean fishing opportunities for anadromous fish for tribal and recreational purposes, help restore the riparian habitat to pre-dam conditions, improve tribal access to tribal trust resources, allow for continued operation of the Trinity River Dam, including water exports, limit flooding of lands within the Trinity River floodplain, and balance environmental and societal impacts across the Trinity River basin, Lower Klamath River basin and coastal area, and the Central Valley. The plan would provide for a small increase in employment and $3.2 million in annual economic output due primarily to spending by recreationists. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Model simulations indicate that increased water demands due to population growth and other factors not related to the project would increase violations of federal temperature standards in the Sacramento River from 14 to 20 percent from 1995 to 2020. Recreational use of the Shasta Reservoir would be adversely affected somewhat due to drawdowns during dam releases. Long-term hydroelectric production would decline by six percent, though some of this lost power generation would be offset by decreased project use loads as a result of reduced water exports. Reduced water exports would be detrimental to the Central Valley economy. The placement of spawning gravel, the implementation of channel rehabilitation projects, and watershed protection activities could disturb cultural resource sites.

Preparation date: October 13, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - YELLOWSTONE PIPELINE, MISSOULA TO THOMPSON FALLS REROUTE; MINERAL, MISSOULA, AND SANDERS COUNTIES, MONTANA, AND SHOSHONE COUNTY, IDAHO. AN - 36408371; 7613 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of actions with respect to special-use permits for the construction and/or operation of oil pipeline segments in Lolo National Forest, located in western Montana, is proposed. The applicant, the Yellowstone Pipeline Company, would construct and operate a pipeline segment between the communities of Missoula and Plains, to reconnect their pipeline connecting the Billings terminus to the Moses Lake Yellowstone Pipeline system in Washington. The applicant would also change an existing pipeline requiring the renewal of a permit for a right-of-way easement across National Forest System lands between Missoula in Montana and Kingston in Idaho. A primary market for refined petroleum products produced by several refineries in the Billings area is located in eastern Washington and northern Idaho. The Yellowstone Pipeline between Billings and Moses Lake was built and has been operated largely to transport these products between the two areas. By the year 2010, the Montana shippers would be expected to ship approximately 15,000 more barrels of products per day to the eastern Washington markets via a continuous pipeline connection rather than, as is currently done, via train and truck between Missoula and Thompson Falls. Seven alternatives, including a No Action alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, a 67-mile route would connect the Plains area using a route through the eastern portion of Ninemile Valley. A pump station would be placed at Missoula. The existing pipeline segment under consideration for special-use permit purposes is the 82-mile pipeline extending from a point north of Plains to Kingston, using a pump station at Thompson Falls. Six route alternatives, including the applicant's proposal and a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative for the new segment of pipeline would proceed directly from Missoula to Kingston, generally paralleling Interstate 90 for most of its 138-mile length. The pipeline would extend west over Lookout Pass and through the Idaho towns of Mullan, Wallace, Silverton, Osburn, and Kellogg. A pump station would be located near the community of Saint Regis. The construction of the project would require eight months. This alternative would not use the applicant's existing pipeline between Plains and Kingston, so the existing pipeline would presumably be abandoned in the near future. POSITIVE IMPACTS: By allowing the applicant to construct and/or operate the pipeline segments under consideration, it would be able to provide a continuous, uninterrupted pipeline system between the Billings refineries and terminals in eastern Washington. Moreover, existing environmental and safety risks posed by the current pipeline and rail operations between Missoula and Kingston would be reduced. Transportation costs would also decline. The project would employ 798 construction workers. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 14.6 miles of pipeline would be constructed on very steep slopes, 39.4 miles on steep slopes, and 52 miles on soils with high liquefaction potential. The pipeline would traverse 107 watercourses, and 32 streams would suffer reduced water quality during construction. Bull trout and cutthroat trout would be adversely affected in some cases. Approximately 112 miles of highly sensitive aquifer susceptible to contamination from spills would be crossed, which could adversely affect 28 public water supply wells. Accidents would probably result in injuries and could result in fatalities, though the probability for the latter is very low. The pipeline would displace 0.4 acres of old growth and 24.2 acres of wetlands. It would also have a low to moderate adverse impact on elk and other big game habitat. Agricultural activities could be disrupted on 254 acres, and 4.5 miles of the pipeline could adversely affect other business activities. Approximately 1,800 residents would live and seven schools would be located within 1,000 feet of the pipeline. Twelve recreational sites and 9.6 miles of recreational trail could be adversely affected.

AN - 36412576; 7622 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan to restore and protect riparian and aquatic habitat in areas under the jurisdiction of the Taos Field Office of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), located in northeastern New Mexico, is proposed. The riparian management goals and objectives addressed include the maintenance of existing riparian areas that are in proper function condition (PFC), the improvement of degraded riparian conditions, the recovery of lost riparian areas, and the development of new riparian areas. Alternative strategies for accomplishing these goals and objectives are measured within the context of four criteria, specifically, the attainment of PFC, the protection of wildlife and species of special concern, the protection of cultural resources, and the balancing of socioeconomic considerations. The principal management issues considered in the analysis of alternative strategies are grazing, recreation, water resources development, and the control of invasive species. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), which would involve the continuation of the existing management plan, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 2) would implement an adaptive management regime that would place priority on the restoration and protection of all riparian habitats under BLM jurisdiction. Alternative 3 would emphasize grazing management, eliminating grazing by domestic livestock in riparian areas. Alternative 3 could involve the amendment of the Taos Resource Management Plan. The preferred alternative would assign the highest priority to implementing those management practices identified in current BLM management guidance to protect and restore all riparian habitats under BLM jurisdiction. The decisions regarding the land management activities associated with resources other than riparian habitat would be constrained to limit or prevent any adverse impact on riparian areas. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan implementation would enhance, protect, and preserve riparian lands within the affected areas of New Mexico, while allowing for the controlled development of other resources and protecting the socioeconomic well-being of residents. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The recreational use of riparian-wetland areas by off-road vehicles (ORV) would be minimized. The extent of land available for livestock grazing would decline, though socioeconomic impacts would be negligible over the long-term. Cultural and paleontological resources would continue to be damaged in areas where grazing was allowed. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

AN - 36405628; 7621 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan to restore and protect riparian and aquatic habitat in areas under the jurisdiction of the Las Cruces Field Office of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), located in southwestern New Mexico, is proposed. Riparian management goals and objectives addressed include the maintenance of existing riparian areas that are in proper function condition (PFC), the improvement of degraded riparian conditions, the recovery of lost riparian areas, and the development of new riparian areas. Alternative strategies for accomplishing these goals and objectives are measured within the context of four criteria, specifically, the attainment of PFC, the protection of wildlife and species of special concern, the protection of cultural resources, and the balancing of socioeconomic considerations. The principal management issues considered in the analysis of alternative strategies are grazing, recreation, water resources development, and the control of invasive species. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), which would involve the continuation of the existing management plan, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 2) would implement an adaptive management regime that would place priority on the restoration and protection of all riparian habitats under BLM jurisdiction. Alternative 3 would emphasize grazing management, eliminating grazing by domestic livestock in riparian areas. Alternative 3 could involve the amendment of the Mimbres Resource Management Plan. The preferred alternative would assign the highest priority to implementing those management practices identified in current BLM management guidance to protect and restore all riparian habitats under BLM jurisdiction. The decisions regarding land management activities associated with resources other than riparian habitat would be constrained to limit or prevent any adverse impact on riparian areas. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan implementation would enhance, protect, and preserve riparian lands within the affected areas of New Mexico, while allowing for the controlled development of other resources and protecting the socioeconomic well-being of residents. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The recreational use of riparian-wetland areas by off-road vehicles (ORV) would be minimized. The extent of land available for livestock grazing would decline, though socioeconomic impacts would be negligible over the long-term. Cultural and paleontological resources would continue to be damaged in areas where grazing was allowed. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

AN - 36404128; 7600 AB - PURPOSE: The reconstruction and relocation of County Road (CR) 22 (Mill Hill Road and Glen Road), including a new bridge over the East Branch of the Ausable River, located in northeastern New York, are proposed. Two main branches of the Ausable River are situated in the Western part of Essex County. These two branches unite at the hamlet of Ausable Forks, approximately six miles North of the hamlet of Jay. The principal river that drains the town of Jay is the Eastern Branch of the Ausable River, also referred to as the Little Ausable River, which flows East of Jay. The eastern branch of the Ausable River is susceptible to heavy flooding, major ice flows, and jams. The floodplain in the vicinity of the project is quite wide. In May of 1997, the existing covered bridge was found to be unsafe for public use and was closed by Essex County to all traffic. A temporary bridge was opened in July 1997 to maintain traffic. Three alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The Reconstruction Alternative would involve geometric improvements to CR 22 and the construction of a river crossing. Two alignments are also under consideration. The 120 Meters (400 feet) Downstream Alignment Option would involve the realignment of CR 22 from a point south of the Howard Drive intersection that would run east of the existing alignment and intersect State Route (SR) 9N approximately 500 feet east of the present SR 9N/SR 86/CR 22 intersection. Approximately 0.6 mile of two-lane roadway would be constructed on new alignment, along with a 375-foot bridge. The 430 Meters (1400 feet) Upstream Alignment Option would involve the realignment of CR 22 from a point south of the Howard Drive intersection that would run west of the existing alignment and intersect State Route (SR) 9N approximately 1500 feet west of the present SR 9N/SR 86/CR 22 intersection. Approximately 0.4 mile of two-lane roadway would be constructed on new alignment. The estimated costs of the 120 Meter Alternative and the 430 Meter Alternative are $4.47 million and $3.76 million, respectively. The estimated rights-of-way acquisition costs of the 120 Meter Alternative and the 430 Meter Alternative are $234,000 and $210,000, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide an adequate level of service for the affected stretch of CR 22, reduce or eliminate through traffic within parkland, facilitate truck traffic, and provide for dependable emergency access. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The acquisition and development of 4.7 to 9.6 acres of rights-of-way would displace seven to 15 properties, respectively. From 0.31 to 0.71 acre of wetlands would be adversely affected. Noise levels would exceed federal standards at some receptors.

Preparation date: September 28, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WINTER USE PLAN FOR THE YELLOWSTONE AND GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARKS AND THE JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER, JR., MEMORIAL PARKWAY; FREMONT COUNTY, IDAHO, GALATIN AND PARK COUNTIES, MONTANA, AND PARK AND TETON COUNTIES, WYOMING. AN - 16347831; 7591 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a winter use management plan for Yellowstone National Park (YNP), Grand Teton National Park (GTNP), and John D. Rockefeller, Jr., Memorial Parkway (Parkway), located in eastern Idaho, southern Montana, and northwestern Wyoming, is proposed. YNP, encompassing 2.22 million acres, and GTNP, comprising 310,000 acres, form the core of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, the last large, nearly intact ecosystem in the northern temperate zone. Issues addressed include visitor use and access, visitor experience, air quality, snowmobile sound, human health and safety, social and economic impacts, and natural resources. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), which would continue current use and management practices, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative B) would provide for a moderate range of affordable and appropriate winter visitor experiences. Air quality and oversnow motor vehicle sound would be addressed, and by the winter of the 2008-2009, strict emission and sound requirements would be enforced with respect to all oversnow vehicles entering the parks. The plan would emphasize an adaptive approach to park resource management, allowing for the results of new and ongoing research and monitoring to be incorporated into the management regime. Monitoring results demonstrating disturbance to wildlife or damage to park resources would be cause to implement actions for mitigating these conditions (for example, closure to winter use or trail restrictions). Specific management directives would be implemented for visitor use and access, human health and safety, local communities and adjacent lands, natural resources, socioeconomic resources, water resources, air quality, wildlife and wildlife habitat (including species of special concern), natural quiet, cultural resources, and visitor experience. Alternative C would maximize winter visitor opportunities for a range of park experiences, while preserving natural resources and addressing safety concerns. Alternative would stress visitor access to unique winter features in the parks. It would emphasize clean, quiet modes of travel, visitor activities focused near destination areas, and a minimization of conflicts between nonmotorized and motorized users. Alternative E would emphasize the protection of wildlife and natural resources while allowing park visitors access to a range of winter recreation experiences. It would use an adaptive planning approach that would allow new information to be incorporated. Alternative F would stress the protection of wildlife resources by focusing winter visitor activities in YNP outside important winter range for large ungulate species, and closing north and west roads to winter use. For GTNP and the Parkway, it would emphasize the protection of all resources by focusing developments, oversnow motorized trails and zones, and nonmotorized trails and zones in certain areas, while still allowing park visitors opportunities for a range of winter recreational experiences. Alternative G would place the highest priority on clean quiet oversnow access to the parks using present technologies. The estimated initial cost of implementing the plan is $11.6 million. The estimated total annual costs are $90.3 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would ensure that visitors have a range of quality winter experiences and settings at their disposal, from primitive to developed. Recreational experiences would be offered in appropriate settings, preventing significant adverse impacts to sensitive natural, cultural, and recreational resources. Winter recreation would complement the unique aspects of each landscape within the ecosystem. High-quality facilities would be provided in parks to support the need for safety and enhanced visitor experiences. Conflicts among user groups would be minimized. Visitors would be informed regarding safe participation in winter use activities that would not damage resources. Snowmobile noise and air and water pollutant emissions would be minimized. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Bison management actions could adversely affect visitation levels or conflict with preferred winter recreational use. Geothermal features within the YNP management area could be subject to trampling by wildlife, compaction by skiers, and acts of vandalism by visitors. Winter pedestrian use increases due to enhanced access could result to impacts in the area of the Old Faithful geyser. Winter ungulate ranges could also be affected. Emissions from two-stroke engines would be deposited on snow and ice packs. Land management activities, such as road reconstruction and livestock grazing, sand and gravel mining, water use and treatment, and backcountry summer use, could also adversely affect watershed resources. Increased backcountry skiing in remote, high-elevation areas could displace wolverines to less suitable habitats. LEGAL MANDATES: Executive Order 11644.

AN - 36422490; 7588 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a resource management plan (RMP) for lands administered by the Bureau of Reclamation (BLM) at the Elephant Butte and Caballo Reservoirs Project Area, located in south-central New Mexico, is proposed. The reservoirs constitute major components of the Rio Grande Project. In recent years, portions of the project area have experienced a sharp increase in recreation-oriented visitation and adjacent private land development that has increased demands on project area recreational and natural resources. The RMP would provide a conceptual framework for the conservation, protection, development, use, enhancement, and management of resources within the area. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative C), which would emphasize multi-purpose use of the area, would involve the expansion of developed recreation areas, the improvement of primitive recreation areas, and the designation of wildlife management areas. New facilities and roads would be developed, including facilities for boating, camping, picnicking, hiking, and biking. The existing recreational facilities would be maintained. Facilities that improve or protect environmental would also be included, as well as the regulation and information systems to provide for public education. Cooperative land use agreements with jurisdictions managing surrounding lands would be pursued. One to several lease lot areas could be privatized. Other lease lot areas would be phased out over the long-term according the BLM policy allowing for the amortization of personal property investments. Lease holders not included in the proposed privatization would be offered the opportunity to relocate to an area designated for privatization. Grazing could be limited, reduced, increased, or maintained based on the capability of the resources to sustain grazing. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The potential for injury of recreationists would be reduced, and damage to personal property would decline. Grazing would be regulated in a more effective manner through the development of an allotment-specific grazing management plan. The concentrations of pollutants in reservoir and downstream waters would decline somewhat. The number of lease lot areas contributing effluents would decline significantly. The functional capacities of riparian wetland would be enhanced, as would the quality of wildlife habitat in general. Fishery habitat, reproduction and recruitment indices, and the general fishing experience would be enhanced. Thirteen archaeological sites would benefit from RMP activities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The rate of shoreline retreat along the reservoirs would be primarily depended on fluctuating water levels. Reservoir sedimentation would continue at the current rate. The potential for ground disturbance would increase. The RMP activities would damage 156 archaeological sites. The fiscal condition of local communities would decline somewhat. The RMP would reduce available forage for livestock grazing from 9,698 animal unit months (AUMs) to 3,890 AUMs, resulting in a loss of up to $251,591 in operator income. The extent of primitive recreation areas would decline.

AN - 36414948; 7592 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of the Airport Parkway/Mississippi 25 (MS 25) Connectors, located in the south-central Mississippi, is proposed. Extensive development along MS 25 and the completion of the Jackson International Airport have greatly increased traffic levels in the corridor. Areas of concern include cultural resources, wetlands, floodplains, water quality, threatened and endangered species, public lands and wildlife resources, noise, air quality, potential hazardous waste sites, residential and business displacement, economic development potential, utilities, and traffic. Eight alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this final EIS. All build alternatives would involve the construction of the connectors on new alignments. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative D), the Airport Parkway, a limited-access freeway facility, would begin at the existing intersection of High Street and Interstate 55 (I-55) and extend eastward, crossing the Pearl River, for approximately 4.3 kilometers (2.6 miles) to its eastern terminus with Old Brandon and Airport Road (MS 475), south of the Jackson International Airport. The MS 25 Connector would begin at a point approximately 4.2 kilometers (2.6 miles) east of the western terminus of the Airport Parkway Connector, from which point it would proceed northeasterly for approximately 6.4 kilometers (4.0 miles) terminating at MS 25 (Lakeland Drive) within the community of Luckney. The total length of both connectors would be 14.9 kilometers (9.3 miles). A transportation system management alternative and a multimodal alternative are also under consideration. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would improve the operational efficiency and accessibility of the transportation system in the central and eastern portions of the Jackson metropolitan area, particularly with respect to access to the Jackson Municipal Airport. The additional crossing of the Pearl River, provided by the project, would provide needed relief to MS 25, Flowood Drive (MS 468), US 80, and I-20. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The rights-of-way development would result in the potential relocation of five single-family dwellings, two mobile homes, two commercial structures, and one nonprofit organization (Junior Achievement of Mississippi). Noise levels at 16 occupied facilities would approach or exceed federal standards. The project would encroach on the 100-year floodplain of the Pearl River, though the encroachment would not be longitudinal in nature and floodplain areas would continue to function at current levels. Approximately 31.1 hectares (76.9 acres) of wetlands would be adversely affected.

AN - 36414844; 7576 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a cooperative management plan by Minnesota, Wisconsin, and federal authorities for the Lower Saint Croix National Scenic River, located in eastern Minnesota and western Wisconsin, is proposed. The study corridor extends 52 miles from Saint Croix Falls/Taylor Falls to the confluence of the river with the Mississippi. The plan would provide general direction for managing the river corridor over the next 15 to 20 years. Specifically, the plan would preserve and protect (and restore and enhance where appropriate) the riverway's ecological integrity, its unimpounded condition, its natural and scenic resources, and its significant historic resources. It would accommodate a diverse range of recreational opportunities that do not detract from the exceptional natural, historic, scenic, and aesthetic resources. It would also provide an environment that allows the opportunity for peace and solitude, as well as an opportunity for the education and study of the geologic, historic, ecological, and aesthetic values to further enhance stewardship of the river. Six alternatives for land and water resources management, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative E), are considered in this draft EIS. In general, all alternatives would maintain long stretches of the lower riverway's natural and cultural landscape and allow users to continue to find opportunities for a variety of recreational experiences. Alternative E would perpetuate existing land and recreational use patterns, following the 1976 Master Plan. The preferred alternative would maintain long stretches of the lower riverway's natural and rural landscape, while allowing limited, planned development in communities that would be consistent with the historic character of those communities. The preferred alternative would address land use, vegetation management, river crossings, island and shoreline management, water surface use, user carrying capacity, navigation channel maintenance, cultural resources protection, and land protection and boundary adjustments. In addition to the alternatives, five options, including the continuation of the existing management structure (Option 4), are under consideration for the management structure of the riverway. Under the preferred option, minor adjustments would be made in policy development and land and water use management. POSITIVE IMPACTS: While protecting and enhancing the historic and ecological values of the river and associated lands, the preferred alternative would allow for the extensive use of river resources, including recreational resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would increase the extent of the restrictions on uses of the river, including the restrictions on high-speed boaters and island campers, and cause some conflicts between local landowners and recreationists.

Preparation date: September 9, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WHISKEYTOWN UNIT GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLAN, TRINITY NATIONAL RECREATION AREA, SHASTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36409857; 7580 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a new management, use, and development plan for the Whiskeytown Unit of the Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area, located in northern California, is proposed. The 42,500-acre park lies approximately eight miles west of downtown Redding. Elevations range from 800 feet in lower Clear Creek below Whiskeytown Dam to over 6,200 feet atop Shasta Bally. Vegetation is a mixture of pine forest, riparian associations, and chaparral. Boulder Creek, the centerpiece of the area created by an earthfill dam on Clear Creek, has a surface area of approximately 3,200 acres. The park has averaged 850,000 visitors annually for the past four years. Four alternatives, including the No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this final EIS. The proposed alternative (which would be similar to Alternative C as described in the draft EIS) would emphasize nature-oriented, water-based recreation, such as sailing, canoeing, and fishing, and expand opportunities for visitor discovery and for enjoyment of the significant natural and cultural resources of the park as well as opportunities for escape from the noise and crowing associated with urban and suburban environments. The use of personal watercraft, which has a major negative impact on the quality of low- impact, nature-oriented experiences, would be eliminated. Increased emphasis would be placed on visitor enjoyment of backcountry opportunities and enhanced interpretation of cultural and natural resources, including Gold Rush history, archaeology, Wintu indigenous culture, watershed restoration, threatened and endangered species, and fire management. Staff increases would be effected to augment resource management and protection. Staff would also be added with respect to education and interpretation functions. A Clear Creek Watershed Management Education Center would be established to promote watershed restoration throughout the region. The recreational facilities on the lake would be modified to provide a broader range of opportunities, including boat-in and walk-in rustic tent sites near the mouth of Boulder Creek and opportunities for boat camping on the lake. Backcountry touring and camping opportunities would also be expended. The estimated capital costs for the proposed alternative, including costs of major facilities replacements, are $17.5 million. The estimated annual operating costs are $3.5 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In addition to providing additional recreational opportunities appropriate to the purpose of the park, the management plan would preserve the resources associated with the lake and the surrounding lands. Visitor use would be managed within the carrying capacity of the available recreational resources. Air quality monitoring within the park would be improved. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The development of the new boat-in and walk-in campsites, an around-the- lake-trail, new primitive backcountry campsites, and a road picnic and staging area at Merry Mountain would disturb soil and vegetation and associated wildlife habitat.

Preparation date: September 7, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GREAT RIVER BRIDGE, US 65 IN ARKANSAS TO STATE HIGHWAY 8 IN MISSISSIPPI, DESHA COUNTY, ARKANSAS, AND BOLIVAR COUNTY, MISSISSIPPI (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF NOVEMBER 1996). AN - 36409933; 7573 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a bridge over the Mississippi River connecting Desha County in southeastern Arkansas, with Rosedale in Bolivar County in northwestern Mississippi, is proposed. The project corridor would extend 25 to 34 miles, depending on the route alternative selected. Rosedale, which is located at the convergence of the Arkansas and Mississippi rivers, is the site of a developing water port. Since 1977, key area leaders have argued that a bridge carrying rail and highway traffic over the Mississippi River would spur economic development. Six alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this draft supplement to the final EIS of November 1996. Each action alternative would consist of a two-lane highway with no control of access and a single-track railroad located immediately adjacent to and parallel to the roadway. The typical right-of-way width for the bridge would be 200 feet between the Mississippi River levees and 250 feet outside the levees. Outside the levees, the highway and railroad would lie on earthen embankment with infrequent bridge or culvert structures for the crossing of minor streams and drainageways. Between the Mississippi River levees, the improvements would be constructed entirely on bridge structures. The bridge crossings of the main channels of the Arkansas and Mississippi rivers would be accomplished in accordance with federal navigational requirements. The configuration options for the main span bridges would include a combination roadway and railroad bridge or separate bridges; either configuration would fit within the typical right-of-way. The preferred alternative (the Southern Alternative, Alternative 5) would connect US 65 and the Union Pacific Railroad on the north side of McGehee, Arkansas, and cross the Mississippi River approximately two miles north of Arkansas City, Arkansas, immediately downstream of Cypress Bend and Catfish Point. The eastern terminus of this alternative would consist of a connection to Route 1 and the Great River Railroad, a short distance north of Benolit, Mississippi, approximately 13 miles south of Rosedale. The facility would extend 24.6 miles. The estimated high- and low-end capital costs for the project are $517 million and $604 million, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The structure would provide a convenient river crossing for those living near Rosedale and Dumas, Arkansas. It would also attract new industry to the region, expand existing industry in the region, expand the employment base, and attract tourists to the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The bridge would adversely affect aesthetic and visual values of views of the river, including the view from the Great River Road State Park. Two residences in Arkansas and one church in Mississippi would be exposed to increased noise levels. Approximately 60 percent of the alignment of the project would pass through minority census areas and 40 percent would pass through low- income areas. Approximately 587 acres of farmland would be displaced. The project would traverse 11.7 miles within five floodplains and displace 94 acres of wetland.

The district comprises the upper portion of the Koyukuk River drainage basin, the headwaters of which lie on the southern flank of the Brooks Range. The federal government manages 72% of the land within the district. District production totals approximately 286,000 ounces of placer gold and six tons of antimony ore. In 1998 there were 13 active placer mines in the district. There are 407 documented mines, prospects, and mineral occurrences within the district. These include gold placers; gold- and antimony-bearing quartz veins; copper- and zinc-bearing massive sulfides; copper-bearing porphyries; tungsten-, copper-, and tin-bearing skarns; tin-bearing greisens; chromite; and coal. A total of 175 sites have been examined to date and 960 rock, soil, stream sediment, pan concentrate, and placer samples collected. A portion of the study, consisting of an airborne geophysical survey, was done in cooperation with the Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys (ADGGS). Ground magnetic and electromagnetic conductivity surveys were done by AMRT as a followup to the airborne survey. In addition ground penetrating radar surveys were conducted over known placer deposits to identify channel locations and bedrock depth. Significant results from the first two years of this assessment include the delineation of anomalous gold values within volcanic rocks on the upper Indian River, anomalous placer gold in bench gravels above the Hammond River, gold-bearing quartz veinlets on nearby Vermont and Smith Creeks, and gold anomalies associated with skarn and massive sulfide occurrences in the Chandalar copper belt north of Bettles River.

AN - 36411658; 7589 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan for the future use and operation of the Contra Loma Reservoir, located in western California, is proposed. The Contra Costa Water District (CCWD) is proposing to comply with a California State Department of Health Services order that requires recreational body contact activities in the reservoir cease or that CCWD stop using the reservoir for domestic water supply storage. Major issues addressed include those related to water resources and quality, recreation, visual resources, fisheries, vegetation, wildlife, geology, seismicity and soils, cultural resources, land use, public health, transportation, air quality, noise, energy, public services, socioeconomic conditions, and growth-inducing and cumulative impacts. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative and a No Project Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. The CCWD's proposed action would permanently stop body contact activities in the reservoir in September 1999 and replace certain recreational uses by constructing a swimming lagoon within the existing reservoir footprint. A concrete-covered earthen berm would physically separate the lagoon from the main portion of the 80-acre reservoir. Water in the lagoon would be pumped, filtered, and treated to appropriate water quality standards for recreational use. This would allow existing drinking water and swimming uses to continue at the reservoir. Other alternatives under consideration include the ceasing of the use of the reservoir for drinking water supply and the reservoir for body contact activities, as well as the construction of a water treatment plant and conveyance system (pipeline and pump station) to enable the continued use of the reservoir for both purposes and the provision of a connection between the East Bay Municipal Utility District's Mokelumne Aqueduct and the CCWD conveyance system so that water could be used as available from EBMUD, allowing the reservoir to cease to be used as a means of supplying potable water. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would enable CCWD to continue using the reservoir for its historic domestic water supply purposes, including use of the reservoir for meeting peaking requirements and use for system reliability during shutdowns and other emergencies. Drinking water supplies and the health of swimmers would be safeguarded. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would lie within a seismically active area, which is also characterized by high shrink and swell potential that could result in subsidence. Body contact recreational opportunities at the reservoir site would decline significantly. The construction activities would result in the disturbance of wetlands, vegetation, and associated wildlife habitat, including habitat for special-status species, and could result in disturbance of culturally significant sites. Facility maintenance requirements would increase. The swimming lagoon could result in a small change in the size and number of standing waves that could form in the reservoir in the event of a seiche.

Temporal trends in sediment concentrations of arsenic, lead, mercury, zinc, DDT, chlordane, PCBs, and PAHs are summarized. Overall sediment quality has improved since the 1960s with large declines in organochlorine compounds levels and some decreases in metals. Of the major groups of contaminants recorded, PAHs are the only ones steadily increasing through the mid-199-s. Increases in chlordane and PAHs are indicative of water quality degradation from urbanization.

AN - 36420516; 7559 AB - PURPOSE: The leasing of federal reserves within the Iron Point and Elk Creek Coal Lease tracts and the issuance of an exploration license within and surrounding the Iron Point Coal Lease Tract, located in western Colorado, are proposed. The Iron Point and Elk Creek tracts encompass 3,403 acres and 3,703 acres, respectively, while the exploration license tract encompasses 6,053 acres. The tracts lie within in the Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, and Gunnison national forests. The lease applicants are Bowie Resources Ltd. and Oxbow Mining, Inc., both of which wish to continue their existing coal mining operations in the region. Major issues identified during scoping include the potential effects of transporting over 19 million tons of coal per year from the North Fork Valley via the Union Pacific Railroad, the effects of increased highway traffic on State Highway 133, the potential effects of mining on the integrity of watersheds and irrigation facilities within and around the lease tracts, the effects to the local socioeconomic structure of the affected counties, and the cumulative effects of coal exploration and mining on the region. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative with respect to the two standard leases would be a combination of the applicants' proposal (Alternative B) and an alternative emphasizing subsidence protection (Alternative D); both alternatives would provide for leasing with standard special coal lease stipulations, but the alternatives differ as to whether subsidence would be allowed under perennial drainages and as to whether additional seams and acreage would be included. The federal authorities involved have decided that the protection of perennial drainages would be necessary in order to maintain watershed integrity and ecosystem health. The coal recovery would range from 45 million tons (Alternative B) to 66 million tons (Alternative D). The preferred alternative with respect to the exploration lease (Alternative B) would provide standards and special surface use stipulations to reduce potential surface impacts. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The mines would produce coal for regional use. The federal government would receive royalties from the lease holders and the state of Colorado and the affected counties would continue to receive annual tax revenues related to mining operations conducted by the applicants and from mine employees. The continuation of mining activities would maintain the employment base for this sector in the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Due to increased coal production, emissions of air pollutants from the mining operation in the North Fork Valley of the Gunnison River area and from coal trains operating in the region would increase. The underground longwall mining would cause subsidence, lowering the land surface over mined areas, causing geologic cracking in some areas, and potentially disrupting stream flows and ponds. The fracturing and subsidence would adversely affect groundwater flows, and mining and dewatering could degrade groundwater quality. The construction of boreholes, shafts, and other facilities would disturb 33.5 acres of surface vegetation and soils and associated wildlife habitat. The dewatering of one coal seam could flow into some sections of Hubbard Creek, and discharges from mine to surface streams could adversely affect water quality in receiving flows. The wetland habitat associated with Hubbard and Terror creeks could be adversely affected. The truck and train traffic would generate noise, adversely affecting residences along transportation routes and increasing traffic congestion.

Preparation date: August 26, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WHITMAN MISSION NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE, WALLA WALLA COUNTY, WASHINGTON. AN - 36409570; 7556 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a 15-year general management plan for the Whitman Mission National Historic Site, located in southeastern Washington, is proposed. The 98.15-acre site is located to the west of the Blue Mountains, approximately seven miles west of the city of Walla Walla. In 1836, Marcus and Narcissa Whitman arrived at a valley near the confluence of the Walla Walla River and Mill Creek to set up a Christian mission to convert the Cayuse people. The couple subsequently clashed with the local Native American inhabitants and were killed along with 11 other persons, an action that contributed to federal intervention in the region, the reaffirmation of territorial claims, the settlement of disputed territory with England, the formal establishment of the Oregon Territory in 1848, and the impetus for the signing of the Walla Walla treaty by five Native American tribes. On May 21, 1962, the mission site was designated as a national historic site. The site is also tied historically to the Oregon Trail, designated as a national trail under the 1968 National Trails System Act and the Oregon National Historic Trail Act of 1978. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative C) would emphasize enhanced visitor experience by providing for a three-dimensional delineation of the original structures and substituting native grasses for the existing lawn at the Madison Grounds, providing a recreational trail along the riparian area of the Walla Walla River, constructing additional exhibit and administrative space within the visitor center, and encouraging the acquisition of conservation easements on visually sensitive properties adjacent to the national historic site by a nonprofit land trust. In addition, the scheme would contain one development concept plan. The actions under this plan would include reconfiguring the main parking lot, adding a group shelter to the picnic area, adding several improvements to the visitor center entrance, constructing additional administrative space on the existing administrative wing, and reconfiguring the pedestrian access to the Oregon National Historic Trail and the Mission Grounds. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The site developments would restore the site to conditions more closely approximating those of the original settlement. Improved visitor facilities would ease interpretation of the site by visitors. The preservation of the site would be ensured for future generations. The existing administrative facility conflicts would be eliminated. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activities would temporarily adversely affect air quality and generate noise in excess of normal ambient levels.

Preparation date: August 25, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WHITE RIVER AMPHITHEATRE, MUCKLESHOOT INDIAN RESERVATION, KINGS COUNTY, WASHINGTON. AN - 36422398; 7551 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a 20,000-seat open-air amphitheater to be known as the White River Amphitheatre, located on the Muckleshoot Indian Reservation located in the western (Seattle-Tacoma) area of Washington, is proposed. The Seattle- Tacoma area is one of five metropolitan areas with a population of over 2.0 million lacking a large outdoor amphitheater. The Muckleshoot Indian Tribe (Tribe), which currently has approximately 1,600 enrolled members, is located on the southeast corner of the six-square-mile Muckleshoot Indian Reservation, approximately 25 miles southeast of Seattle between the cities of Auburn and Enumclaw. The Tribe and Bill Graham Presents (BGP) entered into a management agreement that provides that the Tribe would own and BGP would manage the facilities. The amphitheater construction began in 1997, but was suspended in July 1998 to allow the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Army Corps of Engineers, and the Washington Department of Transportation to conduct further environmental reviews. Approximately 45 acres of the site have been converted to a partially constructed amphitheater and completed stormwater pond. The existing amphitheater bowl, roof structure, berm, roads, and gravel parking areas currently are vacant. Also on the site is the Tribe's Drug and Alcohol Counseling Center. Approximately 45 acres of undisturbed area on site are undeveloped grassland. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (Alternative 2) would develop a 95-acre tract bounded by State Route 164 on the east, Southeast 408th Street on the south, the White River bluffs on the west, and Southeast 404th Street on the north, for a 20,000-seat amphitheater, surface parking, and associated facilities. Approximately 70 acres would be converted to structures and surface parking for 6,322 to 7,300 vehicles, and access to State Route 164 would be improved. Another 25 acres would be converted to landscaping and buffers, including a shielding berm along the southern boundary. The amphitheater would consist of a main stage, a 10,000-seat bowl with fixed seating, a grass berm for informal lawn seating, and an open-air roof to cover the stage and fixed seating. Support facilities would include a ticket and administrative office, public rest rooms, concession stands, cafes, a center bar, a loading dock, and a hospitality area for performers. A drug and alcohol counseling center would be built on about eight acres in the northwest corner of the part of the site above the bluff. The Canoe Lodge, which would be located within the complex, would be used for Tribal meetings and small events and as a restaurant during concert events. The completion of the amphitheater would require seven months, plus an additional two to three months for start-up and owner equipment setup. All facilities would be completed by the spring of 2001, ready for operation during the summer 2001 concert season. The facility would provide a venue for 30 to 40 concerts per year. The Combined Gravel Quarry Site Alternative (Alternative 3) would include the development of a gravel quarry along with the amphitheater. The 10,000 Seat Alternative (Alternative 4) would include the construction of a 10,000-seat amphitheater. The Site Restoration Alternative (Alternative 5) would include the restoration of the current construction site following the removal of the unfinished facilities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The economically competitive performing arts center would serve the greater Seattle-Tacoma concert market and provide for cultural and educational events and community gatherings and events for the Muckleshoot Tribe. The amphitheater would also provide additional revenues for the Muckleshoot Tribe, which has suffered due to declining federal funding in recent years. The newly created jobs would ease unemployment among Muckleshoot Tribe members. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Unless removed and reclaimed, the facility would displace grassland, constituting the chief land use of the site. Less than 0.33 acres of wetlands would be filled, and this impact would be mitigated by the creation of approximately 1.5 acres of wetlands on the site. The noise and light and glare during the use of the facility would constitute a minor adverse effect. The traffic levels generated by concerts and other events would constitute a major adverse effect. LEGAL MANDATES: Executive Order 11988, Executive Order 11990, and Executive Order 12898.

Preparation date: August 19, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CALIFORNIA NATIONAL HISTORIC TRAIL, PONY EXPRESS NATIONAL HISTORIC TRAIL, OREGON NATIONAL HISTORIC TRAIL, AND MORMON NATIONAL HISTORIC TRAIL; CALIFORNIA, COLORADO, IDAHO, ILLINOIS, IOWA, KANSAS, MISSOURI, NEBRASKA, NEVADA, OREGON, UTAH, WASHINGTON, AND WYOMING. AN - 36414818; 7548 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of comprehensive management and use plans for the Oregon, California, Mormon Pioneer, and Pony Express national historic trails, located in California, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming, is proposed. These historic trails commemorate important aspects of American history in the 19th century. They facilitated settlement of a large portion of the western United States, fostered commerce, and encouraged the development of a transportation and communication network. The trails also dramatically affected American Indian culture and resulted in the loss of much of their land and resources. The trails inspired a romantic movement in art, literature, and cinema that has had a tremendous impact on popular culture in the United States. The trails did not follow a single route; rather numerous branches and cutoffs were used by the emigrants heading West. The corridor for the trail routes covers close to 14,000 miles in portions of 13 states and includes many significant cultural and natural resources. The comprehensive plan outlined in this final EIS would serve as a coordinating document providing broad-based policies, guidelines, and standards for administering the trails to ensure the protection of trail resources, their interpretation, and their continued use. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this final EIS. The proposed action (Alternative 2) would focus on enhancing resource preservation and visitor use through integrated development and programming and implementing a comprehensive strategy for resource protection, including an ambitious program to inventory and monitor resources that would bring together, in one location, currently dispersed information. The Long Distance Trails Office, based in Salt Lake City, would take a leading role in implementing the plan. The office would administer the four trails by fostering better communication along federal, state, and local resource managers and nonprofit trails organizations. It would also serve as a clearinghouse for information about trail routes, significant resources, and technical assistance for management, resource protection, interpretation, and visitor use. A geographic information system (GIS) has been used to map most of the routes and locations of all the high-potential sites and segments associated with the trails. This data, in conjunction with the computerized data set of trail resources generated during the planning process, would become the starting point for a systematic and coordinated effort to use the Salt Lake City office as the central repository for all trail resource information. In addition to administrative and management, resource protection, interpretation, visitor experience, and use components, the plan would include components to promote study of historic trails resources, archeological resources, land ownership and use, GIS mapping, American Indians, trail route and site verification, actions involving the U.S. Army, additional routes for the Oregon and California national historic trails, and visitor use monitoring. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Either alternative plan would balance resource preservation and visitor use goals to provide for the outdoor recreation needs of an expanding population while promoting preservation of public access and enjoyment and appreciation of the outdoors and historic resources of the nation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The installation of route signs along paved highways, trail markers, and interpretive waysides would alter the surroundings visually. Increased visitor use could adversely affect soils and vegetation. LEGAL MANDATES: National Trails System Act of 1968 (16 U.S.C. 1241 et seq.).

Preparation date: August 18, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NAVAJO TEN-YEAR FOREST MANAGEMENT PLAN ALTERNATIVES; APACHE, COCONINO, AND NAVAJO COUNTIES, ARIZONA; MCKINLEY AND SAN JUAN COUNTIES, NEW MEXICO; SAN JAUN COUNTY, UTAH; AND THE NAVAJO NATION. AN - 36414792; 7544 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a 10-year land and resource management plan for the Navajo Forest, located in Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and the Navajo Nation, is proposed. The 596,724-acre forest lies in the Chuska Mountains and Defiance Plateau areas of the Navajo Nation along the Arizona-New Mexico border. This pine and fir upland ecosystem is a primary Navajo domestic water source and contains the highest levels of wildlife diversity on the Navajo Nation. For hundreds of years, the forest has provided the Navajo People with transitional resources, including firewood, construction material, grazing land, food, herbal medicines, ceremonial items, leased areas, and raw material for crafts. The forest continues to provide these same resources as well as a diverse biological habitat for a variety of wildlife. Seven plant and animal species occurring on the Navajo Forest are listed as threatened and endangered or as candidate species by the federal government. Additionally, nineteen threatened and endangered species found on the forest are listed or are candidates for the Navajo Nation Endangered Species Act. The forest also contains substantial timber resources, with 311,617 acres considered available for commercial logging. To the Navajo people, the region is considered the male deity and contains sacred places Navajo traditional elders use for sacred offerings and herb gathering. Furthermore, the forest contains numerous sacred old-growth Yellow Pines that take over 200 years to mature. These are called "the Grandfather Trees" and they watch over the sacred ceremonies of the forest. Major issues include those associated with timber resources and logging, other forest resources, socioeconomics, water resources, biological resources, cultural resources, and air quality. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would perpetuate the current management regime (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 4), which would implement an even-aged and uneven-aged management approach, would designate 253,754 acres for commercial logging land, 79,205 acres for non- forested uses, 128,894 acres as administratively unavailable, 60,137 acres as less productive, and 74,735 as special management areas. The alternative would promote logging within sites with the highest commercial value; manage the forest landscape toward a mosaic of even-aged forest blocks of 100 acres or less, interspersed with lands removed from commercial timber logging and connected by corridors of uneven-aged forest in which stand structural diversity would be maximized; restore and protect unique wildlife habitat through the restriction of timber logging, forest protection activities, mitigation measures, and monitoring of sensitive species and rangeland; regenerate over- mature stands while maintaining some large trees for recruitment into new stands and increasing average tree diameter across the forest; obtain acceptable forest growth and maximize volume production while providing forage and other multiple- use benefits; provide conditions suitable for establishment of natural and artificial regeneration; satisfy local demand for firewood and poles; control erosion and sedimentation of streams through closure an reclamation of 125 miles of road; and enhance recreational resources by developing a 1.5-mile hiking trail. Logging techniques would include single-tree selection logging on 24,000 acres, group selection logging on 8,100 acres, and group shelterwood cut logging on 13,000 acres. Specific mitigation measures would be outlined for Chuska Tassle-eared squirrel, red squirrel, blue grouse, mule deer, black bear, northern goshawk, Mexican spotted owl, and peregrine falcon. The estimated annual timber management expenses for implementation of the preferred alternative are $529,022. Depending on the stumpage rate, the plan would generate $1.2 million to $2.7 million in timber revenue. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Plan implementation would promote the sustained use and protection of forest resources, guide development of multi-year implementation programs under congressional mandate, and provide direction to achieve on-the-ground results. Demand for forest products would be met while protection of the forest ecosystem would be ensured. Approximately 63 jobs would be created, including 52 for Navajo workers, generating an overall wage income of $1.5 million and a Navajo wage income of $1.3 million. The preferred alternative would have the greatest positive impact with respect to habitat for threatened and endangered species. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Prescribed fire would degrade aesthetics and air quality. Timber logging would result in erosion and sedimentation of receiving waters, destroy wildlife habitat temporarily, and negatively affect forest homesite residents.

Preparation date: August 13, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - COMPREHENSIVE MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR THE GREAT EGG HARBOR NATIONAL SCENIC AND RECREATIONAL RIVER; ATLANTIC, CAMDEN, CAPE MAY, AND GLOUCESTER COUNTIES, NEW JERSEY (SECOND DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT). AN - 36419072; 7539 AB - PURPOSE: The establishment of a comprehensive management plan for the Great Egg Harbor National Scenic and Recreational River, located in southern coastal New Jersey, is proposed. The 129-mile designated river corridor lies within and is representative of rivers in the Pinelands ecosystem and the Embayed Coastal Plain physiographic province of New Jersey. The corridor is already substantially protected for future generations due to public ownership of 25 percent of the surrounding lands and to the situation of 99 percent of the river in the Pinelands National Reserve. Congressional legislation directed the development of local river management plans by each of the 12 affected municipalities as well as a joint development of a comprehensive management plan by the National Park Service (NPS). A two-tier approach to the management of the designated corridor acknowledges both the importance and preference for local leadership and the additional protection afforded by federal wild and scenic river designation. Local authorities have been encouraged to develop local river management boundaries that exceed the recommended federal boundary of 0.25 mile from high water on either side of the river. The comprehensive management plan addressed in this draft EIS would establish the basic philosophy of resource protection and provide a rationale for making management decisions that affect those resources. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative I), which would continue the present management regime, are considered in this second draft EIS. Alternative IV, the preferred alternative, would establish an independent river council under the existing Great Egg Harbor Watershed Association (GEHWA). Local river management plans and the comprehensive management plan would be the basis for decision-making. The NPS would have a strong partnership with the council and assist in implementing visitor service initiatives, education, and oversight. Much of the NPS involvement would be effected through the use of cooperative agreements, bylaws and procedures in conformance with state and federal laws would be developed. The council would enter into an agreement with the NPS and would refine needs and seek partnerships with landowners, businesses, and local, state, and federal agencies to implement the comprehensive management plan. Funding partnerships with other state, local, and non-profit organizations would be established. The Congressional mandate established a $70,000 appropriation ceiling for planning assistance. This ceiling would be exceeded for all management alternatives except the No Action Alternative. Alternative II would establish an Advisory Council within the Atlantic County Government. Alternative III would provide for more detailed NPS management. The estimated annual budget for the preferred alternative is $255,000. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The establishment of the council under Alternative IV would protect water quality, preserve natural features, provide for recreational and agricultural uses, conserve river resources, and maintain existing land use patterns. Using GEHWA as the mechanism for establishing an independent council would be particularly appropriate given the former organization's history of involvement and its non-profit status with the Internal Revenue Service. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: NONE. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 102-536 and Wild and Scenic Rivers Act of 1968, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1271 et seq.).

AN - 36414833; 7537 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of an off-road vehicle (ORV) management plan for the Big Cypress National Preserve, located in southern Florida, is proposed. The preserve was established in 1974 to preserve the natural and recreational values of the Big Cypress Watershed. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft supplement to the final EIS of October 1991 on the general management plan. Under the proposed action, the National Park Service (NPS) would adopt a process for ORV management and would be guided by specific ORV management procedures and criteria. The methods to avoid or minimize negative ORV impacts would include stricter regulation of ORV use, the implementation of preserve-wide and unit-specific management objectives, and the mitigation of previous impacts. The management strategies would include monitoring to determine the degree of previous impacts, observing the effectiveness of reclamation programs, restoring previously impacted areas, and identifying potential research areas. A vehicle permit system, operating standards, and vehicle specification would be adopted. The NPS would only issue permits for ORVs that meet requirements for vehicle weight and tire size, vehicle width, noise control, and other equipment. Access points would be specified and developed. Criteria would be developed for determining when a unit should be closed or use of a unit should be restricted. Responsible ORV use would be promoted through education and communication provisions, including the provision of an ORV manual. A range of ORV and non-ORV experiences would be provided. The estimated cost of administration, processing permit applications, educating visitors, enforcing ORV roles and regulations, monitoring, and reclamation is estimated at $70,000 per year. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would have beneficial impacts on water quality and surface water flows over the long-term. Impacts to soils and vegetation would be reduced and recovery of damaged soils and vegetation would be promoted. Habitat for wildlife, including white-tailed deer, feral hogs, and threatened and endangered species, would be protected and enhanced. The noise and visual intrusion experienced by non-ORV users would be reduced significantly. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction of ORV access points would displace 13.5 acres of vegetation, including some wetland vegetation, and could affect water flow and quality, though these impacts would be minor and temporary. Restriction of ORV access could diminish recreational opportunities for some ORV users, including hunters.

AN - 36414501; 7538 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a vegetative management program for the Bonneville Power Administration (Bonneville) transmission system in the Pacific Northwest is proposed. The system operates in California, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. Bonneville is responsible for maintaining a network of 15,000 miles of electric transmission lines and 350 substations in a region of diverse vegetation. This vegetation can interfere with electric power flow, pose safety problems for Bonneville personnel and the public, and interfere with the ability to maintain these facilities. Bonneville wished to keep vegetation away from its electric facilities, increase its program efficiency and consistency, review herbicide use, which is under increased public scrutiny, and maximize the range of tools available while minimizing environmental impacts through integrated vegetation management. In addition to a No Action Alternative, this draft EIS addresses alternatives for rights-of-way, electric yards, and non- electric facilities. Four vegetation control methods are analyzed, namely, manual, mechanical, herbicidal, and biological. Also evaluated are the active ingredients for 24 herbicides and four herbicide application techniques (spot, localized, broadcast, and aerial). For rights-of-way, three sets of alternatives are considered, namely, alternative management approaches (time-drives versus establishment of low-growing plant communities, alternative method packages and, for herbicides, alternative vegetation selections (noxious weeds, deciduous plants, or any vegetation). For electric yards, one herbicide use alternative is considered. For non-electric facilities, two method package alternatives are considered. For rights-of-way, the environmentally preferred alternative(s) would use manual, mechanical, and biological control methods as well as spot and localized herbicide applications for noxious and deciduous plant species; the Bonneville preferred alternative(s) would add broadcast and aerial herbicide applications and would use herbicides on any vegetation. The favored management approach would be to foster low-growing plant communities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plant control system would improve safety and operation of the Bonneville transmission network and ease maintenance of and repairs to the system. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The plant control activities would limit the growth of plants within and around the affected facilities, an adverse impact even though this would represent the goal of the program. The diversity of successional changes in vegetation would be unavoidably diminished. The presence of human managing vegetation would disturb wildlife. The vehicle traffic associated with mechanical clearing of vegetation could cause soil compaction. The use of herbicides would introduce toxins into the environment, if only on a short-term basis.

AN - 36414331; 7535 AB - PURPOSE: The designation of a park-wide system of trails for Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area (DWGNRA) of New Jersey and Pennsylvania is proposed. The DWGNRA, which encompasses 67,000 acres of woodlands, farms, mountains, creeks, and the Delaware River, is the largest natural area in the National Park System between Virginia and Maine and is among the ten most visited in the entire national system. Much of the visitation is from the nearby, rapidly expanding New York, northern New Jersey, and Philadelphia metropolitan areas. Visitation is growing at a steady rate. The DWGNRA lacks a designated trail system. Informally created paths now constitute the area's trail system. The 1987 general management plan outlined a potential system for trail development, but this system is no longer adequate to address the policy an operational issues now facing park managers. Recent concerns about potential impacts on habitat areas for federally listed species and user conflicts and dissatisfaction with the limited number of trails and facilities has prompted park management to recognize the need for a comprehensive trails plan that would address long-term needs of visitors while protecting resources. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), which would perpetuate the current trail system, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative B) would designate a system based on four networks, namely, the Appalachian, Country Road, Gap View, and River Valley networks. Visitor experience and natural features would organize each of these networks with connections to each other network and other trail opportunities outside the park. Alternative C would provide a series of smaller, independent networks clustered around significant park resources. Both action alternatives would include the development of a coordinated trail signage system and improvements to access and visitor facilities. The estimated development and additional annual operating costs for the preferred alternative are $14.6 million and $232,700, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would increase the number of trails in the park, provide more mileage for various uses, and improve visitor facilities and interpretive experiences. Linkages between trails inside the park and activities outside the park boundaries would be encouraged. The alternative would double the amount of present park trail miles and provide greater opportunities for biking, cross-country skiing, and equestrian activities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activities would result in short- and long-term disturbance and vegetation loss and the loss of associated wildlife habitat. Human activities within the area could alter wildlife distribution. Archaeological sites could be disturbed during development activities. The process of resolving conflicts among different users through restrictions placed on particular uses could adversely affect some users. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 89-158.

Preparation date: August 9, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR RED ROCK CANYON NATIONAL CONSERVATION AREA (AN AMENDMENT TO THE LAS VEGAS RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN), CLARK COUNTY, NEVADA. AN - 36409525; 7536 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan (GMP) for the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area (RRCNCA), located in southeastern Nevada, is proposed. For more than 30 years, Las Vegas residents and visitors have valued the Red Rock Canyon area for its scenery and recreational opportunities. In 1968, the Bureau of Land Management designated 62,000 acres at the Red Rock Canyon Recreation Lands and began providing visitor amenities. As the rapid growth of the Las Vegas area over the next 20 years increased both recreational use in Red Rock Canyon and the awareness of the potential impacts of this growth on sensitive natural resources, public support grew for a designation which would be more encompassing, eliminate future land disposal or minerals development, and provide for more effective control of recreationists. In 1990, Congress designated 83,100 acres as RRCNCA. Congressional acts in 1994 and 1998 enlarged the RRCNCA to 196,000 acres. Congressional action has mandated decisions with respect to the following planning issues: 1) an interpretation plan for a continuing program of interpretation and public education about the resources and values of the area; 2) a proposal for administrative and public facilities to be developed, expanded, or improved for the conservation area; 3) a cultural resources management plan; 4) a wildlife resources management plan; and 5) a recreation management plan. Planning issues developed during scoping include those related to preservation of biodiversity, protection of riparian areas, management of wild horses and burros, management of cultural and paleontological resources, opportunity settings and recreational opportunities to be offered to visitors, management of road and trail systems, provision of camping facilities, management of technical rock climbing and target shooting, management of commercial operations, and provisions for the concerns of Native Americans. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 2), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 3) would focus on actions enhancing biodiversity, incorporating an emphasis on certain threatened and endangered species, with some reduction in the miles of road remaining open and moderate enhancement of the trail network. Existing developed waters would be available to wild horses and burros and riparian areas would be protected through fencing, but new water developments would not be implemented unless approved in a future herd management plan and subsequent GMP amendment. Aggressive fire suppression in some areas combined with use of prescribed fire in other would be the chief means of vegetation management. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Plan implementation would protect the sensitive and unique wildlife and resources of the RRCNCA, while allowing for appropriate recreational and interpretive uses of the area. The closure of 88.4 miles of dirt roads would result in revegetation of 165.9 acres. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Burro viewing would not be as readily available along State Route 159 as fewer burros would roam in this area. Wild horses and burros would continue to use two springs in the Pine Creek Wilderness Study Area, necessitating the use of protective fencing that would mar the naturalness of the affected area.

AN - 36411285; 7528 AB - PURPOSE: The development and operation of the Fallon Range Training Complex (FRTC) at Naval Air Station (NAS) Fallon, located in west-central Nevada, is proposed. NAS Fallon lies in the Lahontan Valley, approximately 70 miles east of Reno and six miles southeast of the city of Fallon. NAS Fallon administers 7,872 acres of withdrawn an acquired land associated with the air station and 106,759 acres of land associated with the FRTC. THE FRTC includes four geographically separate training ranges, three range air surveillance system sites, a tracking system, a electronic warfare (EW) threat simulation system, and a special use airspace. The affected jurisdictions include Churchill, Eureka, Lander, Mineral, Nye, and Washoe counties. The Naval Strike and Air Warfare Center (NSAWC) at NAS Fallon has evaluated the existing NAS Fallon training assets. The NSAWC has compared those assets against Navy tactical aviation training objectives to determine changes necessary at the FRTC to meet mandated training requirements. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would involve the development of four fixed EW sites, four 16-foot tracking instrumentation subsystem (TIS) sites, and live mortar ranges and helicopter ordnance, and gunnery target training ranges. Fiber optic cables would be run from NAS Fallon to the two training ranges. The Navy would perform close air support training, including laser spotting, in Dixie Valley, as well as Hellfire missile training and high altitude weapons delivery training at the B-17 and B-20 training ranges. Adjustments to special use airspace would be made to change the use of times of the Reno Military Operations Area and to allow for high altitude weapons delivery training; new restricted airspace would be developed over existing restricted airspace to 35,000 feet above mean sea level. Alternatives to the proposed action would reduce the size and/or number of EW sites. No preferred alternative has yet been identified. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The FRTC would meet training needs for Navy pilots and support personnel, helping to ensure the nation's defense readiness. Development of additional TIS sites would increase the Navy's ability to track aircraft in areas that currently have poor coverage and provide better pilot accountability. By increasing the altitudes of existing restricted areas without increasing the number of operations would probably reduce impacts to Native American religious activities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, approximately 76 acres of public land would be disturbed at the EW and TIS sites, and 26 acres would be closed to public access due to EW site operations. Land use impacts would be slightly less under the alternatives to the proposed action. Six unevaluated cultural resource sites, two sites eligible for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places, and on National Register Historic District would be affected.

In a joint effort between the Bureau of Reclamation, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology, a water treatment design spreadsheet program has been developed to address this problem. This Excel spreadsheet estimates the design parameters needed to drive the EPA cost estimates, then updates cost information for several water treatment processes to current dollars. The program calculates dosage rates and cost estimates for the following water purification processes: pH adjustment with sulfuric acid; Disinfection with chlorine, chloramine, and ozone; Coagulation /Flocculation with alum, ferric sulfate, and lime/soda ash using upflow solids contact clarifiers; Filtration enhancement with polymer feed; Filtration with granular activated carbon, and granular media; Microfiltration as pretreatment to remove particulate materials; Demineralization with ion exchange, electrodialysis, and reverse osmosis; and Pumping: raw water, backwash, and finished water pumping.

AN - 36422742; 7526 AB - PURPOSE: The extension of gold mining operations at the Pipeline Mine within the Gold Acres Mining District in Lander County, Nevada is proposed. The project area lies 30 miles southeast of Battle Mountain. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the applicant's proposed action, Cortez Gold Mines, Inc. (GCM) would develop the South Pipeline ore deposit and construct associated facilities to continue to extract gold from the mined ore within the project area. GCM would conduct certain activities at the approved Cortez Facilities without substantial modification to those facilities. In addition, the applicant's proposal would include a right-of-way (ROW) application for construction of a water pipeline and plans to modify a portion of the Gold Acres Facilities. The principal components of the proposal would include: expansion of the Pipeline open pit, which would eventually include the South Pipeline open pit; a new heap leach facility; expansion of the existing Pipeline waste rock dump and tailings facility; extension of process solution pipelines from the South Pipeline leach facility to other process facilities within the project area; new ore and sub-grade ore and growth media stockpiles; increasing of the Pipeline mill throughput; development of new groundwater extraction wells; rerouting of a portion of Cortez Mine Road; abandonment of a portion of the ROW for the Gold Acres haul road; establishment of ROW for a pipeline to deliver water to Dean Ranch; and delivery of up to 6,000 gallons per minute (gpm) to the adjacent Dean Ranch via the ROW for consumption on private land. The rate of groundwater pumping and disposal would be no greater than 34,500 gpm. The applicant's proposal would not alter CGM's current average mining rate of 150,000 tons per day (tpd); the maximum rate would be 250,000 tpd. An estimated 150 million tons of ore would be mined from the South Pipeline open pit, resulting in 450 million tons of waste rock. Most of the waste rock (250 million tons) would be hauled to a mined-out portion of the South Pipeline open pit. The project would also include dewatering and reclamation provisions. The mine life would extend eight years, with an additional two years for further ore processing and site closure. The schedule could change if reserves were found to be greater than expected or economic conditions change. A Pipeline Backfill Alternative, also under consideration, would dispose of waste rock into the Pipeline open pit rather than the South Pipeline waste rock dump. This second action alternative would involve alternation of the mining sequence and backfilling provisions. The applicant's proposal has been identified as the preferred alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The applicant's proposal would extend the operational life of CGM's mining and processing operations by eight years and continue to employ 450 to 500 workers during that period. Approximately 4.58 million ounces of gold and minor amounts of silver would be generated. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The applicant's proposal would disturb 4,450 acres of surface in addition to that already disturbed, resulting in an overall disturbed area of 7,616 acres of vegetation and associated wildlife habitat. The implementation of the Pipeline Backfill Alternative would disturb 3,841 acres of surface in addition to that already disturbed. The mining and related activities would result in the restriction of future mineral resource extraction due to the facility siting, the dewatering of streams and springs and the resultant loss of vegetation including special status species, the degradation of groundwater quality, the introduction of noxious weeds to disturbed areas, and the accidental spills of hazardous materials which would pose a hazard to human populations in the area. The blasting activities would result in significant noise emissions. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.).

AN - 36422295; 7524 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Tusayan Ranger District in the Kaibab National Forest, located in northern Arizona, is proposed. Tusayan is a tourist-oriented community located one mile south of the entrance to Grand Canyon National Park (GCNP), an area dominated by motels, restaurants, gift shops, campgrounds, and grocery stores. Tusayan has continued to add visitor lodging, retail, and food and beverage services on privately-owned land to support the expanding tourist market. Since 1985, visitation of the Grand Canyon has increased by six percent annually, and most of that increase has occurred along the South Rim. Nearly all visitors to the South Rim pass through Tusayan on their way to or from the park. The visitor and transportation facilities along the South Rim have reached or exceeded their capacity. The Grand Canyon Improvement Association (GCIA), a group of land and business owners in Tusayan, has expressed interest in expanding the community beyond its current 144 acres. Such an expansion would require the use of national forest system (NFS) lands, which could be made available under a special-use permit. Five alternatives for improving transportation, housing, community facilities, and visitor services outside of park boundaries, and addressing whether NFS lands should be used for these purposes were considered in the 1997 draft EIS, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A). Alternative B and Alternative C would include land exchanges proposed by Canyon Forest Village (CFV) involving private acquisition of NFS lands directly north of Tusayan in exchange for federal acquisition of 12 private inholdings within the Tusayan Range District. Under Alternative D, proposed by GCIA in the draft EIS, a local government entity would purchase NFS land for resident housing and community needs; a special use permit would be issued for a transportation staging area. Under Alternative E, the ranger district would provide land for Park Service employee housing and a transportation staging area would be constructed north of Tusayan. A supplemental draft EIS of 1998 considered three new alternative proposals (Alternative F, Alternative G, and Alternative H), all involving issuance of a special use permit and implementation of a land exchange, and identified a preferred alternative (Alternative G) involving a scaled-down land exchange, allowing for the acquisition of private inholdings, reducing the level of commercial development proposed in previous land exchange alternatives, providing improved land base or building space for community facilities for residents of the Grand Canyon/Tusayan area, and allowing for a transit center to be built independently of other aspects of the alternative. Although not a primary concern, this alternative would incorporate sustainable design elements where economically feasible and meet or exceed standards established in the Tusayan Area Plan. Under Alternative G, CFV would acquire 270 acres of NFS land, north of Tusayan and west of State Highway 64, to construct a gateway community to GCNP in order to provide visitor services and facilities outside GCNP. This final EIS assesses all alternatives to date, but identifies no preferred alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The development of a mass transit system and additional housing would help address capacity problems. The developments would alleviate pressure on the park caused by increased visitor demand, provide housing for area employees, provide an improved land base for community facilities and an opportunity for the development of community facilities to serve local residents, and allow for the development of INSIGHT, an experiential, educational and interpretive center, thereby expanding the educational and interpretive experience of GCNP visitors. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The potential adverse impacts would include the development on tribal lands, increased demands for water, increased competition with existing tourist- related businesses, the accelerated population growth and demand for public services, and the damage to archaeological sites, cultural properties, and wildlife habitat.

Preparation date: July 29, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SPRUCE CREEK ACCESS, DENALI NATIONAL PARK AND PRESERVE, DENALI BOROUGH, ALASKA. AN - 36423816; 7520 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a permit to allow the development of access to a 20-acre inholding along Spruce Creek in the Kantishna Hills of Denali National Park and Preserve, located in south-central Alaska, is proposed. The owners of Spruce Creek Parcel Number 4 have applied for access to their property to construct and operate a remote lodge with 20 double-occupancy cabins. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the applicants' proposal (the Moose Creek Alternative), access would be provided via a ten-mile improved road over an existing mining access route, where practical, from the Denali Park Road at mile 88 to the applicants' parcel. A spur road, constituting an extension to the Glen Creek landing strip, would be included to provide service for alternative air access. The 9.7-mile North Bench Alternative would follow the Moose Creek route over its first three miles, crossing Moose Creek with a new bridge and traverse benches north of Moose Creek to the applicant's parcel. The alternative would cross Rainy, Dry, and Glen creeks once each with a reinforced ford. Approximately five miles of new road and an extension of the Glen Creek landing strip would be constructed. The 12-mile Skyline Drive Alternative would follow a ridge-top mining access route from mile 91 of the Denali Park Road to Glenn Creek and cross a bench to Spruce Creek. The route would include 10 miles of existing mining access routes and two miles of new road. The existing Kantishna Airstrip would be used as necessary. The Air- Access-Only Alternative would require the construction of a 2,500-foot airstrip adjacent to the applicants parcel along with a short spur road. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The provision of access to the parcel would allow the applicants to construct and operate a viable resort on their property, meeting legal requirements and providing a recreational and economic resource in the area. The state and local economies would benefit from the $3.0 million project and associated employment. The lodge would generate $1.8 million in local sales, and the Denali bed tax would provide $120,000 to the Denali Borough. The improved access up the Moose Creek valley would benefit subsistence users. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The Moose Creek Alternative would cross Moose Creek, Spruce Creek, and other streams a total of 30 times via fords, while the North Bench Alternative and Skyline Drive Alternative would result in one and 24 stream crossings, respectively. Depending on the action alternative chosen, the project would require 12,400 to 18,950 cubic yards of gravel. Vehicles and/or aircraft using the access facilities would increase noise levels significantly, in some cases to over 100 decibels. The facilities would displace 3.8 to 30.6 acres of vegetation and up to 17.1 acres of wetlands. Moose and black bear habitat would be adversely affected, as would breeding habitat for birds. The opportunity to restore the area to pre-mining condition would be lost under any road access alternative.

Preparation date: July 27, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GRAND STAIRCASE-ESCALANTE NATIONAL MONUMENT, GARFIELD AND KANE COUNTIES, UTAH. AN - 36420640; 7516 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan for the Grand Staircase- Escalante National Monument, located in southern Utah, is proposed. The 1.87- million-acre monument was created to protect a spectacular array of scientific, historic, biological, geological, paleontological, and archaeological resources. Issues addressed include those related to the protection of resources, research, the integration of monument and community planning, human activities and uses, monument facility requirements and location, transportation and access management, and water availability and use. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this final EIS. The proposed plan, a modification of the preferred alternative outlined in the draft EIS (Alternative B), would emphasize the preservation of the monument as an unspoiled natural area, while recognizing its value as a scientific resource for a variety of research activities. The frontier character of the land would be maintained both as a safeguard for monument resources and as an inspiration to visitors. Visitor services would be located primarily in the communities outside the monument, which would help to provide economic opportunities for the communities and provide protection for monument resources. The alternative includes a strong science program, to be directed by the Bureau of Land management, focused on improving understanding and preserving the resources of the monument while assisting in the development of improved land management practices. Recreational use of the monument would be managed, in part, by the level of facilities provided, by restrictions on access, and by group size limits, an approach that would be guided by a zoning system designed to maintain the undeveloped nature of monument lands. The science program would include a public education program to increase public understanding of science, the land, and its history. The program would emphasize continued collaboration and employ a science advisory council to advise on the interaction of science, research, and management. Specific management provisions would address vegetation manipulation, wild and scenic river designation, non-surface-disturbing research, surface-disturbing research, parking and trailhead facilities, signing, interpretive sites and picnic areas, toilets, camping and campfires, group size, allocation of land and water resources, competitive and special events, outfitter and guide operations, communication sites and utility rights- of-way, filming, access routes, and trail construction. POSITIVE IMPACTS: By protecting the undeveloped and unspoiled nature of the monument while minimizing further intrusions, the visitor experience would be enhanced and scientific opportunities would be preserved for future generations. Additional activities resulting from the preferred management plan would employ 248 workers, with annual earnings of $6.6 million in the year 2012. The net annual government revenues would reach $236,000 in the same year. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The closure of the monument to cross-country motorized and mechanized uses would impede some human activities within the boundaries. A very small extent of acreage could be disturbed by reasonably foreseeable actions, potentially adversely affecting paleontological, archaeological, and historic resources as well as vegetation, cryptobiotic soils, and wildlife habitat; any impacts to these resources would be slight and would be mitigated. The expected increases in visitation would result in damage to archaeological and historic resources. Animal damage control activities would adversely affect some research related to wildlife populations and natural systems.

AN - 36414703; 7503 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a 20-year management plan for Glacier National Park, located in northwestern Montana, is proposed. The 1.01-million-acre tract constitutes a national park, and international peace park, a world heritage site, and a biosphere reserve. The overall management philosophy is to guide park activities to retain its classic western national park character. Each year the park attracts almost 2.0 million visitors. Visitor use and the resource protection decision are to perpetuate this tradition. Large portions of the park are to be managed for their wild character and for the integrity of Glacier's unique natural heritage, while traditional visitor use services and facilities are to remain. Geographic areas and management zones provide the foundation for this strategy. Six geographic areas, each with its own management philosophy, are described in this final EIS. The EIS delineates management zones for each area in which various levels of development and types of activities would be permitted. During the planning process, publicly identified desires with respect to the park included the continuation of current access and visitor uses, the management of the park to protect resources while allowing visitor use, the continuation of wilderness status for the park's backcountry area, the preservation of wildlife habitat, and the coordination of management with adjacent landowners to protect resources and emphasize retention of facilities within the park. Critical issues identified during scoping include those related to visitor use of the 52-mile Going-to-the-Sun Road, the preservation of the Going-to-the-Sun Road, the preservation of the historic hotels and visitor services, scenic air tours, personal watercraft, winter use, Divide Creek flooding, and the west side discovery center and museum. Topics considered in addressing impacts of the alternatives include those related to water resources; scenic resources; air quality; soils; vegetation, including state-listed rare plant species; wildlife, including federally-listed threatened and endangered species; aquatic resources, including federally-listed threatened and endangered species and state-listed rare species; natural sound; biological diversity; cultural resources, including archaeological resources, properties listed on the National Register of Historic Places, national historic landmarks, national historic districts, and other sites of cultural significance; the rights of the Blackfeet and the Confederated Salish-Kootenai American Indian Tribes; regional and local economies; local and national visitors; private land holding inside the park's boundary; energy consumption; and environmental justice with respect to minority populations. A variety of management alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered for each issue. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The implementation of the management plan would ensure the preservation and appropriate use of park resources for the next 20 years. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: None.

AN - 36409343; 7495 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Vancouver National Historic Reserve, located in southwestern Washington, is proposed. Vancouver and the area designated as the reserve have played a central role in significant events in the history of the West and the Pacific Northwest. This influence extended from the Indian nations long established by the time of Lewis and Clark, through the fur and trade monopoly of the British Empire in the Oregon Territory, to the U.S. Army's continuing presence beginning in 1849. The 366-acre reserve contains the Fort Vancouver Historic Site, Vancouver Barracks, Officers Row, Pearson Field, the Water Resources Education Center, a marine park, and portions of the Columbia River waterfront. The reserve will be managed by a partnership involving the National Park Service, the Department of the Army, the Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative C), are considered in this draft EIS. The goals of the preferred alternative (Alternative A) would be the preservation of historic structures, physical assets, and cultural landscapes; education and interpretation of the significance and history of the area for public benefit; and the public use of and accessibility to the reserve. These overlapping goals would be reached through public and private partnerships and funding to ensure economic balance and sustainability for all new endeavors. In addition to the restoration of structures and landscapes, the plan would provide for a visitors' center, interpretative facilities throughout the site, and access, circulation, and parking facilities. Alternative B would involve the restoration of more historic structures and landscapes than under Alternative A. The estimated total development cost are $38.0 million to $61.5 million. The estimated Barracks renovation costs are $26.6 to $48.7 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The restoration and interpretation of site resources would provide the public with insights into the historic role of the area in the pre-Colonial, Colonial, and post-Colonial history of the region and the nation. The plan would complement the renovation of downtown Vancouver and enhance the retail and service economy of the city, particularly the tourist economy. Property tax valuations would increase, thereby increasing the local tax base. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Finding tenants for the Vancouver Barracks buildings who would be compatible with its historic character could prove difficult. Achieving consensus among partners could prove difficult due to the complexity of issues involved, the limited availability of funding, and the differing missions of the partners. Some traffic patterns in the vicinity of the reserve would be altered, and local traffic volumes could increase. Traffic congestion, noise, and demand for parking could adversely affect nearby tenants of Officers Row and local neighborhoods.

Preparation date: July 14, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CENTRAL VALLEY IMPROVEMENT ACT OF 1992 IMPLEMENTATION, CENTRAL VALLEY; ALAMEDA, CONTRA COSTA, SAN BENITO, SANTA CLARA, AND TRINITY COUNTIES, CALIFORNIA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF NOVEMBER 1997). AN - 16339862; 7489 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of the Central Valley Project Improvement Act of 1992 (CVPIA), located in central California, is proposed. The CVPIA was passed in order to protect and enhance fish and wildlife resources in the Central Valley and Trinity River basins (including the Trinity, Sacramento, American, Stanislaus, and San Joaquin rivers), to address impacts of water resource projects on fish and wildlife, to improve the operational flexibility of these projects and water conservation, and to protect the San Francisco Bay and Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Estuary. Prior to the development of water resources in California, anadromous fish were attracted upstream during storm events from fall through the spring. The storm flows also provided flushing flows to move fish downstream from the upper reaches of the streams where spawning occurred. The rain and snow also repelled saltwater intrusion in the delta from the San Francisco Bay. The Central Valley projects modified the flow patterns by shifting peak river flows to the summer months and altering the temperatures of some stream reaches. Fish and wildlife were also adversely affected by the construction of levees along many of the rivers and the delta. The levees eliminated many wetland and shallow water zones where spawning and rearing occurred. Twenty alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, were considered in the programmatic draft EIS of November 1997. All of the action alternatives would have certain core programs in common: renewing all Central Valley Project service, water rights, and exchange contracts; implementing water measurement; upgrading Tracy and Contra Costa pumping plants fish protection facilities; constructing a Shasta temperature control device; completing improvements to the Coleman National Fish Hatchery; modifying irrigation diversion facilities for fish protection; implementing seasonal field flooding; and purchasing 30,000 acres of retired land. The alternatives would differ in their methods of habitat restoration, water pricing, Red Bluff Diversion Dam modification, delta fish barrier construction, water transfer, and retired land re-vegetation. This draft supplement to the draft programmatic EIS provides additional information in response to a general group of comments received on the draft programmatic EIS. These comments addressed an inconsistency discovered in the Project Simulation Model (PROSIM) hydrology shortly before the draft programmatic EIS was completed. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would define operational criteria, management, and structural priorities for the Central Valley Project throughout the next water contracting cycle. The proposal would comply with the mandate contained in the CVPIA for the protection of fish and wildlife habitat in the Central Valley and the achievement of a reasonable balance among competing demands for the region's water supply. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Additional commitments of water to delta outflow for fishery use would be lost for irrigation and other freshwater uses south of the delta. Fish mortality in the American, Merced, and Sacramento rivers would increase because of an increase in water temperature. Flatwater recreation at Lake Red Bluff would be eliminated.

AN - 16353374; 7486 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for 291,168 acres of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) public land surface and 1.4 million acres of subsurface federal mineral estate within the Wyoming portion of the Newcastle Resource Area, located in northeastern Wyoming, is proposed. This area includes all public lands in Crook, Niobrara, and Weston counties. Focal issues identified in the scoping process include the retention or disposal of public lands, surface disturbance, and special management areas designations. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative, which was developed by combining parts of Alternative A, Alternative B, and Alternative C, the federal mineral estate would be open to minerals sale and development, subject to appropriate restrictions. Oil and gas parcels would be leased under current Wyoming standard stipulations and mitigation guidelines. The coal classifications on about 194,500 acres of federal coal lands would be terminated. The collection of paleontological resources would be managed through a permit system, although individuals would be allowed to collect limited quantities of fossils and petrified wood for personal use. No development would be allowed in close proximity to historic sites, recreation areas, floodplains, wetlands, and other sensitive areas. Wildlife habitat would be managed to promote biodiversity and to provide a prey base for predatory species; prairie dog control would not be permitted unless a prairie dog town has created substantial habitat damage. Approximately 11,935 acres of forest land would be managed by implementing sound silvicultural practices that include two- or three-cut shelterwood-harvest, commercial, and pre-commercial thinnings; allowable harvesting levels would be set at 4.7 million board feet of timber per decade. Authorized grazing on managed lands would not exceed 48,818 animal unit months. Motorized vehicle use would be restricted to roads and designated trails. This draft EIS revises and replaces a draft EIS issued in September 1993; the EIS is being reissued because some government agencies had provided comments on the draft EIS after the comment period had ended. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, natural resources would be protected while permitting reasonable levels of economic development to take place; this would reflect policy and management changes since the predecessor plan was implemented in 1981. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some land designations and management strategies would conflict with existing or proposed land uses. Restrictions placed on development, particularly within areas of critical environmental concern, could result in the loss of opportunities to develop mineral resources.

AN - 16348244; 7484 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of natural gas extraction and pipeline projects in two separate areas, located southwest of the city of Price in east-central Utah, is proposed. The permits for extraction are being sought by Anadarko Petroleum Corporation, Chandler and Associates, Inc., and Texaco Exploration and Production, Inc. The pipeline would be constructed by Questar Pipeline Company. The project area encompasses 111,520 acres. The primary targeted reservoir would be coal bed methane gas from the Ferron sandstone member of the Mancos formation. Major issues addressed include those related to geology and minerals, water resources, air quality, soils, vegetation and riparian land and wetland, reclamation, wildlife habitat, threatened and endangered species, livestock management, cultural resources, land use, recreational and visual resources, noise, socioeconomics, health and safety, and hazardous materials and waste. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 3), are considered in this final EIS. Under the applicants' proposed action (Alternative 1), the developments would include the drilling of natural gas wells, the construction of roads and gathering pipelines for natural gas and produced water, and the drilling of wells for the disposal of produced water. It would consist of the development of 353 natural gas wells, various ancillary facilities, and the pipeline. Sixty-five wells would be developed in the 18,350-acre North Area and 222 wells would be developed in the 93,170-acre South Area. A total of 68 wells have already been drilled. The wells would be developed on a 160-acre well density pattern. Ancillary facilities would include access roads, pipelines for gathering gas and producing water, electrical utilities, central production facilities for treating and compressing gas and disposing of produced water, and pipelines for delivering gas under high pressure to the transmission pipeline. The transmission pipeline would be 20 inches in diameter and almost 27 miles in length. The construction activities would extend five years beginning in 1999, and the production activities would continue for 20 years. The preferred alternative (Alternative 2), developed in response to issues raised during the public and agency scoping process, would incorporate the same construction and operational components as Alternative 1, but would include Environmental Protection Measures applied to the proposed activities on federal lands; these measures could require the relocation of well pads, roads, and/or ancillary facilities, restrict the development during certain seasons, and/or require special construction, operational, and reclamation methods. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would produce and distribute natural gas in an environmentally safe and efficient manner to serve regional needs. The project activities would support local employment and otherwise enhance the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the disposal of produced water could adversely affect water quality of regional aquifers, and sedimentation and salinity within the produced water could adversely affect surface water quality. A total of 160 wells and portions of access road would lie within critical soil areas. The construction activities would disturb 1,472 acres of vegetation and result in long-term losses on 679 acres. The soil disturbance would increase potential for infestation by noxious weeds. The project would result in the loss of 9.3 acres of riparian communities. A total of 49 wells would be constructed within elk winter range and 163 wells would be constructed within mule deer winter range. Indirect disturbances would adversely affect 11,011 acres of elk winter range and 11,082 acres of mule deer winter range. Cultural resource sites would occur within the area affected by project activities, and 53 wells would be constructed within one mile of residential structures, resulting in exposure of affected residents to substantially increased noise levels. The grazing capacity on land administered by the Bureau of Land Management would be reduced by 70 animal unit months. The construction activities and structures would degrade visual and other recreational aspects of the area.

AN - 62317667; ED445850 AB - As part of Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) funding, Tribal Priority Allocations (TPA) are the principal source of funds for tribal governments and agency offices at the reservation level. According to their unique needs and circumstances, tribes may prioritize funding among eight general categories: government, human services, education, public safety, community development, resources management, trust services, and general administration. In 1997, Congress directed the BIA to examine options on other methods of distributing TPA funds based on identified tribal need. This report summarizes findings of a BIA/tribal workgroup on this issue. Chapter 1 describes background issues: wide variations among Indian tribes and lands that impede development of one funding formula; American Indians' severely disadvantaged status; Federal trust responsibilities to Indians; and the right of tribal governments to have their priorities respected. Chapter 2 recounts the historical and legal basis for federal services to tribes. Chapter 3 discusses measures of tribal need and finds that current funding meets only one third of identified needs. Chapter 4 covers measures of tribal revenue, noting that revenue must be used not only for current operations but also to repair 150 years of neglect. Chapter 5 presents results of tribal consultation. There is no support for reallocation of resources, and given that fewer than 10 percent of tribes have enough revenue to provide a full range of services to their citizens, reallocation of base funds is not cost effective. Chapter 6 presents conclusions: base funding to tribes should not be redistributed; the same principles for determining state and local eligibility for federal funds should be applied to tribes; and an appeal process must be established for tribes affected by any change in TPA policies.

AN - 36418135; 7473 AB - PURPOSE: The development of a power system, to be known as the Diamond Fork System, as a component of interrelated systems in the Central Utah Project's Bonneville Unit, located in north-central Utah, is proposed. The Diamond Fork System would effect a trans-basin diversion of water from the Uinta Basin of the Upper Colorado River Basin to the Bonneville Basin of the Great Basin. Most of the system facilities would lie within Utah County, but a small portion at the upper end of the project's structures would be in Wasatch County. The system would be constructed in the Diamond Fork and Sixth Water drainages in the Uinta National Forest of the Wasatch Mountain range. Sixth Water Creek is a tributary of Diamond Fork Creek, which is a tributary of the Spanish Fork River. The trans- basin diversion would provide water for the Municipal and Industrial System of the Bonneville Unit and for supplemental irrigation service in the Spanish Fork area of south Utah County. Water would also be provided for the Irrigation and Drainage System of the Bonneville Unit. The trans-basin diversion would descend from the enlarged Strawberry Reservoir in the Uinta Basin to the confluence of Diamond Fork and the Spanish Fork River in the Bonneville Basin through a system of tunnels, pipelines, and a powerplant. The system would facilitate an annual average trans-basin diversion of 101,900 acre-feet of Bonneville Unit water and 61,500 acre-feet of Strawberry Valley Project water from the Uinta Basin to the Bonneville Basin. The proposed action and a No Action Alternative are considered in this second supplement to the final EIS of October 1984. Features required to complete the construction of the Diamond Fork System are addressed. The system would be completed by constructing a series of tunnels and pipelines to convey water through the mountainous terrain of Diamond Fork Canyon and various Diamond Fork drainage tributary canyons in the Uinta National Forest. The construction would include the Sixth Water Connection to the Tanner Ridge Tunnel, the Tanner Ridge Tunnel, the Diamond Fork Siphon, the Red Mountain Tunnel, the Red Hollow Pipeline and connection to Diamond Fork Pipeline, the Diamond Fork Creek Outline, the Spanish Fork River Outlet from the Diamond Fork Pipeline, and, if necessary, modifications to the Spanish Fork diversion. These facilities would be sized to convey Strawberry Valley Project water from the Strawberry Reservoir for agricultural use in the Spanish Fork area of southern Utah County, Bonneville Unit water to Utah Lake, and adequate flows to meet minimum stream flow requirements mandated by the Central Utah Project Completion Act. A total of 6.74 miles of 96- to 114-inch conduits would be installed. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The development of water and energy sources through the plan would supply immediate and projected needs for the rapidly growing population along the Wasatch Front. Some project energy would be used to pump water for the Central Utah Project, while the remainder would be marketed for commercial use throughout the Colorado River Storage Project marketing area. In addition to providing water and power, the system would open up recreational and fishing opportunities in the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Summer flows in Diamond Fork Creek would decline. The construction activities would result in temporary disturbance of 2.01 acres of wetland and 53.3 acres of critical winter range for mule deer, moose, and elk, and permanent loss of 0.04 acres of wetland and 3.8 acres of winter range. The operation of the project would adversely affect 9.69 acres of threatened ladies'-tresses and 2,087 individual plants of that species. The project would also adversely affect June suckers, golden eagles, and Leatherside chub. The road closures would cause major access and use problems for recreationists during the construction, and the construction activities would degrade visual aesthetics in the area significantly.

AN - 16348973; 7468 AB - PURPOSE: The extension of existing open-pit phosphate mining operations in the Pocatello Resource Area and Caribou National Forest, located in southeastern Idaho, is proposed. Elemental phosphorus is an established industrial mineral commodity with international markets and demand. Uses include fertilizer, food supplements, chemicals, and other industrial applications. The applicant, FMC Corporation, began mining at Dry Valley Mine in 1992. FMC now proposes to extend mining operations a its Dry Valley Mine, which is located on public and private land approximately 17 miles northeast of Soda Springs, by creating two new open pit mines and constructing three overburden dumps, hall roads, and surface water management facilities including water diversion and containment structures. All areas disturbed by the mine extension project would be reclaimed, except a portion of one pit (Pit D) which would not be backfilled. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative A), the project would include all components of the applicant's proposed action but would require that FMC partially backfill the final mine panel in Pit D. Sufficient backfill would be placed in the final mine panel to fill this panel to an elevation above the pre-mining water table elevation. Partial backfilling of this mine panel would eliminate formation of a pit lake in this portion of Pit D and restore approximately 14 acres of land surface to productive use after reclamation. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The mining of phosphate resources would continue to provide a supply of raw materials for industrial products and bolster the local economy. The preferred alternative would eliminate direct contact by wildlife and livestock with a pit lake. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Selenium and trace metals would be released from overburden, adversely affecting the quality of the shallow alluvial groundwater system associated with Dry Valley Creek and the deeper regional bedrock system surrounding the mine picks. The mining would result in large-scale modification of landforms in the area. The groundwater levels in the vicinity of the pits would drop significantly due to dewatering. The unreclaimed disturbance would include approximately 36 acres of pit walls and haul road. Approximately 37.3 acres of wetland would be displaced, and elevated levels of selenium would adversely affect wetlands receiving runoff from the site and associated wildlife. The access restrictions would adversely affect hunters wishing to use the site.

Preparation date: June 25, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CALFED BAY-DELTA PROGRAM, SAN FRANCISCO BAY/SAN JOAQUIN RIVER BAY-DELTA, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36414808; 7462 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of an ecosystem restoration and water management program for the San Francisco Bay and Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, located in northern California, is proposed. The 738,000-acre program area extends from southern to northern California and includes the lowlands and uplands in the Sacramento and San Joaquin River watersheds; Suisun Bay and Marsh, San Pablo Bay, and the San Francisco Bay watershed; and Tulare Lake, Consumnes River, Mokelumne River, and other rivers and waterways connected to the San Joaquin River. The 738,000-acre Bay-Delta area, which constitutes the largest estuary on the West Coast, consists of a maze of tributaries, sloughs, and islands that provides a haven for plants and wildlife, supporting more than 750 plant and animal species and providing critical resources for the California economy. The economic resources include drinking water for two-thirds of all Californians and irrigation water for over 7.0 million acres of the most productive agricultural land in the world. For decades, the area has been the focus of competing economic, ecological, urban, and agricultural interests, resulting in declining wildlife habitat, the loss of habitat for native plant and animal species, the degradation of the Delta as a reliable source of high-quality water, and a Delta levee system faces with high risk of failure. State and federal agencies signed a framework agreement in June 1994 that provided for increased coordination and communication for environmental protection and water supply dependability. The resulting CALFED program oversees the coordination of federal and state agencies and stakeholders regarding substantive and procedural aspects of water quality standard setting; improved coordination of water supply operations with endangered species protection and water quality standard compliance provisions; and the development of a long-term solution to fish and wildlife conservation, water supply reliability, flood control, and water quality problems. In March 1998, a draft programmatic EIS covering the program was issued. A preferred program alternative has since been identified; hence, this revised draft EIS has been published. The preferred action alternative would include a core program that would address the issues of ecosystem restoration, water use efficiency, water quality, Delta levee and channel integrity, water transfers, watershed management coordination, and a range of storage and conveyance options. The alternative would address water supply and water management, water quality, groundwater use, fisheries and aquatic ecosystems, vegetation and wildlife habitat, agricultural land and water use, agricultural economics, agricultural social issues, urban land use, urban water supply economics, utilities and public services, recreation resources, flood control, hydroelectric power generation, and regional economics. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The program would help to restore a vital wetlands area, lower toxicants in the water system, conserve over three million acre-feet of water by the year 2020, strengthen levees throughout the Delta, reduce drought-induced economic damage by improving flows from one region to another, and improve overall watershed management. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction of storage and conveyance facilities would have an adverse short-term effect on water quality and an adverse long-term effect on fish habitat and migration. The increased water conservation for ecosystem restoration would reduce water availability for agricultural and municipal uses during drought conditions. Air quality would be adversely affected for a short period. Vegetation and wildlife communities would also be adversely affected. Farmland and other agricultural land would be converted, and job losses could occur. The project could include significant adverse visual impacts.

AN - 16344013; 7469 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for 1.3 million acres of public land within the Owyhee Resource Area, located in southwestern Idaho, is proposed. The area encompasses approximately 1.78 million acres of public and private land. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this final EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative E) would emphasize improvement of ecological conditions and protection of most of the sensitive resources in the planning area. The alternative would include a moderate level of range improvement projects and a moderate level of vegetation treatments. More specifically, the plan would target an 85 percent improvement in riparian and fisheries habitats, a 41 percent improvement in early seral vegetation, a 38 percent improvement in mid- seral vegetation, habitat to support 129 to 254 wild horses, forage to provide 112,649 animal unit months (AUMs) of livestock forage after the first five years and 105,899 AUMS after 20 years, a reduction in the number of reservoirs from 127 to 19, a reduction in pipeline miles from 65 to 10, a reduction in the number of fence miles from 290 to 76, brush treatment on 52,500 acres, juniper treatment on 47,500 acres, prescribed burning and seeding on 5,000 acres, the withdrawal of locatable mineral entry on 236,366 acres, the allowance of locatable mineral entry on 1.3 million acres, the closure of fluid mineral entry on 114,047 acres, the allowance of fluid mineral entry on 1.35 million acres, the closure of mineral material entry on 236,317 acres, the allowance of mineral material entry on 1.23 million acres, the allowance of off-highway-vehicle (OHV) use on 1.2 million acres, the closure of 101,994 acres to OHV use, the designation of ten special recreational management areas containing a total of 432,813 acres, the designation of nine river segments extending a total of 163 miles for inclusion in the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System, and the designation of 13 areas containing 167,372 acres as Areas of Critical Environmental Concern or Outstanding Natural Areas. The estimated total cost of investments in rangeland projects and recreational facilities is $2.8 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan implementation would result in significant improvements in soil and water quality as well as riparian areas, forested land, and wildlife and fish habitat in general and would meet vegetation quality targets not currently met and recreational use targets either not met or only partially met. The livestock forage requirements would also be met. Cultural resources would receive additional protection. Economic indicators would improve under the preferred alternative, but not as significantly as under two of the other alternatives. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The prescribed burning and mining operation would have short-term impacts on air quality in local areas and degrade aesthetics in affected viewsheds. The mineral activities would also disturb soils and vegetation supporting wildlife habitat. The development of livestock water projects could result in the degradation of soil resources due to soil compaction and mechanical disturbance of soils. The large-scale no-surface-occupancy restrictions on fluid mineral entry could adversely affect any leasing interest in the southern part of the resource area. In the event of non-wilderness designation of potential study areas, up to 55,400 acres of such lands would experience moderate to substantial losses of wilderness characteristics due primarily to vegetation treatment activities.

AN - 16350249; 7460 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for Gettysburg National Military Park, located in Gettysburg in southern Pennsylvania, is proposed. The park is the site of one of the most significant battles of the Civil War. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), which would include the continuation of the present management plan, are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative B would rehabilitate the park to reinstitute the pattern of open fields and wooded areas present in 1863 in the major battle action area (MBAA) and manage contemporary agricultural uses to protect landscape and historic resources. This alternative would move most park facilities, including the visitor center and cyclorama, to sites outside the MBAA, enabling the rehabilitation of the battle landscape at the existing sites of these facilities. New park facilities, including a visitor center, would provide necessary services with minimum impact to the historic landscape. The proposed action (Alternative C) would incorporate nearly all elements of Alternative B while adding elements to effect the rehabilitation of small-scale landscape elements and structures within the MBAA to portray an historic landscape containing natural and human elements which were significant to the outcome of the battle. Alternative D would incorporate most of the measures of Alternative C while adding elements to effect the rehabilitation of small-scale landscape and human elements across the entirety of the park. In addition, Alternative D would restore original design elements of the commemorative landscape system of monuments, avenues, and monument groups. All action alternatives would rehabilitate the original part of the Soldiers' National Cemetery to a level consistent with the overall concept of each alternative. The estimated total capital expenditure for the proposed plan is $63.8 million. The estimated annual operation and maintenance costs are $1.43 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The restoration alternatives (Alternative B, Alternative C, and Alternative D) would improve central and park-wide interpretation, while placing the events of Gettysburg in the larger context of the Civil War and the Gettysburg Campaign. These alternatives would also significantly expand partnerships with the Borough of Gettysburg and other entities in the area. In addition, the action restoration would incorporate measures to manage visitor uses and transportation, responding to visitors' desires to experience the battlefield while minimizing resource damage. The habitat for species dependent on open space would be increases. The gradual transition to low- or no-till farming and removal of cattle from wetlands would improve soil and water conditions, and actions to limit visitor impact would reduce adverse impacts from soil compaction. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The removal of non-historic vegetation would reduce habitat for some forest-dependent species. The restoration activities would result in short-term soil disturbance. The development of the visitor center would adversely affect 15 to 18 acres of land, including 10 acres of prime farmland and two acres of wetland.

Preparation date: June 18, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR MANAGEMENT OF DESERT TORTOISE HABITAT, LINCOLN COUNTY, NEVADA. AN - 36418387; 7453 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of management goals and actions for 754,600 acres of desert tortoise habitat, located in southern Lincoln County in eastern Nevada, is proposed. Based upon the declining numbers in some areas of its range and regional habitat loss and degradation, the tortoise was listed as a threatened species in 1990. Issues considered during the development of alternative management plans include tortoise habitat, grazing, land tenure and use, recreation uses, mineral entry closures, social and economic resources, and wild horse and burro habitat. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative C), are considered in this final EIS. The proposed action would designate three Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (ACECs), implement management prescriptions for desert tortoise habitat inside and outside the ACECs, ensure Bureau of Land Management participation in U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service environmental education programs, and implement a Fish and Wildlife Service interagency monitoring program. The three ACECs, totaling 212,500 acres, would be designated to protect 83 percent of designated critical habitat within Lincoln County. The management prescriptions, designated to improve desert tortoise habitat, would modify or restrict some multiple uses, including livestock grazing, off-highway vehicle recreation, wild horse and burro management, land use authorizations, and mineral development within the ACECs. The continued consultation with the Fish and Wildlife Service would be conducted regarding any federal action that could affect listed species. Other actions would include those related to the designation of experimental management, vegetation management, the management of special status plant species, the maintenance and enhancement of habitat, land management, rights-of-way management, recreational use management, and fire management. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan implementation would assist in the recovery and delisting of the desert tortoise in the Northeastern Mojave Recovery Unit while minimizing effects on human activities that occur on the affected public lands. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: One sheep and two cattle allotments would be closed and six cattle allotments would be partially closed; a total of 50,600 acres would be closed to grazing use. An additional, 161,900 acres of land not currently used by livestock would be closed to grazing. The removal of wild horse and burro management activities in some areas would adversely affect populations of these animals. Recreational access would be prohibited for off-road vehicle users in the ACECs, preventing access for some potential recreationists. The prohibition of mineral entry would prevent the extraction of minerals or subject extraction to limitations based upon submission of plans of operation requirements.

AN - 36417806; 7454 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land exchange between ASARCO Incorporated and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in relation to exploitation of mineral resources by ASARCO, located in Gila, Mohave, and Pinal counties, Arizona, is proposed. ASARCO proposed to acquire approximately 31 parcels containing 10,976 acres of public lands in Pinal and Gila counties. In exchange, BLM would acquire 18 parcels containing 7,304 acres of land from ARASCO in Pinal and Mohave counties. ASARCO would acquire 8,196 acres of surface and mineral estate and 3,143 acres of federal mineral estate near Kearny as well as 637 acres of mineral estate near Casa Grande. These lands are near or adjacent to ASARCO's mining operations at the Ray Mine and Kearny. In exchange ASARCO would transfer to the BLM 6,980 acres in Mohave County and 320 acres in Pinal County. The offered lands include Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (ACECs) supporting desert tortoise populations, wilderness inholdings or adjacent lands, broadleaf riparian parcels, and upland Sonoran zones. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternatives (ASARCO's proposed action), ASARCO would acquire lands including 18 parcels in the Ray Complex, five parcels in the Copper Butte/Buckeye area, five parcels in the Chilito/Hayden area, and three parcels in the Casa Grande area. The lands to be transferred to the BLM would include the Gila River Parcel at Cochran in Pinal County and four parcels in Mohave County, namely the Sacramento Valley, Knisely Ranch, McCracken Mountains, and Tomlin parcels. ASARCO intends use Battle Axe Road to access mineral resources in the acquired parcels, though two alternative access routes are considered. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The lands to be acquired by the BLM include areas of high-resource value. These lands include 8,842 acres of upland plant communities, 152 acres of riparian plant communities, five surface water rights, 0.5 mile of the Big Sandy River and one mile of the Gila River, two springs, two stockponds, 7,300 acres of grazing land, and 11 archaeological sites. The lands acquired by the BLM would include habitat for ten special status species, including 7,144 acres of Category I and II desert tortoise habitat. Habitat for the endangered bald eagle, American peregrine falcon, and southwestern willow flycatcher would also be placed in public ownership. The lands acquired by the BLM would also include areas in or adjacent to the Mount Tipton and Warm Springs Wilderness Areas and the Gila River Riparian, Big Sandy Herd, and McCracken Desert Tortoise ACECs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The acquisition of the lands to be transferred to ASARCO could adversely affect 10,891 acres of upland plant communities, 90 acres of riparian plant communities, 7,258 acres of Category II and III desert tortoise habitat, 13 springs and three stockponds, seven water rights, 8,196 acres within seven grazing allotments providing 918 animal unit months of livestock forage, and 80 cultural resource sites. The land transfers would result in a net annual tax income loss to Mohave and Pinal counties of $15,700 and $3,900, respectively; these losses would be offset by payments to the counties.

AN - 36409171; 7448 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Booker T. Washington National Monument, located in southwestern central Virginia, is proposed. The park comprises 223.92 acres located in the rolling hills of the Virginia Piedmont, 22 miles south of Roanoke. The park contains a visitor center, administrative offices located within a former school building, an 1890s tobacco barn, reconstructed plantation outbuildings, two marked archaeological sites, three small cemeteries, and two walking trails that loop through the cabin area as well as meadows and woodlands. The existing general management plan, which dates to 1980, does not establish a clear management directive for the future of the park. The 20th-century replicas include a slave cabin, a smokehouse, a blacksmith shop, a privy, a hog pen, a duck lot, and a chicken house. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed alternative (Alternative C) would envision the park as a progressive educational center that would use the site's cultural and natural resources to encourage awareness of Washington's life and work as well as the broader issues of American race relations. A 15-acre boundary adjustment would be made to include the remaining land from the Burroughs Plantation currently lying outside the park boundary. The present visitor center would be enlarged for expanded exhibits and programming. Washington's childhood and later the later development of the site would be examined using a new system of waysides. The implementation of the plan would be supported by ongoing research to better protect the site and enrich the interpretive program. School and community outreach opportunities would be increased, and additional efforts to protect the rural agricultural character of the land surrounding the park would be made. The former school would continue to be used as park administrative space; however, a portion of the historic building would be rehabilitated and restored. The maintenance shop and yard would be relocated. Staffing levels would be increased to support expanded research and educational opportunities. Establishing stronger interpretive, research, and educational relationships with related organizations and protecting the rural setting of the park and the surrounding area would be the focus of partnership development. The plan would set park goals for the next 15 to 20 years. The estimated capital costs of improvements are $4.9 million and the estimated annual operational costs are $870,000. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would provide guidance for strengthening resource stewardship and visitor experience. The preservation and enhancement of the understanding of the life and contributions of Washington to the nation would be ensured. The improved and expanded facilities would provide additional and higher quality visitor opportunities. The acquisition of land to expand the park boundary would insure that incompatible land uses were not developed on the acquired land. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activities and selective clearing of vegetation relating to the expansion of the trail system could result in the relocation of certain wildlife species.

AN - 36419060; 7438 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for public lands and resources within the El Malpais National Conservation Area, the Chain of Craters Wilderness Study Area, and contiguous lands in Cibola County, located in western New Mexico, is proposed. The planning area, which lies south of the city of Grants, consists of approximately 248,000 acres of public land and 36,500 acres of private land bordered on the east by the Acoma Indian Reservation, on the south by Catron and Socorro counties, on the west by Ramah Navajo land, and on the north by the Zuni Mountain portion of the Cibola National Forest. Planning issues and criteria identified during scoping include those related to recreation, facility development, access and transportation, wilderness management and suitability, American Indian uses and traditional cultural practices, other cultural resources, wildlife habitat, vegetation, and boundary and land ownership adjustments. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), which would perpetuate the existing management regime, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative D), 41,300 acres would be added and 960 acres released from the area, bringing to total land managed within the area to 302,440 acres. The management of the area would provide a combination of developed and dispersed recreational opportunities. More specifically, the plan would provide 79,000 acres of roaded natural recreational opportunities, 72,000 acres of semi- primitive motorized recreational opportunities, and 135,300 acres of semi- primitive nonmotorized recreational opportunities. Dispersed camping and picnicking would be allowed throughout the planning area. Additional recreational facilities would be developed, including 20 single-family units and one multi-family unit, and the Narrows recreation site would be rehabilitated and converted for picnic and trailhead use. The plan would provide for visitation at 12 cultural and historical sites and include 57 miles of trail, including five existing and 10 new trails, and 11 trailheads. Approximately 104,730 acres would be designated for nonmotorized access and 143,270 acres would be open to off-highway vehicle access. Approximately 104,730 acres would be designated as wilderness, and an additional 3,930 acres would be recommended as suitable for designation via the expansion of the Cebolla Wilderness Area. Wildlife enhancement would affect 3,100 acres and include prescribed burning, woodland thinning, 40 acres of wildlife developments, 1.5 miles of riparian fencing, and 1,000 acres of prairie dog enhancement measures. Range improvement measures would be implemented to improve livestock grazing, and up to 150 acres of woodland would be thinned each year to meet vegetation objectives. The plan would remain in place for 15 to 20 years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan implementation would ensure continued maintenance and improvement of an area designated for recreation, wildlife habitat enhancement, and cultural resource protection. Recreational opportunities would be more developed and better defined for those who enjoy concentrated and dispersed recreation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The recreational developments would disturb 9,820 acres of wildlife habitat. The prescribed burning would decrease recreational opportunities in the short run, and newly designated wilderness area would be closed to motorized access. The encouragement of dispersed recreation activities and livestock grazing could result in unauthorized disturbance of cultural resource sites.

AN - 16339677; 7437 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Marsh-Billings National Historical Park, located in Woodstock in eastern Vermont, is proposed. The park was a gift to the United States from Mary French and Laurence S. Rockefeller. Mary French Rockefeller's grandfather, Frederick Billings, developed the property into an estate in the late 1800s. Billings' stewardship efforts, including a model farm and a forest, were influenced by George Perkins Marsh, a noted conservationist. The area was established as a national historical park in 1992 in order to interpret the history and evolution of conservation stewardship in America, to recognize the contributions made by Marsh and Billings to conservation, and to preserve the Marsh-Billings Mansion as a historical landmark. The park consists of three distinct areas: a 550-acre forest on the slopes of Mount Tom and remnants of a tree plantation system begun by Frederick Billings in the 1870's; the mansion, constructed in 1807 on a promontory at the head of Elm and River streets; and the Billings Farm and Museum, an 88-acre working farm. Two alternatives, the Partnership Park Concept (the proposed action) and the Independent Coordinated Park Management Alternative, are considered in this abbreviated final EIS, which includes the general management plan alternatives included in the draft EIS and responses to the draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the park would be jointly managed by the National Park Service and the Woodstock Foundation, which operates the Billings Farm and Museum. On arrival, visitors would park their cars at Billings Farm and Museum, which would be expanded to serve as an orientation center for the entire park. Basic services such as restrooms, museum shops, and information about park activities will be at this center. Fees would be charged for admission to the facility as well as scheduled tours of the mansion and residential complex. The carriage barn at the mansion would be renovated so that it could house exhibits and administrative offices. The renovation would cost $2.4 million; the annual federal operating budget for the park would be $1.2 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the implementation would enhance visitor appreciation of the conservation movement in the 19th century. Park visitation would increase, and the resulting increase in tourism would benefit the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: NONE.

New technology that allows above-ground measurements of reflected light is also being tested to characterize mine drainage on the basis of spectral properties of different iron minerals. Some remote sensing tools can be used to differentiate between acidic and neutral waters because iron flocculates in acid water feature markedly different spectral signatures relative to those formed in neutral water.

AN - 36419035; 7432 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park, located in New Orleans in southeastern Louisiana, is proposed. The temporary administrative headquarters for the park are located on Canal Street in downtown New Orleans. For all practical purposes, the essence of the park encompasses the greater metropolitan New Orleans area. The park seeks to preserve jazz resources and disseminate information about the history, development, and progression of jazz and its many contributions for societies locally, regionally, nationally, and around the world. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), were considered in the draft EIS. The alternatives are based on park purpose, significance, management goals, and visitor use goals. Alternative B would emphasize conveying the park's interpretive story through such personal programs as interpretive talks and demonstrations, interpreted and other performances, and seminars. Educational activities would be given maximum priority, and the park would be allowed to assist in the adaptive use of structures related to jazz. The interpretive programming would depend heavily on the involvement of local musicians and educators. The visitor center would be located at the Old U.S. Mint. Under the proposed alternative (Alternative C), the management regime would emphasize a strong partnership program between the National Park Service (NPS) and other entities involved in preserving the New Orleans jazz tradition. The NPS would provide funding for basic park operations and work intensively with others to develop partnerships and alternative funding sources for interpretation, visitor use and experiences, and other activities focusing on preserving the jazz tradition. The extent and success of this alternative would depend on substantial support from partners, particularly those in the private sector. The interpretation media would be extensively used, and the size and scope of park education and preservation programs would be guided by the development of partnerships. The visitor center would, at least initially, be located at a complex in Louis Armstrong Park. The implementation of the alternative would be in gradual phases, requiring years to complete. The estimated removal and rehabilitation costs of the structures under the preferred alternative are $3.2 million and $4.2 million, respectively. The estimated planning, design and construction costs for interpretive materials and displays are $2.1 million. The estimated costs for partners are $6.8 million. The estimated annual costs for contract fees paid to musicians are $274,200. This final EIS summarizes the draft EIS briefly, indicates that Alternative C continues to be the preferred alternative, and presents errata and responses to the draft EIS. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Either action alternative would provide better protection to jazz-related resources than the current management direction (Alternative A). If successful, the proposed alternative would achieve the broadest level of interpretation and visitor services and provide the optimum opportunity for high-quality visitor experiences. The employment resulting from the park operations, the construction of facilities, and the spin-off tourism would enhance the local economy as would the partnerships and the resulting grants and funding availability. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The cultural resources, visitor experiences, and jazz preservation would be adversely affected if partners could not be found. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 101-499.

Preparation date: May 28, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR HOMESTEAD NATIONAL MONUMENT OF AMERICA, GAGE COUNTY, NEBRASKA. AN - 36410844; 7429 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan (GPM) for the Homestead National Monument of America, located in southeastern Nebraska, is proposed. The 194.57-acre monument is located approximately 50 miles south of Lincoln. The monument commemorates the results of the Homestead Act of 1862, which accelerated the European settlement of the American West beyond the Mississippi by allowing U.S. citizens and immigrants to claim and develop farmsteads. The homestead selected for the monument was that of Daniel Freeman, a colorful self- promoter, who for decades courted public recognition of himself as the first homesteader. The federal government owns in fee the original 162.73-acre Freeman Homestead, which is the basis for the monument, along with the adjacent 1.2-acre Freeman School parcel. Privately owned land, currently used for row crop farming, comprises the 12.46 acres within the boundary. The original homestead now consists of approximately 100 acres of reconstructed native tallgrass prairie and 60 acres of hardwood forest; this area also includes nearly three acres of buildings and trails. The GPM would replace the monument's existing, outdated 1988 GPM. Since the 1988 GPM was developed, monument functions have outgrown the available infrastructure. For example, the exhibits on the Homestead Act and homesteading are outdated; the storage space for museum and archival collections is severely limited; and there is no facility solely dedicated for researchers to access the homestead collections and archives. Moreover, the monument's visitor center complex is situated in the 100-year floodplain of nearby Cub Creek and improvement of State Highway 4, scheduled for redesign and improvement by the year 2001, will bring an increased mix and volume of vehicles through the monument. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), and two subalternatives are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative C-1) would significantly change the location of key monument functions to a location outside the existing flood hazard zone and outside the current Monument boundaries. The plan would also include components for prairie restoration, the protection of the cultural landscape, the cooperation with the Nebraska Department of Roads in the relocation of State Highway 4, and interpretative efforts with respect to the Freeman School. The estimated annual operating expenses under the preferred alternative are $720,000. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan implementation would preserve and interpret the memory of homesteaders of the latter half of the 19th Century. The improvements to monument infrastructure would prevent damage to site resources and enhance interpretation of the monument. The plan would allow for a more complete inventory of the plant and animal species within the monument area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The plan implementation would result in removal of approximately 14.5 acres of prime farmland from agricultural production. The construction of the visitor facilities could alter hydrologic conditions on the reconstructed prairie, adversely affecting prairie vegetation. The increased visitation due to the presence of the new visitor facilities could result in the usual adverse impacts of increased human presence, altering visitors' experience.

Preparation date: May 26, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SOLEDAD CANYON SAND AND GRAVEL MINING PROJECT, LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 16346795; 7415 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a 20-year mining and reclamation plan at a site located north of Soledad Canyon Road and the Santa Clara River, located in southwestern California, is proposed. The applicant, Transit Mixed Concrete Company, would mine 83 million tons of material and produce and sell approximately 56 million tons of sand and gravel, also known as Portland cement concrete sand and gravel. The site would include a concrete batch plant to produce ready-mixed concrete for delivery to local markets. The mining, aggregate production, and batch plant site is on split-estate lands, where the minerals are federally owned and administered by the Bureau of Land Management and where the surface is privately owned. The site is located within the Saugus- Newhall Production-Consumption Region of Los Angeles County, as described in the State Surface Mining and Reclamation Act, and is designated by the state as a regionally significant construction aggregate resource area. The site carries a Los Angeles County designation for heavy manufacturing use under which mineral extraction is allowed. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Amongst the action alternatives, the environmentally preferable alternatives include the applicant's proposal and the Reduced Quantity Mining Concept and Reduced North Fines Storage Area Alternatives. For the purposes of analysis, the project site has been divided into two sections (Area A and Area B) based on land use and ownership. The surface mining operations would be conducted within the 460-acre Area A, for which the U.S. holds the mineral ownership. As split estate, the mineral estate is dominant and the mining operator is entitled to occupy as much of the surface as it needs for the purposes reasonably incident to mining or elated mining activities. The project processing facilities, including water resources, would be located primarily within the 40 acres constituting Area B. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The exploitation of the sand and gravel resource would provide a source of construction minerals primarily for use in the Santa Clarita Valley and greater Los Angeles area. Approximately $28.0 million in royalties would redound to the federal government. The environmentally sound and economically feasible reclamation of the site would be ensured. The Reduce North Fines Storage Area Alternative would decrease the amount of disturbance due to excess fines to 54 acres, while still producing the same volume of product. The Reduced Quantity Mining Concept Alternative would lessen the visual and air quality impacts of mining by avoiding the completion of one surface mining cut. The project would allow the continued employment of 400 to 500 workers once other local sand and gravel reserves were depleted. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The mining activities would result in the removal of 187 acres of natural vegetation and the associated wildlife habitat under the applicant's proposed action erosion, contributing sediment to the Santa Clara River and adversely affecting 23 acres of riparian habitat downstream of the project site. The landform transformations due to the mining activities would significantly and adversely affect the visual quality of the area. Certain receptors would experience noise levels in excess of federal standards, and the blasting would result in adverse vibration and airblast overpressure impacts for some local residents. The exhaust emissions generated by mining equipment would reduce air quality in an area already adversely affected by pollution levels exceeding federal standards. The Reduced Quantity Mining Concept Alternative would lessen the volume of product resulting from the project to 57 percent of the tonnage allowable by the applicant's proposed action. The traffic generated by the project activities would exacerbate the congestion on already heavily used roads in the vicinity of the project site.

Preparation date: May 14, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SOUTH BAGGS AREA NATURAL GAS DEVELOPMENT PROJECT, CARBON COUNTY, WYOMING. AN - 16348081; 7409 AB - PURPOSE: The drilling of additional natural gas development wells by the Merit Energy Company (Merit) in the 12,352-acre South Baggs Natural Gas Development Area, located in southern Wyoming, is proposed. The project area is generally located within Townships 12 and 13 North, Ranges 92 and 93 West, 6th Principal Meridian. Approximately 43 wells have already been developed in the area. The area is accessed by State Highway 789, a two-lane, paved facility extending from Interstate 80 at Creston Junction. Access to the interior of the project area is provided by an existing road networked developed to service prior and ongoing drilling and production activities. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative C), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, Merit would drill and develop 50 natural gas wells in the area over a period of approximately 10 years, in addition to continuing existing operations within the area. Alternative A would provide for the development of 40 wells and Alternative B would provide for the development of 90 wells. The development wells, access roads, pipelines, and other ancillary facilities on public lands would be permitted with the Bureau of Land Management and the Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission. Facilities located on privately owned surface would be permitted with the appropriate surface owner. The precise number of new wells, locations of the wells, and timing of drilling associated would be directed by the success of development drilling and production technology as well as economic considerations. The estimated total life expectancy of the project according to Merit would be approximately 35 years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The development of the natural gas resource in the project area would contribute to the nation's energy reserves. The project would provide continued employment for some local residents. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The implementation of Merit's proposal would disturb 50 acres of soils, vegetation, and the associated wildlife habitat due to pipeline construction, 80 acres due to access road construction, and 162.5 acres due to well site development. Alternative A would disturb 40 acres due to pipeline construction, 64 acres due to access road construction, and 130 acres due to well site development. Alternative B would disturb 90 acres due to pipeline construction, 144 acres due to access road construction, and 292.5 acres due to well site development. The compressor station construction would disturb 1.4 acres regardless of the alternative chosen. The cumulative disturbance for Merit's proposal, Alternative A, and Alternative B would amount to 211.4 acres, 191.4 acres, and 291.4 acres, respectively, following reclamation. The development activities could adversely affect fossil and cultural resources. Localized, short-term increases in carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, particulate matter, and sulfur dioxide would result from project operations. Increased surface water runoff, off-site sedimentation due to soil disturbance, increased salt loading and water quality impairment of surface waters, and channel morphology changes due to road and pipeline crossings would adversely affect water quality. Some recreationists would be displaced and project facilities would degrade visual quality in the area.

Preparation date: May 10, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WYODAK COAL BED METHANE PROJECT, POWDER RIVER BASIN, CAMPBELL AND CONVERSE COUNTIES, WYOMING. AN - 36411288; 7407 AB - PURPOSE: The expanded development of federal coalbed methane (CBM) properties within the Wyodak Project Area, located in northeastern Wyoming, is proposed. The applicants for the expanded development are Barrett Resources Corporation and Lance Oil and Gas Company. The project area lies in the eastern portion of the Powder River Basin and, partially, within the Thunder Basin National Grassland. Though only 8.1 percent of the project area is federal surface, federal ownership of oil and gas rights covers approximately 50 percent of the project area and federal ownership of coal rights covers approximately 88 percent of the project area. This draft EIS has been prepared to analyze the potential impacts of additional development of federal CBM properties that were not analyzed in the Gillette South EIS and the Gillette North environmental assessment; the project area includes new developments within these two areas and locations now under development exclusively on state and private leases outside the original assessment areas. The development scenarios of 3,000 gas wells, the proposed action, and 5,000 wells (Alternative 1) were considered in the Gillette South EIS and the Gillette North Environmental Assessment. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The action alternatives include the proposed action, drilling of 3,890 productive wells in the project area, and the drilling of 5,890 productive wells (Alternative 1) as well as the development of ancillary facilities, including roads, pipelines, transmission lines, and CBM compressors. The wells and ancillary facilities would be located within a project boundary extending from approximately 33 miles north of Gillette to 24 miles south of Wright. Wells would be located on lands within a roughly rectangular area adjacent to coal mines along the eastern project boundary and would extend to a western boundary located approximately 18 to 36 miles to the west. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The development of CBM resources would allow for an orderly, environmentally acceptable means of providing an energy resource to meet the needs of the nation. The development of the federally owned CBM would also reduce the possibility of drainage from federal mineral estate and loss of royalties to the U.S. Treasury and the state of Wyoming. It would also provide employment opportunities and otherwise bolster the local economy. Water flows generated by the CBM wells would be available for livestock watering and wildlife use, the development of fisheries, and crop irrigation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The soils and vegetation on up to 16,751 acres of land and the associated wildlife habitat, including wetland habitat, could be adversely affected by the CBM development activities. An estimated 6,514 acres of land would have soils adversely affected by long-term disturbances related to the construction of the production facilities, roads, and pipelines. Seven federally listed special status species and 27 sensitive species have been identified as potentially occurring within the project area. The project area would have numerous archaeological and historical sites. The CBM developing occurring upstream from nearby surface coal mines could adversely affect coal mining operations due, inter alia, to the loss of hydraulic pressure in the coal aquifer. Once water flows from the CBM developments cease, ranchers and others dependent on such flows would lose this benefit and capital investments in structures related to the increased flows would be rendered less valuable. Emissions of formaldehyde from compressor engines would pose a minimal risk to human health. Project facilities would constitute visual intrusions in the area.

AN - 16339532; 7402 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan for the Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park, located about 50 miles west of the city of Austin and about 60 miles north of city of San Antonio in central Texas, is proposed. Three alternatives are considered in this draft EIS; each would provide a two-phased approach to the management and development of the park. The first phase would reflect the actions that could be implemented immediately and the second phase those actions that could be implemented following the departure of the Secret Service. A No Action Alternative (Alternative 1) would perpetuate the present management course, continuing the bus tour at the ranch but providing no visitor transportation into the settlement. The Texas White House would be opened to visitors only on special occasions. The minimum requirements alternative (Alternative 2) would result in a modest increase in the level of park maintenance, interpretation, and administration, providing for a higher level of protection for the park's historic resources and expanding educational outreach into the local community. A limited schedule of visitation at the Texas White House would be allowed, requiring that the bus tour be changed into a shuttle system. The preferred alternative (Alternative 3) would provide for a comprehensive change in the overall visitor experience of the ranch, with the Texas White House opened on a regularly schedules basis, the bus tour becoming a shuttle system, and facilities for visitor contact, maintenance, ranching, and park interpretive staff. In Johnson City, the visitor experience of the settlement would become much more unique and educational. The staffing would remain the same under Alternative 1, increase somewhat under Alternative 2, and increase substantially under Alternative 3. The estimated development costs for the preferred alternative are $6.8 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan implementation would assure the management, use, and development of the park such that it would best serve visitors while preserving the historic character, structures, and landscape of the area. The increased staffing and increased visitation at the site would contribute somewhat to the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The adaptive rehabilitation of the interiors of historic buildings would result in a minor irreversible loss of historic fabric. Approximately 8.5 acres of land, including some undeveloped land, would be disturbed by the facility construction. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 91-134.

AN - 62493171; ED432433 AB - Federal legislation requires that the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) facilitate American Indian control of Indian affairs in all matters related to education. Accordingly, the BIA schedules annual consultation meetings in which tribes, parents, schools, and other interested parties can discuss educational issues and current BIA proposals. This consultation booklet provides background information on four items discussed at regional meetings in May 1999. An introduction discusses legislative authority for consultation; lists dates, locations, and local contacts for 13 regional meetings; and outlines formats for meetings and for submitting written comments. Item 1 concerns tribal application for construction of replacement educational facilities. The BIA developed a streamlined application and instructions and specific criteria for ranking applications on the basis of need. An alternative funding scheme for facilities construction is also described, involving long-term financial partnerships with the federal government. BIA sources of technical assistance are listed. Item 2 is open for discussion of any topic, but suggested topics are the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act and how to obtain an appropriate tribal governing body for BIA off-reservation boarding schools that wish to convert to tribal-school status. Item 3 discusses possible expansion of the Family and Child Education Programs to include all BIA-funded schools. Item 4 concerns the revision of regulations, by writing them in "plain English," relating to grants to tribally controlled community colleges and Navajo Community College.

AN - 36414347; 7392 AB - PURPOSE: The exploration for and the development of natural gas reserves within the 1.06-million-acre Continental Divide/Wamsutter II Project Area, located in eastern Sweetwater County and southwestern Carbon County in southern Wyoming, are proposed. The project area would include 531,400 acres of federal surface, 9,800 acres of state surface, and 520,000 acres of private surface. Approximately 845 well locations and associated access roads and pipelines currently exist in the area or have been authorized. The applicants include Amoco Production Company, Union Pacific Resources Company, Yates Petroleum Corporation, Snyder Oil Corporation, and other natural gas operators. Gas reserves to be assessed lie in portions of Townships 15 through 23 North, Ranges 91 through 99 West. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The applicants' proposal would involve the exploration for and the development of natural gas and condensate reserves present in the Almond Formation and other formations at depths of approximately 7,000 to 10,000 feet. The applicants would construct, drill, complete, operate, and reclaim up to 3,000 well locations, with an estimated 2.6 acres for each location, on variable spacing patterns within the project area. The additional facilities would include 1,500 miles of new or upgraded road, 1,500 miles of pipelines, five compressor stations, one gas processing facilities, 10 evaporation ponds, five disposal wells, and 50 water wells. The well development would begin in 1999 and extend 10 to 20 years, with 150 to 300 wells sunk per year. The estimated life of the project is 30 to 50 years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The gas from the project would be transported through existing and newly developed pipelines linking wells with existing regional pipelines, providing for regional power needs and boosting the local economy through provision of jobs and tax and other income. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The total maximum initial new ground surface disturbance required for the applicants' proposal would amount to 22,400 acres. Life-of-project disturbance would adversely affect approximately 15,900 acres and include 7,600 acres of already disturbed land. Localized, short-term increases in carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, particulate matter, and sulfur dioxide concentrations would occur, but no air quality standard would be violated. The emission of nitrogen oxides from compressors could adversely affect visual resources associated with the Rawah Wilderness. The significant adverse impacts to erodible soils could occur under the proposed action if stabilized sand dunes were reactivated. The project-related disturbances would take place in an area containing significant paleontological resources. The project activities could also adversely affect desert vegetation communities and grazing in the area, which provides 110,668 animal unit months of forage on 26 grazing allotments.

AN - 16350795; 7395 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of developments within the 60-acre Letterman Complex located in the northeast corner of the 1,480-acre Presidio, located on the south side of Golden Gate Park in the northern tip of the San Francisco peninsula in northern California, is proposed. Because of its strategic location, the Presidio served as a U.S. Army post for nearly 220 years under three different flags; the area contains 870 historic buildings representing a variety of military architectural styles. In 1995, the Presidio was transferred from the Army to the National Park Service and become part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. The Letterman Complex is in close proximity to the Lombard Street Gate and is one of the most urban locations within the Presidio. Under the Presidio's general management plan, the complex was designated as a building and activity core, where building demolition and replacement construction would occur. The area contains approximately 1.3 million square feet of floor space scattered throughout 50 buildings. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 6), are considered in this draft supplement to the final EIS of July 1994. The No Action Alternative and the use of the area for the siting of a science and education center (Alternative 1), have been tentatively rejected by the Presidio Trust, which administers the complex and the remainder of the Presidio. Alternative 2 would result in creation of a sustainable urban village, including a campus for education, office space, health care facilities, 300 to 400 rental housing units, and a 250-room inn and retreat, all organized around a commons. Alternative 3 would result in a mixed- use development, including a conference center supported by a 350-room lodge, a senior living center, a culinary institute, and office space. Alternative 4 would result in a mixed-use complex containing office buildings, 400 to 450 residential units, and some support services. Alternative 5 would provide an office campus for several units of a single company engaged in research, development, and production of digital arts and technologies related to the entertainment industry. The alternatives not yet tentatively rejected by the Presidio Trust would involve the demolition of the 451,000-square-foot Letterman Army Medical Center (LAMC) and the 356,000-square-foot Letterman Army Institute of Research (LAIR); these buildings would be replaced with 900,000 square feet of space. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The alternatives not yet tentatively rejected by the Presidio Trust would provide programs and visitor services or concessions consistent with the general objectives of the Presidio management plan. The employment and earnings generated by the redeveloped complex would probably enhance San Francisco's economy; The employment and payroll within the city would be boosted by 0.14 percent. The removal of the LAMC and the LAIR would enhance the historic character of the Presidio, which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places, and improve views from many vantage points in the Presidio, generally enhancing the visual integrity of the complex. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The alternatives not yet tentatively rejected by the Presidio Trust would not promote infill construction within the complex as recommended within the Presidio management plan. The construction activities for these alternatives would generate 80,000 tons of debris, one percent of the total volume of waste disposed annually in the San Francisco Bay area, and the complex would consume 20,000 to 97,000 gallons of water per day during operation. Traffic levels would increase by 4,280 to 5,700 external trips per day.

AN - 36421932; 7378 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a travel management vegetation treatment and noxious weed management plans for the 199,860-acre North Belts Travel Plan/Maggie Confederate Vegetation Restoration Area of the Townsend and Helena ranger districts in the Helena National Forest, located in central Montana, is proposed. Issues addressed include those associated with the appropriate level of motorized and non-motorized use, the maintenance of the status quo via enforcement of current management provisions, the production of commodities in an economically sound manner, the use of prescribed fire to accomplish vegetation objectives, the maintenance of air and water quality, the improvement of fish habitat and soils, the control or containment of noxious weeds, and the maintenance or enhancement of wildlife habitat. Five travel management alternatives, five vegetation treatment alternatives, and three noxious weed alternatives are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed travel management alternative, no areas would be open to wheeled vehicles, 75,000 acres would be open to off-route snowmobile use, and 119 miles of road and 42 miles of trail would be open to wheeled vehicles year round. Roads open seasonally to wheeled vehicles would include 191 miles of road during the winter and early spring, 166 miles during the late spring, 241 miles during the summer, 221 miles during the early fall, and 200 miles during the late fall. Trails open seasonally to motorized use would include 63 miles during winter and through late spring, 87 miles during the summer and early fall, and 60 miles during the late fall. The designated game retrieval routes would include 31 miles for big game and nine miles for mountain lion. The road closures would affect 198 miles of road. The vegetation management would involve prescribed burning and timber harvesting on 11,510 acres. The road work would include the construction and recontouring of three miles of road, the reconstruction and recontouring of three miles of road, and the construction of two gates along the Powder River and one water crossing. No preferred alternative has been selected for noxious weed control, though the action alternatives under consideration have been narrowed to two. Herbicides would be applied to dalmation toadflax, leafy spurge, musk thistle, and spotted knapweed. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The travel management plan would bring motorized use into balance with other resources while also protecting those resources, particularly elk security and water quality. The vegetation management would move the targeted plant communities towards the desired, integrated conditions, reduce the threat of fire, and restore some balance to grasslands and forested land in the study area. The noxious weeds plan would provide for a more aggressive, cost-effect weed control program. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The road closures and restrictions would adversely affect some recreationists. The travel restrictions would also reduce options for weed treatment as well as weed mapping, potentially resulting in weed infestations going unnoticed. There would be a high risk of weed spreading from continued public use on some open, motorized trails and roads, though this risk would be decreased by closure of 198 miles of roads and trails. The development and maintenance of the road system would be more involved and costly in the short- term. The obliteration of 64 miles of road and the construction of seven miles of trail could adversely affect cultural resources, and access allowed on roads remaining open to public use could result in further damage to cultural resources. The vegetation management would contribute to short-term erosion and sedimentation due to prescribed burns and silvicultural treatments, and prescribed burns would degrade air quality temporarily. The herbicide application would expose workers and, to a lesser extent, recreationists to toxins and reduce water quality in receiving streams immediately following application.

AN - 62474732; ED429522 AB - This research brief examines changes in the age distribution of faculty in the University of Wisconsin (UW) system over time and trends in faculty retirement. Findings indicate that: (1) in 1997-98, 35 percent of faculty were age 55 and older, 51 percent were between 40 and 54, and fewer than 15 percent were under 40; (2) on average, faculty at the UW comprehensive institutions were somewhat older than faculty at UW-Madison and UW-Milwaukee; faculty at the UW colleges were older than faculty in other system institutions; (3) faculty age distribution varied across academic disciplines, with engineering and physical sciences having both the highest percentage in the 55 and older age group and the highest percentage of faculty under 40; (4) between 1985-86 and 1997-98 the total number of UW system faculty declined by 9.8 percent; however, the number of faculty 55 and over increased by 18 percent and the number under age 40 declined by 41.4 percent, which changed the age distribution. Based on historical retirement rates, it is projected that 2,384 faculty members (close to 40 percent) systemwide will retire over the next decade. Text, figures, and graphs present the detailed analysis. Appendices include technical notes, additional tables, and notes on the projection methodology used.

In 1991, the Secretary of the Interior outlined actions that agencies should take in (1) preserving and researching sites, (2) preventing looting and vandalism, (3) educating the public, and (4) conserving collections and records. This report examines progress in each of these areas and highlights cooperative efforts with American Indians, Alaska Natives, and Native Hawaiians. These efforts have included involvement of Native groups in archeological research; training and technical assistance to Native groups who wish to do their own archeology; contributions by elders to understanding the cultural context of sites; workshops for Native American educators using archeology to build K-12 curricula; and mentoring of Native youth in preservation. Sections on each of the four areas of concern include a short overview of the situation, followed by program profiles and highlights. The section on reaching out to the public describes an Alaska Native initiative to interpret cultural sites to the public, development of a kit and lesson plans on Chinook culture for use in Washington schools, a virtual school "field trip" to American Indian sites in Virginia, and other school and college activities. Contains many photographs and a list of federal agencies that conduct, sponsor, or license archeology.

Teaching with Historic Places. AN - 62378315; ED438198 AB - This lesson explores the group of buildings in West Orange, New Jersey, built in 1887, that formed the core of Thomas Edison's research and development complex. They consisted of chemistry, physics, and metallurgy laboratories; machine shop; pattern shop; research library; and rooms for experiments. The lesson explains that the prototypes (ideas for alkaline batteries, recorded music, motion pictures) Edison developed in his laboratories were transformed into marketable products in an adjacent factory complex he began building in 1888. The lesson is based on the National Register of Historic Places registration file, "Edison National Historic Site," the archives maintained at the site, and other materials about Edison and his laboratory. The material can be used in teaching units on the industrialization of the United States, the development of science and technology, or social change in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Students discover how Edison systematized the process of inventing, allowing for the rapid development and production of inventions that improved the lives of millions. The teaching activities include: (1) "West Orange, N.J."; (2) "Edison's Laboratory Complex, 1887"; (3) "Edison's Laboratory Complex, c. 1914"; (4) "The Creation of the Research and Development Laboratory"; (5) "Edison and Popular Culture"; (6) "Edison and Batteries"; (7) "The Laboratory Complex"; (8) "The Chemistry Laboratory"; (9) "Edison's Library"; (10) "Edison and the Phonograph"; and (11) "Phonograph/kinetoscope Parlor, 1895"; (12) "Researching the Impact of Edison's Inventions"; (13) "The Invention Process"; and (14) "Researching the Local Community."

Pre- and post-dam channel change were assessed by bankfill channel width as the primary indicator variable. Overall channel response to the altered streamflow regime and sediment introduced by the dam has been minor. Some localized channel widening was observed but little post-dam change in bankfull channel width. The lack of a major post-dam channel response may be ascribed to a substantial reduction in the magnitude of the post-dam annual peak flows in combination with resistance to erosion of bed and bank materials.

The data are organized by major river basin to provide perspective on trends in water use among geographic areas of the state. Public supply represents about 9% of the total annual nonpower-related water withdrawals in Kansas. The largest volumes of water for public supply of 100 million gpd were withdrawn in the Kansas-Lower Republican basin in 1995 and in the Lower Arkansas basin in 1990. About 87% of total annual nonpower-related water withdrawals are for irrigation statewide.

AN - 36412664; 7351 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a flood control project within the Arroyo Pasajero watershed, located in the city of Huron and Fresno County in south-central California, is proposed. The study area lies approximately 50 miles southwest of the city of Fresno. Its upper watershed, located in the Diablo Range, comprises four major tributaries, namely, Los Gatos, Jacalitos, and Zapato Chino creeks. Below the confluence of Los Gatos and Warthan creeks, near Coalinga, the stream is known as Arroyo Pasajero. Where the arroyo leaves the Diablo Range and Pleasant Valley and enters the San Joaquin Valley, it forms a broad alluvial fan. The defined channel of the arroyo ends approximately 1.5 miles northwest of Huron. The project would focus on flood control to prevent damage involving the San Luis Canal (SLC), the cities of Coalinga and Huron, Lemoore Naval Air Station, and other susceptible facilities and resources. The project would involve the construction of flood detention facilities to improve the level of flood protection consistent with pertinent local planning documents and state and federal planning guidelines. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in the draft EIS. The Pasajero Gap Detention Dam Alternative would involve the construction of a dam on Arroyo Pasajero downstream of Coalinga. The gap dam, which would be approximately 8,400 feet long and have a maximum elevation of 590 feet above mean sea level, would provide 59,000 acre-feet of storage to detain floodwaters to reduce the threat of flooding downstream in the vicinity of the SLC. The Westside Detention Basement Enlargement with Overchute Alternative would involve the strengthening the embankments of the detention basin and 13 miles of embankments along the SLC and enhancing the existing detention basin near the canal. The total storage capacity of the basin would be 55,000 acre-feet. In addition, a protective levee would be constructed around the Huron. Three spillways would be provided to pass peak flows into the SCL, and an overchute structure would pass probable maximum floodflows into the SLC. The estimated first costs of the Pasajero Gap Detention Dam Alternative is $225.31 million, while the estimated cost of the West Side Detention Basin Alternative is $237.8 million. The estimated respective benefit- cost ratios are 1.17 and 1.75. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project implementation would reduce flood damage attributable to inundation of urban and agricultural areas, reduce sediment damage, minimize the closure of surface transport infrastructure, enhance groundwater recharge potential, address the potential health hazards associated with waterborne and airborne asbestos, and reduce agricultural, municipal, and industrial damage attributable to the interruption of water supplies from the State Water Project and the Central Valley Project. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Either alternative would require the relocation of various public and private facilities, and the Westside Detention Basin Alternative would require the permanent closure of Lassen Avenue. Depending on the alternative chosen, the project activities would require the conversion of 151 to 800 acres of farmland, 10 to 64 acres of woody riparian habitat, and up to 30 acres of valley saltbrush habitat as well as the displacement of some open space, possible increases in flooding of habitat and sites used for the Upland Gam Bird Hunting Program and by three to 12 special-status plant species, and the potential loss of nesting swallow habitat. The construction activities would result emissions exceeding federal air quality standards, potential impacts to San Joaquin kit foxes, burrowing owls, raptors, and/or blunt-nosed leopard lizards. The Westside Detention Basin Alternative would expose noise-sensitive land uses to construction noise in excess of federal standards. The construction workers and local residents could be exposed to airborne asbestos during construction. The Headquarters of Allen Ranch, an historically significant site, would be disturbed during the construction.

AN - 36418063; 7349 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a 520-megawatt natural gas-fired, combined-cycle power plant on private lands south of Kingman, located in northwestern Arizona, is proposed. The applicant, Griffith Energy Limited Liability Corporation (Griffith), would operate the facility as a merchant plant, meaning that it would not be owned by a utility and that there would be no long-term commitment or obligation by any utility to purchase the capacity and energy generated by the plant. Griffith has applied to interconnect the plant with the Western Area Power Administration's (Western) Pacific Northwest- Pacific Southwest Intertie and Parker-Davis transmission systems. Western, as a major transmission system owner, needs to provide access to its transmission system when it is requested by an eligible organization per existing policies, regulations, and laws. The proposed action would include the power plant, water wells, and transmission lines as well as natural gas pipelines, electrical transmission lines, and a substation. An existing transmission line would be upgraded and roads would be constructed to provide access to the plant. The plant site support infrastructure would include an administration building, warehouse storage, an auxiliary boiler, water treatment and storage facilities, cooling towers, and gas conditioning equipment. The plant and infrastructure would occupy less than 65 acres within a 160-acre site in the proposed Mohave County Interstate 40 Industrial Corridor. Griffith would use an infrastructure system being developed for the corridor, which includes water pipelines that would pipe water from a well field provided by Golden Valley County Improvement District Number 2. The water demand for the project would be 3,300 gallons per minute. Underground pipelines would bring high-pressure gas to the generating facility from two natural gas pipelines. Other facilities required would include two natural gas supply lines, two 230-kilovolt (230-kV) transmission lines, a 230-kV/345-kV substation and associated access road, and an upgraded 230-kV transmission line. The power plant would burn only natural gas, consuming an estimated 110 million cubic feet per day. Griffith would develop interconnections with two potential gas suppliers, El Paso Natural Gas Company and Transwestern Pipeline Company. In addition to the proposed action, three No Action Alternative scenarios are considered in this final EIS, including: the construction of the transmission lines and interconnections by Griffith rather than Western; the construction of the plant and similar or slightly different transmission lines and interconnection, possibly in cooperation with another utility or other government parties; and the No-Build Scenario. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The interconnection would integrate the power generated by Griffith's plant into the regional transmission system, allowing Griffith to supply power to the competitive electric wholesale market. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction of the plant and related facilities would displace 160 acres of sand and gravel resources, and access roads and substation facilities would displace 10 acres of semidesert mixed grass-mixed scrub series vegetation. The transmission line corridors would displace additional wildlife habitat and would traverse populated areas, affecting safety, visual aesthetics, and broadcast reception. The brine disposal pond would exceed wildlife effluent dependent surface water standards for several pollutants. The powerplant operation would result in the release of nitrous oxides and carbon monoxide, and contribute to regional haze. The removal of vegetation during the plant and transmission line construction would cause erosion and sedimentation of receiving flows. The plant would consume 22 billion to 41 billion cubic feet of natural gas per year. The hazardous materials used during operation of the plant could be released into the surrounding area.

AN - 62395967; ED438199 AB - This lesson traces the use of Eleanor Roosevelt's retreat, Val-Kill, a "shack" (actually a stone cottage) built in 1925 on the grounds of the Roosevelt family estate at Hyde Park (New York), and how it nurtured her spirit, personal style, and humanitarian efforts. The lesson explains that Eleanor and her women friends later expanded the retreat by converting a factory building into Val-Kill Cottage, where Eleanor moved permanently after her husband's death in 1945. The unit is based on the National Register of Historic Places registration file, "Eleanor Roosevelt National Historic Site", and other source materials. The lesson can be used in U.S. history courses, in units on efforts to achieve world peace during the 1950s, or on human rights and civil rights issues. Students will learn about Eleanor Roosevelt's contributions as a humanitarian. It is divided into the following teaching activities sections: "Setting the Stage: Historical Context"; "Locating the Site: Maps" (Eleanor Roosevelt NHS and Surrounding Region; Eleanor Roosevelt's Home at Val-Kill); "Determining the Facts: Readings" (Eleanor Roosevelt at Val-Kill; Goodwill Ambassador to the World; Universal Declaration of Human Rights; A Complex Woman); "Visual Evidence: Images" (Val-Kill; Members of UNESCO Meet with Eleanor Roosevelt; Eleanor Roosevelt Lunches with Future President, August 17, 1960; Eleanor Roosevelt Hosts Visitors from Overseas); and "Putting It All Together: Activities" (My Day; The Declaration of Human Rights; Local Volunteer Organizations).

GOLDWATER RANGE LAND WITHDRAWAL; MARICOPA, PIMA, AND YUMA COUNTIES, ARIZONA. AN - 36412594; 7345 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of the military land withdrawal and reservation for the 2.7- million-acre Barry M. Goldwater Range (BMGR), located in southwestern Arizona, is proposed. Four overlying airspace areas, containing 57,000 cubic miles of airspace designated by the Federal Aviation Administration, closely approximate the shape of the range area. Renewal is required if the military proposes to continue military use of the lands after 6 November 2001. The BMGR, which is administered by the Air Force, Air Education and Training Command through the 56th Fighter Wing, Range Management Office at Luke Air Force Base in Arizona. The range functions as an armament and high hazard testing area; provides facilities for training for aerial gunnery, rocketry, electronic warfare, and tactical maneuvering and air support; and supports other defense-related functions. Issues addressed include those related to airspace and range operations, non- military land and airspace use, public utilities and ground transportation, noise, public health and safety, cultural resources, socioeconomic resources, visual resources, recreation, hazardous materials and waste, earth resources, water resources, air quality, biological resources, and environmental justice. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would include the non-renewal of the BMGR, under which the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service would continue to have surface management jurisdiction over the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge and the Bureau of Land Management would assume full jurisdiction over other federal public landsare considered in this final EIS. The proposed action would renew the BMGR indefinitely with Congressional review and military accountability every 15 years. The other action alternative would renew the BMGR for 25 years. In addition to the primary alternatives, secondary scenarios associated with the renewal alternatives address military administration, the land withdrawal area, and the administrative management of the affected natural and cultural resources. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The renewal of the BMGR would preserve a component of the national defense training base for the continued and future readiness of the nation's air forces to defend the security of the nation and its interests. The operations at BMGR would continue to contribute significantly to the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Aircraft noise, including sonic booms, and noise from the explosion of munitions would continue to adversely affect the area within and around the range. Some residences west of Auxiliary Field 2 and one residence northeast of Gila Bend Air Force Auxiliary Field would continue to be exposed to average noise levels greater than 65 decibels. Public access to areas where hazardous activities occur, constituting approximately 22 percent of the BMGR, would continue to be restricted. Military ground activities would disturb cultural resource sites. Visual resources would be adversely affected by structures and flights and recreation activities would continue to be limited by access restrictions. The range activities would continue to result in use and generation of hazardous materials and disturbance of surface and groundwater resources. Vehicular movements, heavy equipment use, and the use of munitions would disturb soils and increase erosion and disturb wildlife habitat. The land withdrawal restrictions would impede development of mineral and energy resources, LEGAL MANDATES: Military Lands Withdrawal Act of 1986 (P.L. 99-606).

AN - 36421353; 7342 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a resource management plan on the 5,410 acres of Indian trust land constituting the Coquille National Forest, located in southwestern Oregon, is proposed. The lands were converted to Indian reservation lands from former O&C, Coos Bay Wagon Road, and public domain lands under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Management. Forest lands are primarily allocated to riparian reserves (3,401 acres) and general forest management areas (2,009 acres). An aquatic conservation strategy would be applied to all lands and waters in the forest. Riparian reserves would cover 3,401 acres. Approximately 3,600 acres would be managed for the retention and development of older forest stands. During the first decade, average annual timber management activities would consist of 30 acres of regeneration harvesting, 30 acres of prescribed burning, 30 acres of stand maintenance and protection, 140 acres of release and precommercial thinning, 10 acres of brushfield and hardwood conversion, and 30 acres of regular stock planting. The annual allowable timber sale quantity would be set at 2.0 million board-feet. Fish habitat would be improved along eight miles of stream during the management plan period. Trail maintenance would be performed on 0.8 mile of trail. The access by off-highway vehicles (OHVs) would be limited to designated roads and trails within 2,009 acres, with the remaining 3,401 acres closed to OHV use. Approximately 24 miles of road would be open for use. Approximately 3,401 would be designated for right-of-way avoidance. The entire area would be open for oil and gas and geothermal leasing and saleable mineral development, but 3,401 acres would be closed to mining location [The Department of Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) has adopted the Department of Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM) final EIS number 940460, filed with the Environmental Protection Agency on November 14, 1994. BIA was not a cooperating agency on the BLM EIS, therefore recirculation on the final EIS is necessary under 1506.3(b) of the Council of Environmental Quality Regulations.] POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would respond to the need for a healthy forest ecosystem providing habitat that would support populations of native species, particularly those associated with late-successional and old-growth forest. It would also respond to the need for a sustainable supply of timber and other forest products to maintain the stability of the Coquille Indian Tribe's economy on a predictable and long-term basis. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Air quality would be degraded by the prescribed burning. LEGAL MANDATES: Coquille Forest Act (25 U.S.C. 715c) and Coquille Restoration Act of 1989 (Public Law 101-42).

AN - 36418031; 7335 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a resource management plan for 329,679 acres of federal land and 12,152 acres of split mineral estate administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in its Coos Bay District, located in western Oregon, is proposed. The district is located on the western slopes of the Oregon Coast Range. The lands are predominantly forested with stands of Douglas fir, and drain into a number of different coastal rivers. The plan would establish guidelines for management of these lands for approximately ten years and would supersede the management framework plan for these lands and an amendment to that plan, which were completed in 1983 and 1984, respectively. Issues of concern include timber production practices, the maintenance of old-growth forests and habitat diversity, watershed management, water quality protection, and the effects on threatened and endangered species habitat, special management areas, recreation opportunities, and land tenure and access. Of particular interest is the issue of whether or not to harvest the remaining old-growth forests, and the likely effects of harvesting on biological diversity and the northern spotted owl, a threatened species. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action, the implementation would provide for a planned annual timber sale of 5.3 million cubic feet (32 million board feet), maintain water quality and long-term soil productivity, retain 114,000 acres of mature and old-growth forest lands, provide for the protection of federally-listed animal species, designate nine new areas of critical environmental concern on 7,950 acres, provide for Class I visual resource management on 600 acres, provide for mineral exploration and development on 317,100 acres, and provide opportunities to develop 23 recreational areas, sites, and trails. One hundred acres around each old-growth site occupied by a pair of spotted owls would be protected from harvest activities; an estimated 112,000 acres would be set aside for this purpose in the next ten years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed plan, the implementation would provide a moderate sustained yield of forest products that would contribute to community stability consistent with other resource values. Some wildlife habitat would improve. The timber management would increase the amount of old growth and the carrying capacity for the northern spotted owl, contributing to the long-term recovery of this species. Regional and subregional connectivity would be provided through the management of old-growth-emphasis and connectivity areas where special- status animals and plants cluster. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The restrictions on timber harvesting under the plan would result in a decline in timber production, which would adversely affect all sectors of the area economy, particularly the lumber and wood products industry. The mill closures, decreasing employment, and migration from timber-dependent communities could result; employment losses could increase local demand for social services. The air quality would be degraded by the prescribed burning each year of approximately 21,200 tons of debris and timber.

Preparation date: March 16, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLAN, ISLE ROYALE NATIONAL PARK, KEWEENAW COUNTY, MICHIGAN. AN - 36411119; 7340 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan (GMP) for the Isle Royale National Park, located on an island archipelago on the northwestern section of Lake Superior in the northern tip of the upper peninsula of Michigan, is proposed. The archipelago consists of one large island about 45 miles and nine miles wide, surrounded by 400 small islands. The park is located 60 miles from Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula, 22 miles from Grand Portage, Minnesota, and 35 miles from Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. The park was established in 1931, and its current management plan was developed in 1963. In recent years, all but one percent of its land has been designated as federal wilderness. Isle Royale is primarily a northwoods wilderness and maritime park; an overnight lodge is located on the eastern end of the island. Visitors come to the island to hike, backpack, motorboat, canoe, kayak, sail, scuba dive, and fish. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this final EIS. The proposed action (Alternative D) would be designed to meet the diverse expectations and needs of Isle Royale visitors while emphasizing the natural quiet that is fundamental to wilderness experiences. All park areas would be available to all visitors so long as users participate in ways that are consistent with access, facilities, and opportunities. Campgrounds would be designed and access provided to emphasize the separation of motorized and non- motorized uses. Docks would be removed from a few campgrounds, and quiet/no-wake water zones would be established. As all new campgrounds would lie within designated or potential wilderness areas, no shelters would be constructed. Park orientation would be provided to visitors at the Houghton, Copper Harbor, and Grand Portage ferry staging areas. On Mott Island, orientation, interpretation and education would be concentrated in developed and frontcountry zones of Rock Harbor, Windigo, and the Mott Island headquarters and administrative. The operations at Mott Island, Rock Harbor, and Windigo would not change for the most part. The Edisen Fishery and Rock Harbor Lighthouse would continue to be maintained and interpreted. Additional facilities would be constructed or considered at Crystal Cove, Write Island, Fishermans Home, Barnum Island, Washington Island, Rock Harbor, and Windigo, as well as the Passage Island, Isle Royale, and Rock of Ages lighthouses. Five sites would serve as wilderness portal zones. New trail facilities, campgrounds, and docks would be developed. The plan would be implemented over the next 15 to 20 years at a cost of $5.7 million over costs of the No Action Alternative; the estimated one-time and annual monitoring costs are $2.1 million and $10,000. An additional $400,000 would be spent annually to subsidize the concession at Rock Harbor. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would provide management guidelines for the park for the next 15 to 20 years and help to reduce potential conflicts among recreationists and enhance the wilderness experience of all visitors. The removal of structures in scenic areas would significantly improve visual aesthetics. The plan modifications would generally facilitate the preservation of historically and archaeologically significant resources within the park. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some displacement of wildlife would result from anticipated increases in visitor use and dispersal of visitors throughout the park. Increased activity would cause wolves to avoid areas of current use. The placement of campground and docks would result in the disturbance of archaeological resources by visitor use. Because of fewer docks, those in the middle of the island would not be as safe as those on the outer rim of the island.

AN - 36413972; 7332 AB - PURPOSE: The development and operation of a open-pit, heap-leach, precious metal mine and related facilities by Glamis Imperial Corporation, located in southeastern California, is proposed. The project mine and process area consists of 1,571 acres located 45 miles northeast of El Centro, California, and 20 miles northwest of Yuma, Arizona. The project applicant would use conventional heap leach mining methods to extract gold and silver from the mined ore. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, were considered in the draft EIS of November 1997. The proposed action would involve the operation of three open pits, two waste rock stockpiles, two soil stockpiles, five ephemeral wash (drainage) diversion channels, an administration office and maintenance facility area, a heap leach facility (consisting of a heap leach pad and process ponds), a precious metal recovery plant, an electric substation and emergency generator, and internal haul and maintenance roads and associated electrical distribution lines. Up to 150 million tons of ore would be mined and deposited on the leach pad where the precious metals would be leached. The ancillary facilities would include four groundwater production wells, 3.7 miles of buried water pipeline, and a 92-kilovolt (92-kV)/13.2-kV electrical transmission line. Under the proposed action, the Imperial Irrigation District would overbuild approximately 16 miles of existing 34.5-kV electric transmission line into a 92-kV/34.5-kV electric transmission line in order to provide electrical power for the project. Up to 300 million tons of waste rock would be mined and deposited in the waste rock stockpiles or the mined-out portions of the two open pits. The mining activities would be performed 24 hours per day, seven days per week. The typical mining rate would be 130,000 tons per day. The operations would commence in 1998 and terminate in the year 2017, although reclamation activities would probably continue beyond that date. According to the draft EIS, the project would require an initial capital investment of $48 million, $1.7 million per year in continuing capital expenditures, and $26 million per year in non-capital expenditures including payroll. This draft supplement to the draft EIS addresses a decision by the San Diego County Superior Court concluding that a lead agency, Imperial County, abused its discretion by failing to treat as significant the loss of habitat for certain species protected by state and federal legislation protecting endangered species. Biological surveys documented the presence of three listed animal species in the project area, namely, the desert tortoise, peregrine falcon, and Gila woodpecker. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The mine would employ up to 120 full-time workers for the life of the mine and provide associated taxes and revenues. The facility construction would require 300 workers. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would disturb 1,302 acres and divert segments of five existing watercourses. Particulate emissions from mining operations would contribute to periodic exceedances of regional air quality standards. The project would result in the loss of wildlife habitat and the displacement from the adversely affected habitat of wildlife, including the endangered desert tortoise. Visual resources would be adversely affected by mining activities. Numerous prehistoric cultural resources would be adversely affected.

AN - 36412677; 7328 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of the Airport Parkway/Mississippi 25 (MS 25) Connectors, located in southwestern Mississippi, is proposed. Extensive development along MS 25 and completion of the airport have greatly increased traffic levels in the corridor. Eight alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. All build alternatives would involve the construction of the connectors on new alignments. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative D), the Airport Parkway, a limited access freeway facility, would begin at the existing intersection of High Street and Interstate 55 (I-55) and extend eastward, crossing the Pearl River, for approximately 2.6 miles to its eastern terminus with Old Brandon and Airport Road (MS 475) south of the Jackson International Airport. The MS 25 Connector would begin at a point approximately 2.6 miles east of the western terminus of the Airport Parkway Connector, from which point it would proceed northeasterly for approximately four miles terminating at MS 25 (Lakland Drive) within the community of Luckney. The total length of both connectors is 9.3 miles. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would improve the operational efficiency and accessibility of the transportation system in the central and eastern portions of the Jackson metropolitan area, particularly with respect to access to the Jackson Municipal Airport. The additional crossing of the Pearl River, provided by the project, would provide needed relief to MS 25, Flowood Drive (MS 468), US 80, and I-20. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The rights-of-way development would result in the potential relocation of five single-family dwellings, two mobile homes, two commercial structures, and one non-profit organization (Junior Achievement of Mississippi). The noise levels at 16 occupied facilities would approach or exceed federal standards. The project would encroach on the 100-year floodplain of the Pearl River, though the encroachment would be not longitudinal in nature and floodplain areas would continue to function at current levels. Approximately 74.7 acres of wetlands would be adversely affected. LEGAL MANDATES: Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (42 U.S.C. 4601).

AN - 36424587; 7326 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a wetlands park in the east Las Vegas Valley, located in the southeast corner of Nevada, is proposed. The project area is located along a seven-mile reach of Las Vegas Wash, upstream of Lake Las Vegas. As the terminal outlet of the Las Vegas drainage basin, the Las Vegas Wash flows from west to east and empties into Las Vegas Bay in Lake Mead. While flows in the upper reaches of the Wash are intermittent and occur primarily during storm events, treated wastewater discharges in the lower reaches provide perennial flows to Lake Mead. The increase in wastewater flows and stormwater runoff have increased the risk of flash floods in the area and accelerated erosion and channelization in the Wash. The erosion results in the deposition of large amounts of sediment in Lake Mead and significantly reduces wetland vegetation within the Wash. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. All action alternatives would involve the placement of up to 15 erosion control structures upstream of Lake Las Vegas. Under the preferred alternative, a wetlands park would be established as an environmental and recreational resource emphasizing habitat enhancement, recreational facilities, and educational facilities for visitors. This alternative would involve the development of a five-acre open body of water behind one erosion control structure, the establishment of riparian vegetation, and the construction of 10,000-square-foot visitor center, an environmental education camp and research center, and a one-way scenic drive along the south side of the Wash. A multiple-use trail would run along both sides of the Wash. The park development would be phased and completed over a period of approximately 10 years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would control erosion in Las Vegas Wash, protect hundreds of acres of remaining wetlands, and provide a scenic recreational area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activity and increased visitor traffic once the park was operational would result in increased noise levels and a slight degradation of air quality.

The aquifer is the primary source of water for municipal users in the study area and is also exploited by the Peabody Coal Company to operate its coal slurry pipelines. Data collection activities are described, including water level measurements and simulations, water chemistry monitoring, and surface water discharge tracking. Water from the N aquifer is analyzed for selected chemical constituents to determine if declining hydraulic heads are inducing vertical leakage from the overlying D aquifer. Any increase in leakage rate as a result of pumping from the N aquifer would become evident as an increase in dissolved solids, sulfate, and chloride levels in the most heavily pumped wells.

AN - 36411150; 7316 AB - PURPOSE: The construction, operation, and decommissioning of a 48-megawatt (48-MW) (gross) geothermal powerplant with ancillary facilities, access roads, and a 230-kilovolt (230-kV) transmission line in Modoc National Forest, located in northern California, are proposed. The Medicine Lake Highlands, where the plant would be located, includes the 134,254-acre Glass Mountain Known Geothermal Resource Area, designed for geothermal development under the Geothermal Steam Act of 1970. The geothermal leases to be exploited include CA12370, CA12371, CA12372, CA13803, CA21933, and CCA2500. Two alternative powerplant sites, two alternative transmission line routes, and a No Action Alternative are considered in this final EIS. The powerplant, which would be located two miles southeast of Medicine Lake in Siskiyou County, would use double-flash technology, meaning the high-pressure geothermal fluid would be allowed to flash into steam within pressure vessels in two incremental steps to maximize the amount of steam captured for electrical power production. In addition to the powerplant itself, ancillary facilities would include 10 to 12 production well pads and three to five injection well pads, and production and injection pipelines; these facilities would encircle the powerplant. The primary access to the powerplant would be via Primary Forest Route 97/Modoc County Road 97. The project would be developed in three phases: a two- to three-year well field development and site construction phase; a commercial electrical power generation phase; and a decommissioning phase. Two options are under consideration for the construction of the 230-kV transmission line interconnection segments from the plant site to tie into the alternative transmission line utility corridors located in the Medicine Lake basin for the Fourmile Hill Geothermal Development Project; the alternative routes are 4.95 and 12.26 miles in length and would extend into Modoc County. In case the approved Fourmile Hill utility corridor proceeded north of the Medicine Lake basin, two transmission line routes are under consideration to tie into the Northern Utility Corridor. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The electricity generated by the plant would serve the regional grid. The construction workforce would peak at 330 to 350 workers and an additional 30 non-construction workers could be employed on site during the construction phase. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Ground shaking and volcanic activity in this geologically active region could damage plant facilities, and the production activities could induce microseismic activity. The removal of large quantities of geothermal fluid could result in subsidence. The designated unique geologic special interest areas in the vicinity could be physically impacted by project activities. The plant would consume 49.8 acre-feet of shallow groundwater per year during first phase, 6.5 acre-feet per year during second phase, and 4.0 acre-feet per year during the last phase. The blasting could adversely affect private wells. There would be a low probability that geothermal fluid could mix with shallow groundwater. The transmission line construction would displace wildlife habitat on 60-149 acres of land. The wildlife potentially affected by the project would include terrestrial and avian species, including the northern spotted owl, the northern goshawk, and bats. Large quantities of criteria air pollutants, particularly oxides of nitrogen, would be released from drilling rig engines, and up to 1,570 pounds of greenhouse gases would be released. Visibility at the Lava Beds National Monument could be slightly impaired, and plant facilities would be visible from several points including a key observation point overlooking the Medicine Lake Lava Flow. The project activities could inadvertently affect recorded cultural resources and exposes unrecorded sites. The continued development of any kind in the Medicine Lake Highlands would adversely affect the spiritual significance of the area for Native Americans. The construction and operation noise could be heard by hikers and other forest visitors. The project could be inconsistent with planning objectives, including those of the Northwest Forest Plan and recreational goals for the area, which are geared toward dispersed activities. A small potential would exist for uncontrolled release of geothermal fluids into the environment, and some possibility exists for accidental release of hazardous materials.

AN - 36406715; 7918 AB - PURPOSE: The granting of a petition questioning the suitability of certain land for surface coal mining operations by Skyline Coal Company in Fall Creek Falls State Park and Natural Area, located in central Tennessee, is proposed. The petition, which was filed by 49 concerned citizens, Save Our Cumberland Mountains, and Tennessee Citizens for Wilderness Planning, covers an approximately 85,588-acre area and encompasses the entire watershed and viewshed of Fall Creek Falls Park, although surface mining is prohibited by statute on 18,719 of those acres. The petition alleges that the reclamation of these lands would not be technologically or economically feasible; mining of these lands would disturb a fragile or historic lands which could result in significant damage to important historic, cultural, scientific, or esthetic values; mining would disturb renewable resource lands which would result in a substantial loss or reduction in long-range productivity of water supply or of food or fiber products; mining would disturb natural hazard lands which could substantially endanger life and property; and mining the area would be incompatible with existing state or local land use plans or programs. The central issue in the petition is the potential for acid mine drainage outside the park. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 4), are considered in this final EIS. The proposed action would involve granting the petition and designating the entire area as unsuitable for coal mining operations. Alternative 1 would deny the petition. The Office of Surface Mining's preferred alternative (Alternative 2) would deny the petition, permitting coal mining to occur, but require an EIS on permit action for each proposed mining operation. Alternative 3 would involve designating portions of the petition as unsuitable for certain types of coal mining operations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The granting of the petition would help to protect riparian areas and the public water supply. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The mining of the area would result in reduced water quality during construction of access roads and sediment basins, the loss of soil productivity during stockpiling and early stages of reclamation, the removal of timber and wildlife habitat in active mining areas, adverse effects on visual quality, noise and vibration from blasting and heavy machinery, adverse subsidence impacts associated with underground mining, increased sedimentation in area streams, and increased water treatment costs, health screenings, and illnesses. The natural landscape and historic nature of the Trail of Tears site would be adversely affected.

Preparation date: February 25, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - OIL AND GAS MANAGEMENT PLAN, PADRE ISLAND NATIONAL SEASHORE; KENEDY, KLEBERG, AND WILLACY COUNTIES, TEXAS. AN - 36424508; 7306 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for access and surface uses associated with the exploration, development, and transportation of nonfederal oil and gas underlying Padre Island National Seashore (PINS), located in southern coastal Texas, is proposed. The PINS preserves the longest undeveloped barrier in the United States, encompassing 69 miles of the 113-mile-long barrier island. The natural environment of PINS consists of a mixture of upland grasslands, extensive wetlands, and vegetated dunes. More than 60 percent of the park consists of wetlands comprising marshes, inland waters, wind-tidal flats, and seagrass beds. The cultural environment includes numerous archaeological sites and several cultural landscapes and historic structures. Issues identified during scoping include those associated with air quality, cultural resources, foredunes, freshwater ponds, local and regional economies, natural quite, night sky, oil and gas exploration and development, park operations, relict live oaks, rookery islands, seagrass beds, soils, threatened and endangered species, vegetation, visitor experience and health and safety, visitor use areas, visual quality, washover channels, water resources, wetlands, and wildlife. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative would provide specific, up-front protection for sensitive resource areas having important, natural, cultural, and visitor use values. The existing oil and gas operations located within such areas would include five gathering lines and one pipeline within 500 feet of Novillo Line Camp as well as one shut-in gas well located in the Lugan Madre surrounded by seagrass beds. These existing facilities would continue to operate, but restrictions under this alternative would apply to requests for additional surface disturbances and uses associated with existing operations and to requests for new oil and gas operations proposed after the implementation of the plan. The specific protection would be provided for 49 percent of the surface acreage of the park, covering 65,183 acres. The alternative would allow access to the entirety of Padre Island for geophysical (seismic) exploration under managed access provisions. The specific provisions, including the prohibition of surface access, surface occupancy, and ground disturbance as well as seasonal and timing restrictions, would limit drilling, production, and pipeline operations in some sensitive resource areas. Where surface access and uses were restricted, a surface location outside the affected sensitive resource area would be permitted to allow for directional drilling to a bottom hole location underlying the area. The placement of pipelines via directional drilling techniques would also be permitted so as to avoid surface impacts to sensitive resource areas. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan implementation would allow the safe development of all oil and gas resources underlying PINS, while protecting natural and cultural resources associated with the barrier island. The plan provisions would provide for full geophysical characterization of the park. Specific wetland communities, including three freshwater ponds, seagrass beds, and wind-tidal flats, would benefit from enhanced protection. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 250 acres within PINS would be disturbed; this constitutes only 0.2 percent of the park. These activities would result in the release of some contaminants into the park ecosystem and, potentially, into the Novillo Line Camp, which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The direct wetland impacts would adversely affect 142.5 acres. Compared to the operations outside the park, oil and gas proposals would require more time for approval and operate under a more restrictive regulatory system, increasing costs.

Preparation date: February 19, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FLATHEAD INDIAN RESERVATION FOREST MANAGEMENT PLAN; FLATHEAD, LAKE, AND MISSOULA COUNTIES, MONTANA. AN - 36412555; 7305 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a resource management plan for forest resources on tribal lands within the Flathead Indian Reservation, located in western Montana, is proposed. The reservation encompasses 1.3 million acres, of which 456,520 acres are forested. The Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes would revise and implement the 1996 Flathead Indian Reservation Draft Forest Management Plan. The new plan would take an interdisciplinary, ecosystem approach to forest management and seek to restore and maintain the long-term ecological integrity of the reservation's forests in a manner consistent with tribal values. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 4), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 2) would have as its primary goal balancing the restoration of pre-European forest conditions with the needs of sensitive species and human uses of the forest. The silvicultural treatments would be designed to reverse the effects of fire exclusion and undesirable forest practices of the past. Prescribed fire would be a major tool. The harvesting would mimic natural disturbances as much as possible; however, the restoration would be balanced against the present-day uses of the forest, the needs of sensitive wildlife species, and watershed concerns. Alternative 2 would have the second highest level of prescribed burning and the second greatest number of restoration acres. A total of 49,466 acres of grassland, woodland, and park-like stands would undergo restoration and maintenance treatments over the long term. The silvicultural treatments would be prioritized as follows: uneven-aged treatments; underburns; temporary even-aged treatments; and no treatment. Entry periods would be 10 to 20 years. An estimated 3,000 to 4,000 acres would undergo prescribed burning each year. Grazing management would focus on improving and maintaining biodiversity of existing grassland types. Noxious weeds would be aggressively managed on 80 percent of infested areas. Big game summer and winter range would be restored by reducing road densities and livestock impacts. Reducing the level of fragmentation in all fire regimes would receive high priority. Eighty percent of road sections that severely degrade aquatics would be abandoned. Seven roadless areas, covering 33,210 acres, would remain roadless, and timber harvest practices would emphasis reduction of visual impacts. Four areas, covering 26,969 acres, would be protected as wilderness. Trail and campsite maintenance would be emphasized. Limited public access areas would be established throughout the reservation to provide a variety of natural areas and recreational settings for cultural and recreational pursuits by tribe members. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would reduce livestock impacts, reduce road densities to improve big game and aquatic habitat effectiveness, protect some roadless areas from future road construction, designate some new wilderness, and restore some grasslands, woodlands, and watershed and riparian zones. The management plan would also visually rehabilitate areas heavily impacted by geometrically shaped clearcuts and establish limited public access areas. Bark beetle impacts would be reduced as would impacts associated with root rot, mistletoe, and budworm. Restoration activities would reduce the potential for wildfire. Approximately 80 percent of water pollution sources would be removed. Cutthroat trout would be restored to two drainages and bull trout to one. Hiding cover and large snag habitat would approximate pre-contact levels in the long term. Habitat for peregrine falcon, bald eagle, Rocky Mountain wolf, and grizzly bear, all threatened or endangered species, would meet federal requirements. Campsites and trails would be enhanced, winter recreational opportunities would be diversified, and the general recreational character of the affected area would improve. Road closures and limitation of public access would reduce potential impacts to cultural resource sites. The preferred management plan would support 4,400 direct and indirect jobs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The acres of young, open-canopied ponderosa pine and mature and old stands of Douglas fir would decline. Smoke emissions would increase due to increase in prescribed burning activity, resulting in localized decreases in air quality and visibility. The abandoned roads would result in loss of forage and access to forage over the long term as trees and shrubs reclaim the roadbed. Some habitat loss would be expected for white-tailed deer.

Preparation date: February 18, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SURFACE MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS FOR LOCATABLE MINERAL OPERATIONS. AN - 36421887; 7295 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a regulatory framework for surface management of locatable mineral operations on public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is proposed. Issues addressed include the definition of unnecessary or undue degradation, performance standards for operations and reclamation, definition of federal lands, the threshold for a notice or plan of operations, the definition of casual use, the notice and plan of operations processing and contents, state government coordination, claim validity and valid existing rights, common variety minerals, inspection and monitoring programs, the type and adequacy of penalties for noncompliance, reclamation bonding requirements, the appeals process, the definition of project area, and existing operations. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alernative 1), which would maintain existing regulations, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 3) would adopt recently proposed regulations at 43 CFR 3809. The major provisions of the regulations would include the selection of performance standards that all operations would have to meet for environmental protection, the replacement of the "prudent operator" standard in the current definition of unnecessary or undue degradation with a requirement to comply with the performance standards, the increase of bonding coverage to include notice-level activity and requiring bonding at 100 percent of reclamation costs, the extension of the regulations to include Stock Raising Homestead Act lands, the increase of inspections under some circumstances, the giving to states whose programs are at least as stringent as BLM requirements the lead to administer the surface management program when such states request the lead, and adjusting the "threshold" for casual use, notice-level operations, and filing plans of operations (an alternative threshold was also developed involving adopting the Forest Service approach, which determines the threshold between notice-level activity and plans on a case-by-case basis). Alternative 2 would delegate the responsibility for management of locatable mineral operations on public lands with the borders of each state to the appropriate state authorities. Alternative 4 would be designed to maximize environmental protection. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The regulatory framework would enhance the BLM's effectiveness and consistency in day-to-day implementation of the regulations in the field, ensure the protection of environmental protection during operations conducted under the pertinent legal mandates, ensure receipt of market value for common variety minerals, insure the validity of mining claims within areas closed to mining, and establish working relationships with state regulators, thereby reducing or eliminating duplication of mining plan review, bonding, and permitting. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The regulatory framework allowing mining activities could adversely affect minorities and disadvantaged persons, air quality, water resources, soils, vegetation, riparian-wetland resources, other aquatic resources, wildlife habitat, livestock grazing lands, special status areas, visual and other recreation resources, cave resources, cultural and paleontological resources, Native American resources, and social and economic conditions. Adverse impacts associated with hazardous materials and wastes management would also be associated with implementation of the framework.

AN - 36410958; 7294 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan to effectively serve visitor needs and to preserve, protect, and interpret the cultural and natural resources of the Stones River National Battlefield Park, located in central Tennessee, is proposed. The Stones River National Battlefield Park is located on the western edge of the city of Murfreesboro, approximately 30 miles southeast of Nashville. Significant battle actions occurred over 4,000 acres in the area of Murfreesboro over a three-day period from December 31, 1862 to January 2, 1863. The battle played a pivotal role in the Union's western campaign, which culminated in the March to the Sea. The park was established as a national military park and was transferred to the National Park Service in 1933. Presently, the park encompasses 709 acres, including 674 acres of the original battlefield. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 3), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative 1), the boundaries of the park would be increased to include a total of 1,471 acres, more than doubling the size of the park, in order to preserve the historic character of the battlefield. The visitor center would be renovated; a new and expanded interpretive media would be added; and a self-guided, 7.6-mile-long auto tour would be developed, with 12 interpretive stops so that visitors could view all six major battle action zones. The estimated construction costs are $6.3 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The doubling of the size of the park would help to preserve the historic character of the battlefield, preventing residential and commercial development from detracting from the park's historic significance. The proposed action would also provide a historic context in which to foster public understanding of military events and strategy and broader living conditions of the Murfreesboro area at the time of the Civil War. It would also promote the conservation of historic resources not currently in park ownership, make all units easily available and accessible to visitors, and interpret each site in its historic context. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction of the tour road would adversely affect the historic character and could disturb archaeological resources. Traffic would increase along tour routes due to increased visitation. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 100-205 and Public Law 102-225.

AN - 36402229; 7279 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a permit for the development of oil and gas resources within the Bisti/De-Na-Zin Wilderness, located in northwestern New Mexico, is proposed. The applicant, Speerex Limited, would drill 13 wells on two leases, lying 30 miles south of Farmington within the wilderness. The affected area contains a mix of unvegetated badlands and sparely vegetated grasslands near the head of Hunter Wash. There are very few photogenic hoodoos, or columns of rock, for which the former Bisti Wilderness section of the area is known, but petrified logs and dinosaur fossils are readily apparent to the casual eye. The view from the higher elevations of the project area is stunning. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would include the denial of the permit to drill the wells, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would include approximately 6.8 miles of road construction, the minimum amount necessary to access the well pads with drilling rigs until the wells were deemed capable of producing oil or gas. If the wells were economical, roads would be upgraded to the minimum level necessary and up to 8.2 miles of surface pipelines would be authorized. In addition, the proposed action would grant off- lease rights-of-way (ROW) totaling 8,137 feet. Under Alternative A, the Bureau of Land Management would approve the permit and deny the off-lease ROW. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The development activities would employ some local residents and otherwise contribute to the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: With the exception of 7,344 feet of existing road on federal surface within the wilderness (County Road 7250) that accesses the Hunter Wash Number 1 well drilled in 1991, the applicant's proposed project would represent new disturbance within the wilderness. The physical disturbance would adversely affect 23.4 acres, six acres of which are not vegetated, and 24,370 cubic yards (cy) of rock and soil. Alternative A would result in the disturbance of 21 acres, 7.5 acres of which are not vegetated and 13,010 cy of rock and soil. Regardless of the action alternative chosen, certain soil and topographic disturbances would constitute permanent adverse impacts. LEGAL MANDATES: Wilderness Act of 1964 (16 U.S.C. 1131 et seq.).

AN - 36423377; 7274 AB - PURPOSE: The designation as a component in the National Wild and Scenic River System of portions of the Squirrel River, located in Alaska, is proposed. The Squirrel River rises in the southern portion of the Baird Mountains in northwestern Alaska and flows south and then southeast 72 miles to the Kobuk River at Kiana, Alaska, which is located 60 air miles east of Kotzebue. The project area includes the main stem of the Squirrel River and five tributaries: the West Fork, the Headwaters Fork, the Home Route, the North Fork, and the Omar. The Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act of 1980 had designated the Squirrel River as a candidate for the wild and scenic river system, and since 1980, the river has been under protective management until its ultimate status was determined. Issues raised during the scoping process include limitations placed on subsistence uses of the river, increases in tourism, and restrictions on mining and other economic uses. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative D, the preferred alternative), are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative A would designate the Squirrel River, the West Fork, and the Headwaters Fork as a scenic river area. Alternative B would designate the Squirrel River, the West Fork, and the Home Route as a wild river area. Alternative C would designate the upper portion of the Squirrel River as a wild river, and the lower portion as a scenic river area. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative D, the No Action Alternative), the Squirrel River would be classed as not suitable for the designation as part of the wild and scenic river system. If Congress took no additional action, the protective management of the river would end in three years. Approximately 81,501 acres of community grant selections would become available for conveyance to the state of Alaska under this alternative. This alternative was designated the preferred alternative because of the remoteness of the area and limited human uses in the foreseeable future. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The non-designation would allow for management flexibility and the potential for the development of roads and cash economy in the area. The state of Alaska would have a greater role in the development and management of the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Unless protected by new state laws, subsistence activities would be minimized in future land management scenarios. Economic development could adversely affect the wild and primitive character of the area.

AN - 36417870; 7275 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan for management natural and cultural resources and visitor use within the Little River Canyon National Preserve, located in northeastern Alabama, is proposed. The preserve was established in 1992 to preserve the area's natural, scenic, recreational, and cultural resources and to provide for public enjoyment of those resources. A 14,000-acre area was to be set aside from lands owned by the state, Cherokee County, and Alabama Power Company. Issues addressed include those associated with water resources, fish and wildlife habitat, vegetation, cultural resources, the visitor experience, and local community concerns. Desired future conditions, or goals, for resources and the visitor experience are presented in the proposed action, followed by general implementation strategies. The desired conditions include protecting the area's natural attributes and values while improving the visitor experience through greater educational efforts and providing safe and convenient facilities. While visitor use would be managed to achieve desired conditions, no substantial change in visitor use patterns would be effected. An increase in staffing would be included in the proposal. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would perpetuate the current management regime, is considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would provide management direction for three distinct areas within the preserve, namely, the canyon, the developed areas around the canyon, and the forested uplands north of the canyon. The canyon would remain as natural as possible, visitation only being allowed by foot or via float craft. The developed areas would provide the means for most visitors to enjoy the scenic views and simple activities such as picnicking. The forested uplands would provide a variety of recreational opportunities. With the possible exception of a small maintenance facility, the only development contemplated would involve the rehabilitation or improvement of certain traditional recreational sites. More information for visitor understanding and appreciation would be provided. The quality and diversity of the preserve's resources would be determined through comprehensive inventories and maintained through proactive management. The improvements would be undertaken where practical. The effective implementation of the proposal would require additional staffing and a maximum of $365,000 added to the preserves operating base. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would increase the knowledge and protection of the preserve's resources and enhance the public's appreciation of the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The No Action Alternative would likely result in the continued deterioration of the resources available within the preserve. The ground disturbance due to facilities improvements under the proposed alternative would result in short-term erosion and sedimentation of receiving waters, but these impacts would not be significant.

AN - 16346909; 7273 AB - PURPOSE: The adoption of statewide standards for 13.5 million acres of public land health and guidelines for grazing management on lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in New Mexico is proposed. The standards would describe the conditions needed for healthy sustainable public rangeland and related to all uses of public lands. The standards and guidelines were developed in partnership with a statewide Resource Advisory Council (RAC) and with other public input. Four alternatives, including the No Action Alternative, which would perpetuate the present management regime, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (Alternative 2) would involve the adoption of the standards and guidelines developed by the RAC. The RAC alternative is also the BLM's preferred alternative. The state authorities' preferred alternative (Alternative 3) would involve the adoption of the standards and guidelines developed by the New Mexico/Arizona Coalition of Counties. Alternative 4 would involve the implementation of fallback standards and guidelines defined in BLM's grazing regulations. Of the 2,193 grazing allotments, it is projected that 287 to 480 allotments would not meet the standards, depending on the alternative considered. The majority of the sub-standard allotments would have to be adjusted with respect to management of their livestock to some extent. The most common management adjustment would involve a deferment from grazing period or a change in the season of use. In a few cases, a reduction in livestock numbers would be required; however, large-scale reductions in numbers of livestock would not be expected under any alternative due to the fact that adjustments have been made over time through the BLM Rangeland Monitoring Program. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Long-term livestock use would increase as rangeland improved in health and forage production increases under any alternative. The RAC alternative would blend human, physical, and biological goals and values, while providing a separate standard for human goals and values. This alternative would also provide the most positive economic return to livestock permittees over the long term. Under the RAC alternative, 52 of the 112 riparian segments classified as nonfunctional or functional at risk would improve. Soils, water, grazing administration, wild horse range, big game habitat, waterfowl habitat, habitat for special status species and other wildlife habitat would be enhanced. Damage to cultural and paleontological resources due to erosion would decline. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: While livestock numbers would decrease on some allotments, the statewide numbers would be expected to remain at approximately the average over the past 10 years for all alternatives. Some ranchers would suffer economically due to the imposition of provisions of the standards. The restrictions on off-highway- vehicle use would place some limitations on recreationists.

AN - 16347980; 7269 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan for future use and operation of the Contra Loma Reservoir, located in western California, is proposed. The Contra Costa Water District (CCWD) would comply with a California State Department of Health Services order that requires that the recreational body contact activities in the reservoir cease or that CCWD stop using the reservoir for domestic water supply storage. Major issues include those related to water resources and quality, recreation, visual resources, cultural resources, land use, public health, transportation, air quality, noise, energy, socioeconomics, fisheries, vegetation, wildlife, and geology, seismicity, and soils. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative and a No-Project Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would permanently stop body contact activities in the reservoir in September 1999 and replace certain recreational uses by constructing a swimming lagoon within the existing reservoir footprint. A concrete-covered earthen berm would physically separate the lagoon from the main portion of the 80-acre reservoir. Water in the lagoon would be pumped, filtered, and treated to appropriate water quality standards for recreational use. This would allow existing drinking water and swimming uses to continue at the reservoir. The other alternatives would include ceasing the use of the reservoir for drinking water supply and the use of the reservoir for body contact activities, the construction of a water treatment plant and conveyance system (pipeline and pump station) to enable continued use of the reservoir for both purposes, and the provision of a connection between the East Bay Municipal Utility District's Mokelumne Aqueduct and the CCWD conveyance system so that water could be used as available from EBMUD, allowing the reservoir to cease to be used as a means of supplying potable water. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would enable CCWD to continue using the reservoir for its historic domestic water supply purposes, including the use of the reservoir for meeting peaking requirements and the use for system reliability during shutdowns and other emergencies. Drinking water supplies and the health of swimmers would be safeguarded. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would lie within a seismically active area, which is also characterized by high shrink and swell potential that could result in subsidence. Body contact recreational opportunities at the reservoir site would decline significantly. The construction activities would result in the disturbance of wetlands, vegetation, and associated wildlife habitat, including habitat for special-status species, and could result in the disturbance of culturally significant sites. Facility maintenance requirements would increase. The swimming lagoon could result in a small change in the size and number of standing waves that could form in the reservoir in the event of a seiche.

AN - 36421920; 7268 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of a plan for fish and wildlife protection measures and the reliability of water supply for irrigation in the Yakima River Basin, located in southern Washington, is proposed. The Yakima River, a tributary of the Columbia River, drains an area of about 6,000 square miles, extending 200 miles from the eastern slopes of the central Cascade Mountains southeast to its confluence with the Columbia River near Richland, Washington. The Yakima River and its tributaries support three hydropower projects, six federal reservoirs, five major diversion dams, various irrigation canals and pumping plants, fish and wildlife ecosystems, drinking water, and recreation. The first phase of a river basin enhancement program was implemented in 1982; activities included the construction of fish passage and protective facilities. Phase two of the program was never implemented pending resolution of the Yakima Indian Nation's water claims. Phase two would consist of a Basin Conservation Program designed to reduce water diversions and increase the amount of water available for irrigation. The program would involve the preparation of water conservation plans, the testing of the feasibility of water conservation measures, and the implementation of those measures considered feasible. In-stream target flows would be increased by 50 cubic feet per second for each 27,000 acre-feet of reduced annual water diversion achieved through the conservation program. An irrigation demonstration project for the Yakima Indian Nation would be implemented, and existing irrigation canals would be lined and piping would be upgraded. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative 1 would implement all programs, except the Basin Conservation Program. Alternative 2, which considers three subalternatives, would implement all programs. Alternative 3 would implement all programs except the plan to augment Kachess Lake from the flows of Cabin Creek and Silver Creek. Alternative 2A, which would implement all programs plus a 7.5-percent basin-wide reduction in diversion demands except for the Wapato Irrigation Project and the Yakima-Tieton Canal, has been identified as the preferred alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Any one of the action alternatives would improve water supply in the Yakima River Basin and thereby benefit salmon, steelhead, and other fish. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under Alternative 2 and Alternative 3, groundwater levels would be lowered and aquifers would receive less recharge. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 103-434.

Preparation date: January 20, 1999 N1 - Last updated - 2014-01-30 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - YANKEE GULCH SODIUM MINERALS PROJECT, AMERICAN SODA, LLP, WHITE RIVER RESOURCE AREA, MEEKER, RIO BLANCO COUNTY, COLORADO. AN - 16347894; 7256 AB - PURPOSE: The development and operation of a commercial nahcolite solution mining operation at a site near Meeker, along with associated processing facilities to be located at a site near Parachute, located in northwestern Colorado, are proposed. The project proponent, America Soda, LLP, would develop the mining operation involving vertical solution mining wells to extract bedded and disseminated nahcolite. The principal products to be produced would include sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and sodium carbonate (soda ash). The Yankee Gulch Sodium Minerals Project, as the project would be known, would be implemented at the Piceance Site located on the Yankee Gulch Joint Venture Leases within the White River Resource Area, administered by the Bureau of Land Management. The processing facilities at the Parachute site would involve the modification and refurbishing of an existing, inactive industrial site at the Unocal Shale Oil Upgrade Facility. A 44-mile corridor that would contain a product pipeline running from the Piceance site near Meeker to the Parachute site as well as a parallel return water pipeline would connect the two sites. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 3), are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (the preferred alternative, Alternative 1) would involve the development of a mining program for the first 30 years of operation on approximately 1,030 acres within the Yankee Gulch Lease area. The initial recovery design basis would be 1.4 million tons per year (tpy) of nahcolite. Approximately 15 wells would be developed each year after the initial startup period. The Accelerated Development Alternative (Alternative 2) would increase the production levels to 4.9 million tpy of nahcolite using the same mining panels as the proposed alternative. Under Alternative 2, approximately 45 wells would be developed each year after the startup period, and the life of the project would be shortened to approximately ten years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The products generated by the project would contribute to the supply materials necessary for the manufacture of effervescent salts and beverages, baking powder, sodium salts, pharmaceuticals, cleaning preparation, laboratory reagents, antacids, glass, chemicals, pulp and paper, soaps and detergents, water treatment products, cleaning preparations, and many other products. Strong positive socioeconomic effects would be generated by worker salaries, per diem payments, and local purchases of equipment and supplies. The project would contribute substantially to local state, and federal revenues. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would result in subsidence of up to one to three feet, which would occur over a geologic timescale. The proposed action would disturb approximately 1,098 acres of soils, including approximately 129 acres occupied by permanent facilities, 486 acres disturbed during construction, and 483 acres in mine panels, which would be developed in five-year increments. Approximately 1,546 acres of vegetation, including 553 acres of mule dear habitat, would be removed or disturbed during the construction and operations, but the disturbed areas would be reclaimed. Mule deer would also be displaced from areas of human activity during the life of the project. Much of the soil impacts would adversely affect soils considered fragile due to shallow depths, susceptibility to erosion, or steep slopes. The accidental release of production fluids or the migration of poorer water from the lower aquifer to the upper aquifer could adversely affect groundwater quality, and the alluvial aquifer could be degraded in the event of a liner failure at the evaporation ponds. The project activities would increase emissions of fugitive dust, particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and carbon monoxide, though federal standards would not be violated. The pipeline construction would cause short-term modifications of soils and vegetation at three wetland sites and short-term disruption to farming operations, including irrigation activities. Birds could be attracted to and injured or killed at the saline evaporation ponds. Nineteen potentially significant prehistoric sites lying within the Piceance site could be adversely affected by construction and operation activities. The reduction in deer numbers would adversely affect hunting opportunities. The project facilities would substantially and adversely alter the physical appearance of the affected sites. The influx of workers and their families would place stress on some local schools and housing facilities. The project activities could result in accidental spills of hazardous materials and the ignition of wildfires.

AN - 62405884; ED440038 AB - Few places in the west are as evocative of the tragic story of the Indian Wars as Big Hole (Montana) National Battlefield. The site memorializes the bravery of the Nez Perce and U.S. soldiers and volunteers who fought there during the epic flight of the Nez Perce in 1877. Big Hole preserves the scene of one of the most famous battles of the Indian Wars. This administrative history is divided into chronological chapters, with each chapter divided into topical sections and subsections. A chronological organization highlights two salient themes in Big Hole National Battlefield's administrative development: (1) its long evolution as a small unit assigned to a succession of federal agencies (the War Department, the Forest Service, and the National Park Service); and (2) the close connection that exists between its land base, interpretive (education) program, and resource management. Chapters are: (1) "The Battle and Its Aftermath (1877-1883)"; (2) "Administration under the U.S. Department of War (1883-1910)"; (3) "Administration under the U.S. Forest Service (1910-1936)"; (4) "Administration under Yellowstone National Park, Early Years (1936-1956)"; (5) "Administration under Yellowstone National Park, Later Years (1956-1977)"; (6) "Administration under the Rocky Mountain Regional Office (1977-1987)"; and (7) "Administration under Other Small Units (1987-1997)." An appendix contains laws and executive orders. (Contains 82 references and 458 chapter notes.)

The thematic skills included are: Arizona history; social studies; environmental science; multicultural education; art; critical thinking; mathematics computation; and drama. The units can be taught individually, but if used sequentially they will give the students a solid background on the cultural and environmental impacts the various cultures had on each other and on the Santa Cruz Valley. Each unit is composed of three sections: historical (covers the people, their history and culture); environmental (pertains to the natural environment, biological and natural sciences); and tying it together (deals with how the environment affected the people and how the people affected the environment). Each of the three sections contains one or more activities, resources, references, background information, and a vocabulary list. Extra materials such as readings, worksheets, or visual aids are given at the end of each section and are to be used in the actual teaching of the lesson.

The lesson is based on the National Register of Historic Places registration file, "USS Arizona Wreck", and other materials from the park. It could be used in U.S. history units on World War II or in courses dealing more generally with war and conflict. Students will better understand the logistics of the Japanese attack, the Arizona's destruction, and the significance of the Memorial to the people of the United States. The lesson is divided into the following teaching activities sections: "Setting the Stage":"Historical Context"; "Locating the Site": "Maps" (Hawaii and Japan; the Island of Oahu; Pearl Harbor); "Determining the Facts: Readings" (The Attack on Pearl Harbor; The USS Arizona Memorial); "Determining the Facts: Charts" (December 7, 1941, Losses; Brothers Aboard the USS Arizona, Dec. 7, 1941); "Visual Evidence: Images" (The USS Arizona Setting Out from New York, 1918; USS Arizona Burns and Sinks, Dec. 7, 1941; Aerial and Interior Views of the USS Arizona Memorial; Aerial View of Pearl Harbor Today); and "Putting It All Together: Activities" (Pearl Harbor and the Casualties of War; Comparing Textbook Accounts; Survivors of War; Examining War Materials). Contains a list of supplementary Web site resources.

Teaching with Historic Places. AN - 62386894; ED439045 AB - This lesson provides a case study about a U.S. immigrant community of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and offers a contrast to the typical textbook coverage which emphasizes immigration from eastern and southern Europe to the big cities of the northern United States. The lesson focuses on Ybor City (now part of Tampa, Florida); it was a multi-ethnic, multi-racial industrial community in the Deep South, a section that traditionally had little industry and few immigrants. Explaining that the popularity of Cuban cigars in the United States combined with a high tariff on cigar imports led some Cuban cigar factory owners to move their factories to Florida and other parts of the United States, the lesson delineates the community of Ybor City with its Cuban immigrant life during the 1890s. Spaniards, Italians, Germans, and Romanian Jews also worked in the industry. The lesson is divided into the following sections which include maps, readings, photographs, and activities: (1) "Florida and Cuba"; (2) "The History of Ybor City"; (3) "Ybor City's Cigar Workers/Cigar Manufacturing Details"; (4) "Ybor City, Jose Marti, and the Spanish-American War"; (5) "Ybor Cigar Factory, c. 1886-90"; (6) "Cigar Workers' Houses"; (7) "Cigar Factory Workers at Ybor Factory, 1925"; (8) "L'Unione Italiana, 1919"; (9) "Circulo Cubano, 1926"; (10) "Centro Asturiano, 1925"; (11) "Evening Festivities at Centro Asturiano, 1920s"; (12) "Describing Ybor City"; (13) "The Immigrant Experience"; and (14) "Local Community History."

Teaching with Historic Places. AN - 62386860; ED439053 AB - This lesson is based on the National Register of Historic Places registration file "Glen Echo Amusement Park," park planning documents, and newspaper and magazine accounts. The lesson can be used in U.S. history units on the Gilded Age and the Progressive Era to explore religious and educational reform movements (including the Chautauqua movement), and the impact of improved transportation systems on settlement patterns. The lesson also explores the issue of public segregation. Objectives for the students include: (1) to describe the national social trends and technological improvements that influenced the settlement and continued use of the Glen Echo (Maryland) area; (2) to explain the social and economic needs Glen Echo Park was designed to serve; (3) to identify present or past gathering places in their own community, and to identify factors that have contributed to the continued use or the destruction of those places; and (4) to determine the effect of segregation and discrimination on their own community.

AN - 36412738; 7271 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of oil and gas leasing and development plans within the 568,000 million acres of public land in the Glenwood Springs Resource Area (GSRA) and the Naval Oil Shale Reserves (NOSR), located in west-central Colorado, is proposed. The land under consideration extends from Edwards to DeBeque and from Aspen to Toponas. This final supplement to the final EIS continues the assessment process last addressed by the final EIS on oil and gas leasing and development in the Glenwood Springs, Kremmling, Little Snake, and Northeast resource areas and a portion of the Royal Gorge Resource area (referred to as the Northeast Planning Area), and San Juan Resource Area and a portion of the Uncompahgre Basin Resource Area (referred to as the San Juan/San Miguel Planning Area). When the final EIS was prepared, only limited oil and gas development had occurred in the GSRA. However, the level of development began to increase soon after that time; this activity was concentrated in a relative small area within the Interstate 70 (I-70) corridor from Silt to Parachute. As many as 25 wells per year have been approved on federal lands and federally- owned mineral estate under private lands in this area in recent years and a high level of development is expected to continue into the future. Under the reasonable foreseeable development scenario, it is estimated that 1,200 wells could be developed in the area over the next 20 years, 300 of which would involve federal mineral estates and 70 of which would lie within the NOSR. While the supplement was being prepared, Congress passed the Department of Defense Authorization Act of 1998 which, inter alia, called for transfer of all 56,000 acres of NOSR near Rifle, Colorado, from the Department of Energy to the Department of the Interior and for leasing of oil and gas reserves in the developed portion of the NOSR. As the physical nature of the NOSR is similar to that of the GSRA, it was decided to include this land in the impact analyses. Issues addressed include those associated with lease rights, reclamation and soils, riparian communities, wildlife, visual resources, socioeconomics, quality of life, air quality, groundwater, radioactive contamination from explosion of a kiloton nuclear device near Parachute in 1969 (Project Rulison), transportation systems, and hazardous materials. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final supplement to the final EIS of January 1991. The preferred alternative would involve the identification and protection of wildlife seclusion areas and recreation management areas for non-motorized recreation, the increased protection for the most visually-sensitive slopes within the I-70 viewshed, the establishment of controlled-surface-use (CSU) stipulations affecting lands within 500 feet of any riparian area, the reduction of the slope protected by CSU provisions from 40 to 30 percent, the establishment of no-surface-occupancy stipulations to protect slopes over 50 percent, and the establishment of a lease notice directing operators regarding the implementation of habitat mitigation projects. In addition, the supplement documents a protocol for managing operations under existing leases which would call for more comprehensive planning within a lease area. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The leasing and development would help assure a continued supply of oil and natural gas to meet the growing national needs for these energy sources. The development of the leases would provide jobs and otherwise support the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 34 percent of the 3,525 acres of riparian lands in the lease development area could be adversely affected over the 20-year planning period. Added to current levels of impact, more than 70 percent of the riparian areas could ultimately be adversely affected. Elk and mule deer habitat would be adversely affected. The development of 1,200 wells would disturb 1,020 acres of public land and 3,060 acres of private land, resulting in erosion and sedimentation of receiving waters, and result in structures that would significantly and adversely affect the visual appearance of the I-70 corridor and significantly increase traffic and noise in the area. The preferred alternative would result in loss of five well sites, potentially producing 7.5 billion cubic feet of natural gas. LEGAL MANDATES: Department of Defense Authorization Act of 1998 (P.L. 105-85), Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.), and Mineral Leasing Act of 1920 (P.L. 94-377).

Sites on six creeks or drains and one lake that carried drain water from lands irrigated by the North Platte Project area were selected for the investigation in addition to sites upstream and downstream from the Project area. In the early spring and summer of 1995, samples of surface water, bottom sediment, fish, and vegetation were collected. Water samples were analyzed for field parameters and trace elements; and bottom sediment, fish, and vegetation samples were analyzed for trace elements and selected organochlorine compounds.

The new format is based upon a Geographic Information System (GIS) user interface that allows the user to view map locations of the hydrologic monitoring stations and networks within their respective basins. Several methods are provided for users to easily search for and retrieve data on stations. Graphical summaries of the current water year and selected historical data for selected continuous streamflow stations illustrate seasonal and annual stream characteristics. Users can view or print site information and data tables in the traditional paper report format, or download data for use with other applications. The data sets contained on this CD-ROM include the stage and streamflow (discharge) of all continuous and non- continuous record gaging stations for Water Year 1999. All continuous water-quality monitoring data sets also are included. Discrete water-quality and ground-water data sampling sites are shown as network data layers; however, no measurement data are included on this CD-ROM. JF - Water Data Report.

A numerical ground-water flow model of the Kona area was used to refine the conceptual framework and to estiamte the effects of different withdrawal scenarios on regional ground-water levels and ground-water discharge. The numerical model used data from the period 1991 through 1993 to estimate hydraulic properties of the volcanic rocks. Average ground-water withdrawals for 1997 and estimated long-term average natural recharge were used in the model to simulate ground-water levels and discharge, which in turn were used as the base to computed simulated water-level drawdown and change in freshwater coastal discharge for three withdrawal scenarios.

Surface water quality has greatly improved in the last 30 yr as a result of improved municipal and industrial wastewater treatment but some problems remain. Industrial and municipal discharges, combined sewer overflows, hydrologic modifications from dams and water diversions, and urban runoff were major causes of water quality degradation in 1998. VOCs, petroleum-related products, nitrates, chloride, and sodium were the most frequently detected contaminants in groundwater. Elevated mercury concentrations are found in fish tissue from streams and lakes throughout the study area.

USGS analysis of nearly 100 yr of sea level data revealed that the high sea levels were the direct result of the El Nino atmospheric phenomenon.

Illustrative case histories are compiled to explore the role of underground water in human-induced land subsidence. Groundwater extraction and drainage play major roles in land subsidence by causing the compaction of susceptible aquifer systems and the dewatering of organic soils. Three basic mechanisms by which human influence in groundwater result in land subsidence are covered: compaction of aquifer systems, dewatering of organic soils, and mass wasting through dissolution and collapse of susceptible earth materials. The contributions of science and water management policy to subsidence damage mitigation are also considered.

Regional lithology and groundwater movement are described. The long-term estimate of recharge for predevelopment conditions is about 6556 cfs and for current conditions is about 10,205 cfs. Groundwater pumpage in the study area was about 56,000 acre-ft in 1945 and increased to a peak of 940,000 acre-ft in 1979, and about 85-90% of the pumped water was used to irrigate almost 500,000 acres. Simulation of long-term changes in the regional flow system resulting from continuation of current water development practices shows the overburden aquifer to be unaffected while basalt aquifers would experience declines of less than 200 ft.

A significant source of water to the river was not accounted for by surface water inputs monitored during 1991-93 and was consistent with direct discharge of groundwater to the main-stem river channel. Groundwater in the basin is naturally enriched with P, and while wastewater treatment efficiency and land management practice gains have reduced nutrient levels in the river, P concentrations continue to exceed state total maximum daily load criteria. Natural nitrogen sources are negligible relative to inputs from wastewater discharges, pointing to the need for more efficient wastewater treatment to control ammonia levels.

This pumping caused saltwater intrusion and water quality deterioration, leading to the cessation of pumping for public supply in Kings County in 1947 and western Queens County in 1974. Groundwater levels have recovered steadily and the saltwater has partly dispersed and become diluted. Intensive pumping for industrial and public supply, paving of large land areas, and installation of a large network of combined sewers in Long Island, NY, have also altered groundwater budgets in Nassau County. Trends in groundwater quality and water table profiles in the study areas are reported.

The 13-layer model was calibrated by comparing simulated with expected hydrologic conditions. The discharge of wells pumping from unconfined outwash aquifers on the drift plains is derived almost entirely from capture of natural discharge to nearby stream reaches. Increasing the lateral distance between the well and stream caused more of the well discharge to be captured from other streams. Increased well density caused greater water level decline locally but, at equilibrium, did not influence the extent of the area affected by natural discharge reduction to streams and springs.

AN - 36414976; 7239 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of measures related to water service contracts with respect to the Central Valley Project (CVP), located in north-central California, is proposed. The Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) would enter into water service contracts with the Sacramento County Water Agency (SCWA), the City of Folsom, and the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), and Reclamation would take separate actions with respect to water taken from the American River and the Sacramento River. These separate actions would include the SCWA and Folsom entering into a subcontract by which a portion of the SCWA's entitlement under its contract would be available to Folsom; the SWRCB amending Reclamation's water rights permit to expand the place of use within Sacramento County and to add points of diversion on the American and Sacramento rivers; and Reclamation installation and operating a temperature control device (TCD) on the water supply intake at Folsom Dam. Public Law 101-514 directs Reclamation to enter into long-term municipal and industrial water supply contracts to meet the immediate water needs of Sacramento County. The law directs the Secretary of the Interior to enter into contracts with SCWA for up to 22,000 acre-feet annually and with the San Juan Water District for up to 13,000 annually. From its allocation, the Agency intends to deliver up to 7,000 acre-feet to the City of Folsom. This final EIS describes the environmental impacts of diverting the contract water from Folsom Reservoir, from the confluence of the American River and the Sacramento River, and from the Sacramento River at Freeport as well as the impacts of delivering the water. In the EIS analysis, emphasis placed on impacts to American River fisheries, endangered species, CVP water and power customers, and biological resources in the service areas. The proposed action would include a Folsom Reservoir coldwater pool management mitigation scheme, together with the TCD to provide optimal management for cold water in the reservoir to the benefit of lower American River salmonid resources. The preferred alternative would involve the diversion of water from the Sacramento River at either the Sacramento River Water Treatment Plant (SRWTP) or at a new plant near the town of Freeport. It would include the implementation of an interconnection or jointly shared diversion capacity between the City of Folsom and other entities downstream of Folsom Dam and Reservoir, with diversions taking place from the Sacramento River at either the SRWTP or the new Freeport plant. It would also include the joint sharing of diversion capacity by SJWD and entities downstream of the Folsom Dam and Reservoir, with diversions from the Sacramento at the SRWTP. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Water diverted under the contracts would serve municipal and industrial needs in Sacramento County. The diversion plans and related mitigation measures would assure maintenance of the ecological integrity of the American River and the Sacramento River, particularly with respect to salmonid resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The diversion of water and dam operations would adversely affect fish habitat, other aquatic resources, and recreational uses within the affected reservoirs and rivers. Nearshore vegetation would be adversely affected as well. The diversion structures and/or diversion of water could adversely affect hydroelectric power supplies and flood control regimes. The potential decreases of freshwater water delivered to delta could increase salinity levels in the affected areas. The changes in hydrologic regimes could result in damage to cultural resources. The land use changes due to facility construction and use could adversely affect urban development and agricultural lands. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 101-514.

AN - 36407236; 7229 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a resource management plan for 792,567 acres of public land within the Challis Resource Area of the Upper Columbus-Salmon Clearwater Districts, located in central Idaho, is proposed. Major issues addressed include those related to range management, water resources, land tenure and access, and special management areas (including areas of critical environmental concern (ACECs) and rivers eligible for wild and scenic status). Other affected resources addressed include those associated with air quality, biological diversity, cultural resources, socioeconomics of Fort Hall Indian Reservation and Custer and Lemhi counties, fire management, fisheries, forest resources, hazardous materials, minerals, paleontological resources, recreational opportunities, soils, transportation, tribal treaty rights, vegetation, water resources, wilderness areas, wild horse and burros, and other wildlife. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. As compared to the originally proposed alternative, the preferred alternative would limit off-highway vehicle use to existing roads, vehicle ways, and trails throughout the resource area; clarify numerous decisions to improve the ability to implement effective management to address resource concerns and improve resource conditions; and incorporate an emphasis on integrated resource activity planning and watershed assessment to ensure that individual project proposals are considered within the context of broader landscapes. The plan, which would guide management of the area for 15 to 20 years, would address improvement of resource conditions while providing for consumptive resource uses such as timber harvest, mineral exploration and development, and livestock grazing. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The management plan would maintain resource values already in good condition with respect to air quality, visual quality, unique resource values on approximately 14,290 acres of ACECs, primitive values in suitable portions of the Jerry Peak and Burnt Creek wilderness study areas, and wild horse populations. The protection levels would be increased with respect to cultural and paleontological resources, biological diversity, special status species, visual resources, unique resource values on about 73,916 acres of new ACECs, and wild and scenic river values on 15 segments of river corridor. The resource conditions would be improved within riparian and aquatic habitats, with resulting benefits to water quality, fisheries, and other riparian wildlife species. The availability and quality of trust resources of importance to federally recognized tribes would improve, and the economy of social life of the Fort Hall Indian Reservation could be positively affected by increased opportunity for tribal members to use available resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The off-highway-vehicle limitations would eliminate off-road vehicle access throughout the area. The management provisions could reduce estimated annual livestock use by up to 25 percent depending on permittees' efforts to manage livestock use and distribution. The restrictions on mineral materials sales could limit the availability of new, easily accessible and low-cost material sites to meet public demand. The cultural resource losses, disturbance, and damage could still occur in localized areas due to unauthorized collection and vandalism or land sales and transfers and resulting surface disturbances. Some activities would result in loss of soil. The primitive values could decline in some portions of wilderness study areas released from wilderness review.

Preparation date: December 11, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WHITE HOUSE AND PRESIDENT'S PARK COMPREHENSIVE DESIGN PLAN, WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. AN - 36417523; 7217 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a comprehensive design plan for the White House and President's Park in the District of Columbia is proposed. The plan would provide a framework for future management that would respect the history and traditions of the White House. A comprehensive plan is needed because most problems over the last 200 years have been addressed as they have arisen, or not at all, resulting in a piecemeal approach to implementing solutions. Moreover, problems occurring outside the area, such as those associated with surrounding land uses and traffic, are affecting the site, threatening its dignity and character. The issues guiding the development of the plan include those associated with the fact that the White House will continue to serve as the executive residence and office of the president, the safety and security for the president and first family, the access to the White House by the general public, First Amendment provisions, and the dignity, significance, and history of the site and the presidency. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would continue current management practices, are considered in the draft EIS. The proposed plan would emphasize a pedestrian-oriented experience within President's Park, with no surface parking and limited vehicular access. To accommodate the changing functions of the Executive Office of the President and to make daily operations more efficient, facilities would be provided onsite for meetings and conferences, staff parking, deliveries, storage of frequently used items, first family indoor recreational activities, and the news media. These facilities would be provided below ground to limit new surface intrusions. The White House visitor center in the Commerce Building would be expanded to provide a full range of visitor services, including a museum function. No commercial vending or food concessions would be allowed on sidewalks or adjacent curb lanes within President's Park in order to maintain the dignity and character of the site. Criteria would be established for special events (other than First Amendment activities) that would be allowed within President's Park. A permanent events plaza with utilities would be developed in the northeast quadrant of the Ellipse to reduce impacts on turf and adjacent resources caused by large-scale events. Other alternatives considered would address management needs in various ways, ranging from accommodating all major support operations and facilities within the White House compels and President's Park to decentralizing and moving functions to adjacent areas. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Significant cultural landscape elements, including historical views, would be protected, along with archaeological resources, historic buildings and structures, and the White House fine and decorative arts collection. Additional privacy and facilities would be provided for the first family. For staff, official visitors, and the news media, new and improved facilities would allow functions related to the Executive Office of the President to be conducted more efficiently without intruding on the dignity and appearance of the site. Additional interpretive programs and museum exhibits would enhance opportunities for visitors from the general public. In general, site operation and management would be improved. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Factors such as the high water table in the area, the presence of nationally significant historic resources, and potential for archaeological resources, and the presidential commemorative plantings would have implications for new construction. Local traffic patterns would be adversely affected somewhat by various alternatives for the use of E Street, though a long-term solution to traffic congestion in the core area would be developed in cooperation with District of Columbia transportation agencies. Local vendors would be adversely affected by the removal of vending spaces along sidewalks and adjacent curb lanes. LEGAL MANDATES: Act of August 15, 1916 (39 Stat. 535) and Public Law 87-286.

Results from testing a barnyard and cropland model indicate that application of simulation data would markedly change previous estimates of how much P is derived from each land classification. To adjust the model load estimates for the study site, P load from the barnyard model should be doubled and sediment load from the cropland model should be halved. Application of the corrections increased the relative importance of barnyards as P sources.

AN - 16360484; 7210 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan to replenish by the Orange County Water District (OCWD) and Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) groundwater, located in southwestern California, is proposed. The proposed action would reduce the county's dependence on outside water supplies. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed project, which would include two options including a preferred option, would involve repurifying water from the OCSD. Some of this water would be pumped to spreading basins where the water would percolate into the groundwater basin. The water would later be pumped from the basin for use in irrigation and industrial processes. Some of the water would be used to bolster a saltwater intrusion barrier. At full buildout, 120,000 acre-feet of water could be produced each year; phase one and two would produce 65,000 acre-feet and 95,000 acre-feet, respectively. The system would consist of a network of facilities that treat and distribute the purified product water based upon varying seasonal conditions and needs. System implementation would require construction of additional advanced water treatment facilities at the OCWD/OCSD complex, including membrane and reverse osmosis filtration units, disinfection facilities, laboratory and visitor center space, storage and maintenance areas, and two pump stations. Some of the existing facilities, which are part of the operating Water Factory 21 seawater intrusion barrier system, would be retained or upgraded as part of the project; others would be replaced by new facilities. Water not diverted to the seawater intrusion barrier would be transported via a new 78-inch major conveyance pipeline approximately 14 miles to the existing Kraemer Spreading Basin located in the city of Anaheim, where it would percolate into the groundwater basin. The expanded and refurbished seawater intrusion barrier would inject product water from the groundwater replenishment system into the ground via new supply pipe and injection wells located under streets within the cities of Fountain Valley, Huntington Beach, and Costa Mesa. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would divert water to useful purposes that otherwise would be simply dumped into the Pacific Ocean. The additional water would assist in providing water to support approved development and forecast population growth consistent with the land use plans of the jurisdictions within the OCWD service area. Groundwater quality would be enhanced. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activities would generate additional traffic and result in emissions of noise and air pollutants. Recreational areas would be disturbed, and areas containing contaminated soils and cultural resources could be adversely affected.

AN - 36417602; 7205 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park, located in New Orleans in southeastern Louisiana, is proposed. The temporary administrative headquarters for the park are located on Canal Street in downtown New Orleans. For all practical purposes, the essence of the park encompasses the greater metropolitan New Orleans area. The park seeks to preserve jazz resources and disseminate information about the history, development, and progression of jazz and its many contributions for societies locally, regionally, nationally, and around the world. The alternatives are based on park purpose, significance, management goals, and visitor use goals. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative B would emphasize conveying the park's interpretive story through such personal programs as interpretive talks and demonstrations, interpreted and other performances, and seminars. Educational activities would be given maximum priority, and the park would be allowed to assist in the adaptive use of structures related to jazz. Interpretive programming would depend heavily on the involvement of local musicians and educators. The visitor center would be located at the Old US Mint. Under the proposed alternative (Alternative C), the management regime would emphasize a strong partnership program between the National Park Service (NPS) and other entities involved in preserving the New Orleans jazz tradition. The NPS would provide funding for basic park operations and work intensively with others to develop partnerships and alternative funding sources for interpretation, visitor use and experiences, and other activities focusing on preserving the jazz tradition. The extent and success of this alternative would depend on substantial support from partners, particularly those in the private sector. Interpretation media would be extensively used, and the size and scope of park education and preservation programs would be guided by development of partnerships. The visitor center would, at least initially, be located at a complex in Louis Armstrong Park. The implementation of the alternatively would be in gradual phases, requiring years to complete. The estimated costs for removal and rehabilitation of the structures under the preferred alternative are $3.2 million and $4.2 million, respectively. The estimated planning, design, and construction costs for interpretive materials and displays are $2.1 million. The estimated costs for partners are $6.8 million. The estimated annual costs for contract fees paid to musicians are $274,200. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Either action alternative would provide better protection to jazz-related resources than the current management direction (Alternative A). If it were successful, the proposed action would achieve the broadest level of interpretation and visitor services and provide the optimum opportunity for high-quality visitor experiences. The employment resulting from park operations, the construction of facilities, and the spin-off tourism would enhance the local economy as would the partnerships and resulting grants and funding availability. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Cultural resources, visitor experiences, and jazz preservation would be adversely affected if partners could not be found. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 101-499.

AN - 36411987; 7181 AB - PURPOSE: The harvesting of timber and other vegetative treatments and the implementation of a travel management plan within the 60,101-acre Clancy-Unionville Implementation Area of the Helena Ranger District of the Helena National Forest, located in western Montana, are proposed. The project area includes portions of Oro Fino Gulch, Dry Gulch, Grizzly Gulch, Nelson Gulch, Travis Creek, Whiteman Gulch, Little Buffalo Gulch, Go Devil Creek, Lump Gulch, Roe Gulch, Jackson Creek, Kady Gulch, and Quartz Creek. Most of the treatments would occur in the Grizzly Gulch, Oro Fino Gulch, Dry Gulch, Brooklyn Bridge, Sheep Mountain, Park Lake, and Quartz Creek areas. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative B), are considered in this draft EIS. All of the action alternatives would change vegetation and travel patterns to more desired conditions. The proposed action (Alternative A) would work towards improving overall forest health and sustainability through a combination of silvicultural treatments and prescribed burning. Under the proposed action, the Forest Service would implement prescribed burning on 910 acres of grassland and 1,461 acres of savannah, forest underburning on 755 acres, commercial thinning on 820 acres, shelterwood harvesting on 789 acres, seedtree harvesting on 124 acres, individual tree selection harvesting on 450 acres, clearcutting on 205 acres, and aspen/conifer removal on 98 acres. Transportation management would include construction of 15 miles of temporary road and one mile of permanent system road, closure and rehabilitation of 0.5 mile of existing road to improve watershed conditions, and administrative closure of 27 miles of existing road through imposition of area-wide motorized use restrictions. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) would implement meadow enhancement on 97 acres and individual tree harvest and fuel reduction on 690 acres, fuel reduction along eight miles of road and construction of 2.4 miles of temporary road. Approximately 14.0 million board-feet of timber would be generated by harvest activities. Some clearcuts would exceed the 40-acre limit, requiring approval by the Regional Forester for the Northern Region. The estimated cost-benefit ratios for Forest Service and BLM timber harvest activities are 1.93 and 2.26, respectively, and the overall cost-benefit ratio is estimated at 1.6. Alternative C would respond to concerns expressed about risks associated with prescribed burning, air quality, and noxious weeds. Alternative D would respond to concerns about wildlife and wildlife habitat. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan implementation would provide for healthy native forest and grassland plant communities with a wide variety of native plant species, minimize the threat of large-scale wildfire, insure a variety of wildlife habitats, provide a system of roads and trails to serve the needs of a variety of forest users, produce an array of wood products on a sustainable basis, and maintain or improve water quality and watershed conditions over the short- and long-term. Elk habitat effectiveness and security would be enhanced, as would 145 acres of old-growth forest. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The timber harvesting would occur within 900 acres of wildlife corridors. Approximately 125 acres of old-growth forest would be eliminated, and 2,828 acres of closed-forest habitat would be converted to open-forest habitat. The potential for spreading of weeds would increase. The potential for impacts to cultural resources sites would increase. The prescribed burning would degrade air quality.

AN - 36408406; 7178 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan for the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, located in southern Utah, is proposed. The 1.7-million-acre monument was created to protect an array of scientific, historic, biological, geological, paleontological, and archaeological resources. Issues addressed include those related to the protection of resources, research, the integration of monument and community planning, human activities and uses, monument facility requirements and location, transportation and access management, and water availability and use. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative B) would emphasize the preservation of the monument as an unspoiled natural area, while recognizing its value as a scientific resource for a variety of research activities. The frontier character of the land would be maintained both as a safeguard for monument resources and as an inspiration to visitors. Visitor services would be located primarily in the communities outside the monument, which would help to provide economic opportunities for the communities and provide protection for monument resources. This alternative would also include a strong science program, to be directed by the Bureau of Land management, focused on improving understanding and preserving the resources of the Monument while assisting in the development of improved land management practices. The recreational use of the monument would be managed, in part, by the level of the facilities provided, by the restrictions on access, and by group size limits, an approach that would be guided by a zoning system designed to maintain the undeveloped nature of Monument lands. The science program would include a public education program to increase public understanding of science, the land, and its history. The program would emphasize continued collaboration and employ a science advisory council to advise on the interaction of science, research, and management. Specific management provisions would address vegetation manipulation, wild and scenic river designation, non-surface-disturbing research, surface-disturbing research, parking and trailhead facilities, signing, interpretive sites and picnic areas, toilets, camping and campfires, group size, allocation of land and water resources, competitive and special events, outfitter and guide operations, communication sites and utility rights-of-way, filming, access routes, and trail construction. POSITIVE IMPACTS: By protecting the undeveloped and unspoiled nature of the monument while minimizing further intrusions, the visitor experience would be enhanced and scientific opportunities would be preserved for future generations. Additional activities resulting from the preferred management plan would employ 248 workers, with annual earnings of $6.6 million in the year 2012. The net annual government revenues would reach $236,000 in the same year. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The closure of the monument to cross-country motorized and mechanized uses would impede some human activities within the boundaries. Up to 34 acres could be disturbed by reasonably foreseeable actions, potentially adversely affecting paleontological, archaeological, and historic resources as well as vegetation, cryptobiotic soils, and wildlife habitat; any impacts to these resources would be slight and would be mitigated. The expected increases in visitation would result in damage to archaeological and historic resources. Animal damage control activities would adversely affect some research related to wildlife populations and natural systems.

AN - 36415173; 7176 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan for the Missouri National Recreational River, located in southeastern South Dakota and northeastern Nebraska, is proposed. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 2) would implement a resource protection and recreation regime emphasizing the protection and enhancement of biologic value and the history and culture of the area. Alternative 3 would provide for increased recreational emphasis on the river. Recreational river boundaries would change somewhat under Alternative 2 or Alternative 3. Under the preferred alternative, the Army Corps of Engineers (COE) and the National Park Service (NPS) would develop a revised cooperative agreement emphasizing the maintenance or enhancement of natural and cultural resources, streambank protection, the maintenance of scenic qualities as viewed from the river, low levels of visitor use, and the improvement of public understanding of the area through interest group involvement. The rural quality of the area would be maintained, intrusive development would be restricted, and the maintenance of the landscape through local government and private means would be encouraged. Easements, zoning, and tax incentives would be used. The COE and NPS managers could combine existing facilities to improve efficiency. Two boat ramps would be provided on the South Dakota bank, and a bike trail would be provided on the Nebraska bank. Essential streambank erosion control could be allowed on a case-by-case basis, and the purchase of rapidly eroding banks from willing sellers could be considered. Natural resource management would act to restore the natural function of the river and habitat, including instream habitat and habitat for species of special concern. Management activities would emphasize the historic and cultural aspects of the river. Visitor management would emphasize high-quality wildlife observation, hunting, fishing, and boating. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The management scheme would support an increased in recreational visitation, which would boost the local economy somewhat. Fish, wildlife, and vegetation habitat would benefit in the long-term, and prime and unique farmland would be retained. Cultural resources would most likely benefit from enhanced protection. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: If funding for additional staffing did not become available, cultural resources could be adversely affected due to lack of protection.

AN - 36404753; 7174 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan for the Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park, located in central Texas, is proposed. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Each of the three alternatives under consideration would provide a two-phased approach to management and development of the park. The first phase would reflect the actions that could be implemented immediately and the second phase those actions that could be implemented following the departure of the Secret Service. The No Action Alternative (Alternative 1) would perpetuate the present management course, continuing the bus tour at the ranch but providing no visitor transportation into the settlement. The Texas White House would be opened to visitors only on special occasions. The Minimum Requirements Alternative (Alternative 2) would result in a modest increase in the level of park maintenance, interpretation, and administration, providing for a higher level of protection for the park's historic resources and expanding educational outreach into the local community. A limited schedule of visitation at the Texas White House would be allowed, requiring that the bus tour be changed into a shuttle system. The preferred alternative (Alternative 3) would include a comprehensive change in the overall visitor experience of the ranch, with the Texas White House opened on a regularly scheduled basis, the bus tour becoming a shuttle system, and facilities for visitor contact, maintenance, ranching, and park interpretive staff. In Johnson City, the visitor experience of the settlement would become much more unique and educational. Staffing would remain the same under Alternative 1, increase somewhat under Alternative 2, and increase substantially under Alternative 3. The estimated development costs for the preferred alternative are $6.8 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan implementation would assure the management, use, and development of the park such that it would best serve visitors while preserving the historic character, structures, and landscape of the area. The increased staffing and increased visitation at the site would contribute somewhat to the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The adaptive rehabilitation of the interiors of historic buildings would result in a minor irreversible loss of historic fabric. Approximately 8.5 acres of land, including some undeveloped land, would be disturbed by facility construction. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 91-134.

A Historic Resource Study for the Seattle Unit of the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park. AN - 62371315; ED437334 AB - The Alaskan Klondike Gold Rush coincided with major events, including the arrival of the railroad, and it exemplified continuing trends in Seattle's (Washington) history. If not the primary cause of the city's growth and prosperity, the Klondike Gold Rush nonetheless serves as a colorful reflection of the era and its themes, including the celebrated "Seattle spirit." This historic resource study examines the Klondike Gold Rush, beginning in the early 1850's with the founding of Seattle, and ending in 1909 with the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition commemorating the Klondike Gold Rush and the growth of the city. Chapter 1 describes early Seattle and the gold strikes in the Klondike, while the following three chapters analyze how the city became the gateway to the Yukon, how the stampede to the Far North stimulated local businesses, and how the city's infrastructure and boundaries changed during the era of the gold rush. Chapter 5 looks at how historians have interpreted the Klondike Gold Rush throughout the 20th century. The final chapter brings the Klondike story up to the present, describing the establishment of Seattle's Pioneer Square Historic District and the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park. The chapter titles include: (1) "'By-and-By': The Early History of Seattle"; (2) "Selling Seattle"; (3) "Reaping the Profits of the Klondike Trade"; (4) "Building the City"; (5) "Interpreting the Klondike Gold Rush"; and (6) "Historic Resources in the Modern Era." Contains an extensive 147-item partially annotated bibliography; 12 appendixes contain historical documents and photographs.

Cooperative Projects between Counties and the Bureau of Land Management AN - 21188710; 4466519 AB - The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), an agency within the United States Department of the Interior, is committed to sustainting the health, diversity, and productivity of the public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. The area BLM manages covers approximately 264 million surface acres as well as 300 million acres of subsurface mineral estate. Most of these lands are located in the Western United States. BLM strives to balance the management of these public lands and resources in a way that best serves the needs of the American people. The National Association of Counties (NACo), headquartered in Washington, DC, is the only national organization representing county governments in the United States. NACo's purpose and objectives are to act as a liason with other levels of government; to improve public understanding of counties; to serve as a national advocate for counties; and, to provide a resource for counties to help them find innovative methods to meet the challenges they face. Through its Western interstate Region, NACo has promoted cooperative projects as a way of improving relationships between county officials and Federal land mnagement agencies. Since land use planning and zoning authority typically resides with the counties in unincorporated areas where public lands are located, it makes sense for counties and public land managers to coordinate and work with each other when making decisions about land use. Following are some examples of successful partnership efforts. Since the number of entries were limited to the very best, this collection is but a snapshot. Some are traditional in nature, while others showcase creative approaches to challenges. What is common to all is the belief that working together produces results not easily gained by working alone. All agree that these collective efforts are far more effective and beneficial.

N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-14 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GRIFFITH ENERGY PROJECT, KINGMAN, MOHAVE COUNTY, ARIZONA. AN - 36391466; 7168 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a 520-megawatt natural gas-fired, combined-cycle power plant on private lands south of Kingman, located in northwestern Arizona, is proposed. The applicant, Griffith Energy Limited Liability Corporation (Griffith), would operate the facility as a merchant plant, meaning that it would not be owned by a utility and that there would be no long-term commitment or obligation by any utility to purchase the capacity and energy generated by the plant. Griffith has applied to interconnect the plant with the Western Area Power Administration's (Western) Pacific Northwest-Pacific Southwest Intertie and Parker-Davis transmission systems. Western, as a major transmission system owner, needs to provide access to its transmission system when it is requested by an eligible organization per existing policies, regulations, and laws. Four alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would include the power plant, water wells, and transmission lines as well as natural gas pipelines, electrical transmission lines, and a substation. An existing transmission line would be upgraded and new roads would be constructed to provide access to the plant. Plant site support infrastructure would include an administration building, warehouse storage, auxiliary boiler, water treatment and storage facilities, cooling towers, and gas conditioning equipment. The plant and infrastructure would occupy less than 65 acres within a 160-acre site in the proposed Mohave County Interstate 40 Industrial Corridor. Griffith would use an infrastructure system being developed for the corridor, which includes water pipelines that would pipe water from a well field provided by Golden Valley County Improvement District Number 2. The projected water demand for the project is 3,300 gallons per minute. Underground pipelines would bring high-pressure gas to the generating facility from two natural gas pipelines. Other facilities required would include two natural gas supply lines, two 230-kilovolt (230-kV) transmission lines, a 230/345-kV substation and associated access road, and an upgraded 230-kV transmission line. The power plant would burn only natural gas, consuming an estimated 110 million cubic feet per day. Griffith would develop interconnections with two potential gas suppliers, El Paso Natural Gas Company and Transwestern Pipeline Company. The other two action alternatives under consideration would include the construction of the transmission lines and interconnections by Griffith rather than Western, and the construction of the plant and similar or slightly different transmission lines and interconnection, possibly in cooperation with another utility or other government parties. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The interconnection would integrate the power generated by Griffith's plant into the regional transmission system, allowing Griffith to supply power to the competitive electric wholesale market. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction of the plant and related facilities would displace 160 acres of sand and gravel resources, and access roads and substation facilities would displace 10 acres of semidesert mixed grass-mixed scrub series vegetation. The transmission line corridors would displace additional wildlife habitat and would traverse populated areas, affecting safety, visual aesthetics, and broadcast reception. The brine disposal pond would exceed wildlife effluent dependent surface water standards for several pollutants. Powerplant operation would result in release of nitrous oxides and carbon monoxide, and contribute to regional haze. Vegetation removal and plant and transmission line construction would cause erosion and sedimentation of receiving flows. The plant would consume 22 to 41 billion cubic feet of natural gas per year. Hazardous materials used during operation of the plant could be released into the surrounding area.

AN - 36403130; 7167 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for 6.3 million acres of public land, located in southeastern Oregon, is proposed. The planning area is semiarid rangeland with scattered mountains and broad valleys. Elevation ranges from 2,100 feet along the Snake River to 9,750 feet at the top of Steens Mountain. Major river systems include the Donner und Blitzen, the Malheur, and the Owyhee. Issues addressed include those related to air quality, energy and mineral resources, fire management, rangeland vegetation, forests and woodlands, special status plant species, water resources and riparian land and wetlands, fish and aquatic habitat, wildlife and wildlife habitat, special status species, wild horses, rangeland grazing use management, recreational resources, off-highway-vehicle (OHV) use, visual resources, areas of critical environmental concern (ACECs), wild and scenic rivers, land adjacent to wilderness study areas, national conservation areas, human uses and values, cultural resources, and land and realty. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative B), are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative C (the preferred alternative) would provide for a high level of natural resource protection and improvement in ecological conditions, while allowing commodity production. The upward limit management prescriptions would include prescribed burning on 50,000 acres of rangeland and 300 acres of forest, the closure of energy and mineral lease entry on 2.3 million acres, the prohibition of surface occupancy for leasable mineral and energy developments on 2.5 million acres, special or seasonal stipulations for leasable mineral and energy developments on 2.9 million acres, the closure of locatable mineral entry on 2.5 million acres, the closure of saleable mineral entry on 2.6 million acres, permits opening of 2,644 acres of forest for commercial harvesting over the next 20 years, juniper treatments on 260,000 acres, the designation of 938,168 acres as special recreation management areas, the designation of 5.3 million acres as extended recreation management areas, the opening of 3.9 million acres of OHV use, the limitation of OHV use on 2.4 million acres, the closure of 17,631 acres to OHV use, the designation of 44 ACECs containing 355,219 acres, the designation of 43 miles within four river corridors encompassing 11,761 acres of land as administratively suitable for wild and scenic river status, and the protection of the 768,983-acre Steens Mountain area as a National Conservation Area. Visual resource management provisions would place 120,833 acres within class I, 2.5 million acres within class II, 784,364 acres within class III, and 2.9 million acres within class IV. Alternative A would emphasize commodity production or extraction. Alternative D would emphasize resource values and the functioning of natural systems. Alternative E would minimize human intervention in the ecosystem and eliminate commodity production. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The implementation of the plan would insure the protection of natural and cultural resources within the planning area while allowing for an appropriate level of resource exploitation of economic and recreational purposes. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Prescribed fire would result in significant increases in the release of particulate matter. Mineral and energy lease stipulations would constrain entry as compared to current practices. Mineral entry, where allowed, would result in disturbance of soil and vegetation and the associated wildlife habitat, damage to surface and groundwater resources, and damage to visual and other recreational resources. Mineral leasing would be allowed in some ACECs and other sensitive areas. The range management practices would result in accumulation of fine fuels that could contribute to wildfires. Federally-listed or candidate endangered or threatened species that could be adversely affected by the plan would include Borax Lake chub, bull trout, Lahontan cutthroat trout, Columbia spotted frogs, northern bald eagles, and peregrine falcons. Other special status species could also be adversely affected. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

AN - 36403083; 7164 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a 15- to 20-year general management plan for the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area (NRA), located in northeastern Washington, is proposed. Lake Roosevelt, which extends 154 miles and provides 312 miles of publicly-owned shoreline, is one of the few large lakes or reservoirs in northeastern Washington that has extensive shoreline accessible to the public for recreational use. Since its inception in 1980, visits to the NRA have increased from 800,000 to approximately 1.4 million. The number of residents living along the shoreline has also increased dramatically. The original design of NRA facilities, which was established to accommodate visitors who would travel to the area from distant locations, has proven unsatisfactory for some area residents who must drive long distances to launch their boats. The introduction of houseboats, which attract a different type of user, has also altered the character of the lake. Two alternatives are considered in this draft EIS. The No Action Alternative (Alternative 2) would continue the present management regime. The proposed action (Alternative 1) would provide for a new management plan emphasizing maintenance of the existing visitor experience by increasing the capacity of existing facilities and redirecting other increases in visitation to less used areas. Alternative 1 would provide a framework for decision making regarding natural and cultural resources, visitor use and development, NRA operations, and land use. Most recreational facilities, use levels, and patterns would continue to be managed much as they are currently. Most types of boating would continue to be allowed, and provisions for alternative boating, such as canoeing, would be increased. More than half of the shoreline would be maintained in a natural condition. Houseboat use would be distributed more evenly over the lake, and camping along the shoreline would be allowed. Hunting and fishing would continue to be allowed. The Spokane Arm of the reservoir would be designated as nearing its carrying capacity, with special measures to prevent crowding implemented and no new developments in that area. New facilities would include a full service marina at Crescent Bay, expansion of the launch site at Hunters, a new deep-water marina at the Kettle Falls north marina site for houseboat moorage and, possibly, new launch points at lower elevations and new parking facilities. Land exchanges, public land sales, and easement granting would be implemented in order to reduce expenses and/or increase the practicality of private property use. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Alternative 1 would provide more management options to the National Park Service to ensure that the primarily natural character of the shoreline would be maintained and that the public would continue to have access to this resource and to use it as they have historically even if visitor numbers continued to increase. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction and expansion of visitor facilities would displace biotic communities. If visitation were to increase beyond projections, new programs to control crowding and overuse would be required. LEGAL MANDATES: Executive Order 11017 (10 C.F.R. Part 205).

AN - 36417569; 7157 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land exchange between ASARCO Incorporated and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in relation to the exploitation of mineral resources by ASARCO in Arizona is proposed. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternatives (ASARCO's proposed action), ASARCO would acquire approximately 31 parcels containing 10,976 acres of public lands in Gila and Pinal counties. In exchange, BLM would acquire 18 parcels containing 7,304 acres of land from ASARCO in Mohave and Pinal counties. ASARCO would acquire 8,196 acres of surface and mineral estate and 3,143 acres of federal mineral estate near Kearny as well as 637 acres of mineral estate near Casa Grande. These lands would be near or adjacent to ASARCO's mining operations at the Ray Mine and Kearny. In exchange, ASARCO would transfer to the BLM 6,980 acres in Mohave County and 320 acres in Pinal County. The offered lands would include areas of critical environmental concern (ACECs) supporting desert tortoise populations, wilderness inholdings or adjacent lands, broadleaf riparian parcels, and upland Sonoran zones. The lands acquired by ASARCO would include 18 parcels in the Ray Complex, five parcels in the Copper Butte/Buckeye area, five parcels in the Chilito/Hayden area, and three parcels in the Casa Grande area. The lands transferred to the BLM would include the Gila River Parcel at Cochran in Pinal County and four parcels in Mohave County, namely the Sacramento Valley Parcel, Knisely Ranch Parcels, McCracken Mountains Parcels, and Tomlin Parcels. ASARCO would use Battle Axe Road to access mineral resources in the acquired parcels, though two alternative access routes are under consideration. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The lands acquired by the BLM would include areas of high-resource value. These lands would include 8,842 acres of upland plant communities, 152 acres of riparian plant communities, five surface water rights, 0.5 mile of the Big Sandy River and one mile of the Gila River, two springs, two stockponds, 7,300 acres of grazing land, and 11 archaeological sites. The lands acquired by the BLM would include habitat for ten special status species, including 7,144 acres of Category I and II desert tortoise habitat. Habitat for the endangered bald eagle, American peregrine falcon, and southwestern willow flycatcher would also be placed in public ownership. The lands acquired by the BLM would also include areas in or adjacent to the Mount Tipton and Warm Springs Wilderness Areas and the Gila River Riparian, Big Sandy Herd, and McCracken Desert Tortoise ACECs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The acquisition of the lands to be transferred to ASARCO could adversely affect 10,891 acres of upland plant communities, 90 acres of riparian plant communities, 7,258 acres of Category II and III desert tortoise habitat, 13 springs and three stockponds, seven water rights, 8,196 acres within seven grazing allotments providing 918 animal unit months of livestock forage, and 80 cultural resource sites. Land transfers would result in a net annual tax income loss to Mohave and Pinal counties of $15,700 and $3,900, respectively; these losses would be offset by payments to the counties.

The park occupies 794,000 acres, most of which is legislated wilderness; the park is the only desert wilderness in California set aside for the preservation of natural, cultural, historic, and scenic resources. It was established as a unit in the national park system in 1936. In 1994, its status was changed from a national monument to a national park and 234,000 acres of wilderness and backcountry were added to its boundaries. This final EIS supplements the management plan prepared for the area in November 1997. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative B), were considered in the draft EIS on the general management plan. This supplement presents an additional alternative. The proposed action (Alternative A) forwarded in the draft EIS would have offered a variety of recreational opportunities in the backcountry areas but would minimize disturbance to resources. A trail system would have been created for hiking and bicycling, and 36.9 miles of existing roads would be open to motor vehicle use. All other dirt tracks or roads would have been closed to vehicle use. Rock climbing would have been allowed in certain areas, and the National Park Service would have issued permits for the installation of new climbing bolts. Auto camping would have been allowed only in designated campgrounds, and no such facilities would have been created on any of the added lands. All but 6,000 acres of the park would have been designated as a wildlife management area for desert tortoise recovery. The newly proposed alternative (Alternative E) would include the designation of a trail system with prescriptions for foot, bicycle, and equestrian uses; the designation of unpaved roads in the lands added to the park in 1994 as part of the developed zone opened to motor vehicle use; the designation of management prescriptions for recreational climbing throughout the park; the designation of locations in the park where roadside auto camping would be permitted or prohibited; the analysis of major artificial water sources installed for wildlife in designated wilderness to determine whether these sources should be removed or maintained; the designation of areas limited to day use only and areas closed to public access seasonally or permanently; the establishment of group size limits for overnight stays in the backcountry and wilderness; and the implementation of the tortoise recovery plan. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the implementation would minimize the disturbance to resources while increasing visitor activities and services. It would preserve the vegetation and the unique geological and archaeological features of the park while providing enjoyment and learning opportunities for many thousands of visitors. It would also guide the management of the park for the next 10 to 15 years. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: A small area in the Little San Bernardino Mountains could be adversely affected by the development of a primitive campsite, and the development of a parking area in Berdoo/Thermal Canyon could adversely affect a bicycle trail through the area. The number of holes drilled in rocks for the placement of fixed anchors would increase. LEGAL MANDATES: California Desert Protection Act of 1994 (P.L. 103-433).

AN - 16347480; 7128 AB - PURPOSE: The inclusion in the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System (NWSRS) of the Lower Sheenjek River, located in the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge in northeastern Alaska, is proposed. The river is a 277-mile, free-flowing, unpolluted tributary of the Porcupine River. The study area encompasses the lower 99 miles of the river flowing through the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge. The river outside the study area, within the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, is already included in the NWSRS. The entire study area is eligible and suitable for inclusion in the system, meeting the criteria for classification as wild. The area is characterized by outstandingly remarkable cultural, wildlife, scenic, and recreational values and has historically provided access to important resources used by local people for subsistence. The area provides habitat for waterfowl, moose, black bear, grizzly bear, and beaver, and the scenery is appealing as the river flows through thickly forested, boggy flats. Finally, the river offers excellent boating waters and camping opportunities which are easily accessible. With the exception of five relatively small private parcels, the entire study area is federally owned. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative B), are considered in this revised draft EIS. A previous study, resulting in a draft EIS, was conducted from 1981-1984, but was not completed due to funding constraints. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative A), the entire Lower Sheenjek would be recommended for inclusion as a wild river in the NWSRS. The management of all federal lands would remain with the Fish and Wildlife Service. The management objectives would focus on keeping the area free of water resource development projects and major extractive resource development (timber harvesting and oil and gas development) and minimize the impact of recreational use. The estimated cost of corridor administration is $5,000 per year. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The designation of the Lower Sheenjek as a wild river would provide additional protection and management attention relative to other rivers and resources in the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge and encourage consistent management of the lower and upper segments of the river. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Oil and gas development and other potential resource development would be foregone, as would road, utility, and pipeline construction.

AN - 36417194; 7123 AB - PURPOSE: The establishment of a comprehensive plan to guide new building uses and site improvements at Fort Baker, a site within the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA), located in northern California, is proposed. The 225-acre Fort Baker site is a bowl-shaped valley bounded by Highway 101 on the west, Alexander Avenue on the north, and San Francisco Bay on the south and east. Approximately 183 acres of federally owned tidelands further enhance the property. The management plan would cover the Fort Baker lands, to be transferred to the U.S. Army to the GGNRA by the year 2001, as well as lands currently managed by the National Park Service (NPS) within the GGNRA. Four alternatives, including the No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative, actions would include the creation of a conference and retreat center, providing up to 350 rooms, in the historic buildings around the Parade Ground and in the adjacent nonhistoric Capehart area. At its maximum size, the structure would contain 164,400 square feet. Compatibility design construction would provide adequate space for meetings, dining, and other accommodations. The Bay Area Discovery Museum would be retained and expanded into historic buildings containing 10,000 square feet and a new, compatibly designed structure or structures totaling 25,000 square feet. The Coast Guard Station would also be retained. The historic boat shop would be used as a public center with meeting and program space and supporting food service, bicycle rental space, restrooms, and other visitor facilities. Existing slips at the marina would be removed and replaced with up to 60 moorings and slips for day or overnight use. The wooden bulkhead along the waterfront would be removed and the beach restored and complemented adjoining six acres of meadow, a picnic area and boardwalk. The improvements to the fishing pier would include the addition of fish-cleaning stations, railings, and benches. The batteries and other fortification structures would be stabilized, preserved, and interpreted. An NPS visitor center would be established and an interpretive trail would be created from Lime Point along the waterfront, continuing as the San Francisco Bay Trail to East Road, Battery Duncan, the chapel. Other site-wide improvements would include the restoration of 40 acres of habitat for the endangered mission blue butterfly, improvement of trails, rehabilitation of historic landscape features, improvement to circulation routes and parking, signing improvements, and improvement of utility systems. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The planning would preserve the special character of Fort Baker, insure compatibility with the GGNRA and its mission, and generate resources to preserve and maintain the historic buildings and the site. The project activities would result in substantial improvement of historic, natural, and recreational resources at the site. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Increased visitor use could result in damage to the ecological values of the site, a decrease in the wildlife use of the area, and an alteration of visitor experience. The users of the Presidio Yacht Club would be displaced. The removal of 11 ancillary structures would represent a loss of historic values within the National Register District, but would not adversely affect the National Register status of the district. Eelgrass beds in Horseshoe Cove could be damaged in the short-term, but would be enhanced in the long-term. LEGAL MANDATES: Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-510).

As available resources are consumed or preempted, the cost of maintaining or expanding urban infrastructure increases. To provide for a continuous supply of reasonably priced, high quality aggregate resources, the remaining resources must be identified and protected. Aggregate resource activities are intended to provide industry and the public with relevant data needed to make informed decisions on future resource availability. This includes information on the location, thickness, and quality of aggregate, and related field studies are summarized.

Impacts associated with water development, mining, grazing, and other activities have led to exploration of options for restoring disturbed riparian habitats. Field studies are underway that use hydrologic manipulation to mimic the effects of flooding and produce appropriate germination of cottonwoods and willows to reclaim sand and gravel pits. Efforts to control saltcedar populations and to characterize habitat for the threatened Preble's meadow jumping mouse are also surveyed.

TRUMAN PARKWAY, CHATHAM COUNTY, GEORGIA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF FEBRUARY 1997). AN - 36405293; 7115 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a 7.0-mile-long, four-lane, limited-access parkway on the east side of Savannah, located in southeastern Georgia, is proposed. The roadway would extend from the Abercorn Street Extension (State Route R 204) north to Derenne Avenue and complete the final phases of the Harry S. Truman Parkway. Phase I of the project, from Derenne Avenue to Wheaton Street, was completed in 1993; construction of Phase II, from Wheaton Street to President Street, began in 1994. Completion of the parkway would enable traffic to bypass the congested southern areas of Savannah and would also remove through traffic from parallel roadways that are currently operating near capacity. Two main build alternatives, seven subalternatives, a No-Build Alternative, a transportation systems management alternative, and a mass transit alternative are considered in this draft supplemental EIS. Various combinations of the alternatives and subalternatives produced 20 alternative build alignments. Of the 20 possible configurations, nine were determined to be reasonable. Nineteen of the 20 build alternatives would require the construction of a bridge over the salt marsh adjacent to the Vernon River and the river itself. Two methods of bridge construction were considered: mat and barge (Method A), which would involve the placement of temporary mats directly on the marsh; and end-on or short-span (Method B), which would involve the driving of piling ahead of the previous span. The applicant's preferred alternative is Alternative 1 with Bridge Construction Method A, which would be the lowest-cost and least controversial proposal. The total estimated cost of the project is $84.8 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The facility would reduce congestion on area roads, reduce travel time and improve vehicle efficiency for commuters and local residents, provide for planned growth and economic development, improve safety, and improve local, regional, and national transportation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the project would result in displacement of 83 residences and seven businesses, 19.1 acres of land within ten jurisdictional wetlands and three jurisdictional waters, and 114.2 acres of forest. The displaced residences would include 49 single-family homes and one apartment complex containing 34 units. Approximately 113 receptors would experience noise in excess of federal standards, and only 70 of these receptors would qualify for mitigation. The rights-of-way development would also adversely affect 54 acres of the Bacon Park Golf Course and Archery Range. The visual aesthetics of portions of the town of Vernonburg, a community recommended for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places, would be adversely affected.

In order to gain background information for evaluation of constructed wetlands, several wetlands on both undisturbed and stripmined areas were evaluated to determine the physical and chemical characteristrics of the substrates as well as the vegetation characteristics. The research phase of this projects consisted of 10 wetland cells each 7x16 m in size with the water depth varying from 0 to 40 cm. The substrates were allowed to stabilize over winter and each cell was planted in the spring of 1993 with 18 plants each of cattail, maidencance, soft stem bulrush and pickerel weed. All cells were thickly vegetated by the end of the first growing season.

AN - 16358794; 7109 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of natural gas extraction and pipeline projects in two separate areas southwest of Price, located in east-central Utah, is proposed. Permits for extraction are being sought by Anadarko Petroleum Corporation, Chandler and Associates, Inc., and Texaco Exploration and Production, Inc. The pipeline would be constructed by Questar Pipeline Company. The project area encompasses 11,520 acres. The primary targeted reservoir would be coal bed methane gas from the Ferron Sandstone Member of the Mancos Formation. The developments would include the drilling of natural gas wells, the construction of roads and gathering pipelines for natural gas and produced water, and the drilling of wells for disposal of produced water. Major issues addressed include those related to geology and minerals, water resources, air quality, soils, vegetation and riparian land and wetland, reclamation, wildlife habitat, threatened and endangered species, livestock management, cultural resources, land use, recreational and visual resources, noise, socioeconomics, health and safety, and hazardous materials and waste. Three alternatives, including the No Action Alternative (Alternative 3), are considered in this draft EIS. The applicants' proposed action (Alternative 1) would consist of the development of 348 natural gas wells, various ancillary facilities, and the pipeline. Some 65 wells would be developed in the 18,350-acre North Area and 222 wells would be developed in the 93,170-acre South Area. A total of 61 wells have already been drilled. The wells would be developed on a 160-acre-per-well density pattern (four wells per square mile with one well in each quadrant of the section). Ancillary facilities would include access roads, pipelines for gathering gas and producing water, electrical utilities, central production facilities for treating and compressing gas and disposing of produced water, and pipelines for delivering gas under high pressure to the transmission pipeline. The transmission pipeline would be 20 inches in diameter and almost 27 miles in length. The construction activities would extend five years beginning in 1999, and the production activities would continue for 20 years. Alternative 2 (the preferred alternative), developed in response to issues raised during the public and agency scoping process, would incorporate the same construction and operational components as Alternative 1, but would include environmental protection measures applied to proposed activities on federal lands; these measures could require relocation of well pads, roads, and/or ancillary facilities, restrict development during certain seasons, and/or require special construction, operational, and reclamation methods. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would produce and distribute natural gas in an environmentally safe and efficient manner to serve regional needs. The project activities would support local employment and otherwise enhance the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the disposal of produced water could adversely affect water quality of regional aquifers, and the sedimentation and salinity within the produced water could adversely affect surface water quality. A total of 168 wells and portions of access road would lie within critical soil areas. The construction activities would disturb 1,504 acres of vegetation and result in long-term losses on 703 acres. The soil disturbance would increase the potential for infestation by noxious weeds. The project would result in the loss of 6.5 acres of riparian communities. A total of 28 wells would be constructed within elk winter range and 169 wells would be constructed within mule deer winter range. The indirect disturbances would adversely affect 8,750 acres of elk winter range and 13,460 acres of mule deer winter range. Cultural resource sites would occur within the area affected by project activities, and 53 wells would be constructed within one mile of residential structures, resulting in exposure of affected residents to substantially increased noise levels. Grazing capacity on land administered by the Bureau of Land Management would be reduced by 25 animal unit months. The construction activities and structures would degrade visual and other recreational aspects of the area.

AN - 16347433; 7107 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of land acquisition, sustained yield, and habitat conservation plans in relation to timber harvest activities in northern California is proposed. The Pacific Lumber Company and its subsidiaries (PALCO) manages 211,00 acres of forest lands in Humboldt County, including 5,625 acres of lands to be acquired under the Headwaters Agreement. The lands are used for timber harvesting, grazing, agricultural and residential purposes. The Headwaters lands and 9,468 acres of land now operated by the Elk River Timber Company are addressed. Four alternatives, including the No Action Alternative (Alternative 1) and one subalternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative 2), approximately 1,764 acres would be added to the Headwaters purchase area to buffer the old-growth redwood on the PALCO portion; the remaining 7,704 acres would be transferred to PALCO as partial payment for the Headwaters. The Headwaters and other areas of PALCO land provide important habitat for a number of endangered or threatened species, including marbled murrelet, a seabird that nests in old-growth trees, the northern spotted owl, and the coho salmon. PALCO wishes to obtain incidental take permits (ITPs) from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for take of marbled murrelet and other wildlife and resident fish and from the National Marine Fisheries Service for salmon and steelhead trout. To obtain an ITP, PALCO must prepare a habitat conservation plan that, among other things, minimizes and mitigates take and avoids jeopardizing the relevant species. The California Department of Fish and Game also reviews the conservation measures of the HCP that relate to state-listed species and other relevant species. Activities covered by the habitat conservation plan and the associated ITPs would include timber management, near-stream gravel mining, commercial rock quarrying, grazing, stream enhancement projects, operation of fish-rearing facilities, scientific surveys and studies, recreational resources management, and road and landing construction, maintenance, and closure. The conservation strategies would address old-growth redwood, aquatic species, and silvicultural practices. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In addition to generating substantial timber to support the local and regional economies, the action alternatives would ensure the maximum possible protection and perpetuation of endangered species and other natural resources. Sediment delivered to streams by the affected lands would decline, and wetland and riparian land, fish habitat, and remaining old-growth, including redwood and Douglas-fir, within the area would benefit from additional protection. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, timber harvesting and other activities would generate particulate matter, and winter road construction and wet-weather use of roads would result in some stream turbidity. Old growth in southern Humboldt County would decline by 3.2 percent, reducing habitat for the affected endangered species and other old-growth-dependent species. Late seral habitat would decline more under the proposed action than under any other alternative.

AN - 16347382; 7105 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of the military land withdrawal and reservation for the 2.7-million-acre Barry M. Goldwater Range (BMGR), located in southwestern Arizona, is proposed. Four overlying airspace areas, containing 57,000 cubic miles of airspace designated by the Federal Aviation Administration, closely approximate the shape of the range area. The renewal is required if the military were to continue military use of the lands after November 6, 2001. The BMGR, which is administered by the Air Force Air Education and Training Command through the 56th Fighter Wing, Range Management Office at Luke Air Force Base, Arizona, functions as an armament and high hazard testing area; provides facilities for training for aerial gunnery, rocketry, electronic warfare, and tactical maneuvering and air support; and supports other defense-related functions. Issues addressed include those related to airspace and range operations, non-military land and airspace use, public utilities and ground transportation, noise, public health and safety, cultural resources, socioeconomic resources, visual resources, recreation, hazardous materials and waste, earth resources, water resources, air quality, biological resources, and environmental justice. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would include a non-renewal of the BMGR, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the No Action Alternative, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service would continue to have surface management jurisdiction over the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge and the Bureau of Land Management would assume full jurisdiction over other federal public lands. The proposed action would renew the BMGR indefinitely with Congressional review and military accountability every 15 years. The other action alternative would renew the BMGR for 25 years. In addition to the primary alternatives, secondary scenarios associated with the renewal alternatives address military administration, the land withdrawal area, and administrative management of the affected natural and cultural resources. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The renewal of the BMGR would preserve a component of the national defense training base. The operations at BMGR would continue to contribute significantly to the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Aircraft noise, including sonic booms, and noise from explosion of munitions would continue to affect the area within and around the range. Some residences west of Auxiliary Field 2 and one residence northeast of Gila Bend Air Force Auxiliary Field would continue to be exposed to average noise levels greater than 65 decibels. Public access to areas where hazardous activities occur, constituting approximately 22 percent of the BMGR, would continue to be restricted. Military ground activities would disturb cultural resource sites. Visual resources would be affected by structures and flights and recreation activities would continue to be limited by access restrictions. Range activities would continue to result in the use and generation of hazardous materials and the disturbance of surface and groundwater resources. Vehicular movements, heavy equipment use, and the use of munitions would disturb soils and increase erosion and disturb wildlife habitat. The land withdrawal restrictions would impede the development of mineral and energy resources, LEGAL MANDATES: Military Lands Withdrawal Act of 1986 (P.L. 99-606).

AN - 16346334; 7106 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of the military land withdrawal for the continued operation of the 3.0-million-acre Nellis Air Force Range (NAFR), located in southwestern Nevada, is proposed. The NAFR is the key component of the Nellis Range Complex, which comprises airspace, land, and infrastructure allowing for realistic targets, secure simulation of battle area with surface and air defenses, command and control systems, realistic targets, and comprehensive test and training feedback. The airspace is comprised of restricted areas and military operations areas designated by the Federal Aviation Administration. The infrastructure includes airfields at Indian Springs and Tonopah Test Range and simulated targets and threats throughout the NAFR, as well as roads, radar installations, and communications, electrical power transmission, water supply, and water treatment facilities. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would eliminate the land withdrawal, are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative 1A would consist of the renewal of currently withdrawn military lands as the NAFR for an indefinite period. Alternative 1B would consist of the indefinite renewal of the currently withdrawn military lands, except a portion of the Clarkdale and Wagner mining districts, possible jurisdictional adjustments, co-use recreational access to portions of Mud Lake, Kawish Range, and EC South; and the administrative realignment of certain lands, possibly including Pahute Mesa and portions of the Desert National Wildlife Range. Alternative 2A would consist of the renewal of currently withdrawn military lands as the NAFR for a 25-year period. Alternative 2B would consist of the renewed withdrawal of the lands encompassed by Alternative 1B. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The renewal of the land withdrawal would allow the NAFR to continue to enhance national security. The operations at the NAFR would continue to contribute significantly to the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 90,000 acres within the NAFR would continue to be disturbed by Air Force activities. Aircraft noise, including sonic booms, and noise from explosion of munitions associated with the projected 200,000 to 300,000 annual sortie operations would continue to affect the area, and the explosion of munitions would disturb soils and destroy vegetation supporting wildlife. The access restrictions would impede uses by recreationists, researchers, and American Indians. Air Force operations, including the possible testing of nuclear devices, would result in generation of hazardous materials and wastes. Groundwater and surface water resources would continue to be consumed to support NAFR activities.

Preparation date: September 24, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NATCHEZ TRACE PARKWAY SECTION 3X SOUTHERN TERMINUS, ADAMS COUNTY, MISSISSIPPI. AN - 36405337; 7100 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of section 3X of the Natchez Trace Parkway, located in southwestern Mississippi, is proposed. The parkway follows the alignment of the historic Natchez Trace, which extended from Natchez, Mississippi, to Nashville, Tennessee, and was the main overland link between the lower Mississippi and the central territory in the 18th and 19th centuries. In 1988, the 445-mile parkway was established as a national historic park; the authorizing statute included a provision to conduct a feasibility study for completing the southern terminus. The southern terminus is one of two parkway segments remaining to be completed. The southern end of the parkway is currently eight miles outside Natchez at US 61. The parkway has been partially constructed from US 61 to US 84/98, but this four-mile segment will not open until a terminus alternative is selected and fully constructed. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative 1 would not extend the parkway beyond its current terminus but would require the construction of an interchange at US 84/98 to provide access to the unopened parkway segment. Under Alternative 2 (the preferred alternative) and Alternative 3, the parkway would end at Liberty Road or Seargeant Prentiss Drive, respectively, and a new interchange would be required for either location. From these terminus points, parkway users would access the river bluffs and downtown Natchez via city streets. The routes for Alternative 2 and Alternative 3 would follow a common alignment within the existing National Park Service (NPS) right-of-way for 3.6 miles between US 84/98 and the vicinity of Melvin Bayou. At that point, Alternative 2 would leave the NPS right-of-way and proceed southwest to Liberty Road; Alternative 3 would stay entirely within the NPS right-of-way. The estimated constructions costs for Alternative 1 and Alternative 2 are $372,000 and $12.0 million (1996 dollars), respectively. The estimated rights-of-way acquisition cost for Alternative 2 is $2.5 million (1997 dollars). The estimated cost of Alternative 3 is $12.7 million (1996 dollars); there would be no acquisition costs for Alternative 3. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would fulfill the intent of the 1938 legislation that authorized construction of the Natchez Trace Parkway. The city of Natchez was the cornerstone of the old trace, and the completion of the parkway leading into Natchez would be essential to achieving the purpose of the parkway. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Alternative 2 would require the displacement of 17 residences and five commercial and four industrial properties. Alternative 3 not would require any displacements. Pavement would permanently displace 23 to 24.7 acres of soils, vegetation, and wildlife habitat and approximately one acre of wetland. The parkway overpass construction would create moderate to major visual impacts.

Preparation date: September 22, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GRIFFON MINING PROJECT, HUMBOLDT-TOIYABE NATIONAL FORESTS, WHITE PINE COUNTY, NEVADA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF APRIL 1997). AN - 16350415; 7102 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of the plan of operation of a gold mine by the Alta Gold Company (Alta) at the Griffon Mining Project on lands administered by the Ely Ranger District of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest (HTNF), located in eastern Nevada, is proposed. The area is located approximately 28 air-miles southwest of the city of Ely. Alta has identified two deposits that they anticipate would take approximately two years to mine, crush and leach. The project would involve open pit mining, crushing and heap leaching of the ore, the processing of the leachate to recover gold, and the development of associated waste rock dumps, site access roads, a haul road system, ore stockpiles, facility sites, growth medium stockpiles, and drainage and sediment control structures. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), were considered in the final EIS. The proposed action (Alternative B) would include two pits mined concurrently, three small waste rock dumps with 3H:1V slopes adjacent to the pits, and access to the facilities area via US Highway 6 and along Ellison Creek. The process facilities would include crushers, leach pads, and recovery process facility. The potential off-site facilities would include silt and gravel borrow sites, water well and associated pipeline, and access roads. The current reserves and mine plan call for mining 2.74 million tons of ore and 1.52 million tons of waste rock for a total of 4.26 million tons mined. The mining rate would be approximately 7,500 tons per day of ore and waste and the ore crushing would be approximately 4,800 tons per day. The preferred alternative (Alternative E) would consist of the same major project components as the proposed action, but would seek to avoid or minimize adverse effects on surface water, riparian and wetland habitat, cultural resources, wildlife habitat, and livestock forage. It would also involve the mining of only one pit at a time in order to permit the backfill of the first pit mined. This draft supplemental EIS addresses the expansion of the mining plan to include further development of Hammer Ridge Pit, the leach pad, the waste rock dumps, and the haul roads, and realignment of the mine access road (Forest Road 638). POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the mine operation would play a direct and indirect role in the local economy through wages paid to employees. White Pine County would benefit from increased tax revenue from mine development. Additional development proposed in the draft supplemental EIS would extend the life of the project one year, for an overall project life of five years, increasing the mine's productivity. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the present permit plan, the mining operation would disturb approximately 154 acres and 132 acres would be reclaimed. The expansion would disturb an additional 11.5 acres and reclaim an additional 4.3 acres. Additional activities under the expanded plan would also result in generation of approximately 1.3 million tons of waste. Erosion caused by the project could adversely affect Ellison Creek, which provides rainbow trout habitat. The habitat for sage grouse and non-game birds and mammals would result, and the disturbance of mountain shrub, pinyon and juniper, and mountain mahogany communities would adversely affect mule deer and elk. The habitat for goshawk, a federally-listed sensitive species, as well as other species of concern associated with the mine site and cottonwood galleries along Ellison Creek, could be impacted. The mining activities could adversely affect heritage sites as well as the Currant Mountain Wilderness.

AN - 16351446; 7096 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a US 93 bypass of the road crossing the Hoover Dam, located in southeastern Nevada and northwestern Arizona, is proposed. The project would involve the construction of a bridge and highway access facilities to allow for a new crossing of the Colorado River in the vicinity of the Hoover Dam. The project would extend approximately 3.5 miles, lying entirely within federal lands, namely, the Lake Mead National Recreation Area and the Hoover Dam Reservation. Four alternatives, including the No-Build Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The Promontory Point Alternative would cross Lake Mead approximately 1,000 feet upstream of the Hoover Dam, requiring the construction of approximately 2.7 miles of highway approach in Nevada, a 2,200-foot-long bridge, and approximately 0.9 miles of highway approach in Arizona. The Sugarloaf Mountain Alternative would cross the river about 1,500 feet downstream of the dam, requiring the construction of 2.2 miles of highway approach in Nevada, a 1,900-foot-long bridge, and approximately 1.1 miles of highway approach in Arizona. The Gold Strike Canyon Alternative would cross the river approximately one mile downstream of the dam, requiring the construction of approximately 2.2 miles of highway approach in Nevada, a 1,700-foot-long bridge, and 1.1 miles of highway approach in Arizona. The estimated cost of the alternatives is $198 million to $215 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The bridge and highway would correct alignment and capacity deficiencies on US 93 and reduce or eliminate truck traffic and through traffic from the Hoover Dam roadway. The reduction of traffic at the Hoover Dam would improve air quality in the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The right-of-way development would disturb 0.3 to 11.0 acres of desert wash habitat, 120 to 131 acres of desert tortoise habitat, and 20 to 55 acres of desert bighorn sheep habitat, and two alternatives could impact peregrine falcon breeding territory. From 50 to 73 acres of federal recreation land would be adversely affected, and the construction activities would impair recreational activities within the project corridor. The structures would alter the historic visual setting of the Hoover Dam, a national historic landmark. Up to five historic and four pre-historic sites eligible for or listed on the National Register of Historic Places could be adversely affected. The Gold Strike Canyon Alternative would increase noise at the upper end of the canyon significantly.

Preparation date: September 18, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - MEETING FLOW OBJECTIVES FOR THE SAN JOAQUIN RIVER AGREEMENT 1999-2010; FRESNO, MADERA, MERCED, SAN JOAQUIN, STANISLAUS, AND TUOLUME COUNTIES, CALIFORNIA. AN - 16348620; 7094 AB - PURPOSE: The provision of means of meeting the flow objectives for the Draft San Joaquin River Agreement (Agreement) for the period 1999-2010 in order to allow for development of an adaptive fishery management plan for the San Francisco Bay/Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Estuary, located in the Central Valley of California, is proposed. The estuary is critically important to California's natural environment and economy. The rivers and related storage and conveyance facilities relevant to the plan are located in Fresno, Madera, Mariposa, Merced, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, and Tuolumne counties. Affected rivers include the San Joaquin, Stanislaus, Tuolumne, and Merced. Key water storage facilities include the New Melones and New Don Pedro reservoirs and Lake McClure. The water is needed to support the Vernalis Adaptive Management Plan (VAMP) and to provide protective measures from fall-run chinook salmon in the San Joaquin River. The adaptive management study indicated that the flow requirement should change annually in response to hydrologic and biologic conditions. As a result, varying amounts of water would be needed. The Agreement provides for up to 137,500 acre-feet of water. Three alternatives, including the No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed plan, a 12-year water supply program outlined in the Agreement, would allow for the acquisition of water identified in the Agreement and use of the water for a pulse flow for a 31-day period at Vernalis during April and May as well as other flows identified in the Central Valley Project Improvement Act's water acquisition plan to facilitate migration and attraction of anadromous fish, including fall attraction flows and other flows identified as needed by the adaptive management study to support anadromous fish and provide other environmental benefits in the project area. More specifically, water for achieving the VAMP 31-day pulse flow for April and May would be capped at 110,000 acre-feet for any one year, though additional water could be purchased from willing sellers for VAMP implementation. Additional water (12,500 acre-feet) would be available from the Merced Irrigation District for delivery during October. Additional water (15,000 acre-feet), plus the difference between water committed to the VAMP pulse flow by Oakdale Irrigation District and what was actually used, would be available from that district. The results of the adaptive management studies would be evaluated to help determine the appropriate Vernalis flow objective after the year 2010. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Meeting the flow objectives for the San Joaquin River would restore ecological health and improvement water management for beneficial uses in and from the Bay/Delta Estuary, with particular reference to provision of habitat for anadromous fish. Sufficient information would be provided concerning necessary flows in the river system. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the carryover storage for Lake McClure would be reduced during below normal or dry hydrologic conditions. The storage capacity for Lake McClure and releases to the Merced River would be decreased by more than 10 percent during critical, dry, and below normal years during peak hydropower generation months.

Preparation date: September 18, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - DOS POBRES/SAN JUAN PROJECT, GRAHAM COUNTY, ARIZONA. AN - 16348234; 7092 AB - PURPOSE: The authorization of a mining plan of operations (MPO) development of mineral resources associated with the Dos Pobres and San Juan leachable copper ore deposits, located near the community of Safford in southeastern Arizona, is proposed. The Dos Pobres/San Juan Project, submitted to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) by Phelps Dodge Safford, Inc. (Phelps Dodge), would involve the implementation of an integrated mine plan employing conventional open-pit mining techniques with solution extraction and electrowinning technologies (SX/EW). The project would consist of two open-pit mines with one leach pad, a crushing and material-handling system, one shared SX/EW processing facility, and shared infrastructure and support facilities. The project would produce approximately 2.9 billion pounds of salable copper over its's 16-year production life. Project production would include the mining of 626 million tons of oxide and sulfide leach ore and 385 million tons of lower-grade and unmineralized material (development rock). Total minable mineral would amount to 1.01 billion tons resulting in a 0.6:1 non-ore-to-ore ratio. The construction of the SX/EW facility would require 15 months to complete. The construction of the crushing and material handling system would begin approximately two years after the construction of the SX/EW plant. A reclamation plan would be included in the project. The project activities would encompass 1,387 acres of private lands held by Phelps Dodge, 1,935 acres of BLM lands, and 10 acres of lands held by the state of Arizona. In addition to the MPO, the BLM is considering a land exchange with Phelps Dodge that would enable the Dos Pobres/San Juan Project to proceed without BLM oversight, assuming that the Phelps Dodge was able to obtain all necessary environmental permits. Authorizing the MPO and approving the land exchange constitutes two separate, but related, federal actions, both of which are addressed in this draft EIS. Alternatives include two mining and two land exchange alternatives, each category including one No Action Alternative. The mining proposal by Phelps Dodge, with some potential changes, constitutes the action mining alternative. The action land exchange alternative would involve exchange of 17,000 acres of public land desired by Phelps Dodge for approximately 3,858 acres held by Phelps Dodge in five counties in Arizona. The BLM, which constitutes the primary decision-making agency, has selected as its preferred alternative the action land exchange alternative under which Phelps Dodge would acquire title to the selected lands. The Army Corps of Engineer's preferred alternative is the least environmentally damaging, practicable mine plan alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The extraction of the copper ore would help meet the nation's need for this metal and provide substantial employment locally for the entire life of the project. Approximately 250 full-time workers would be employed during the operational phase of the project. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The mining activities would result in the temporary loss of grazing on 3,234 acres of public lands and the permanent loss of 1,935 acres of grazing on public lands. Major modifications to the landscape would have visual impacts, though these could be reduced to some degree. Mine blasting would increase noise and cause vibration for the 160-year life of the project. Long-term groundwater levels and changes in groundwater gradients would occur within the project area, and a Dodge Phelps seep would be permanently lost. A total of 34 archaeological sites, including 23 sites considered to be significant to local Indian tribes, would be destroyed.

Preparation date: September 18, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - PINES TRACT PROJECT, PINES FEDERAL COAL LEAST TRACT UTU-76195, MODIFICATION TO FEDERAL COAL LEASE U-63214, PERMIT AMENDMENT APPLICATION TO SUBSIDE BOX CANYON, EMERY AND SEVIER COUNTIES, UTAH. AN - 16348196; 7090 AB - PURPOSE: The leasing of federal coal reserves and the issuance of mining permits within the Manti-La Sal National Forest, located in central Utah, are proposed. The project would involve three components to be with respect to activities to be undertaken by Canyon Fuel Company, LCC (Canyon Fuel): the offering of the Pines coal lease tract (UTU-76195) for competitive leasing as delineated by the interagency tract delineation team; the modification of the Quitchupah lease (federal coal lease U-64213) by adding 150 acres of federal coal lands to provide maximum recovery of the coal reserves in the area; and the amending of the permit application package for the Southern Utah Fuel Company Mine, which is owned and operated by Canyon Fuel, to allow longwall full-extraction mining and subsidence of Box Canyon and associated perennial drainage features. Issues identified during scoping include those associated with topography, geology, subsidence, groundwater and surface water hydrology, vegetation, wildlife habitat, cultural and paleontological resources, land use, recreation, public safety, ranges and livestock, visual resources, noise, transportation and engineering, and socioeconomics. Four alternatives, including the No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The Bureau of Land Management's and the Forest Service's preferred alternative (Alternative C) would involve leasing the areas under standard BLM lease terms and conditions, with special coal lease stipulations (SCLSs) for protection of non-coal resources. It would address the issues identified through the application of 18 SCLSs presented in the forest plan designed to mitigate anticipated environmental effects. Additional stipulations regarding maximum recovery of reserves and abandonment of equipment underground would also apply. Full-extraction longwall mining would be employed for the majority of the Pines Coal lease tract. However, mining that would cause subsidence would not be allowed under perennial drainages in Box Canyon and the East Fork of Box Canyon or under escarpments in Link Canyon, Box Canyon, the East Fork of Box Canyon, and Muddy Creek, including Wiley's Fork. The alternative would involve the mining of 7,311 acres within the Pines Coal lease tract and 150 acres within the lease modification area associated with the Quitchupah lease. Alternative B would involve leasing the areas under standard BLM lease terms and conditions. Alternative D would involve leasing the areas under standard BLM lease terms and conditions, with SCLSs for protection of non-coal resources, allowing subsidence of perennial drainages and escarpments in the analysis area. Mining activities would result in recovery of 64.5 million tons of coal valued at $1.29 billion and representing $103.2 million in revenue. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would provide for mining of the affected tracts, while maximizing protection measures to assure consistency with applicable laws and regulations and forest plan objectives for protecting ecosystems. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately five feet of vertical subsidence would result in some areas. The exploration activities would disturb 40 acres of soils. If a mine were developed in Link Cyn, 100 additional acres of long-term disturbance would result. Disturbed areas would be reclaimed, but the mine at Link Cyn could hinder recreational access. Approximately three acres of wetland riparian habitat could be adversely affected. Mining activities would adversely affect northern three-toed woodpecker and link trail columbine, both of which are special status species. Future oil and gas leases could conflict with existing coal leases. Moderate increases in particulate emissions would be expected. Water available for livestock could decline as the mining activities would adversely affect nine ponds, and forage would decline.

Preparation date: September 17, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SONOMA-GERLACH AND PARADISE-DENIO MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK PLAN AMENDMENT, BLACK ROCK DESERT; HUMBOLDT, PERSHING, AND WASHOE COUNTIES, NEVADA. AN - 16358726; 7089 AB - PURPOSE: The amending of the management framework plans for the Sonoma-Gerlach and Paradise-Denio planning areas to provide for new management prescriptions for the Black Rock Desert, located in northwestern Nevada, is proposed. The amendment would respond to the ever increasing public use occurring on the West Arm of the Black Rock Desert. Concerns for the area's unique landscape and resources has moved interested groups and individuals to propose special designations for parts of the region including recommendations for Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (ACECs) and a National Conservation Area. The planning area would encompass 452,086 acres of public lands within portions of the West Arm in northwestern Nevada. No private lands would be directly affected. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, an ACEC, encompassing the entire 452,086 acres of public land would be established around the West Arm. The management actions within the ACEC would be directed towards protection of fragile resources, including portions of the National Historic Trail network and playa edge areas. The Soldier Meadows ACEC would not be expanded to 35,000 acres, but the 3,500 acres withdrawn from mineral exploitation and the other provisions of the ACEC would be carried forward. Other resource management actions would address cultural resources, concerns of Native Americans, paleontological features, recreational uses, visual qualities, wilderness values, mineral exploitation, acquisition of private land holdings and access easements, and communication sites. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The amendments would assist in the management of recreational and other uses in the Black Rock Desert Planning Area while minimizing adverse impacts to cultural and natural resources in the area. The management provisions would benefit soils, fish and wildlife habitat, including habitat for wild horses and burro habitat, watersheds and riparian areas. The unique character and scenery of the area would be preserved. Sites of concern to Native Americans would receive additional protection. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The management restrictions would reduce the number of days scheduled for the Burning Man event, resulting in a potential loss of 5,000 participants and up to 62,500 user days and, perhaps, more if this event were to have continued to grow in popularity. This could reduce potential expenditures by the public by as much as $100,000 in the Gerlach-Empire area and as much as $1.0 million in the Reno-Sparks area. Should the organizers of the event decide to use an alternative location, all local expenditures deriving from the event could be lost. Locatable mineral restrictions could have a discouraging effect on small and high-risk operations. Leasable mineral restrictions would limit geothermal exploration and development, and oil exploration would be less likely to occur. Limiting land tenure adjustments could adversely affect efforts to provide access to public lands and to consolidate land blocks. Leasing restrictions would limit certain land uses by private landowners. Mineral and geothermal activities that were allowed could damage sites of concern to Native Americans.

AN - 16358122; 7083 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a right-of-way permit for the Cross Cascade Pipeline Project between Snohomish County and the City of Pasco, across the state of Washington, is proposed. The Olympic Pipe Line Company (OPL), the applicant, currently transports refined petroleum products for shippers in Washington from four northwest refineries (Tosco, Arco, Texaco, and Shell) to various customers in Washington and Oregon via OPL's pipeline from the refineries south of Portland. OPL would construct and operate a 230-mile buried common carrier petroleum products pipeline passing through portions of Snohomish, King, Kittitas, Adams, Grant, and Franklin counties as well as the cities of North Bend, Snoqualmie, Kittitas, and Pasco. The corridor would begin near Woodinville in western Washington and terminate at an existing storage and distribution facility in Pasco in eastern Washington. The pipeline project would include up to six pump stations, 29 block valves, a delivery facility on an 0.9-acre site in Pasco, and a products terminal on a 27-acre site adjacent to Interstate 90 near the town of Kittitas. The Kittitas terminal would ultimately include nine aboveground liquid petroleum storage tanks, providing an overall storage capacity of 36.1 million gallons as well as a 420,000-gallon transmix and relief tank, truck loading racks, and parking for tanker trucks. The pipeline, which would constitute an extension of the 400-mile OPL system, would have an initial capacity of 60,000 barrels (2.52 million gallons) per day, with three pump stations in operation. Addition of three more pump stations would increase the system capacity to up to 110,000 barrels (4.62 million gallons) per day. Approximately 109 miles, or 47 percent of the pipeline corridor would be located within existing cleared right-of-way, and 56 miles would be located immediately adjacent to cleared corridors. Alternatives considered in this draft EIS include the No Action Alternative, three options with respect to the Columbia River approach and five options of crossing the Columbia River. The construction of the line would take at least one year and, perhaps, longer if construction windows were required to reduce impacts to fish and wildlife. The estimated cost of pipeline construction in approximately $105.0 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The operation of the pipeline would respond to requests from shippers for a less expensive and more direct means of transporting refined petroleum products from western Washington to central and eastern Washington. The existence of the pipeline would obviate the need to off-load petroleum products from the existing pipeline onto tanker trucks and river barges, from ocean barges onto river barges, or from Puget Sound barges onto trucks via Harbor Island. The pipeline would also be more efficient for those who can pick up petroleum product in Kittitas rather than trucking it from Seattle across the Snoqualmie or Stevens Passes. The risk of accidental spills present during transfer from one transport mode to another would be reduced. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 29 percent of the corridor would lie on property not currently used for utility corridor purposes; these lands would be removed from other public uses and exposed to the risk of pipeline spills where no such risk currently exists. Spills would endanger surface water and groundwater quality. Numerous perennial bodies of water and 17.1 acres of wetland would be traversed, resulting in potential sedimentation and other impacts adversely affecting water quality and fish habitat. The construction activities would disturb 540 acres of shrub-steppe vegetation. Four population of state-listed threatened or endangered plant species would be adversely affected. Recreational and visual resources, including those associated with trails, golf courses, and state parks, would be adversely affected. The influx of construction workers would place stress on housing resources. The project would be inconsistent with the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan due to the need to removal standing second-growth trees on lands designated as late-successional reserves. Shippers using alternative means of transporting petroleum product would face economic losses once the pipeline was in operation.

Preparation date: September 10, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WHISKEYTOWN UNIT DRAFT GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLAN, TRINITY NATIONAL RECREATION AREA, SHASTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36406359; 7077 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a new plan for management, use, and development of the Whiskeytown Unit of the Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area, located in northern California, is proposed. The 42,500-acre park lies approximately eight miles west of downtown Redding. Elevations range from 800 feet in lower Clear Creek below Whiskeytown Dam to over 6,200 feet atop Shasta Bally. The vegetation is a mixture of pine forest, riparian associations, and chaparral. Whiskeytown Lake, the centerpiece of the area created by an earthfill dam on Clear Creek, has a surface area of approximately 3,200 acres. The park has averaged 850,000 visitors annually for the past four years. Four alternatives, including the No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed alternative (Alternative C) would emphasize nature-oriented, water-based recreation, such as sailing, canoeing, and fishing, and expand opportunities for visitor discovery and for enjoyment of the significant natural and cultural resources of the park as well as opportunities for escape from the noise and crowing associated with urban and suburban environments. The use of personal watercraft, which has a major negative impact on the quality of low-impact, nature-oriented experiences, would be eliminated. Increased emphasis would be placed on visitor enjoyment of backcountry opportunities and enhanced interpretation of cultural and natural resources, including Gold Rush history, archaeology, Wintu indigenous culture, watershed restoration, threatened and endangered species, and fire management. Staff increases would be effected to augment resource management and protection. Staff would also be added with respect to education and interpretation functions. A Clear Creek Watershed Management Education Center would be established to promote watershed restoration throughout the region. Recreational facilities on the lake would be modified to provide a broader range of opportunities, including boat-in and walk-in rustic tent sites near the mouth of Boulder Creek and opportunities for boat camping on the lake. Backcountry touring and camping opportunities would also be expended. The estimated capital costs for the proposed alternative, including costs of major facilities replacements, are $19.7 million. The estimated annual operating costs are $3.46 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In addition to providing additional recreational opportunities appropriate to the purpose of the park, the management plan would preserve the resources associated with the lake and the surrounding lands. Visitor use would be managed within the carrying capacity of the available recreational resources. Air quality monitoring within the park would be improved. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The development of the new boat-in and walk-in campsites, an around-the-lake-trail, new primitive backcountry campsites, and a road picnic and staging area at Merry Mountain would disturb soil and vegetation and associated wildlife habitat.

Preparation date: September 4, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CONTRA COSTA WATER DISTRICT MULTIPURPOSE PIPELINE PROJECT, CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36405928; 7075 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a multipurpose pipeline (MPP), a raw water pipeline, and ancillary facilities to provide for the water supply needs of the Contra Costa Water District (CCWD), located in western California, is proposed. The CCWD currently transports raw water via the Contra Costa Canal, which is owned by the Bureau of Reclamation and operated and maintained by the CCWD under contract. The canal, which constitutes the only water conveyance facility in the area, is vulnerable to damage by earthquake or other disaster. Moreover, the canal lacks adequate conveyance capacity to meet existing plus projected future water demand within the CCWD service area. Finally, the CCWD needs additional capacity to relieve its Bollman Water Treatment Plant in Martinez, which is approaching its operating capacity. Issues addressed in considering the alternatives include those related to land use, traffic, recreation, threatened and endangered species, and surface water and groundwater resources. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the 20-mile MPP would carry treated water from the Randall-Bold Water Treatment Plant in Oakley to the CCWD's Treated Water Service Area. With a capacity of 25 million gallons per day (mgd), the MPP would free up capacity in the canal currently used to meet customer demand in the Treated Water Service Area. The project would also include the construction of a four-mile raw water pipeline and pump station to bypass existing bottlenecks along the canal. The pipeline facilities would be underground. The MPP would be supported by of a pumping station equipped with five 1,700-horsepower (1,700-hp) pumps. The raw water pipeline would be supported by a pumping station equipped with five 250-hp pumps, giving the pipeline a capacity of 36 mgd. During periods when the tunnel containing the canal through eastern Antioch reaches capacity, water would be pumped out of the canal and into the raw water pipeline allowing the water to be conveyed past the tunnel and emptied back into the canal downstream of the tunnel. To improve canal flow, the MPP project would also include modifications to existing features of the canal, specifically, the canal gates and the Neroly Blending Facility. The two action alternatives consist of MPP alignment options. The alternative alignment lying within the canal right-of-way has been selected as the preferred alternative for the eastern section of the MPP, which extends from the Randall-Bold Water Treatment Plant to a point near the intersection of Port Chicago Highway and Willow Pass Road. The preferred alignment for the western section of the MPP has not yet been determined. Facilities construction would commence in the year 2000, and the project would be operation in the year 2002. The estimated capital cost of the project is $110 million (in 1998 dollars). POSITIVE IMPACTS: The reliability and capacity of the CCWD water supply system would be improved significantly in both the near-term and long-term. Freeing up canal capacity would enable the district to meet growing raw water demands along the canal. Firefighting flows during disasters and operational flexibility of the CCWD system would be enhanced. Emergency water supply to municipal customers from both sides of the service area would be provided. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activities would disturb other land uses, including those related to wildlife habitat, wetland, public services and utilities, recreation and visual resources, and would result in disruption of traffic. The ambient noise and air pollutant levels would increase during construction, and crews could encounter hazardous materials sites. Erosion and accidental spills from construction could adversely affect water quality. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.).

Preparation date: September 4, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - DEATH VALLEY NATIONAL PARK GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLAN; INYO AND SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES, CALIFORNIA, AND ESMERALDA AND NYE COUNTIES, NEVADA. AN - 36417038; 7069 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the 3.3-million-acre Death Valley National Park in the northeastern Mojave Desert, located in southeastern California and southern Nevada, is proposed. The general management plan would serve as the initial overall management strategy over the next 10 to 15 years. A general management plan focuses on the purposes of the unit to be managed, its significant attributes, its mission in relation to the overall mission of the National Park Service (NPS), activities considered to be appropriate within these constraints, and resource protection strategies. It also provides guidelines for visitor use and development of facilities for visitor enjoyment and administration of the preserve. Three alternatives, including the No Action Alternative (Alternative 2), which would perpetuate the existing management regime, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (Alternative 1) would seek to extend the existing management strategies in place for the previous national monument, and the NPS mission and policies, to the management of the resources within the new lands added to the unit in 1994. It would also attempt to incorporate the designation of 95 percent of the park as wilderness into the management approach. Feral burros and horses would be removed from the park in order to achieve the mission of managing the unit for native desert species. The management plan would recognize the need to work cooperatively with the Bureau of Land Management on adjacent lands, where their mandate is to maintain viable herds of wild horses and burros. Grazing would continue on new lands. A number of activity level plans would address site-specific issues, such as management of the Saline Valley Warm Springs and of backcountry and wilderness areas. Inholdings by and mineral interests held by private owners would be acquired from willing sellers where proposed uses conflict with the primary mission of preserving resources and providing for visitor enjoyment. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would help insure that Death Valley would remain a self-sustaining natural environment and a cultural landscape where native desert ecosystems were assured for future generations. The park would be managed to perpetuate a sense of discovery and adventure for visitors. Traditional economic uses of park land would be sustained in as much as such uses were compatible with the park mission. Archeological and historic sites would benefit from enhanced protection. Native Americans living in the area would benefit from greater opportunities for government-to-government contact. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Wildlife management activities, particularly the removal of the burro population, would result in the short-term disturbance of desert vegetation and wildlife. Some visitors would consider the absence of burros to be an adverse impact, and the burro removal would cost approximately $450,000. The acquisition of private inholdings would remove the acquired properties from tax rolls. Changes proposed for the Saline Valley area could seem too structured to Saline Valley Warm Springs advocacy groups. LEGAL MANDATES: California Desert Protection Act of 1994 (P.L. 103-433).

Preparation date: September 1, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - LAKE CRESCENT, OLYMPIC NATIONAL PARK, CLALLAM COUNTY, WASHINGTON. AN - 36414862; 7068 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Lake Crescent area of Olympic National Park, approximately 18 miles west of Port Angeles along US 101, located in northwestern coastal Washington, is proposed. The plan would address the potential impact resulting from increased volume and intensity of use at Lake Crescent and guide future management decisions concerning the protection and public use of the area. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative B), which would continue the park's existing management activities with limited improvements made only on an as-needed basis as funding becomes available, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative A) would recognize the need to both protect the natural environment and support recreational interests of visitors in a manner that takes advantage of the history of the lake and surrounding area. Specific actions would include the relocation of the store and the reconfiguration of the campground at Fairholm and the provision of additional parking at the site; the provision of an accessible restroom with potable water and sewer hookups to the treatment facility at Bovee's Meadow; the possible increase in the number of rooms available at Lake Crescent Lodge replacement or repair of the dock at Barnes Point; the removal of A-frame rental units and replacement of recreational vehicle camping with cabins at Log Cabin, with units to be constructed away from the lakeshore; the discontinuation of the overflow campsite at La Poel; the provision of toilet, parking, and overlook facilities at East Beach; the provision of interpretive displays and accessible toilets and improvement of the Spruce Railroad grade and the North Shore picnic area at North Shore; the improvement of visitor services and facilities throughout the Lake Crescent area, including establishment of US 101 as a parkway and emphasizing the human and natural history of Lake Crescent and, possibly, the establishing of an information center on US 101; the improvement of transportation and circulation facilities including, possibly, widening East Beach, Piedmont, and Lyre River roads to ease their use by bicyclists; and the enhancing of the use of water recreation by maintaining shoreline accesses for boats and establishing a 40-mile-per-hour speed limit and wake limit zones on the lake. Alternative C would emphasize increased recreational opportunities for visitors. Alternative D would emphasize the protection of the watershed's natural resources while continuing to support recreational use of the area. Alternative E, submitted by the Friends of Lake Crescent, would include actions similar to those incorporated into Alternatives A and C. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The development plan would enhance visitor use and enjoyment of the recreation opportunities while recognizing the lake's high scenic natural resources. The pristine quality of the water and lake ecology would be protected. A variety of outdoor experiences and recreation uses, which would minimize conflicts between recreational users and be compatible with the protection of park resources and values, would be provided. A range of overnight accommodations and other visitor facilities, which would keep with this historic setting and character of the area, would be available. Critical spawning and rearing areas in the watershed which are used by the lake's unique fish species would be protected. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: There would be minor, short-term decreases in air quality during construction. The run-off from construction sites could cause short-term siltation of the lake. There would be cumulative effects on the vegetation at Lake Crescent with substantial recreational, transportation, and residential development. Rare aquatic plant species would be put at added risk from recreational use. The effects on known wildlife populations would be primarily due to disturbances during construction and the removal of portions of habitat.

AN - 36406779; 7066 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the 1.6-million-acre Mojave National Preserve in the northeastern Mojave Desert, located in southeastern California, is proposed. The general management plan would serve as the initial overall management strategy over the next 10 to 15 years. A general management plan focuses on the purposes of the unit to be managed, its significant attributes, its mission in relation to the overall mission of the National Park Service, activities considered to be appropriate within these constraints, and resource protection strategies. It also provides guidelines for visitor use and development of facilities for visitor enjoyment and administration of the preserve. Three alternatives, including the No Action Alternative (Alternative 2), which would perpetuate the existing management regime, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (Alternative 1) would implement a plan which envisions the preserve as a natural environment and a cultural landscape where the protection of native desert ecosystems and processes would be assured for future generations. The protection and perpetuation of native species in a self-sustaining environment would be the primary long-term goal. This would mean minimizing development inside the preserve, including prevention of the proliferation of signs, new campgrounds, and interpretive exhibits. Areas adjacent to the preserve would provide the majority of support services for visitors. Maximum opportunities for roadside camping, backcountry camping, and access to the preserve via existing roads would be emphasized. The proposal would seek funding for the complete historic restoration of the Kelso Depot and its use as a museum and interpretive facility. Resource preservation goals would be balanced with other land uses in the area, including grazing, hunting, mining, and use of utility corridors. The acquisition of most of the 230,000 acres of inholdings from willing sellers would be encouraged. Burros would be removed from the preserve. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would probably accelerate the recovery of the endangered desert tortoise as well as improve the outlook of other plant and animal species native to the desert. Archaeologic and historic sites would receive additional protection and, in some cases, would be enhanced. Native Americans would benefit from improved communication protocols and establishment of cooperative agreements. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Wildlife management activities, particularly removal of the burro population, would result in short-term disturbance of desert vegetation and wildlife due to noise and inadvertent trampling by capture crews. Some visitors would consider the absence of burros to be an adverse impact, and burro removal and adoption would cost approximately $2.2 million. The development of campgrounds and other facilities would also result in disturbance to vegetation and soils. The acquisition of private inholdings would remove the acquired properties from tax rolls, and there would be some loss of jobs if grazing allotments were acquired.

Program goals were to evaluate the effectiveness of the Utah operational cloud seeding program and to recommend improvements. Sophisticated numerical modeling was used in conjunction with the observational programs. Amounts and distributions of SLW (supercooled liquid water) cloud were investigated, as was transport and dispersion of ground-released seeding agents and tracer gases. Several experiments directly monitored ice crystals and snowfall rates resulting from either silver iodide (AgI) or liquid propane seeding. Results showed frequent SLW in excess of natural convesion to snowfall, suggesting significant seeding potential. The SLW was concentrated near the terrain where temperatures were relatively warm. When valley-released AgI was transported to cloud levels, resulting ice crystal formation was usually too limited for significant snowfall augmentation. However, marked enhancement of ice crystal concentrations and snowfall rates resulted from a number of high altitute releases of both AgI and liquid propane. Propane seeding was effective within even slightly supercooled clouds. Several recommendations were given for improving the operational seeding programs effectiveness.

AN - 36406655; 7047 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a new 20-year management plan for Glacier National Park (Glacier), located in northwestern Montana, is proposed. The 1.02-million-acre tract constitutes a national park, an international peace park, a world heritage site, and a biosphere reserve. The overall management philosophy is to guide park activities to retain its classic western national park character. Each year the park attracts almost 2.0 million visitors. Visitor use and resource protection decision are to perpetuate this tradition. Large portions of the park are to be managed for their wild character and for the integrity of Glacier's unique natural heritage, while traditional visitor use services and facilities are to remain. Geographic areas and management zones provide the foundation for this strategy. Six geographic areas, each with its own management philosophy, are described. Management zones are delineated for each area in which various levels of development and types of activities would be permitted. During the planning process, publicly identified desires, with respect to the park, included the continuation of current access and visitor uses; the management of the park to protect resources while allowing visitor use; the continuation of wilderness status for the park's backcountry area; the preservation of wildlife habitat; and the coordination of management with adjacent landowners to protect resources and emphasize retention of facilities within the park. Critical issues identified during scoping include those related to visitor use of the 52-mile Going-to-the-Sun Road, preservation of the Going-to-the-Sun Road, preservation of the historic hotels and visitor services, scenic air tours, personal watercraft, winter use, Divide Creek flooding, and the west side discovery center and museum. Topics considered in addressing impacts of the alternatives include those related to water resources; scenic resources; air quality; soils; vegetation, including state-listed rare plant species; wildlife, including federally listed threatened and endangered species; aquatic resources, including federally listed threatened and endangered species and state-listed rare species; natural sound; biological diversity; cultural resources, including archaeological resources, properties listed on the National Register of Historic Places, national historic landmarks, national historic districts, and other sites of cultural significance; the rights of the Blackfeet and the Confederated Salish-Kootenai American Indian Tribes; regional and local economies; local and national visitors, private land holding inside the park's boundary; energy consumption; and environmental justice with respect to minority populations. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative A) would permanently ban personal watercraft, prohibit all commercial sightseeing tours over Glacier, and preserve national landmark and national registered properties. The Going-of-the-Sun Road would be closed between Avalanche and Logan Pass and then between Rising Sun and Logan Pass. The reconstruction would take approximately four to six years, with the lower sections of the road taking two years. Day use would be expanded by plowing some roads, providing parking and opening a campstore in the Lake McDonald area. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The implementation of the management plan would ensure preservation and appropriate use of park resources for the next 20 years. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction on the Going-to-the-Sun Road would result in minimal short-term adverse impacts on water quality. There would be local disturbance where additional roadside pullouts were developed and at the T-intersection. The development of pullouts would result in the loss of vegetation along the Going-to-the-Sun Road. Bald Eagles could be adversely affected by the increasing levels of human activity near Lake McDonald and Saint Mary Lake. Wolves could be adversely affected by the increasing levels of development in Saint Mary Valley, where wolves are recolonizing. Grizzly bears could be adversely affected by increasing levels of visitor use and fast-track reconstruction along the Going-to-the-Sun Road. Local businesses and the concessioner would be adversely affected in the short term. LEGAL MANDATES: National Park Service Organic Act of 1916 (P.L.

AN - 36404805; 7040 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a dam and reservoir to provide late-season irrigation water to the Savery-Little Snake Water Conservancy District, located in southern Wyoming, is proposed. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Action alternatives would include the construction of a dam and reservoir on Savery Creek using one of two possible designs, construction of a dam and reservoir on Dutch Joe Creek, and a conservation alternative involving changes in agricultural practices within the basin, improvements to irrigated lands, and rehabilitation of existing structures facilitating irrigation activities. Depending on the dam alternative considered, the reservoirs would range in size from 300 to 480 acres at normal pool elevation; any reservoir alternative would supply 12,000 acre-feet of late-season irrigation water during an average of eight out of every ten years. Downstream flows would be reduced during the spring and increased in summer months. The applicant, the Wyoming Water Development Commission, has chosen a location on Savery Creek approximately 42 miles upstream of the Little Snake River, as the site for the dam and reservoir. The selected design would involve a dam and reservoir without a minimum pool. The reservoir would occupy 420 acres, contain 18,000 acre-feet or water at normal pool elevation. The reservoir would have a maximum depth of 120 feet. Water levels could change as much as 105 feet between May and October. The dead pool would have a storage capacity of 48 acre-feet. Reservoir storage would be sufficient to provide a minimum flow water release equal to the lesser of natural inflow or 12 cubic feet per second. The reservoir would stratify thermally during summer months; a multi-point release structure would allow water from different depths within the reservoir to be released. The estimated cost of the applicant's preferred alternative is $28.75 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The operation of the dam and reservoir would provide irrigation water for downstream agricultural uses. Increased summer base-flow in Savery Creek would improve habitat for trout, and the reservoir's minimum pool would be used by the Wyoming Game and Fish Department as a brood site for a state sensitive species, the Colorado River cutthroat trout, whose offspring would be used to enhance the species' population in the Little Snake River basin. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The average annual flow of the Little Snake River would be reduced by 10,800 acre-feet. Reservoir operation would interrupt the normal transportation of stream sediments and scour a portion of the stream bottom downstream of the dam. The salinity in the lower Little Snake River would increase. The 480-acre reservoir would inundate 8.4 miles of perennial stream, 16 acres of wetland, 52 acres of riparian shrubland, 480 acres of seasonal range for elk, mule deer, and pronghorn antelope, and 11 cultural resource sites potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic Places.

AN - 36411539; 7037 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for Gettysburg National Military Park, located in Gettysburg in southern Pennsylvania, is proposed. The park is the site of one of the most significant battles of the Civil War. Four alternatives, including continuation of the present management plan (Alternative A) are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative B would rehabilitate the park to re-institute the pattern of open fields and wooded areas present in 1863 in the Major Battle Action Area (MBAA) and manage contemporary agricultural uses to protect landscape and historic resources. This alternative would move most park facilities, including the visitor center and cyclorama, to sites outside the MBAA, enabling rehabilitation of the battle landscape at the existing sites of these facilities. New park facilities, including the visitor center, would provide necessary services with minimum impact to the historic landscape. Alternative C (the proposed action) would incorporate nearly all elements of Alternative B while adding elements to effect the rehabilitation of small-scale landscape elements and structures within the MBAA to portray an historic landscape containing natural and human elements which were significant to the outcome of the battle. Alternative D would incorporate most of the measures of Alternative C while adding elements to effect the rehabilitation of small-scale landscape and human elements across the entirety of the park. In addition, Alternative D would restore original design elements of the commemorative landscape system of monuments, avenues, and monument groups. All action alternatives would rehabilitate the original part of the Soldiers' National Cemetery to a level consistent with the overall concept of each alternative. The estimated total capital expenditure for the proposed plan is $63.6 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The restoration alternatives (Alternative B, Alternative C, and Alternative D) would improve central and park-wide interpretation, while placing the events of Gettysburg in the larger context of the Civil War and the Gettysburg campaign. These alternatives would also significantly expand partnerships with the Borough of Gettysburg and other entities in the area. In addition, the action restoration would incorporate measures to manage visitor uses and transportation, responding to visitor desires to experience the battlefield while minimizing resource damage. Habitat for species dependent on open space would be increased. The gradual transition to low- or no-till farming and the removal of cattle from wetlands would improve soil and water conditions, and actions to limit visitor impact would reduce adverse impacts from soil compaction. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The removal of non-historic vegetation would reduce habitat for some forest-dependent species. The restoration activities would result in short-term soil disturbance. The development of the visitor center would adversely affect 15 to 18 acres of land, including 10 acres of prime farmland and two acres of wetland.

AN - 16337946; 7029 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of comprehensive management and use plans for the Oregon, California, Mormon Pioneer, and Pony Express national historic trails, located in several states in the western United States, is proposed. The trails commemorate important aspects of American history in the 19th century. They facilitated the settlement of a large portion of the western United States, fostered commerce, and encouraged the development of a transportation and communication network that brought the country closer together. The trails also dramatically affected American Indian culture and resulting in the loss of much of their land and resources. The trails inspired a romantic movement in art, literature, and cinema that has had a tremendous impact on American popular culture. The trails did not follow a single route; rather numerous branches and cutoffs were used by the emigrants heading West. The corridor for the trail routes covers close to 14,000 miles in portions of 13 states and includes many significant cultural and natural resources. The comprehensive plan outlined in this draft EIS would serve as a coordinating docent providing broad-based policies, guidelines, and standards for administering the trails to ensure the protection of trail resources, their interpretation, and their continued use. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (Alternative 2) would focus on enhancing resource preservation and visitor use through integrated development and programming and implementation of a comprehensive strategy for resource protection, including an ambitious program to inventory and monitor resources that would bring together, in one location, currently dispersed information. The Long Distance Trails Office, based in Salt Lake City, would take a leading role in implementing the plan. The office would administer the four trails by fostering better communication along federal, state, and local resource managers and nonprofit trails organizations. It would also serve as a clearinghouse for information about trail routes, significant resources, and technical assistance for management, resource protection, interpretation, and visitor use. A geographic information system (GIS) has been used to map most of the routes and locations of all the high-potential sites and segments associated with the trails. This data, in conjunction with the computerized data set of trail resources generated during the planning process, would become the starting point for a systematic and coordinated effort to use the Salt Lake City office as the central repository for all trail resource information. In addition to administrative and management, resource protection, interpretation, visitor experience, and use components, the plan would include components to promote study of historic trails resources, archeological resources, land ownership and use, GIS mapping, American Indians, trail route and site verification, actions involving the U.S. Army, additional routes for the Oregon and California trails, and visitor use monitoring. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Either alternative plan would balance resource preservation and visitor use goals to provide for the outdoor recreation needs of an expanding population while promoting preservation of public access and enjoyment and appreciation of the outdoors and historic resources of the nation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The installation of route signs along paved highways, trail markers, and interpretive waysides would alter the surroundings visually. Increased visitor use, including foot traffic and use of all-terrain vehicles could increase erosion, soil compaction throughout the trails corridor, and vegetation trampling both on and off the trails. Archaeological resources could be destroyed due to vandalism, illegal soliciting, and inadvertent damage. LEGAL MANDATES: National Trails System Act of 1968 (16 U.S.C. 1241 et seq.).

AN - 16353421; 7024 AB - PURPOSE: The operation of an open-pit gold mine by the Newmont Gold Company in the Trenton Canyon deposit, located in northern Nevada, is proposed. The project area is located 12 miles south of Lone Tree Mine, which is 34 miles east of Winnemucca and 18 miles west of Battle Mountain on Interstate 80. Located on the northwestern flank of Battle Mountain, the Trenton Canyon project spans Trout and Cottonwood creeks. Most of the project area would be located on private lands that have been previously mined, but use of public lands would be necessary for corner crossings of water and communication lines, power lines, and road rights-of-way. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. The proposed action would involve the expansion of existing approved facilities and the addition of facilities. The existing facilities which would be expanded would include two nearby open pits (Valmy and North Peak), two overburden disposal areas, the heap leach facility, and the access road. The expansion would include an open pit mining area at Trenton Canyon on the east side of the ridge above Cottonwood Creek, 11 overburden disposal areas, two heap leach facilities, and other ancillary facilities. In addition, exploration activities would continue to be conducted. The access road would be realigned and widened from 60 feet to 100 feet. Mining would proceed 24 hours a day for up to seven years; an estimated 21 million tons of material would be mined annually. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would result in the employment of an average of 20 workers during the construction period and 130 permanent workers through the life of the operation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Combined with existing facilities, the proposed action would result in overall disturbance of 2,682 acres, including 969 acres of public land and 1,713 acres of private land. Constructing and operating the mining facilities within the Cottonwood Creek watershed could potentially alter the creek's flow, reduce surface water runoff, and change surface runoff characteristics. Mine operations would result in the loss of forage and habitat for mule deer and other wildlife. The waste rock dump sites would create a visual contrast with the surrounding countryside.

The study area includes several known areas of mineralization including the Cornwallis Peninsula, Duncan Canal, Woewodski Island, Zarembo Island, and Groundhog Basin. Duncan Canal, Woewodski Island, and Groundhog Basin were the focus of the 1997 field effort. Bureau geologists and engineers visited a total of 48 mines and prospects and took 311 rock chip and stream sediment samples. This report provides results from samples taken in the 1996-97 field seasons. The Duncan Canal area, Woewodski Island, and Zarembo Island contain several occurrences of volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) mineralization hosted in Triassic rocks of the Alexander Terrane. The Alexander Terrane extends along the length of Southeast Alaska, and includes the Triassic age high-grade Greens Creek silver-lead-zinc-gold VMS deposit on northern Admiralty Island. Site specific examinations during this study coupled with newly created geophysical data and 1:63,360 scale geologic maps will help to more completely describe this VMS-style mineralization. The Groundhog Basin area contains a variety of deposit types, most importantly replacement-style mineralization and polymetallic veins. Several known occurrences were visited that had previously not been reported. Samples taken in 1997 indicate sufficient silver, lead and zinc mineralization to conduct further work in this area.

AN - 36416904; 7062 AB - PURPOSE: The leasing of land for oil and gas exploration and development in the Helena National Forest and the Elkhorn Mountain portion of the Deerlodge National Forest, located in Montana, is proposed. The 853,200-acre study area is located within all or part of three distinct mountain ranges: the Big Belts, the Elkhorns, and the Continental Divide of the Northern Rockies. The area contains many diverse habitats ranging from the Missouri River bottoms to alpine mountain peaks. Issues of concern include the effects of leasing on big game; inventoried roadless areas and wilderness areas; biological diversity; threatened, endangered, and sensitive species; recreation opportunities and experience; cultural resources; socioeconomic conditions; and soil, air, and water. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 2), were considered in the final EIS of April 1995. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 7) certain restrictions would be placed on oil and gas development in order to protect grizzly bear habitat. Of the 853,200 acres legally available for leasing, a no-surface-occupancy (NSO) stipulation would apply to 460,000 acres; a controlled-surface-use stipulation or a timing limitation would apply to 364,400 acres; and standard lease terms of the Bureau of Land Management would apply to 28,800 acres. In addition to protecting grizzly bear habitat, the NSO stipulations would protect wild and scenic rivers, watersheds containing cutthroat trout populations, and sensitive soils from both mineral development and road construction. The estimated payroll for drilling four wildcat wells is $4.7 million. This final supplement to the final EIS of April 1997 considers the cumulative effects of oil and gas leasing, including the effects on four distinct landscape areas within the project area. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Over the 15-year period which is considered in this final EIS, the projected lease revenues would be an estimated $8.0 million. The construction and drilling activities would provide temporary employment opportunities for the local work force. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Air pollutant emissions from gas-driven field engines and emergency gas flaring could be significant in the area. Soil, vegetation, and wildlife and livestock forage in the immediate drilling areas would be disturbed. Any development activity in a roadless area would compromise the area's wilderness character and adversely affect its future status as a designated wilderness area.

AN - 16344857; 7016 AB - PURPOSE: The offering of federal coal reserves under 5,235.15 acres of land located in the Carbon Basin Coal Project Area (CBCPA), located in southern Wyoming, is proposed. The CBCPA encompasses 18,360 acres containing an estimate 34.5 tons of low-sulphur bituminous surface-minable coal and 197.1 million tons of underground-minable coal. The area under consideration at this point encompasses 11 discontinuous parcels interspersed within private and state lands. The lease area is located approximately three miles north and northeast of Elk Mountain and 10 miles southeast of Hanna on a mixture of federal, state, and private surface ownership; coal ownership is also mixed. The reserves comprise approximately 149.7 million tons of federal coal, which would be offered in a competitive lease sale subject to standard and special stipulations. The federal coal, which makes up approximately 39 percent of the total estimated reserve, would be combined with state and private holdings to develop a feasible mining unit. If the Bureau of Land Management were to decide not to lease the federal coal, the private and state holdings would likely be surface mined, and the federal surface-minable coal would be bypassed. Ark Land Company of Saint Louis, Missouri, has applied for the tract, which would be mined by Arch of Wyoming, LCC, an affiliate of Ark Land Company, which has operated mines in the adjacent Hanna Basin since 1972. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The project would entail the development, operation, and reclamation of a surface and an underground coal mine using convention mining methods. Mine development would begin in 1999. Surface mining and reclamation would continue for approximately 13 years. Underground mining would commence in the year 2005 and continue through 2023. To provide power for mining operations, a 115-kilovolt (kV) power line would be constructed and connected to one of two sources, either the Western Area Power Administration near Medicine Bow, Wyoming, or PacifiCorp's 230-kV transmission line, currently under construction to serve SeaWest Energy Corporation's windpower generating facility. Coal would be transported from the mine area north to the Union Pacific Railroad mainline. Ten transportation options are considered in this draft EIS. The mine would be constructed, operated, and reclaimed according to state and federal rules, regulations, and guidelines. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Coal mined from the leased area would help satisfy the region's need for cheap sources of energy. The mine development and operation would maintain employment for workers now employed at two nearby surface coal mines, both of which would likely be mined out by the year 2000. Mining activities would otherwise contribute to the local, regional, and state economies. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Mining activities would have widespread, permanent effects on topography, including subsidence, adversely affecting 7,322 acres (257 acres of which have already been affected by surface mining). Wetland, vegetation, soil, and water quality would also be adversely affected. Though mining activities would release a significant amount of particulate pollutants, federal standards would not be exceeded. Unrecoverable coal would be bypassed and lost. Haul traffic would present a safety hazard on local roads. Project activities would temporarily disturb prong horn and mule deer winter range and overlapping crucial winter range, mountain plover foraging and nesting habitat, and sage grouse breeding, nesting, and wintering habitat. Five threatened, endangered, or candidate species could be adversely affected. Mining facilities would be visible to some passersby. There would be a loss of 29 cultural resource sites. Approximately 354 million kilowatt hours of energy would be consumed by mining operations.

AN - 16343276; 7017 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of an integrated activity plan, including leasing options for the development of oil and gas reserves, for the Northeast National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska (NPR-A) within the North Slope Borough of Alaska, is proposed. The North Slope contributes approximately 20 percent of the nation's domestic oil production. The proposed action would determine the appropriate multiple-use management of 4.6 million acres of public lands in the NPR-A. Significant issues addressed include the means of providing protection and enhanced management for surface resources, such as wildlife, wildlife habitat and fisheries as well as paleontological, subsistence, and recreation resources, within the planning area; and the determination of whether the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) would conduct oil and gas lease sales in the planning area and, if so, which lands would be made available for leasing. Subsistence resources, with particular reference to those associated with hunting and fishing, are exceedingly important to local residents, including the Inupiat, the aboriginal population of the North Slope. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. The preferred alternative would make 87 percent of the planning area available for leasing. Through the use of stipulations, leasing would be conducted in a manner that would be consistent with the protection of surface resources, including requiring thorough consultation with affected communities, establishment of a subsistence advisory panel, and creation of an Interagency Research and Monitoring Team to coordinate research and monitoring efforts related to the effectiveness of stimulations and surface resource impacts. No roads connecting to areas outside the planning area, other than temporary ice roads, would be allowed. Habitats important to molting geese and the Teshekpuk Lake caribou would be unavailable for leasing or such areas would be leased only under strict restrictions on oil and gas surface occupancy. In addition, surface use restrictions and other stipulations would be applied to other habitats identified as having high surface resource values, including areas identified by North Slope residents as important subsistence use areas, such as Fish and Judy creeks and the Ikpikpuk and Miaguakiak rivers. Similar restrictions and stipulations would be applied to the Colville, Kikiakrorak, and Kogosukruk rivers to protect raptor nesting and subsistence. Areas along the latter two rivers would be added to the Colville Special Area and the Pik Dunes would be added to the Teshepuk Lake Special Area. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Additional extraction leases would compensate for declining production in other areas of the North Slope. Wild and scenic designation for the Colville River and extension of the Teshekpuk Lake area would afford additional protection to important species and help to perpetuate the way of life of the Inupiat. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Activities associated with the exploration and development of hydrocarbon resources would damage habitat and adversely affect the naturalness of the disturbed areas. More specifically, hydrocarbon resources development would result in the degradation of paleontological sites and water and air quality and the disturbance of vegetation and the habitat for birds, fish, and terrestrial species. The potential for oil spills would attend any alternative involving leasing. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.), National Petroleum Reserve Production Act of 1976, and Wild and Scenic Rivers Act of 1968, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1271 et seq.).

Preparation date: July 30, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - REDWOOD NATIONAL AND STATE PARKS GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLAN, DEL NORTE AND HUMBOLDT COUNTIES, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36404942; 7011 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resources management plan for Redwood National and State Parks (RNSP), located in northwestern California, is proposed. The 105,516-acre cooperative federal-state park area preserves some of the last remaining stands of the world's tallest trees along 35 miles of scenic northwestern California coastline. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 2), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed alternative (Alternative 1), the management plan would be designed to achieve a balance between resource protection and visitor use, preserving and protecting the parks' natural and cultural resources while emphasizing restoration activities that are more intensive than those currently in effect in areas where sensitive resources are at risk. In-depth interpretation would be provided both in facilities and onsite. Orientation would help visitors access both facility- and resource-based interpretation and visitor opportunities. Major developments would be concentrated along U.S. Highways 101 and 199. New visitor services and facilities in the parks would be provided as long as sensitive resources were not affected. Watershed restoration within the national park would be increased over current levels. Second-growth forests would be managed to accelerate the return of characteristics found in old-growth forests. Historic structures would be stabilized and preserved as appropriate. A primary visitor center would be constructed, possibly in the vicinity of B-mill deck, and other visitor centers would be retained and/or modified. The number of campsites would be increased, but overnight camping at Freshwater Spit would be eliminated. Off-road vehicle use would be permitted only for American Indian subsistence activities. Some road improvements would be undertaken. State wilderness areas would be designated for portions of Jebediah Smith Redwoods State Park and Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park. Under Alternative 2, existing programs and management policies would be continued, with some trail development and campground construction. Under Alternative 3, natural and cultural resource restoration, protection, and preservation with be emphasized to a greater degree than under any other alternative. Under alternative 4, emphasis would be placed on providing a broad spectrum of appropriate visitor experiences relating to the parks' resources. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would ensure the preservation of redwood forest along the Pacific Coast. Watershed restoration would decrease soil erosion and improve downstream terrestrial, riparian and aquatic habitat. The Redwood Creek estuary would be restored, improving floodplain and wetland conditions and enhancing fish habitat. Threatened and endangered species would benefit from enhanced protection. Visual quality within the parks would improve, and some minor access and circulation benefits would be realized. The protection, preservation, management, and interpretation of the parks' cultural resources would be enhanced. Increased visitation would provide a substantial boost to local economies. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activities would result in short-term disturbances to land and vegetation. There would be minor, adverse, short-term impacts on water quality from the introduction of sediment and fuels during construction of the RNSP facilities. Modest land-use impacts could result from the need to acquire some parcels within the 100-year floodplain and subsequent displacement of several farms and resultant loss of agricultural production to restore the Redwood Creek estuary; land would be acquired only from willing sellers.

Preparation date: July 28, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - TUSAYAN GROWTH, KAIBAB NATIONAL FOREST, COCONINO COUNTY, ARIZONA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF JUNE 1997). AN - 36404527; 6989 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Tusayan Ranger District in the Kaibab National Forest, located in northern Arizona, is proposed. Tusayan is a tourist-oriented community located one mile south of the entrance to Grand Canyon National Park (GCNP), an area dominated by motels, restaurants, gift shops, campgrounds, and grocery stores. Tusayan has continued to add visitor lodging, retail, and food and beverage services on privately-owned land to support the expanding tourist market. Since 1985, visitation to the Grand Canyon has increased by six percent annually, and most of that increase has occurred along the South Rim. Nearly all visitors to the South Rim pass through Tusayan on their way to or from the park. Visitor and transportation facilities along the South Rim have reached or exceeded their capacity. The Grand Canyon Improvement Association (GCIA), a group of land and business owners in Tusayan, has expressed interest in expanding the community beyond its current 144 acres. Such an expansion would require use of national forest system (NFS) lands, which could be made available under a special-use permit. Five alternatives for improving transportation, housing, community facilities, and visitor services outside of park boundaries, and addressing whether NFS lands should be used for these purposes were considered in the draft EIS, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A). Alternative B and Alternative C would include land exchanges proposed by Canyon Forest Village (CFV) involving private acquisition of NFS lands directly north of Tusayan in exchange for federal acquisition of 12 private inholdings within the Tusayan Range District. Under Alternative D, proposed by GCIA in the draft EIS, a local government entity would purchase NFS land for resident housing and community needs; a special use permit would be issued for a transportation staging area. Under Alternative E, the ranger district would provide land for Park Service employee housing and a transportation staging area would be constructed north of Tusayan. This supplemental draft EIS considers three new alternative proposals. The preferred alternative (Alternative G) would involve a scaled-down land exchange, allowing for the acquisition of private inholdings, reducing the level of commercial development proposed in previous land exchange alternatives, providing improved land base or building space for community facilities for residents of the Grand Canyon/Tusayan area, and allowing for a transit center to be built independently of other aspects of the alternative. Although not a primary concern, this alternative would incorporate sustainable design elements where economically feasible and meets or exceeds standards established in the Tusayan Area Plan. Under Alternative G, CFV would acquire 270 acres of NFS land, north of Tusayan and west of State Highway 64 to construct a gateway community to GCNP to provide visitor services and facilities outside GCNP. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The development of a mass transit system and additional housing would help address capacity problems. The developments would alleviate pressure on the park caused by increased visitor demand, provide housing for area employees, provide an improved land base for community facilities and an opportunity for the development of community facilities to serve local residents, and allow for the development of INSIGHT, an experiential, educational and interpretive center, thereby expanding the educational and interpretive experience of GCNP visitors. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would include development on tribal lands, increased demands for water, increased competition with existing tourist-related businesses, accelerated population growth and demand for public services, and damage to archaeological sites, cultural properties, and wildlife habitat.

Preparation date: July 10, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - AIR FORCE PROPOSAL TO GRANT FUNDS FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW MEXICO TO CONSTRUCT THE ENCHANTED SKIES PARK AND OBSERVATORY NEAR GRANTS, CIBOLA COUNTY, NEW MEXICO. AN - 36390674; 6987 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of the Enchanted Skies Park and Observatory (ESP) on Horace Mesa, located near the city of Grants in western New Mexico, is proposed. The ESP would provide research, educational, and recreational facilities related to astronomical observations. The project involves a Department of the Air Force proposal to release federal funds to the University of New Mexico (UNM) for the construction of ESP facilities. The ESP would be located on three parcels covering 1,920 acres of land site at Horace Mesa, six miles southeast of Grants. The land associated with the ESP and the surrounding area includes public land administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the state of New Mexico, and land owned by Acoma Pueblo and private individuals. The project would involve transfer of two sections of BLM land to UNM. Eight sections of BLM land would be protected under a memorandum of understanding ensuring that activities do not take place that are incompatible with the proposed project. To preserve the existing dark night skies at the proposed site and attract future research facilities, the UNM desires either to acquire more of the surrounding land or to secure agreements with landowners regarding future development. The ESP would consist of the Sun Plaza Center at the base of the cliff, and the Star Center and the Research Astronomy Area at the top of the mesa. Facilities of the ESP would be concentrated primarily within 250 acres. The Star Center would include the upper tram station, a visitor center, a plaza, a planetarium and control center, public observatories and telescope stations, a maintenance facility, the Night Vision Cafe, and the Overlook Restaurant. The facilities of the Research Astronomy Area would include the charge couple device and transit instrument, a unique, fully automated, computer-controlled survey telescope with a 71-inch primary mirror; two 98-inch telescope observatories used to prototype adaptive optics technologies and perform conventional astronomical observations; and an optical interferometric array, a new type of telescope ultimately consisting of seven 79-inch telescopes, developed in stages, that would push the envelope of astronomical techniques. The Sun Plaza Center would include the Sun Plaza, a visitor center, parking spaces, a solar projection telescope, an education center, a coffee shop and astronomy store, and an astronomy village. Access to the ESP would be provided via a 1.5-mile road extending from NM 117; the road would be located approximately 1.5 miles north of Interstate 40 at Exit 89. An arterial tram from the Sun Plaza Center to the Star Center would serve as the sole conveyance for visitors, staff, and materials moving to and from the top of the mesa. In addition to the proposed action, a No Action Alternative is considered. The estimated construction cost of the initial phase of the ESP is $12.0 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The ESP would provide astronomical research opportunities for professionals and students as well as recreational and educational experiences for visitors. The construction of the initial facilities would employ 150 workers, 80 percent of whom would be local residents. The operation of the facility would employ 50 permanent full-time workers, 30 part-time workers, and 40 seasonal workers. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction and operation of facilities and infrastructure could degrade visual and cultural resources in the area. Resources of importance to Native Americans would be adversely affected; the Pueblo of Acoma has formally expressed their opposition to the development of the ESP, partly due to concerns involving traditional cultural properties. The ESP would displace current agricultural and grazing uses. Adjacent land uses would change due to increases in recreational visitation at the ESP site. Less than 50 acres of land, including 34 acres of grassland and 14 acres of pinyon-juniper vegetation, would be disturbed during construction. Annual water consumption, which would be derived from groundwater sources, would amount to 1.05 million gallons during the initial phase and increase to 2.83 million gallons during the second phase. The groundwater quality is unknown and could be adversely affected by wastewater discharge. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

An optimization technique applied to special snowfall observations and Level II reflectivity measurements determined Z(sub e)-S (reflectivity- snowfall) relationships for radard in several climatic zones. These relationships were similar for most sites with standard ower law coefficients near 150 and exponents near 2.0. Significant underestimation at longer ranges was evident at all radars, particularly with shallow storms. The SAA now has a range correction scheme and suggestions are given for determining appropriate coefficients for it. The SAA was successfully field tested in real-time in Ohio, Minnesota, and New York. The SAA produced reasonably accurate estimates of storm-total snow water equivalent for all test areas, well correlated with surface observations.

The latest catalogs feature modules with greater membrane area, and modules that are 40 to 60 inches long. Many manufacturers now have a product line with a range of productivity and rejection characteristics. Manufacturers of ceramic and stainless steel membranes, that were priced for high dollar, low quantity separations in the early '90s, are now trying to lower their costs to attract large-scale applications. Microfiltration (MF) and ultrafiltration (UF) have also been reclaimed from the dairy and paint industries and have taken their places in water treatment plants all over the world.

AN - 36414545; 6961 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for Sitka National Historical Park, located in the city of Sitka and borough of Greater Sitka in southeastern Alaska, is proposed. According to the enabling legislation, the park, also known as Totem Park, must preserve and interpret the site of the last major resistance of the Alaska Native people to Russian colonization, the battleground and fort site of 1804, the site of the former village of the Kik.adi clan, the numerous totem poles present in the park in 1910, the Russian Bishop's House (an area that commemorates czarist Russia's exploration and colonization of Alaska), and the Russian Memorial to a Russian midshipman and six sailors killed in the 1804 Battle of Sitka. The plan would guide management of the park for the next 15 to 20 years. Management and preservation of resources are the key components of the concepts set forth in each alternative. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would continue the current management regime, are considered in this draft EIS. The alternatives would be grounded in the goals related to visitor experience and interpretation. The treatment of natural resources would be similar under all of the alternatives, the difference across alternatives would be the quality of visitor experience and interpretive efforts and the means by which the partnerships associated with each would be forged to meet alternative goals. Management goals would focus on cultural resource management, natural resource management, visitor experience, relations with Alaskan Natives, community partnerships, facility development, and land protection. The preferred alternative (Alternative 1), would be designed to balance resource management and visitor use. To improve visitor distribution, visitors would be encouraged to move beyond the visitor center and the nearby totem trail to less frequently visited areas, such as the fort site, the battleground, and the Russian Memorial. Building 29, a significant Russian colonial structure and national historic landmark, would be recommended for acquisition if the owner is willing. Minor boundary changes along Sawmill Creek Road would also be recommended. Sitka partners would have a stronger role in advising regarding or contributing to components of park-related operations, interpretation, and outreach. Park development would be limited to construction of a maintenance building. The visitor center, the Old School, and the Priest's Quarters would be rehabilitated. The estimated construction and rehabilitation costs are $4.7 million to $7.9 million. The estimated annual staff costs are $599,150. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The implementation of the plan would improve visitor access and safety and enhance the accuracy of information available to park and city visitors. The plan would also enhance protection of cultural resources and existing park partnerships. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activities would disturb 0.25 acres, most of which was previously disturbed. New disturbance would be caused by developments at the visitor center and the Old School. The construction of a full basement under the Priests' Quarters could disturb currently unknown archaeological resources. Less than 0.1 acre of wetland in the upper parking lot area would be lost. Construction would degrade park aesthetics slightly. Approximately 70 to 80 trees adjacent to the upper parking lot, and some understory vegetation along Totem Trail and at the battleground, would be removed.

Preparation date: June 19, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - PROPOSED YARNELL MINING PROJECT, YAVAPAI COUNTY, ARIZONA. AN - 36416690; 6960 AB - PURPOSE: The development by the Yarnell Mining Company (YMC) of a surface gold mine and ore processing facilities, to be known as the Yarnell Mining Project, located in central Arizona, is proposed. The Yarnell gold deposit is in the Weaver Mountains approximately 0.5 miles south of the town of Yarnell and 0.25 miles southeast of the Glen Ilah subdivision. More specifically, the deposit is located within Sections 14, 15, and 23 of Township 10 North, Range 5 West. The project would be undertaken by the Yarnell Mining Company (YMC), a subsidiary of Berma Gold (U.S.) Incorporated. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, project features would include an open pit mine, two waste rock dumps, ore crushing and heap leaching facilities, a laboratory, a warehouse, and offices. Water would be obtained from local and regional groundwater sources and transported to the project via two pipelines. Mining would be conducted over six years, with closure and reclamation taking an additional seven years. Facilities would be sited on 118 acres of land administered by the Bureau of Land Management, 75 acres of private land owned by YMC, and eight acres of state land which would be included in the water supply system. Another 7.7 acres of state land would be disturbed by development of water supply facilities. Mining activities would incorporate 118 acres on 30 unpatented mining claims (public land) and 75 acres on five patented mining claims held by YMC and others. An estimated 294 acres would lie within the project's perimeter fence. Mining would proceed around the clock, five days per week during operations. Ore would be hauled directly to the crusher site and either dumped directly into the primary crusher or stockpiled nearby for later feeding. Waste rock would be hauled either to the South Waste Rock Dump (SWRD) or the North Waste Rock Dump (NWRD). Upon the completion of the mining, approximately 3.7 million tons of waste rock would have been hauled to the NWRD and 7.6 million tons to the SWRD. In addition, 574,000 tons of waste rock would be used for construction of the leach pad and crusher area. The ore processing facilities would consist of a two-stage crushing plant, equipment to haul crushed ore onto the heap leach pad, the pad, solution collection ditches, pregnant solution pond, carbon adsorption recovery plant, barren solution pond, and storm water pond. Leaching and metal recovery activities would proceed round the clock seven days per week. Project infrastructure would include an administrative office, mine shop, assay lab, warehouse facilities, power distribution and water supply facilities and access and haul roads. All facilities, except water supply facilities, would be located within the site. Water would be obtained from local and regional groundwater sources and transported to the site via proposed pipelines. The project would mine and process 1.2 million tons of ore per year during its six-year operational life. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project's annual gold production would average 30,100 troy ounces. It would also provide 100 construction and 91 operations jobs and $3.9 million per year in direct and indirect income during operations. Some pressure would be placed on housing resources due to the influx of workers. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Project activities would disturb 201 acres of land, only 14 acres of which have previously been disturbed. Vegetation and associated wildlife habitat on 182 acres at the mine site and 18 acres along the pipeline corridor would be displaced. Some 16 state-listed protected plant species can be found in the area to be disturbed. Approximately 100 acres of habitat would suffer from fragmentation. Desert tortoise, chuckwallas, bats, birds and reptiles could be killed by project equipment and chemicals. The topography near the heads of Yarnell Creek and Fools Gulch would be altered by the placement of the NWRD, SWRD, pit, roads, and the help-leach facility. Approximately 46 acres of land would be converted to 50 percent slopes, increasing the potential for erosion on the affected land. Topsoil would be removed from 35 acres of open pit and permanent roads. Up to 50 percent of soils on steep slopes and in boulder areas would be lost. During operations, 45 acres of land would no longer drain into Yarnell Creek. Tom Cat Tank, a range improvement, would be buried. A catastrophic event could cause release of contaminated solution to areas outside the facility. Drainage patterns would be altered. Cottonwood Spring water levels would drop significantly, affecting the associated wetland, and the flow could disappear completely. Groundwater withdrawals would drawdown some wells. Approximately 1,550 feet of streambed would be permanently lost. The mine would conflict with county planning goals and a nearby residential area and mar aesthetics in the area.

Preparation date: June 18, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CYPRUS MIAMI CORPORATION LEACH FACILITY EXPANSION, MIAMI, GILA COUNTY, ARIZONA. AN - 36406492; 6959 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of three leach facilities and a waste rock disposal facility by Cyprus Miami Mining Corporation in order to support the continued operation of the company's copper mining operation, located near Miami in east-central Arizona, is proposed. The existing facilities at the mine include leaching facilities, open pits, solution collection reservoirs, a solvent extraction facility, an electrowinning plant, and waste rock disposal facilities on both private and public lands. The complex also includes a smelter, electro-refinery, and a rod plant. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action, the facility expansion would enable the applicant to maintain the current level of operations of the mine for 16 to 20 years, producing an average of 29 million tons per year. The three leach pads would be used for the placement and subsequent leaching of copper-bearing ore mined from reserves owned by the applicant. Material placed on the pads would be rinsed with sulfuric acid solutions, and the resulting copper-bearing solution would be collected and treated at the existing solvent extraction and electro-winning plants to produce high-quality cathode copper. The waste rock area would be used for storing the uneconomic nonmineral material removed from the mining pits. The expansion would also require the construction of access and haul roads, solution pipelines, and surface water control structures. The facilities would be constructed on 286 acres belonging to the applicant, 350 acres managed by the Bureau of Land Management, and 489 acres managed by the Forest Service. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would enable the mine to continue operating at its current level to the year 2008, at which point its work force would be reduced by 10 percent each year. Under the No Action Alternative, those workforce reductions would commence in 1998. The continued operation of the mine would provide $1.1 billion in tax revenue to Gila County. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would disturb 771 acres of public land and result in the loss of 9.22 acres of open water, drainages, and wetlands. Some seven acres of riparian vegetation would be lost; eleven ponds, tanks, or artesian boreholes could be lost, seven springs would be covered, and water would be rerouted; and 18 water sources covered by the facilities. Aquifer water quality standards could be exceeded for a short distance down-gradient of leach facilities. There could be a minor increase in hazardous materials.

Preparation date: June 18, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - OIL AND GAS LEASING AND DEVELOPMENT IN THE GLENWOOD SPRINGS RESOURCE AREA, GARFIELD COUNTY, COLORADO (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF JANUARY 1991). AN - 36414503; 6956 AB - PURPOSE: The leasing of lands for oil and gas exploration and development in the Glenwood Springs Resource Area (GSRA), located in western Colorado, are proposed. This draft supplement to the final EIS of January 1991, which addressed an amendment to the resource management plan (RMP) covering oil and gas leasing more broadly in Colorado, addresses only the GSRA. The final EIS covered the 568,000 acres of public land within GSRA, extending from Edwards to DeBeque and from Aspen to Tonopas as well as four other BLM resource areas within Colorado. When the original RMP amendment was prepared, only limited oil and gas development had occurred in the GSRA. The level of development began to increase soon after completion of the final EIS; development was concentrated in a relatively small area along the Interstate 70 corridor between Silt and Parachute. The higher-than-expected rate of development raised questions about the impact analysis in the final EIS. Additionally, as many as 25 wells per year have been approved on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land in recent years and this rate of development is expected to continue into the future. Hence, a new evaluation, presented in this supplement, was undertaken. While the supplement was being prepared, Congress passed a law calling for the transfer of all 56,000 acres of Naval Oil Shale Reserves (NOSR) near Rifle, Colorado, from the Department of Energy to the Department of the Interior, and mandated that the developed portion of the NOSR be offered for lease of its oil and gas reserves within one year. This supplement covers the entire 568,548-acre GSRA, but focuses on land having high oil and gas potential. BLM lands, federal mining estate under privately-owned surface (split estate) and NOSR lands comprise 200,937 acres within the area under consideration. Three alternatives, including the Continuation of Current Management Alternative, are considered in this draft supplement to the final EIS of January 1991. Under the proposed action, management would be based on the concept of establishing best management practices independent of lease rights already granted. Lease rights would be considered at the time such practices were actually applied on the ground to site-specific Applications for Permits to Drill. Some of these practices could be inconsistent with certain lease rights already granted and, therefore, would have to be modified or waived on a case-by-case basis. Based on activities over the past five years, it was assumed that 1,200 additional wells would be drilled on fee and federal mineral estate within the area under consideration over the next 20 years; 300 such wells would be likely to be situated on BLM estate. Other assumptions include a concentration of development in areas that have seen the most activity to date; a concentration in development involving filling in between already developed sites; less dense, but continuous, development radiating out from these areas; and an averaging out of market conditions and gas prices over the next 20 years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Oil and gas produced at the leased sites could contribute to national security. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The lease development activities would adversely affect a further 34 percent of riparian areas and wetlands within the project area, bringing the total area adversely affected to more than 70 percent. Elk and mule deer would represent the most seriously affected animal species. Surface disturbances would adversely affect 4,080 acres, including 1,020 acres of public land and 3,060 acres of private land. Well facilities and roads would mar visual resources. Traffic on the Garfield County road system would increase significantly.

AN - 36408290; 6942 AB - PURPOSE: The renewal of the withdrawal of public lands around the Naval Air Station (NAS) Fallon range training complex, located in western Nevada, is proposed. The NAS facility is located in the Lahontan Valley, approximately 70 miles east of Reno and six miles southeast of the city of Fallon. NAS Fallon is the only Navy facility that can support, train, and house an entire carrier air wing for initial and refresher integrated strike training. The Naval Strike and Air Warfare Center is stationed at the NAS; the mission of the center is to develop realistic combat training scenarios for military aircrews flying high-performance jet aircraft and helicopters and using state-of-the-art military equipment and tactics. The Center uses four geographically separate training ranges (Bravo-16 (B-16), B-17, B-19, B-20), three air traffic control gap filler radar stations, a tactical aircrew combat training system, and an electronic warfare system. Under the Military Lands Withdrawal Act of 1986, public lands in Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona, and Alaska were withdrawn for use by the Departments of the Navy, Air Force, and Army. Issues addressed include those associated with impacts to land use, biological resources, geology and soils, water resources, cultural resources, environmental justice and socioeconomics, air quality, noise, mineral resources, livestock and wild horse management, recreation and visual resources, public health and safety, and transportation. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered with respect to the Fallon range in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative would withdraw a total of 21,576 acres of land at B-20, which lies in the Carson Sink, approximately 18 miles east of Alternative Highway 95 and seven miles north of the Stillwater National Wildlife Refuge. The Navy would continue to use B-20 land for training operations consistent with those currently conducted; however, it would not withdraw additional lands, establish additional public use restrictions, or increase aircraft operations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The lands withdrawal would enable the Navy to continue its mission of providing tactical and training functions without endangering public safety. Defense-related activities on withdrawn lands in Nevada are projected to contribute over $2.0 billion to the state's gross regional product by the year 2000 and to result in the employment of 22,000 workers, representing four percent of state gross regional product and just over two percent of state employment, respectively. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The withdrawal would adversely affect recreational use, ranching, and mining interests as activities related to these purposes would not be permitted on withdrawn lands. Habitat conditions on withdrawn lands at various other sites have been affected by construction and military activities and continued use of withdrawn lands could degrade habitat conditions near impact areas.

AN - 36395028; 6945 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a bison management plan for Montana and Yellowstone National Park, located in northwest Wyoming and the adjacent portions of Montana and Idaho, is proposed. Bison are an essential component of Yellowstone National Park, contributing to the biological, ecological, cultural, and aesthetic purposes of the park. However, bison periodically migrate into Montana, and some of the animals carry brucellosis which may be transmitted to cattle outside the park boundaries. The analysis area is part of what is often described as the Greater Yellowstone Area, the largest and most nearly intact ecosystem in the contiguous United States. The portion specifically subject to analysis includes those areas in Yellowstone National Park habitually occupied by bison, approximately 1.75 million acres as well as adjacent federal, state, and private lands outside the park in southwestern Montana that have periodically been occupied by bison over the past 12 years. The area outside the park covers approximately 568,994 acres, of which approximately 97 percent lie in Gallatin National Forest; the remaining three percent are administered by state or local government authorities (one percent) or held privately (two percent). The cooperation of several agencies is necessary to manage the herd and control the risk of transmission of brucellosis from bison to domestic cattle in Montana. Seven alternatives, including the No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Each alternative would include a full range of management techniques while focusing on one or two in particular. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 7), management would focus on maintaining the bison population between 1,700 to 2,500 head to minimize migration of animals into Montana. As in Alternative 1, Alternative 4, and Alternative 5, the capture and slaughter of seropositives would be the primary means of managing risk. Alternative 7 would also include a framework for considering acquisition of lands from willing sellers for use as winter range for other bison management activities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Bison population controls would prevent the spread of an infectious disease to domestic cattle grazing lands lying outside the national park, a disease which would otherwise threaten the economic security of operators of grazing allotments. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would decrease the numbers of bison within Yellowstone, thereby decreasing wildlife viewing opportunities. The social values of some persons and groups, including Native American tribes, would be degraded. A few ranchers using public allotments on the Gallatin National Forest would be adversely affected should those allotments be closed. Wildlife species, particularly the pronghorn antelope, grizzly bear and grey wolf, would suffer from loss of prey. Visual resources would be degraded in some areas. Jobs and income in the communities around Yellowstone could be adversely affected. LEGAL MANDATES: Act of May 29, 1884, and Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.).

Though many previous studies have documented the chronic problems of water in the West, the convergence of a number of trends makes this study unique and timely. For the past 15 years, the West has been experiencing the most dramatic demographic changes for any region or period in the country's history. Should present trends continue, by 2020 population in the West may increase by more than 30 percent. Population predictions underscore the urgency for wise long- range water policy planning, effective and efficient water management institutions, and consistent enforcement of existing laws.

The approach enables direct measurement of groundwater depletion and recharge. The utility of microgravity measurements for monitoring groundwater change was demonstrated in the winter of 1992-93 when El Nino conditions contributed to sustained, high streamflows. Data showed that the greatest initial recharge occurred in normally unsaturated surficial deposits along Rillito Creek as a direct result of winter streamflows. Monitoring data during the 1997-98 El Nino are also summarized.

AN - 16354078; 6930 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of commercial waste management and industrial facilities on the Cabazon Indian Reservation, located in the community of Mecca in southeastern California, is proposed. The development would be known as the Cabazon Resource Recovery Park (CRRP). The reservation occupies two separate parcels encompassing 1,382 acres of land in the Coachella Valley. More specifically, the reservation lies in Sections 19, 30, and 32 of Township 5 South, Range 8 East, San Bernardino Base and Meridian. The current commercial development includes a tribal gaming casino, a tribal administration building, police and fire facilities, day care facilities, a print ship, and other facilities. The southern portion consists of the entire 640 acres of Section 6 in Township 7 South, Range 9 East, San Bernardino Base and Meridian. Usable area within Section 6 is approximately 590 acres. The Colmac Energy biomass powerplant occupies a leased site covering 104 acres within Section 6, and two smaller soil recycling and processing businesses lease a total of 25 acres. The remaining 461-acre area would be the site of the waste facility. In addition to the proposed action, a No Project Alternative is also considered in this draft programmatic EIS. The industrial and commercial facilities planned for the CRRP would consist of facilities which would recycle, reuse, or transform waste streams of all types into useful commodities. The CRRP would incorporate a support infrastructure providing energy, truck and rail access, and wastewater treatment. Projects currently being implemented include facilities for tire recycling and nickel wire fabrication. The planned recycling projects would include facilities for platinum recovery, copper and aluminum reclamation, municipal solid waste materials recovery, biomass gasification, waste oil recovery, paper de-inking, construction and demolition materials recycling, custom soils and fertilizers production, soils recycling, green and food waste conversion, and aquaculture. Under the program currently under consideration, facilities to be developed would be geared toward plastics, rubber, and phenolic modeling; construction materials manufacturing; carbon dioxide production; specialty steel production; printing; friction materials fabrication; glass manufacturing; medical waste disposal; hazardous waste treatment, storage, and transfer; fuels distribution; and chemicals distribution. POSITIVE IMPACTS: At full development, the CRRP would provide more than 600 full-time, on-site jobs cutting across a broad range of types and skill levels. The off-site employment generated by the CRRP would probably create 200 to 300 jobs, largely in the raw materials collection and transportation categories. In general, the development of the lands as planned would enhance the economic base of the Cabazon Tribe and forward the long-range tribal goal of establishing a strong and diverse economic base from the tribe can support its self-determination. The CRRP would also provide environmentally sound solutions to a number of waste disposal, recycling, and reuse problems in the area. The integrated nature of the facilities would be such that the output of some facilities would provide input for others, enhancing the overall efficiency and effectiveness of both the waste management and manufacturing functions of the site. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: An earthquake could substantially damage facilities on the CRRP and potentially cause the release of hazardous waste. On-site accidents could likewise result in hazardous waste releases and accidental releases of flammable gas could cause a fire or explosion. Air pollutants emitted from diesel construction equipment could be significant if multiple projects were constructed concurrently. Off-site transportation accidents could also result in the release of hazardous materials.

Preparation date: May 29, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SOUTHPOINT POWER PLANT, FORT MOJAVE INDIAN RESERVATION, MOHAVE COUNTY, ARIZONA. AN - 16352024; 6929 AB - PURPOSE: The construction by Calpine Corporation of a natural-gas-fired, combined-cycle facility on leased tribal trust lands of the Fort Mojave Indian Reservation, located in northwestern Arizona, is proposed. The plant would constitute a merchant plant, meaning that it would not sell power to specific customers but rather sell electrical energy on a spot-market basis to public and private utility companies which would, in turn, distribute the power to end-users. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the plant would generate a nominal 500 megawatts (MW) of power, equivalent to 12 percent of the maximum daily demand in the Phoenix area. The maximum rating for the facility would be 540 MW. The plant would be built on a 320-acre site located in the eastern half of Section 8, Township 17 North, Range 21 West, Gila and Salt River Base and Meridian. The selected site would be adjacent to, and north of, the David Dam - Topock Highway (County Road 227). Electric generating equipment would consist of a 500-MW combined cycle power block, comprised of two combustion turbine generators, two heat recovery steam generators, one steam turbine, and one condenser. The combined-cycle combustion turbines would use dry, low nitrous oxides combustors in conjunction with selective catalytic reduction to control nitrous oxide emissions. Carbon monoxide emissions would be controlled by oxidation catalysis. Waste heat would be rejected through exhaust stacks and a multi-cell mechanical draft cooling tower. The plant would be fueled solely by natural gas, consuming 90 million cubic feet per day. Offsite gas pipelines would be the responsibility of the natural gas supplier. One to six miles of additional pipeline would have to be laid, depending upon the supplier chosen. An off-site substation and transmission line would also be included in the project. Cooling water would be withdrawn from the Colorado River and piped to the plant via an underground line beneath tribal land. The 16-20-month construction phase would involve grading 108 acres, including 15 acres for the equipment compound, 30 acres for the evaporation pond, 30 acres for onsite retention basins, 30 acres for storage of untreated process water storage, three acres for temporary storage of process wastewater, and two acres for internal roads. Some 250,000 cubic yards of soil would be moved to create building pads, retention basins and other stormwater management facilities, roadbeds, and the evaporation pond. Electricity produced by the plant would enter the multi-state federal Western Area Power Administration's (WAPA) power wheeling and distribution facilities as well as facilities of local organizations, including Arizona Electric Power Co-op, Mohave Electric Co-Op, and Aha Macav Power Service. The electric energy produced by the plant would enter the WAPA system via the proposed Topock substation and transmission facilities. Access to the WAPA system would provide a means of exporting energy to serve virtually any electric service provider in the Western Systems Coordinating Council grid, which includes 14 states and portions of Canada and Mexico. Future load growth in Arizona, Nevada, and Southern California is estimated at more than 10,000 MW over the next 10 years. The impending deregulation of electric utilities is expected to result in more opportunities for the sale of bulk power generated by newer, more efficient, reliable, and environmentally compatible power sources. Power generated by the plant could potentially be made available to one or more consumers, including major manufacturing, processing, and mining facilities as well as to public and private utilities. Estimated construction cost for the plant ranges from $200 million to $250 million; the estimate includes all offsite facilities. The estimated operational costs are $3.0 million to $6.0 million per year. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The construction of the energy facility would enhance prospects for the sovereignty, self-determination and economic development for the Fort Mojave Indian Tribe. The tribe would receive both direct and indirect income from lease payments for land and water as well as other direct and indirect income. The revenues and other economic benefits would support the tribe's strategy of using its land and water resources for economic development. The merchant plant delivery structuring would provide more reliable programming of electric services in existing markets. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The grading and plant facilities construction would remove soil and vegetation from the affected lands and alter surface topography. The plant would divert up to 4,000 acre-feet per year from the Colorado River. The plant combustion emissions would degrade air quality in the area. As the situation stands, fire protection and hazardous materials incident response facilities relevant to the plant would be inadequate. The traffic volumes on local roads would increase significantly during the construction phase.

AN - 16343242; 6931 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Las Vegas Resource Management Area, covering 3.3 million acres of public land administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), located in southern Nevada, is proposed. Surface ownership in the area, which encompasses 4.9 million acres of public and private lands, includes 3.3 million acres of BLM-administered lands, 922,246 acres of lands administered by other federal agencies, and 553,716 acres of patented land. Federal mineral estate ownership in the district encompasses 3.4 million acres, including 42,576 acres of oil and gas estate, 20,491 acres of sodium and potassium estate, 2,139 acres of sodium estate, 480 acres of potassium estate, 548 geothermal estate, 300 acres of coal estate, 220 acres of estate for locatable minerals, 80 acres of fissionable materials estate, and 1,135 acres of saleable minerals estate. Saleable minerals estate is largely comprised of sand and gravel (1,135 acres). Present management for the Las Vegas District is directed by the Clark County Management Framework Plan (CCMFP) and the Esmeralda-Southern Nye Resource Management Plan and EIS. The current planning effort was initiated to address issues arising from a regularly scheduled five-year evaluation of the CCMFP which indicated that the plan was not adequately addressing the rapidly changing public land use demands in Clark County; recent listing of the desert tortoise as a threatened species, a situation not currently addressed by the plans; and public land disposals and exchanges being accomplished by legislative action (such as Aerojet and Apex) have generated public concern. Issues of concern include land tenure, desert tortoise protection, mineral availability, off-road-vehicle (ORV) use, special management areas and Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (ACECs), minerals management following congressional designation of wilderness areas, and utility corridors. Management categories covered address air and water resources, riparian areas, vegetation, visual resources, ACECs, fish and wildlife (including special status species management), forest resources, livestock grazing, wild horses and burros, cultural resources, land tenure and acquisition, rights-of-way, recreation resources, wild and scenic rivers, wilderness, mineral resources, hazardous materials, and fire control. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The implementation would provide for an integrated approach to management of BLM-administered lands within the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The management activities and recreational and exploitative uses, particularly mining activities, would disturb soils and vegetation and associated wildlife habitat and reduce air quality in localized areas for short periods.

AN - 16344311; 6923 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan to improve water quality and protect riparian habitat and rare species on Santa Rosa Island, located offshore of southwestern California, is proposed. In August 1995, the regional water quality control board issued a cleanup or abatement order directing the National Park Service to take measures to improve water quality on Santa Rosa Island. Streams on the island had been found to have high fecal coliform and pH levels. Located 15 miles south of the city of Santa Barbara, the 54,000-acre island is one of five islands that comprise Channel Island National Park. In 1986, the National Park Service purchased the island from the Vail and Vickers Company, which retains the right of noncommercial use and occupancy for 25 years. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, were considered in the final EIS of April 1997. Under the proposed action, a phased reduction of cattle grazing and commercial hunting would occur over the next 14 years in order to improve water quality, protect riparian habitat areas, and conserve rare species and their habitats. Specific actions would include the immediate closure of Old Ranch and Carrington Pastures, and phased reduction of grazing in other pastures with resources at risk. Cattle exclosures would be built to protect riparian areas in Jolla Vieja Canyon and Box Springs. Deer would be removed from the island within four years, and elk would be reduced gradually over the next 14 years. This final supplement to the final EIS presents a new proposed action that responds to issues raised in a lawsuit brought against the National Park Service. The lawsuit contended that the phased reduction of grazing did not adequately protect Park resources. Under the new proposed action (Alternative F), all cattle would be removed from the island by the end of 1998, with the exception of 12 head in Lobo Pasture; deer and elk would be removed by the end of 2011. Deer and elk population would be managed at levels that would allow rare species and their habitats to recover. A road management program would be put in place in order to reduce impacts on area streams. The draft supplement to the final EIS has been re-issued as a companion document. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the new proposed action, the project would remove the effects of overgrazing in order to conserve and restore rare plant and animal species as well as the habitats on which they depend. The project would benefit soils, water quality and riparian areas, vegetation, wildlife, rare species and their habitats, and archaeological resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under this alternative, Vail and Vickers would have reduced revenues. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.) and Public Law 96-199.

Preparation date: May 26, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - COAXIAL CABLE REMOVAL PROJECT, FROM SOCORRO, NEW MEXICO, TO MOJAVE, CALIFORNIA. AN - 16342562; 6922 AB - PURPOSE: The removal of coaxial cable and related equipment from private and public lands along a 220-mile corridor extending across New Mexico, Nevada, and California, is proposed. Approximately 58 percent of the project area consists of lands under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Land Management or the National Park Service. The communication system is owned and operated by American Telephone & Telegraph Company (AT&T); the system, known as the Phillips 140 cable system, consists of cable, repeater huts, manholes, marker posts, associated electronic equipment, and an access corridor. AT&T has proposed the removal of the system because it is not compatible with the company's fiber optic network, it requires constant maintenance, and it is an unnecessary encumbrance on the land. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (Alternative A) would involve the removal of 174.5 miles of cable, 55 repeater huts, 57 manholes, and marker posts along 174.2 miles. Cables and marker posts would not be removed along certain sections of the California corridor because of topography or proximity to active fiber optic cable. The proposed action also includes the elimination of 39.8 miles of the access corridor where it crosses wilderness areas and desert tortoise habitat and rehabilitation actions to promote revegetation and habitat recovery at the repeater hut sites and along portions of the corridor. The estimated cost of the project is $9.5 million. The draft EIS is re-issued as a complimentary document. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would remove an unnecessary utility right of way from sensitive desert habitat and would eventually return that habitat to its natural condition. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The cable removal would disturb 423 acres of desert vegetation along the right of way and critical habitat of the desert tortoise. In addition, the project would adversely affect soil productivity, recreation, and visual aesthetics. The construction would temporarily adversely affect air quality and noise levels.

AN - 16353930; 6914 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of management goals and actions for desert tortoise habitat in the Mojave Desert, located in eastern Nevada, is proposed. Based upon declining numbers in some areas of its range and regional habitat loss and degradation, the Mojave desert tortoise was listed as a threatened species in 1990. Issues of concern include the effects on tortoise habitat, grazing, land tenure and use, recreation uses, mineral entry closures, social and economic resources, and wild horse and burro habitat. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative C), which would continue management under the approved Caliente management framework, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (the Habitat Management Alternative) would designate three areas of critical environmental concern (ACECs), implement management prescriptions for desert tortoise habitat inside and outside the ACECs, ensure Bureau of Land Management participation in Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) environmental education programs, and implement a FWS interagency monitoring program. The three ACECs, totaling 212,500 acres, would be designated to protect 83 percent of designated critical habitat within Lincoln County. Management prescriptions, designated to improve desert tortoise habitat, would modify or restrict some multiple uses, including livestock grazing, off-highway vehicle recreation, wildhorse and burro management, land use authorizations, and mineral development within the ACECs. Continued consultation with the FWS would be conducted regarding any federal action that might affect listed species. Other actions would include those related to designation of experimental management, vegetation management, management of special status plant species, maintenance and enhancement of habitat, land management, rights-of-way management, recreational use management, and fire management. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Plan implementation would assist in the recovery and delisting of the desert tortoise in the Northeastern Mojave Recovery Unit while minimizing effects on human activities that occur on the affected public lands. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: One sheep and two cattle allotments would be closed and six cattle allotments would be partially closed; a total of 50,600 acres would be closed to grazing use. An additional, 161,900 acres of land not currently used by livestock would be closed to grazing. The removal of wildhorse and burro management activities in some areas would adversely affect populations of these animals. Recreational access would be prohibited for off-road vehicle users in the ACECs. The prohibition of mineral entry would prevent the exploitation of minerals or subject extraction to limitations based upon submission of plans of operation requirements.

Preparation date: May 18, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - TELEPHONE FLAT GEOTHERMAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT, MODOC NATIONAL FOREST, SISKIYOU COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36407895; 6906 AB - PURPOSE: The construction, operation, and decommissioning of a 48-megawatt (MW) (gross) geothermal powerplant with ancillary facilities, access roads, and a 230-kilovolt (kV) transmission line in Modoc National Forest, located in northern California, is proposed. The Medicine Lake Highlands, where the plant would be located, includes the 134,254-acre Glass Mountain Known Geothermal Resource Area, designed for geothermal development under the Geothermal Steam Act of 1970. The geothermal leases to be exploited include CA12370, CA12371, CA12372, CA13803, CA21933, and CCA2500. Three alternative powerplant sites are under consideration in this draft EIS. The powerplant, which would be located two miles southeast of Medicine Lake in Siskiyou County, would use double-flash technology, meaning the high-pressure geothermal fluid would be allowed to flash into steam within pressure vessels in two incremental steps to maximize the amount of steam captured for electrical power production. In addition to the powerplant itself, ancillary facilities would include 10 to 12 production well pads and three to five injection well pads, and production and injection pipelines; these facilities would encircle the powerplant. Primary access to the powerplant would be via Primary Forest Route 97/Modoc County Road 97. The project would be developed in three phases, including a two- to three-year well field development and site construction phase (first phase), a commercial electrical power generation phase (second phase), and a decommissioning phase (third phase). Two options under consideration for construction of the 230-kV transmission line interconnection segments from the plant site to tie into the alternative transmission line utility corridors located in the Medicine Lake basin proposed for the Fourmile Hill Geothermal Development Project would be 4.95 and 12.26 miles in length and extend into Modoc County. Two transmission line routes are under consideration to tie into the Northern Utility Corridor if the approved Fourmile Hill utility corridor were to proceed north of the Medicine Lake basin. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The electricity generated by the plant would serve the regional grid. The construction workforce would peak at 330 to 350 workers and an additional 30 non-construction workers could be employed on site during the construction phase. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Ground shaking and volcanic activity in this geologically active region could damage plant facilities, and production activities could induce microseismic activity. The removal of large quantities of geothermal fluid could result in subsidence. The designated unique geologic special interest areas in the vicinity could be physically affected by project activities. The plant would consume 49.8 acre-feet of shallow groundwater per year during the first phase, 6.5 acre-feet per year during the second phase, and 4.0 acre-feet per year during the third phase. Blasting could adversely affect private wells. There would be a low probability that geothermal fluid could mix with shallow groundwater. Transmission line construction would displace wildlife habitat on 60-149 acres of land. Approximately 173 acres would be removed or subject to continuing disturbance in wellfield area over the life of the project. Wildlife potentially affected by the project would include terrestrial and avian species, including Northern spotted owl, Northern goshawk, and bats. Large quantities of criteria air pollutants, particularly oxides of nitrogen, would be releases from drilling rig engines, and up to 1,570 pounds of greenhouse gases would be released. Visibility at the Lava Beds National Monument could be slightly impaired, and plant facilities would be visible from several points including a key observation point overlooking the Medicine Lake Lava Flow. Project activities could inadvertently impact recorded cultural resources and exposes unrecorded sites. Continued development of any kind in the Medicine Lake Highlands would adversely affect the spiritual significance of the area for Native Americans. Construction and operation noise could be heard by hikers and other forest visitors. The project could be inconsistent with planning objectives, including those of the Northwest Forest Plan and recreational goals for the area, which are geared toward dispersed activities. A small potential would exist for uncontrolled release of geothermal fluids into the environment, and some possibility exists for accidental release of hazardous materials.

Preparation date: May 14, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CAPITOL REEF NATIONAL PARK GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLAN; EMERY, GARFIELD, SEVIER, AND WAYNE COUNTIES, UTAH. AN - 36411430; 6890 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a 15-year plan for management, use and development of Capitol Reef National Park, located in south-central Utah, is proposed. The park includes 222,753 acres of federal land and 19,150 acres of state land. Capitol Reef was established to encompass most of the impressive, 100-mile-long Waterpocket Fold, the largest exposed monocline in North America. Issues of concern include the effects on a variety of geological features, strata, and mineral deposits; biologically productive riparian areas; water quality in park streams and the natural waterpockets after which the Waterpocket Fold is named; air quality, scenic vistas, and night sky vistas; endangered, sensitive, protected, and candidate plant and animal species; the park's biological diversity; and Capitol Reef's archaeological and historic resources, particularly the rural historic landscape of Fruita. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative D), which would maintain visitor services and resource protection at current levels, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative A) would emphasize wilderness preservation and resource protection while continuing to accommodate a variety of park uses and ensure quality visitor experiences. More specifically, it would ensure that the management area continue as a minimally developed park with its wilderness qualities preserved as described in the 1974 Wilderness Proposal. It would include the introduction of native species, including desert bighorn sheep; visitor interpretation facilities in the Fruita Rural Historic District as well as in areas associated with numerous archaeological sites; the construction of an expanded interpretive wheelchair-accessible trail system within Fruita; the retention of all existing campgrounds; the retention of the semi-primitive and primitive zones comprising 93 percent of the park in a largely undeveloped state; the continuation of grazing rights, though willing seller buyouts of current grazing rights would be supported; the modernization and enlargement of the visitor center; the rehabilitation of Sleeping Rainbow Ranch and the Sprang Cottage in the Freemont River District; the improvement of historic and early residences for adaptive use; the assessment of development of an interagency visitor center to be administered by the National Park Service and the Forest Service; the consideration of an alternative visitor transport system for Scenic Drive or a bicycle concession; the long-term phase-out of government residences; and increases in staffing levels. Plan implementation would occur in two phases. Alternative B would focus on removing many existing developments in order to restore and enhance the natural resources and wilderness qualities of the park. Alternative C, which would perpetuate the 1982 General Management Plan, would emphasize visitor services and facilities, including development in some backcountry areas. Expenditures during the first phase of the preferred alternative are estimated at $5.5 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The implementation would protect and preserve exceptional resources, the quality of visitor experience, and the wilderness characteristics of certain portions of the park. Public interest in the Waterpocket Fold and other features and objects of scientific interest would be protected. Visitors could find that they are provided with more services and opportunities in the threshold and developed rural zones, and visitation and lengths of stays would continue to increase, particularly in the Fruita area. There would be approximately 140 employment opportunities, an additional $550,000 in tax revenue, and $7.0 million in regional sales. County revenues could increase by 10 percent and could have significant beneficial effect on local economies. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Grazing damage could adversely affect vegetation, increasing exotics and wildlife populations. Noise levels could increase, therefore disrupting the natural quiet in the threshold and rural developed zones.

Preparation date: May 6, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WITHDRAWAL OF PUBLIC LANDS FOR RANGE SAFETY AND TRAINING PURPOSES, NAVAL AIR STATION FALLON, CHURCHILL COUNTY, NEVADA. AN - 36411802; 6887 AB - PURPOSE: The withdrawal of public lands around the Naval Air Station (NAS) Fallon range training complex, located in the Lahontan Valley, approximately 70 miles east of Reno and six miles southeast of the city of Fallon in western Nevada, is proposed. NAS Fallon is the only Navy facility that can support, train, and house an entire carrier air wing for initial and refresher integrated strike training. The Naval Strike and Air Warfare Center is stationed at the NAS; the mission of the center is to develop realistic combat training scenarios for military aircrews flying high-performance jet aircraft and helicopters and using state-of-the-art military equipment and tactics. The center uses four geographically separate training ranges (B-16, B-17, B-19, and B-20), three air traffic control gap filler radar stations, a tactical aircrew combat training system, and an electronic warfare system. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the three action alternatives, between 127,365 and 189,080 acres of public land around training ranges B-16, B-17, B-19, the shoal site, and the Dixie Valley area would be withdrawn. The withdrawn lands would be classified under one of two land use categories. Category A lands would be closed to public use because these lands contain a potential ordnance hazard. Category B lands would be open for public use under Navy oversight. Approximately 40,280 acres adjoining the three training ranges would be classified as Category A. The preferred alternative (Alternative II) would withdraw 40,280 acres in Category A and 87,085 acres in Category B, totaling 127,365 acres. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The lands withdrawal would enable the Navy to improve its strategic combat training and protect the public from operational hazards. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The withdrawal would adversely affect recreationists, ranchers, and mining interests; their activities would not be permitted on Category A lands. There would be a loss of revenue from areas that would otherwise be mined. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

Major portions of construction were completed in May of 1995 with installation on two Archimedes pumps and one internal helical pump. A variety of engineering modifications were made to pumps, screening facilities and fish bypass systems in the plant. The pumps ran sporadically during this interval. Fish passage work was conducted on an opportunistic schedule. Various procedures were tested for handling fish and evaluating mortality and injury cause by pump passage. Standardized procedures for conducting fish passage studies emerged from this preliminary work. These procedures, to be used for studies in 1997 and 1998, are described in this report.

Most of the preliminary research concentrated on efforts to locate descriptive material on village and land use sites in order to document evidence of human activity along the coast. These few early sites acted as a thread through which to string together the development of related Russian and American enterprise, including shipping, hunting, commerce, fox farming, fishing, mining and the business of war. Historic contexts evolved from this research, and historic properties were identified as eligible for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places. This HRS was researched and written in accordance with the Cultural Resources Management Guideline (formerly known as NPS-28) and sections 101 and 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. It develops historical themes and contexts for the land within Kenai Fjords National Park and shows how these resources relate to the surrounding areas. It also identifies and evaluates National Register eligible properties for purposes of NPS planning, interpretation, compliance, and natural and cultural resource management directives.

AN - 16345763; 6915 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan for the management and use of developed areas within Crater Lake National Park, located in southwestern Oregon, is proposed. Crater Lake, a caldera lake constituting the deepest lake in the United States, lies within the 183,244-acre national park. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative B), which would perpetuate the current management regime and allow for completion of any facilities currently under construction, were considered in the draft EIS of December 1997. The proposed action (Alternative A) would provide a mix of strategies intended to protect park resources and enhance visitor experience. Alternative C would offer a more self-directed visitor experience which would be less dependent on facilities and less structured than at present. Alternative D would enhance interpretation and provide a wider variety of commercial and National Park Service (NPS) visitor services. Alternative E would focus on concentrating visitor facilities at Rim Village. NPS interpretive services would be emphasized and commercial services modified to better serve visitors. Areas in which principal developments would occur include Rim Village, Mazama Village, Cleetwood and park headquarters at Munson Valley. At Rim Village, a visitor contact station and additional interpretation and wayside exhibits would be constructed and the cafeteria building would be converted to its original 1928 design. Commercial services at Rim Village would kept to a minimum to reduce the time spent by visitors at the site. The Rim Dormitory would be removed and the site used for bus parking. The historic landscape of the 1930s would be restored along the caldera rim. Mazama Village would become the focal point for most commercial visitor services, requiring the replacement of the Watchman restaurant with a full-service facility, the expansion of retail merchandise space, the relocation of the amphitheater to a more central site, and the addition of two group camping sites to complement the existing 40-unit Mazama Village Motor Inn and the 213-site Mazama campground. Some additional employee RV and trailer sites or, alternatively, additional dormitory space could be provided in Mazama if no sites for housing could be found outside the park. With respect to Cleetwood, boat tour frequency would be decreased and other aspects of the tour regime would be and concession boat facilities would be altered. Munson Valley would remain the focal point for park administration and housing, offering no visitor contact facility during the summer, but providing a backup visitor contact station with National History Association sales items and a post office when snow conditions make Rim Village inaccessible. This final EIS, which is issued in an abbreviated format, contains corrections and revisions to the draft EIS as well as public comments and agency responses. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would enhance educational and interpretive opportunities, promoting better visitor understanding and appreciation as well as ensuring preservation of Crater Lake. Actions at Rim Village would generally benefit the landscape of the historic district. Visitors would benefit from improved interpretive opportunities at Rim Village, Mazama Village and Cleetwood. Some historic structures would be used more intensively than the originally intended use level. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Minor, short-term impacts at Rim Village, Mazama Village, and Cleetwood would result from construction activities. Long-term impacts in these areas would amount to less than one acre of vegetation loss. The addition of a visitor contact station and the removal and revegetation of a parking lot along the rim edge at Rim Village would adversely affect cultural resources.

AN - 36414263; 6882 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Marsh-Billings National Historical Park in Woodstock, Vermont, is proposed. The park was a gift to the United States from Mary French and Laurence S. Rockefeller. Mary French Rockefeller's grandfather, Frederick Billings, developed the property into an estate in the late 1800s. Billings' stewardship efforts, including a model farm and a forest, were influenced by George Perkins Marsh, a noted conservationist. The area was established as a national historical park in 1992 in order to interpret the history and evolution of conservation stewardship in America; to recognize the contributions made by Marsh and Billings to conservation; and to preserve the Marsh-Billings Mansion as a historical landmark. The park consists of three distinct areas: a 550-acre forest on the slopes of Mount Tom and remnants of a tree plantation system begun by Frederick Billings in the 1870's; the mansion, constructed in 1807 on a promontory at the head of Elm and River streets; and the Billings Farm and Museum, an 88-acre working farm. Two alternatives, the Partnership Park Concept (the proposed action) and the Independent Coordinated Park Management Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the park would be jointly managed by the National Park Service and the Woodstock Foundation, which operates the Billings Farm and Museum. On arrival, visitors would park their cars at Billings Farm and Museum, which would be expanded to serve as an orientation center for the entire park. Basic services such as restrooms, museum shops, and information about park activities will be at this center. Fees would be charged for admission to the facility as well as scheduled tours of the mansion and residential complex. The carriage barn at the mansion would be renovated so that it could house exhibits and administrative offices. The renovation would cost $2.4 million; the annual federal operating budget for the park would be $1.2 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the implementation would enhance visitor appreciation of the conservation movement in the 19th century. Park visitation would increase, and the resulting increase in tourism would benefit the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: None.

AN - 36404606; 6877 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of section 3X of the Natchez Trace Parkway, located in southwestern Mississippi, is proposed. The parkway follows the alignment of the historic Natchez Trace, which extended from Natchez, Mississippi, to Nashville, Tennessee, and was the main overland link between the lower Mississippi and the central territory in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. In 1988, the 445-mile parkway was established as a National Historic Park; the authorizing statute included a provision to conduct a feasibility study for completing the southern terminus. The southern terminus is one of two parkway segments remaining to be completed. The southern end of the parkway is currently eight miles outside Natchez at US 61. The parkway has been partially constructed from US 61 to US 84/98, but this four-mile segment will not open until a terminus alternative is selected and fully constructed. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative 1 would not extend the parkway beyond its current terminus but would require the construction of an interchange at US 84/98 to provide access to the unopened parkway segment. Under Alternatives 2 and 3, the parkway would end at Liberty Road or Seargeant Prentiss Drive, respectively, and a new interchange would be required for either location. From these terminus points, parkway users would access the river bluffs and downtown Natchez via city streets. The routes for Alternative 2 and Alternative 3 would follow a common alignment within the existing National Park Service (NPS) right-of-way for 3.6 miles between US 84/98 and the vicinity of Melvin Bayou. At that point, Alternative 2 would leave the NPS right-of-way and proceed southwest to Liberty Road; Alternative 3 would stay entirely within the NPS right-of-way. The estimated constructions costs for Alternative 1 and Alternative 2 are $442,000 and $12.0 million, respectively. Alternative 3 is estimated to cost $12.7 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would fulfill the intent of the 1938 legislation that authorized construction of the Natchez Trace Parkway. The city of Natchez was the cornerstone of the old trace, and completion of the parkway leading into Natchez is essential to achieving the purpose of the parkway. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Alternative 2 would require the displacement of 17 residences and nine commercial and industrial properties. Alternative 3 not would require any displacements. The construction and operation of the parkway would disturb up to 58 acres of wildlife habitat and 12.5 acres of wetlands.

AN - 36411154; 6873 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for the Judith, Valley, and Phillips resource areas, located in north-central Montana, is proposed. The areas contain 2.8 million surface acres and 3.4 million acres of federal mineral estate within the Lewistown District. Focal issues identified during the scoping process and addressed in the final EIS of September 1992 include land acquisition and disposal, access to federal lands, off-road-vehicle (ORV) use, oil and gas leasing and development, hard-rock mining, riparian and wetland management within watersheds, elk and bighorn sheep habitat management, prairie dog and black-footed ferret management, and areas of special management concern, such as rivers possibly eligible for inclusion in the National System of Wild and Scenic Rivers; scenic areas; and areas containing rare resources such as endangered species. Five alternatives were originally considered in the Final EIS however, this draft supplement considers two additional alternatives for oil and gas leasing within the resource areas. The preferred alternative (Alternative G) would impose leasing restrictions on sensitive wildlife and riparian-wetland areas. Under this alternative, no lands would be made available under standard-term oil and gas leasing terms, 2.2 million acres would be subject to special stipulations, 22,754 acres would be open to leasing with no-surface-occupancy (NSO) restrictions, and 140,282 acres would be closed to leasing. By contrast, the plan proposed in the final EIS would have allowed the opening of 1.47 million acres to standard-term oil and gas leasing, 1.76 million acres to leasing with stipulations, and 34,818 acres to leasing with NSO restrictions, plus the closure of 117,962 acres to leasing. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would institute special protections for wildlife areas that are potential sites for oil and gas exploration and leasing. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Oil and gas development, and other exploitative land uses would adversely affect vegetation, streams and associated fishery habitat, soils, and air and water quality within the resource areas. Road construction upgrade and pipeline construction would temporarily displace some wildlife. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

AN - 36417005; 6867 AB - PURPOSE: The suitability of certain land for surface coal mining operations in Fall Creek Falls State Park and Natural Area, located in central Tennessee, is evaluated. A petition was filed by concerned citizens, Save Our Cumberland Mountains, and Tennessee Citizens for Wilderness Planning. The petition area covers approximately 85,588 acres and encompasses the entire watershed and viewshed of Fall Creek Falls Park, although surface mining is prohibited by statute on 18,719 of those acres. The petition alleges that reclamation of these lands is not technologically or economically feasible; and that mining of these lands would disturb a fragile ecosystem and historic lands, reduce the availability of a public water supply, and be incompatible with the local land use plans and management plans. The central issue in the petition is the potential for acid mine drainage outside the Park. Five alternatives available to the Office of Surface Mining, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 4), are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative 1 would involve granting the petition and designating the entire area as unsuitable for coal mining operations. Alternative 2 (the preferred alternative) would involve denying the petition and permitting coal mining to occur, but requiring an EIS be prepared for each proposed mining operation. Alternative 3 would involve designating portions of the petition as unsuitable for certain types of coal mining operations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Granting the petition would have a stimulative effect on the local economy, but denying the petition would help to protect riparian areas and the public water supply. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The mining of the area would result in reduced water quality during construction of access roads and sediment basins, the loss of soil productivity during stockpiling and early stages of reclamation, the removal of timber and wildlife habitat in active mining areas, adverse effects on visual quality; noise and vibration from blasting and heavy machinery, adverse subsidence impacts associated with underground mining, increased sedimentation in area streams, and increased water treatment costs, health screenings, and illnesses. The natural landscape and historic nature of the Trail of Tears site would be adversely affected.

Preparation date: April 23, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - TRANSCOLORADO GAS TRANSMISSION PROJECT BETWEEN THE PICEANCE BASIN SOUTHWEST OF MEEKER, COLORADO, AND BLOOMFIELD, NEW MEXICO (FINAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF JULY 1992). AN - 36411933; 6863 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a natural gas pipeline in western Colorado and northwestern New Mexico to transport natural gas produced in the Rocky Mountain region to a pipeline terminus at the Blanco gas treatment plant near Bloomfield, New Mexico, is proposed. The project would require the issuance of rights-of-way permits by the Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management. The gas transported by the pipeline system would be commingled with gas from other sources at the Blanco plant and then distributed to southern California and Midwest markets via the El Paso or Transwestern pipeline. The applicant's proposal would involve a 306-mile pipeline system, which would use 22- and 24-inch-diameter pipeline and include six compressor stations, one upgraded compressor station, and six meter stations. Under the federally preferred alternative considered in the final EIS of July 1992, the pipeline system would extend only 290 miles; all other design specifications, including the number of compressor stations and meter stations, would remain the same as under the applicant's proposal. Block valves, pigging facilities (cleaning devices), corrosion protection facilities (cathodic stations), and communication facilities would be included in the project. The pipeline would be constructed within a 75-foot-wide right-of-way, although the permanent right-of-way would be 50 feet wide. This final supplement to the final EIS considers specific route changes and realignments and the reauthorization of a 25-foot temporary-use area for the temporary stockpiling of spoil and topsoil during digging. Some 32 realignments within the approved right-of-way would avoid steep slope construction, side slope construction, and difficult construction related to drainages; another 28 route changes, totaling 22.9 miles, would be in response to construction feasibility and landowner concerns. The construction is scheduled to begin in June 1998. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The pipeline would transport up to 300 million cubic feet of gas per day, providing cheap power to residential and commercial users in southern California and the Midwest. Demand for foreign sources of power in these regions would decline. The three main- line construction spreads would employ an average of 480 workers each, with a maximum of 550 employees during peak construction, which would last 10 weeks. In total, approximately 1,440 workers would be employed at any one time during construction. System operations would employ 20 persons and result in increases in local property tax bases. The route changes would reduce impacts to soil erosion and water resources, including 3.1 acres of wetlands. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The development of pipeline rights-of-way and compressor and meter stations under the preferred alternative would result in the disturbance of 2,865 acres, including 745 acres of forest. Soils, archaeological resources, and visual resources would be degraded as a result of rights-of-way disturbance. Crop production would be decreased on 80 acres of prime farmland and 111 acres of farmland of statewide importance. Five river crossings, five major streams, and 19 minor perennial streams would be involved during construction, and 36 acres would be disturbed within the Palisade municipal watershed. The construction activities would result in the short-term degradation of local air quality and the emission of noise. The establishment of temporary use areas would disturb 366 acres throughout the length of the pipeline.

AN - 16342349; 6862 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of a plan for fish and wildlife protection measures and the reliability of water supply for irrigation in the Yakima River Basin, located in southern Washington, is proposed. The Yakima River, a tributary of the Columbia River, drains an area of about 6,000 square miles, extending 200 miles from the eastern slopes of the central Cascade Mountains southeast to its confluence with the Columbia River near Richland, Washington. The Yakima River and its tributaries support three hydropower projects, six federal reservoirs, five major diversion dams, various irrigation canals and pumping plants, fish and wildlife ecosystems, drinking water, and recreation. The first phase of a river basin enhancement program was implemented in 1982; activities included the construction of fish passage and protective facilities. Phase two of the program was never implemented pending resolution of the Yakima Indian Nation's water claims. Phase two would consist of a Basin Conservation Program designed to reduce water diversions and increase the amount of water available for irrigation. The Program would involve the preparation of water conservation plans, testing the feasibility of water conservation measures, and implementing those measures considered feasible. Instream target flows would be increased by 50 cubic feet per second for each 27,000 acre-feet of reduced annual water diversion achieved through the conservation program. An irrigation demonstration project for the Yakima Indian Nation would be implemented, and existing irrigation canals would be lined and piping would be upgraded. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative 1 would implement all programs, except the Basin Conservation Program. Alternative 2 would implement all programs. Alternative 3 would implement all programs except the plan to augment Kachess Lake from the flows of Cabin Creek and Silver Creek. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Any one of the action alternatives would improve water supply in the Yakima River Basin and thereby benefit salmon, steelhead, and other fish. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under Alternative 2 and Alternative 3, groundwater levels would be lowered and aquifers would receive less recharge.

AN - 36414480; 6872 AB - PURPOSE: The exchange of approximately 70,000 acres of private lands for 70,000 acres of public lands, including mineral rights, near Kingman, Arizona, is proposed. The area includes portions of Dutch Flat and the Hualapai and McCracken mountains. The area has a mixed checkerboard ownership pattern as a result of an 1860s policy of granting the railroad odd-numbered sections of land for each mile of railroad built. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) would acquire lands mostly in the mountains and foothills, while the Santa Fe Pacific Railroad Company, Ironhorse Investors, and Ben Brooks and Associates lands in the Dutch Flat area. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the private lands would transfer into public ownership and be managed according to BLM multiple-use mandate. Permitted uses in the area include cattle grazing, recreational activities, mineral exploration, and wildlife management. The public lands would transfer to private ownership and be managed according to the development plans of the proponents, who hope to enhance land sales and subsequent development. The lands would be sold mostly in 40 acre parcels, with some 160-acre parcels. The management plan for the Kingman Resource Area would be amended because 10,000 acres selected by the proponents were not identified for disposal in the plan; the affected acreage includes 1,800 acres in the White-Margined Area of Critical Environmental Concern. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The acquisition of the offered lands by the BLM would result in greater levels of protection for several species listed as threatened or endangered. The BLM would acquire 10.7 miles of riparian habitat and associated stream segments. The local economy would be indirectly and positively affected through increased property tax revenues. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would include unavoidable adverse impacts to nine prehistoric camps and six historic sites. Recreationists would lose the use of 137 miles of roads in Dutch Flat and the Huakaoai Valley. Wildlife may be adversely affected by increased traffic, off-road vehicles, harassment, and mortality due to free roaming of cats and dogs.

AN - 36404207; 6852 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for 291,000 acres of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) public land surface and 1.4 million acres of subsurface federal mineral estate within the Wyoming portion of the Newcastle Resource Area, located in northeastern Wyoming, is proposed. This area includes all public lands in Crook, Niobrara, and Weston counties. Focal issues identified in the scoping process include the retention or disposal of public lands, surface disturbance, and special management areas designations. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative, which was developed by combining parts of Alternative A, Alternative B, and Alternative C, the federal mineral estate would be open to minerals sale and development, subject to appropriate restrictions. Oil and gas parcels would be leased under current Wyoming standard stipulations and mitigation guidelines. Coal classifications on about 194,500 acres of federal coal lands would be terminated. The collection of paleontological resources would be managed through a permit system, although individuals would be allowed to collect limited quantities of fossils and petrified wood for personal use. No development would be allowed in close proximity to historic sites, recreation areas, floodplains, wetlands, and other sensitive areas. Wildlife habitat would be managed to promote biodiversity and to provide a prey base for predatory species; prairie dog control would not be permitted unless a prairie dog town has created substantial habitat damage. Approximately 11,935 acres of forest land would be managed by implementing sound silvicultural practices that include two- or three-cut shelterwood-harvest, commercial, and pre-commercial thinnings; allowable harvesting levels would be set at 4.7 million board feet of timber per decade. Authorized grazing on managed lands would not exceed 48,818 animal unit months. Motorized vehicle use would be restricted to roads and designated trails. This draft EIS revises and replaces a draft EIS issued in September 1993; the EIS is being reissued because some government agencies had provided comments on the draft EIS after the comment period had ended. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, natural resources would be protected while permitting reasonable levels of economic development to take place; this would reflect policy and management changes since the predecessor plan was implemented in 1981. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some land designations and management strategies would conflict with existing or proposed land uses. Restrictions placed on development, particularly within areas of critical environmental concern, could result in the loss of opportunities to develop mineral resources.

AN - 36407406; 6845 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a surface storage reservoir on a site located southwest of the city of Tucson in the vicinity of Black Wash and the Pascua Yaqui Indian Reservation near Tucson, Arizona, is proposed. The 15,000-acre-feet (15,000-af) reservoir would provide area water users with short-term delivery reliability during periods when the aqueduct system is out of service for maintenance. The aqueduct system, which begins at Lake Havasu, is capable of delivering 2.2 million af of Colorado River water annually to Phoenix and Tucson. Because Tucson is located at the terminus of the system, the city is especially vulnerable to service interruptions; stored water from the proposed reservoir would be used whenever such interruptions occur. A full reservoir would be capable of meeting winter demands for at least 30 days and peak summer demands for up to two weeks. Water would be delivered to the reservoir via the Black Mountain Pipeline. Four alternatives, including a No Federal Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Two operation schemes are under consideration for the delivery of water to the users located south of the Tucson turnout. One option would involve constructing a separate pumping plant at the reservoir; the other option (the preferred alternative) would involve building a bypass pipeline parallel to the existing Black Mountain Pipeline. Depending on the ultimate configuration of the reservoir, the reservoir could inundate some lands owned by the Pascua Yaqui Tribe; in that event, a land exchange with the reservation would occur. Recreational facilities being considered for the reservoir include a campground, swimming beach, boating beach, headquarters facility, and parking lots. The total estimated cost under the proposed action is $82.1 million in 1995 dollars. A 1995 state law known as Proposition 200 prohibited the direct use of CAP water by the city of Tucson for at least five years. In response to this action, the Bureau of Reclamation will identify a preferred alternative at a later date. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide a reliable backup water supply for the city of Tucson and save the city the expense of maintaining a costly well system. The reservoir would provide public recreation opportunities in an area that lacks a significant water resource. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Up to 1,560 acres of semidesert grassland habitat would be inundated under the proposed action. The construction would displace lands that contain at least 214 Pima pineapple cacti, an endangered species. The reservoir would lose a significant amount of water to evaporation and seepage. The reservoir site would be located on a potential fissure area; as a result, some imported material would be required for the embankment.

AN - 16353473; 6840 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of the operation and design of Provincetown Municipal Airport in Provincetown, Massachusetts, is proposed. The commercial service airport is located two miles from the center of Provincetown on 322 acres within the Cape Cod National Seashore. The airport has one 3,500-foot runway, no associated runway safety areas, and limited instrument landing capability for use in inclement weather. Since 1990, commercial service at the airport has been growing at the rate of 15 percent per year. The proposed action would involve the construction of runway safety areas, a garage for storing firefighting equipment, general aviation parking apron areas to accommodate 40 aircraft, and an additional 700 feet of usable runway. Three to six alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered for each of the four construction projects in this draft EIS. The preferred alternatives would involve the construction of 150-foot-wide and 300-foot-long runway safety areas at each end of the runway, the construction of a firefighting equipment garage within the employee parking lot as close as possible to the existing hangar, the expansion of the paved area by 12,750 square feet and the turf area by 64,950 square feet, the extension of Runway 7 by 350 feet and Runway 25 by 350 feet, and the construction of expanded safety areas for the expanded runway. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Three of the four projects would satisfy safety mandates of the Federal Aviation Administration; the runway extension would ensure that the airport is capable of supporting a viable level of commercial air service into the next century. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The runway construction would require the taking of 1.8 acres of wetlands and create a slight visual intrusion in the national seashore area. The general aviation parking area would require the taking of 0.06 acres of wetlands.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the capability of the Memcor microfiltration (MF) membrane technology and the ZeeWeed MF membrane technology to treat wastewater for indirect potable reuse to supplement the City of McAllen's water supply. The Memcor and the ZeeWeed MF units were evaluated while treating secondary effluent from the McAllen WWTP. The ZeeWeed MF system was also evaluated when used in conjunction with the ZenoGem process to treat screened, de-gritted wastewater and make it suitable for direct processing by reverse osmosis (RO). The ZenoGem process is designed to biologically treat screened, de-gritted sewage and microfilter the 'secondary effluent' that is produced.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-03-24 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLAN, ISLE ROYALE NATIONAL PARK, KEWEENAW COUNTY, MICHIGAN. AN - 36403906; 6830 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan (GMP) for the Isle Royale National Park, located on an island archipelago on the northwestern section of Lake Superior in the northern tip of the upper peninsula of Michigan, is proposed. The archipelago consists of one large island about 45 miles and nine miles wide, surrounded by 400 small islands. The park is located 60 miles from Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula, 22 miles from Grand Portage, Minnesota, and 35 miles from Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. The park was established in 1931, and its current management plan was developed in 1963. In recent years, all but one percent of its land has been designated as federal wilderness. Isle Royale is primarily a northwoods wilderness and maritime park; an overnight lodge is located on the eastern end of the island. Visitors come to the island to hike, backpack, motorboat, canoe, kayak, sail, scuba dive, and fish. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (Alternative D) would emphasize the separation of motorized and non-motorized uses and the improvement of visitor experiences. Campgrounds would be designed and access provided to emphasize the separation of users. For example, some shoreline campgrounds would have docks and some would not. Rock Harbor, Windigo, and Mott Island would remain developed zones, except that overnight accommodations at Rock Harbor would be more rustic and some services would be reduced. The Edisen Fishery and Rock Harbor Lighthouse would continue to be maintained and interpreted. Frontcountry zones would be near developed areas where there are natural and cultural features of special interest, such as bogs, scenic views, and historic lighthouses. Five sites would serve as wilderness portal zones providing access to wilderness areas by water taxi and ferry stops. Most trails would be zoned as backcountry. A complete inventory of natural and cultural resources would be undertaken and maintained. One-time research and monitoring costs are estimated at $2.2 million, and construction costs are estimated at $4.4 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would provide management guidelines for the park for the next 10 to 15 years and help to reduce potential conflicts among recreationists and enhance the wilderness experience of all visitors. The removal of structures in scenic areas would significantly improve visual aesthetics. The plan modifications would generally facilitate the preservation of historically and archaeologically significant resources within the park. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some displacement of wildlife would result from anticipated increases in visitor use and dispersal of visitors throughout the park. Increased activity would cause wolves to avoid areas of current use. Placement of campground and docks would result in disturbance of archaeological resources by visitor use. Because of fewer docks, those in the middle of the island will not be as safe as those on the outer rim of the island.

AN - 36411015; 6826 AB - PURPOSE: The preservation of the historic trail Ala Kahakai along the west coast of the island of Hawaii is proposed. The Ala Kahakai follows a 175-mile portion of the prehistoric "ala loa" (long trail) parallel to the seacoast extending from Upola Point on the north tip of Hawaii Island down the west coast of the island around Ka Lae to the east boundary of Hawaii's Volcanoes National Park at the ancient shoreline temple known as Wahula Heiau. In prehistoric times, the ala loa circuited the entire island and linked villages to one another. The Ala Kahakai combines surviving elements of the prehistoric ala loa with segments of later historic government trails that developed parallel to the prehistoric route or were constructed over original trail segments, and with more recent pathways and roads. Significant sections of the ancient trail remain intact. In some locations where it has been eroded away by ocean, covered by lava flows, or damaged by vegetative overgrowth or human actions, the potential exists for reconstruction using traditional building methods. Establishment of recreational trail links would create a continuous trail. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this final EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative B) would provide National Park Service administration and oversight of the trail in coordination with the state and county. The trail would be recognized as a continuous route and which over time would become continuous on the ground. Alternative C would involve state management of the trail. Alternative D would be similar to Alternative B, except that the trail would be recognized as a continuous route, and only intact prehistoric and historic sections would be protected. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Each of the action alternatives would seek to preserve the trail and inform the public of its historic and cultural significance. Trail design, construction, and maintenance would emphasize or reflect safety, resource protection, and funding availability. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Regardless of the alternative selected, additional use of the trail would increase the potential for damage to archaeological sites and other cultural resources along the trail.

AN - 36410797; 6811 AB - PURPOSE: The authorization for the Bureau of Land Management to lease Forest Service lands for phosphate mining within the Caribou National Forest, located in southeastern Idaho, is proposed. The lease tracts are called the Dairy Sincline Tract (containing about 3,259 acres) and the Manning Creek Tract (containing about 1,920 acres). Two mining companies, the JR Simplot Company and Nu-West Industries, have requested that these tracts be offered for competitive bid because phosphate resources have been depleted within existing mines in the area. Issues identified during the scoping process include the likely effects of mining on roadless area characteristics and wilderness features, backcountry recreation and hunting opportunities and experiences, wildlife and wildlife habitats including old growth vegetation, range livestock manageability, regional social and economic conditions, and treaty rights of the Shoshone-Bannock tribes, and wetlands, riparian areas, water quality and fisheries in the Salt River and Blackfoot River drainages. Five alternatives, including a No Lease Alternative (Alternative 1), were considered in the draft EIS of July 1997. Under the proposed action (Alternative 2), two development scenarios are being considered for the Manning Creek Tract. Under one scenario, the mine would be developed as a continuation of the existing Smoky Canyon Mine; the transportation of the ore from the mine would rely on the existing road system. Under the other scenario, the mine would be developed independently of the Smoky Canyon Mine. The ore milling and processing facilities would be located in the lease tract area, and ore would be transported to the west in a slurry line. Four pits and ten waste rock storage areas would be developed within the Dairy Syncline Tract, and the ore would be transported either by truck or by rail line. The Manning Creek Tract would produce an estimated 30 million tons of ore over a 15-year period, and the Dairy Syncline Tract would produce an estimated 20 million tons over ten years. This final EIS, which is issued in an abbreviated format, contains public comments and agency responses and an assessment of the presence of selenium at the proposed mining site. The draft EIS has been reissued as a companion document. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would ensure a steady supply of phosphate, which along with nitrogen, potassium, and other minerals is vital to plant growth, and in both its elemental State and combined chemical form, is widely used in agriculture and industry. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The mining and development activities would adversely affect the natural integrity, remoteness, and wilderness character of the dry Ridge, Huckleberry Basin, and Sage Creek roadless areas. Up to 53 acres of old-growth forest would be adversely affected. Recreation resources would be adversely affected. Finespotted cutthroat trout (a Forest service sensitive species) could be adversely affected under Manning Creek Tract leasing and development. Exposed soil resulting from road construction and exploration activities would lead to erosion and some increase in stream sedimentation. Over 5,000 acres of grazing lands would be lost until such time as reclamation were complete. Shoshone-Bannock treaty rights could be adversely affected. Visual resources could also be affected.

AN - 36413753; 6804 AB - PURPOSE: The modification of reservoir operations in the Truckee River basin located in northwestern Nevada and northeastern California, is proposed. The Upper Truckee River has its headwaters in California's Sierra Nevada, from which it flows into the southern end of Lake Tahoe. The Truckee River originates at the outlet of Lake Tahoe, flows about 105 miles through northeastern California and northwestern Nevada, and terminates in Pyramid Lake. The Truckee River basin includes the area that drains naturally to the Truckee River and its tributaries, into Lake Tahoe, and into Pyramid Lake. Although primarily stored in California, most of the water of the Truckee River is used in Nevada to meet the municipal and industrial demands in Truckee Meadows, fish requirements, and hydropower and irrigation demands. On average, about one-fifth of the Truckee River's annual flow is diverted through the Truckee Canal to irrigate agricultural lands in the Bureau of Reclamation's Newlands Project. Changes in water flow are needed in order to conserve the endangered and threatened fishes of Pyramid Lake (cuiui and Lahontan cutthroat trout) and to meet the water demands of Truckee Meadows during drought conditions. Issues of concern include the effects on water resources, water quality, biological resources of lakes and reservoirs, biological resources of rivers and tributaries, recreation resources, Indian trust assets, socioeconomic and cultural resources, and endangered, threatened, and other special status species. Also of concern is the effect of sedimentation and erosion. Two alternatives, including a No-Action Alternative are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed water agreement (the TROA Alternative), signatories would be allowed to retain in storage all or a portion of the water that they were previously entitled to divert from the Truckee River. When such water was in storage, it would be classified by categories, and records would be kept of the storage and release of such water. In addition, the water stored in individual Truckee River reservoirs would be allowed to be exchanged with storage in other Truckee River reservoirs. A scheduled release from one reservoir could be substituted for a release from another reservoir, and the respective water accounts in each reservoir would be credited and debited as appropriate. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would develop a reliable and demand-responsive water system for region, increasing water supply during drought conditions, enhancing spawning flows for Pyramid Lake fishes, enhancing instream flows and water quality, and maintaining reservoir storage levels to serve recreational uses. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the water quality of the Truckee River downstream from the agreement area could violate standards during dry periods. A slight decrease in hydropower generation and revenues would occur. LEGAL MANDATES: Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), and Public Law 101-618.

Preparation date: March 12, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - CALFED BAY-DELTA PROGRAM, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36389801; 6803 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of an ecosystem restoration and water management program for the San Francisco Bay and Sacramento-San Delta, located in northern California, is proposed. The program area extends from southern to northern California and includes the lowlands and uplands in the Sacramento and San Joaquin River watersheds; Suisun Bay and Marsh, San Pablo Bay, and the San Francisco Bay watershed; and Tulare Lake, Consumnes River, Mokelumne River, and other rivers and waterways connected to the San Joaquin River. The bay-delta region itself refers to the 738,000-acre area south of the city of Sacramento where the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers meet, an environmentally diverse area that supports 750 plant and animal species within the largest wetlands area in the western United States. The region also provides water to two-thirds of the state's residents and much of its agricultural industry. In recent years, the bay-delta region has experienced a steady decline as a fish and wildlife habitat and as a reliable source of water because of population increases and economic development pressures. The CALFED program was established in June 1995 by 15 state and federal agencies in order to address the complex issues affecting the bay-delta region. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft programmatic EIS. Each of the action alternatives would include a core program that would address the issues of ecosystem restoration, water use efficiency, water quality, Delta levee and channel integrity, water transfers, watershed management coordination, and a range of storage and conveyance options. Storage options would include 3.0 million acre-feet (MAF) surface storage on Sacramento River tributaries upstream of the delta, 500 thousand acre-feet (TAF) of storage on San Joaquin River tributaries, two MAF of storage off-aqueduct south of the delta, 200 acre-feet in-delta storage, and 250 and 500 TAF of groundwater storage in the Sacramento and San Joaquin valleys, respectively. Conveyance options would include relying on the existing system while making some minor changes in the south delta, enlarging channels within the delta, and a conveyance channel for moving water around the delta. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The program would help to restore a vital wetlands area, lower toxicants in the water system, conserve over three million acre-feet of water by the year 2020, strengthen levees throughout the Delta, reduce drought-induced economic damage by improving flows from one region to another, and improve overall watershed management. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction of storage and conveyance facilities would have an adverse short-term effect on water quality and an adverse long-term effect on fish habitat and migration. Increased water conservation for ecosystem restoration would reduce water availability for agricultural and municipal uses during drought conditions. Air quality would be adversely affected for a short period. Vegetation and wildlife communities would also be adversely affected. Farmland and other agricultural land would be converted, and job losses could occur. The project could include significant visual impacts.

AN - 16342158; 6795 AB - PURPOSE: The development of a supplemental water supply for agricultural and municipal uses, located in central Utah, is proposed. Presently, the demand for municipal water exceeds the available supply and water for agricultural irrigation is not adequate at the time when it is needed in late summer. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, a dam and reservoir would be constructed on Gooseberry Creek, and water would be diverted through the existing Narrows Tunnel to Cottonwood Creek. Three pipelines would be constructed to deliver water to the existing distribution systems located near Fairview, Utah. Recreation facilities would be developed at the reservoir for boating, camping, and picnicking, and a 2,500 acre-foot minimum pool for fish habitat would be provided. This alternative would develop 4,920 acre-feet of water for irrigation that would be used on 15,420 acres of land to supplement existing irrigation supplies. The project water and existing water supplies would be used primarily for the production of alfalfa and hay to support beef and dairy enterprises. In addition, 480 acre-feet per year would be used in the communities of Fairview, Spring City, and Moroni for the irrigation of lawns and gardens. The reservoir would have a total capacity of 17,000 acre-feet and a water surface area of 604 acres. Under existing water rights agreements, a maximum of 5,400 acre-feet of water would be released through the Narrows Tunnel. The reservoir would maintain a minimum pool of 2,500 acre-feet that would not be drawn down. A Smaller Reservoir Alternative, which would have a maximum capacity of 7,900 acre-feet, is also under consideration in this draft EIS. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The expanded water supply would support anticipated population growth in the project area and satisfy demands for improved agricultural irrigation. In addition, the project would provide additional recreation and fishery opportunities in Sanpete County. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would permanently alter use on 786 acres of land currently functioning as rangeland and wildlife habitat. The reservoir would inundate 100 acres of wetlands, one mile of stream fishery in upper Gooseberry Creek, and 4.3 miles of Yellowstone cutthroat trout spawning and rearing habitat in the Creek tributaries. Traffic volume would increase by 19 percent in the project area. LEGAL MANDATES: Colorado River Storage Project Act of 1956 (43 U.S.C. 620).

AN - 36389831; 6783 AB - PURPOSE: The leasing of tribal lands for the construction and operation of a solid waste management facility on the Nambe Pueblo Indian Reservation, located in north-central New Mexico, is proposed. The 19,000-acre reservation is located 17 miles northwest of Santa Fe, New Mexico. The facility, which would be located one mile south-southeast of the village of Name, would be used for the disposal of municipal solid waste and construction and demolition waste generated on the reservation and in the surrounding counties of Santa Fe, Los Alamos, Rio Arriba, San Miguel, and Taos. The Nambe Pueblo Development Corporation would receive a portion of the profits from the facility, which would be constructed and operated by the High Mesa Environmental, LLC. Eight alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed alternative, the initial construction would consist of a single waste cell in the northwestern portion of the site, with an operations area and a monitoring well. Eventually, the project would consist of six disposal cells covering an area of about 42 acres. Three of these cells would be limited to construction and demolition waste. The interior of the cells would be lined with local clay soils or recompacted in-situ clay. The facility would include a water diversion system, two detention ponds, and a leachate evaporation pond. An access road, approximately two miles long, would be constructed to the site. The project would have an expected life of 30 years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide a waste disposal facility to an area in critical need for such a facility. The operation of the facility would also provide for local employment and training in an area of high unemployment. The access road would provide needed infrastructure to help support economic development on the reservation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, approximately 100 acres of land would be disturbed. Air quality in the immediate would be degraded by fugitive dust and particulate emissions.

AN - 36416263; 6780 AB - PURPOSE: The designation of portions of the Squirrel River as a component in the national wild and scenic river system is proposed. The Squirrel River rises in the southern portion of the Baird Mountains in northwestern Alaska and flows south and then southeast 72 miles to the Kobuk River at Kiana, Alaska, which is located 60 air miles east of Kotzebue. The project area includes the main stem of the Squirrel River and five tributaries: the West Fork, the Headwaters Fork, the Home Route, the North Fork, and the Omar. The Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act of 1980 had designated the Squirrel River as a candidate for the wild and scenic river system, and since 1980, the river has been under protective management until its ultimate status was determined. Issues raised during the scoping process include limitations placed on subsistence uses of the river, increases in tourism, and restrictions on mining and other economic uses. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative D, the preferred alternative), are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative A would designate the Squirrel River, the West Fork, and the Headwaters Fork as a scenic river area. Alternative B would designate the Squirrel River, the West Fork, and the Home Route as a wild river area. Alternative C would designate the upper portion of the Squirrel River as a wild river, and the lower portion as a scenic river area. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative D, the No Action Alternative), the Squirrel River would be classed as not suitable for designation as part of the wild and scenic river system. If Congress took no additional action, protective management of the river would end in three years. Approximately 81,501 acres of community grant selections would become available for conveyance to the state of Alaska under this alternative. This alternative was designated the preferred alternative because of the remoteness of the area and limited human uses in the foreseeable future. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Non-designation would allow for management flexibility and the potential for the development of roads and cash economy in the area. The state of Alaska would have a greater role in the development and management of the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Unless protected by new state laws, subsistence activities would be minimized in future land management scenarios.

AN - 36411149; 6773 AB - PURPOSE: The replacement of the existing water supply pipeline serving Mesa County with a larger diameter pipeline by the Ute Water Conservancy District, located in western Colorado, is proposed. Most of the existing pipeline route consists of rugged river canyons formed by the Colorado River and Plateau Creek. The 2.5-mile portion of the pipeline in De Beque Canyon is located on the dry beaches, side slopes, and mesa tops along the north canyon wall paralleling Interstate 70. The portion in Plateau Creek Canyon is located along the canyon bottom for a total length of 13 miles. The existing 24-inch-diameter pipeline is deteriorating, lacks adequate hydraulic capacity to meet peak-day demands, and is subject to failure from landslides and stream erosion. The pipeline is the water district's sole conduit for conveying water to its treatment plant. The water district has a right-of-way (ROW) to operate and maintain the pipeline on public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management. A new permit would be necessary if the replacement pipeline were outside the existing ROW. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, were considered in the draft EIS of June 1997. Under the applicant's preferred alternative (Alternative A), the replacement pipeline would be 15.4 miles long and include about 11.3 miles of 48-inch pipe and 4.1 miles of 54-inch pipe. This alternative would generally follow the existing ROW although the alignment within Plateau Canyon would be modified in order to avoid geologic hazards and to minimize impacts to other canyon resources. A tunnel section within the canyon would be constructed, beginning about 3.4 miles up gradient of the treatment plant near the mouth of Plateau Creek. The tunnel would link the replacement pipeline segment in the Plateau Creek corridor with the segment parallel to Interstate 70. Most of the tunnel alignment is on public lands, although the eastern end is located on private property. This final EIS, which is issued in an abbreviated format, contains corrections and revisions to the draft EIS as well as public comments and agency responses. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The construction of a replacement pipeline would ensure a reliable water supply for the 60,000 Mesa County residents. If water delivery to the treatment plant were not increased, the county would face a water crisis within the next 20 years. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would adversely affect 7.5 acres of wetlands and would result in 13 stream crossings. The depletion of the Colorado River by 3,200 acre-feet per year would adversely affect endangered Colorado River fish.

AN - 36407266; 6772 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a revised management plan for the Cape Cod National Seashore, located in southeastern Massachusetts, is proposed. The national seashore, which lies mostly along the eastern portion of Cape Cod, is about 100 miles southeast of Boston and 275 miles northeast of New York City. Within the seashore are segments of the towns of Chatham, Orleans, Eastham, Wellfleet, Truro, and Provincetown. The current management plan was completed in 1970 and is no longer adequate to address the policy and operational issues now facing the national seashore. Issues identified during the scoping process include air pollution levels, flood and erosion damages, coastal water pollution, diminished wildlife habitat, protection of historic buildings, public access and facilities, and private ownership of some national seashore lands. Three alternatives are considered in this final EIS. Alternative 1 would continue the management practices outlined in the 1970 plan. Alternative 2 (the proposed action) would place a greater emphasis on collaborative stewardship and federal-local government cooperation in order to preserve the natural and cultural resources along Cape Cod. Existing public use facilities and site attractions, such as the Salt Pond visitor center and the Fort Hill/Penniman house area, would be improved. However, no new major developments would be undertaken, and the overall impacts of development would be reduced wherever possible. Alternative 3 would be a variation of Alternative 2, requiring the National Park Service (NPS) to take a more active role in resource protection. The estimated implementation costs of the proposed action range from $6.0 million to 14.0 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would enable the NPS and local governments to respond to a set of problems related to the area's rapid population growth, particularly the increase in the number of year-round residents. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The implementation of the plan would require additional NPS staff and increases in operational funding. Because of shoreline migration, there would be a continuing threat of cultural resources loss. LEGAL MANDATES: Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972 (43 U.S.C. 1241) and Public Law 87-126.

Preparation date: February 18, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - OLINGHOUSE MINE PROJECT, WASHOE COUNTY, NEVADA. AN - 36390065; 6767 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of the Olinghouse Mine by Alta Gold Company (Alta), located in northwestern Nevada, is proposed. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative A), Alta would construct and operate two open-pit mines, a waste rock dump, a haul road, a cyanide heap leach pad and other ancillary facilities associated with mining and milling and reclamation of the disturbed areas. The two open pits, which would eventually expand to become one pit, would be located in the Green Hill area north of the original Olinghouse townsite. The waste rock dump would be located in Frank Free Canyon east of the mine, while the ore crushing, milling and leaching complex would be situated south of the mine between Olinghouse Canyon and Pierson Canyon. Ancillary facilities would include haul and access roads, a water pipeline, an electric transmission line, an equipment maintenance facility, an analytical laboratory, fuel and reagent storage facilities and water and solution control structures. The project would produce approximately 600,000 ounces of gold from 9.66 million tons of ore. Approximately 43.38 million tons of waste rock would be disposed in the dump. A small fraction of the ore containing coarse-grained gold particles would be processed through a gravity mill. Mill tailings and the remaining lower grade ore would be leached using a conventional cyanide heap leach approach. The project area would comprise 214 unpatented mining claims and 11 patented claims, all of which are controlled by Alta. Approximately 4,300 acres lie within Alta's claim boundary. The mine pit would be expected to fill partially with inflow of groundwater and surface runoff to an equilibrium depth of approximately 90 feet, covering a surface area of approximately 3.4 acres. The operations plan for the mine project would extend approximately seven years, comprising five years of active mining operations followed by two years of continued ore leaching, heap detoxification and reclamation. The agency-preferred alternative would involve development of an access road that bypasses the town of Wadsworth and avoids lands within the Pyramid Lake Paiute Reservation. This final EIS, which is issued in an abbreviated format, contains corrections and revisions to the draft EIS as well as public comments and agency responses. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In addition to producing gold, as well as silver, the project would employ approximately 60 workers during construction activities and 114 workers during its operational phase. The access road would eliminate mine-related traffic from State Route 447 through Wadsworth, eliminating the risk of exposure of potential hazardous materials to the population. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under Alta's proposed action, approximately 502 acres would be disturbed by project activities, of which approximately 165 acres have already been disturbed by mining operations or exploration activities. Following mining, approximately 99 acres of pit area would be left unreclaimed. Approximately 337 acres of natural communities, consisting primarily of Wyoming big sagebrush-bottlebrush squirreltail (142 acres), Wyoming big sagebrush-Utah juniper (124 acres), and Wyoming big sagebrush-desert needlegrass (50 acres) would be disturbed. One small seasonal seep in Frank Free Canyon would be disturbed. Removal and relocation of waste rock and ore would result in permanent modifications to the topography of the area as well as permanent removal of mineral resources (gold and silver). Surface drainage patterns would be altered and surface water discharge from Olinghouse would drop by four percent. Surface disturbances would exacerbate erosion and sedimentation in the area, and withdrawal of water from Dodge Flat for the project would result in aquifer drawdown. Approximately 403 acres of wildlife habitat would be lost temporarily and 99 acres would be displaced permanently. Temporary forage losses amounting to 19 animal unit months (AUMs) and permanent losses amounting to four AUMs would result. The waste rock dump would constitute the most obtrusive visual impact of the project, and project activities would raise noise levels in the area somewhat. Demand for housing would increase somewhat, but adequate housing is available within commuting distance of the project. The risk of accidental spillage of hazardous waste would be present but low. Approximately 19 acres of habitat along the access road would be disturbed for road widening and left unreclaimed.

Preparation date: February 11, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - IMPROVEMENT OF WATER QUALITY AND CONSERVATION OF RARE SPECIES AND THEIR HABITATS ON SANTA ROSA ISLAND, CHANNEL ISLANDS NATIONAL PARK, SANTA BARBARA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF APRIL 1997). AN - 36407109; 6759 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan to improve water quality and protect riparian habitat and rare species on Santa Rosa Island, located off the coast of California, is proposed. In August 1995, the regional water quality control board issued a cleanup or abatement order directing the National Park Service to take measures to improve water quality on Santa Rosa Island. Streams on the island had been found to have high fecal coliform and pH levels. Located 15 miles south of Santa Barbara, California, the 54,000-acre island is one of five islands that comprise Channel Island National Park. In 1986, the National Park Service purchased the island from the Vail and Vickers Company, which retains the right of noncommercial use and occupancy for 25 years. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, were considered in the final EIS of April 1997. Under the proposed action presented in the final EIS, a phased reduction of cattle grazing and commercial hunting would occur over the next 14 years in order to improve water quality, protect riparian habitat areas, and conserve rare species and their habitats. Specific actions would include the immediate closure of Old Ranch and Carrington Pastures, and phased reduction of grazing in other pastures with resources at risk. Cattle exclosures would be built to protect riparian areas in Jolla Vieja Canyon and Box Springs. Deer would be removed from the island within four years, and elk would be reduced gradually over the next 14 years. This draft supplement to the final EIS considers a new proposed action which would respond to issues raised in a lawsuit brought against the National Park Service. The lawsuit contended that the phased reduction of grazing did not adequately protect Park resources. Under the new proposed action, all cattle would be removed from the island by the end of 1998, with the exception of 12 head in Lobo Pasture; the deer and elk would be removed by the end of 2011. The deer and elk population would be managed at levels that would allow rare species and their habitats to recover. A road management program would be put in place in order to reduce impacts on area streams. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the new proposed action, the project would remove the effects of overgrazing in order to conserve and restore rare plant and animal species as well as the habitats on which they depend. The project would benefit soils, water quality and riparian areas, vegetation, wildlife, rare species and their habitats, and archaeological resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the new proposed action, Vail and Vickers would have reduced revenues. The park would incur additional costs under a deer and elk management program and possibly deer and elk removal costs.

AN - 36416147; 6756 AB - PURPOSE: The operation of an open-pit gold mine by the Newmont Gold Company in the Trenton Canyon deposit, located in northern Nevada, is proposed. The project area is located 12 miles south of Lone Tree Mine, which is 34 miles east of Winnemucca and 18 miles west of Battle Mountain on Interstate 80. Located on the northwestern flank of Battle Mountain, the Trenton Canyon project spans Trout and Cottonwood creeks. Most of the project area would be located on private lands that have been previously mined, but use of public lands would be necessary for corner crossings of water and communication lines, power lines, and road rights-of-way. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would involve the expansion of existing approved facilities and the addition of facilities. The existing facilities which would be expanded would include two nearby open pits (Valmy, North Peak), two overburden disposal areas, the heap leach facility, and the access road. The expansion would include an open pit mining area at Trenton Canyon on the east side of the ridge above Cottonwood Creek, 11 overburden disposal areas, and two heap leach facilities. The access road would be realigned and widened from 60 feet to 100 feet. Mining would proceed 24 hours a day for up to seven years; an estimated 21 million tons of material would be mined annually. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would result in the employment of an average of 20 workers during the construction period and 130 permanent workers through the life of the operation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would disturb or adversely affect 2,682 acres, including 633 acres of public land. Constructing and operating the mining facilities within the Cottonwood Creek watershed could potentially alter the creek's flow, reduce surface water runoff, and change surface runoff characteristics. Mine operations would result in the loss of forage and habitat for mule deer and other wildlife. The waste rock dump sites would create a visual contrast with the surrounding countryside.

Geological Survey ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Environmental Behavior and Fate of Methyl tert-Butyl Ether (MTBE) AN - 14602245; 10616255 AB - The environmental fate and behavior of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), a gasoline oxygenate, is reviewed. MTBE dissolves readily in water and is a commonly detected groundwater pollutant. As the compound sorbs only weakly to soil and aquifer materials, sorption will not significantly retard MTBE transport by groundwater. MTBE generally resists degradation in groundwater and its atmospheric half-life can be as short as 3 d in a regional airshed. Atmospheric MTBE tends to partition into atmospheric water, including precipitation, and can result in up to 3 mu g/l or more inputs of MTBE to surface and ground water.

AN - 36401458; 6750 AB - PURPOSE: The consolidation of National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) research and administrative facilities, located in Juneau, Alaska, is proposed. The NMFS operates numerous programs and facilities in various locations throughout Alaska. The two largest NMFS programs in the Juneau area are the NMFS Alaska Regional Office (ARO) and the Auke Bay Laboratory (ABL), which is associated with the Alaska Fisheries Science Center in Seattle, Washington. The two facilities, which are located in different parts of Juneau, collaborate in the development of fishery management policies and regulations for the fisheries off the Alaska coast. The ARO is located in rented General Services Administration office space in the federal building in downtown Juneau. The ABL, which provides the scientific research needed to support fishery management decisions, is located on a 3.5-acre site located 12 miles northwest of Juneau. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. The preferred alternative would involve constructing a facility on a 22-acre site at Lena Point that is currently operating as a rock quarry owned and operated by SECON, Inc. According to the terms of a land trade under consideration, the NMFS would receive the Lena Point site and would transfer its Auke Cape property to Juneau, which in turn would transfer another quarry site to SECON. Access to the site would be provided by Point Lena Loop Road and Towers Road. The facility would include approximately 88,000 gross square feet (gsf) of administrative office space and common areas, 58,000 gsf of laboratory space, and 3,800 gsf of warehouse space. The site would be built to accommodate 273 employees and visitors. The project would include an option to incorporate the University of Alaska Fairbanks School of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences in the facility if there were funding of design and construction. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The consolidation of the two facilities would improve the overall efficiency of program operations and reduce administrative costs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction of the project would adversely affect homes located along the Point Lena Loop Road. Increased traffic along the road would increase noise levels and alter the community character.

AN - 36407192; 6740 AB - PURPOSE: The mining of nickel laterite on National Forest System lands administered by the Illinois Valley Ranger District of the Siskiyou National Forest, located in southwestern Oregon, is proposed. An ore drying and stockpile site is also proposed on lands administered by the Medford District of Bureau of Land Management. The project area occupies 24 square miles within the Rough and Ready Creek watershed, a tributary of the Illinois River. Portions of the area are within the South Kalmiopsis Roadless Area, an area known for its botanical diversity and rare plants. Issues identified during the scoping process include risks of sediment delivery and toxic spills, Port-Orford-cedar Root Disease, and spread of noxious weeds; and effects of mining on endangered and threatened fish species, scenic quality, recreation, and people living near the haul roads. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would involve mining about 3.1 acres per year over a ten-year period. Each excavation site would be cleared of all organic material and topsoil. The highest grade laterite would be excavated, screened, and loaded on trucks. The 14.3-mile haul route would use existing roads as much as possible. About 7.7 miles of road would be reconstructed (widened and surfaced) and about 0.55 miles would be newly constructed. Borrow material would be used to fill and widen some portions of the access route. The haul route would make six crossings of the main stem of Rough and Ready Creek and ten crossings of perennial tributaries. The estimated production rate would require 15 to 20 round trips per day. A preferred alternative route (Alternative 4) would require the construction of 2.7 miles of road but would avoid two crossings of Alberg Creek and three crossings of Rough and Ready Creek. A year round culvert would be placed over the Wing and Ferren ditch and culverts used for stream crossings would be removed and replace annually. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would seek to protect resources, given the claimant's right to mine in the area. Mine operation would play a direct and indirect role in the local economy through wages paid to employees. Josephine County would benefit from increased tax revenue from mine development. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, 400 cubic yards of sediment would be discharged annually into area streams; by contrast, the proposed action would result in the annual discharge of 1,700 cubic yards. All of the action alternatives would degrade the wilderness character of the South Kalmiopsis Roadless Area and increase the risk of importing root disease into the area. Indirect losses of habitat would occur for various wildlife species as well as potential effects to candidate and sensitive species.

AN - 36403520; 6737 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a natural gas pipeline in western Colorado and northwestern New Mexico to transport natural gas produced in the Rocky Mountain region to a pipeline terminus at the Blanco gas treatment plant near Bloomfield, New Mexico, is proposed. The project would require the issuance of rights-of-way permits by the Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management. The gas transported by the pipeline system would be commingled with gas from other sources at the Blanco plant and then distributed to southern California and Midwest markets via the El Paso or Transwestern pipeline. The applicant's proposal would involve a 306-mile-long pipeline system, which would use 22- and 24-inch-diameter pipeline and include six new compressor stations, one upgraded compressor station, and six meter stations. Under the federally preferred alternative presented in the final EIS of July 1992, the pipeline system would extend only 290 miles; all other design specifications, including the number of compressor stations and meter stations, would remain the same as under the applicant's proposal. Block valves, pigging facilities (cleaning devices), corrosion protection facilities (cathodic stations), and communication facilities would be included in the project. The pipeline would be constructed within a 75-foot-wide right-of-way, although the permanent rights-of-way (ROW) would be 50 feet wide. This draft supplement to the final EIS examines specific route changes and realignments and the reauthorization of a 25-foot temporary-use area for the temporary stockpiling of spoil and topsoil during digging. Under consideration are 13 realignments to avoid steep slope construction, side slope construction, or difficult construction related to drainages; another ten route changes are proposed in response to construction feasibility and landowner concerns. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The pipeline would transport up to 300 million cubic feet of gas per day, providing cheap power to residential and commercial users in southern California and the Midwest. Demand for foreign sources of power in these regions would decline. The three main- line construction spreads would employ an average of 480 workers each, with a maximum of 550 employees during peak construction, which would last 10 weeks. In total, approximately 1,440 workers would be employed at any one time during construction. System operations would employ 20 persons and result in increases in local property tax bases. The route changes would reduce impacts to soil erosion and water resources, including 3.1 acres of wetlands. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The development of pipeline ROW and compressor and meter stations under the applicant's proposal would result in the disturbance of 2,802 acres, including 900 acres of forest, while the federally preferred alternative would result in the disturbance of 2,865 acres, including 745 acres of forest. Soils, archaeological resources, and visual resources would be degraded as a result of ROW disturbance. Crop production would be decreased on 80 acres of prime farmland and 111 acres of farmland of statewide importance. Five river crossings, five major streams, and 19 minor perennial streams would be involved during construction, and 36 acres would be disturbed within the Palisade municipal watershed. Construction activities would result in the short-term degradation of local air quality and the emission of noise. The establishment of temporary use areas would disturb 366 acres throughout the length of the pipeline.

Preparation date: January 16, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - OREGON CAVES NATIONAL MONUMENT, JOSEPHINE COUNTY, OREGON. AN - 36400647; 6731 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan for development and visitor use of the Oregon Caves National Monument, located in southern Oregon, is proposed. The 484-acre monument is located within the Siskiyou National Forest, seven miles north of the California-Oregon border and 40 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. The monument was established in July 1909 in order to preserve the network of natural caves in the area as well as the old-growth forest and natural processes within the watershed of the caves. The caves are significant because they are situated on a volcanically sea mount and contain a significant collection of Pleistocene-aged fossils. The cave ecosystem supports numerous plants and animals, including the threatened Townsend's big-eared bat and several cave-adapted insects endemic to the monument. Focal issues addressed include protection of cave and water resources, endangered species protection, recreation and public uses, adequacy of the existing boundary, management of surface trails, fire control within the surrounding forest, interpretation, and scenic quality, Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative C) would seek to enhance visitor experiences and the protection of monument resources. Cave tours would be operated with National Park Service interpretive rangers, and a cave tour reservation system would be established and based at the Illinois Valley Visitor Center, which would continue to serve as a key point for initial visitor contact and information. Approximately 3,310 acres of national forest land would be transferred to the monument in order to enhance protection of the Lake Creek and upper Cave Creek watersheds, the public water supply, and foreground and middleground viewsheds. Hiking and other recreational opportunities would be provided. The cave would be open to the public from mid-March to early December. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preservation of the unique geological and archaeological features of the monument would be balanced with visitors' enjoyment and learning opportunities. The preferred alternative would provide diverse opportunities for visitors, and the anticipated increase in tourist visits would benefit the local economy, supporting 230 new jobs. Elimination of logging and grazing on the upper watershed areas transferred to the Monument would improve water quality by reducing sedimentation and surface runoff. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The increased recreational use would increase the potential of wildlife, geologic, and archaeological site disturbance.

Preparation date: January 9, 1998 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NORTHERN INTERTIE PROJECT (TRANSMISSION LINE), HEALY TO FAIRBANKS, ALASKA. AN - 36410336; 6727 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation by the Golden Valley Electric Association of a 230-kilovolt (230-kV) transmission line between Healy and Fairbanks, located in southern and central Alaska, is proposed. The project would also involve modifying the existing Healy substation and constructing a substation (Wilson) and a 40-megawatt battery storage system near Van Horn Road and South Cushman Street. The transmission line would cross federal lands that have been withdrawn for military purposes. The existing transmission line is operating at or near capacity to meet current demands, and those demands are expected to increase by 55 percent in the next four years. Healy currently has three power sources: the power delivered from the Bradley Lake hydroelectric plant and the gas-fired Anchorage generation units to the Healy intertie; the Healy clean coal project; and the applicant's Healy generation facility. If the intertie between Anchorage and Healy were to fail, 70 megawatts of power would not be delivered to Healy, and, in turn, Fairbanks. If the intertie between Healy and Fairbanks were to fail, all three Healy power sources would be isolated and power could not be delivered to Fairbanks. Furthermore, the generation facilities in and around Healy supply energy which is produced at a lower cost than the energy produced from the oil-fired units in Fairbanks. The applicant has contracts to purchase a set of amount of energy whether they use it or not. Eight alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative would extend 105 miles from the Healy power plant northwest, generally running between Chicken Creek and Windy Creek, past the eastern boundary of the Clear Air Station. It then turns to the east south of the Tanana River and runs parallel to the river until it crosses at Goose Island into south Fairbanks to the proposed Wilson substation. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would enable the applicant to meet current and project energy demands; increase the reliability and capacity of the entire transmission system in southern and central Alaska; furnish access to the economy energy market; provide access to long-term purchases and sales; and diversify fuel resources used to generate electrical power. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preferred route would cross 401 acres of forested wetlands, 33 acres of riverine wetlands, 134 acres of floating bogs, three streams with anadromous fish, and four acres of lakes and ponds. The project would result in adverse, direct, and long-term visual impacts from scenic roads and highways. Wildlife would be adversely affected through the removal of vegetation and the construction of transmission towers. Habitat of brown bear, black bear, caribou, and moose would be adversely affected. Up to 25 historic and other cultural resources occur within one mile of the preferred alternative route.

AN - 62547725; ED420487 AB - These American Indian standards for mathematics were developed by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) for use by classroom teachers of American Indian students. They have been closely aligned with the 1989 "Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics," national standards currently in use in many BIA-funded schools. Each standard describes what mathematics should be included in the curriculum and possible student activities associated with that mathematics. Like the national standards, the American Indian standards are organized into grade level groupings of K-4, 5-8, and 9-12. The first four standards for each grade grouping cover problem solving, communication, reasoning, and mathematical connections. Other K-4 standards cover estimation, number sense and numeration, concepts of whole number operations, whole number computation, geometry and spatial sense, measurement, statistics and probability, fractions and decimals, and patterns and relationships. Other 5-8 standards cover number and number relationships, number systems and theory, computation and estimation, patterns and functions, algebra, statistics, probability, geometry, and measurement. Other 9-12 standards cover algebra, functions, geometry from synthetic and algebraic perspectives, and statistics. This document may also be used by American Indian nations as a guideline for developing tribally specific local standards.

To be effective, these agencies have established common terms and definitions, as well as a method for evaluating the condition of these areas, which has been extensively reviewed and tested. This method involves assessing whether an area is in proper functioning condition (see BLM's TR 1737-9). The method for assessing PFC is a qualitative, yet science-based process that considers both abiotic and biotic factors as they relate to physical function. It facilitates communication about the condition of a riparian-wetland area and focuses attention on the physical process before considering values. A standard checklist is used to ensure consistency in reporting the condition of riparian-wetland areas. The PFC method is straightforward: review existing documents, analyze the PFC definition, and assess functionality using the checklist. The assessment requires the use of an ID team. To assess the condition of a riparian-wetland area, an ID team has to understand its capability and potential and identify the attributes and processes that transpire. If an ID team does not spend the time to develop this understanding, their judgement about PFC will be incomplete and may be incorrect. Riparian-wetland areas are rated in four categories: proper functioning condition, functional--at risk, nonfunctional, and unknown. The condition of some riparian-wetland areas will be relatively easy to discern, while the condition of others will be less evident. Occasionally, items on the checklist will have to be quantified to determine how they should be answered. There are numerous ways these items can be quantified, including those summarized in this document. For areas that are functional--at risk, trend should be identified, as it is a key consideration in interpreting data. At-risk areas with a downward trend are often the highest management priority because a decline in resource values is apparent. Yet these areas often retain much of the resiliency associated with a functioning area. There is usually an opportunity to reverse this trend through changes in management. At-risk areas with an upward trend are often a priority for monitoring efforts. Monitoring these areas assures that they continue to improve. Conversely, trend is not determined for areas that are nonfunctional. While these areas could theoretically still be in decline, most of the riparian values have already been lost. The presence of sufficient riparian-wetland attributes and processes to warrant a determination of trend usually results in a rating of functional--at risk. It is common for an area in PFC to continue to have an upward trend. Many sites that are properly functioning must continue to improve to meet site-specific objectives. However a downward trend may put the area at-risk. Once proper functioning condition is reached, trend relates to specific objectives. The lack of specific information will place many riparian-wetland areas into the category of unknown. It is imperative that areas for which no data exists be evaluated and added to the data base. As information is acquired and resource values are identified, best management practices need to be set in motion. Successful management strategies have to address the entire watershed, as upland and riparian-wetland areas are interrelated and cannot be considered separately. To manage riparian-wetland areas successfully requires a state of resiliency that allows an area to hold together during frequent high-flow events. When a riparian-wetland area's physical aspects are in working order, then channel characteristics are maintained that sustain the area's ability to produce values. Function comes first, then values (desired condition). Managing riparian-wetland areas does not cease once PFC is achieved--it has just started. Existing and potential resource values and the plant communities necessary to support these values have to be identified. Once these values have been identified, then specific objectives can be derived to ascertain desired condition. Management actions to achieve desired condition can then be designed and set in place.

Of primary concern was the rebuilding of sand deposits along the channel sides that are important to the flora and fauna along the river corridor and that provide the only camp sites for riverside visitors of the Grand Canyon National Park. Analysis of the depositional processes with a model of flow, sand transport, and bed evolution shows that the sand deposits formed along the channel sides early during the high flow were affected only slightly by the decline in suspended-sand concentrations over the course of the controlled flood. Modeling results suggest that the removal of a large sand deposit over several hours was not a response to declining suspended-sand concentrations. Comparisons of the controlled-flood deposits with deposits formed during a flood in January 1993 on the Little Colorado River that contributed sufficient sand to raise the suspended-sand concentrations to predam levels in the main stem show that the depositional pattern as well as the magnitude is strongly influenced by the suspended- sand concentrations.

Final Report AN - 18165321; 4466437 AB - The Jackson Lake Archeological Project began in 1983 when the reservoir at Jackson Lake was lowered to facilitate repair of the dam. The intentional lowering of the reservoir, combined with a drought in 1987 and 1988, caused the lake to reach pre-reservoir levels. A pedestrian inventory of the area under the Jackson Lake pool recorded 109 archeological sites ranging in date from Paleoindian to historic Euroamerican times; inventory and site-testing data are available in five other volumes. This report synthesizes these data with available regional data to better understand human adaptation in the intermountain area. Topics addressed here include theoretical aspects of mountain adaptations; biases inherent in, as well as potential for, using data from inundated sites; culture history, settlement and subsistence in Jackson Hole.

This work was done to estimate the age (time elapsed since recharge) of water issuing from springs at the hatchery. CFC-dating suggests that groundwater several hundred feet below land surface in the Underwood Heights area north of the hatchery, including groundwater discharging from the hatchery springs, contains at least a component of modern (post-1944) water. By contrast, CFC-dating suggests that deeper groundwater such as that withdrawn from the hatchery well contains little or no modern water. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 31 p. 1998.

In 1990, an average of 170 million gallons per day was withdrawn from the aquifer in 12 northeast Louisiana parishes. Additional knowledge about ground-water flow and the effects of withdrawals on the Mississippi River alluvial aquifer is needed for future ground-water development and protection of the resource. Generalized contours of the altitude of water levels in September 1990 and changes of water levels from 1974 to 1990 in the Mississippi River alluvial aquifer in northeastern Louisiana are shown on maps. Water-level trands in the aquifer are shown in hydrographs of selected wells.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-03-24 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Distribution and movement of saltwater in aquifers and an evaluation of the chloride monitoring network in the Baton Rouge area, Louisiana, 1990-92 AN - 16258021; 4241195 AB - Saltwater encroachment has been detected in the "1,000-foot," "1,500-foot," and "2,000-foot" sands underlying the Baton Rouge area. Saltwater has encroached in response to pumping primarily by industry and public supply. Large withdrawals induce northward leakage of saltwater across the Baton Rouge fault and northward encroachment into freshwater areas. Although areas containing saltwater also exist in the "600-foot," "1,200-foot," and "2,800-foot" sands, no saltwater movement (further encroachment) was detected in 1992. The "1,500-foot" sand, an important public-supply source, contains saltwater at the base of the aquifer north of the fault in an area of about 1.5 square miles. In 1992 saltwater was estimated to be about 1,600 feet from the nearest pumping station (Government) and was estimated to arrive at the station in about 5 years. Public- supply wells at the Lafayette and Convention stations pumped from a second aquifer, the "2,000-foot" sand, which has been affected (1992) by saltwater encroachment. Water from three public-supply wells had concentrations of chloride above background levels (10 milligrams per liter). The "2,000-foot" sand supplied about 39 million gallons per day (1990). Saltwater encroachment north of the affected pumping stations was not detected. The affected stations may intercept and discharge the encroaching saltwater. If pumping from these stations is discontinued as chloride concentrations increase and no physical barriers to movement exist, saltwater probably will advance toward the heavily pumped industrial district at a rate of about 2 feet per day and could arrive near the southern edge of the industrial district about 8 years after stations are discontinued.

Water-chemistry information for water samples collected from 4,839 combined private and public-supply wells from 1900 to 1993 was used to calculate the LSIsn. Thirty-eight lithologic subgroups within four major rock types- carbonate, siliciclastic, crystalline and unconsolidated-in Pennsylvania were grouped together if the mean of ranked LSIsn values were not significantly different. A water is considered corrosive if the LSIsn value is negative, preventing the precipitation of calcium carbonate, therefore, allowing corrosive reactions with the interior of piping systems. Statistical tests of the LSIsn values show the least corrosive waters are in the carbonate lithologic subgroup and the most corrosive waters are in the quartzite lithologic subgroup. Approximately 58 percent of the 4,839 LSIsn values were considered moderately to extremely corrosive. A map showing the location of 4,839 wells and associated corrosivity range within 11 lithologic subgroups will aid in identifying potential areas of corrosive ground water in Pennsylvania.

Channel-stability assessments were conducted at 876 State highway, U.S. highway, and Interstate highway bridges over waterways in the State of Maryland. Conventional data-collection techniques were used in the field to collect bridge and stream-channel data for each bridge. A potential-scour index and an observed-scour index were developed by assigning numerical-index values to specific diagnostic characteristics of the bridge and stream channel. Potential-scour ratings and observed-scour ratings for assessed bridges were obtained by summing numerical-index values that were assigned to each diagnostic characteristic in the potential-scour index and the observed-scour index.

A water-level map was constructed from water levels measured in 197 wells and at 156 stream sites in the basin. Water levels in six observation wells were evaluated for seasonal fluctuations. The horizontal hydraulic conductivity of the unconfined aquifer ranges from 20 to 130 feet per day. Mean annual discharge at three streamflow-gaging stations in the Mullica River Basin during 1928-91 was 106 cubic feet per second; annual base flow at these three stations during 1928-91 ranged from 34 to 149 cubic feet per second. Mean discharge and base flow at 17 low-flow partial-record sites were determined by means of low-flow-correlation analyses. Mean annual precipitation in the study area, measured at 3 weather stations, was 45 inches during 1927-91. Annual potential evapotranspiration is estimated to be 28 inches. Twenty-five ground- and 14 surface-water-sampling sites were selected for water-quality analysis. The predominant cation in the ground and surface water is sodium; the predominant anion in the surface water is chloride and the predominant anions in the ground water are chloride and sulfate. Total consumptive water use in the study area is estimated to be more than 3,300 million gallons per year: 526 million gallons for public and private domestic water supply, 2,768 million gallons for for irrigation and 18 million gallons for industry and mining.

Withdrawals from the aquifer increased from 4.7 Mgal/d (million gallons per day) in 1965 to 13.3 Mgal/d in 1990. A map of the potentiometric surface indicates that the altitudes of water levels in the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer ranged from less than 100 feet to 300 feet above sea level in November and December 1991. The direction of ground-water flow within the aquifer generally is to the southeast and east or west to the Red River Valley.

Withdrawals from the Gonzales-New Orleans aquifer in Jefferson and Orleans Parishes totaled about 33 million gallons per day in 1990, most of which was used for power generation and industrial purposes. Ground- water flow in the Gonzales-New Orleans aquifer within the study area is toward the center of a cone of depression in the potentiometric surface located just northeast of downtown New Orleans. The cone of depression has formed due to large withdrawals from the aquifer. During the spring of 1993, the altitude of water levels in the Gonzales-New Orleans aquifer within the study area ranged from about 100 feet below sea level in Orleans Parish, to about 11 feet below sea level in St. John the Baptist Parish. Water-level changes in the aquifer during the period 1987-93 ranged from little or no change in some areas, to a recovery of more than 15 feet in eastern Jefferson and western Orleans Parishes near Lake Pontchartrain. Water-level changes within the Gonzales-New Orleans aquifer are primarily related to changes in pumping.

The Alsea Bay scour monitoring site was established to test new bridge-scour monitoring equipment, whereas the eight additional sites were established to monitor scour-hole elevations around piers and footings. These data were collected in cooperation with the Oregon Department of Transportation. Sonar depth sounders, scour chains, and scour detection arrays were tested during this study; however; all of the bridge-scour data collected were from sonar scour-monitoring devices. Scour was observed at three sites during the period while the nine scour-monitoring sites were in operation. Work on the project is continuing, and includes testing of new scour-monitoring devices in addition to bridge-scour data collection. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 19 p. 1998.

The maps show areas where ground-water withdrawals are large relative to ground-water contributions for a given base- flow-recurrence interval. The maps were developed by estimating the annual base-flow contribution for each geologic unit in the Neshaminy Creek Basin for a specific recurrence interval, plotting the ground-water withdrawals and normalizing and contouring the difference between the two quantities in million gallons per day per square mile by the use of a moving-grid method.

Phase one, conducted in April-May 1994 during the high-flow irrigation season, consisted of a 6-week time-series sampling event during which 17 water-column samples were collected at 3 main-stem sites on the Rio Grande and a synoptic irrigation-run sampling event during which 19 water-column samples were collected at 7 main-stem sites, 10 drain sites, and 2 sites at the discharges of wastewater-treatment plants. Three samples are included in both the time-series and irrigation-run events. Phase two, conducted in January 1995 during the low-flow non-irrigation season, consisted of a non-irrigation synoptic sampling event during which 18 water-column samples were collected at seven main-stem sites, nine drain sites, and two sites at the discharges of wastewater-treatment plants and a bed-material sampling event during which 6 bed-material samples were collected at six sites near the mouths of drains that discharge to the Rio Grande. The 51 water-column samples were analyzed for 78 pesticides and metabolites and 8 nutrients along with other constituents. The six bed-material samples were analyzed for 21 pesticides and metabolites, gross polychlorinated biphenyls, and gross polychlorinated naphthalenes. During this study, the Mesilla Valley as a unit was a source of nutrients to the Rio Grande. Within the valley, the amount of nutrients discharged to the Rio Grande from nonagricultural sources probably equaled or exceeded that from agricultural sources. No nutrient concentration or constituent concentration related to nutrients failed to meet an applicable Federal or State criterion or standard. The maximum nitrite concentration at an ambient site was 0.12 milligram per liter as nitrogen and the maximum nitrite plus nitrate concentration at an ambient site was 2.3 milligrams per liter as nitrogen. The minimum dissolved-oxygen concentration at an ambient site was 6.2 milligrams per liter. The maximum calculated un-ionized ammonia concentration at an ambient site was 0.042 milligram per liter as nitrogen. The median concentration values of dissolved nitrogen and total phosphorus at main-stem sites for the irrigation and non-irrigation runs are in the eutrophic range of most trophic classification systems. In particular, total phosphorus concentrations in 12 ambient-site samples exceeded the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recommended concentration to control eutrophication in streams and other flowing waters not discharging directly to lakes or impoundments.

Surface-water-quality data for nutrients and suspended sediment were screened to provide information about sites with adequate numbers of analyses (50) over sufficiently long periods (1980-1990) to enable valid statistical analyses. Ground water nutrient and pesticide data were compiled from several federal and state agencies. Urban sites with relatively high population densities and highest concentrations of dischargers were characterized by having the highest nutrient concentrations and loads when adjusted for differences in drainage area or population. In ground water, nitrate concentrations have occasionally been determined which exceed the safe drinking water standard of 10 mg/L as nitrogen. Trend analysis for selected surface-water-quality stations revealed that flow-adjusted concentrations of total and dissolved phosphorus generally declined during the period of analysis, while total nitrogen did not change significantly. The absence of sufficient data from more or less exclusively agricultural areas points to the need for further study of the impacts of farming on surface water quality. More than 200 surface-water sites and fewer than 500 wells have been identified which have pesticide data. EDB, a soil fumigant used in tobacco farming, has been found in wells in north-central Connecticut and in Massachusetts. Atrazine, commonly used in corn farming, has often been found in wells in tilled agricultural fields. Public-supply wells in Connecticut have rarely been found to have detectable levels of pesticides. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 162 p. 1998.

These data were used to define the hydrogeologic setting of a field site representative of the intensively farmed carbonate valleys of southeastern and south-central Pennsylvania. The environmental processing of commonly used pesticides (herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides) in the unsaturated zone was simulated with a process-oriented digital model to evaluate the environmental fate and transport of pesticides to ground water. Site data and modelling results provide a basis for a discussion of water-quality implications of agricultural best-management practices. The carbonate valleys of Pennsylvania comprise regolith-mantled carbonate-rock terrains that consist of broad undulating upland areas dissected by mostly dry valleys and widely spaced spring-fed creeks. The upland areas are farmed and exhibit possess a doline karst topography with many closed depressions, sinkholes, and bedrock outcrops. Unsaturated materials at the field site consist of an almost continuous soil cover composed of fine-grained residuum underlain by an intermediate vadose zone composed of karstified limestone. Soils are absent on scattered bedrock outcrops and are more than 12 meters thick in other areas of the site. The soil profile stores appreciable quantities of water with a volumetric average of about 36 percent water at field capacity. Atrazine, metolachlor, simazine, and the atrazine soil metabolites deethylatrazine and deisopropylatrazine were detected at concentrations above 0.05 mg/L in just the upper 0.6 meters of soil materials. However, detectable concentrations of atrazine, simazine, and atrazine soil metabolites were measured in water samples from lysimeters installed in soil materials at depths of 1.2, 2.1, and 3.7 meters and from monitor wells completed in the saturated zone to depths of 122 meters. Data collected from the field site were used to configure a pesticide screening model based on the pesticide version of the leaching estimation and chemistry model (LEACHP) developed by Wagenet and Hutson (1987). Model simulations show that most field-applied pesticides volatilize to the atmosphere, accumulate in soils, degrade in the subsurface environment, or leach to ground water. Model results were used to rank the leaching potentials of 66 pesticides. Eighteen of 32 herbicides, 4 of 9 fungicides, and 10 of 25 insecticides have moderate to large potential for leaching to ground water. A review of available pesticide monitoring data suggests that many compounds given moderate or high leaching potentials have not been tested for in ground water and the presence of pesticides in Pennsylvania's ground water may be under-reported. Monitoring data do not exist for more than two-thirds of the pesticide compounds currently used in agricultural, carbonate areas of Pennsylvania. Knowledge of processes that govern fate and transport of pesticides is needed to facilitate development of effective pesticide best-management practices. In addition to comprehensive monitoring for pesticides and pesticide degradation products in ground water downgradient of areas of pesticide use, improved (1) characterization of unsaturated flow and transport through regolith mantled carbonate rocks, (2) estimates of pesticide degradation rates, (3) understanding of soil-property controls on pesticide movement, and (4) management models developed from process-oriented research would aid in understanding the processes.

These rocks form a complex, heterogeneous, leaky, multiaquifer system comprised of a series of gently dipping lithologic units with different hydraulic properties. Ground water is unconfined in the shallower part of the aquifer and confined or semiconfined in the deeper part of the aquifer. Water levels measured in monitor well clusters and borehole-flow measurements made in open boreholes show a downward hydraulic head gradient at the site, caused in part by the pumping of nearby, deep public-supply wells and the Fischer and Porter treatment system extraction wells. Downward borehole flow was measured at rates up to 9 gallons per minute. Aquifer-isolation tests were run in the six boreholes to obtain depth-discrete specific-capacity and water-quality data. On the basis of specific-capacity data for 27 isolated intervals, specific capacity is not related to depth. Water levels in monitor wells at the Fischer and Porter Site are greatly affected by the pumping of nearby public-supply wells, as well as the pumping of the Fischer and Porter treatment system extraction wells. Pumping of the public-supply wells causes daily water-level fluctuations in wells at the site as great as 5.3 feet. The shutdown of the Fischer and Porter treatment system extraction wells caused a rise in water level in all wells screened in the intermediate and deep zones. The rise in water level was as great as 4.3 feet in the intermediate zone and as great as 5.9 feet in the deep zone. The direction of groundwater flow is toward the north in the shallow and intermediate zones and toward the west and west-southwest in the deep zone. Groundwater discharge probably is to the unnamed tributary to Pennypack Creek north and west of the site. Volatile organic compounds (VOC's) were detected in most depth-discrete water samples. No general trend of increasing or decreasing concentrations of VOC's with depth were observed, and none of the isolated intervals had highly elevated concentrations of VOC's. Observed fairly constant concentrations of VOC's with depth are the result of the downward head gradient and the former presence of open boreholes on the site. The downward head gradient and pumping of nearby, deep public-supply wells caused the vertical migration and outward movement of VOC's into the aquifer through former supply and monitor wells of open-hole construction in the main area of contamination.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-03-24 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Overview of Water Resources in and near Indian Lands Inn Northeastern Kansas and Southeastern Nebraska AN - 16254818; 4241193 AB - An overview of water resources is provided for a 4,005-square-mile area of northeastern Kansas and southeastern Nebraska that includes the treaty lands for the Iowa Tribe of Kansas and Nebraska, the Kickapoo Tribe of Kansas, the Prairie Band of Potawatomi and the Sac and Fox Tribe of Missouri. The only plentiful supplies of surface water are available from the Missouri and Kansas Rivers. The smallest mean streamflows for 4 consecutive months occur in November through February for most streams in the area. The smallest flows for 7 consecutive days in a year occur most often in August, September, or October. The typical seasonal distribution of streamflows indicates a pattern favorable for the same-year use of small surface-water impoundments for low-flow augmentation; large flows that could be impounded typically occur in the month shortly before augmentation is most needed. However, droughts of 2 or more consecutive years are common and would largely negate the advantage of using small impoundments except for very small water-supply needs. Alluvial deposits along the Kansas and Missouri Rivers provide the largest well yields in the study area, but these deposits are limited in areal extent. The Kansas River alluvium reaches a maximum saturated thickness of about 70 feet and the Missouri River alluvium reaches a maximum thickness of 120 feet. Well yields in the Kansas River generally range from 300 to 1,000 gallons per minute (gal/min) but may be as large as 2,500 gal/min. Well yields in the Missouri River alluvium generally range from 150 to 2,500 gal/min but may be as large as 3,000 gal/min. Although generally capable only of small sustained yields to wells, minor aquifers are important because they are available throughout most of the study area. Within the thick, mostly fine-grained glacial deposits, isolated sand and gravel layers may yield adequate supplies for stock-watering or domestic use. Sodium concentrations exceed the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (USEPA) Secondary Maximum Contaminant Level of 20 milligrams per liter most often in the middle Kansas and Delaware Basins. Total iron and manganese concentrations in water generally exceed the USEPA Secondary Maximum Contaminant Levels of 50 micrograms per liter for iron and 300 micrograms per liter for manganese. Atrazine concentrations in surface water, primarily from post- application runoff, commonly exceed the USEPA Maximum Contaminant Level of 3.0 micrograms per liter during the months of May, June and July. Most of the erosion and about one-half of the total sediment yield in parts of the study area may result from sheet and rill erosion and gullying on cultivated cropland. A total of 3.13 million gallons per day (Mgal/d) of water was used in 1990 in the Big Nemaha River Basin, 74 percent of which was derived from ground water. In the Wolf River Basin, 1.29 Mgal/d were used, 71 percent derived from ground water. The Middle Kansas River Basin had the highest water use, 83.01 Mgal/d, 67 percent of which was from surface water. A total of 4.37 Mgal/d was used in the Delaware River Basin, 55 percent from ground water.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-03-24 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Instream investigations in the Beaver Creek watershed in West Tennessee, 1991-95 AN - 16254772; 4237610 AB - The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Tennessee Department of Agriculture, began a long-term scientific investigation in 1989 to evaluate the effect of agricultural activities on water quality and the effectiveness of agricultural best management practices in the Beaver Creek watershed, West Tennessee. In 1993 as a part of this study, the USGS, in cooperation with the Natural Resources Conservation Service, Shelby County Soil Conservation District, and the Tennessee Soybean Promotion Board, began an evaluation of the physical, chemical, biological and hydrological factors that affect water quality in streams and wetlands, and instream resource-management systems to treat agricultural nonpoint-source runoff and improve water quality. The purpose of this report is to present the results of three studies of stream and wetland investigations and a study on the transport of aldicarb from an agricultural field in the Beaver Creek watershed. A natural bottomland hardwood wetland and an artificially constructed wetland were evaluated as instream resource-management systems. These two studies showed that wetlands are an effective way to improve the quality of agricultural nonpoint-source runoff. The wetlands reduced concentrations and loads of suspended sediments, nutrients, and pesticides in the streams. A third paper documents the influence of riparian vegetation on the biological structure and water quality of a small stream draining an agricultural field. A comparison of the upper reach lined with herbaceous plants and the lower reach with mature woody vegetation showed a more stable biological community structure and Water-quality characteristics in the woody reach than in the herbaceous reach. The water-quality characteristics monitored were pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, and specific conductance. The herbaceous reach had a greater diversity and abundance of organisms during spring and early summer, but the abundance dropped by approximately 85 percent during late summer. A fourth study describes the transport of aldicarb and its metabolites-aldicarb sulfoxide and aldicarb sulfone-in runoff at a small stream draining a cotton field. During 1991 to 1995, aldicarb and its metabolites were detected in runoff events. The highest concentrations occurred when aldicarb was applied to the field just hours before a rain storm. Aldicarb was not detectable in runoff a few weeks after application. The metabolites of aldicarb were detectable for 76 days after application. These studies demonstrate streambank vegetation and wetlands have a significant influence on stream water quality. The importance of weather conditions to herbicide application and runoff also is evident. This information can be used by resource managers to sustain and improve our Nation's streams for future generations. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 34 p. 1998.

Bottom material samples were collected and analyzed to determine concentrations of the following 10 trace elements: antimony, arsenic, chromium, cobalt, copper, lead, mercury, nickel, selenium and zinc. The minimum and maximum concentrations, in milligrams per kilogram, of each trace element and the stream in which they were detected are as follows: Antimony, less than 0.1 (Pearl River) and 1.0 (Bayou Lafourche); arsenic, 0.3 (Tickfaw River) and 16.0 (Bayou Lafourche); chromium, 1.0 (Tickfaw and Pearl Rivers) and 71.0 (Bayou Lafourche); cobalt, 2.0 (Tickfaw and Pearl Rivers) and 15.0 (Bayou Lafourche); copper, less than 1.0 (Pearl River) and 53.0 (Bayou Lafourche); lead, less than 1.0 (Sabine River) and 67.0 (Calcasieu River); mercury, less than 0.01 (Pearl River) and 0.47 (Calcasieu River); nickel, less than 1.0 (Sabine River) and 38.0 (Bayou Lafourche); selenium, less than 0.1 (Pearl and Sabine Rivers) and 0.9 (Bayou Lafourche); and zinc, 1.0 (Tickfaw River) and 208.0 (Bayou Lafourche). In addition, the bottom material samples were analyzed to determine physical and chemical properties that affect trace-element concentrations: grain size, surface area, organic matter and iron and manganese oxide coatings. Mean grain size typically decreased and organic matter increased in a downstream direction. Each site, however, had a unique set of physical and chemical factors affecting the distribution of trace elements.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-03-24 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Transport of agricultural chemicals in surface flow, tileflow, and streamflow of Walnut Creek watershed near Ames, Iowa, April 1991-September 1993 AN - 16253991; 4237612 AB - The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the National Soil Tilth Laboratory of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, conducted a study as part of the multi-scale, interagency Management Systems Evaluation Area (MSEA) program to evaluate the effects of agricultural management (farming) systems on water quality. Data on surface flow, tileflow, and streamflow in the Walnut Creek watershed just south of Ames, Iowa, were collected during April 1991-September 1993 at five sites with drainage areas ranging from 366 to 5,130 hectares. Precipitation, flow discharge, and concentration, loads, and yields of nitrate as nitrogen, atrazine, and metolachlor were analyzed to relate the transport of agricultural chemicals to major water-flow processes and to examine and transport differences among three subwatersheds. Antecedent conditions and basin-characteristic differences had significant effects on the flow response from the subwatersheds. Monthly streamflow-to-precipitation ratios were greater than 1.0, as a result of snowmelt, and negative when streamflow was lost to the ground-water system in the downstream subwatershed. Dry antecedent conditions resulted in ratios less than 0.3 (July 1992), whereas wet antecedent conditions resulted in ratios from 0.7 to almost 1.0 (July 1993) during months with similar large rainfall amounts. Most of the streamflow from the upland subwatersheds came from tileflow. Surface flow (surface runoff, interflow, and return flow0 was highly variable and intermittent, usually lasting for only a few days after a storm, although it could be the dominant source of flow when stormflow was large. Tileflow was less variable and much more persistent, ceasing only after prolonged dry periods. Large quantities of nitrate as nitrogen were transported in Walnut Creek, with concentrations often greater than the Maximum Contaminant Level of 10 milligrams per liter established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for finished drinking water. In the upland subwatersheds, groundwater flow from the tiles appears to have been the primary means of transport to the streams. Concentrations of atrazine and metolachlor in streamflow, typically, were less than the Maximum Contaminant Level of 3.0 micrograms per liter, but were as high as 59 and 80 micrograms per liter, respectively, during stormflow. Concentrations as high as 170 micrograms per liter occurred in tileflow, but these were related to surface flow through surface inlets. The transport of herbicides was extremely variable, with most of the loads occurring during stormflow. Atrazine appeared more susceptible to transport losses to streamflow than did metolachlor. Loss ratios for streamflow from the subwatersheds for April-September periods were 0.3 to 20 percent for atrazine and 0.1 to 2.9 percent for metolachlor. Chemical loss ratios indicated differences in the transport characteristics of the three subwatersheds. The downstream subwatershed, which has steeper terrain, a more-developed natural drainage system, and fewer tiles than the two upland subwatersheds, had the largest loss rates for all three chemicals - 206 percent for nitrate as nitrogen (October 1992-September 1993) and 20 percent for atrazine and 2.9 percent for metolachlor (April-September 1993). For May-July 1993, when most of the herbicides were transported, the downstream subwatershed also had the largest cumulative unit discharge and the largest streamflow-to-precipitation ratios.

There are two Urban Land-Use Study objectives: (1) Define the water quality in recharge areas of shallow aquifers underlying areas of new residential and commercial land use in large metropolitan areas, and (2) determine which natural and human factors most strongly affect the occurrence of contaminants in these shallow aquifers. To meet objective 1, each NAWQA Study Unit will install and collect water samples from at least 30 randomly located monitoring wells in a metropolitan area. To meet objective 2, aquifer characteristics and land-use information will be documented. This includes particle-size analysis of each major lithologic unit both in the unsaturated zone and in the aquifer near the water table. The percentage of organic carbon also will be determined for each lithologic unit. Geographic information system coverages will be created that document existing land use around the wells. These data will aid NAWQA personnel in relating natural and human factors to the occurrence of contaminants. Water samples for age dating also will be collected from all monitoring wells, but the samples will be stored until the occurrence of contaminants has been determined.

This report characterizes a 0.63-square-mile agricultural watershed underlain by shale, mudstone, and red arkosic sandstone in the Lower Susquehanna River Basin. The water quality of the Brush Run Creek site was studied from October 1985 through September 1991, prior to and during the implementation of nutrient management designed to reduce sediment and nutrient discharges into Conewago Creek, a tributary to the Chesapeake Bay. The original study area was 0.38 square mile and included an area immediately upstream from a manure lagoon. The study area was increased to 0.63 square mile in the fall of 1987 after an extensive tile-drain network was discovered upstream and downstream from the established streamflow gage, and the farm owner made plans to spray irrigate manure to the downstream fields. Significant reductions in total phosphorus and suspended-sediment concentrations occurred at the water-quality gage. The maximum concentrations of total phosphorus (160 mg/L) and suspended sediment (3,530 mg/L) were measured at a tile line above the water quality gage. Concentrations of total nitrogen, dissolved ammonia, and total phosphorus in base flow increased during dry periods when discharges from the tile drain were not diluted. During nutrient management, only base-flow loads of suspended sediment increased. Total streamflow was about 121.8 inches. About 81 percent was storm runoff. Loads of total nitrogen, total phosphorus in stormflow, and suspended sediment increased 14, 44, and 41 percent during nutrient management, respectively. A load of about 787,780 pounds of sediment, 22,418 pounds of nitrogen, and 5,479 pounds of phosphorus was measured during 214 sampled stormflow days that represented 84 percent of the stormflow. About 812,924 pounds of sediment, 38,421 pounds of nitrogen, and 6,377 pounds of phosphorus were discharged during the 6-year study. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 80 p. 1998.

At the minimum lake elevation of 4,137 feet, 89 percent of the lake is affected. Winds of 10 miles per hour or greater from the northwest can create a bottom shear stress great enough to resuspend bed sediment in Upper Klamath Lake. Winds of this speed occurred for more than 1 hour on 101 days out of 153 days from May to October 1991 at a weather station located at Agency Lake. At a wind speed of 10 miles per hour from the northwest, on Upper Klamath Lake, mean bottom shear stress is approximately four times greater for a lake elevation of 4,137 feet than for a lake elevation of 4,140 feet. Using relations developed between shear stress and resuspension rates for other lake studies as a guide, resuspension rates will be more than an order of magnitude greater for the lower lake elevation. In Upper Klamath Lake, resuspension of bottom sediment may be a major source of the internal phosphorus loading. It is estimated that the contributing phosphorous load sorbed on suspended sediment resuspended from a single wind episode occurring October 26-27, 1991 ranged from 330-1,800 tons with a median of 780 tons. Need for further study is indicated by our inability to predict (1) overall phosphorous-loading conditions, (2) the contribution of phosphorous load from the release of interstitial water in the lake bed sediment during resuspension, and (3) a more narrow range in calculation of phosphorous loading for single wind episodes.

Sampling protocol at seven selected sites at more than 2,500 meters above sea level divided the snowpack into two distinct strata to enable separate chemical analyses of upper and lower layers of the annual snow cover. These two layers correspond to the early snow season beginning in September until December 12, 1994, and the remainder of the season from January 1 until the sampling date in spring 1995. At one site these two strata were resampled at closely spaced intervals defining substrata to observe variance within the two strata dividing the snow season. Analytical results of snowpack chemistry are presented in support of investigations of seasonal effects on ion concentrations in the snowpack. Chemical concentrations of major anions and cations, dissolved organic carbon, and alkalinity; measured pH; calculated charge balance between anions and cations; the stable-sulfur isotope ratio (34S /32S); and summary statistics of chemical concentrations are tabulated. Sampling sites are plotted on a map of the area. Spatial distributions of the concentrations of the hydrogen, nitrate, and sulfate ions and stable-sulfur isotope ratios also are mapped. Several unusual, late-season, snowfall events occurred during April and May of 1995 after the snowpack was sampled at most of the seven sites in the study area. Consequently, a considerable fraction of the total annual snowpack was not sampled. At one site, the full snowpack was sampled again in June, after the late-spring storms, for comparison to the chemistry of the snowpack sampled earlier in April. Precipitation chemistry from a National Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP) collector located near the site is presented for comparison of the chemistry of the late-season snow to that of the typical annual snowpack season.

A U.S. Geological Survey rainfall- runoff model was calibrated using observed rainfall and streamflow data collected from March 1994 through September 1995. Standard errors for calibration were 34 percent for runoff volumes and 21 percent for peak flows. The calibrated model was used to simulate peak flows resulting from synthetic rainfall amounts of 1.0, 2.5, 5.0 and 7.5 inches in 24-hour periods. For each rainfall amount, peak flows were simulated under low-, moderate- and high-antecedent soil- moisture conditions, represented by selected 3-month periods of daily rainfall and evaporation record from nearby climatic-data measuring stations. Simulated peak flows ranged from 89 to 10,100 cubic feet per second. Profiles of water-surface elevations for selected observed and simulated peak flows were computed for the reach of Scott Creek that flows through Sylva, North Carolina. The profiles were computed using the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers HEC-2 Water Surface Profiles computer program and channel cross-section data collected by the Tennessee Valley Authority. The stage-discharge relation for Scott Creek at the simulation site has changed since the collection of the cross-section data. These changes, however, are such that the water-surface profiles presented in this report likely overestimate the true water-surface elevations at the simulation site for a given peak flow.

Over 400 drainage wells have been drilled in the county, but many are now redundant because of surface drainage systems that have been installed within the last two or three decades. Most of the drainage wells emplace water into the Upper Floridan aquifer, a zone of high transmissivity within the Floridan aquifer system. In 1992, the Orange County Stormwater Management Department identified 23 wells that were considered noncritical or redundant for current drainage control. These wells were targeted for closure to eliminate maintenance and possible contamination problems. A 3-year study (1992 through 1994) encompassed several drainage basins in the county. Inflow to 18 of the 23 drainage wells on the noncritical list and the effects of closure of these noncritical wells on the potentiometric surface of the Upper Floridan aquifer were estimated. Three sites were chosen for intensive study and were used for further extrapolation to other noncritical sites. The total average annual recharge rate through the 18 selected wells was estimated to be 9 cubic feet per second, or about 6 million gallons per day. The highest rate of long-term recharge, 4.6 cubic feet per second, was to well H-35. Several wells on the noncritical list were already plugged or had blocked intakes. Yields, or the sum of surface-water outflows and drainage-well recharge, from the drainage basins ranged from 20 to 33 inches per year. In some of the basins, all the yield from the basin was recharge through a drainage well. In other basins, most of the yield was surface outflow through canals rather than to drainage wells. The removal of the recharge from closure of the wells was simulated by superposition in a three-dimensional ground-water flow model. As a second step in the model, water was also applied to two sites in western Orange County that could receive redirected surface water. One of the sites is CONSERV II, a distribution system used to apply reclaimed water to the surficial aquifer system through rapid infiltration basins and grove irrigation. The second site, Lake Sherwood, has an extremely high downward recharge rate estimated to be at least 54 inches per year. The results from the simulations showed a decline of 1 foot or less in the potentiometric surface of the Upper Floridan aquifer with removal of the recharge and a mound of about 1 foot in the vicinity of the two sites in western Orange County. The Lake Sherwood site seems to reduce the declines caused by closure of the wells to a greater degree than the CONSERV II site, partly because the Lake Sherwood site is closer to the drainage-well basins.

The data were collected to help the Y-12 Environmental Restoration Program develop a better understanding of ground-water and surface-water interactions, recharge and discharge relations, and ground-water flow patterns. The project was divided into three phases: a reconnaissance and mapping of seeps, springs, and stream-measurment sites; a high base flow seepage investigation; and a low base flow seepage investigation. The reconnaissance was conducted from January 6 to March 1, 1994, to identify and map the locations of seeps, springs, and stream-measurement sites. A total of 701 sites were identified. They consisted of 382 stream-measurement sites, 265 seeps, 48 springs, and 6 wetlands. A global positioning system was used to locate 680 sites to within 3- to 5-meter accuracy. The high base flow seepage investigation was conducted from March 14 through March 19, 1994. Measurements were made at 579 of the 701 sites identified in the reconnaissance that still had flowing water. Flow rates ranged from less than 0.005 to 6.89 cubic feet per second for the streams, from less than 0.005 to 0.13 cubic foot per second for the seeps, and from less than 0.005 to 1 cubic foot per second for the springs. pH ranged from 5.0 to 8.4 for the streams, from 5.1 to 8.2 for the seeps, from 5.3 to 8.0 for the springs, and from 6.7 to 6.8 for the wetland sites. Specific conductance ranged from 16 to 1,670 microsiemens per centimeter for the streams, from 17 to 1,710 microsiemens per centimeter for the seeps, from 14 to 1,150 microsiemens per centimeter for the springs, and from 102 to 160 microsiemens per centimeter for the wetland sites. Temperature ranged from 4.5 to 16.0 degrees Celsius for the streams, from 5.0 to 21.0 degrees Celsius for the seeps, from 6.0 to 13.5 degrees Celsius for the springs, and from 13.0 to 19.5 degrees Celsius for the wetland sites. Dissolved oxygen ranged from 4.8 to 11.2 milligrams per liter for the streams, 1.2 to 11.3 milligrams per liter for the seeps, and from 0.6 to 11.0 milligrams per liter for the springs. Dissolved oxygen at a wetland site measured 3.8 milligrams per liter. The low base flow investigation was conducted from September 9 through September 29, 1994. The stream sites, seeps, and springs that had flow during the high base flow seepage investigation were revisited. One-hundred seventy-six of the stream sites visited still had flow. Discharge ranged from less than 0.005 to 0.76 cubic foot per second; pH, from 4.8 to 8.3; specific conductance, from 47 to 2,030 microsiemens per centimeter; temperature, from 13.5 to 22.5 degrees Celsius; and dissolved oxygen, from 3.6 to 8.7 milligrams per liter. Twenty-five of the seeps visited were flowing and had discharge ranging from less than 0.005 to 0.01 cubic foot per second; pH, from 6.0 to 7.7; specific conductance, from 36 to 395 microsiemens per centimeter; temperature, from 16.0 to 21.0 degrees Celsius; and dissolved oxygen, from 2.2 to 9.0 milligrams per liter.

In addition, laboratory measurements of alkalinity and turbidity were made. The ground-water samples were collected by using ultra-clean sampling protocols developed by the USGS for collecting ground-water samples in areas with water containing low concentrations of trace elements. This technique is based on recently gained experience in sampling surface water for these elements. Field parameters (water temperature, specific conductance, pH, and dissolved-oxygen concentration) were monitored prior to sample collection. three equipment blanks were collected to ensure that low-level trace-element contamination did not occur during sample collection. One split sample and a commercially-prepared reference standard were submitted to the NWQL to evaluate laboratory precision and accuracy, respectively. Trace-element concentrations in 10 sample splits and one equipment blank were also determined at the Rutgers University Chemistry Department laboratory. Results of the ICP-MS analyses and cold vapor flameless atomic absorption indicated that five trace elements--cobalt, copper, lead, mercury, and nickel--were detectable in low concentrations (<0.1-29 mg/L) in most of the samples from the 22 wells, and four elements--aluminum, barium, manganese and zinc--were detected in higher concentrations than the other elements (30-710 mg/L for aluminum; 4-180 mg/L for barium, manganese, and zinc). The remaining nine trace elements were present in concentrations consistently lower than the minimum reporting limit. Turbidity was low (less than 1 nephelometric turbidity unit (NTU)), indicating that the trace-element concentrations were present in the dissolved phase and ideally would be reproducible in the absence of highly variable concentrations of particulates. The concentration of lead in one sample exceeded the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) action level of 15 mg/L; concentrations ranged from <1 to 16 mg/Lake Mercury was frequently detected; concentrations ranged from <0.1 to 1.1 mg/L but did not exceed the USEPA maximum contaminant level. Results of analyses of the equipment blanks indicated that samples collected by using the new ultra-clean sampling protocols were free of low-level (< 1 mg/L) trace-element contamination. The analysis of the split sample sent to the NWQL had a difference of 5 percent or less for all constituents except aluminum, for which the analysis had a difference of 10 percent. Results of ICP-MS analyses of split water samples sent to the Rutgers University Chemistry Department laboratory were, in general, in good agreement (within 10 percent) with those of the NWQLake Results of the analysis of the commercial standard agreed (within 5 percent) with the known concentrations of the trace elements. The quality-assurance data (three blanks, one split sample, and one standard), although not statistically evaluated because of the small data set, indicate that the measured trace-element concentrations are precise and accurate and that the samples were free of contamination at the microgram-per-liter level of contamination.

Hydraulic conductivity is different in strata of different lithology and is the basis for separating the aquifer system into the Upper Floridan aquifer, a middle semi-confining unit, and the Lower Floridan aquifer. The coastal city of Cocoa withdraws about 26 million gallons of water per day from the Upper Floridan aquifer from a well field in east Orange County, about 25 miles inland. About 60 million gallons per day are withdrawn from the Upper Floridan aquifer and 56 million gallons per day from the Lower Floridan aquifer in the Orlando area, about 15 miles west of the Cocoa well field. Wells drilled in the Cocoa well field from 1955-61 yielded water with chloride concentrations ranging from 25-55 milligrams per liter. Soon after the wells were put in service, chloride concentrations increased; therefore, new wells were drilled further inland. Chloride concentrations in water from many of the new wells also have increased. Possible sources of saline water are lateral movement of relict seawater in the Upper Floridan aquifer from the east, regional upconing of saline water from the Lower Floridan aquifer or underlying older rocks, or localized upward movement of saline water through fractures. Several test wells were drilled to provide information about chloride concentration changes with depth and to monitor changes with time, including a multi-zone well drilled in 1965 (well C) and two wells drilled in the 1990's (wells R and S). Chloride concentrations have increased in the zone pumped by the supply wells (the upper 500 feet of the aquifer) and in the 1,351-1,357-foot deep zone of well C, but not in the two intervening zones. This indicates that the source of saline water is located laterally, rather than vertically, from the pumped zone in the area of well C. The potential for upward movement of saline water depends on the direction of the vertical hydraulic gradient and on the vertical hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer. A series of aquifer tests was run in 1993-94 and existing water-level and water-quality data were analyzed to evaluate the potential for upward movement of saline water in the well field. The transmissivity of the upper 500 feet of the aquifer is about 100,000 feet squared per day (the horizontal hydraulic conductivity is about 200 feet per day) and the storage coefficient is about 2x10 -4. Horizontal hydraulic conductivities determined from slug tests of the three deepest zones of well C ranged from 20-50 feet per day. Vertical hydraulic conductivities probably do not exceed 0.05 feet per day. The vertical hydraulic gradient is determined by comparing water levels in the various zones, but because of density differences, unadjusted water levels in the deepest zone investigated cannot be directly compared to water levels in the overlying freshwater zones. The difference between environmental-water heads (adjusted for density differences) in the saline-water zone of well C and the overlying freshwater zone were calculated from measured water levels for the period 1966 to 1994. During most of this time period, the gradient was downward, indicating that saline water did not move upward. Upconing of saline water probably is not taking place in the center and western part of the well field, based on the low vertical hydraulic conductivity values estimated for the middle semi-confining unit, the generally downward vertical hydraulic gradient, and the constant chloride concentrations in the intermediate zones of well C. However, there is no information about the extent of the zone of low vertical hydraulic conductivity gradient in the eastern part of the well field. Thus, increased chloride concentrations in supply wells in the eastern part of the well field could be caused either by lateral movement of saline water from the east, or by upward movement frm the Lower Floridan aquifer if the low conductivity zone is thin or breached by fractures, or by a combination of both lateral and vertical movement.

The data from that study, which are part of this report, are presented in American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) format in subject-specific data files on a Compact Disk-Read Only Memory (CD-ROM). The text of this report describes the objectives of the study, the location of sampling sites, sample-collection and processing techniques, equipment used, laboratory analytical methods, and quality-assurance procedures. The data files on CD-ROM contain the analytical results of water samples collected in the Tualatin River Basin, streamflow measurements of the main-stem Tualatin River and its major tributaries, flow data from the USA wastewater-treatment plants, flow data from stations that divert water from the main-stem Tualatin River, aquatic-biology data, and meteorological data from the Tualatin Valley Irrigation District (TVID) Agrimet Weather Station located in Verboort, Oregon. Specific information regarding the contents of each data file is given in the text. The data files use a series of letter codes that distinguish each line of data. These codes are defined in data tables accompanying the text. Presenting data on CD-ROM offers several advantages: (1) the data can be accessed easily and manipulated by computers, (2) the data can be distributed readily over computer networks, and (3) the data may be more easily transported and stored than a large printed report. These data have been used by the USGS to (1) identify the sources, transport, and fate of nutrients in the Tualatin River Basin, (2) quantify relations among nutrient loads, algal growth, low dissolved-oxygen concentrations, and high pH, and (3) develop and calibrate a water-quality model that allows managers to test options for alleviating water-quality problems.

Four wetland habitats were selected for the study--a moss-lichen wetland, a persistent emergent wetland, a scrub-shrub wetland, and a riverine wetland. Physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of each habitat were determined by field measurements and laboratory analyses. Samples were collected in March, June, August, and October. Sediment pH, temperature, and oxidation-reduction potential were measured in the field. Sediment samples were analyzed for concentrations of calcium, sodium, magnesium, potassium, nitrate and nitrite, ammonia, ammonia plus organic nitrogen, phosphorus, inorganic carbon, and total carbon. The most probable number of denitrifying bacteria was determined by a multiple-tube test. The dominant plant species were identified by plant-community analysis. The moss-lichen wetland was characterized by low pH (3.4 to 5.0) and small populations of denitrifying bacteria (70 to 400 per gram of wet soil). The scrub-shrub wetland was also acidic (pH 4.0 to 5.0), but supported larger numbers of denitrifying bacteria (510 to 11,000 per gram of wet soil). The number of denitrifying bacteria in the persistent emergent wetland exceeded 1,000,000 per gram of wet soil in early summer and pH in this habitat was higher (5.1 to 6.6) than in the bogs. Riverine wetland pH ranged from 5.4 to 6.9, and the number of denitrifying bacteria ranged from 200 to 11,000 per gram of wet soil. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services. 18 p. 1998.

Noticeable effects on water levels from withdrawals occur in the vicinity of the Borough of State College where an average of 8.1 million gallons per day is pumped. The carbonate aquifer system is heterogeneous and anisotropic parallel to the regional strike. The Nittany and Gatesburg Formations are the most prolific sources of water and will yield 1,000 gallons per minute or more to properly located and constructed wells. The Coburn through Nealmont Formations are the poorest sources of water but wells in these rocks will yield about 50 gallons per minute. Of the 42 large perennial springs identified, 25 have flows that commonly exceed 1,000 gallons per minute, and flows of 3 of the largest springs at times exceed 10,000 gallons per minute. Water budgets for Kishacoquillas and Spring Creeks, which are representative of all the valleys, indicate that an annual average of 0.62 and 0.80 million gallons per day per square mile, respectively, are available for water supply.

An electromagnetic survey also was conducted at the site to verify and augment the ground-penetrating radar data. The surveys were conducted over a 67,200-square-foot grid with a grid point spacing at 20 feet. During the ground-penetrating radar survey, 87 subsurface anomalies were detected based on visual inspection of the field records. These anomalies were flagged in the field as they appeared on the ground-penetrating radar records and were located by a land survey. The electromagnetic survey produced two significant readings at ground-penetrating radar anomaly locations. The National Park Service excavated 44 of the 87 anomaly locations at the Civil War battlefield site. Four of these excavations produced significant archaeological features, including one at an abandoned well. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services. 1998.

For example, the U.S. Geological Survey method I-3485-85 (Extraction Procedure, for Water-Suspended Sediment) is performed in a laboratory hood on a laboratory bench without any special precautions to control airborne contamination. This method tends to be contamination prone for several trace metals primarily because the samples are transferred, acidified, digested, and filtered in an open laboratory environment. To reduce trace-metal contamination of digested water samples, procedures were established that rely on minimizing sample-transfer steps and using a class-100 clean bench during sample filtration. This new procedure involves the following steps: 1. The sample is acidified with HCl directly in the original water-sample bottle. 2. The water-sample bottle with the cap secured is heated in a laboratory oven. 3. The digestate is filtered in a class-100 laminar-flow clean bench. The exact conditions used (that is, oven temperature, time of heating, and filtration methods) for this digestion procedure are described. Comparisons between the previous U.S Geological Survey open-beaker method I-3485-85 and the new in-bottle procedure for synthetic and field-collected water samples are given. When the new procedure is used, blank concentrations for most trace metals determined are reduced significantly. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services. 28 p. 1998.

Streams in rangelands had fewer occurrences and smaller concentrations of pesticides relative to streams in croplands. Nitrate levels in groundwater were highest where more than 60% of the area was in corn production, soils were most permeable, and water tables were within 50 ft of the land surface. Of 46 pesticides analyzed in water samples from the Platte River, alachlor, atrazine, and cyanazine were the most likely to influence the quality of public water supplies withdrawn from the Platte River alluvial aquifer. Wetlands in drainage basins dominated by row crops had herbicide levels that were markedly greater than those from wetlands in either rangelands or mixed land uses.

The BMPs implemented included runoff diversion and screening, grass filter strips, and grassed swales. At both watersheds, post-BMP loads of total BOD, phosphorus, and ammonia contributed by barnyards were substantially less than pre-BMP loads. Post-BMP loads of suspended solids and fecal coliform bacteria were significantly less at one site. The magnitude of loads contributed by the barnyards and the load reductions stemming from BMP system implementation were effectively measured by the upstream-downstream experimental design.

The amount of volcanic ash emitted was more than from all other historical eruptions in Alaska combined and devastated areas hundreds of miles away. The chance of another eruption of this scale in any given year is small, but such cataclysmic volcanic events are sure to occur in again in Alaska. Of the numerous volcanoes scattered across southern Alaska, at least 10 are capable of exploding in a 1912-scale eruption.

EPA criteria for total phosphorus in streams was most often exceeded during stormflow conditions in most land uses. Nitrates rarely exceeded the drinking water standard although it was present in low concentrations in groundwater in most urban and agricultural areas and in the Upper Floridian aquifer.

The state needs an integrated network in which stations are optimally located from a watershed perspective for forecasting floods, ensuring safe drinking water supplies, and planning and management of water resources. A proposed integrated water monitoring network includes stations to track groundwater levels, surface water quality, and streamflow. Recommended components of the network, as well as attendant economic and resource benefits, are specified.

AN - 36403062; 6713 AB - PURPOSE: The removal of coaxial cable and related equipment from private and public lands along a 220-mile corridor extending across New Mexico, Nevada, and California, is proposed. Approximately 58 percent of the project area consists of lands under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Land Management or the National Park Service. The communication system is owned and operated by AT� the system is known as the Phillips 140 cable system and consists of cable, repeater huts, manholes, marker posts, associated electronic equipment, and an access corridor. AT&T has proposed removal of the system because it is not compatible with the company's fiber optic network, it requires constant maintenance, and it is an unnecessary encumbrance on the land. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (Alternative A) would involve the removal of 174.5 miles of cable, 55 repeater huts, 57 manholes, and 174.2 miles of marker posts. Cables and marker posts would not be removed along certain sections of the California corridor because of topography or proximity to active fiber optic cable. The proposed action would include the elimination of 39.8 miles of the access corridor where it crossed wilderness areas and desert tortoise habitat. The estimated cost of the project is $9.5 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would remove an unnecessary utility right of way from sensitive desert habitat and would eventually return that habitat to its natural condition. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Cable removal would disturb 423 acres of desert vegetation along the right of way and critical habitat of the desert tortoise. In addition, the project would adversely affect soil productivity, recreation, visual aesthetics, and air quality.

AN - 36402966; 6690 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan for the management and use of developed areas within Crater Lake National Park, located in southwestern Oregon, is proposed. Crater Lake, a caldera lake constituting the deepest lake in the United States, lies within the 183,244-acre park. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative B), which would perpetuate the current management regime, allowing for completion of any facilities currently under construction, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative A), NPS interpretive services would be emphasized and commercial services modified to better serve visitors. Areas in which principal developments would occur would include Rim Village, Mazama Village, Cleetwood, and park headquarters at Munson Valley. At Rim Village, a visitor contact station and additional interpretation and wayside exhibits would be constructed and the cafeteria building would be converted to its original 1928 design. The commercial services at Rim Village would kept to a minimum to reduce the time spent by visitors at the site. The Rim Dormitory would be removed and the site used for bus parking. The historic landscape of the 1930s would be restored along the caldera rim. Mazama Village would become the focal point for most commercial visitor services, requiring the replacement of the Watchman restaurant with a full-service facility, the expansion of retail merchandise space, the relocation of the amphitheater to a more central site, and the addition of two group camping sites to complement the existing 40-unit Mazama Village Motor Inn and the 213-site Mazama campground. Some additional employee RV and trailer sites or, alternatively, additional dormitory space could be provided in Mazama if no sites for housing could be found outside the park. With respect to Cleetwood, boat tour frequency would be decreased and other aspects of the tour regime would be and concession boat facilities would be altered. Munson Valley would remain the focal point for park administration and housing, offering no visitor contact facility during the summer, but providing a backup visitor contact station with National History Association sales items and a post office when snow conditions make Rim Village inaccessible. Alternative C would offer a more self-directed visitor experience which would be less dependent on facilities and less structured than at present. Alternative D would enhance interpretation and provide a wider variety of commercial and National Park Service (NPS) visitor services. Alternative E would focus on concentrating visitor facilities at Rim Village. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would enhance educational and interpretive opportunities, promoting better visitor understanding and appreciation as well as ensuring preservation of Crater Lake. The actions at Rim Village would generally benefit the landscape of the historic district. Visitors would benefit from improved interpretive opportunities at Rim Village, Mazama Village and Cleetwood. Some historic structures would be used more intensively than the originally intended use level. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Minor, short-term impacts at Rim Village, Mazama Village, and Cleetwood would result from construction activities. Long-term impacts in these areas would amount to less than one acre of vegetation loss. The addition of a visitor contact station and the removal and revegetation of a parking lot along the rim edge at Rim Village would adversely affect cultural resources.

AN - 36410264; 6686 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of an integrated activity plan, including leasing options for the development of oil and gas reserves, for the Northeast National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska (NPR-A) within the North Slope Borough of Alaska, is proposed. The proposed action would determine the appropriate multiple-use management of 4.6 million acres of public lands in the NPR-A. Significant issues addressed EIS include the means of providing protection and enhanced management for surface resources, such as wildlife, wildlife habitat and fisheries as well as paleontological, subsistence, and recreation resources, within the planning area; and the determination of whether the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) will conduct oil and gas lease sales in the planning area and, if so, which lands will be made available for leasing. Subsistence resources, with particular reference to those associated with hunting and fishing, are exceedingly important to local residents, including the Inupiat, the aboriginal population of the North Slope. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. No alternative is identified as the preferred alternative. Each action alternative would designate some lands in recognition of their outstanding surface values. These designations would include establishing a special area (a designation established by the National Petroleum Reserve Production Act for areas of high resource value affording such areas especially high protection), enlarging an existing Special Area near Teshekpuk Lake, recommending Congressional designation of much of the Colville River and lands immediately adjacent to it for protection as a National Wild and Scenic River, and creating a bird conservation area. The Colville River valley provides important habitat for raptors, including the arctic peregrine falcon which, until 1994, was listed as an endangered species, as well as for neotropical migratory birds, moose and fish. The Teshekpuk Lake area provides habitat for the Teshepuk Lake Caribou Herd, which calves in the lands around the lake and provides much of the meat harvested by nearby North Slope villagers. The lake area also provides summer breeding and nesting ground for waterbirds migrating north from throughout the Americas. The action alternatives would also include a range of options for making lands available for oil and gas leasing associated with the massive Prudhoe Bay field. The oil industry has discovered and developed fields both to the east and west of Prudhoe. However, production from these older fields is declining and there are indications that the planning area contains resources that can help stem the decline. Oil leasing alternatives would vary from making no lands available to making all lands available. The alternatives would also include a range of stipulations that would be attached to BLM authorizations to mitigate impacts to resources. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The North Slope contributes approximately 20 percent of the nation's domestic oil production; additional extraction leases would compensate for declining production in other areas of the North Slope. Wild and Scenic designation for the Colville River and extension of the Teshekpuk Lake area would afford additional protection to important species and help to perpetuate the way of life of the Inupiat. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Activities associated with the exploration and development of hydrocarbon resources would damage habitat and adversely affect the naturalness of the disturbed areas. More specifically, hydrocarbon resources development would result in the degradation of paleontological sites and water and air quality and the disturbance of vegetation and the habitat for birds, fish, and terrestrial species. The potential for oil spills would attend any alternative involving leasing.

AN - 36410380; 6681 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a water resources management plan to increase the water supply in California's Central Valley is proposed. The study area, which covers approximately 3,350 square miles, draws its water from extensive groundwater aquifers as well as the American, Bear, Calaveras, Consumnes, Feather, Mokelumne, Sacramento, San Joaquin, and Stanislaus rivers. According to a water demand model, the area's demand cannot be satisfied from existing sources and the area requires 521,000 additional acre feet of water per year to stabilize groundwater storage. Portions of the groundwater system are currently in overdraft. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, were considered in the draft EIS of January 1996. The two action alternatives would increase water supplies through conservation, reclamation, and new water facilities. The Conjunctive Use Alternative would vary the mix of surface water and groundwater used each year to meet water demands. In wet years, surface water use would be increased and groundwater pumping reduced, and in dry years the pattern would be reversed. To maximize surface water use in wet years, increased surface water diversion and expanded distribution facilities would be needed. Water could be diverted from the American River at Lake Nakoma or the Sacramento River near Freeport, below the confluence with the American River, for groundwater recharge in southern Sacramento County and San Joaquin County. In addition, well capacity and groundwater distribution facilities would be increased to accommodate increased pumping during dry years. The Auburn Dam Alternative would contain all the features of the Conjunctive Dam Alternative plus additional surface water storage. This alternative would involve the construction of a new dam on the American River at Auburn. This final EIS, which is issued in an abbreviated format, contains corrections and revisions to the draft EIS, public comments and agency responses, and technical appendices. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Either of the action alternatives would enable the area to meet its projected water demand and prevent the development of serious water quality problems and the possible dewatering of some local wells. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Dam and reservoir development and operation would displace sensitive habitats and vegetation communities and would alter water temperature and aquatic habitat downstream. Acid mine drainage concentration levels would increase under both alternatives. Dam construction would adversely affect the eligibility of the North and Middle forks of the American River as wild and scenic rivers.

AN - 36402987; 6677 AB - PURPOSE: The development and operation of a open-pit, heap-leach, precious metal mine and related facilities by Glamis Imperial Corporation, located in southeastern California, is proposed. The project mine and process area consists of 1,571 acres located 45 miles northeast of El Centro, California, and 20 miles northwest of Yuma, Arizona. The project applicant would use conventional heap leach mining methods to extract gold and silver from the mined ore. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would involve the operation of three open pits, two waste rock stockpiles, two soil stockpiles, five ephemeral wash (drainage) diversion channels, an administration office and maintenance facility area, a heap leach facility (consisting of a heap leach pad and process ponds), a precious metal recovery plant, an electric substation and emergency generator, and internal haul and maintenance roads and associated electrical distribution lines. Up to 150 million tons of ore would be mined and deposited on the leach pad where the precious metals would be leached. The ancillary facilities would include four groundwater production wells, 3.7 miles of buried water pipeline, and a 92-kilovolt (92-kV)/13.2-kV electrical transmission line. Under the proposed action, the Imperial Irrigation District would overbuild approximately 16 miles of existing 34.5-kV electric transmission line into a 92-kV/34.5-kV electric transmission line in order to provide electrical power for the project. Up to 300 million tons of waste rock would be mined and deposited in the waste rock stockpiles or the mined-out portions of the two open pits. Mining activities would be performed 24 hours per day, seven days per week. The typical mining rate would be 130,000 tons per day. Operations would commence in 1998 and terminate in the year 2017, although reclamation activities would probably continue beyond that date. The project would require an initial capital investment of $48 million, $1.7 million per year in continuing capital expenditures, and $26 million per year in non-capital expenditures including payroll. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The mine would employ up to 120 full-time workers for the life of the mine and provide associated taxes and revenues. Facility construction would require 300 workers. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would disturb 1,302 acres and divert segments of five existing watercourses. Particulate emissions from mining operations would contribute to periodic exceedances of regional air quality standards. The project would result in the loss of wildlife habitat and the displacement from the adversely affected habitat of wildlife, including the endangered desert tortoise. Visual resources would be adversely affected by mining activities. Numerous prehistoric cultural resources would be adversely affected.

Preparation date: November 20, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GOLDEN SUNLIGHT MINE EXPANSION, JEFFERSON COUNTY, MONTANA. AN - 36403935; 6669 AB - PURPOSE: The continued operation by the Golden Sunlight Mines, Inc., of an open-pit gold mine beyond its current permit boundaries, located in southwestern Montana, is proposed. The mine is located on public and private lands along the southern flank of Bull Mountain, five miles northeast of Whitehall. Mineral exploration and small-scale underground mining were conducted at the site from 1890 until 1958. Mining resumed at the site in 1983, although these new mining operations involved the use of cyanide vat leaching and other processes that would economically extract ore from low-grade, large-tonnage resources. In September 1994, a Montana District Court decided that a proposed expansion of the mine could not proceed unless an EIS were prepared. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would allow mining to continue in the area until the year 2006 and expand the pit, waste rock dump areas, and buttress area. Sheep Rock Creek would be diverted into a tributary of Conrow Creek to prevent water from contacting acid-generating waste rock. The mine's permit area would expand to include an additional 1,054 acres, and tonnage processed at the mine would increase from 34.1 million tons to 55 million tons. The preferred alternative is the proposed action as modified by the Return Diversion Alternative and No Pit Pond Alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would provide continued employment to its work force of 208 workers. If the mine continued operating through 2011, it would contribute $484.1 million in economic benefits to the area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Pit dewatering, surface water diversions, tailings impoundments, and waste rock dumps would adversely affect surface water and groundwater quality. Of the 2,964 acres disturbed by mining operations, some 259 acres would not be revegetated and reclaimed following mine closure; the mine expansion would disturb approximately 627 acres. Mine operations would result in the loss of habitat for roosting bats and migratory birds. The waste rock dump sites would create a visual contrast with the surrounding countryside and might limit access to potential fossil-bearing deposits. The proposed action would have an increased potential for a slope failure east of Sheep Rock Creek due to the placement of the East Waste Rock Dump.

Preparation date: November 13, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - JOSHUA TREE NATIONAL PARK, RIVERSIDE AND SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES, CALIFORNIA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF JULY 1995). AN - 36410657; 6668 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of the general management plan for development and visitor use of Joshua Tree National Park, located in the Mojave and Colorado deserts of southern California, is proposed. The park occupies 794,000 acres, most of which is legislated wilderness; the park is the only desert wilderness in California set aside for the preservation of natural, cultural, historic, and scenic resources. It was established as a unit in the national park system in 1936, and in 1994 its status was changed from a national monument to a national park and 234,000 acres of wilderness and backcountry were added to its boundaries. This draft EIS supplements the management plan prepared for the area in 1994 and presents management guidelines for the newly acquired acres. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative B), are considered in this draft supplement. The proposed action (Alternative A) would offer a variety of recreational opportunities in the backcountry areas but would minimize disturbance to resources. A trail system would be created for hiking and bicycling, and 36.9 miles of existing roads would be open to motor vehicle use. All other dirt tracks or roads would be closed to vehicle use. Rock climbing would be allowed in certain areas, and the National Park Service would issue permits for the installation of new climbing bolts. Auto camping would be allowed only in designated campgrounds, and no such facilities would be created on any of the added lands. All but 6,000 acres of the park would be designated a wildlife management area for desert tortoise recovery. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, implementation would minimize the disturbance to resources while increasing visitor activities and services. It would preserve the vegetation and the unique geological and archaeological features of the park while providing enjoyment and learning opportunities for many thousands of visitors. It would also guide the management of the park for the next 10 to 15 years. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The eight roads that would remain open in the backcountry area are located in desert tortoise habitat.

AN - 36405715; 6663 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of the Central Valley Project Improvement Act of 1992 (CVPIA), located in central California, is proposed. The CVPIA was passed in order to protect and enhance fish and wildlife resources in the Central Valley and Trinity River basins (including the Trinity, Sacramento, American, Stanislaus, and San Joaquin rivers), to address impacts of water resource projects on fish and wildlife, to improve the operational flexibility of these projects and water conservation, and to protect the San Francisco Bay and Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Estuary. Prior to the development of water resources in California, anadromous fish were attracted upstream during storm events from fall through the spring. The storm flows also provided flushing flows to move fish downstream from the upper reaches of the streams where spawning occurred. The rain and snow also repelled saltwater intrusion in the delta from the San Francisco Bay. The Central Valley projects modified the flow patterns by shifting peak river flows to the summer months and altering the temperatures of some stream reaches. Fish and wildlife were also adversely affected by the construction of levees along many of the rivers and the delta. The levees eliminated many wetland and shallow water zones where spawning and rearing occurred. Twenty alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this programmatic draft EIS. All of the action alternatives have certain core programs in common: renewing all Central Valley Project service, water rights, and exchange contracts; implementing water measurement; upgrading Tracy and Contra Costa pumping plants fish protection facilities; constructing a Shasta temperature control device; completing improvements to the Coleman National Fish Hatchery; modifying irrigation diversion facilities for fish protection; implementing seasonal field flooding; and purchasing 30,000 acres of retired land. The alternatives would differ in their methods of habitat restoration, water pricing, Red Bluff Diversion Dam modification, delta fish barrier construction, water transfer, and retired land revegetation. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The plan would define operational criteria, management, and structural priorities for the Central Valley Project throughout the next water contracting cycle. The proposal would comply with the mandate contained in the CVPIA for the protection of fish and wildlife habitat in the Central Valley and the achievement of a reasonable balance among competing demands for the region's water supply. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Additional commitments of water to delta outflow for fishery use would be lost for irrigation and other freshwater uses south of the delta. Fish mortality in the American, Merced, and Sacramento rivers would increase because of an increase in water temperature. Flatwater recreation at Lake Red Bluff would be eliminated.

AN - 16343508; 6653 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of the general management plan (GMP) for the Yosemite National Park, located within east-central California, is proposed. Previous draft supplements and a draft addendum examined various alternatives for new and replacement housing outside the Yosemite Valley for some of the 1,900 employees who currently work and reside in the park. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft supplement to the final EIS of September 1980. The preferred alternative (Alternative 2) would emphasize the removal of unnecessary structures and circulation features, restoration and protection of recovered land, relocation of facilities out of sensitive or hazardous areas, and reduction of traffic congestion. Under this plan, 147 acres in the east end of Yosemite Valley would be reclaimed and restored to natural conditions, 82 acres would be redesigned, and 38 acres would be developed to accommodate relocated facilities or functions; 21 acres in the west end of the valley would be developed. The present visitor center would be removed, and the two auditoriums would be redesigned and remodeled. The total number of campsites would be reduced from 756 to 675, and facilities damaged in the January 1997 flood would be relocated. Day use visitors would park in the west end of the valley, and overnight visitors would park near their lodgings in order to reduce congestion. Most vehicles would be intercepted at an orientation and transfer facility at Taft Toe. Additional parking would be constructed at Taft Toe if necessary. Three historic bridges would be removed to improve hydrology of the Merced River. The estimated one-time development cost for Alternative 2 is $141.7 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, slightly more than 147 acres within the Yosemite Valley would be restored to natural conditions. The removal of structures in scenic areas would significantly improve visual aesthetics. Planned construction would support 261 new jobs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The reduction in the number of campsites could result in lost visitor spending. The removal of historic buildings and bridges would result in irretrievable loss of these resources.

The study includes the following federal agencies: the Corp of Engineers, the Bureau of Reclamation, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Bonneville Power Administration, the U.S. Forest Service, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, the National Marine Fisheries Service, the Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Northwest Planning Council. The state agencies that manage water allocation, water quality, submerged lands, and the fisheries resources are examined within the state chapters. The study also contains a critique of the institutionl structure in the Columbia River Basin. This critique and evaluation of the existing structure focuses on the myriad entities and governing statutes previously identified; it highlights overlapping authority, conflicitng mandates, lack of coordination, and other jurisdictional issues.

AN - 36410839; 6649 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of an agreement to provide water from the American River to the East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) for use in portions of Contra Costa and Alameda counties, located in northern California, is proposed. EBMUD provides its 1.2 million customers with 220 million gallons of water per day; 95 percent of that supply comes from the Pardee Reservoir on the Mokelumne River, and the additional five percent is local runoff collected in terminal storage reservoirs owned and operated by EBMUD. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would provide EBMUD with a supplemental water supply in the event of drought or an outage at the Mokelumne River diversion facilities. EBMUD currently has a contract with the Bureau of Reclamation for delivery of up to 150,000 acre-feet per year from the existing Folsom South Canal. The contract specifies a delivery location at an existing turnout structure near Grant Line Road in Sacramento County. EBMUD has been paying for water under the contract shortly after signing the contract in 1970, although only small quantities of water have ever been delivered. Alternative 2 is an EBMUD-only project that would involve deliveries from the American River via the Folsom South Canal to a new pipeline connecting the canal and EBMUD's Mokelumne Aqueducts in San Joaquin County. Alternative 3 would involve a joint project between EBMUD, the City of Sacramento, and the County of Sacramento. Water for EBMUD and the county would be delivered to a new intake location on the American River near its confluence with the Sacramento River. Water for the city would be diverted under existing entitlements through an expansion of existing diversion and treatment facilities on the American and Sacramento rivers. A new pipeline would be constructed to convey the water to the city's water treatment plant. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Either of the action alternatives would enable the area to meet its projected water demand and would prevent the development of serious water supply problems. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would result in a change in visual resources at the American River intake structure site, mortality of steelhead trout and Chinook salmon from increased water temperature in the American River, and loss of habitat for raptors, Swainson's hawks, western burrowing owls, vernal pool fairy shrimp, and other species.

AN - 36410928; 6634 AB - PURPOSE: The exchange of up to 90,000 acres of public lands for over 70,000 acres of private lands, located in central-northeast Oregon, is proposed. The exchange, proposed by the Central Oregon and Baker Resource Areas in the Prineville and Vale districts, would enable the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to dispose of upland tracts that are difficult or inefficient to manage because of their remote location and to acquire sensitive riparian areas that would benefit from BLM protections. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 2), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 1) would involve the disposal of 50,000 acres of public lands, primarily on scattered tracts, and the acquisition of 47,400 acres of private lands, mostly on the North Fork John Day River and its tributaries. The acquired lands would include nearly 60 miles of salmonid fish habitat, up to 500 acres of riparian habitat on 71.5 miles of perennial streams, important big game wintering habitat for 1,500 elk and 4,000 mule deer, and a wide range of recreational opportunities on contiguous blocks of land. Of the disposed lands, nearly 80 percent would lack public access and 80 percent would be 80 acres or less in size. In contrast, the acquired lands would be large blocks of contiguous lands that would be accessible to the general public. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The acquisition of the offered lands by the Bureau of Land Management would result in greater levels of protection for fragile riparian areas and several species listed as threatened or endangered. The land tenure adjustment would improve BLM management of public lands in the region and improve opportunities for fishing, hiking, camping, mountain biking, and wildlife viewing. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would result in a net loss of 527 acres of old-growth forest habitat.

AN - 16354256; 6621 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, located in southwestern Arizona, is proposed. The monument, which was established in 1937, consists of 330,689 acres of Sonoran Desert along the border with Mexico. It contains a wide variety of ecologically significant resources, including the endangered Quitobaquito desert pupfish, and sites of archaeological and ethnological importance, some of which are still in use by the descendants of the original Tohono O'odham people, whose reservation borders the monument to the east. In 1976, the monument was designated a biosphere reserve as part of the UNESCO Man and the Biosphere Program. With the steady growth in the number of people coming to the area, existing facilities have not been able to accommodate demand. Under the proposed action, the project would include upgrading existing programs and facilities to manage, preserve, protect, and interpret the park's resources. Major features of the plan would include increased regional, tri-national, and interagency cooperative efforts; the preservation of significant cultural resources; new facilities and other improvements in the Twin Peaks, Lukeville, and Quitobaquito Springs areas; and the designation of the monument as Sonoran Desert National Park. In addition, the National Park Service would launch a cooperative program to reduce the excessive volume and speed of traffic along State Route 85. A draft supplement to the draft EIS of April 1995 presented technical revisions to the proposed action and a second alternative originally presented in the draft EIS; the revisions were developed in response to public comment. The revised proposed action as presented in this final EIS is similar to the original proposed action except that the National Wilderness Preservation System would be expanded by 1,509 acres. Additional monitoring requirements would be implemented to protect the endangered Sonoran pronghorn, the lesser long-nosed bat, and the recently listed cactus ferruginous pygmy owl. This final EIS, which is issued in an abbreviated format, contains corrections and revisions to the draft supplement as well as public comments and agency responses; the draft EIS and draft supplement have been reissued as companion documents. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would improve the monument's interpretation facilities, thereby enhancing visitors' appreciation of the Sonoran Desert. The implementation under the proposed action would also lead to an expansion of national wilderness areas by 1,509 acres and help perpetuate the existence of endangered and sensitive species, including the Quitobaquito desert pupfish and Quitobaquito snail. A new trail system would help to control visitor use and reduce adverse ecological impacts. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Increased visitation of the area would further increase air pollutant levels, despite the area's redesignation from a class II to a class I airshed. The construction would result in the disturbance or loss of 50 acres of desert flora. LEGAL MANDATES: Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), and Public Law 95-625.

AN - 16354168; 6611 AB - PURPOSE: The consolidation of National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) research and administrative facilities located in Juneau, Alaska, is proposed. The NMFS operates numerous programs and facilities in various locations throughout Alaska. The two largest NMFS programs in the Juneau area are the NMFS Alaska Regional Office (ARO) and the Auke Bay Laboratory (ABL), which is associated with the Alaska Fisheries Science Center in Seattle, Washington. The two facilities, which are located in different parts of Juneau, collaborate in the development of fishery management policies and regulations for the fisheries off the Alaska coast. The ARO is located in rented General Services Administration office space in the federal building in downtown Juneau. The ABL, which provides the scientific research needed to support fishery management decisions, is located on a 3.5-acre site located 12 miles northwest of Juneau. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, were considered in the draft EIS of September 1996. This draft supplement considers one additional alternative, which would involve locating the consolidated facility on the 22-acre Lena Point site, which is now operated as a rock quarry. The draft EIS had identified the 28-acre undeveloped site at Auke Cape as the preferred alternative; the site has been transferred from the U.S. Coast Guard to the NMFS. Access to the site would be provided by developing the existing National Park Service (NPS) road and Otter Way through the Indian Cove community. The facility would include approximately 88,000 gross square feet (gsf) of administrative office space and common areas, 58,000 gsf of laboratory space, and 3,800 gsf of warehouse space. The site would be built to accommodate 273 employees and visitors. The estimated project development costs are $65.0 million to $70.0 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The consolidation of the two facilities would improve the overall efficiency of program operations and reduce administrative costs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction of the project would adversely affect homes located along the NPS road. The increased traffic along the road would increase noise levels and adversely affect the community character.

Preparation date: October 3, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WASTE ISOLATION PILOT PLANT, EDDY COUNTY, NEW MEXICO (SECOND FINAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF OCTOBER 1980). AN - 16345937; 6614 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan for a demonstration project for the safe disposal of radioactive transuranic (TRU) wastes resulting from Department of Energy (DOE) activities related to national defense at the waste isolation pilot plant (WIPP) site, located near Carlsbad in southeastern New Mexico, is proposed. The TRU waste is contaminated with alpha-emitting radionuclides that are heavier than uranium and have half-lives longer than 20 years at concentrations greater than 100 nanocuries per gram of waste. The TRU waste needing disposal resulted from nuclear weapons development and manufacturing, plutonium recovery, military research and development, environmental restoration and decontamination, waste management, and testing at facilities that are under DOE contract. The TRU waste exists in a variety of forms ranging from unprocessed laboratory trash to solidified sludges from wastewater treatment. Approximately 60 percent of this waste is classified as mixed waste. A second draft supplement to the final EIS of October 1980 considered a proposed action, three action alternatives, two No Action Alternatives, and various subalternatives. Under the proposed action, 175,600 cubic meters of TRU waste would be disposed of in the WIPP repository. All waste would be transported by truck in 55-gallon drums, although rail transportation would be an option for future transportation of TRU waste. The WIPP would receive and dispose of the TRU waste for 35 years, and the repository would be closed when it had reached its storage capacity. The repository would be sealed to prevent water from entering it and impede the gases or brines from migrating out. The decommissioning period would take ten years. The total estimated life-cycle costs for the proposed action would be $12.1 billion in 1994 dollars. The proposed action has been identified as the preferred alternative in this second final supplement. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The WIPP would provide a permanent repository for isolating transuranic wastes from the biosphere for thousands of years, thus affording long-term protection to the public against the possible release of radioactive materials generated by national defense programs. The repository would provide an opportunity to test disposal methods for high-level radioactive wastes and to demonstrate the disposal of spent reactor fuel. The proposed action would generate 3,538 jobs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The use of the site as a nuclear waste repository would permanently restrict the extraction of mineral resources, including potassium salts and hydrocarbons, above and below the repository. Rangeland and wildlife habitat would be displaced by surface facilities, transportation routes, and a mined-rock pile. Local residents would be exposed to increased radiation doses due to plant operation. Plant and transportation accidents could increase exposure doses. Routine operations could result in five worker fatalities at waste treatment sites and three fatalities at WIPP; truck transportation could result in an additional eight deaths. The influx of construction workers would increase the demand for services and housing. The construction would disturb wildlife and could result in the destruction of archaeological resources.

AN - 36412348; 6608 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a four-lane, limited-access, divided highway to the north and west of the city of Fredericksburg, located in northeastern Virginia, is proposed. The roadway would be approximately 9 to 14 miles long and require a bridge across the Rappahannock River. The project area extends from US 1 in the vicinity of I-95 and Route 627 in Stafford County to Route 3 in the vicinity of the intersection with Route 610 in Spotsylvania County. The roadway would provide an additional north-south travel corridor in the region, relieving current and projected congestion on I-95, US 17, and Route 3. The Fredericksburg area is one of Virginia's fastest growing regions. Two alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The Regional Build Alternative would consist of five corridor options. Corridors 1 through 4 would be similar in that they would all tie in to the I-95/US 1 interchange in Stafford County, in the vicinity of the Mine Road Extension/airport access. From this connection, the four corridors would all proceed southwesterly to a crossing of US 17, continue in a southerly direction to a crossing of the Rappahannock River, and then connect to Route 3. The Corridor 5 option would consist of three components: a connecting roadway between I-95/US 1 and US 17, a Route 3 bypass with new interchanges on I-95, and additional lanes of collector-distributor roads along the portion I-95 in and to the north of Fredericksburg. The estimated costs of the build alternatives are $79.1 million to $122.9 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the facility would benefit through travel in the region and improve safety and efficiency. It would also provide for improved intermodal linkages to promote economic growth. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the build alternatives, rights-of-way requirements would displace up to 78 residences, 13 businesses, 16.5 acres of wetlands, 322 acres of prime farmland, and 126.4 acres of likely habitat of the small whorled pogonia. In addition, up to 17 streams would be crossed, and 255 residences would experience increased noise levels. Some of the corridors would require the taking of property from the Banks Ford and Lick Run historic districts.

Preparation date: October 1, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLAN, NATIONAL PARK OF AMERICAN SAMOA, AMERICAN SAMOA. AN - 16339151; 6793 AB - PURPOSE: This implementation of a general management plan to guide the development and use of the National Park of American Samoa for the next 10 to 15 years, located in the Territory of American Samoa, is proposed. The national park is composed of three widely separated units on the islands of Tutuila, Ta'u, and Ofu. The Tutuila unit of the park is composed of approximately 2,500 acres of land and approximately 1,200 acres of offshore waters. This unit is located on the north-central part of Tutuila Island between villages of Fagasa on the west and Afono on the east. The Ta'u unit, located about 60 miles east of Tutuila Island, is comprised of about 5,400 acres of land and approximately 1,000 acres of offshore waters. The unit is located on the southeastern half of Ta'u Island with its northern boundary high in the summit area of the cloud forest. Ofu Island is about 10 miles northwest of Ta'u Island and has the smallest park unit with about 70 acres of land and about 350 acres of offshore waters. The Ofu park unit boundary follows along the southern shoreline of the island from Fatuana Point west to Asaga Strait. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative B), are considered in this final EIS. The proposed action (the preferred alternative, Alternative A) would include the development of major facilities and access so that visitors to this new and, as yet, undeveloped park could fully appreciate its significant attributes. This would include the construction of a visitor center and park headquarters in the Pago Pago Harbor area and an aerial tramway system capable of bringing visitors into the Tutuila unit of the park. These facilities would be built on land owned by the American Samoa Government, located outside of the park. Visitor contact stations would be built in the Ta'u and Ofu units of the park. Other than by the aerial tramway, visitors would access the park via a system of hiking trails. No roads would be built within the park. The villages located near the national park would be encouraged to provide national park visitors with food, beverages, and guide services, as well as overnight accommodations. Management strategies would be implemented to preserve and protect the nationally significant natural and cultural resources. Traditional subsistence agriculture, gathering, and fishing uses within the park would be maintained. The proposed action would also include the development of a full interpretive program focusing on the traditional Samoan culture and on the tropical rainforest, flying fox, and coral reef resources. The National Park Service would operate the park in a manner that would be consistent with fa'asamoa, the traditional Samoan way of life. Traditional customs and traditional subsistence uses of the park's lands and waters would be maintained. The estimated construction costs are about $13.0 million. An additional $426,000 would be needed to rehabilitate and convert existing facilities for visitor use and $780,000 would need to be added to the park base to carry out operations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would bring about long-term implementation of both natural and cultural resource management and development of an interpretive program to inform and educate visitors, which would benefit the regional economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The facility developments would have minimal, short-term adverse effects on the park's natural, marine, cultural, and archaeological resources. Short-term adverse effects would be localized to the Pago Pago area on Tutuila with an increase in traffic and noise in the vicinity of major construction sites. National park visitors staying overnight in the adjacent villages could disrupt traditional activities.

Water sampling methods and streamflow trends are described, followed by analytical results for specific conductance, pH, temperature, DO, major ions, nutrients, trace elements, and pesticides. Of 29 pesticides for which samples were assayed, only diazinon was detected during the summer at two sites at concentrations of 0.01-0.02 mu g/l. For all sites, nitrate-nitrogen concentrations were in the 1.39-2.38 mg/l range and phosphorus concentrations ranged from less than 0.010 to 0.050 mg/l. Trace elements were marked by little variability in concentration along reaches or between seasons.

AN - 16342825; 6607 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a fish screen improvement project at the Glenn-Colusa Irrigation District's Hamilton City Pumping Plant in west-central California, is proposed. The project would be located on the Sacramento River and adjacent side channel between River Mile 205 and 206, near the intersect of Butte, Tehama, and Glenn counties. The pumping plant, which supplies water to irrigated lands and national wildlife refuges in the area, jeopardizes the survival of winter-run chinook salmon and other fish. The existing fish screen is a 475-foot flat-plate screen on a side channel (oxbow) of the river. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. All of the action alternatives would involve extending the existing fish screen by at least 600 feet, improving and deepening the oxbow channel, and constructing an improved and extended guide berm across the fish screens and an oxbow flow control structure with a removable bridge deck. The preferred alternative would include provisions for an internal fish bypass system to convey juvenile fish moving along the screen face into one of three bell-shaped entrance bays that transition to a four- to five-foot diameter pipeline. Three concrete pipelines, ranging from 800 to 1,400 feet in length, would separately convey bypassed fish from each of the bays to one of two optional outfall locations. In addition, this alternative would involve constructing a gradient on the mainstem Sacramento River adjacent to Montgomery Island. The estimated cost of the preferred alternative, not including environmental mitigation, is $39.2 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, fish passage problems at the pumping plant would be alleviated, a vital component of the Department of the Interior's program to restore fisheries in the Central Valley Project. Fish screen improvements would result in a reduction in the numbers of juvenile fish lost. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Cofferdams and other construction equipment would have a short-term adverse effect on fishery resources and recreational boating. The extension of the fish screen would result in the permanent loss of riparian habitat.

Preparation date: September 30, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - LEWIS AND CLARK NATIONAL FOREST OIL AND GAS LEASING; CASCADE, CHOUTEAU, FERGUS, GLACIER, GOLDEN VALLEY, JUDITH BASIN, LEWIS AND CLARK, MEAGHER, PARK, PONDERA, SWEETGRASS, TETON, AND WHEATLAND COUNTIES, MONTANA. AN - 36400297; 6603 AB - PURPOSE: The leasing of land for oil and gas development in the Lewis and Clark National Forest, located in central and northwestern Montana, is proposed. The National Forest is physically divided into two distinct units: the Rocky Mountain Division (777,537 acres) consists of a contiguous mountain range in northwestern Montana; and the Jefferson Division (1.1 million acres) consists of seven mountain ranges separated by large expanses of prairie and agricultural land. The current forest plan prohibits oil and gas leasing on approximately 600,000 acres of wilderness areas, and permits leasing on 1.2 million acres under specified constraints. Seven alternatives, including the No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), under which no new federal leases would be issued, are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative 2), the direction of the existing forest plan would be continued but additional protections would be added for steep slopes and lands adjacent to stream segments eligible for designation as wild rivers under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act. Under this alternative, some 572,881 acres would be available under a no-surface-occupancy (NSO) stipulation, 178,059 acres would be available under controlled-surface-use (CSU) stipulation, 87,871 acres would have timing limitations, and 88,237 acres would have both timing limitations and CSU stipulations. Standard lease terms would apply to 300,760 acres. The preferred alternative (Alternative 7) would limit oil and gas development in the Rocky Mountain Division while providing limited opportunity for exploration activity. Development with stipulations would be allowed within a one-mile corridor along either side of existing roads in the Blackleaf, Elk Creek, and Cuniff Basin areas only. Where surface occupancy on lands adjacent to the forest was not feasible due to land management constraints, lands within the forest would not be available for lease. Leasing with NSO stipulations would be allowed on a one-mile strip along the eastern perimeter to provide opportunities to extract oil and gas from surface locations located outside the forest boundary. In both divisions of the national forest, 946,784 acres of forest would be made available for oil and gas leasing as follows: 393,793 acres would be under a CSU stipulation; 135,958 acres would be affected by CSU and timing limitations; and 417,033 acres would be available under NSO stipulations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The continued leasing operations would provide a domestic source of oil and gas, and provide accruals to the U.S. Treasury from lease bonus bids and annual lease rentals. The construction and drilling activities would provide temporary employment opportunities for the local work force. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The new fields and associated road construction would disturb approximately 14 acres with sensitive soils. Air pollutant emissions from gas-driven field engines and emergency gas flaring could be significant in the area. Vegetation and wildlife and livestock forage in the immediate drilling areas would be disturbed. Riparian areas and wetlands would be adversely affected by increased sediment loads and potential contaminant spills.

Preparation date: September 26, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - LITTLE ROCK MINE PROJECT, GRANT COUNTY, NEW MEXICO. AN - 36405099; 6594 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation by the Phelps Dodge Mining Company of an open-pit copper mine, located in southwestern New Mexico, is proposed. The 600-acre project area is located seven miles south of Silver City, along the northeastern flank of Big Burro Mountain. The area consists of 164 acres of patented mining claims for the Tyrone Mine site, which is also operated by the applicant, 390 acres of public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management, and 46 acres of the Gila National Forest administered by the Forest Service. Issues identified during the scoping process include the quality and quantity of post-mining water generated by the open pit, and the effects of the haul road and California Gulch diversion on surface water and riparian areas. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this final EIS. The proposed action (Alternative 2) would involve the construction, operation, and reclamation of the mine pit, including the diversion of stream water in California Gulch and the creation of a pit lake after mining operations have ceased. Groundwater in-flow to the pit bottom would be pumped from the pit and discharged to either the Number 1X Tailing Dam or used for process make-up water while mining is in progress. The applicant estimates that over a two- to four-year period, 60 million tons of waste would removed from the pit and up to 100 million tons of ore would be mined and processed at existing permitted sites at the Tyrone facility. The project would require the construction of a haul road from the new mine site, across Deadman Canyon, to the Tyrone processing facilities. Overburden or other inert, nonmineralized materials would be stockpiled for potential use in reclamation. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The extraction and processing of copper ore from the Little Rock Mine would extend operations at the Tyrone site for approximately two to four years, providing employment, tax revenues, and local economic benefits. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 230 acres would be disturbed under the proposed action, resulting in an increased potential for soil erosion and a loss of soil productivity. The diversion of California Gulch would result in altered flows in either Whitewater Canyon, a tributary to Whitewater Canyon, or Deadman Canyon. Construction and mining activities would adversely affect up to four historic and two prehistoric sites.

Preparation date: September 18, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - OLINGHOUSE MINE PROJECT, WASHOE COUNTY, NEVADA. AN - 16344346; 6577 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of the Olinghouse Mine by Alta Gold Company (Alta), located in northwestern Nevada, is proposed. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, Alta would construct and operate two open-pit mines, a waste rock dump, a haul road, and an ore crushing, milling, and leaching complex. The project would also include other ancillary facilities associated with the mining and milling and the reclamation of the disturbed areas. The two open pits, which would eventually expand to become one pit, would be located in the Green Hill area north of the original Olinghouse townsite. The waste rock dump would be located in Frank Free Canyon east of the mine, while the ore crushing, milling and leaching complex would be situated south of the mine between Olinghouse Canyon and Pierson Canyon. Ancillary facilities would include haul and access roads, a water pipeline, an electric transmission line, an equipment maintenance facility, an analytical laboratory, fuel and reagent storage facilities, and water and solution control structures. The project would produce approximately 600,000 ounces of gold from 9.66 million tons of ore. Approximately 43.38 million tons of waste rock would be disposed in the dump. A small fraction of the ore containing coarse-grained gold particles would be processed through a gravity mill. Mill tailings and the remaining lower grade ore would be leached using a conventional cyanide heap leach approach. The project area would comprise 214 unpatented mining claims and 11 patented claims, all of which are controlled by Alta. Approximately 4,300 acres lie within Alta's claim boundary. The mine pit would be expected to fill partially with inflow of groundwater and surface runoff to an equilibrium depth of approximately 90 feet, covering a surface area of approximately 3.4 acres. The operations plan for the mine project would extend approximately seven years, comprising five years of active mining operations followed by two years of continued ore leaching, heap detoxification and reclamation. The other alternative under consideration would involve the development of the access road west of Wadsworth and off the Pyramid Lake Paiute Reservation. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would employ approximately 60 workers during construction activities and 114 workers during its operational phase. The alternative access road alternative would eliminate mine-related traffic from State Route 447 through Wadsworth, eliminating risk of exposure of the population to potential hazardous materials spillage. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under Alta's proposed action, approximately 502 acres would be disturbed by project activities, of which approximately 165 acres have already been disturbed by mining operations or exploration activities. Following mining, approximately 99 acres of pit area would be left unreclaimed. Approximately 337 acres of natural communities, consisting primarily of Wyoming big sagebrush-bottlebrush squirreltail (142 acres), Wyoming big sagebrush-Utah juniper (124 acres), and Wyoming big sagebrush-desert needlegrass (50 acres) would be disturbed. One small seasonal seep in Frank Free Canyon would be disturbed. Removal and relocation of waste rock and ore would result in permanent modifications to the topography of the area as well as permanent removal of mineral resources (gold and silver). Surface drainage patterns would be altered and surface water discharge from Olinghouse would drop by four percent. Surface disturbances would exacerbate erosion and sedimentation in the area, and withdrawal of water from Dodge Flat for the project would result in aquifer drawdown. Approximately 403 acres of wildlife habitat would be lost temporarily and 99 acres would be displaced permanently. Temporary forage losses amounting to 19 animal unit months (AUMs) and permanent losses amounting to four AUMs would result. The waste rock dump would constitute the most obtrusive visual impact of the project, and project activities would raise noise levels in the area somewhat. Demand for housing would increase somewhat, but adequate housing is available within commuting distance of the proposed project. Risk of accidental spillage of hazardous waste would be present but low. The action alternative considered would increase soil disturbance to 521 acres and natural communities disturbance to 356 acres. Approximately 19 acres of habitat along the alternative access road would be disturbed for road widening and left unreclaimed.

AN - 36409737; 6564 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of the housing and administrative facility plan for the Shenandoah National Park, located in northwestern Virginia, is proposed. The national park was established in 1935, and most of the existing housing, offices, and maintenance facilities were built before World War II. Some facilities with cultural and historical significance are in need of significant repairs or rehabilitation. Some 32 trailers were brought into the park more than 20 years ago as temporary housing and office space, and many of these trailers are still in use. Some of the trailers are in poor condition, and it is impossible to keep them heated and rodent-free. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative C), under which all trailers would be removed but no facilities would be upgraded or rehabilitated, were considered in the draft EIS of July 1996. The balanced alternative (Alternative A, the National Park Service's preferred alternative) would alter the way the park conducts business, with a transition from a required occupancy policy to a required presence policy to deal with emergency response in most areas of the park. Housing needs would be met by a combination of renovating existing housing at headquarters for seasonal employees and leasing housing in neighboring communities. All trailers would be removed. A total of 13 housing units would be built in the park, rather than 93 as proposed in a general management plan prepared in 1983. The construction would be limited to previously disturbed areas. The integrated alternative (Alternative B) would involve removing all trailers and moving offices, equipment caches, housing, and maintenance shops into surrounding communities. This final EIS, which is issued in an abbreviated format, contains corrections and revisions to the draft EIS as well as public comments and agency responses. The draft EIS has been reissued as a companion document. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred development plan would meet the urgent needs of the park for adequate office space, housing, and maintenance facilities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Minor wildlife habitat disruption would result from the development. A slight incremental increase in air pollution would result from increased travel to work by employees living outside the park area.

Preparation date: August 26, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SAN FRANCISCO MARITIME NATIONAL HISTORIC PARK, SAN FRANCISCO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36402321; 6561 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the use and preservation of the 35-acre San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park, located along the northern waterfront in San Francisco, California, is proposed. The park, which was established in 1988, consists of three areas regularly open to the public: the Aquatic Park Bathhouse (museum exhibit facility), the Hyde Street Pier and historic vessels, and building E at Fort Mason (park library and archives). The boundary of the park also encompasses the Aquatic Park Historic District immediately west of the Fisherman's Wharf Area. The Aquatic Park Bathhouse building, completed in 1939, is the centerpiece of the historic district. A critical issue in the park's long-term viability is the timely and adequate funding needed to rehabilitate, preserve, and maintain the historic vessels moored at the Hyde Street pier. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative C), were considered in the draft EIS of June 1996. The proposed action (Alternative A) would emphasize the preservation and maintenance of the fleet of historic vessels, small vessels, a library, and archival materials. The steam schooner Wapama, a national historic landmark, would not be preserved and eventually dismantled, but six other major vessels would be maintained and preserved. The park would pursue multiple strategies for major ship restoration, such as continued use of commercial shipyards and appropriate agreements with Bay Area dry dock facilities. The Haslett Warehouse would be rehabilitated to accommodate research and interpretive uses. Efforts would be made to provide a 19th century theme to the area. The intersection of Hyde and Jefferson streets would be redesigned to enhance pedestrian access and visibility of the pier. Under Alternative B, the preservation strategy would be similar to the proposed action, except the visitor contact facility would be located in the former bookstore and the intersection of Hyde and Jefferson streets would be developed further as an expanded and permanent pedestrian plaza. This final EIS, which is issued in abbreviated format, contains corrections and revisions to the draft EIS as well as public comments and agency responses. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, existing park facilities would be enhanced to display and preserve the historic vessels and park's research materials. The rehabilitation of the Haslett Warehouse would help preserve one of San Francisco's early 20th century brick warehouse buildings. Visitor safety and interpretive services would be improved. Without the implementation of any resource development, the park's resources would degrade over the long term. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The eventual dismantling of the Wapama would adversely affect a national historic landmark. LEGAL MANDATES: National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended (16 U.S.C. 470 et seq.), and Public Law 100-348 of 1988.

Preparation date: August 25, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - KEWEENAW NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK GENERAL MANAGEMENT PLAN, HOUGHTON COUNTY, MICHIGAN. AN - 36389198; 6552 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Keweenaw National Historical Park in Houghton County, Michigan, is proposed. The national park was established in 1992 to commemorate the era of copper mining on the Keweenaw Peninsula. The park is located in the center of the Keweenaw, a small peninsula that extends about 100 miles into Lake Superior from Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The park consists of two units, Quincy and Calumet. The 1,120-acre Quincy unit, which is located just northeast of the community of Hancock and adjacent to Portage Lake, includes the remnant structures and mines of the Quincy Mining Company and its associated historic landscape. The 750-acre Calumet unit includes the historic mining community of Calumet, which is located about 11 miles north of Hancock, Michigan, and about 4 miles from Lake Superior. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative 2 would assign management of interpretive programs to local government, business, and nonprofit groups; the National Park Service (NPS) would provide support services and financial assistance for preserving the historic character of the area. Under Alternative 3, NPS would establish a visible and traditional presence in the core industrial areas in each unit. Other significant properties within the core areas would be purchased and restored as funding and staffing levels permit. Alternative 4, the preferred alternative, combines elements of Alternatives 3 and 4. The NPS would be the primary administrative agency, but would work in partnership with local groups. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under each of the action alternatives, cultural resources would be identified and protected, and interpretive sites would educate the public about their significance. The preferred alternative would provide a high level of resource protection, interpretation, and visitor services. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would take many years to fully implement; during that time there is a high potential that some significant resources could be lost due to neglect. The increase in visitation would cause wear on historic resources, contribute more traffic and congestion, and diminish the quiet, small-town atmosphere of the sites.

Preparation date: August 19, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - POWDER RIVER COAL LEASE APPLICATION AND THE THUNDERCLOUD COAL LEASE, CAMPBELL COUNTY, WYOMING. AN - 16338109; 6540 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of two competitive lease sales of 7,420 acres of federal coal lands containing an estimated 942 million tons of coal, subject to the standard coal lease stipulations and to special coal lease stipulations developed for the Wyoming Powder River Basin (PRB), located in southeastern Campbell County, Wyoming, is proposed. The Powder River Lease-by-Application (LBA) Tract, as applied for by Powder River Coal Company, includes approximately 4,020 acres containing an estimated 515 million tons of coal. The applicant operates the adjacent North Antelope and Rochelle mines. The Thundercloud LBA Tract, which is located nine miles north of Powder River LBA, was applied for by Kerr-McGee Coal Company, the operator of the adjacent Jacobs Ranch Mine. The Thundercloud Tract comprises 3,400 acres and contains an estimated 427 million tons of coal. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would hold two separate competitive coal lease sales and issue maintenance leases to the successful bidders (either the applicants or other adjacent existing mines). The Powder River LBA Tract would be mined as integral part of the North Antelope Mine and the Rochelle Mine. The facilities and infrastructure would be the same as those specified in the existing mining permit. There are three crushing facilities within the permit area that together provide the capacity to produce at the permitted level. The Powder River LBA Tract would extend the life of existing mining operations by 7.5 years. Similarly, the Thundercloud LBA Tract would extend the life of the existing Jacobs Ranch Mine by 11 years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the two LBA tracts would be attractive to other potential bidders, minimizing the risk of bypassing federal coal that would then become economically unrecoverable and enhancing the fair market value of remaining unleased federal coal in the area. The two mining operations would employ 320 persons. The life of existing mines would be extended. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The major adverse environmental consequences on land use would be the reduction of livestock grazing, the loss of wildlife habitat, the curtailment of oil and gas development, and short-term loss of public land available for recreational activities on about 8,375 acres during active mining. Wildlife, particularly big game, and livestock (cattle and sheep) use would be displaced while the tract was mined and reclaimed. Noise levels would be increased considerably by mining activities such as blasting, crushing, conveying, rail car loading, scraping, and hauling. Changes in runoff and sediment discharges would occur during mining of the LBA tracts, and erosion rates could reach high levels on the disturbed areas because of vegetation removal.

Preparation date: August 11, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - BEATY BUTTE ALLOTMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN, LAKEVIEW RESOURCE AREA, HARNEY AND LAKE COUNTIES, OREGON. AN - 16345237; 6536 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of an allotment management plan in the Beaty Butte allotment within the Lakeview Resource Area in south-central Oregon is proposed. The allotment consists of 506,985 acres of public land and 37,380 acres of private land. Nearly 56 percent of the public land is located in Harney County, and the remaining 46 percent is located in Lake County. The Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge borders the northwest portion of the allotment, and Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge borders the southern portion. Presently the allotment is utilized for grazing all season long, although some attempts to rotate grazing have occurred since the 1980s. A management plan would formalize a grazing management system, implement a monitoring and evaluation system, and identify projects that would achieve management goals. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 4) would involve implementing an eleven-pasture, two-herd modified rest-rotation grazing system requiring about 39.5 miles of fence, one spring development, seven miles of pipeline, two new reservoirs, three rebuilt reservoirs, 79,000 acres of prescribed fire and natural revegetation, and 6,500 acres of prescribed fire and reseeding. The management of the Shirk Ranch and other isolated parcels within and outside the allotment (a total of 2,040 acres) would be shifted from the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Portions of the existing Jack Lake pasture (7,870 acres) would be managed by the FWS, and livestock grazing would be eliminated on 17,070 acres. The estimated implementation costs are $0.88 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The allotment management plan would protect the ecological stability of the area and provide special protection for riparian and wetland areas. Prescribed burning would benefit area ground cover. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The fencing would restrict movement of wild horses, bighorn sheep, and other wildlife, and would limit access to local waterholes.

AN - 16338919; 6533 AB - PURPOSE: The leasing of land for oil and gas exploration and development in the Helena National Forest and the Elkhorn Mountain portion of the Deerlodge National Forest, located in Montana, is proposed. The 853,200-acre study area is located within all or part of three distinct mountain ranges: the Big Belts, the Elkhorns, and the Continental Divide of the Northern Rockies. The area contains many diverse habitats ranging from the Missouri River bottoms to alpine mountain peaks. Issues of concern include the effects of leasing on big game; inventoried roadless areas and wilderness areas; biological diversity; threatened, endangered, and sensitive species; recreation opportunities and experience; cultural resources; socioeconomic conditions; and soil, air, and water. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 2), were considered in the final EIS of April 1995. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 7) certain restrictions would be placed on oil and gas development in order to protect grizzly bear habitat. Of the 853,200 acres legally available for leasing, a no-surface-occupancy (NSO) stipulation would apply to 460,000 acres; a controlled-surface-use stipulation or a timing limitation would apply to 364,400 acres; and standard lease terms of the Bureau of Land Management would apply to 28,800 acres. In addition to protecting grizzly bear habitat, the NSO stipulations would protect wild and scenic rivers, watersheds containing cutthroat trout populations, and sensitive soils from both mineral development and road construction. The estimated payroll for drilling four wildcat wells is $4.7 million. This draft supplement to the final EIS analyzes the cumulative effects of oil and gas leasing, including the effects on four distinct landscape areas within the project area. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Over the 15-year period which is considered in this final EIS, the projected lease revenues would be $8.0 million. The construction and drilling activities would provide temporary employment opportunities for the local work force. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Air pollutant emissions from gas-driven field engines and emergency gas flaring could be significant in the area. Soil, vegetation, and wildlife and livestock forage in the immediate drilling areas would be disturbed. Any development activity in a roadless area would compromise the area's wilderness character and adversely affect its future status as a designated wilderness area.

Two major questions were addressed: (1) Are risk analyses producing consistent results from the various teams; (2) Can the risk analysis probability results be baselined or calibrated to historical results; As the work progressed, it became apparent that the work might provide some additional benefits, particularly for initial screening analyses. The Reclamation inventory of dams was classified using the system available at the time of the work. The work in this report could possibly serve as an initial event probability estimate based on historical failure and accident occurrences.

AN - 16342645; 6521 AB - PURPOSE: The drilling of natural gas wells by Amoco Production Company, McMurry Oil Company, Snyder Oil Corporation, Western Gas Resources, and other companies on lease area located in south-central Sublette County in western Wyoming, is proposed. The 59,600-acre Jonah II Project Area consists of 56,400 acres of federal lands, 2,560 acres of state lands, and 640 acres of private lands. Approximately 49 well locations and associated access roads and pipelines currently exist or have been authorized within the project area. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the applicants would be allowed to construct, drill, operate, and reclaim 450 well sites on variable spacing patterns within the project area, beginning in 1997 and continuing for 40 to 50 years. Additional construction would include 180 miles of roads with adjacent pipelines, 17 miles of improvement to the Burma and Luman Roads, four compressor stations, 10 water wells, and 22 miles of sales pipeline outside the project area. Field development would require 10 to 15 years, with approximately 30 wells being drilled per year. Each drill rig would be operated on a 24-hour basis and require three crews of seven people. The other two action alternatives (Alternative A and Alternative B) would involve the development of 420 and 327 well sites, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: By developing domestic reserves of clean-burning natural gas, the U.S. could reduce dependence on foreign sources of energy and maintain an adequate and stable supply of fuel to maintain economic well-being. Federal royalty payments during the first ten years of operation would be $129.0 million. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, a total of 2,927 acres would be disturbed. Although air quality would be adversely affected within the project area, the effects would be significant in the nearby Bridger Wilderness Area, in which adverse visibility impacts could exceed the Forest Service's limits of acceptable change.

AN - 16341718; 6522 AB - PURPOSE: The preservation of a historic trail along the west coast of Hawaii Island, the southernmost island of Hawaii, is proposed. The Ala Kahakai follows a 175-mile portion of a prehistoric facility, the ala loa or long trail, parallel to the seacoast extending from Upolu Point on the north tip of Hawaii Island down the west coast of the island around Ka Lae to the east boundary of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park at the ancient shoreline temple known as Wahaula Heiau. In prehistoric times, the ala loa circuited the entire island and linked villages to one another. The Ala Kahakai combines surviving elements of the prehistoric ala loa with segments of later historic government trails that developed parallel to the prehistoric route or were constructed over original trail segments, and with more recent pathways and roads. Significant sections of the ancient trail remain intact. In some locations where it has been eroded away by ocean, covered by lava flows, or damaged by vegetative overgrowth or human actions, the potential exists for reconstruction using traditional building methods. The establishment of recreational trail links would create a continuous trail. Four Alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative B would provide National Park Service administration of the trail, which over time would become continuous on the ground. Alternative C would involve state management of the trail. Alternative D would be similar to Alternative B, except that the trail would not be continuous, and only intact prehistoric and historic sections would be protected. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Each of the action alternatives would seek to preserve the trail and inform the public of its historic and cultural significance. Trail design, construction, and maintenance would emphasize or reflect safety, resource protection, and funding availability. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Regardless of the alternative selected, additional use of the trail would increase the potential for damage to archaeological sites and other cultural resources along the trail.

AN - 36409698; 6513 AB - PURPOSE: The authorization for the Bureau of Land Management to lease Forest Service lands for phosphate mining within the Caribou National Forest, located in southeastern Idaho, is proposed. The lease tracts are called the Dairy Sincline Tract (containing about 3,259 acres) and the Manning Creek Tract (containing about 1,920 acres). Two mining companies, the J.R. Simplot Company and Nu-West Industries, have requested that these tracts be offered for competitive bid because phosphate resources have been depleted within existing mines in the area. Issues identified during the scoping process include the likely effects of mining on roadless areas, backcountry recreation and hunting, wildlife habitat, wetlands and other water resources, range livestock, area social and economic conditions, and treaty rights of the Shoshone-Bannock tribes. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, two development scenarios are being considered for the Manning Creek Tract. Under one scenario, the mine would be developed as a continuation of the existing Smoky Canyon Mine. The transportation of the ore from the mine would rely on the existing road system. Under the other scenario, the mine would be developed independently of the Smoky Canyon Mine. The oremilling and processing facilities would be located in the lease tract area, and ore would be transported to the west in a slurry line. Four pits and ten waste rock storage areas would be developed within the Dairy Syncline Tract, and the ore would be transported either by truck or by rail line. The Manning Creek Tract would produce an estimated 30 million tons of ore over a 15-year period, and the Dairy Syncline Tract would produce an estimated 20 million tons over ten years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would ensure a steady supply of phosphate, which along with nitrogen, potassium, and other minerals is vital to plant growth. In both its elemental state and combined chemical form, the mineral is widely used in agriculture and industry. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The mining and development activities would adversely affect the natural integrity, remoteness, and wilderness character of the Dry Ridge, Huckleberry Basin, and Sage Creek roadless areas. Up to 53 acres of old-growth forest would be adversely affected. Exposed soil resulting from road construction and exploration activities would lead to erosion and some increase in stream sedimentation. Over 5,000 acres of grazing lands would be lost until such time as reclamation were complete. LEGAL MANDATES: Mineral Leasing Act of 1920, amendments (P.L. 94-377).

AN - 16338768; 6496 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a watershed program for mitigating impacts on anadromous and resident fish habitat from development of the Federal Columbia River Power System in the Pacific Northwest region is proposed. The Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) is responsible for funding projects submitted to and recommended by the Northwest Power Planning Council. Project proposals are developed by Indian tribes, state agencies, property owners, private conservation groups, and federal agencies. Project proposals are required to consider the environmental impacts of in-channel modifications and fish habitat improvement structures; riparian restoration and other vegetation treatment techniques; agricultural management techniques for crop irrigation, animal facilities, and grazing; road, forest, urban area, and recreation management techniques; and similar watershed conservation actions. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this final EIS. The proposed action would develop a set of guidelines that would enable BPA to oversee these projects consistently across projects, jurisdictions, and ecosystems. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 6), BPA would take a balanced approach to program administration by trying to meet the aquatic habitat objectives of watershed management projects, achieve cost and administrative efficiencies, and protecting other environmental resources. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, BPA would support a wide range of actions to support fisheries, fish habitat, and aquatic ecosystems in the Columbia River Basin. Habitat improvements would be moderate in quantity, but high in quality and sustained benefits. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activities would result in soil disturbance and would contribute sediments to adjacent streams during the implementation phase. Some loss of vegetation and wildlife habitat would occur as well. LEGAL MANDATES: Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act of 1980 (P.L. 96-501).

AN - 16352835; 6492 AB - PURPOSE: The development of a geothermal wellfield and the construction and operation of a 49.9-megawatt (MW) (gross) geothermal power plant on federal land administered by the Klamath and Modoc national forests, located in northern California, are proposed. The project would be located within the Glass Mountain Known Geothermal Resource Area, one of the few remaining undeveloped geothermal areas in North America. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 7), are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed project would involve production of geothermal fluids (hot water and steam) from an underground geothermal reservoir. The fluids would flow under pressure up and out of the initial nine to eleven two-phase production wells that would be drilled at the five production well pad sites. The fluids would be transported via surface pipelines from the wells to the dual-flash geothermal power plant, where the steam would be directed to two steam-turbine-driven generators. The turbine exhaust steam would be condensed and pumped into a cooling tower. Spent brine and condensate would be pumped through surface pipelines to the three proposed injection wells for injection to the subsurface geothermal reservoir. Roads would be constructed or improved to provide access to the well pad sites and power plant. In addition, a temporary hand-laid water pipeline would be installed from the Arnica Sink area to the wellfield to provide water for well-drilling activities during the first construction season. Electricity generated by the power plant would be transmitted by a 23.4-mile transmission line to a substation owned by the Bonneville Power Administration. The construction of the project would take three years; it would have an expected operating life of 45 years. Five additional alternatives are also under consideration and would differ primarily in regard to the route followed by the transmission line. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The geothermal energy produced would constitute a clean, domestic source of power. In addition to being a pollution-free source of power, geothermal resources would provide a means of reducing the nation's dependence on foreign sources of energy. The project would provide 19 permanent jobs and local revenue from royalties and property taxes. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the project, industrial development would be brought to an area of Forest Service land currently used for forestry, fuelwood gathering, and dispersed recreation. The wilderness character of the North Paulina Roadless Area would be disturbed. Up to 388.5 acres of vegetation and wildlife habitat would be lost or modified as a result of planned construction; some isolated adverse effects on threatened and endangered species could occur. Some visual resources would be adversely affected. The project would potentially interfere with tribal religious practices in the Medicine Lake Highlands.

AN - 16341677; 6494 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a wetlands park in the east Las Vegas Valley in Clark County, Nevada, is proposed. The project area is located along a seven-mile reach of Las Vegas Wash, upstream of Lake Las Vegas. As the terminal outlet of the Las Vegas drainage basin, the Las Vegas Wash flows from west to east and empties into Las Vegas Bay in Lake Mead. While flows in the upper reaches of the wash are intermittent and occur primarily during storm events, treated wastewater discharges in the lower reaches provide perennial flows to Lake Mead. The increase in wastewater flows and stormwater runoff have increased the risk of flash floods in the area and accelerated erosion and channelization in the wash. Erosion results in the deposition of large amounts of sediment in Lake Mead and significantly reduces wetland vegetation within the wash. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. All of the action alternatives would involve the placement of up to 15 erosion control structures upstream of Lake Las Vegas. Under the preferred alternative, a wetlands park would be established as an environmental and recreational resource emphasizing habitat enhancement, recreational facilities, and educational facilities for visitors. This alternative would involve the development of a five-acre open body of water behind one erosion control structure; the establishment of riparian vegetation; and the construction of 10,000-square-foot visitor center, an environmental education camp and research center, and a one-way scenic drive along the south side of the wash. A multiple-use trail would run along both sides of the wash. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would control erosion in Las Vegas Wash, protect hundreds of acres of remaining wetlands, and provide a scenic recreational area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction activity and increased visitor traffic once the park is operational would result in increased noise levels and a slight degradation of air quality.

AN - 16353263; 6488 AB - PURPOSE: The diversion of water from the American and Sacramento rivers for consumptive use within portions of Sacramento County, California, is proposed. At present the Sacramento County Water Agency (SCWA), which provides wholesale water to the Sacramento County Maintenance District, is completely dependent on groundwater, but groundwater levels are declining in certain portions of the county. Should the situation worsen, these areas would experience water quality degradation and supply shortages. The proposed action would involve implementing separate water supply plans for the SCWA, the San Juan Water District (SJWD), and the city of Folsom. The proposed plan for the SCWA would involve the diversion and delivery of up to 22,000 acre-feet of water annually from the Sacramento River at a location at or near the Sacramento River Water Treatment Plant, at a new water treatment plant near Freeport, and/or at a new intake on the American River near Interstate 5. This water would be used for the Laguna-Elk Grove area, which is undergoing significant urban development. The plan for the city of Folsom would involve the diversion and delivery of up to 7,000 acre-feet annually from Folsom Dam and Reservoir; the water would be delivered under a subcontract with the SCWA. The plan for the SJWD, which serves the northeast part of the county, would involve the diversion and delivery of up to 13,000 acre-feet annually from the Folsom Dam and Reservoir. A range of alternatives for each of the affected jurisdictions is also under consideration in this draft EIS. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would develop a reliable and demand-responsive water supply system for Sacramento County. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Contract withdrawals from the two rivers could adversely affect some aquatic species, including the winter-run chinook salmon and delta smelt. In addition, steelhead could be adversely affected from increased water temperatures in the lower American River during the summer and early fall months. As a mitigating measure, the Bureau of Reclamation would install a temperature control device at the raw water intake at Folsom Dam. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 101-514.

AN - 16356232; 6486 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan for managing 123,750 acres of public land and allocating resources along 90 miles of the Rio Grande River and some of its tributaries, located in south-central Colorado and north-central New Mexico, is proposed. The boundary of the planning area roughly follows the rim of the Rio Grande Gorge except where special management areas and areas of critical environmental concern (ACEC) extend beyond the riparian area. Focal issues identified in the scoping process include protection of the wild and scenic qualities of the Rio Grande and its tributaries; prevention of conflicts between recreationists, ranchers, and other resource users; and protection of soils, vegetation, water quality, wildlife habitat, cultural resources, and private property rights. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative D) would seek to maintain and enhance ecosystem health while optimizing recreational opportunities and other resource uses. It would designate two new ACECs to protect wildlife and scenic quality, exclude 58,765 acres from grazing, withdraw 73,820 acres from mineral entry, recommend 7.3 miles of the Rio Grande Bosque as a recreational river and 5.0 miles of the Rio Embudo as a wild river, use prescribed burning and other treatments on 13,703 acres to improve vegetation and biological diversity, and limit animal unit months to 2,418 in Colorado and 1,224 in New Mexico. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would help preserve to the scenic quality and biodiversity of the Rio Grande ecosystem. Vegetative improvements would occur throughout 11 percent of the planning area. Preservation of additional segments of area rivers in a free-flowing form would benefit recreationists. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The mineral restrictions would adversely affect the local industry; for example, a planned copper mine in the Copper Hill unit would not be developed.

AN - 36402749; 6477 AB - PURPOSE: The withdrawal of public lands around the Naval Air Station (NAS) Fallon range training complex, located in western Nevada, is proposed. The NAS facility is located in the Lahontan Valley, approximately 70 miles east of the city of Reno and six miles southeast of the city of Fallon. NAS Fallon is the only Navy facility that can support, train, and house an entire carrier air wing for initial and refresher integrated strike training. The Naval Strike and Air Warfare Center is stationed at the NAS; the mission of the center is to develop realistic combat training scenarios for military aircrews flying high-performance jet aircraft and helicopters and using state-of-the-art military equipment and tactics. The center uses four geographically separate training ranges (B-16, B-17, B-19, B-20), three air traffic control gap filler radar stations, a tactical aircrew combat training system, and an electronic warfare system. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the three action alternatives, between 127,365 and 189,080 acres of public land around training ranges B-16, B-17, B-19, the shoal site, and the Dixie Valley area would be withdrawn. The withdrawn lands would be classified under one of two land use categories. Category A lands would be closed to public use because these lands contain a potential ordnance hazard. Category B lands would be open for public use under Navy oversight. Approximately 40,280 acres adjoining the three training ranges would be classified as Category A. The preferred alternative (Alternative II) would withdraw a total of 127,365 acres. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The land withdrawal would enable the Navy to improve its strategic combat training and would protect the public from operational hazards. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The withdrawal would adversely affect recreationists, ranchers, and mining interests. These activities would not be permitted on Category A lands.

AN - 16343348; 6461 AB - PURPOSE: The replacement by the Ute Water Conservancy District of the existing water supply pipeline serving Mesa County with a larger diameter pipeline, located in western Colorado, is proposed. Most of the existing pipeline route consists of rugged river canyons formed by the Colorado River and Plateau Creek. The 2.5-mile portion of the pipeline in De Beque Canyon is located on the dry beaches, side slopes, and mesa tops along the north canyon wall paralleling Interstate 70. The portion in Plateau Creek Canyon is located along the canyon bottom for a total length of 13 miles. The existing 24-inch-diameter pipeline is deteriorating, lacks adequate hydraulic capacity to meet peak-day demands, and is subject to failure from landslides and stream erosion. The pipeline is the water district's sole conduit for conveying water to its treatment plant. The water district has a right-of-way (ROW) to operate and maintain the pipeline on public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management. A new permit would be necessary if the replacement pipeline were outside the existing ROW. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the applicant's preferred alternative (Alternative A), the replacement pipeline would be 15.4 miles long and include about 11.3 miles of 48-inch pipe and 4.1 miles of 54-inch pipe. This alternative would generally follow the existing ROW although the alignment within Plateau Canyon would be modified in order to avoid geologic hazards and to minimize impacts to other canyon resources. A new tunnel section within the canyon would be constructed, beginning about 3.4 miles up gradient of the treatment plant near the mouth of Plateau Creek. The new tunnel would link the replacement pipeline segment in the Plateau Creek corridor with the segment parallel to Interstate 70. Most of the new tunnel alignment is on public lands, although the eastern end is located on private property. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The construction of a replacement pipeline would ensure a reliable water supply for the 60,000 Mesa County residents. If water delivery to the treatment plant were not increased, the county would face a water crisis within the next 20 years. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would adversely affect 7.5 acres of wetlands and would result in 13 stream crossings. The depletion of the Colorado River by 3,200 acre-feet per year would adversely affect endangered Colorado River fish.

AN - 36402678; 6453 AB - PURPOSE: The expansion of gold mining operations by Florida Canyon Mining, Inc., within the Imlay Mining District in northwestern Nevada, is proposed. The existing mine is located on public and private lands adjacent to Interstate 80, approximately 35 miles northeast of Lovelock and 38 miles southwest of Winnemucca, Nevada. The applicant has been operating the mine since 1986, although mining in the project area dates back to the 1860s. To date, approximately 1,259 acres have been disturbed. Current mine facilities consist of a series of connected pits, waste rock dump areas, a heap leach pad and associated processing plant, access and haul roads, and ancillary facilities. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would involve the expanding the open pits by 88 acres and deepening them by 10 to 60 feet, developing a new leach pad to the south and expanding the existing ones, and building new haul roads, solution ponds, sediment ponds, exploration drill sites, diversion channels, and water supply pipelines. Following a 12-month development period, the mine would enter active production, producing 147 million tons of waste rock, 60 million tons of spent ore, and 700,000 ounces of gold and 700,000 ounces of silver. Mine operations would continue for five years until 2002 and reclamation would continue until 2010. The other action alternative would expand the existing heap leach pad to the north rather than constructing a new leach pad to the south. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would extend the operating life of the mine by five years. The mine currently employs 328 operations personnel; construction activities would require the hiring of 43 additional persons. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would disturb 860 acres of wildlife habitat; 19 acres would not be reclaimed.

AN - 36411225; 6449 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan to effectively serve visitor needs and to preserve, protect, and interpret the cultural and natural resources of the Stones River National Battlefield Park, located in central Tennessee, is proposed. The Stones River National Battlefield Park is located on the western edge of the city of Murfreesboro, approximately 30 miles southeast of Nashville. Significant battle actions occurred over 4,000 acres in the area of Murfreesboro over a three-day period from December 31, 1862 to January 2, 1863. The battle played a pivotal role in the Union's western campaign, which culminated in the March to the Sea. The park was established as a national military park and was transferred to the National Park Service in 1933. Presently, the park encompasses 709 acres, including 674 acres of the original battlefield. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 3), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative 1), the boundaries of the park would be increased by 759 acres in order to preserve the historic character of the battlefield. The visitor center would be renovated; new and expanded interpretive media would be added; and a self-guided, 7.6-mile-long auto tour would be developed, with 12 interpretive stops so that visitors could view all six major battle action zones. The estimated construction costs are $6.4 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Doubling the size of the park would help to preserve the historic character of the battlefield, preventing residential and commercial development from detracting from the park's historic significance. The proposed action would also provide a historic context in which to foster public understanding of military events and strategy and broader living conditions of the Murfreesboro area at the time of the Civil War. It would also promote the conservation of historic resources not currently in park ownership, make all units easily available and accessible to visitors, and interpret each site in its historic context. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction of the tour road would adversely affect the historic character and could disturb archaeological resources. Traffic would increase along tour routes due to increased visitation. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 100-205 and Public Law 102-225.

Preparation date: June 11, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SOLEDAD MOUNTAIN PROJECT, MOJAVE, KERN COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36406276; 6436 AB - PURPOSE: The development of a surface open-pit gold and silver mine on public and private lands southwest of the town of Mojave, California, is proposed. The 1,690-acre project area is located on and around Soledad Mountain, west of State Route 14. Precious metals have been mined from Soledad Mountain since gold was discovered there in 1894. The project applicant, the Golden Queen Mining Company, proposes to operate the mine 24 hours per day, seven days per week for up to 15 years. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, construction activities would include preparing the initial open pit production area, building haulage and access roads to the open pit area, leveling the crushing and sizing area and installing the equipment, grading the heap leach pad and installing the liner and leak detection system, creating growth media stockpiles, establishing water wells, erecting the process facility, grading the office and parking areas, and constructing the necessary buildings. Mining operations would include drilling of blastholes, blasting, loading haul trucks, hauling ore to the processing area, and hauling overburden to the overburden piles. Gold and silver would be recovered from the ore by cyanide heap leaching. The project would require the use of an average of 750 gallons of water per minute, pumped from up to three water supply wells. The action alternatives would involve changing the mining and processing rates, reducing the project size to lessen its impact on topography and visual resources, and backfilling the open depression after the mine has been fully excavated. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would benefit the local economy, employing approximately 230 people and providing associated taxes and revenues. During the construction period, $13.7 million would flow into the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Mine operation would disturb approximately 930 acres of vegetation. Loss of wildlife habitat and displacement of wildlife from affected habitat would occur. Visual resources would be adversely affected by mining activities. Even after reclamation is complete, the mine highwalls, heap leach piles, and overburden piles would still be visible. Four historic sites in the project have been identified as having scientific and historic value. Salvage excavation and architectural recording would be performed at each site prior to construction.

AN - 15226029; 6435 AB - PURPOSE: The adoption of regional guidelines for rangeland health and livestock grazing management for lands administered by the California office of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), exclusive of the California Desert District in California, is proposed. The guidelines would reflect revised regulations for livestock grazing on BLM lands that became effective in August 1995 (43 CFR 4100). The proposed action would incorporate the revised guidelines in BLM land use plans covering 5.7 million acres of public lands in California and northwestern Nevada, of which about 4.4 million acres are grazed. These lands include 705 grazing allotments and produce 340,499 animal unit months (AUMs) of livestock forage. The standards for the grazing areas would specify minimum required conditions for watershed function, nutrient cycling, water quality, endangered and threatened species protection, and habitat conditions for other wildlife. The guidelines would specify management practices or methods for meeting the standards. Guideline areas would include the amount and quality of vegetative ground cover and soil organisms, permeability of subsurface soil, riparian wetlands functions, stream channel morphology, conditions for seedling establishment, and the prevention of the spread of noxious weeds. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 3), are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (Alternative 1) would consist of the three different sets of standards and guidelines developed by Bakersfield, Ukiah, and Susanville resource advisory councils. The standards and guidelines of each research council would be used to regulate rangeland within each resource council's jurisdiction. Of the 705 allotments affected by the proposed action, 47 would experience a reduction in livestock use, 35 would be excluded from livestock use, 49 would require new water developments, and 54 would require vegetative treatment and weed control. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed plan, the implementation would accelerate the improvement of vegetative cover and wildlife habitat on public rangelands. Hydrologic function of riparian areas and water quality would improve. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Because the proposed grazing adjustments could result in a reduction of 16,267 AUMs, some economic hardship would be experienced by ranchers. Their estimated five-year income loss would be $837,417. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) and Rangeland Improvement Act of 1978 (P.L. 95-514).

The Short-Run Economic Cost of Environmental Constraints on Hydropower Operations AN - 17162157; 4462976 AB - In October of 1995, the Secretary of the Interior announced that Glen Canyon Dam would be operated under the Modified Low Fluctuating Flow (MLFF) criteria to protect downstream archeological, cultural, aquatic and riparian resources. Although the annual and monthly amounts of water released downstream remain the same, MLFF imposes a unique and complex set of constraints on hourly and daily hydropower operations. These constraints include restrictions on ramp rates (hourly rate of change in release), minimum flows, maximum flows, and the daily change in flow. In addition, a key component of MLFF operations is adaptive management which establishes a framework of research and monitoring on which future changes in operation will be based. Consequently, MLFF operations are not static and variants of these hourly constraints may be contemplated in the future. This paper summarizes the environmental concerns which led to MLFF, reviews some pertinent electric power concepts, and describes current institutional and market conditions. A generalized method for simulating and valuing hourly hydroelectric generation under various operational constraints is then introduced.

Many of these areas, particularly in south Louisiana, are being invaded by exotic and undesirable species of trees that are less able to survive hurricane-force winds and therefore provide less protection to adjacent areas. Greenhouse and field studies are underway to assess the feasibility of developing saltwater-tolerant baldcypress strains. Such research may make it possible to restore baldcypress stands in areas impacted by increased salinity and flooding.

The impacts of sea level rise scenarios on wetland habitats in St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge were examined. Model analysis shows that a large landbase will be converted from marsh to open water and forest to marsh under conditions of sea level rise. However, due to the slope of the landform, coastal marsh is predicted to increase slightly in land cover as it migrates upslope and replaces existing forest habitat. A major portion of coastal pinelands that stand at or below the 1-m contour will be lost given a projected sea level increase of 0.95 m over the next century.

Sea level can increase relative to the marsh surface through increases in the volume of the ocean, or by marsh surface subsidence due to soil compaction. The potential for coastal marsh submergence is best determined by calculating elevation deficits rather than accretion deficits. Trends in elevation of coastal marsh can not be extrapolated among sites, and site-specific data are needed to develop appropriate management practices.

AN - 36411277; 6434 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of an ecosystem-management plan for the interior Columbia River Basin, the upper Klamath Basin, and the northern Great Basin, located to the east of the crest of the Cascade Range in Oregon and Washington, is proposed. The project area includes 30 million acres of public land administered by the Forest Service or the Bureau of Land Management. Forestland and rangeland in the project area are highly diverse, ranging from moist areas near the crest of the Cascades to dry areas in the northern Great Basin. Aquatic ecosystems in the area have been adversely affected by water diversions and impoundments, road construction, vegetation alteration, and improper livestock grazing. The major issues addressed by the plan include forest and rangeland health, listing the Snake River salmon as endangered, listing the steelhead trout and bull trout as endangered or threatened, stimulating economic growth of rural communities, protecting species associated with old growth habitat, and maintaining treaty and trust responsibilities to American Indian tribes. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 4) would emphasize the restoration of forest, rangeland, and watershed health through active management. These management actions would be designed to produce economic benefits whenever practical. Within a ten-year period, forestland management would include timber harvesting on up to 1.3 million acres, commercial thinning on 1.0 million acres, prescribed burning on 1.9 million acres, and watershed restoration on 820,000 acres. On rangelands, livestock management activities would occur on up to 2.4 million acres, rangeland improvements on 1.3 million acres, prescribed burning on 475,000 acres, and riparian restoration on 125,000 acres. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would take coordinated approach toward restoring the long-term health of the ecosystem and supporting the economic and social needs of residents. It would be the most responsive of all of the alternatives considered to tribal rights and interests. It would provide high levels of recreation activity and livestock production, and moderately high levels of timber volume compared to the other alternatives. In addition, the preferred alternative would be one of the most effective in moving forest conditions to a more desirable pattern of structural stages and composition. It would provide long-term resilience to such stresses as wildfire, insects, disease, and noxious weeds. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Timber harvesting, road construction, and related economic activities would disturb the soil and vegetative cover, disrupt wildlife habitats and aquatic species, and degrade air, water, and visual qualities.

Preparation date: May 30, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - STANDARDS FOR RANGELAND HEALTH AND GUIDELINES FOR LIVESTOCK GRAZING MANAGEMENT ON BLM-ADMINISTERED LANDS, MONTANA, NORTH DAKOTA, AND SOUTH DAKOTA. AN - 36405854; 6425 AB - PURPOSE: The adoption of regional guidelines for rangeland health and livestock grazing management for lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) east of the Continental Divide in Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota, is proposed. The guidelines would reflect revised regulations for livestock grazing on BLM lands that became effective in August 1995 (43 CFR 4100). The proposed action is to incorporate the revised guidelines in ten BLM land use plans covering 8.4 million acres of the project area. Land use plans affected by this action would include Big Dry, Billings, Dillon, Headwaters, Judith-Valley-Phillips, North Dakota, Powder River, South Dakota, and West HiLine. A draft supplement to the draft EIS of October 1996 expanded the proposed action to include the Garnet plan and the lands west of the Continental Divide in Montana. When the draft EIS was issued, these lands were not included because they were included in the Interior Columbia Basin Ecosystem Management Plan. The standards would specify minimum required conditions for watershed function, nutrient cycling, water quality, endangered and threatened species protection, and habitat conditions for other wildlife. The guidelines would specify management practices or methods for meeting the standards. Guideline areas would include the amount and quality of vegetative ground cover and soil organisms, the permeability of subsurface soil, the riparian wetlands functions, the stream channel morphology, the conditions for seedling establishment, and the prevention of the spread of noxious weeds. Of the 920 allotments affected by the proposed action, approximately 650 would be subject to future changes in livestock grazing management. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed plan, the implementation would accelerate the improvement of vegetative cover and wildlife habitat on public rangelands. Overall, about 1,800 miles of riparian areas currently at-risk and 670 miles of non-functioning riparian areas would be improved. The hydrologic function of riparian areas and water quality would improve. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some economic hardship would be experienced by ranchers, particularly in Montana, where grazing would be reduced by approximately 29,000 animal unit months. The grazing restrictions would result in an income loss of up to $815,000 for Montana ranchers and a loss of 33 jobs.

Preparation date: May 29, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NATURAL BRIDGES NATIONAL MONUMENT, SAN JUAN COUNTY, UTAH. AN - 36404764; 6421 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for Natural Bridges National Monument in San Juan County, Utah, is proposed. The 7,435.49-acre monument is located 43 miles west of the community of Blanding. Issues of concern identified in the formation of alternative plans include providing a balance between protection of the natural resources and the provision of opportunities for visitor use; the inadequate facilities at the visitor center; the insufficient number of campsites at the area; the protection of viewsheds; wilderness suitability, and the determination of wild river status for the section of the White Canyon that lies within the Park; the access to facilities for persons with disabilities; and the limited in-park staff housing. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the No Action alternative, existing management activities would continue, and management zoning and resource management plans would be implemented as funding allowed. Existing visitor facilities would be maintained to support current activities; roads would continue to be repaired as needed; and required improvements for safety, sanitation, and accessibility for disabled persons would be accomplished as funding permitted. Under the proposed action, the management plan would be in effect for 10 to 15 years. The proposed action would provide an additional 900 to 1,400 square feet of office space at the administrative and visitor center and upgrade visitor orientation information and facilities, as guided by the Park's plan for interpretation. The small picnic area on Bridge View Drive would be removed and the area rehabilitated, and a comfort station and benches would be located along the drive. Housing for up to 12 employees would be realized in the next 10 to 15 years. The visitor center parking area would be redesigned to improve vehicular circulation. Garage and storage space would be added in the maintenance area to improve operations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would avoid adverse impacts which could be expected under the No Action Alternative, including minor disturbance to soil and vegetation adjacent to roads, parking lots, picnic areas, camping areas, and buildings resulting from undirected foot traffic and increased visitation; increased motor vehicle emissions; and diminishing water resources. Museum collections could increase as a result of data collection and mitigation of archaeological sites disturbed by proposed construction activities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction or alteration of facilities called for in the proposed action would result in the permanent removal of vegetation and topsoil, changes in site topography, and introduction of impermeable surfaces such as compacted dirt and gravel. Some rodents and other small mammals would likely be displaced by construction, as would some smaller bird species, reptiles, and amphibians. The construction would result in a temporary increase in particulate matter and motor vehicle emissions would also increase.

AN - 36401816; 6386 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of the training facilities and procedures at the Marine Corps Air Station Yuma in Yuma, Arizona, is proposed. The training complex includes airspace as well as lands within the Barry M. Goldwater Air Force Range in Arizona and the Chocolate Mountain Aerial Bombing and Gunnery Range in California. These areas comprise more than 1,900 square miles of lands that have been employed as aerial gunnery and bombing training areas since they were established during the World War II period. The Marine Corps shares management of the Goldwater Range and its airspace with four other federal agencies. The complex is the only location available to and operated by the Marine Corps where the primary mission is to provide the full spectrum of support for Marine Corps tactical aviation training. Fourteen sets of alternatives are considered in this final EIS. A No Action Alternative is considered within each set. Three sets of alternatives would affect the airspace over the complex, restricting some overflights of the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge but allowing overflights for 60 days per year and providing additional restricted airspace over the Chocolate Mountain Range. Five sets of alternatives would affect the Goldwater Range, adding new target scenarios and a new runway, relocating the parachute drop zone for cargo, and consolidating ground support areas. Six sets of alternatives would affect the Chocolate Mountain Range, increasing the net explosive weight limits for bombs, authorizing night ordnance delivery training, developing additional new targets, and relocating some ground support facilities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The improvements to the training facilities would improve the Marine Corps' capabilities for anti-air warfare, offensive air support, assault support, aerial reconnaissance, electronic warfare, and control of aircraft and missiles. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Increased levels of aerial training and ordnance use would expose bighorn sheep and other wildlife to high levels of noise and vibration. Additional ordnance use would also further contaminate the soil and cause soil erosion and delivery of sediment to streams.

AN - 16347175; 6389 AB - PURPOSE: The restructuring of special-use airspace and development of new air-to-ground range areas in order to accommodate Air Force training operations in southwestern Idaho is proposed. The proposed action would substantially enhance the realism, quality, and flexibility of local training for the 366th Wing, stationed at the Mountain Home Air Force Base in Elmore County, Idaho. The 366th Wing is an air expeditionary force prepared to deploy worldwide to an area of potential or ongoing conflict in order to neutralize enemy forces. The mission requires intensive training in all types of offensive and defensive weapons, and the coordinated involvement of various aircraft types. The 366th Wing must practice on various types of realistic targets, including airfields, enemy equipment, and industrial and command complexes. However, the range area used by the 366th Wing for training lacks tactical targets, offers limited target arrays, and does not provide a realistic battlefield complex to allow for variation in training attacks. Furthermore, existing airspace restrictions limits aircraft approaches from only one direction. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Each of the action alternatives would involve continued use of the Saylor Creek Range, and designating a new 12,000-acre training range with a 300-acre primary ordnance impact area, five no-drop targets on which no ordnance would be dropped, 30 small electronic emitter sites, and modified military airspace to allow for greater dispersal of aircraft. The alternatives would differ primarily in regard to the location of the range area. All of the affected lands would be withdrawn from public lands use in Owyhee County, Idaho. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The restructuring and expansion of military airspace and range areas would enhance the readiness of the 366th Wing by enabling it to conduct realistic training exercises. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Noise levels would increase in the airspace over new range areas. Some risk of ground fires exist as a result of aircraft accidents and use of training ordnance and flares. The range alternatives would result in the loss of up to 700 acres of vegetation and associated wildlife habitat, and approximately 12,000 acres of potential grazing acreage.

AN - 36411851; 6360 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a competitive lease sale of 1,440 acres of federal coal lands containing an estimated 144 million tons of coal, subject to the standard coal lease stipulations and to special coal lease stipulations developed for the Wyoming Powder River Basin (PRB), located in northeast Wyoming, is proposed. The tract was applied for by Shell Mining Company, which is now Bluegrass Coal Development Company (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zeigler Coal Holding Company) and whose subsidiary operating unit, Triton Coal Company, operates the adjacent North Rochelle Mine in southeastern Campbell County. The tract is located 50 miles south of the town of Gillette. The North Rochelle reserves would be mined out by approximately 2010 under current mining plans. Without supplemental reserves, no additional coal would be available for new or existing contracts. Bluegrass is proposing to lease additional federal coal reserves located adjacent to its permitted North Rochelle Mine. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are proposed in this final EIS. Under the BLM's preferred alternative (Alternative A), approximately 80 acres with about nine million tons of federal coal would be added to the northwestern corner of the tract to prevent a potential bypass situation, and approximately 40 acres with about four million tons of federal coal would be removed from the southeastern corner of the tract to enhance the value of adjacent, unleased coal. The revised tract contains approximately 149 million tons of federal reserves covering approximately 1,482 acres. The federal coal tract would be offered for competitive sale but Alternative A would assume that Bluegrass would be the successful bidder. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the LBA tract would be attractive to other potential bidders, minimizing the risk of bypassing federal coal that would then become economically unrecoverable and enhancing the fair market value of remaining unleased federal coal in the area. If the tract were mined as a maintenance tract, the leasing and subsequent mining of the tract would not create additional jobs but would extend the life of an already permitted operation by 11 years. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The major adverse environmental consequences on land use would be the reduction of livestock grazing, loss of wildlife habitat, curtailment of oil and gas development, and short-term loss of public land available for recreational activities on about 1,440 acres during active mining. Wildlife, particularly big game, and livestock (cattle and sheep) use would be displaced while the tract is being mined and reclaimed. Noise levels would be increased considerably by mining activities such as blasting, crushing, conveying, rail car loading, scraping, and hauling. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.), Mineral Leasing Act of 1920, as amended (30 U.S.C. 181 et seq.), and Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (30 U.S.C. 1201 et seq.).

AN - 36388120; 6355 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of three leach facilities and a waste rock disposal facility by Cyprus Miami Mining Corporation in order to support the continued operation of the company's copper mining operation, located near Miami in east-central Arizona, is proposed. The existing facilities at the mine include leaching facilities, open pits, solution collection reservoirs, a solvent extraction facility, an electrowinning plant, and waste rock disposal facilities on both private and public lands. The complex also includes a smelter, electro-refinery, and a rod plant. The facility expansion would enable the applicant to maintain the current level of operations of the mine for 16 to 20 years, producing an average of 29 million tons per year. The three leach pads would be used for the placement and subsequent leaching of copper-bearing ore mined from reserves owned by the applicant. Material placed on the pads would be rinsed with sulfuric acid solutions, and the resulting copper-bearing solution would be collected and treated at the existing solvent extraction and electro-winning plants to produce high-quality cathode copper. The waste rock area would be used for storing the uneconomic nonmineral material removed from the mining pits. The expansion would also require the construction of access and haul roads, solution pipelines, and surface water control structures. The facilities would be constructed on 286 acres belonging to the applicant, 350 acres managed by the Bureau of Land Management, and 489 acres managed by the Forest Service. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would enable the mine to continue operating at its current level to the year 2008, at which point its work force would be reduced by 10 percent each year. Under the No Action Alternative, those workforce reductions would commence in 1998. The continued operation of the mine would provide $1.1 billion in tax revenue to Gila County. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would disturb 771 acres of public land and result in the loss of 9.22 acres of open water, drainages, and wetlands. Aquifer water quality standards could be exceeded for a short distance down-gradient of leach facilities.

Preparation date: April 4, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NORTH FORK OF THE SOUTH PLATTE AND THE SOUTH PLATTE RIVERS, WILD AND SCENIC RIVER STUDY REPORT; DOUGLAS, JEFFERSON, PARK, AND TELLER COUNTIES, COLORADO. AN - 36399397; 6351 AB - PURPOSE: The inclusion in the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System of the North Fork of the South Platte River and portions of the South Platte River, located in central Colorado, is proposed. Most of the 99.5 miles of river under consideration lie within the Pike National Forest, but the project area includes many private and local government land holdings and 29 acres managed by the Bureau of Land Management. The river segments under consideration are free-flowing and possess outstanding recreational opportunities, fisheries, wildlife, and cultural resources. Jagged outcrops and massive rounded boulders of Pikes Peak granite are combined with steep vegetated slopes, providing a variety of visual relief. The project area supports a variety of wildlife, including several endangered and threatened species (Mexican spotted owl, bald eagles, Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep). Nine alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A1), are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would involve implementing either Alternative J or Alternative A2. Under Alternative J, 48.1 miles of the South Platte River would be protected. The protected area would extend from the confluence with the North Fork to the special-use fence line below Elevenmile Dam. Two segments totaling 34.6 miles would be designated as recreational; three segments totaling 10.5 miles would be designated as wild; and one 3.0-mile segment would be designated as scenic. Under Alternative A2, there would be no official wild and scenic designation. Instead, non-federal parties would assume responsibility for protecting unique river values. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the implementation would fulfill management requirements mandated by federal and state legislation. Long-term water resource impacts would be reduced, and unique river resources would be protected. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Alternative J would close Cheesman Canyon and portions of Wildcat Canyon to motorized access. While this action would help to the wild and primitive character of the landscape, it would also severely limit access for natural resources management.

Among the major ions analyzed during July-August 1994, only slight differences in concentrations were evident between sites. Ammonia-nitrogen levels at three of four sampling sites were in the 0.030-0.040 mg/l range and totaled 0.080 mg/l at the fourth site. None of the sites had detectable concentrations of selected organic compounds, and trace element levels at all sites were at or below detection limits, except for barium, iron, lead, manganese, and strontium.

AN - 36412907; 6331 AB - PURPOSE: The expansion of an open-pit heap-leach gold mine project on a 3,910-acre site in the Lanfair Valley in the eastern Mojave Desert in California is proposed. The site is approximately 100 miles east of the city of Barstow, California, and 70 miles south of Las Vegas, Nevada, and is located on the southwest flank of the Castle Mountains. The existing mine, which is the third largest gold mine in the state, was granted a permit in 1990 to mine and process approximately 90 million tons of ore and overburden over a 20-year period. The operation mines ore and unmineralized rock at rates of up to 18 million tons per year. Ore is processed for gold extraction at an average rate of 4.1 million tons of ore per year. Three mine pits are permitted to be mined to a maximum depth of 600 feet over an area of approximately 135 acres. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would involve the continuation and completion of the existing mining and reclamation as scheduled, is considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the current operator of the mine, Viceroy Gold Corporation, would mine additional ore reserves that have been delineated since the 1990 permits were issued, thereby extending the project's operating life another ten years. In addition, the proposed action would involve the expansion of the mining area to include 175 acres for additional identified ore reserves; the development of a 205-acre overburden storage site and associated haul roads; the consolidation of the existing heap leach pads into one large leach pad covering 420 acres; and the potential conversion of an exploration road to a mine site overlook for the East Mojave Heritage Trail. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project currently provides year-round employment for a work force of 200 and supports secondary employment through the $8.0 million in annual expenditures for goods and services in the region. At some point in 1997, all ore covered by existing permits will have been mined. The proposed action would ensure that the regional economic benefits of mining would extend well into the next century. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would disturb up to 490 additional acres of desert vegetation. The project would cause a local exceedance of air quality standards for particulates. The waste rock pile, the heap leach pile, and the mine pit highwall would adversely affect visual resources. Heavy truck traffic would create some safety hazards on local roadways.

Preparation date: March 21, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GILLETTE SOUTH COAL BED METHANE PROJECT, CAMPBELL COUNTY, WYOMING. AN - 36405363; 6327 AB - PURPOSE: The development of coalbed methane gas (CMG) wells in a CMG project on public and private lands within the Gillette South assessment area in the eastern portion of the Powder River Basin, located in northeast Wyoming, is proposed. The wells would be located within a project boundary one mile south of the town of Gillette to 12 miles south of the town of Wright. The wells would be located from near the coal mines along the coal outcrop to 15 to 18 miles to the west. The 685-square-mile project area is believed to contain up to 168 billion cubic feet of gas; it currently supports 140 CMG wells. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would involve adding up to 400 more wells: 190 of these would be drilled on federal minerals, and the remainder on private and state minerals. These wells would be drilled by several companies over a three- to five-year period. The rate of development would depend on the ability to compress and market the methane. Because the wells tends to occur in groups or pods depending on the structure of the coal seam, and are usually drilled on a 40-acre spacing, large portions of the project area would never see any activity. The developed areas could have up to 16 wells per square mile. The drilling would be by small truck-mounted water well rigs. Each well would be drilled to depths of 350 to 1,200 feet. The gas would be conveyed in a polyethylene pipe extending from each well to a compressor station that would compress the gas for delivery to a high-pressure transmission line. The water pumped into a well to initiate gas flow would be discharged into area drainages after passing through a water/gas separator. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The development of the project could help lessen U.S. dependence on foreign energy sources and promote the use of a relatively clean fuel. The project would generate revenue for the state, county, federal government and private landowners. The discharged water would be used for the development of livestock and wildlife watering areas. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would initially disturb approximately 311 acres. Drilling would result in a loss in hydraulic head in the coal and shallower aquifers in the area surrounding the mines.

AN - 36401373; 6320 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Gauley River National Recreation Area, located in central West Virginia, is proposed. The area encompasses a 25-mile section of the Gauley River and a 5.5-mile section of the Meadow River. The recreation area was established by Congress in 1988 in order to provide the public with opportunities for whitewater boating, picnicking, camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, trapping, and sightseeing, while protecting a large natural area. Located outside the boundary of the recreation area, but immediately adjacent to it, is Summersville Dam, built across the Gauley River near Battle Run and McKee Creek as part of a comprehensive flood control plan for the Ohio River basin. Completed in 1966, the dam and lake provide flood control, low-flow augmentation to the river system, recreation, and a local water supply. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative B), the emphasis would be placed on resource-based interpretive programs and the Park Service would collaborate with appropriate state agencies to enhance the interpretation of and access to the adjacent Carnifex Ferry Battlefield State Park. An approximately 6,000-square-foot visitor center, to be located near the dam, would serve as the primary interpretive facility for the recreation area. Interpretive media (primarily waysides and bulletin cases), which would be located below the dam, would interpret the structure and provide safety instruction. Wayside exhibits would also be placed at scenic view points, key trailheads, and several historical sites. Trails through scenic areas would be improved and new ones would be created for guided and self-guided hikes as well as fishing access. A picnic/day-use area, in conjunction with a scenic overlook, would be developed in the middle area of the river, near Panther Mountain Road. Additional enhancements would include new parking and camping areas, minor road improvements, and the development of new river access points. Estimated development costs are $8.0 million in 1996 dollars. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the semi-primitive and scenic quality of the area for backpackers, whitewater boaters, campers, and sportsmen would be protected. A system of land- and water-based recreational opportunities would be developed in order to allow visitors to experience the area's resources and primitive nature to the extent that natural and cultural values were not impaired. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction activity located near the river would degrade water quality by increasing erosion and sediment delivery to the river. Up to 17 acres of second-growth forest would be cleared for construction. Much of the planned construction would occur within the 100-year floodplain. LEGAL MANDATES: Executive Order 11988 and West Virginia National Interest River Conservation Act of 1987 (Public Law 100-534).

AN - 36412709; 6316 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for the Caliente Resource Area, located in central California, is proposed. The resource area (570,000 acres of public land and 939,000 acres of federal mineral estate) is subdivided into three distinct management areas: the Coastal, Valley, and Southern Sierra management areas, each with distinct resource values. Public lands are scattered across the resource area in numerous small parcels. Focal issues identified during the scoping process and addressed in this final EIS include land acquisition and disposal, access to federal lands, livestock grazing, and oil and gas leasing and development. Under the proposed action (Alternative 5), implementation would involve the maintenance and designation of 15 areas of critical environmental concern (ACECs), containing 239,607 acres; the disposal of 140,700 acres of public land, while acquiring replacement lands with high resource values, including lands with ACECs, wilderness areas, and populations of endangered or threatened species; the improved public access to selected remote tracts; the development of campgrounds, backcountry byways, mountain opportunities, and other recreational facilities; and the designation of 463,953 acres for livestock grazing, and 1.2 million acres for oil and gas and geothermal leasing. This final EIS, which is issued in an abbreviated format, contains corrections and revisions to the draft EIS as well as public comments and agency responses. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the implementation would replace and consolidate two management plans and bring management policy into compliance with recent court decisions and regulations. Small, isolated tracts of public lands would be disposed, and access to lands with high resource values would be improved. Most lands with high and moderate oil and gas development potential would be available for exploration and development under standard lease terms. Large tracts of scenic areas would be preserved and protected, and habitat would be protected and/or provided for a variety of wildlife and fish. Significant visual, cultural, recreational, and geological resources would be protected or enhanced. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The planned disposal of public lands could adversely affect the California condor and other endangered species. Mining, oil and gas development, and other exploitative land uses would adversely affect vegetation and associated wildlife habitat (including some federally-listed species), streams and associated fishery habitat, soils, and air and water quality within the resource areas. Livestock forage would be reduced by roughly by 20 percent, and costs of grazing livestock would increase in the valley management Area.

Preparation date: March 14, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - INDEPENDENCE NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK, PHILADELPHIA, PHILADELPHIA COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA. AN - 36404420; 6318 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is proposed. The park is located in the heart of the historic old city of Philadelphia and includes all or portions of 17 city blocks. The park includes 45 acres in downtown Philadelphia in the Society Hill and Old City neighborhoods. The park contains Independence Square World Heritage Site and national historical landmarks such as the First Bank, Second Bank, American Philosophical Society Hall, Carpenters' Hall, Christ Church, and the Deshler-Morris House. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places for national significance. Congress authorized the park on June 28, 1948, and it was formally established July 4, 1956. The most recent management plan was the master plan completed in 1971. Since that time, the boundary was extended to incorporate Independence Mall State Park and other land, the visitor center and maintenance facility were completed, and visitation increased. Historic buildings have shown the effect of time and use, and the needs and expectations of visitors and park personnel have changed. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), which would minimally meet the requirements of the park's enabling legislation, were considered in the draft EIS of August 1995. This final EIS, which is issued in an abbreviated format, contains revisions to the preferred alternative (Alternative E) presented in the draft EIS as well as public comments and agency responses. The revised alternative E-1 would establish a new sequence of arrival and orientation would bring visitors first to Independence Mall, where they would find a new, regional visitor center jointly operated by the National Park Service and the City of Philadelphia. Under this alternative, the Gateway Visitor Center and the Independence Park Institute would be located on the southern end of the second block of the mall, and the National Constitution Center would be located at the northern end of the second block. Minor redesign of the first block of the mall would be permitted to accommodate a new or enlarged Liberty Bell Pavilion, relocated outdoor First Amendment rights space, relocated restrooms, and improved sight lines. Total estimated costs of the project range from $34.4 million to $50.5 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The management plan would fill the requirements of park managers, reflect the needs of visitors and the community, and provide for the continued protection of the park's resources. All of the action alternatives would probably result in an increase in visitation to and recreational use of the park. Elements common to all of the action alternatives, which would include provisions for the addition of trees and grass to the landscaped area of the park and the elimination of bus idling on city streets adjacent to the park, would improve air quality and reduce noise. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The removal of on-street tour and school bus parking from the Old Philadelphia District, as recommended under all of the action alternatives, would require that a remote site be designated for bus parking. The closing of a portion of Chestnut Street would increase traffic on nearby streets. LEGAL MANDATES: National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended (16 U.S.C. 470 et seq.).

AN - 36409266; 6304 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of mining limitations on 22,000 acres in the Gallatin and Custer national forests near Cooke City, Montana, is proposed. The study area forms the headwaters of outstanding natural resource waters, including streams that flow through Yellowstone National Park and surrounding wilderness areas. Segments of the Clarks Fork, Stillwater, and Soda Butte creeks are either designated or eligible for designation as wild and scenic rivers. Mining activities would threaten water quality and fishery resources as a result of acid-rock drainage, groundwater contamination from underground mines, failure of tailings impoundment, and potential contamination of wetlands. Other issues of concern include the potential effects of mining on scenic integrity, recreational opportunities, cultural resources, and wildlife. Alternatives considered in this draft EIS include a No Action Alternative, under which federal lands would not be withdrawn from mineral location and entry, and federal lands would be open and available for mining. The proposed action would involve mineral withdrawal of 22,000 acres of federal lands, subject to valid existing rights associated with the 470 existing unpatented mining claims in the withdrawal area. The mineral withdrawal would immediately affect 17,760 acres of federal lands where no mining claims currently exist and would halt development of the proposed New World Mine near Cooke City for a period of twenty years. The withdrawal would be subject to review at that time. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The withdrawal would protect the resource values of the project area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Mining could be allowed on 4,240 acres of unpatented mining claims in the project area, depending on valid existing rights.

AN - 62180138; ED467473 AB - This active, interdisciplinary place-based curriculum, which includes a teacher's guide, a student field journal, and a related photo packet introduces fourth and fifth grade students to the concept of landscape and heightens their awareness of the relationship between landscape and people. The curriculum program is designed to introduce students to the concept of landscape, while instilling a sense of curiosity about, and responsibility for, the landscapes around them. The program brings students through a learning cycle that starts and ends in their schoolyard and features a visit to the historic Arnold Arboretum (Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts). It was conceived with the belief that every landscape contains stories that offer opportunities to learn about the natural forces, historical experiences, and cultural expressions that make up the world and influence the individual's sense of self. Landscapes are outdoor classrooms and can be used to support a variety of learning standards and learning styles. The teacher's guide is divided into the following three sections: (1) "Introduction" (Picture This; Schoolyard Landscape Exploration, two parts); (2) "Teaching Plans for Student Activities" (Introducing Landscape; Developing a Perspective; Visiting the Arnold Arboretum; Making Connections); and (3) "Resources and Materials." The student field journal includes background information and activities that spark imagination, creativity, and self-confidence as students develop new skills and understanding. The field journal is divided into the following nine sections: (1) "What Is Landscape?"; (2) "Findings a Landscape"; (3) "Comparing Landscapes"; (4) "Schoolyard History Exploration"; (5) "Schoolyard Nature Exploration"; (6) "Schoolyard Art Exploration"; (7) "Getting Ready for Your Arboretum Adventure"; (8) "Designing Your Schoolyard Landscape"; and (9) "More Things to Read and Do." The field journal is printed in an easy-to-read format and contains many colorful illustrations designed to appeal to students. The photo packet is appended.

AN - 36404218; 6299 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for the Roswell and Carlsbad resource areas in New Mexico is proposed. The areas together comprise 3.69 million acres of federally owned lands and minerals and 10.34 million acres of federally owned minerals (split estate). The two resource areas, located in the eastern and southeastern regions of the state, are being evaluated because of the similarity of oil and gas resources and development issues in the two areas and the interests in standardizing management. Focal issues identified during the scoping process and addressed include land acquisition and disposal, access to federal lands, designation of special management areas, and oil and gas leasing and development. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, were considered for each of the resource areas in the draft EIS of September 1994; Alternative E is the preferred alternative for each area. Under the preferred plan for the Carlsbad area, implementation would focus on oil and gas development. It would close 109,517 acres to oil and gas leasing, and allow leasing with no surface occupancy on 78,527 acres and controlled surface use on 55,920 acres; special mitigation measures would protect cave and karst from the effects of drilling and exploration. Wildlife improvement projects would have a no-surface-occupancy stipulation as would habitat areas for endangered and threatened species. Under the preferred plan for the Roswell area, implementation would consider all resources values and uses in the planning area. It would close 391,989 acres to oil and gas leasing, allow leasing with no surface occupancy on 39,306 acres and controlled surface use on 1,320 acres; it would also close 103,344 acres to solid mineral leasing and 70,458 acres to mineral material disposal. Up to 3,000 acres of private and state lands in the vicinity of Fort Stanton would be considered for acquisition. An additional 75,000 acres of non-federal land would be considered on a case-by-case basis, while 150,000 acres of public lands would be considered for disposal. Five areas of critical environmental concern (ACECs) would be designated: Overflow Wetlands (6,814 acres), North Pecos River (6,400 acres), Mescalero Sands (10,007 acres), Fort Stanton (24,630 acres), and Roswell Cave (16,818 acres). Off-road vehicle use would limited to designated roads and trails. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the two preferred alternatives, implementation would provide as much resource protection as possible while meeting multiple use mandates. Small isolated tracts of public lands in the Roswell area would be disposed, and access to lands with high resource values would be improved. Most lands with high and moderate oil and gas development potential would be available for exploration and development under standard lease terms. Large tracts of scenic areas would be preserved and protected, and habitat would be protected and/or provided for a variety of wildlife and fish. Significant visual, cultural, recreational, and geological resources would be protected or enhanced. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Land newly closed to oil and gas leasing would result in a loss in bonus bids of up to $2.38 million. Grazing capacity would decrease primarily as a result of ACEC designation, causing an economic hardship to ranchers.

AN - 36402074; 6294 AB - PURPOSE: The adoption of regional guidelines for rangeland health and livestock grazing management for lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) east of the Continental Divide in Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota is proposed. The guidelines would reflect revised regulations for livestock grazing on BLM lands that became effective in August 1995 (43 CFR 4100). The proposed action would incorporate the revised guidelines in ten BLM land use plans covering 8.4 million acres of the project area. Plans affected by this action would include Big Dry, Billings, Dillon, Headwaters, Judith-Valley-Phillips, North Dakota, Powder River, South Dakota, and West HiLine. Three Alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), were considered in the draft EIS of October 1996. This draft supplement to the draft EIS of October 1996 expands the proposed action to include the Garnet plan and the lands west of the Continental Divide in Montana. When the draft EIS was issued, these lands were not included because they were included in the Interior Columbia Basin Ecosystem Management Plan. The proposed standards would specify minimum required conditions for watershed function, nutrient cycling, water quality, endangered and threatened species protection, and habitat conditions for other wildlife. The proposed guidelines would specify management practices or methods for meeting the standards. Guideline areas would include the amount and quality of vegetative ground cover and soil organisms, the permeability of subsurface soil, riparian wetlands functions, stream channel morphology, the conditions for seedling establishment, and the prevention of the spread of noxious weeds. Of the 920 allotments affected by the proposed action, some 190 would experience a reduction in livestock use and 16 would experience an increase. Roughly two-thirds of the allotments would experience range improvements or vegetative treatments. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed plan, the implementation would accelerate the improvement of vegetative cover and wildlife habitat on public rangelands. Overall, about 1,800 miles of riparian areas currently at-risk and 670 miles of non-functioning riparian areas would be improved. The hydrologic function of riparian areas and water quality would improve. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some economic hardship would be experienced by ranchers, particularly in Montana, where grazing would be reduced by approximately 29,000 animal unit months. The grazing restrictions would result in an income loss of up to $815,000 for Montana ranchers and a loss of 33 jobs.

AN - 36401390; 6292 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a resource management plan for the Interlakes Special Recreation Management Area, located in northern California, is proposed. The 74,845-acre management area is bordered by Clear Creek to the west, a Sacramento River greenway divide and Shasta Lake to the east, Wild Cow Mountain to the north, and Highway 299 to the south. Because of the complex pattern of land ownership within the area, management of the area will require close coordination among federal land managers and private landowners. The management area encompasses 26,700 acres of Bureau of Land Management land, 11,200 acres of Forest Service land, 5,300 acres of Bureau of Reclamation land, 4,500 acres of National Park Service land, and 27,100 acres of private land. Issues of concern focus on the management of recreation, vegetation, wildlife, visual resources, roads and trails, law enforcement, and emergency response. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative D) would attempt to provide passive forms of recreation opportunities (hiking and canoeing) in many of the same regions where more active forms of recreation are available. About 210 miles of existing roads and trails would be available for motor vehicle use. A multiple-use, day-use area and parking area would be developed at the Merry Mountain site providing access to existing nonmotorized trails within the Whiskeytown Unit and new trails within the Clear Creek Greenway. An off-highway vehicle staging area would be maintained below Shasta Dam. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The implementation of a management plan would provide direction to an area with a diverse array of recreation uses and federal agency jurisdictions. Full implementation of the preferred alternative would generate up to $9.3 million of annual visitor spending. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: New roads constructed within the winter range of the Whiskeytown deer herd would displace up to 14 acres of habitat.

AN - 36409205; 6289 AB - PURPOSE: The development of water supplies for the Uintah Unit of the Central Utah Project, located in northeastern Utah, is proposed. The Uintah Unit is located in Duchesne and Uintah counties and includes portions Uintah and Ouray Reservation. Tribal and non-tribal farmers in the Uintah Unit depend on irrigation and need to distribute runoff from the Uinta Mountains on a schedule that better matches their crop production schedules. Because the Uinta Range has an east-west orientation, its extensive south-facing slopes are subject to rapid snowmelt during spring thaw. Fluctuating stream flows also have an adverse effect on fishery resources. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The project would include water storage reservoirs, improved diversion and distribution of water, water conservation, stabilization of high mountain lakes, instream flows, fish and wildlife mitigation and enhancements, recreation developments, and land retirement. The Lower Uintah Dam and Reservoir would be constructed on the Uinta River. The reservoir would have a storage capacity of 38,385 acre-feet (af) be located on Ute Tribal lands. During an average water year, reservoir water levels would fluctuate 62 feet, remaining well above the conservation pool elevation. Seven existing diversion structures would be replaced with new diversion dams, one diversion structure would be modified, and one new diversion structure would be built. The Uintah Independent and Bench canals would be rehabilitated by modifying canal size and shape and lining the canals. A 2.2-mile pipeline would convey water from the Uinta River's West Channel back to the East Channel to permit rediversion to the Ouray Park system for irrigation use. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The social and economic conditions in the area are underscored by a century-long dependence on agriculture, which is severely limited by inadequate water supplies; the project would substantially reduce water shortages. For Indian water rights, annual irrigation water supplies would increase from 69,682 af under existing conditions to 82,002 af after the reservoir is constructed. The project would increase the total earnings of Ute Tribal members by $7.2 million per year. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would adversely affect a 2.6-mile-long, free-flowing section of the Uinta River and 451 acres of wetlands. Approximately 319 acres of critical mule deer habitat would be lost. In addition, the conversion of idle Ute Tribal lands would result in the loss of preferred sage grouse habitat.

AN - 36411459; 6281 AB - PURPOSE: The development of natural gas resources in central Wyoming is proposed. The project area encompasses approximately 25,093 acres on a site roughly 60 miles west of Casper, Wyoming; roughly 7,391 acres of the affected land is federally owned and managed and 77 percent of the mineral estate is federal. The well operators would include Barrett Resources Corporation, Chevron USA Production Company, Marathon Oil Company, and Prima Oil and Gas Company. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative C), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, seven companies would drill up to 160 wells in addition to the 42 currently in place in order to obtain the maximum recovery of natural gas from existing federal, state and private oil and gas leases. The wells would be built on 107 new well pads and 24 enlarged well pads; 66 miles of roads would be built to provide access to the wells. The development activities would be subject to occupancy restrictions of 0.25 and 0.50 miles around all raptor nest buffer zones during raptor nesting periods. The operators estimate that the wells would operate for 30 to 40 years. The preferred alternative (Alternative B) would generally resemble the proposed action but would implement additional protections within raptor zones. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the natural gas development would provide $63.0 million in state severance taxes and $152.0 million in federal royalty payments. The development projects would employ 172 workers, benefit the local economy, and help to lessen reliance on foreign energy supplies. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, up to 313 acres would be initially disturbed from well locations, along with 164 acres from pipelines, 256 acres from roads, and 35 acres from ancillary facilities. Under both the preferred alternative and proposed action, much of this disturbed area would be reclaimed after the wells are shut down. Drilling activities would have moderate impacts on air quality, soils, noise, wildlife, recreation, and visual resources.

Preparation date: February 7, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GEORGE WASHINGTON NATIONAL FOREST LAND AND RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN, VIRGINIA AND WEST VIRGINIA (FINAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF JANUARY 1993). AN - 36412430; 6274 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of the land and resource management plan for the George Washington National Forest in Virginia and West Virginia is proposed. The forest includes the Blue Ridge, Shenandoah, Massanutten, and Alleghany ranges of the Appalachian Mountain system. It lies within the James and Potomac river basins and within the Blue Ridge and the Ridge and Valley physiographic provinces. Elevations generally range from 1,000 to 3,000 feet; however, some mountaintop elevations are over 4,000 feet. Focal issues under consideration include biological diversity, timber sale economics, forest access, all-terrain-vehicle (ATV) use, roadless area management, special recreation management areas, aesthetics, vegetation manipulations, resource sustainability, mineral resource development, gypsy moth infestations, the adequacy of the plan revision, and the mix of goods and services provided by the multiple-use plan. A total of 14 management alternatives were considered in the final EIS of January 1993. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 8A), the plan would emphasize biological values such as habitat for threatened, endangered, and sensitive species, and wildlife viewing and nature studies, in combination with multiple-use management. The plan would establish multiple-use goals, objectives, and desired future conditions for the forest; establish forest standards applicable to future activities; establish management areas and the associated direction to guide future management activities in particular areas; designate land suitable for timber production; establish the allowable sale quantity for timber; allocate nonwilderness management direction or recommend wilderness study for 24 roadless areas; establish a monitoring and evaluation process; and designate 75,000 acres in the Alleghany front lease area as being available for oil and gas leasing. In this final supplement to the final EIS, Alternative 8A has been designated the No Action Alternative in that it would continue the direction of the existing forest plan. The new preferred alternative is Alternative 8A-LF1, which would amend the forest plan to make the 10,000-acre Laurel Fork management area unavailable for oil and gas leasing and would withdraw consent from the Bureau of Land Management for future leasing. This alternative was developed in response to public concern about the likely effect of oil and gas development on the primitive character and natural beauty of the area. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The revision of the forest management plan would provide for the continued production of selected forest products but would prohibit oil and gas development within the ecologically fragile Laurel Fork area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Timber harvests, road construction, and other exploitative uses would destroy vegetation and disturb soils, resulting in sedimentation of receiving flows. Wildlife habitat in disturbed areas would be degraded, and visual and recreational quality in these areas would decline. Prescribed burning would degrade air quality temporarily in localized areas.

AN - 36404068; 6265 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of the wastewater treatment facilities serving Camp Pendleton, a Marine Corps base located in the northern portion of San Diego County, California, is proposed. The base currently collects, treats, and disposes of wastewater through a system of 10 sewage treatment plants (STPs). In 1989 and 1991, the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board issued a cease and desist order on the operations of two STPs that were constructed in the 1940s and were not operating in compliance with current water quality standards. STP 9 is located along Las Pulgas Creek in the Las Pulgas Basin and is permitted to discharge 1.1 million gallons per day of surface water into the Las Flores Creek. STP 12 is located in the San Mateo Basin and is permitted to discharge 0.85 million gallons per day of surface water into San Mateo Creek. The sewage effluent from these STPs is not in compliance with current water quality standards. The proposed action would involve the construction of facilities in the Las Pulgas basin, including advanced wastewater treatment facility, treatment ponds, approximately 19,000 linear feet of pipeline, remote chlorination facility, and injection wells. Treated effluent would be discharged into injection wells located downstream of potable water wells. The proposed action would also include construction of equalization basins from existing oxidation ponds at STP 12, approximately 12,500 linear feet of pipeline, and percolation basins covering 35 acres of land. In addition, a 5,100-foot pipeline connector would be constructed to convey excess sewage effluent from the pipeline serving STPs 10 and 11 in the San Onofre Basin to the San Mateo percolation basins. The percolation basins would be located downstream of potable water wells. The No Action Alternative would not prevent degradation of water quality and saltwater intrusion into the Las Pulgas and San Mateo basins, nor would it comply with the Cease and Desist Orders and the water quality standards in federal and state safe drinking water standards. Therefore, it has been eliminated from consideration. The proposed action is the only alternative considered in this final EIS. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the sewage treatment facilities at the military base would be brought into compliance with water quality, and the threat of contaminating local water supplies would be minimized. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project areas are located in an active seismic region, and ground-shaking could adversely STP operations. Portions of the project are underlain by poorly consolidated alluvium, and the potential for liquefaction, soil expansion, and erosion exists at both sites. In addition, both projects would adversely affect sensitive wildlife habitats and species, and water quality from nutrient loading in coastal waters.

AN - 36387616; 6257 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of regulations for defining valid existing mining rights and for establishing such rights in areas where Congress has otherwise prohibited mining is proposed. Section 522(e) of the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA) prohibits surface mining operations on any lands in the National Park System, National Wildlife Refuge System, and other programs designed to protect high-value public lands. Approximately 5.2 million acres of land protected by Section 522(e) are underlain by federal and private coal reserves. SMCRA makes an exception for those operations that hold valid existing rights (VER) within one of these protected areas; however, VER is not defined in the statute. Five alternatives for implementing the VER exception, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Good Faith All Permits Alternative) would require an applicant who wishes to conduct surface mining operations to provide evidence of a good faith effort to obtain mining permits prior to August 3, 1977, when SMCRA went into effect. A secondary issue examined in this draft EIS is whether the prohibitions of section 522(e) apply to subsidence resulting from underground coal mining activities. The applicability of Section 522(e) is also not specifically discussed in the statute. Under the preferred alternative, the Office of Surface Mining would determine through rulemaking that subsidence from underground mining is not subject to Section 522(e). POSITIVE IMPACTS: The Good Faith Alternative would establish a regulatory standard for VER and clarify the scope of the VER exception consistent with SMCRA and congressional intent. Few, if any, of the areas protected by Section 522(e) would be mined under this alternative. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: This generic impact analysis indicates that on a hypothetical site-specific basis, there would be significant adverse impacts to air quality, fish and wildlife, floodplains, geology, hydrology, land use, recreation resources, soils, topography, vegetation, and wetlands.

Preparation date: January 23, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WOLF TRAP FARM PARK FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS, FAIRFAX COUNTY, VIRGINIA. AN - 36408898; 6255 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan to guide the management, development, and use of Wolf Trap Farm Park for the Performing Arts in Vienna, Virginia, is proposed. The 130-acre facility located 15 miles west of Washington was established in 1966 as a park for the performing arts and related education programs. By legislative directive, the park is jointly managed by the National Park Service and the Wolf Trap Foundation. Within the park are three distinct areas: the farm area containing the farmhouse (used for administrative headquarters) and several outbuildings; a theater area, dominated by the Filene Center, an open air amphitheater with seating capacity of 7,000; and a woodlands area, consisting of 76 acres of dense woods with Wolf Trap Run and a two-acre man-made pond on the northeast corner of the park. Paved roads, trails, and structures occupy 24 acres of the park. Attendance at the park has grown steadily over the years, but the infrastructure for patrons and their vehicles has remained unchanged since 1984. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative 4), three acres of forested area would be cleared and a portion of the adjacent paved parking areas would be regraded. The existing paved parking areas would be repaved and striped to allow for maximum capacity. The pedestrian circulation of the park would be redesigned to allow for a more organized approach to the Filene Center and other areas. The existing box office building and ancillary buildings at the plaza would be removed and replaced with a single-story building that would consolidate all patron- and visitor-focused functions. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would preserve the pastoral and scenic quality of Wolf Trap while enabling the park to accommodate more visitors. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 14 acres would be disturbed by clearing, grading, and filling. The upland hardwood forest on the site would be depleted by two percent, potentially affecting habitat of the pileated woodpecker. LEGAL MANDATES: Public Law 89-671 and Public Law 101-636.

Preparation date: January 22, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SOUTH SIDE DENALI NATIONAL PARK AND PRESERVE, MANTANUSKA- SUSITNA BOROUGH, ALASKA. AN - 36404109; 6246 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a visitors' orientation and information center, and related facilities within the southern development zone of Denali State Park, located in Alaska, is proposed. The facility would provide additional access to Denali National Park and Preserve, which presently has only one access road to the north. Major focus issues include the impacts of the project on wildlife, vegetation, historic and archaeological resources, potential wilderness designation, subsistence use, the social and economic environments of Talkeetna and Cantwell, and visitor activities, plus the distance of the proposed center from the national park. A revised draft EIS, issued in March 1996, reflected the recommendations made by task force appointed by the Secretary of the Interior in 1994. Under the proposed action, the Park Service would construct a 5,000-square-foot visitors' center in the Tokositna area of Denali State Park. The Petersville Road would be upgraded and extended to access this new facility. A campground of up to 50 sites, a picnic area, up to four public-use cabins, and short hiking and interpretive trails would also be developed in the Tokositna area. Additional visitor facilities and services would be developed at Talkeetna, Broad Pass, and in the central development zone of Denali State Park once the need for such development has been established and consensus has been reached among affected Native American groups and government agencies. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative C), are considered in this final EIS. Under the action alternatives (Alternative A and Alternative B), a visitor center and related facilities would be constructed in Denali State Park along the George Parks Highway; no facilities would be constructed in the Tokositna area. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The center would provide opportunities for visitors to Denali National Park and Preserve to experience the natural and cultural resources of the south slope of the Alaskan Range. Trails would provide hiking opportunities for visitors who would not otherwise venture into the backcountry. The number of visitors to the national park, which has increased from 200,000 to over 500,000 annually since 1980, could quadruple within ten years after construction of the center. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: None of the land for the proposed project is federally owned; in order to implement the proposed action, an appropriate land use agreement or conveyance would have to be completed. Under the proposed action, some 143 to 217 acres of vegetation would be lost or disturbed; much of this loss would also be considered a loss of general black bear habitat. While it is not anticipated that any development alternative would adversely affect wildlife population numbers, there is concern that in localized backcountry areas the presence of constructed trails and their use by hikers could seasonally displace grizzly and black bears and possibly caribou.

Preparation date: January 16, 1997 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GREYBULL VALLEY DAM AND RESERVOIR, PARK COUNTY, WYOMING. AN - 36387772; 6234 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of an off-channel dam and reservoir to supply irrigation water to farmers in the lower Greybull River Valley, located in northwest Wyoming, is proposed. The project would provide the lower Greybull River Valley agricultural community with supplemental irrigation by increasing water yield of the system during droughts, increasing efficiency of use of stored water to avoid waste, and providing timely delivery of water to irrigators. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The Blackstone Gulch Dam and Reservoir Alternative (Alternative C) would involve constructing a 115-foot-high, zoned-earth structure at the mouth of the Blackstone Gulch. The crest length of the dam would be approximately 1,400 feet at an elevation of 5,190 feet. The reservoir would have a capacity of approximately 30,000 acre-feet with a full pool surface acreage of about 700 acres. Although the Army Corp of Engineers does not identify a preferred alternative, the Bureau of Land Management's preferred alternative is the Lower Roach Gulch Alternative (Alternative B). The Lower Roach Gulch Alternative would involve constructing a 150-foot-high, zoned-earth embankment dam with a crest elevation of 4,950 feet at the mouth of an unnamed gulch west of Roach Gulch. The dam would be approximately 1,720 feet long with a crest width of 25 feet. Water for the reservoir would be diverted from the Greybull River and delivered to the reservoir via a five-mile long supply canal. Water would be released from the dam back into the Greybull River through the existing channel, which would be armored to prevent erosion. This alternative would include a minimum pool within the reservoir of approximately 2,500 acre-feet (af). At the normal high-water line, the proposed reservoir would store a total of 33,470 af, inundating approximately 700 acres. The project's total cost would be approximately $43.2 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the reservoir would provide a firm yield of irrigation water to minimize shortages for current and anticipated future farming practices in the Greybull Valley Irrigation District. The project would be built over a two-year construction period, with total direct and indirect employment increases associated with the project of 235 jobs in the first construction year and 332 jobs in the second. The increase in agricultural production would result in an estimated 88 new jobs in the regional economy. Total long-term personal income increases attributable to the project would be approximately $2.9 million annually. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Although public access would be provided to the reservoir, minimal recreational facilities are anticipated, and no plans exist for the state to stock fish due to extreme reservoir level fluctuations. About 200 acres of private land would need to be acquired for dam construction and access to borrow areas. About 715 acres of public lands would be necessary for construction access, borrow areas, dam construction access, and reservoir-inundated lands. Approximately 28.3 acres of wetlands could be adversely affected. Short-term increases in noise levels and traffic hazards, and negative effects on air and water quality, would be experienced during the construction.

AN - 36401955; 6230 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for visitor use, resource protection, and related facility development in the frontcountry of Denali National Park and Preserve (Denali) in Alaska is proposed. The vast protected area of Denali, which comprises more than six million acres, enables a spectacular array of flora and fauna to live together in a healthy natural system. Denali is the largest continuously protected area in the world. The frontcountry includes all nonwilderness area along the George Parks Highway, the entrance and headquarters area, and the park road corridor that extends 90 miles to the Kantishna airstrip. Over the past 10 to 15 years, changes in visitor profile and use have required changes in the management plans. Large commercial tour groups now dominate the visitor profiles, and their special needs and desires are not being adequately met by existing facilities. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative D), visitor facilities and services, including interpretive centers, environmental education, trails, and campgrounds, would be developed in the frontcountry to meet a wide range of visitor needs and interests. The park hotel would be closed, and the Park Service would encourage the private sector to develop visitor service facilities (accommodations, food service, and other commercial services) outside the park. The existing visitor access center would be remodeled and expanded to serve as an interpretive science center, and a visitor services building and parking would be constructed nearby. Camper convenience services would be provided in this same area, and the existing store and temporary shower building would be removed. Some buildings in the former hotel area would be adaptively used to provide an environmental education center. New permanent rest areas would be constructed at Savage and Toklat. Additional trails would be constructed primarily in the Nenana River and Savage River areas. New campsites would be developed in the entrance area, the Nenana River corridor, and in the Kantishna area. Roads would be upgraded and repaired. The estimated cost of the planned construction is $22.1 million. This final EIS, which is issued in an abbreviated format, contains corrections and revisions to the draft EIS as well as public comments and agency responses. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would improve the park's interpretative facilities, thereby enhancing visitors' appreciation of the natural beauty of the area. Improvements to roads and facilities would help to accommodate increased tourist travel. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some visitors could view the development of trails along the road corridor as an unnecessary erosion of the park's wilderness character. Facility expansion and construction would displace 42.3 acres of vegetation, most of it in the spruce forest community. The historic integrity of the Wonder Lake ranger station, the Headquarters Historic District, and the Kantishna Tailings piles could be adversely affected by construction activities.

The self-administered Middle School YRBS is a 55-item questionnaire that assesses the prevalence of six categories of behaviors that contribute substantially to death, illness, and social problems among U.S. youth and adults: (1) unintentional and intentional injuries; (2) tobacco use; (3) alcohol and other drug use; (4) sexual behaviors that contribute to unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted disease, including HIV infection; (5) dietary behaviors; and (6) physical activity. Findings in each category are detailed in narrative and chart form and compared to national and high school findings. Some findings include: (1) less seat belt use among males, less use of helmets among males, 37 percent of all students took a gun to school, 64 percent engaged in a fight, and one-third had considered suicide; (2) over 78 percent had tried cigarette smoking; (3) three in five had used alcohol, and 51 percent had used marijuana; (4) 20 percent had sexual intercourse; (5) 23 percent thought of themselves as overweight; and (6) 69 percent participated in vigorous physical activity. A chart shows ages of initiation for various survey activities. Tables break down findings by sex and grade. Suggestions are offered for the role of schools in addressing the risk behaviors examined in this survey.

Together this interagency, interdisciplinary group is working to find solutions to the water quality problems originating in Muddy Creek is a tributary of the Sun River in the Upper Missouri River Basin. The Creek intercepts return and waste flow increasing base flow, causing extensive erosion of the fine grained alluvial soils. The primary erosion mechanism is incision followed by large scale bank slumping in the creeks lower reaches. The sediment transported by Muddy Creek decreases water quality in the Sun and Missouri Rivers.

N1 - Last updated - 2016-05-27 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Riparian Area Management. Grazing Management for Riparian-Wetland Areas AN - 17172498; 4464307 AB - This document presents information from various land managers and researchers to guide livestock management in riparian areas using their unique responsiveness to accomplish management objectives. Riparian areas, as interfaces between the aquatic and upland components of the ecosystem comprise mosaics of landforms, communities, and environments within the larger landscape. The structure and processes of riparian areas, more than any other ecosystem, are influenced by their connectivity to adjacent ecosystems. An ecosystem perspective provides an ecological basis for evaluating current grazing practices and other land uses, identifying riparian management objectives, and developing future management alternatives.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-03-24 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Assessment of the hydrogeology and water quality in a near-shore well field, Sarasota, Florida AN - 16097353; 4202996 AB - The city of Sarasota, Florida, operates a downtown well field that pumps mineralized water from ground water sources to supply a reverse osmosis plant. Because of the close proximity of the well field to Sarrasota Bay and the high sulfate and chloride concentrations of groundwater supplies, a growing concern exists about the possibility of lateral movement of saltwater in a landward direction (intrusion) and vertical movement of relict seawater (upconing). In 1992, the U.S. Geological Survey began a 3-year study to evaluate the hydraulic characteristics and water quality of groundwater resources within the downtown well field and the surrounding 235 square mile study area. Delineation of the hydrogeology of the study area was based on water-quality data, aquifer test data, and extensive borehole geophysical surveys (including gamma, caliper, temperature, electrical resistivity, and flow meter logs) from the six existing production wells and from a corehole drilled as part of the study, as well as from published and unpublished reports on file at the U.S. Geological Survey, the Southwest Florida Water Management District and consultant's reports. Water-quality data was examined for spatial and temporal trends that might relate to the mechanism for observed water-quality changes. Water quality in the study area appears to be dependent upon several mechanisms, including upconing of higher system, interborehole flow between zones of varying water quality through improperly cased and corroded wells, migration of highly mineralized waters through structural deformities, and the presence of unflushed relict seawater. A numerical, groundwater flow model was developed as an interpretative tool where field-derived hydrologic characteristics could be tested. The conceptual model consisted of seven layers to represent the multilayered aquifer systems underlying the study area. Particle tracking was utilized to delineate the travel path of water as it enters the model area under a set of given conditions. Within the model area, simulated flow in the intermediate aquifer system originates primarily from the northwestern boundary. Simulated flow in the Upper Floridan aquifer originates in lower model layers (deeper flow zones) and ultimately can be traced to the southeastern and northwestern boundaries. Volumetric budgets calculated from numerical simulation of a hypothetical well field indicate that the area of contribution to the well field changes seasonally. Although ground-water flow patterns change with wet and dry seasons, most water enters the well-field flow system through lower parts of the Upper Floridan aquifer from a southeastern direction. Moreover, particle tracking indicated that groundwater flow paths with strictly lateral pathlines in model layers correspond to the intermediate aquifer system, whereas particles traced through model layers corresponding to the Upper Floridan aquifer had components of vertical and lateral flow.

Data were collected from June 1990 through December 1993. Descriptions of the watershed instrumentation, data-collection techniques, and laboratory methods used to conduct the studies are included. Data that were collected on precipitation, throughfall, soil water, ground water, and streamwater during base flow and stormflow indicate that the streams undergo episodic acidification during storms. Both streams showed decreases in pH to less than 5.0 standard units during stormflow. The acid-neutralizing capacity (ANC) of both streams decreased during stormflow, and the ANC of one of the streams, Bear Branch, became negative. The chemistries of the different types of waters that were sampled indicate that shallow subsurface water with minimal residence time in the watersheds is routed to the streams to become stormflow and is the cause of the episodic acidification observed. Three-component hydrograph separations were performed on the data collected during several storms in each watershed. The hydrograph separations of all of the storms indicate that throughfall contributed 0 to 50 percent of the stormflow, soil water contributed 0 to 80 percent, and ground water contributed 20 to 90 percent. The results of the hydrograph separations indicate that, in general, the watershed with higher hydraulic gradients tends to have shallower and shorter flow paths than the watershed with lower hydraulic gradients.

Of these species, 6 have not been reported since 1900 and 10 have not been reported since 1943. Since the 1820's, fish communities in the White River Basin have been affected by the alteration of stream habitat, overfishing, the introduction of non-native species, agriculture, and urbanization. Erosion resulting from conversion of forest land to cropland in the 1800's led to siltation of streambeds and resulted in the loss of some silt-sensitive species. In the early 1900's, the water quality of the White River was seriously degraded for 100 miles by untreated sewage from the City of Indianapolis. During the last 25 years, water quality in the basin has improved because of efforts to control water pollution. Fish communities in the basin have responded favorably to the improved water quality.

The study area is currently undergoing a rapid conversion of rural, undeveloped land to urban and suburban land that often changes the flow characteristics of the streams that drain these lands. The complex interactions of land cover, climate, soils, topography, channel characteristics, and groundwater flow patterns determine the surface-water hydrology of the study area and require a complex numerical model to assess the impact of urbanization on streamflows. The U.S. Geological Survey completed this investigation in cooperation with the Storm Drainage and Surface Water Management Utility within the Pierce County Department of Public Works to describe the important rainfall-runoff processes within the study area and to develop a simulation model to be used as a tool to predict changes in runoff characteristics resulting from changes in land use. The conceptual model, a qualitative representation of the study basins, links the physical characteristics to the runoff process of the study basins. The model incorporates 11 generalizations identified by the investigation, eight of which describe runoff from hillslopes, and three that account for the effects of channel characteristics and ground-water flow patterns on runoff. The investigation showed the importance of defining the groundwater flow boundaries and demonstrated a simple method of simulating the influence of the regional ground-water aquifer on streamflows. In the Clover Creek Basin model, groundwater flow boundaries were used to define subbasins containing mostly glacial outwash soils and not containing any surface drainage channels. In the Clear-Clarks Basin model, groundwater flow boundaries outlined a recharge area outside the surface-water boundaries of the basin that was incorporated into the model in order to provide sufficient water to balance simulated ground-water outflows to the creeks. Results indicate that the models accurately simulate the important runoff processes in the study area and therefore confirm the validity of the conceptual model. Observed and simulated streamflows were compared for all the stream gaging stations. For the second year of comparisons, the validation period, the largest difference between simulated annual runoff and observed annual runoff was 2.72 inches or 25.7 percent for one of the catchment sites, and the differences for the remainder of sites ranged from -12.0 to 15.8 percent. Percentage differences for winter and spring runoff range from -28.9 to 42.2 percent. Percentage differences for summer runoff are the highest, although actual differences are low; the highest percentage difference is 700 percent, representing an actual difference of only 0.07 inch. Two thirds of the percentage differences between simulated and observed peak flows for the three largest peaks of the water year at each station were less than 27 percent. Percentage differences between simulated and observed storm runoff volumes for the three largest storms at the continuous-recording streamflow stations ranged from -22.9 to 84.6 percent, with two-thirds of the differences being less than 19 percent. Percentage differences between simulated and observed daily mean discharges had absolute errors ranging from 8.6 to 197.7 percent. Long-term simulations of 30 and 31 years confirmed the stability of the models by not simulating unreasonable ranges of volumes in the simulated ground-water reservoirs or unreasonable peak streamflows.

Both cities are near the centers of large (greater than 150 feet) potentiometric declines in the Middendorf aquifer. In 1989, the diameter of the depressions was approximately 40 miles at Charleston and 15 miles at Florence. The potentiometric decline occurred between predevelopment (1926) and 1982 near Florence, and between predevelopment (1879) and 1989 near Charleston. The city of Charleston does not withdraw water from these aquifers; however, some of the small communities in the area use these aquifers for a potable water supply. The model simulates flow in and between four aquifer systems. The model has a variable-cell-size grid, and spans the Coastal Plain from the Savannah River in the southwest to the Cape Fear Arch in the northeast, and from the Fall Line in the northwest to approximately 30 miles offshore to the southeast. Model-grid cell size is 1 by 1 mile in a 48 by 48 mile area centered in Charleston, and in a 36 by 48 mile area centered in Florence. The model cell size gradually increases to a maximum of 4 by 4 miles outside the two study areas. The entire grid consists of 115 by 127 cells and covers an area of 39,936 square miles. The model was calibrated to historical water-level data. The calibration relied on three techniques: (1) matching simulated and observed potentiometric map surfaces, (2) statistical comparison of observed and simulated heads, and (3) comparison of observed and simulated well hydrographs. Systematic changes in model parameters showed that simulated heads are most sensitive to changes in aquifer transmissivity. Eight predictive groundwater-use scenarios were simulated for the Mount Pleasant area, which presently (1993) uses the Middendorf aquifer as a sole-source of potable water. These simulations use various combinations of spatial distribution, and injection of treated wastewater effluent for existing and future Middendorf aquifer wells.

Nationwide, nutrients have been identified as one of the primary nationwide water-quality concerns and are of particular interest in the South Platte River Basin where nutrient concentrations are large compared to concentrations in other NAWQA river basins. This report presents estimates of the magnitude of nutrient-source inputs to the South Platte River Basin, describes nutrient concentrations and loads in the South Platte River during different seasons, and presents comparisons of nutrient inputs to instream nutrient loads. Annual nutrient inputs to the basin were estimated to be 306,000 tons of nitrogen and 41,000 tons of phosphorus. The principal nutrient sources were wastewater-treatment plants, fertilizer and manure applications, and atmospheric deposition. To characterize nutrient concentrations and loads in the South Platte River during different seasons, five nutrient synoptic samplings were conducted during.

During 1986-88, the U.S. Geological Survey studied the distribution of groundwater levels in the alluvial plain between Moose Creek Dam and the confluence of the Tanana and Chena Rivers. Moose Creek Dam is a flood-control structure on the Chena River that impounds water only during high flows in the Chena River or during tests of the dam's control gates. Groundwaterlevel information is needed to help design and place septic systems, buildings, and drainage structures. Using 38 existing wells and 83 wells drilled for this study during 1986 and 1987, groundwater levels were measured to determine the depth to the water table, its seasonal variation, and its relation to changes in river and reservoir stages. Water levels were continuously measured in 10 wells and periodically measured in 110 other wells until August 1988. During 1989, water levels were measured at least once in 59 wells. Three wells were equipped with water-level recorders through 1993. River stages were measured continuously at one gaging station on the Tanana River and at two stations on the Chena River. During summer months of 1986-88, stages and discharges in the Chena River were generally less than long-term mean monthly values, whereas mean monthly stages and discharges in the Tanana River fluctuated above and below long-term mean monthly values. Depths to water in monitoring wells ranged from slightly above land surface to about 21 feet below land surface. Depths to water in the alluvial plain were within 10 feet of land surface in most areas, but were within 5 feet of land surface in many low-lying areas. In general, the water table sloped to the northwest, from the Tanana River to the Chena River, at a gradient of about 4 feet per mile. Water levels in wells within about half a mile of either river responded rapidly to changes in river stage. During summer months of 1989-93, stages and discharges in the Chena River were generally higher than those during 1986-88, whereas stages and discharges in the Tanana River were similar to those during 1986-88. During 1989, peak water levels were higher in more than half the wells measured than during peak levels observed during 1986-88. Peak water levels were also 1.9 to 3.3 feet higher in 1991 or 1992 than peak values during 1986-88 in three wells equipped with water-level recorders. Water levels in wells near Moose Creek Dam responded rapidly to changes in water levels behind the dam. During one impoundment, water levels in a well 0.1 mile from the dam rose approximately 7 feet, to 4.8 feet below land surface.

These depressions, depending on their locations, are the result of withdrawals from agricultural, industrial, domestic and public-supply wells, diffuse upward leakage, and discharge from springs. Submerged springs that discharge into the St. Johns River between Jacksonville and Green Cove Springs have been thought to exist, but locating and evaluating these springs had not been attempted before this investigation. Thermal infrared imagery, seismic reflection, and numerous interviews with local residents were used to locate springs. An airborne thermal infrared survey was conducted along a section of the St. Johns River in northeastern Florida during February 1992 to detect possible sources of groundwater discharge to the river. An infrared image displayed one thermal anomaly in the St. Johns River which is associated with a previously unknown spring discharge from the Floridan aquifer system. Thermal anomalies also were observed at six locations where municipal facilities discharge treated wastewater to the river. Results of seismic reflection surveys indicate the presence of collapse and other karst features underlying the St. Johns River. These features indicate that the surficial deposits and the Hawthorn Formation that underlie the river probably do not consist of continuous beds. The collapse or deformation of the Hawthorn Formation or the presence of permeable sediment of localized extent could create zones of relatively high vertical leakance. This could provide a more direct hydraulic connection between the Upper Floridan aquifer and the river. Water samples collected from the only submerged spring in the St. Johns River within the Jacksonville-Green Cove Springs reach indicate that the source of the water is the Floridan aquifer system. Chloride and sulfate concentrations were 12 and 340 milligrams per liter, respectively. Specific conductance was 826 microsiemens per centimeter and the temperature of the water discharging from the spring was 25.1 degrees Celsius. The ratio of 87 Strontium/86 Strontium also indicates that the springwater has been in contact with rock materials of Eocene age, providing additional evidence that the springwater is derived from the Floridan aquifer system.

The 2.2-cubic-yard cement-lined pit was operated from 1980 to 1983 by a contractor to the U.S. Army Air Defense Artillery Center and Fort Bliss. The pit, located on the Fort Bliss military reservation in El Paso, Texas, was used for disposal and evaporation of chromic acid waste generated from chrome plating operations. The site was closed in 1989, and the Texas Natural Resources Conservation Commission issued permit number HW-50296 (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency number TX4213720101), which approved and implemented post-closure care for the Chromic Acid Pit site. In accordance with an approved post-closure plan, the U.S. Geological Survey is cooperating with the U.S. Army in monitoring and evaluating groundwater quality at the site. One upgradient groundwater monitoring well (MW1) and two downgradient groundwater monitoring wells (MW2 and MW3), installed adjacent to the chromic acid pit, are monitored on a quarterly basis. Groundwater sampling of these wells by the U.S. Geological Survey began in December 1993. The groundwater level, measured in a production well located approximately 1,700 feet southeast of the Chromic Acid Pit site, has declined about 29.43 feet from 1982 to 1995. Depth to water at the Chromic Acid Pit site in September 1995 was 284.2 to 286.5 feet below land surface; groundwater flow at the water table is assumed to be toward the southeast. Groundwater samples collected from monitoring wells at the Chromic Acid Pit site during water year 1995 contained dissolved-solids concentrations of 481 to 516 milligrams per liter. Total chromium concentrations detected above the laboratory reporting limit ranged from 0.0061 to 0.030 milligram per liter; dissolved chromium concentrations ranged from 0.0040 to 0.010 milligram per liter. Nitrate as nitrogen concentrations ranged from 2.1 to 2.8 milligrams per liter; nitrite plus nitrate as nitrogen concentrations ranged from 2.4 to 3.2 milligrams per liter. Water samples from wells MW1 and MW2 were analyzed for volatile organic compounds for the first quarter; no confirmed volatile organic compounds were detected above laboratory reporting limits. Detected chemical concentrations in water from the chromic acid pit monitoring wells during the four sampling periods were below U.S. Environmental Protection Agency-established maximum contaminant levels for public drinking-water supplies. Overall, water-quality characteristics of water from the chromic acid pit groundwater monitoring wells are similar to those of other wells in the surrounding area. Statistical analyses were performed on 56 of the chemical constituents analyzed for in groundwater from the chromic acid pit monitoring wells. Concentrations of chloride, fluoride, sulfate, and potassium were significantly less in water from one or both downgradient wells than in water from the upgradient well. Concentrations of nitrate as nitrogen, nitrite plus nitrate as nitrogen, and dissolved solids were significantly greater in water from the downgradient wells than in water from the upgradient well. Concentrations of nitrate as nitrogen, chloride, and potassium were significantly different in water from the two downgradient wells. Statistical analysis of chemical constituents in water from the chromic acid pit monitoring wells did not appear to indicate a release of hazardous chemicals from the chromic acid pit. There was no indication of groundwater contamination in either downgradient well. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services, Box 25286, Denver Federal Center, Denver, CO 80225 (USA). 1997.

To investigate these effects, water-quality and streamflow data were collected from 19 surface-water sites in the basin over a 16-month period from January 1991 through April 1992. These data were used to understand the effects of surficial geology, land-use practices, and wastewater disposal practices on surface-water quality within the basin. The basin was divided into four drainage subbasins with dissimilar hydrogeologic, land-use, and water-quality characteristics. In the Upper Clover Creek subbasin, the high permeability of surficial geologic materials promotes infiltration of precipitation to ground water and thus attenuates the response of streams to rainfall. Significant interaction occurs between surface and ground water in this subbasin, and nitrate concentrations and specific conductance values, similar to those found historically in local ground water, indicate that sources such as subsurface waste-disposal systems and fertilizers are affecting surface-water quality in this area. In the Spanaway subbasin, the presence of Spanaway and Tule Lakes affects water quality, primarily because of the reduced velocity and long residence time of water in the lakes. Reduced water velocity and long residence times (1) cause settling of suspended materials, thereby reducing concentrations of suspended sediment and constituents that are bound to the sediment; (2) promote biological activity, which tends to trap nutrients in the lakes; and (3) allow dispersion to attenuate peaks in discharge and water-quality constituent concentrations. In the North Fork subbasin, the low permeability of surficial geologic materials and areas of intensive land development inhibit infiltration of precipitation and thus promote surface runoff to streams. Surface pathways provide little attenuation of storm runoff and result in rapid increases in stream discharge in response to rainfall. Substantial increases in concentrations of constituents associated with surface wash off, for example, suspended sediment, ammonia, phosphorus, and fecal coliform, also were observed in this subbasin during rainfall. In the Lower Clover Creek subbasin, which is the most downstream subbasin, stream-discharge and water-quality characteristics show the integrated effects of the entire basin. The data show that further characterization of local ground water and discharge from stormwater outfalls entering Clover Creek and its tributaries would be necessary to successfully apply a numerical water-quality model to the basin.

Water samples were collected from 268 wells in 12 counties from 1984 through 1987 and were analyzed for nitrate concentrations; water samples from 210 of the wells were analyzed for atrazine. A number of hydrochemical, climatic, hydrologic, soil, and land-use explanatory variables, which were believed to affect the contamination of ground water by agricultural chemicals, were identified and quantified for each of the 268 wells. Multiple regression methods were used to determine which explanatory variables were statistically related to groundwater concentrations of nitrate and atrazine. Regression models predicting nitrate and atrazine concentrations were produced that explained from about 50 to 68 percent of the variation in the dependent variables. Geographic-information-system methods were used to produce maps predicting nitrate and atrazine concentrations in ground water for one study area using selected regression and logistic models. The results of this study indicate that multiple regression techniques coupled with geographic information systems can be an effective means of identifying areas of potential groundwater contamination by nitrate and atrazine.

The Duck River is the principal source of publicly-supplied water in the study area providing a total of 15.6 million gallons per day (Mgal/d) in 1993 to the cities of Columbia, Lewisburg, Shelbyville, part of southern Williamson County, and several smaller communities. Municipal water use increased 19 percent from 1980 to 1993 (from 14.5 to 17.2 Mgal /d). Based on certain assumptions about socioeconomic conditions and future development in the basin, water demand should continue to increase through 2050. Projections of municipal water demand for the study area from 1993 to 2015 were made using econometric and single-coefficient (unit-use) requirement models of the per capita type. The models are part of the Institute for Water Resources-Municipal and Industrial Needs System, IWR-MAIN. Socioeconomic data for 1993 were utilized to calibrate the models. Projections of water demand in the study area from 2015 to 2050 were made using a single-coefficient requirement model. A gross per capita use value (unit-requirement) was estimated for each water-service area based on the results generated by IWR-MAIN for year 2015. The gross per capita estimate for 2015 was applied to population projections for year 2050 to calculate water demand. Population was projected using the log-linear form of the Box-Cox regression model. Water demand was simulated for two scenarios. The scenarios were suggested by various planning agencies associated with the study area. The first scenario reflects a steady growth pattern based on present demographic and socioeconomic conditions in the Bedford, Marshall, and Maury/southern Williamson water-service areas. The second scenario considers steady growth in the Bedford and Marshall water-service areas and additional industrial and residential development in the Maury/southern Williamson water-service area beginning in 2000. For the study area, water demand for scenario one shows an increase of 121 percent (from 17.2 to 38 Mgal/d) from 1993 to 2050. In scenario two, simulated water demand increases 150 percent (17.2 to 43 Mgal /d) from 1993 to 2050.

In the Hatboro area, the Stockton Formation strikes approximately N. 65 E. and dips approximately 9 NW. The rocks are chiefly arkosic sandstone and siltstone. Rocks of the Stockton Formation form a complex, heterogeneous, multiaquifer system consisting of a series of gently dipping lithologic units with different hydraulic properties. Most ground water in the unweathered zone moves through a network of interconnecting secondary openings-fractures, bedding planes, and joints. Ground water is unconfined in the shallower part of the aquifer and semiconfined or confined in the deeper part of the aquifer. Nearly all deep wells in the Stockton Formation are open to several water-bearing zones and are multiaquifer wells. Each water-bearing zone usually has a different hydraulic head. Where differences in hydraulic head exist between water-bearing zones, water in the well bore flows under nonpumping conditions in the direction of decreasing head. Determination of the potential for borehole flow was based on caliper, natural-gamma, single-point-resistance, fluid-resistivity, and (or) fluid-temperature logs that were run in 162 boreholes 31 to 655 feet deep. The direction and rate of borehole-fluid movement were determined in 83 boreholes by the brine-tracing method and in 10 boreholes by use of a heat-pulse flowmeter. Borehole flow was measurable in 65 of the 93 boreholes (70 percent). Ground-water contamination by volatile organic compounds (VOC's) is widespread in the study area. Detectable concentrations of VOC's were present in water samples from all 24 wells sampled in Hatboro Borough and in water samples from 10 of 14 wells (71 percent) sampled in Warminster Township. Samples of borehole flow from nine boreholes in the industrial area of Hatboro were collected for laboratory analysis to estimate the quantity of VOC's in borehole flow. Downward flow was measured in all of these boreholes. Concentrations of TCE, TCA, and 1,1-DCE as great as 5,800, 1,400, and 260 micrograms per liter, respectively, show that some water moving downward in the aquifer through these open boreholes is highly contaminated and that open boreholes may contribute substantially to groundwater contamination. An estimated 14.7 gallons per year of VOC's were moving downward through the nine open boreholes sampled from the contaminated, upper part of the aquifer to the lower part, which is tapped by public supply wells. Borehole geophysical logs were used as a guide to design and construct monitor-well networks at three National Priorities List sites in the area. An open borehole was drilled, and a suite of geophysical logs was run. Interpretation of geophysical logs enabled the identification of water-bearing zones that produce and receive water; these are zones that should not be connected. From the logs, discrete intervals to be monitored were selected. In the Stockton Formation, the same water-bearing zone may not be intersected in adjacent boreholes, especially if it is a vertical fracture with a different magnetic orientation than that of the adjacent boreholes. In most areas of the Stockton Formation, depth of water-bearing zones in an area cannot be determined from one borehole. Each borehole should be logged and evaluated separately.

Data used to calibrate the BRANCH model included water-level data at four locations on the Cooper River and two locations on the Wando River, measured tidal-cycle streamflows at five locations on the Wando River, and simulated tidal-cycle streamflows (using an existing validated BRANCH model of the Cooper River) for four locations on the Cooper River. The BRANCH model was used to generate the necessary hydraulic data used in the BLTM model. The BLTM model was calibrated and validated using time series of salinity concentrations at two locations on the Cooper River and at two locations on the Wando River. Successful calibration and validation of the BRANCH and BLTM models to water levels, stream flows, and salinity were achieved after applying a positive 0.45 foot datum correction to the downstream boundary. The sensitivity of the simulated salinity concentrations to changes in the downstream gage datum, channel geometry, and roughness coefficient in the BRANCH model, and to the dispersion factor in the BLTM model was evaluated. The simulated salinity concentrations were most sensitive to changes in the downstream gage datum. A decrease of 0.5 feet in the downstream gage datum increased the simulated 3-day mean salinity concentration by 107 percent (12.7 to 26.3 parts per thousand). The range of the salinity concentration went from a tidal oscillation with a standard deviation of 3.9 parts per thousand to a nearly constant concentration with a standard deviation of 0.0 parts per thousand. An increase in the downstream gage datum decreased the simulated 3-day mean salinity concentration by 47 percent (12.7 to 6.7 parts per thousand) and decreased the standard deviation from 3.9 to 3.4 parts per thousand.

The three aquifers composing the shallow system are, in order of increasing depth, the unconfined Holly Beach water-bearing zone and the confined estuarine sand and Cohansey aquifers. The changes to the groundwater system have been greatest in the confined aquifers near the three major well fields on the Cape May peninsula. Formerly productive water-supply wells have been abandoned because of saltwater contamination. Concern about anthropogenic contamination has prevented shifting of withdrawals to the unconfined aquifer. Surface-water sources have also been little used. Further development on the peninsula involving increased water demand will exacerbate the current saltwater-encroachment problems. The purpose of this study was to test the feasibility of possible water-supply-development alternatives by use of predictive groundwater flow simulations. The alternatives involve (1) injection of tertiary-treated wastewater to replenish aquifer storage and create a hydraulic barrier to saltwater encroachment, (2) withdrawal of brackish water in order to create a hydraulic barrier, (3) conjunctive use of ground water and surface water, enabling the reduction of groundwater withdrawals, and (4) redistribution of withdrawals inland to the unconfined aquifer. Results of these simulations can potentially be used in the design of a water-supply-development strategy that preserves supply and a monitoring program that ensures early warning of saltwater encroachment, thereby allowing sufficient time for development of an alternative supply. The water-supply-development alternatives were evaluated by comparison of results of predictive simulations made with a previously calibrated groundwater flow model of the shallow aquifer system. The quasi-three-dimensional sharp-interface model was calibrated to 1988 annual average hydrologic conditions. The planning period for the predictive simulations is 1989-2049. For the planning period, total public-supply withdrawals were increased 100 percent over average 1983-88 withdrawals. Results of a baseline simulation involving only the increased withdrawals were compared to each of the simulated alternatives, which also include the withdrawals. Hydraulic heads, saltwater-freshwater interface movement, and groundwater flows were compared. Simulation results indicate that the barrier-injection or barrier-withdrawal scheme could be useful in managing the water supply for a specific location. The conjunctive-use scheme would provide a marginal regional hydrologic benefit. Redistribution of withdrawals appears to be the only regional alternative that would result in recovery of groundwater levels and would substantially slow saltwater encroachment; however, anthropogenic land-surface contamination of the unconfined aquifer would have to be considered if the redistribution alternative is acted upon.

The modeled area includes a 4.3-square-mile area that extends from Picatinny Lake to the Rockaway River. Most of the study area is bounded by the natural hydrologic boundaries of the groundwater system. Geophysical logs, lithologic logs, particle-size data, and core data from selected wells and surface geophysical data were analyzed to define the hydrogeologic framework. Hydrogeologic sections and thickness maps define six permeable and three low-permeability layers that are represented in the model as aquifers and confining units, respectively. Hydrologic data incorporated in the model include a rate of recharge from precipitation of 22 inches per year, estimated from long-term precipitation records and estimates of evapotranspiration. Additional recharge from infiltration along valleys was estimated from measured discharge of springs along the adjacent valley walls and from estimates of runoff from upland drainage that flows to the valley floor. Horizontal and vertical hydraulic conductivities of permeable and low-permeability layers were estimated from examination of aquifer-test data, gamma-ray logs, borehole cuttings, and previously published data. Horizontal hydraulic conductivities in glacial sediments range from 10 to 380 feet per day. Vertical hydraulic conductivities of the low-permeability layers range from 0.01 to 0.7 feet per day. The model was calibrated by simulating steady-state conditions during 1989-93 and by closely matching simulated and measured groundwater levels, vertical groundwater-head differences, and streamflow gain and loss. Simulated steady-state potentiometricsurface maps produced for the six permeable layers indicate that ground water in the unconfined material within Picatinny Arsenal flows predominantly toward the center of the valley, where it discharges to Green Pond Brook. Beneath the upper confining unit, ground water flows southwestward, down the valley. Between First Street and Farley Avenue, the upper confining unit pinches out near the valley walls, resulting in a major input of water to, and causing a local potentiometric high in, the underlying aquifer layers. Groundwater-flow directions southwest of the southern arsenal boundary are predominantly to the Rockaway River.

Applying these techniques to watersheds in west-central Florida requires that some of the empirical relationships be extrapolated beyond tested ranges. As a result, there is uncertainty as to the accuracy of these estimates. Sixty-six storms occurring in 15 west-central Florida watersheds were initially modeled using the Rational Method, the U.S. Geological Survey Regional Regression Equations, the Natural Resources Conservation Service TR-20 model, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Hydrologic Engineering Center-1 model, and the Environmental Protection Agency Storm Water Management Model. The techniques were applied according to the guidelines specified in the user manuals or standard engineering textbooks as though no field data were available and the selection of input parameters was not influenced by observed data. Computed estimates were compared with observed runoff to evaluate the accuracy of the techniques. One watershed was eliminated from further evaluation when it was determined that the area contributing runoff to the stream varies with the amount and intensity of rainfall. Therefore, further evaluation and modification of the input parameters were made for only 62 storms in 14 watersheds. Estimates of peak discharges and runoff volumes were initially made for watersheds in west-central Florida using recommended procedures, then compared to observed peak discharges and runoff volumes. Subsequently, they were modified to increase accuracy for this area. The same methods used during the study could be used in other parts of the world to evaluate the accuracy of standard methods for estimating stormwater runoff.

Eddy-correlation measurements of latent (E) and sensible (H) heat flux were made monthly for a few days at a time, and the PT model was used to estimate E between times of measurement during the 1994 water year. A water-budget analysis for the two-basin area indicated that over a 30-year period (1965-94) annual rainfall was 51.7 inches. Of the annual rainfall, ET accounted for about 37.9 inches; springflow accounted for 13.1 inches; and the remaining 0.7 inch was accounted for by streamflow, consumptive use, and by net change in storage. For the same 30-year period, the annual estimate of ET for the Silver Springs basin was 37.6 inches and was 38.5 inches for the Rainbow Springs basin. Wet- and dry-season estimates of ET for each basin averaged between nearly 19 inches and 20 inches, indicating that like rainfall, ET rates during the 4-month wet season were about twice the ET rates during the 8-month dry season. Wet-season estimates of ET for the Rainbow Springs and Silver Springs basins decreased 2.7 inches, and 3.4 inches, respectively, over the 30-year period; whereas, dry-season estimates for the basins decreased about 0.4 inches and 1.0 inches, respectively, over the 30-year period. ET rates computed using the modified PT model were compared to rates computed from the water budget for the 1994 water year. Annual ET, computed using the PT model, was 32.0 inches which also was nearly the same as the ET water-budget estimate of 31.7 inches computed for the Rainbow Springs and Silver Springs basins. Modeled ET rates for 1994 ranged from 14.4 inches per year in January to 51.6 inches per year in May. Water-budget ET rates for 1994 ranged from 12.0 inches per year in March, to 61.2 inches per year in July. Potential evapotranspiration rates for 1994 averaged 46.8 inches per year, and ranged from 21.6 inches per year in January to 74.4 inches per year in May. Lake evaporation rates averaged 47.1 inches per year and ranged from 18.0 inches per year in January to 72.0 inches per year in May 1994.

At-site data on low-flow characteristics of streamflow under natural conditions are given for 94 continuous-record gaging stations in Maryland, Delaware, and surrounding States, and for 131 low-flow partial-record gaging stations in Maryland and Delaware. Equations and transfer methods are developed to estimate low-flow characteristics at ungaged stream sites in Maryland and Delaware for average 7-, 14-, and 30-consecutive-day low-flow discharges for recurrence intervals of 2, 10, and 20 years. Estimates of the accuracy of the methods are presented. Maryland and Delaware are divided into four regions on the basis of physiography and the results of regression analyses. Equations are developed from a generalized least-squares multiple regression technique to estimate low-flow characteristics for the Eastern Shore region, the eastern-Piedmont region, and the western region. Adjustments are necessary to low-flow discharges estimated from the equation for the western region because of the effects of carbonate rocks on low flows. An equation is developed on the basis of a distance-weighted average of low-flow discharges at gaging stations to estimate low-flow characteristics for the southern region. Two methods are developed for transferring low-flow characteristics to ungaged sites on gaged streams. One method transfers low-flow characteristics to an ungaged site either upstream or downstream from a gaging station and the other method transfers the characteristics to an ungaged site between gaging stations.

The pond and wetland were arranged in series so that stormwater first enters the pond and overflows into the wetland before spilling over to the regional stream system. Several principal factors that contribute to constituent retention were examined, including changes in pond-water quality between storms, stormwater quality, and pond-water flushing during storms. A simple, analytical pond-water mixing model was used as the basis for interpreting changes in retention efficiencies caused by pond modification. Retention efficiencies were calculated by a modified event-mean concentration efficiency method using a minimum variance unbiased estimator approach. The results of this study generally support the hypothesis that changes in the geometry of stormwater treatment systems can significantly affect the constituent retention efficiency of the pond and wetland system. However, the results also indicate that these changes in efficiency are caused not only by changes in residence time, but also by changes in stormwater mixing and pond water flushing during storms. Additionally, the use of average efficiencies as indications of treatment effectiveness may fail to account for biases associated with sample distribution and independent physical properties of the system, such as the range and concentrations of constituents in stormwater inflows and stormwater volume. Changes in retention efficiencies varied among chemical constituents and were significantly different in the pond and wetland. Retention efficiency was related to inflow concentration for most constituents. Increased flushing of the pond after modification caused decreases in retention efficiencies for constituents that concentrate in the pond between storms (dissolved solids) and increases in retention efficiency for constituents that settle out of pond and wetland storage between storms. The greatest increase in retention efficiencies in the detention pond was observed for total lead, which increased from 19 percent before modification to 73 percent after modification. However, retention efficiencies for nutrients and suspended constituents decreased in the wetland after modification. This was probably because of the flushing of accumulated sediments as a result of a change in flow path through the wetland. As a result, the overall effect of modification on the system (pond and wetland retention efficiencies combined) was a reduction in retention efficiency for all but two constituents (total zinc and total ammonia nitrogen).

Although there have been several laboratory studies and some field experiments, quantitative information on the performance of ADCP's under field conditions is relatively rare but essential to proper assessment of the potential uses and limitations of these instruments. This study was a comparative evaluation of river discharge data and ADCP data collected with conventional methods at 12 selected U.S. Geological Survey streamflow-gaging stations in the continental United States. ADCP discharge measurements were made at the 12 sites in 1994. Twenty-six of the 31 measurements differed by less than 5 percent from the discharges determined with conventional methods. All 31 ADCP measurements were within 8 percent of the conventional method discharges. The standard deviations of the ADCP measurements ranged from approximately 1 to 6 percent and were generally higher than the measurement errors predicted by error-propagation analysis of ADCP instrument performance. These error-prediction methods assume that the largest component of ADCP discharge measurement error is instrument related. The larger standard deviations indicate that substantial portions of measurement error may be attributable to sources unrelated to ADCP electronics or signal processing and are functions of the field environment.

The dimensionless hydrograph can be used with an estimate of peak flow and basin lagtime to synthesize a design flood hydrograph for urban basins in North Carolina. Peak flows can be estimated from a number of available techniques; a procedure for estimating basin lagtime from main channel length, stream slope, and percentage of impervious area was developed from data collected at 50 sites and is presented in this report. The North Carolina dimensionless hydrograph provides satisfactory predictions of flood hydrographs in all regions of the State except for basins in or near Asheville where the method overestimated 11 of 12 measured hydrographs. A previously developed dimensionless hydrograph for urban basins in the Piedmont and upper Coastal Plain of South Carolina provides better flood-hydrograph predictions for the Asheville basins and has a standard error of 21 percent as compared to 41 percent for the North Carolina dimensionless hydrograph.

When these restrictions are applied, the following standard equation is a useful tool in estimating the resistance of the formation water: F = Ro/Rw, where F is the formation factor, which is a function of the effective porosity; Ro is the resistivity of a formation that is 100 percent saturated with interstitial water; and Rw is the resistivity of the water in the saturated zone. However, arenaceous aquifers can have electrical resistivities that are not directly related to resistivity of water or porosity. Surface conductivity and ion exchange are significant factors when the sediments are clay bearing. The solid constituents are a major component of the parameters needed to solve the equation for formation-water resistivity and estimates of aquifer permeability. A correction process needs to be applied to adjust the variables, Ro and F, to the equivalent of clean sand. This report presents an empirical method of using the neutron log and the electrical-resistivity values from long- and short-normal resistivity logs to correct for fine-grained material and the subsequent effects of low impedance to electrical flow that are not related to the resistance of formation water.

The study area was between two streamflow gaging stations located about 30.5 river miles apart on the Cache River. Ground water flow was from northwest to southeast with some diversion toward the Cache River. Hydraulic connection between the surface water and the alluvial aquifer is indicated by nearly equal changes in surface-water and ground water levels near the Cache River. Diurnal fluctuations of hydraulic head ranged from more than 0 to 0.38 feet and were caused by evapotranspiration. Changes in hydraulic head of the alluvial aquifer beneath the wetland lagged behind stage fluctuations and created the potential for changes in ground water movement. Differences between surface-water levels in the wetland and stage of the Cache River created a frequently occurring local groundwater flow condition in which surface water in the wetland seeped into the upper part of the alluvial aquifer and then seeped into the Cache River. When the Cache River flooded the wetland, ground water consistently seeped to the surface during falling surface-water stage and surface water seeped into the ground during rising surface-water stage. Groundwater flow was a minor component of the water budget, accounting for less than 1 percent of both inflow and outflow. Surface-water drainage from the study area through diversion canals was not accounted for in the water budget and may be the reason for a surplus of water in the budget. Even though groundwater flow volume is small compared to other water budget components, groundwater seepage to the wetland surface may still be vital to some wetland functions.

The study focused on land serviced by the Bureau of Reclamation Klamath Project, which supplies irrigation water to agricultural land in the Klamath Basin and the Lost River Basin. The Tule Lake and Lower Klamath National Wildlife Refuges, managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, are in the study area. These refuges provide critical resting and breeding habitat for waterfowl on the Pacific flyway and are dependent on irrigation drainwater from upstream agriculture for most of their water supply. Water-quality characteristics throughout the study area were typical of highly eutrophic systems during the summer months of 1991 and 1992. Dissolved-oxygen concentrations and pH tended to fluctuate each day in response to diurnal patterns of photosynthesis, and frequently exceeded criteria for protection of aquatic organisms. Nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations were generally at or above threshold levels characteristic of eutrophic lakes and streams. At most sites the bulk of dissolved nitrogen was organically bound. Elevated ammonia concentrations were common in the study area, especially downstream of drain inputs. High pH of water increased the toxicity of ammonia, and concentrations exceeded criteria at sites upstream and downstream of irrigated land. Concentrations of ammonia in samples from small drains on the Tule Lake refuge leaseland were higher than those measured in the larger, integrating drains at primary monitoring sites. The mean ammonia concentration in leaseland drains [1.21 milligrams per liter (mg/L)] was significantly higher than the mean concentration in canals delivering water to the leaseland fields (0.065 mg/L) and higher than concentrations reported to be lethal to Daphnia magna (median lethal concentration of 0.66 mg/L). Dissolved-oxygen concentrations also were lower, and Daphnia survivability measured during in situ bioassays was correspondingly lower in the leaseland drains than in water delivery canals. In static laboratory bioassays, water samples collected at the primary monitoring sites caused toxicity in up to 78 percent of Lemna minor tests, in up to 49 percent of Xenopus laevis tests, in 17 percent and 8 percent of Hyalella azteca and Pimephales promelas tests, respectively, and 0 percent in Daphnia magna tests. In situ exposure at the sites caused mortality in more than 83 percent of Pimephales tests and in more than 41 percent of Daphnia and Hyalella tests. Pesticides were frequently detected in water samples collected at the monitoring sites during the 1991 and 1992 irrigation seasons. Among the most frequently detected compounds were the herbicides simazine, metribuzin, EPTC, and metolachlor and the insecticide terbufos. All the insecticides detected were at concentrations substantially below acute toxicity values reported for aquatic organisms. Residues of the trace elements selenium, mercury, and arsenic in algae, invertebrates, fish, and avian eggs revealed no bioaccumulation problems. Concentrations of organochlorine compounds, especially of p,p' DDE, were associated with a mean 11-percent eggshell thinning in white-faced ibis. However, ibis populations appear to be increasing, and some eggs of ibis were relatively low in DDE concentration. DDE concentrations in eggs of western grebes were not as high as in the eggs of ibis. Concentrations and types of organochlorine compounds detected in grebe and ibis eggs were highly variable, indicating that the birds were exposed to these compounds outside the basin. Fish and invertebrates inhabiting drainwater were representative of pollution-tolerant species assemblages. The aquatic communities retained little of their historic ecological structure.

The estimated total groundwater pumpage in 1990 was about 340,000 acre-feet. Ground water in the study area is pumped mainly from Quaternary sediment; lesser amounts are withdrawn from Tertiary volcanic materials. Large parts of the area are used for agriculture, and about two and one-half times as much ground water was pumped for irrigation as for either public-supply or industrial needs. Estimates of groundwater pumpage for irrigation in the central part of the Willamette Valley were generated by using image-processing techniques and Landsat Thematic Mapper data. Field data and published reports were used to estimate pumpage for irrigation in other parts of the study area. Information on public-supply and industrial pumpage was collected from Federal, State, and private organizations and individuals.

The model simulated ground-water flow in 12 hydrostratigraphic units representing all of the major sources of ground water from aquifers of Jurassic and younger age. Ten map reports in the U.S. Geological Survey Hydrologic Investigations Atlas 720 series were prepared in conjunction with this investigation. The units that were described in the atlases were the San Jose, Nacimiento, and Animas Formations; Ojo Alamo Sandstone; Kirtland Shale and Fruitland Formation; Pictured Cliffs Sandstone; Cliff House Sandstone; Menefee Formation; Point Lookout Sandstone; Gallup Sandstone; Dakota Sandstone; and Morrison Formation. Additional descriptions of the alluvial and landslide deposits, Chuska and Crevasse Canyon Sandstones, Lewis and Mancos Shales, Wanakah Formation, and Entrada Sandstone are included in this report. Much of the information in the HA-720 series was generated from digital computer data bases that were directly usable by the computer for compilation of input data for the model. In essence, the major components of the ground-water-flow model were described and documented in the series of hydrologic atlases. The primary finding resulting from the ground-water-flow simulation was that boundary conditions and internal geometry of the aquifers are the major controls of steady-state ground-water flow and hydraulic heads in the San Juan Basin. Another significant finding was that the computed steady-state ground-water flux is a very minor component (about 1 percent) of the total water budget of the basin.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-10-08 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Hydrogeology and groundwater quality of Valley Forge National Historical Park, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania AN - 16096316; 4202839 AB - Valley Forge National Historical Park is just southwest of the Commodore Semiconductor Group (CSG) National Priorities List (Superfund) Site, a source of volatile organic compounds (VOC's) in ground water. The 7.5-square-mile study area includes the part of the park in Lower Providence and West Norriton Townships in Montgomery County, Pa., and surrounding vicinity. The park is underlain by sedimentary rocks of the Upper Triassic age Stockton Formation. A potentiometricsurface map constructed from water levels measured in 59 wells shows a cone of depression, approximately 0.5 mile in diameter, centered near the CSG Site. The cone of depression is caused by the pumping of six public supply wells. A groundwater divide between the cone of depression and Valley Forge National Historical Park provides a hydraulic barrier to the flow of ground water and contaminants from the CSG Site to the park. If pumping in the cone of depression was to cease, water levels would recover, and the groundwater divide would shift to the north. A hydraulic gradient between the CSG Site and the Schuylkill River would be established, causing contaminated groundwater to flow to the park. Water samples were collected from 12 wells within the park boundary and 9 wells between the park boundary and the groundwater divide to the north of the park. All water samples were analyzed for physical properties (field determinations), nutrients, common ions, metals and other trace constituents, and VOC's. Water samples from the 12 wells inside the park boundary also were analyzed for pesticides. Concentrations of inorganic constituents in the water samples did not exceed U.S. Environmental Protection Agency maximum contaminant levels. Very low concentrations of organic compounds were detected in some of the water samples. VOC's were detected in water from 76 percent of the wells sampled; the maximum concentration detected was 5.8 micrograms per liter of chloroform. The most commonly detected VOC was chloroform. The second most commonly detected compound was methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), which was detected in water from 24 percent of wells sampled. Several pesticides were detected in water samples collected from within the park boundaries: chlordane, DDD, dieldrin, endrin, heptachlor, epoxide, and simazine. Concentrations of the detected pesticides were 0.1 micrograms per liter or less and did not exceed U.S. Environmental Protection Agency maximum contaminant levels.

Low-flow characteristics are summarized for 22 continuous-record gaging stations in North Carolina (19 sites) and Virginia (3 sites) and 60 partial-record gaging stations in the North Carolina Roanoke River Basin. Records of discharge collected through the 1994 water year are used. Flow characteristics included in the summary are (1) average annual unit flow, (2) 7Q10 low-flow discharge, the minimum average discharge for a 7-consecutive-day period occurring, on average, once in 10 years; (3) 30Q2 low-flow discharge; (4) W7Q10 low-flow discharge, similar to 7Q10 discharge except that flow during November through March only is considered; and (5) 7Q2 low-flow discharge. The potential for sustaining base flows is moderate to high in the western part of the basin as well as in the eastern and western fringes of the Piedmont and Coastal Plain physiographic provinces, respectively. Areas of low potential for sustaining base flow exist in the central part of the basin (between eastern Caswell County and western Warren County), where soils have low infiltration rates, and in lower regions of the Coastal Plain, where small streams tend to have zero flow during prolonged drought. Drainage area and low-flow discharge profiles are presented for 10 streams in the Roanoke River Basin in North Carolina and reflect a wide range in basin size, characteristics, and streamflow conditions. The selected streams are Town Fork Creek, Hogans Creek, Mayo River, Buffalo Creek, Smith River, Country Line Creek, Dan River, Marlowe Creek, Hyco River, and Roanoke River. The drainage-area profiles show the increases in drainage areas as streams travel their course in the basin. At the mouths of streams profiled, the drainage areas range from 22 miles to about 9,700 miles. Low-flow discharges for each stream include 7Q10, 30Q2, W7Q10, and 7Q2 discharges in a continuous profile with contributions from major tributaries included.

Dewatering operations at one of the test facilities, the J4 test cell, has affected the local ground-water hydrology. The J4 test cell is approximately 100 feet in diameter, extends approximately 250 feet below land surface, and penetrates several aquifers. Ground water is pumped continuously from around the test cell to keep the cell structurally intact. Because of the test cell's depth, dewatering has depressed water levels in the aquifers surrounding the site. The depressions that have developed exhibit anisotropy that is controlled by zones of high permeability in the aquifers. Additionally, contaminants - predominately volatile organic compounds - are present in the ground-water discharge from the test cell and in ground water at several other Installation Restoration Program (IRP) sites within the AEDC facility. The dewatering activities at J4 are drawing these contaminants from the nearby sites. The effects of dewatering at the J4 test cell were investigated by studying the lithologic and hydraulic characteristics of the aquifers, investigating the anisotropy and zones of secondary permeability using geophysical techniques, mapping the potentiometric surfaces of the underlying aquifers, and developing a conceptual model of the ground-water-flow system local to the test cell. Contour maps of the potentiometric surfaces in the shallow, Manchester, and Fort Payne aquifers (collectively, part of the Highland Rim aquifer system) show anisotropic water-level depressions centered on the J4 test cell. This anisotropy is the result of features of high permeability such as chert-gravel zones in the regolith and fractures, joints, and bedding planes in the bedrock. Of the 35 sampled wells in the J4 area, 10 produced water samples containing chlorinated organic compounds such as 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCA), 1,1-dichloroethylene (1,1-DCE), and trichloroethylene (TCE) in concentrations which exceeded the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCL's) for public water-supply systems. The highest concentrations were detected in samples from well AEDC-274 with 45 micrograms per liter (mg/L) 1,2-DCA, 320 mg/L 1,1-DCE, and 1,200 mg/L TCE. These compounds are synthetic and do not occur naturally in the environment. A sample of the ground-water discharge from the J4 test cell also contained concentrations of these compounds that exceed MCL's. Chlorinated organic compounds, including 1,2-DCA; 1,1-DCE; and TCE also have been detected at IRP sites 1, 7, 8, and 10. The six dewatering wells surrounding the J4 test cell penetrate the Chattanooga Shale and are open to the Highland Rim aquifer system, thereby introducing water from the overlying Highland Rim aquifers into the underlying upper Central Basin aquifer system before it drains to the sump at the bottom of the J4 test cell. However, the possibility that some water could move laterally into the upper Central Basin aquifer system and cross-contaminate the aquifers is highly unlikely. Drilling records indicate that no zones of significant permeability exist in the upper Central Basin aquifer system within the study area. Therefore, the pathway of least resistance for this water to leave the ground-water system is through the dewatering network at the J4 test cell rather than through the upper Central Basin aquifer system.

Below-normal rainfall and increased pumping of groundwater have resulted in declines both in groundwater levels and in the water levels of many of the ridge lakes. A digital flow model was developed for a 3,526 square-mile area to help understand the current (1990) groundwater flow system and its response to future groundwater withdrawals. The groundwater flow system in the Lake Wales Ridge and adjacent area of central Florida consists of a sequence of sedimentary aquifers and confining units. The uppermost water-bearing unit of the study area is the surficial aquifer. This aquifer is generally unconfined and is composed primarily of clastic deposits. The surficial aquifer is underlain by the confined intermediate aquifer and confining units which consists of up to three water-bearing units composed of interbedded clastics and carbonate rocks. The lowermost unit of the groundwater flow system, the confined Upper Floridan aquifer, consists of a thick, hydraulically connected sequence of carbonate rocks. The Upper Floridan aquifer is about 1,200 to 1,400 feet thick and is the primary source for groundwater withdrawals in the study area. The generalized groundwater flow system of the Lake Wales Ridge is that water moves downward from the surficial aquifer to the intermediate aquifer and the Upper Floridan aquifer in the central area, primarily under the ridges, with minor amounts of water flow under the flatlands. The water flows laterally away from the central area, downgradient to discharge areas to the west, east, and south, and locally along valleys of major streams. Upward leakage occurs along valleys of major streams. The model was initially calibrated to the steady-state conditions representing September 1989. The resulting calibrated hydrologic parameters were then tested by simulating transient conditions for the period October 1989 through 1990. A final test of model calibration was conducted by successfully simulating transient conditions for the period October 1988 through September 1989. The calibrated flow model was used to simulate the short-term (one year) effects of 1990 water year pumpage (349 Mgal/d) on the September 1989 groundwater flow system in response to five different pumping schemes: (2) no pumpage, (2) no public supply pumpage, (3) no industrial pumpage, (4) no agricultural pumpage, and (5) no regional pumping outside the Water Use Caution Area. Simulations were used to investigate long-term aquifer changes in response to two development alternatives: (1) continuation of 1990 water year hydrologic conditions and pumping rates (349 Mgal/d), and (2) increased pumpage (506 Mgal/d). Simulation of continued 1990 water year hydrologic conditions and pumping for 20 years indicated that head decline of more than 10 feet might be expected in each aquifer in the northern part of the Water Use Caution Area. Simulation of increased pumpage (an additional 45 percent) for 20 years indicated head declines of more than 20 feet in each aquifer in the northern part of the Water Use Caution Area. Because lakes are hydraulically connected to the surficial aquifer, lake levels within the Water Use Caution Area could decline substantially as a result of present and future pumping and a continuation of 1990 hydrologic conditions. These relatively large head declines were accompanied by decreased simulated lateral boundary outflow of about 40 percent and decreased simulated streamflow of about 32 percent. Equilibrium conditions at the end of the two 20-year simulations had not been attained. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services, Box 25286, Denver Federal Center, Denver, CO 80225 (USA). 1997.

Holloman Air Force Base is located in the west-central part of Otero County, New Mexico. Groundwater data analyses include assembly and inspection of U.S. Geological Survey and Holloman Air Force Base data, including groundwater level data for public supply and observation wells and withdrawal and water quality data for publicsupply wells in the area. Well Douglas 4 shows a statistically significant decreasing trend in water levels for 1972-86 and a statistically significant increasing trend in water levels for 1986-90. Water levels in wells San Andres 5 and San Andres 6 show statistically significant decreasing trends for 1972-93 and 1981-89, respectively. A mixture of statistically significant increasing trends, statistically significant decreasing trends, and lack of statistically significant trends over periods ranging from the early 1970's to the early 1990's are indicated for the Boles wells and wells near the Boles wells. Well Boles 5 shows a statistically significant increasing trend in water levels for 1981-90. Well Boles 5 and well 17S.09E.25.343 show no statistically significant trends in water levels for 1990-93 and 1988-93, respectively. For 1986-93, well Frenchy 1 shows a statistically significant decreasing trend in water levels. Groundwater withdrawal from the San Andres and Douglas wells regularly exceeded estimated groundwater recharge from San Andres Canyon for 1963-87. For 1951-57 and 1960-86, groundwater withdrawal from the Boles wells regularly exceeded total estimated groundwater recharge from Mule, Arrow, and Lead Canyons. Groundwater withdrawal from the San Andres and Douglas wells and from the Boles wells nearly equaled estimated groundwater recharge for 1989-93 and 1986-93, respectively. For 1987-93, groundwater withdrawal from the Escondido well regularly exceeded estimated groundwater recharge from Escondido Canyon, and groundwater withdrawal from the Frenchy wells regularly exceeded total estimated groundwater recharge from Dog and Deadman Canyons. Waterquality samples were collected from selected Douglas, San Andres, and Boles publicsupply wells from December 1994 to February 1995. Concentrations of dissolved nitrate show the most consistent increases between current and historical data. Current concentrations of dissolved nitrate are greater than historical concentrations in 7 of 10 wells.

The purpose of the tests was to determine if the regolith beds had weathered sufficiently to permit the substantial flow of water across them. About 50 curies of tritium dissolved in water were used as the tracer in one site, and about 100 curies at the other. Results demonstrated that ground water is able to flow through joints in the weathered bedding and that the direction of the water-table gradient is the primary factor governint flow direction. Nevertheless, the substantial lateral spread of the plume as it developed showed that bedding-plane openings can still exert a significant secondary influence on flow direction in weathered rock. About 3,500 water samples from the injection and observation wells were analyzed for tritium during the test period. Concentrations detected spanned 11 orders of magnitude. Measurable concentrations were still present in the two injection wells and most observation wells 5 years after the tracer was introduced. Matrix diffusion may have played a significant role in these tests. The process would account for the sustained concentrations of tritium at many of the observation wells, the long-term residual concentrations at the injection and observation wells, and the apparent slow movement of the centers of mass across the two well fields. The process also would have implications regarding aquifer remediation. Other tracer tests have been conducted in the regolith of the Conasauga Group. Results differ from the results described in this report. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services, Box 25286, Denver Federal Center, Denver, CO 80225 (USA). 1997.

Records of monthly streamflow at 14 streamflow-gaging stations were used to synthesize monthly natural flows at tributaries and the 13 synthesis sites. A streamflow-record extension program was used to extend flow records at the 14 gaged sites to a common base period, 1929-89. To synthesize monthly natural flows at 10 sites on the Musselshell River mainstem, synthesized monthly natural flows at all significant tributary streams were required. Results from a previous study were used to synthesize tributary natural flows. Monthly natural flows at each mainstem site downstream from the first site were synthesized by successively adding monthly natural flows from intervening tributaries to the next upstream mainstem site. Special methods using extended-record flows from gaged tributaries were used to synthesize monthly natural flows at three tributary sites. Synthesized mean annual natural flows were found to be greater than mean annual extended-record flows at three selected comparison sites on the Musselshell River. The differences between mean natural and extended-record flows (depletions) at Harlowton and Musselshell were considered to be reasonable given the amount of irrigated acreage upstream from the two sites. The differences at Mosby, the site farthest downstream, was less than at Musselshell, the next upstream site, indicating that the methods of synthesis had error. The synthesis error generally was attributed to the larger natural variability of tributary flows in the lower portion of the Musselshell River Basin.

The study area is a 1,400-square-mile area that includes Sarasota County and parts of Manatee, De Soto, Charlotte, and Lee Counties. Lithologic, geophysical, hydraulic property, and water-level data were used to correlate the hydrogeology and map the extent of the aquifer systems. Water chemistry was evaluated in southwest Sarasota County to determine salinity of the surficial and intermediate aquifer systems. The surficial aquifer is an unconfined aquifer system that overlies the intermediate aquifer system and ranges from a few feet to over 60 feet in thickness in the study area. Hydraulic properties of the surficial aquifer system determined from aquifer and laboratory tests, and model simulations vary considerably across the study area. The intermediate aquifer system, a confined aquifer system that lies between the surficial and the Upper Floridan aquifers, is composed of alternating confining units and permeable zones. The intermediate aquifer system has three major permeable zones that exhibit a wide range of hydraulic properties. Horizontal flow in the intermediate aquifer system is northeast to southwest. Most of the study area is in a discharge area of the intermediate aquifer system. Water ranges naturally from fresh in the surficial aquifer system and upper permeable zones of the intermediate aquifer system to moderately saline in the lower permeable zone. Water-quality data collected in coastal southwest Sarasota County indicate that groundwater withdrawals from major pumping centers have resulted in lateral seawater intrusion and upconing into the surficial and intermediate aquifer systems.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-10-08 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Hydraulic characteristics near streamside structures along the Kenai River, Alaska AN - 16096178; 4202936 AB - Hydraulic characteristics, water velocity, depth, and flow direction were measured near eight sites along the Kenai River in southcentral Alaska. Each of the eight sites contained a different type of structure: a road-type boat launch, a canal-type boat launch, a floating dock, a rock retaining wall, a pile-supported dock, a jetty, a concrete retaining wall, and a bank stabilization project near the city of Soldotna. Measurements of hydraulic characteristics were made to determine to what extent the structures affected natural or ambient stream hydraulic characteristics. The results will be used by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game to evaluate assumptions used in their Habitat Evaluation Procedure assessment of juvenile chinook salmon habitat along the river and to improve their understanding of stream hydraulics for use in permitting potential projects. The study included structures along the Kenai River from about 12 to 42 miles upstream from the mouth. Hydraulic characteristics were measured during medium-, high-, and low-flow conditions, as measured at the Kenai River at Soldotna: (1) discharge ranged from 6,310 to 6,480 cubic feet per second during medium flow conditions that were near mean annual flow on June 9-10, 1994; (2) discharge ranged from 14,000 to 14,400 cubic feet per second during high flow conditions that were near peak annual flow conditions on August 2-3, 1994; and (3) discharge ranged from 3,470 to 3,660 cubic feet per second during open-water low-flow conditions on May 8-9, 1995. Measurements made at the structures were compared with measurements made at nearby unaffected natural sites. The floating dock, pile-supported dock, road-type boat launch, and concrete retaining wall did not significantly alter the stream channel area. These structures contributed only hydraulic-roughness type changes. The structures occupied a much smaller area than that of the wetted perimeter of the channel and thus typically had little effect on velocity, depth, or flow direction. During this investigation, many of these subtle effects could not be separated from ambient hydraulic conditions. The jetty significantly altered stream channel area and therefore affected stream hydraulics more than the other structures that were investigated. Data indicated that velocity increased from 1.9 to 5.8 feet per second near the point of the jetty during measurements in May, June, and August. Rock wall and jetty structures also divert flow away from near-shore areas in proportion to their projection lengths into the river. For the jetty, the effect on surface flow was observed downstream for a distance of about 10 times the length of the jetty's projection into the river and upstream for about 4 to 5 times the length of the projection. For the rock wall, the diversion of flow was evident for 10 to 15 feet downstream. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services, Box 25286, Denver Federal Center, Denver, CO 80225 (USA). 1997.

Results of previous investigations at Picatinny Arsenal, Morris County, New Jersey, indicate that significant contamination of ground water, surface water, and soil is present at the arsenal. Forty-five streambed-material samples were collected for analysis to determine whether contaminants have migrated to the brook from the surrounding area. Samples were analyzed for trace elements, base/neutral- and acid-etractable compounds, insecticides, and other constituents. Results of an electromagnetic-conductivity and natural-gamma-ray survey were used to describe the distribution of particle sizes in streambed and substreambed sediments. Historical results of analyses of streambed-material and surface-water samples also are presented. Samples of streambed material from three areas in Green Pond Brook and its tributaries contained organic and (or) inorganic constituents in concentrations greater than those typically found at the arsenal. These areas are Green Pond Brook, from the area near the outflow of Picatinny Lake downstream to Farley Avenue; Bear Swamp Brook, from the area near building 241 downstream to the confluence with Green Pond Brook; and Green Pond Brook, from the open burning area downstream to the dam near building 1178. Contaminants identified include trace elements, polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, polychlorinated biphenyls, and organochlorine insecticides. Surface water in Green Pond Brook contained several volatile organic compounds, including trichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, and 1,2-dichloroethylene, at maximum concentrations of 3.8, 4.6, and 11 micrograms per liter, respectively. Volatilization is expected to remove volatile organic compounds in the steep, fastflowing reaches of the brook. No organic or inorganic constituents were detected in surface-water samples in concentrations greater than the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency primary drinking-water regulations. Only two constituents, iron and manganese, were detected in concentrations greater than the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency secondary drinking-water regulations.

Ground water that had previously discharged at the Sound is now being deflected southwest, toward withdrawals located near the city of Savannah, Georgia, and the island of Hilton Head. The reversal of this hydraulic gradient and the decline of water levels have caused saltwater in the Upper Floridan aquifer north of Port Royal Sound to begin moving southwest, toward water-supply wells for the town of Hilton Head and toward industries pumping ground water near Savannah. Analytical results from groundwater samples collected from wells in the Upper Floridan aquifer beneath and adjacent to Port Royal Sound show two plumes in the aquifer with chloride concentrations above the drinking-water standard. One plume of high chloride concentration extends slightly south of the theoretical predevelopment location of the steady-state freshwater-saltwater interface as indicated by numerical modeling. The other plume is present beneath the town of Port Royal, where the upper confining unit above the Upper Floridan aquifer is thin or absent. In these areas, the decline in water levels caused by groundwater withdrawals may have made it possible for water from tidal creeks to enter the Upper Floridan aquifer. Many wells completed in the upper permeable zone of the Upper Floridan aquifer show a distinct specific-conductance profile. One non-producing, monitoring well on Hilton Head Island (BFT-1810) was selected to depict a worst-case scenario to examine the short- and long-term water-chemistry and chloride fluctuations in the aquifer. Specific conductance was monitored at depths of 170, 190, and 200 feet below the top of the well casing. The specific conductance measured in 1987 ranged from approximately 450 microsiemens per centimeter near the top of the Upper Floridan aquifer to 1,500 microsiemens per centimeter near the lower, less permeable zone. Short-term fluctuations in conductance were measured at each probe and were found to be related to water-level fluctuations in the well caused by tidal cycles. The conductance varied regularly up to 100 microsiemens per centimeter, with an increasing time lag between high and low tides and low and high specific conductance for progressively shallower depths. Well BFT-1810 was monitored for specific conductance and water levels from October 1987 through September 1993. Specific conductance at the 170-foot probe showed little long-term change, while the 190- and the 200-foot probes showed long-term increases to approximately 4,000 and 10,000 microsiemens per centimeter, respectively. This well is located closest to one of the two plumes of saltwater delineated in the Upper Floridan aquifer, and the long-term chloride increases are a result of the movement of saltwater in the Upper Floridan aquifer toward Hilton Head Island under the influence of regional groundwater withdrawals.

The study that determined this minimum flow did not account for the effects of ice formation on habitat. An investigation was made during periods of ice formation. Hydraulic properties and field water-quality data were measured in winter only from March 1993 to April 1995 at six transects in the lower Bradley River. Discharge in the lower Bradley River ranged from 42.6 to 73.0 cubic feet per second (average 57 cubic feet per second) with ice conditions ranging from near ice free to 100 percent ice cover. Stream water velocity and depth were adequate for habitat protection for all ice conditions and discharges. No relation was found between percent ice cover and mean velocity and depth for any given discharge and no trends were found with changes in discharge for a given ice condition. Velocity distribution within each transect varied significantly from one sampling period to the next. Mean depth and velocity at flows of 40 cubic feet per second or less could not be predicted. No consistent relation was found between the amount of wetted perimeter and percent ice cover. Intragravel-water temperature was slightly warmer than surface-water temperature. Surface and intragravel-water dissolved-oxygen levels were adequate for all flows and ice conditions. No apparent relation was found between dissolved-oxygen levels and streamflow or ice conditions. Excellent oxygen exchange was indicated throughout the study reach. Stranding potential of salmon fry was found to be low throughout the study reach. The limiting factors for determining the minimal acceptable flow limit appear to be stream-water velocity and depth, although specific limits could not be estimated because of the high flows that occurred during this study.

Aquifers used for residential supply are the shallow and deep aquifers in the glacial drift, composed of unconsolidated sand and gravels; the Alexandrian-Maquoketa aquifer, composed of dolomite and shale of the Alexandrian Series and the Maquoketa Group; the Galena-Platteville aquifer, composed of dolomite of the Platteville and Galena Groups; and the Ancell aquifer, composed of sandstones of the Glenwood Formation and the St. Peter Sanstone. Water-level altitudes in the shallow drift aquifers generally follow surface topography. Analysis of water-level data does not clearly indicate overutilization of these aquifers. Water-level altitudes in the deep drift aquifers decrease from west to east. Comparison of historical depth to water measurements with current (1995) measurements indicates large decreases in water levels in some areas. The deep drift aquifers may be overutilized at these locations. Water-level altitudes in the Alexandrian-Maquoketa aquifer generally decrease from west to east. The potentiometric surface of the aquifer follows the bedrock-surface topography in some locations. Localized low water-level altitudes and large decreases in water levels indicate the Alexandrian-Maquoketa aquifer is overutilized in several areas. Water-level altitudes in the wells finished in the Galena-Platteville aquifer vary by more than 300 feet. Large decreases in water levels in wells finished in the Galena-Platteville aquifer indicate the Galena-Platteville and Alexandrian-Maquoketa aquifers are overutilized in the northern part of the township. Water-level altitudes in the wells finished in the Ancell aquifer are also highly variable. There is no indication that the Ancell aquifer is overutilized.

Nutrient management, an agricultural Best-Management Practice, was promoted in the 5.8-square-mile watershed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Clean Water Program. Nonpoint-source-agricultural contamination was evident in surface water and ground water in the watershed; the greatest contamination was in areas underlain by carbonate rock and with intensive row-crop and animal production. Initial implementation of nutrient management covered about 30 percent of applicable land and was concentrated in the Nutrient-Management Subbasin. By 1989, nutrient management covered about 45 percent of the entire Small Watershed, about 85 percent of the Nutrient-Management Subbasin, and less than 10 percent of the Nonnutrient-Management Subbasin. The number of farms implementing nutrient management increased from 14 in 1986 to 25 by 1989. Nutrient applications to cropland in the Nutrient-Management Subbasin decreased by an average of 35 percent after implementation. Comparison of base-flow surface-water quality from before and after implementation suggests that nutrient management was effective in slowing or reversing increases in concentrations of dissolved nitrate plus nitrite in the Nutrient-Management Subbasin. Although not statistically significant, the Mann-Whitney step-trend coefficient for the Nutrient-Management Subbasin was 0.8 milligram per liter, whereas trend coefficients for the Nonnutrient-Management Subbasin and the Small Watershed were 0.4 and 1.4 milligrams per liter, respectively, for the period of study. Analysis of covariance comparison of concurrent concentrations from the two subbasins showed a significant decrease in concentrations from the Nutrient-Management Subbasin compared to the Nonnutrient-Management Subbasin. The small, positive effect of nutrient management on base-flow water quality should be interpreted with caution. Lack of statistical significance for most tests, short-term variation in climate and agricultural activities, unknown ground-water flow rates, and insufficient agricultural-activity data for farms outside of the Nutrient-Management Subbasin were potential problems. A regression model relating nutrient applications to concentrations of dissolved nitrate plus nitrite showed no significant explanatory relation.

This type of information is critical in the design of bridges, culverts and water-control structures, establishment of flood-insurance rates and flood-plain regulation, and for other uses by urban planners and engineers. Concurrent records of rainfall and runoff data collected in small urban basins were used to calibrate rainfall-runoff models. Historic rainfall records were used with the calibrated models to synthesize a long-term record of annual peak discharges. The synthesized record of annual peak discharges were used in a statistical analysis to determine flood-frequency distributions. These frequency distributions were used with distributions from distributions from previous investigations to develop a database for 32 small urban basins in the Blue Ridge-Piedmont, Sand Hills, and Coastal Plain hydrologic areas. The study basins ranged in size from 0.04 to 41.0 square miles. Data describing the size and shape of the basin, level of urban development, and climate and rural flood characteristics also were included in the database. Estimation equations were developed by relating flood-frequency characteristics to basin characteristics in a generalized least-squares regression analysis. The most significant basin characteristics are drainage area, impervious area, and rural flood discharge. The model error and prediction errors for the estimating equations were less than those for the national flood-frequency equations previously reported. Resulting equations, which have prediction errors generally less than 40 percent, can be used to estimate flood-peak discharges for 2-, 5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-year recurrence intervals for small urban basins across the State assuming negligible, sustainable, in-channel detention or basin storage.

The study was designed to quantify the hydrogeologic characteristics and understand the ground-water flow system of a highly productive and complex thickly mantled carbonate valley. The Cumberland Valley is characterized by complexly folded and faulted carbonate bedrock in the valley bottom, by shale and graywacke to the north, and by red-sedimentary and diabase rocks in the east-southeast. Near the southern valley hillslope, the carbonate rock is overlain by wedge-shaped deposit of regolith, up to 450 feet thick, that is composed of residual material, alluvium, and colluvium. Locally, saturated regolith is greater than 200 feet thick. Seepage-run data indicate that stream reaches, near valley walls, are losing water from the stream, through the regolith, to the ground-water system. Results of hydrograph-separation analyses indicate that base flow in stream basins dominated by regolith-mantled carbonate rock, carbonate rock, and carbonate rock and shale are 81.6, 93.0, and 67.7 percent of total streamflow, respectively. The relative high percentage for the regolith-mantled carbonate-rock basin indicates that the regolith stores precipitation and slowly, steadily releases this water to the carbonate-rock aquifer and to streams as base flow. Anomalies in water-table gradients and configuration are a result of topography and differences in the character and distribution of overburden material, permeability, rock type, and geologic structure. Most ground-water flow is local, and ground water discharges to nearby springs and streams. Regional flow is northeastward to the Susquehanna River. Average-annual water budgets were calculated for the period of record from two continuous streamflow-gaging stations. Average-annual precipitation range from 39.0 to 40.5 inches, and averages about 40 inches for the model area. Average-annual recharge, which was assumed equal to the average-annual base flow, ranged from 12 inches for the Conodoguinet Creek, and 15 inches for the Yellow Breeches Creek. The thickly-mantled carbonate system was modeled as a three-dimensional water-table aquifer. Recharge to, ground-water flow through, and discharge from the Cumberland Valley were simulated. The model was calibrated for steady-state conditions using average recharge and discharge data. Aquifer horizontal hydraulic conductivity was calculated from specific-capacity data for each geologic unit in the area. Particle-tracking analyses indicate that interbasin and intrabasin flows of groundwater occur within the Yellow Breeches Creek Basin and between the Yellow Breeches and Conodoguinet Creek Basins.

The equations represent flood response for eight distinct physiographic regions of New Mexico. Additionally, a regional equation was developed for basins less than 10 square miles and below 7,500 feet in mean basin elevation. Flood-frequency relations were updated for 201 gaging stations on unregulated streams in New Mexico and the bordering areas of adjacent States. The analysis described in this report used data collected through 1993. A low-discharge threshold was applied to frequency analysis of 140 gaging stations. Inclusion of these low peak flows affects the fitting of the lower tail and the upper tail of the distribution. Peak discharges can be estimated at an ungaged site on a stream that has a gaging station upstream or downstream. These estimates are derived using the drainage-area ratio and the drainage-area exponent from the regional regression equation of the respective region. Flood-frequency estimates for 201 gaged sites were weighted by estimates from the regional regression equation. The observed, predicted, and weighted flood-frequency data were computed for each gaging station. A maximum observed peak discharge as related to drainage area was determined for eight physiographic regions in New Mexico. Peak-discharge data collected at 201 gaging stations were used to develop a maximum peak-discharge relation as an alternative method of estimating the peak discharge of an extreme event.

In the Yellow, Blackwater, Escambia, and Perdido River Basins study area (northwestern Florida), regional regression equations were developed for estimating the 7- and 30-day, 2- and 10-year low-flow characteristic (Q7,2, Q7,10, Q30,2, and Q30,10) by determining values of basin characteristics from digital Geographical Information System (GIS) coverages or hardcopy maps. A GIS, ARC-INFO, was used to quantify basin characteristics that were used in regression equations. Sources of digital data used in this analysis are elevation data, from a digital elevation model, stream length and location data from a digital hydrography coverage, and watershed boundaries digitized from topographic maps. The most accurate regression equations employed a basin characteristic that was based on a simple conceptual model of one-dimensional groundwater flow using Darcy's law. Slightly less accurate equations were obtained using drainage area as the only explanatory variable. The standard error of prediction for the Darcy and drainage area equations of Q7,2 was 65 and 74 percent, respectively; Q7,10, 58 and 62 percent, respectively; Q30,2, 51 and, 54 percent, respectively; and Q30,10, 44 and 51 percent, respectively. In the Santa Fe River Basin study area (northeastern Florida), a flow-routing method was used to estimate low-flow characteristics at ungaged sites from low streamflow analyses based on records at gaged sites. The use of the flow-routing method is suggested for areas where regression analysis proves unsuccessful, where low-flow characteristics have been defined at a significant number of sites, and where information about the basin characteristics has been thoroughly researched. Low-flow frequency characteristics determined at 40 sites and measurements made during five synoptic runs in 1989-91 were used to develop a flow-routing method. Low-flow frequency characteristics and drainage areas were used to define river profiles for major streams within the Santa Fe River Basin. These river profiles serve as indicators of changes in a stream's low-flow characteristics with respect to change in drainage area. Unit low flows were also determined for each site where low-flow characteristics were determined. Areas of zero flow were defined for Q7,2 and Q7,10 conditions based on measurements made during synoptic runs and from low-flow frequency analyses. The flow-routing method uses the drainage areas to interpolate low-flow values between or near gaged sites on the same stream. Low-flow values are transferred from a gaged site, either upstream or downstream, to the ungaged site. A step-by-step process for flow routing must be made when tributary or other inflow enter a stream. The strength of the flow-routing method is that the values at gaged sites reflect the overall basin characteristics in the vicinity of the gaged sites. However, the accuracy of low-flow estimates may be less in areas of decreasing and increasing flow if sufficient data are not available to assess changing hydraulic and hydrologic conditions.

Mapping was aided by vertical false-color infrared and low-level oblique photographs. However, positive identification of plant species and plant physiological stress required field examination. The consumptive use of ground water and surface water by different areal densities of riparian plant communities along the main stem of the Mojave River was estimated using water-use data from a select group of studies in the southwestern United States. In the Alto subarea of the Mojave basin management area, consumptive water use during 1995 by riparian vegetation was estimated to be about 5,000 acre-feet upstream from the Lower Narrows and about 6,000 acre-feet downstream in the transition zone. In the Centro and Baja subareas, consumptive water use was estimated to be about 3,000 acre-feet and 2,000 acre-feet, respectively, during 1995. Consumptive water use by riparian vegetation in the Afton area, downstream from the Baja subarea, was estimated to be about 600 acre-feet during 1995. Consumptive water use by riparian vegetation during 1995 is considered representative of "normal" hydrologic conditions along the Mojave River. Barring major changes in the areal extent and density of riparian vegetation, the 1995 consumptive-use estimates should be fairly representative of riparian vegetation water use during most years. Annual consumptive use, however, could vary from the 1995 estimates as much as plus or minus 50 percent because of extreme hydrologic conditions (periods of high water table following extraordinarily large runoff in the Mojave River or periods of extended drought).

The results are provided in tabular and graphical formats. The 100-year flood-plain maps and flood profiles provide water-resource managers of the Savannah River Site with a technical basis for making flood-plain management decisions that could minimize future flood problems and provide a basis for designing and constructing drainage structures along roadways. A hydrologic analysis was made to estimate the 100-year recurrence-interval flow for Upper Three Runs and its tributaries. The analysis showed that the well-drained, sandy soils in the head waters of Upper Three Runs reduce the high flows in the stream; therefore, the South Carolina upper Coastal Plain regional-rural-regression equation does not apply for Upper Three Runs. Consequently, a relation was established for 100-year recurrence-interval flow and drainage area using streamflow data from U.S. Geological Survey gaging stations on Upper Three Runs. This relation was used to compute 100-year recurrence-interval flows at selected points along the stream. The regional regression equations were applicable for the tributaries to Upper Three Runs, because the soil types in the drainage basins of the tributaries resemble those normally occurring in upper Coastal Plain basins. This was verified by analysis of the flood-frequency data collected from U.S. Geological Survey gaging station 02197342 on Fourmile Branch. Cross sections were surveyed throughout each reach, and other pertinent data such as flow resistance and land-use were collected. The surveyed cross sections and computed 100-year recurrence-interval flows were used in a step-backwater model to compute the 100-year flood profile for Upper Three Runs and its tributaries. The profiles were used to delineate the 100-year flood plain on topographic maps. The Savannah River forms the southwestern border of the Savannah River Site. Data from previously published reports were used to delineate the 100-year flood plain for the Savannah River from the downstream site boundary at the mouth of Lower Three Runs at river mile 125 to the upstream site boundary at river mile 163.

An assessment of the fresh-and brackish-water resources in the Upper Floridan aquifer was needed to estimate the changes that may result from brackish-water development. The complex hydrogeologic framework underlying Dunedin and adjacent areas of northern Pinellas County is conceptualized as a multilayered sequence of permeable zones and confining and semiconfining units. The permeable zones contain vertically spaced, discrete, water-producing zones with differing water quality. Water levels, water-level responses, and water quality are highly variable among the different permeable zones. The Upper Floridan aquifer is best characterized as a local flow system in most of northern Pinellas County. Pumping from the Dunedin well field is probably not influencing water levels in the aquifer outside Dunedin, but has resulted in localized depressions in the potentiometric surface surrounding production-well clusters. The complex geologic layering combined with the effects of production-well distribution probably contribute to the spatial and temporal variability in chloride concentrations in the Dunedin well field. Chloride concentrations in ground water underlying the Dunedin well field vary both vertically and laterally. In general, water-quality rapidly changes below depths of 400 feet below sea level. Additionally, randomly distributed water-producing zones with higher chloride concentrations may occur at shallow, discrete intervals above 400 feet. A relation between chloride concentration and distance from St. Joseph Sound is not apparent; however, a possible relation exists between chloride concentration and production-well density. Chloride-concentration data from production wells show a consistently increasing pattern that has accelerated since the late 1980's. Chloride-concentration data from 15 observation wells show increasing trends for 6 wells, decreasing trends for 3 wells, and no trend for 6 wells. The current and future, fresh-and brackish-water resources were evaluated using a numerical ground-water flow and solute-transport model. Simulation results indicate that the hydraulic conductivity of the uppermost permeable zone (upper zone A) of the Upper Floridan aquifer is four times greater than the two underlying permeable zones (lower zone A and zone B). The simulated hydraulic conductivities of the semiconfining units are four orders of magnitude less than the permeable zones. Simulation results show the importance of semiconfining units as a mechanism for retarding the vertical movement of higher salinity ground water. Simulation results indicate that pumping from the brackish-water zone does not negatively influence the chloride-concentration trends in the overlying fresh-water zone; however, chloride changes in the fresh-water zone will continue to occur due to the continuation of current fresh-water withdrawals. Chloride changes in the brackish-water zone will occur from pumping brackish water. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services, Box 25286, Denver Federal Center, Denver, CO 80225 (USA). 1997.

Such releases have generated concern regarding local groundwater quality and the potential impact on nearby water-supply wells. Consequently, a study is being conducted to characterize the environmental and hydrologic conditions in the area. Existing reports from numerous previous investigations in the area were reviewed and relevant information from these documents was compiled. Both ground-and surface-water elevations were measured approximately monthly at as many as 50 sites during mass measurements. Selected sites were measured more frequently to assess short-term changes in the ground- and surface-water systems. Supplemental data were also collected outside of the study area to aid in interpretation. Ground water was sampled and analyzed to define the extent of the area affected by petroleum hydrocarbons and chlorinated solvents. Data show that water levels in nearby rivers and sloughs have a considerable influence on groundwater flow in the study area. Seasonal and shorter term changes in river stage frequently alter and even reverse the direction of groundwater flow. The local groundwater system typically has an upward flow component, but this component is reversed in the upper part of the aquifer during periods of high water levels in the Chena River. These periodic changes in the magnitude and direction of groundwater flow have a considerable influence on the transport of dissolved hydrocarbons in the subsurface. Both petroleum hydrocarbons and chlorinated solvents were found in ground water at the study area. Typical degradation products of these compounds were also found, indicating that biodegradation by indigenous microorganisms is occurring.

Historical scour data were collected by means of geophysical methods and used to evaluate the scour-computation procedures recommended by the U.S. Federal Highway Administration and 13 other published pier-scour equations. Hydraulic conditions for the peak historical discharges were estimated by use of WSPRO, a water-surface profile computation model. Depth soundings were made periodically at all of the sites and during flooding at some sites. These data indicate that scour may not totally be a function of discharge or depth but is influenced greatly by debris on piers.

The routes use part of a Copper River and Northwest Railway alignment along the Copper River through mountainous terrain having numerous glaciers. An advance of any of several glaciers could block and destroy the roadway, whereas retreating glaciers expose large quantities of unconsolidated, unvegetated, and commonly ice-rich sediments. The purpose of this study was to map historical locations of glacier termini near these routes and to describe hazards associated with glaciers and seasonal snow. Historical and recent locations of glacier termini along the proposed Copper River Highway routes were determined by reviewing reports and maps and by interpreting aerial photographs. The termini of Childs, Grinnell, Tasnuna, and Woodworth Glaciers were 1 mile or less from a proposed route in the most recently available aerial photography (1978-91); the termini of Allen, Heney, and Schwan Glaciers were 1.5 miles or less from a proposed route. In general, since 1911, most glaciers have slowly retreated, but many glaciers have had occasional advances. Deserted Glacier and one of its tributary glaciers have surge-type medial moraines, indicating potential rapid advances. The terminus of Deserted Glacier was about 2.1 miles from a proposed route in 1978, but showed no evidence of surging. Snow and rock avalanches and snowdrifts are common along the proposed routes and will periodically obstruct the roadway. Floods from ice-dammed lakes also pose a threat. For example, Van Cleve Lake, adjacent to Miles Glacier, is as large as 4.4 square miles and empties about every 6 years. Floods from drainages of Van Cleve Lake have caused the Copper River to rise on the order of 20 feet at Million Dollar Bridge.

The Puget-Willamette Lowland study area is composed of two distinct subareas, the Puget Sound Lowland and the Willamette Lowland. This report presents the results of mapping the thickness of the unconsolidated deposits in the Puget Sound Lowland. The thickness of the unconsolidated deposits ranges from a discontinuous veneer in areas of bedrock outcrop to more than 3,600 feet. Available information shows that the unconsolidated deposits are thickest in the Fraser-Whatcom, Everett, Seattle, and Tacoma Basins. The mapped thickness of the unconsolidated deposits in the Tacoma Basin is probably underestimated because of the scarcity of wells penetrating the full thickness of the unconsolidated deposits and the lack of sufficient marine-seismic data.

Several options created for the MODFLOW groundwater model were used in representing this field situation. The primary option is the MODBRANCH interfacing software, which allows leakage to be accounted for between the MODFLOW groundwater model and the BRANCH dynamic model for simulation of flow in an interconnected network of open channels. A modification to an existing software routine, which is referred to as BCF2, allows cells in MODFLOW to rewet when dry--a requirement in representing the seasonal wetlands in Dade County. A companion to BCF2 is the modified evapotranspiration routine EVT2. The EVT2 routine changes the cells where evapotranspiration occurs, depending on which cells are wet. The Streamlink package represents direct connections between the canals and wetlands at locations where canals open directly into overland flow. Within the BRANCH model, the capability to represent the numerous hydraulic structures, gated spillways, gated culverts, and pumps was added. The application of these modifications to model surfacewater /groundwater interactions in southern Dade County demonstrated the usefulness of the coupled MODFLOW/BRANCH model. Ground-water and surface-water flows are both simulated with dynamic models. Flow exchange between models, intermittent wetting and drying, evapotranspiration, and hydraulic structure operations are all represented appropriately. Comparison was made with a simulation using the RIV1 package instead of MODBRANCH to represent the canals. RIV1 represents the canals by user-defined stages, and computes leakage to the aquifer. Greater accuracy in reproducing measured ground-water heads was achieved with MODBRANCH, which also computes dynamic flow conditions in the canals, unlike RIV1. The surface-water integrated flow and transport two-dimensional model (SWIFT2D) was also applied to the southeastern coastal wetlands for comparison with the wetlands flow approximation made in MODFLOW. MODFLOW simulates the wetlands as a highly conductive upper layer of the aquifer, whereas SWIFT2D solves the hydrodynamic equations. Comparison in this limited test demonstrated no specific advantage for either method of representation. However, much additional testing on a wider variety of geometric and hydraulic situations, such as in areas with greater tidal or other dynamic forcing effects, is needed to make definite conclusions. A submodel of the existing southern Dade County model schematization was used to examine water-delivery alternatives proposed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. For this application, the coupled MODFLOW/BRANCH model was used as a design tool. A new canal and several pumps to be tested to maintain lower water levels in a residential area (while water levels in the Everglades are raised) were added to the model schematization. The pumps were assumed to have infinite supply capacity in the model so that their maximum pumping rates during the simulation could be used to determine pump sizes.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-10-08 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Hydrogeology and water quality of the shallow aquifer system at the Explosive Experimental Area, Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren site, Dahlgren, Virginia AN - 16095493; 4202818 AB - In October 1993, the U.S. Geological Survey began a study to characterize the hydrogeology of the shallow aquifer system at the Explosive Experimental Area, Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Site, Dahlgren, Virginia, which is located on the Potomac River in the Coastal Plain Physiographic Province. The study provides a description of the hydrogeologic units, directions of groundwater flow, and background water quality in the study area to a depth of about 100 feet. Lithologic, geophysical, and hydrologic data were collected from 28 wells drilled for this study, from 3 existing wells, and from outcrops. The shallow aquifer system at the Explosive Experimental Area consists of two fining-upward sequences of Pleistocene fluvial-estuarine deposits that overlie Paleocene-Eocene marine deposits of the Nanjemoy-Marlboro confining unit. The surficial hydrogeologic unit is the Columbia aquifer. Horizontal linear flow of water in this aquifer generally responds to the surface topography, discharging to tidal creeks, marshes, and the Potomac River, and rates of flow in this aquifer range from 0.003 to 0.70 foot per day. The Columbia aquifer unconformably overlies the upper confining unit 12-an organic-rich clay that is 0 to 55 feet thick. The upper confining unit conformably overlies the upper confined aquifer, a 0- to 35-feet thick unit that consists of interbedded fine-grained to medium-grained sands and clay. The upper confined aquifer probably receives most of its recharge from the adjacent and underlying Nanjemoy-Marlboro confining unit. Water in the upper confined aquifer generally flows eastward, northward, and northeastward at about 0.03 foot per day toward the Potomac River and Machodoc Creek. The Nanjemoy-Marlboro confining unit consists of glauconitic, fossiliferous silty fine-grained sands of the Nanjemoy Formation. Where the upper confined system is absent, the Nanjemoy-Marlboro confining unit is directly overlain by the Columbia aquifer. In some parts of the Explosive Experimental Area, horizontal hydraulic conductivities of the Nanjemoy-Marlboro confining unit and the Columbia aquifer are similar (from 10-4 to 10-2 foot per day), and these units effectively combine to form a thick (greater than 50 feet) aquifer. The background water quality of the shallow aquifer system is characteristic of ground waters in the Virginia Coastal Plain Physiographic Province. Water in the Columbia aquifer is a mixed ionic type, has a median pH of 5.9, and a median total dissolved solids of 106 milligrams per liter. Water in the upper confined aquifer and Nanjemoy-Marlboro confining unit is a sodium-calcium-bicarbonate type, and generally has higher pH, dissolved solids, and alkalinity than water in the Columbia aquifer. Water in the upper confined aquifer and some parts of the Columbia aquifer is anoxic, and it has high concentrations of dissolved iron, manganese, and sulfide.

The extensive development of groundwater resources in the High Plains for irrigated agriculture since 1940 has had a significant effect on the underlying High Plains aquifer. About 20 percent of the irrigated land in the United States is in the High Plains aquifer, and nearly 30 percent of the ground water used for irrigation in the United States is pumped from the High Plains aquifer (Weeks and others, 1988). The large volume of water withdrawn from the 1940's through 1994 from the aquifer for irrigation purposes has had a substantial effect on water levels. Water-level changes in the High Plains aquifer has had a substantial effect on water levels. Large regional differences in rates of groundwater recharge and withdrawals for development of irrigated agriculture have substantially affected the geographical patterns of water level change in the High Plains.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-10-08 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Evaluating evapotranspiration for six sites in Benton, Spokane, and Yakima Counties, Washington, May 1990 to September 1992 AN - 16095190; 4202884 AB - This report evaluates evapotranspiration for six sites in Benton, Spokane, and Yakima Counties, Washington. Three sites were located on the Arid Lands Ecology Reserve in Benton County: one at a full-canopy grassland in Snively Basin (Snively Basin site), one at a sparse-canopy grassland adjacent to two weighing lysimeters (grass lysimeter site), and one at a sagebrush grassland adjacent to two weighing lysimeters (sage lysimeter site). Two sites were located on the Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge in Spokane County: one at a full-canopy grassland in a meadow (Turnbull meadow site), the other a full-canopy grassland near a marsh (Turnbull marsh site). The last site was located in a sagebrush grassland in the Black Rock Valley in Yakima County (Black Rock Valley site). The periods of study at the six sites varied, ranging from 5 months at the Black Rock Valley site to more than 2 years at the Snively Basin, grass lysimeter, and sage lysimeter sites. The periods of study were May 1990 to September 1992 for the Snively Basin, grass lysimeter, and sage lysimeter sites; May 1991 to September 1992 for the Turnbull meadow site; May 1991 to April 1992 for the Turnbull marsh site; and March to September 1992 for the Black Rock Valley site. Evapotranspiration and energy-budget fluxes were estimated for the Snively Basin site, the Turnbull meadow site, and the Black Rock Valley site using the Bowen-ratio and Penman-Monteith methods. Daily evapotranspiration for the Snively Basin site was also estimated using a deep-percolation model for the Columbia Basin. The Bowen-ratio method and weighing lysimeters were used at the grass and sage lysimeter sites. The Penman-Monteith method was used at the Turnbull marsh site. Daily evapotranspiration at the sites ranged from under 0.2 millimeter during very dry or cold periods to over 4\x11 millimeters after heavy rainfall or during periods of peak transpiration. At all sites, peak evapotranspiration occurred in spring, coinciding with plant growth, and the lowest evapotranspiration occurred in late summer and winter, coinciding with plant dormancy and extremely hot or cold temperatures. Water budgets for the Snively Basin, grass lysimeter, and sage lysimeter sites were based on estimates of precipitation, evapotranspiration, and surface runoff. Surface runoff was estimated at zero for all sites. For the Snively Basin site, 1991 and 1992 water budgets using Penman-Monteith evapotranspiration estimates agreed within 1 percent of the annual budgets computed using deep-percolation model estimates; daily estimates of evapotranspiration by the two methods varied considerably, however. For the Snively Basin site, 100 percent of the precipitation became ET in 1991, and in 1992, about 91 percent of the precipitation became evapotranspiration. Water budgets based on weighing lysimeter data at the grass and sage lysimeter sites agreed within 1 percent of each other for 1991 and within 5 percent of each other for 1992. For 1991, 10 percent of the precipitation became ET at both lysimeter sites. For 1992, 94 to 98 percent of the precipitation became ET at the grass lysimeter site while 98 to 9 percent of the precipitation became ET at the sage lysimeter site. Though there were uncertainties in the methods used, recharge estimates for the Snively Basin and grass and sage lysimeter sites were of the same order of magnitude. The Penman-Monteith method (which incorporated Bowen-ratio measurements), deep-percolation model, and weighing lysimeters indicated that no recharge to subsurface systems (soil profile, unsaturated zone, and ground water) occurred in 1991 and that, in 1992, recharge to subsurface systems was probably less than 10 percent of the annual precipitation at the Snively Basin and grass and sage lysimeter sites.

The study was conducted during 1987-90 by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and Energy. The effects of recent and anticipated groundwater withdrawals on water levels, stream base flows, and water budgets were estimated. Simulation results indicate that recent withdrawals of 4.7 million gallons per day have resulted in water-level declines of up to 35 feet. Under conditions of increases in withdrawals of 121 percent, water levels would decline up to an additional 28 feet. The magnitude of predicted average base-flow depletion, when compared with historic low flows, indicates that projected increases in withdrawals may substantially deplete seasonal low flow of Drakes Brook and South Branch Raritan River. Results of a water-budget analysis indicate that the sources of water to additional supply wells would include leakage from the overlying valley-fill aquifer and induced leakage of surface water into the aquifer system. Results of water-quality analyses indicate that human activities are affecting the quality of the ground water. With the exception of an elevated iron concentration in water from one well, concentrations of inorganic constituents in water from 75 wells did not exceed New Jersey primary or secondary drinking-water regulations. Volatile organic compounds were detected in water from several wells; in two samples, concentrations of specific compounds exceeded drinking-water regulations.

Ground water flow near the McDonald's-Middle Branch area was analyzed by using a particle tracker to demonstrate the effects of three hypothetical withdrawal scenarios on the configurations of source areas of ground water flow to withdrawal wells, streams, and other discharge outlets in the Kirkwood-Cohansey aquifer system. Under natural conditions, most ground water discharge to streams and wetlands. Ground water residence times ranged from slightly greater than zero to about 200 years. Much of the ground water remained in the system for less than 20 years because it discharged to streams. Residence times of ground water were reduced significantly by persistent withdrawals. The configurations of source areas of flow to local stream systems and to the Piney Point aquifer are affected by the location of a withdrawal well. Results of withdrawal simulations indicate that well-location strategies applied in the Kirkwood-Cohansey aquifer system can alleviate the adverse effects of withdrawals on streams and that large-scale regional withdrawals in confined aquifers can adversely effect streams although the effects are dispersed over numerous streams.

This report includes a synopsis of the theory and calculations associated with Gran's technique and presents a simple and inexpensive method for performing alkalinity and acidity determinations. However, potential sources of error introduced by the chemical character of some waters may limit the utility of Gran's technique. Therefore, the cost- and time-efficient method for performing alkalinity and acidity determinations described in this report is useful for exploring the suitability of Gran's technique in studies of water chemistry.

The investigation included field measurements of water levels and numerical models of groundwater flow. This report documents results of that work and includes descriptions of (1) hydrogeologic framework, (2) water levels, (3) model sensitivity to variations in hydrogeologic parameters, (4) simulated aquifer response to increased groundwater withdrawals, (5) recharge areas for significant water-withdrawal facilities, (6) flow paths and discharge points for groundwater solutes originating beneath known contamination sites. Water-level data indicated (1) regional ground-water flow towards the St. Joseph River, (2) depth to water is small in the St. Joseph aquifer system compared to that in the Hilltop and Nappanee aquifer systems, (3) water levels in deep and shallow parts of the aquifer system are not equal where a confining unit is present. Model results indicate increasing withdrawals by 50 percent at significant water-withdrawal facilities would cause drawdowns less than 6 feet in the 1/4-square-mile area surrounding pumping sites. The response of Juday Creek and the St. Joseph River to increased groundwater pumpage is reductions of groundwater contribution to streamflow of 23 percent and 6 percent, respectively. Particle-tracking analyses indicate flow paths for solutes originating beneath known contamination sites may pass near to, or be intercepted by, significant water-withdrawal facilities. Most particles are discharged to the St. Joseph River but some may be discharged to Juday Creek.

The largest withdrawals were for thermoelectric-power generation (82 percent), industrial use (7 percent), and public supply (6 percent). Most withdrawals, 587 million gallons per day, were made from surface-water sources as compared to 44.9 million gallons per day from ground water sources. The largest withdrawals were in the Upper Connecticut-Mascomo River Basin (525 million gallons per day). About 17,700 million gallons per day were used instream for hydroelectric-poser generation, the largest of which were in the Upper Connecticut-Mascoma and Otter River Basins. Other information describing water-use patters is shown in tables, bar graphs, pie charts, maps, and accompanying text. The data are aggregated by river basin (hydrologic cataloging unit), and all amounts are reports in million gallons per day.

Oversined sheet N1 - Last updated - 2015-10-08 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Water and bed-material quality of selected streams and reservoirs in the Research Triangle Area of North Carolina, 1988-94 AN - 16094178; 4202899 AB - The Triangle Area Water Supply Monitoring Project was formed by a consortium of local governments and governmental agencies in cooperation with the U.S. Geological Survey to supplement existing data on conventional pollutants, nutrients, and metals to enable eventual determination of long-term trends; to examine spatial differences among water supplies within the region, especially differences between smaller upland sources, large multipurpose reservoirs, and run-of-river supplies; to provide tributary loading and inlake data for predictive modeling of Falls of the Neuse and B. Everett Jordan Reservoirs; and to establish a database for synthetic organic compounds. Water-quality sampling began in October 1988 at 35 sites located on area run-of-river and reservoir water supplies and their tributaries. Sampling has continued through 1994. Samples were analyzed for major ions, nutrients, trace metals, pesticides, and semivolatile and volatile organic compounds. Monthly concentration data, high-flow concentration data, and data on daily mean streamflow at most stream sites were used to calculate loadings of nitrogen, phosphorus, suspended sediment, and trace metals to reservoirs. Stream and lake sites were assigned to one of five site categories-(1) rivers, (2) large multipurpose reservoirs, (3) small water-supply reservoirs, (4) streams below urban areas and wastewater-treatment plants, and (5) headwater streams-according to general site characteristics. Concentrations of nitrogen species, phosphorus species, and selected trace metals were compared by site category using nonparametric analysis of variance techniques and qualitatively (trace metals). Wastewater-treatment plant effluents and urban runoff had a significant impact on water quality compared to reservoirs and headwater streams. Streams draining these areas had more mineralized water than streams draining undeveloped areas. Moreover, median nitrogen and nitrite plus nitrate concentrations were significantly greater than all other site categories. Phosphorus was significantly greater than for reservoir sites or headwater streams. Few concentrations of trace metals were greater than the minimum reporting limit, and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency drinking-water standards were rarely exceeded. Detections, when they occurred, were most frequent for sites below urban areas and wastewater-treatment plant effluents. A small number of samples for analysis of acetanilide, triazine, carbamate, and chloro-phenoxy acid pesticides indicate that some of these compounds are generally present in area waters in small concentrations. Organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides are ubiquitous in the study area in very small concentrations. Trihalomethanes were detected at sites below urban areas and wastewater-treatment plants. Otherwise, volatile organic compounds and semivolatile compounds were generally not detected. Suspended-sediment, nitrogen, phosphorus, lead, and zinc loads into Falls Lake, Jordan Lake, University Lake, Cane Creek Reservoir, Little River Reservoir, and Lake Michie were calculated. In general, reservoirs act as traps for suspended sediment and constituents associated with suspended sediments.

The sites are located in a grassland area (grass lysimeter site) and a sagbrush-covered area (sage lysimeter site) on the Arid Lands Ecology Reserve in Benton County, Washington. Lysimeter data were collected at the sites from August 1990 to November 1994. Bowen-ratio data were collected for varying periods from May 1993 to November 1994. Additional Bowen-ratio data without interchanging air-temperature and vapor-pressure sensors to remove sensor bias (fixed-sensor system) were collected from October 1993 to June 1994. Eddy-correlation data were collected at the grass lysimeter site from March to April 1994, and at the sage lysimeter site from April to May 1994. The comparisons of evapotranspiration determined by the various methods differed considerably, depending on the periods of record being compared and the sites being analyzed. The study showed that on an annual basis, at least in 1994, Bowen-ratio evapotranspiration closely matched lysimeter evapotranspiration. In 1993, Bowen-ratio and lysimeter evapotranspiration comparisons were variable. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services, Box 25286, Denver Federal Center, Denver, CO 80225 (USA). 1997.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-10-08 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Groundwater recharge to the regolith-fractured crystalline rock aquifer system, Orange County, North Carolina AN - 16094113; 4202877 AB - Quantitative information concerning recharge rates to aquifers and ground water in storage is needed to manage the development of groundwater resources. The amount of ground water available from the regolith-fractured crystalline rock aquifer system in Orange County, North Carolina, is largely unknown. If historical patterns seen throughout the Piedmont continue into the future, the number of groundwater users in the county can be expected to increase. In order to determine the maximum population that can be supplied by ground water, planners and managers of suburban development must know the amount of ground water that can be withdrawn without exceeding recharge and(or) overdrafting water in long-term storage. Results of the study described in this report help provide this information. Estimates of seasonal and long-term recharge rates were estimated for 12 selected drainage basins and subbasins using streamflow data and an analytical technique known as hydrograph separation. Methods for determining the quality of ground water in storage also are described. Orange County covers approximately 401 square miles in the eastern part of the Piedmont Province. The population of the county in 1990 was about 93,850; approximately 41 percent of the population depends on ground water as a source of potable supplies. Ground water is obtained from wells tapping the regolith-fractured crystalline rock aquifer system that underlies most of the county. Ground water also is obtained from Triassic age sedimentary rocks that occur in a small area in southeastern Orange County. Under natural conditions, recharge to the county's ground-water system is derived from the infiltration of precipitation. Ground-water recharge from precipitation cannot be measured directly; however, an estimate of the amount of precipitation that infiltrates into the ground and ultimately reaches the streams of the region can be determined by the technique of hydrograph separation. Data from 17 gaging stations that measure streamflow within or from Orange County were analyzed to produce daily estimates of groundwater recharge in 12 drainage basins and subbasins in the county. The recharge estimates were further analyzed to determine seasonal and long-term recharge rates, as well as recharge duration statistics. Methods for determining the amount of ground water available from storage are described and two examples describing the use of recharge and storage data for planning and groundwater management are presented. One example illustrates the use of estimates of mean annual recharge and the area of impervious cover to arrive at minimum lot sizes for single family dwellings that will be supplied by individual wells, and wastewater treatment will be handled by on-site septic systems. The second example illustrates the use of recharge duration statistics, test data from wells, and knowledge of the quantity of ground water in long-term storage to develop a community water system for a planned cluster development containing multiple homes with on-site wastewater treatment. The wells that supply water to the development are to be located in an area that will be set aside as a recreational area; the houses with their septic systems will be clustered on another part of the tract. In the second example, the ground-water based community system has 100-percent backup against pump or well failure by having two wells.

As much as 120 feet of clay, silt, sand, and gravel form an unconfined aquifer with an average saturated thickness of 28 feet. The 1985-86 water in storage, assuming a specific yield of 0.20, was 4.47 million acre-feet. The aquifer is confined horizontally and vertically by relatively impermeable Permian geologic units. Groundwater flow across the contact is probably insignificant. Regional groundwater flow is generally south to southeast toward the Cimarron River, except where diverted by tributaries. Estimated average annual recharge to the aquifer is 200 cubic feet per second. Estimated average annual discharge from the aquifer by seepage and evapotranspiration is 173 cubic feet per second. Estimated 1985 discharge by withdrawals from wells was 24.43 cubic feet per second. Water type in the terrace deposits ranged from a calcium bicarbonate to mixed bicarbonate type, with median dissolved solids of 538 milligrams per liter. Cimarron River water is a sodium chloride type with more than 16,600 milligrams per liter dissolved solids. A finite-difference groundwater flow model was calibrated to match 1985-86 aquifer heads and discharge to the Cimarron River between Waynoka and Dover. Simulated 1985-86 steady-state conditions gave an average annual recharge to the aquifer of 203.38 cubic feet per second from precipitation and less than 1 cubic foot per second from other sources. Simulated average annual discharges consisted mostly of 174.98 cubic feet per second to the Cimarron River and tributaries by seepage and evapotranspiration, 24.06 cubic feet per second from groundwater withdrawals, and 5.86 cubic foot per second by leakage to underlying units.

Groundwater resources and water-supply alternatives in the Wawona area, one of several potential relocation sites, were evaluated between June 1991 and October 1993. Ground water flowing from Biledo Spring near the headwaters of Rainier Creek, about 5 miles southeast of Wawona, is probably the most reliable source of good quality ground water for Wawona. A dilute calcium bicarbonate ground water flows from the spring at about 250 gallons per minute. No Giardia was detected in a water sample collected from Biledo Spring in July 1992. The concentration of dissolved 222 radon at Biledo Spring was 420 picoCuries per liter, exceeding the primary drinking-water standard of 300 picoCuries per liter proposed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This concentration, however, was considerably lower than the concentrations of dissolved 222 radon measured in ground water at Wawona. The median value for 15 wells sampled at Wawona was 4,500 picoCuries per liter. Water-quality samples from 45 wells indicate that ground water in the South Fork Merced River valley at Wawona is segregated vertically. Shallow wells produce a dilute calcium sodium bicarbonate water that results from chemical dissolution of minerals as water flows through fractured granitic rock from hillside recharge areas toward the valley floor. Tritium concentrations indicate that ground water in the shallow wells originated as precipitation after the 1960's when testing of atmospheric nuclear devices stopped. Ground water from the deep flowing wells in the valley floor is older sodium calcium chloride water. This older water probably originated either as precipitation during a climatically cooler period or as precipitation from altitudes between 1,400 and 3,700 feet higher than precipitation that recharged the local shallow ground-water-flow system. The South Fork Merced River, the primary source of water supply for Wawona, does not meet current demands during late summer and autumn. Data collected between 1958 and 1968 indicate that 25 percent of the time discharge of the South Fork River at Wawona during the dry season (August through October) was less than 2 cubic feet per second the discharge rate at which the National Park Service is restricted from withdrawing water from the river. The river, however, could be relied on for additional water supply if facilities were constructed to divert and store water during periods of high flow for use later in the year.

The program was developed for IBM-compatible personal computers. Basin analysis and the methodologies developed for the Neshaminy Creek Basin can be transferred to other watersheds. The development and structure of the water-use analysis program is documented in this report. The report also serves as a user's guide. The program uses common relational database-management software that allows for water-use data input, editing, updating, and output and can be used to generate a watershed water-use analysis report. The watershed-analysis report lists summations of public-supply well withdrawals; a combination of industrial, commercial, institutional, and groundwater irrigation well withdrawals; spray irrigation systems; a combination of public, industrial, and private surfacewater withdrawals; wastewater-treatment-facility discharges; estimates of aggregate domestic groundwater withdrawals on an areal basin or subbasin basis; imports and exports of wastewater across basin or subbasin divides; imports and exports of public water supplies across basin or subbasin divides; estimates of evaporative loss and consumptive loss from product incorporation; industrial septic-system discharges to groundwater; and groundwater well-permit allocations.

Also, the use of another weighting scheme to improve estimates of flood frequency statistics at ungaged sites is demonstrated. The karstic nature of much of the Suwannee River Water Management District significantly attenuates flood peaks in some streams by providing substantial subsurface storage when river stages are high. At such times, springs discharging into rivers may reverse flow temporarily and become sinks. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services, Box 25286, Denver Federal Center, Denver, CO 80225 (USA). 1997.

The wetlands are ecologically significant because they support coastal-plain plants and animals far from their typical ranges. Surface-water stage, groundwater levels, rainfall, and streamflow were monitored at or near five wetland sites. Sinking Pond, Willow Oak Swamp, and Westall Swamp are compound sinks with depths greater than 2.5 meters, visible internal drains, and complex bottom topography dominated by coalesced sinkholes and connecting channels. Tupelo Swamp and Goose Pond are karst pans with depths less than 1.5 meters, flat bottoms, and without visible internal drains. Stage rose and fell abruptly in the compound sinks. Maximum water depths ranged from 2.6 meters in Westall Swamp to 3.5 meters in Sinking Pond. Water levels in wells adjacent to Sinking Pond and Westall Swamp rose and fell abruptly, corresponding closely to surface-water stage throughout periods of high water. The two karst pans filled and drained more gradually, but remained flooded longer than the compound sinks. The maximum recorded water depths were 1.1 meters in Tupelo Swamp and 0.7 meter in Goose Pond. Water levels in nearby wells remained lower than the stage in the pans throughout the study period. Tree species were identified and the elevations and diameters of individual trees were measured along 10 transects. Two transects crossed Sinking Pond, two crossed Tupelo Swamp, and one crossed Willow Oak Swamp. The remaining five transects crossed intermittent drainageways that carry flow into or out of Sinking Pond. Transects through ponds had fewer trees but more basal area per unit area of land surface than did transects through channels. Water tupelo (Nyssa aquatica Lake) dominated the interior of Tupelo Swamp and had minimal overlap in terms of elevation and flooding duration with other wetland trees that were confined to the pond's periphery. Overcup oak (Quercus lyrata Walt.) dominated the interior of Sinking Pond. Overlap between overcup oak and other wetland trees in terms of elevation and flooding frequency was minimal across the deeper Sinking Pond transect but was substantial across the shallow transect. Willow oak (Quercus phellos Lake) dominated the interior of Willow Oak Swamp and had a relation to other wetland trees similar to that of overcup oak in the shallow Sinking Pond transect. Transects across broad swales had a relatively large degree of vertical zonation among wetland and upland tree species. Along transects through well defined channels, elevation distributions of wetland and some upland tree species were grouped near each other and near the distribution of land-surface elevations.

The potential for scour and the stability of riprap used to protect the streambed from scour during extreme flood events must be known to evaluate the likelihood of bridge failure. A parameter used in estimating the potential for scour and removal of riprap protection is the time-averaged shear stress on the streambed often referred to as boundary stress. Bridge components, such as bridge piers and abutments, obstruct flow and induce strong vortex systems that create streambed or boundary stresses significantly higher than those in unobstructed flow. These locally high stresses can erode the streambed around pier and abutment foundations to the extent that the foundation is undermined, resulting in settlement or collapse of bridge spans. The purpose of this study was to estimate streambed stresses at a bridge pier under full-scale flow conditions and to compare these stresses with those obtained previously in small-scale model studies. Two-dimensional velocity data were collected for three flow conditions around a bridge pier at the Kentucky State Highway 417 bridge over the Green River at Greensburg in Green County, Ky. Velocity vector plots and the horizontal component of streambed stress contour plots were developed from the velocity data. The streambed stress contours were developed using both a near-bed velocity and velocity gradient method. Although the magnitudes of the estimated streambed stresses measured at the full-scale pier were consistent with those measured in small-scale model studies, the stress distributions were significantly different than those measured in small-scale models. The most significant discrepancies between stress contours developed in this study and those developed in the small-scale studies for flow around cylindrical piers on a flat streambed were associated with the shape of the stress contours. The extent of the high stress region of the streambed around the full-scale pier was substantially larger than the diameter of the upstream cylinder, while small-scale models had small regions compared to the diameter of the model cylinders. In addition, considerable asymmetry in the stress contours was observed. The large region of high stress and asymmetry was attributed to several factors including (1) the geometry of the full-scale pier, (2) the non-planar topography of the streambed, (3) the 20 degree skew of the pier to the approaching flow, and (4) the non-uniformity of the approach flow. The extent of effect of the pier on streambed stresses was found to be larger for the full-scale site than for model studies. The results from the model studies indicated that the streambed stresses created by the obstruction of flow by the 3-foot wide pier extended laterally, away from the pier face, approximately 3 times the pier width. The effect of the pier was approximately 8 times the width of the pier for the full-scale pier in this study. This large area of effect may be attributed in part to the 20 degree skew of the approach flow to the pier that was present for the three flow conditions. A significant finding from the velocity measurements was the lack of a steady horseshoe vortex system at the upstream face of the pier. The horseshoe vortex system that normally forms upstream of piers is purported to be the primary cause of local scour. An explanation for the absence of the vortex is that the non-planar topography of the streambed around the base of the upstream end of the pier produced high values of bed roughness, and therefore disrupted formation of the vortex. Model studies that have been conducted with material mounded in front of the pier have shown that even a smooth mound can prevent horseshoe vortex formation.

Low-level analyses were performed for trace elements, volatile organic compounds, organochlorine compounds, and pesticides. Overall, 94 water samples were collected from 40 sites, during predominantly high-flow conditions, representing urban, agricultural, mixed, and forested land uses. Although most observed concentrations were relatively low, some exceedances of water-quality criteria for acute and chronic toxicity and for the protection of human health were observed. Concentrations of chromium, copper, lead, and zinc in unfiltered water were well correlated with concentrations of suspended sediment. The highest trace-element concentrations generally were found at urban sites that receive a large portion of their runoff from industrial areas, particularly at high suspended-sediment concentrations. In contrast, concentrations of trace elements in some urban streams draining primarily residential areas appeared to approach a maximum as sediment concentrations increased. Whether this difference was due to a difference in the nature of the suspended sediments or to different concentrations in the aqueous phases from the two site types was not addressed. Eight organochlorine compounds were detected at 14 sites. Lindane, dieldrin, and DDT or its metabolites were each detected in about 30 percent of the samples, predominantly in samples collected from agricultural and urban areas. Polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) compounds were detected in samples from two urban sites. For samples in which DDT and its metabolites were examined for partitioning, the largest proportion of the mass of DDT and its metabolites was associated with suspended sediment. In contrast, dieldrin and lindane were almost completely (greater than 99 percent) associated with the dissolved phase. Sixty-one of the 94 pesticides analyzed in filtered water were documented to have been used in the basin in 1987; 43 of these were detected at least once during 1992-94. An additional five were detected that were not documented in the 1987 estimates. Although a comparison between the frequency of detected pesticides and 1987 estimates of pesticide usage in the basin showed generally little correlation, some patterns of detections did appear to reflect land use in the basin. Of the 25 most frequently detected pesticides, 3 were found primarily at urban sites, 6 were found primarily at agricultural sites, and 7 were found at all types of sites except forested. The four most commonly detected pesticides in the basin, observed at all except for ested site types, were atrazine, metolachlor, simazine, and diuron. A greater variety of compounds was detected at sites in the northern portion of the basin than in the southern portion of the basin probably because the northern portion has more diverse agricultural practices and a larger urban component. Possible reasons for the lack of agreement between pesticide detections and pesticide usage estimates include (1) uncertainty in the usage estimates due to spatial and temporal variability or due to changes in agricultural practices since the 1987 estimates were compiled, (2) chemical or biological transformations in the compounds after application, (3) variable hydrologic conditions among sites at the time of sampling, or (4) the ability of laboratory analytical procedures to detect low concentrations of some analytes. Results from repeated samplings at two sites during sequential storms in the fall of 1994 indicated that concentrations and loads of several constituents, including suspended sediment, suspended organic carbon, DDT, metolachlor, and atrazine were highest during peak flows of the first or second significant storms of the fall. Samplings during subsequent storms indicated that instantaneous concentrations and loads we JF - USGS Branch of Information Services, Box 25286, Denver Federal Center, Denver, CO 80225 (USA). 1997.

Detailed hydrologic information is needed to plan for the optimal use of ground-water and surface-water resources and for development of new drinking water supplies in the basin. Sources and percentage of water available for recharge on an annual basis from October 1993 to September 1994, to the fine-grained stratified-drift in a narrow valley bordered by upland till and bedrock were: (1) direct infiltration of precipitation on the valley (30 percent); (2) tributary loss from an upland brook as it crosses the valley (7 percent); and (3) ground- and surface-water runoff from the uplands (63 percent). Seventy percent of recharge was available from upland sources. Seasonal variation in recharge caused changes in ground-water levels and flow directions. In early spring, the direction of flow is toward the valley axis, but in late summer, the direction of flow is nearly parallel to the valley axis. Field observations and results of a ground-water flow simulation indicated that water available for recharge was greater than actual recharge during the spring snowmelt and during intense precipitation events. In 1994, estimates of water available for recharge were greater than actual recharge by 10 percent in March and by 60 percent in April; actual recharge to the valley on an annual basis from October 1993 to September 1994 was 20 percent less than original estimates. A map showing thickness of stratified drift in the Connecticut Valley Lowlands indicates a deep north-south trending buried valley. Maximum thickness of the stratified drift is 385 feet. Interpretation of a seismic-reflection survey indicates fine-grained stratified drift may be underlain by coarse-grained deposits ranging in thickness from 0 to 150 feet. Hydraulic properties of the stratified drift were calculated from groundwater level fluctuations induced by river stage changes using a ground-water-flow model for a site adjacent to the Deerfield River. A comparison of measured and simulated heads resulted in a vertical riverbed hydraulic conductivity of 3 feet per day, anisotropic ratio of horizontal to vertical hydraulic conductivity of 40:1, and storage of 0.040 and 0.0002 for the unconfined and confined layers of the stratified drift. Hydraulic diffusivity (transmissivity divided by the unconfined storage) at the site is about 168,000 feet squared per day. Streamflows at times of low flow were determined for 27 sites that drain areas ranging from 0.57 to 15.8 percent stratified drift. Streamflows exceeded between 80 and 99 percent of the time were determined for sites on the unregulated tributaries to the Deerfield River. Streamflows per square mile of drainage area were greatest from sites at the downstream ends of the North River-Colrain and the Deerfield River-Charlemont stratified-drift valleys. Flow-duration curves for three continuous streamflow-gaging stations on the regulated Deerfield River were compared to flow-duration curves for three continuous streamflow-gaging stations on unregulated tributaries to show the effects of dam regulation on streamflow. Flow-duration curves constructed using instantaneous discharges for the three regulated gaging stations have flat sections that correspond to the predominant streamflows when water is being released from storage from the dams.

The water resources are characterized by the highly variable flows of the James River and its tributaries and by aquifers both in glacial deposits of sand and gravel, and in sandstone in the bedrock. Glacial aquifers underlie about half of the county, and bedrock aquifers underlie most of the county. The James River is an intermittent prairie stream that drains nearly 8,900 square miles north of Spink County and has an average annual discharge of about 124 cubic feet per second where it enters the county. The discharge is augmented by the flow of Snake and Turtle Creeks, each of which has an average annual flow of about 25 to 30 cubic feet per second. Streamflow is unreliable as a water supply because precipitation, which averages 18.5 inches annually, is erratic both in volume and in distribution, and because the average annual potential evapotranspiration rate is 43 inches. The flow of tributaries generally ceases by summer, and zero flows are common in the James River in fall and winter. Aquifers in glacial drift deposits store nearly 3.3 million acre-feet of fresh to slightly saline water at depths of from near land surface to more than 500 feet below land surface beneath an area of about 760 square miles. Yields of properly developed wells in the more productive aquifers exceed 1,000 gallons per minute in some areas. Withdrawals from the aquifers, mostly for irrigation, totaled about 15,000 acre-feet of water in 1990. Water levels in observation wells generally have declined less than 15 feet over several decades of increasing pumpage for irrigation, but locally have declined nearly 30 feet. Water levels generally rose during the wet period of 1983-86. In Spink County, bedrock aquifers store more than 40 million acre-feet of slightly to moderately saline water at depths of from 80 to about 1,300 feet below land surface. Yields of properly developed wells range from 2 to 600 gallons per minute. The artesian head of the heavily used Dakota aquifer has declined about 350 feet in the approximately 100 years since the first artesian wells were drilled in the county, but water levels have stabilized locally as a result of decreases in the discharge of water from the wells. Initial flows of from 4 gallons per minute to as much as 30 gallons per minute of very hard water can be obtained in the southwestern part of the county, where drillers report artesian heads of nearly 100 feet above land surface. The quality of water from aquifers in glacial drift varies greatly, even within an aquifer. Concentrations of dissolved solids in samples ranged from 151 to 9,610 milligrams per liter, and hardness ranged from 84 to 3,700 milligrams per liter. Median concentrations of dissolved solids, sulfate, iron, and manganese in some glacial aquifers are near or exceed Secondary Maximum Contaminant Levels (SMCL's) established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Some of the water from aquifers in glacial drift is suitable for irrigation use. Water samples from aquifers in the bedrock contained concentrations of dissolved solids that ranged from 1,410 to 2,670 milligrams per liter (sum of constituents) and hardness that ranged from 10 to 1,400 milligrams per liter; these concentrations generally are largest for aquifers below the Dakota aquifer. Median concentrations of dissolved solids, sulfate, iron, and manganese in Dakota wells either are near or exceed EPA SMCL's. Dissolved solids, sodium, and boron concentrations in water from bedrock aquifers commonly are too large for the water to be suitable for irrigation use.

The selected locations include: at the Akron gaging station, downstream from the Richland-Westfield Creek Basins, downstream from the Brule Creek Basin, downstream from the Upper West Boundary Big Ditch and Rock Creek Basins, downstream from Broken Kettle Basin, and downstream from North Sioux City. The flood flows for the 10-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year recurrence intervals will be used to support a Federal Emergency Management Agency Flood Insurance Study. Four methods were used to estimate the flood flows. The first method involved the use of drainage-area ratios raised to specified exponents to transfer the flood-frequency relation from the Akron gage to the selected downstream locations. The second method was a flood-frequency analysis based on a summation of the Akron gaging-station peak flows and concurrent tributary daily flows from within the various study reaches. The third method was an independence/dependence analysis of the Akron gaging-station flows and the tributary flows from the various study reaches. The fourth method was a flood-frequency analysis assuming complete dependence of the Akron peak flows and the tributary peak flows from the various study reaches. Based on the various analyses that were done, the drainage-area-ratio method best estimated the flood flows for the Akron to North Sioux City reach of the Big Sioux River. The best estimates of 10-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year flood flows at the location downstream from North Sioux City are 35,300, 70,400, 89,100, and 142,000 cubic feet per second, respectively.

The lakes are an important recreational resource for the surrounding communities, but there is concern about the possible effects of stormwater runoff and seepage of nutrient-enriched ground water on the quality of water in the lakes. The lakes receive water from several sources: rainfall on lake surfaces, inflow from other surface-water bodies, stormflow that enters the lakes through storm drains or by direct runoff from land adjacent to the lakes and ground-water seepage. Water leaves the lakes by evaporation, surface outflow, and ground-water outflow. Of the three, only surface outflow can be measured directly. Rainfall, surface inflow and outflow, and lake-stage data were collected from October 1, 1989, to September 30, 1992. Stormflow, evaporation and ground-water inflow and outflow were estimated for the 3 years of the study. Ground-water outflow was calculated by evaluating the rate of lake-stage decline during dry periods. Estimated ground-water outflow was compared to downward leakage rates estimated by ground-water flow models. Lateral ground-water inflow from surficial sediments was calculated as the residual of the flow budget. Flow budgets were calculated for the 3 years of the study. In water year 1992 (a year with about average rainfall), inflow consisted of rainfall, 48 inches; stormflow, 15 inches; surface inflow, 67 inches; and ground water, 40 inches. The calculated outflows were evaporation, 47 inches; surface outflow, 90 inches; and ground water, 33 inches. Water-quality data also were used to calculate nutrient budgets for the lakes. Bimonthly water samples were collected from the lakes and at surface inflow and outflow sites, and were analyzed for physical characteristics, dissolved oxygen, pH, specific conductance, major ions, the nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus, and chlorophyll (collected at lake sites only). Specific conductance ranged from about 190 to 230 microsiemens per centimeter at 25 degrees Celsius in Lakes Maitland, Virginia and Osceola and from about 226 to 260 microsiemens per centimeter at 25 degrees Celsius in Lake Mizell. The median concentrations of total ammonia-plus-organic nitrogen in all the lakes ranged from 0.79 to 0.99 milligrams per liter. Median total phosphorus concentrations ranged from less than 0.02 to 0.20 milligrams per liter. Stormwater samples were collected for 17 storms at one storm-drain site and 16 storms at another storm-drain site on Lake Osceola. Median total nitrogen concentrations at the sites were 2.23 and 3.06 milligrams per liter and median total phosphorus concentrations were 0.34 and 0.40 milligrams per liter. The water quality in the Winter Park lakes generally is fair to good, based on a trophic-state index used by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection for assessing the tropic state of Florida lakes.

Ion ratios suggest that the water was derived from seawater by concentration and by depletion of calcium and sulfate ions. In the overlying Western Interior Plains confining system, concentrations of depositional sea water and dissolution of extensive evaporite deposits have resulted in sodium chloride type water with large concentrations of dissolved solids and sodium. Overlying this confining system in the northwest part of the study area, the Great Plains aquifer system yields water that generally is less mineralized and more variable in water type than the underlying systems. Recharge of meteoric water, concentration of brackish water in which the rocks were deposited, and dissolution of underlying evaporite deposits have contributed to the observed water chemistry. The Great Plains confining system restricts the exchange of water between the underlying Great Plains aquifer system and the overlying unconfined aquifers. In the Ozark subregion, geological units equivalent to the Western Interior Plains aquifer system comprise the Ozark Plateaus aquifer system. Units of this aquifer system are exposed at the land surface, and fresh meteoric water moves rapidly through fractures and solution openings. Water chemistry in this system reflects primarily the dissolution of the predominately carbonate rocks.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-10-08 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Ground-water and surface-water relations along the Mojave River, Southern California AN - 15965561; 4062081 AB - The Mojave River and the associated flood-plain aquifer are important water supplies in the Mojave Desert of Southern California. The river and aquifer, in many areas, are in excellent hydraulic connection, and when flow conditions change in one, the other almost always is affected. To better understand these relations, records of gaging stations were analyzed to determine the frequency and duration of historical streamflow. Annual ground-water recharge from the river during water years 1931-94 was estimated from an accounting of all streamflow accretions and losses. Annual recharge ranged from about 24,000 to 460,000 acre-feet and averaged about 96,000 acre-feet. Channel-geometry regression techniques were used to estimate runoff of ungaged ephemeral streams that are tributary to the river. Water-table and gravity changes were used to estimate specific yield of the aquifer and changes in ground-water storage following storm runoff during the winters of 1992-94. In addition, streamflow hydrographs were analyzed to estimate both ground-water discharge to the river (base flow) and historical streamflow depletion caused by ground-water pumping and evapotranspiration. Ground-water pumpage from the flood-plain aquifer was about 120,000 acre-feet during water year 1994. Annual evapotranspiration along the river probably ranges from about 10,000 to 30,000 acre-feet. Factors controlling the exchange of water are identified in this report on the basis of the historical response of the river-aquifer system to stress (stormflows and pumping). Also identified are reaches of the river that are hydraulically suitable for artificial recharge.

Because the study basins face continued urban development, this method was developed to provide a technique for assessing the effects of alternative urban-development plans on runoff characteristics. A conceptual model of runoff generation and three numerical simulation models, called basin models, were constructed for the study basins. Hydrologic Simulation Program-FORTRAN was the program used to construct the basin models. The basin models were constructed using parameter values based on qualitative rainfall-runoff relations defined in the conceptual model. The features of the conceptual model, incorporated in the basin models, were assessed by calibration and evaluation of the basin models with observed streamflow data collected from March 1988 through March 1990. The simulation results from the basin models generally confirmed the study's conceptual model of runoff generation. Absolute differences between simulated and observed streamflows were less than 6 percent for total runoff volumes, equal to or less than 32 percent for daily mean discharges, less than 32 percent for storm runoff volumes, and less than 33 percent for peak discharges. Although the conceptual model adequately described runoff generation from rainfall, it did not adequately describe the actual flow paths from land segments to streams.

Ground-water withdrawals from these deposits in 1986 were about 9.1 million gallons per day. A steady-state ground-water flow model was developed to quantify the effects of ground-water withdrawals on water levels in the valley-fill aquifers and on ground-water discharge to the Rockaway River. The ground-water-flow model, which represents an aquifer system consisting of an unconfined and a confined aquifer separated by a discontinuous confining unit, was implemented to examine aquifer resonse to current and predicted ground-water withdrawals in areas of proposed well sites and the effect of increased ground-water withdrawals on ground-water discharge to the river. Ground-water flow to wells in the valley-fill aquifers is sustained by increased vertical flow between the two aquifers, the diversion of ground water that had discharged to the Rockaway River, and induced seepage resulting from pumping near the Rockaway River. If the rate of ground-water recharge decreases or if the rate of ground-water withdrawals from the valley-fill aquifers increases, ground-water discharge to the Rockaway River above the Boonton Reservoir will decrease by an equivalent amount. The average annual base flow of the Rockaway River above the Boonton Reservoir will meet the minimum passing flow requirement of 7 million gallons per day under conditions of average annual ground-water recharge, and increased ground-water withdrawals anticipated by the years 2000 and 2040. For anticipated increases in withdrawals to 11.5 million gallons per day by the year 2000, and 14.6 million gallons per day by the year 2040, base flow to the Rockaway River above the Boonton Reservoir may not be sufficient to meet the minimum required reservoir outflow during extended periods of decreased recharge, such as drought, as much as 5 and 11 percent of the time, respectively.

Data on the presence of pesticides in streams, bottom sediments, fish, and ground waters were examined. Results are interpreted with respect to spatial, seasonal, and streamflow effects. Concentrations of water-soluble pesticides reach a peak during the first storm following application and remain elevated for 1 to 2 months. The most herbicide loading to the White River occurs during this time, when about 1 percent of the applied herbicides are transported out of the White River Basin. Bottom sediments and fish were analyzed for lipophilic pesticides. Dieldrin, components of technical chlordane, and DDT-related compounds were the most frequently detected. In areas where pesticide concentrations in sediment were high, concentrations in fish were high, indicating that bottom sediments are probably the primary source of lipophilic pesticides in aquatic biota. Ground-water/surface-water interaction and the presence of pesticides in ground waters were examined. The bedrock karst region had the highest degree of ground-water/surface-water interaction, indicating that the shallow ground water is susceptible to contamination from surface sources. Atrazine was the most frequently detected pesticides in ground waters. All wells where pesticides were detected are in karst or alluvial outwash, indicating that these geomorphic units are highly susceptible to contamination.

Alternate wells were selected to replace wells used in 1983 that were inaccessible at the time of the water-level measurements in 1988 or had been destroyed. New well sites were added in strategic locations to increase coverage where possible. Large cones of depression have formed or expanded in the nine major artesian aquifers that underlie the New Jersey Coastal Plain. Water levels are shown on nine potentiometric-surface maps. Hydrographs for observation wells typically show water-level declines for 1983, through 1989. In the confined Cohansey aquifer, the lowest water level, 20 feet below sea level, was measured in a well located at Cape May City Water Department, Cape May County. Water levels in the Atlantic City 800-foot sand declined as much as 21 feet at Ventnor, Atlantic County, over the 6-year period from the 1983 study to this study for 1988. Water levels in the Piney Point aquifer were as low as 56 feet below sea level at Seaside Park, Ocean County; 45 feet below sea level in southern Cumberland County; and 28 feet below sea level at Margate, Atlantic County. Water levels in the Vincentown aquifer did not change over the 6-year period. The lowest water levels in the Wenonah-Mount Laurel aquifer and the Englishtown aquifer system were 218 feet and 256 feet below sea level, respectively. Large cones of depression in the Potomac-Raritan-Magothy aquifer system are centered in the Camden County area and the Middlesex and Monmouth County area. Water levels declined as much as 46 feet in these areas over the 6-year period.

Hazards to biota from large concentrations of certain trace elements in water and bottom sediment, and caused by high evaporation rates in irrigated arid lands, are reduced by imported, dilute Columbia River water. However, boron concentrations in aquatic plants might affect waterfowl feeding on these plants and arsenic concentrations in juvenile coots were similar to those in mallard ducklings who exhibited abnormalities after being fed an arsenic-supplemented diet. During irrigation season, concentrations of boron, nitrate, and dissolved solids in water were increased in the southern wasteways because of water reuse. During non-irrigation season, constituent concentrations were large when stream flows are sustained by return water from tile drains and ground water. However, concentrations of dissolved constituents typically did not exceed standards or criteria for humans, freshwater life, or beneficial uses of the water. In water, the herbicide 2,4-D was detected more than any other pesticide and in concentrations from 0.01 to 1.0 microgram per liter. In bottom sediment, organochlorine insecticides were detected in samples from 19 of 21 sites. In fish collected from some wasteways, chlordane, DDT, and dieldrin concentrations occasionally exceeded freshwater protection criteria.

Two water-table maps and a water-level-change map were drawn on the basis of these measurements. In addition, historical data from U.S. Geological Survey computer files and published reports were used to determine the approximate configuration of the water table in 1931 and to draw one short-term and two-long term water-level hydrographs. Comparison of the three water-table maps indicates general similarities. The average horizontal hydraulic gradient in the shallow aquifer is about 7.5 feet per mile, and the flow direction is to the east-northeast. The water table declined 2 to 10 feet between June and September 1991, with the greatest decline occurring in a wedge-shaped area south of the Wood River and north of the Platte River. The 1991 water-table configurations appear to indicate that the aquifer either was discharging to the Platte River in this reach or there was little flow between the river and the aquifer. Comparison of the 1931 and 1991 water-table maps indicates that, except for short-term variations, the water-table configuration changed little during this 61-year period. Two long-term water-level hydrographs confirm this conclusion, indicating that the shallow aquifer in this area has been in long-term, dynamic equilibrium.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-10-08 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Simulation of subsurface storage and recovery of treated effluent injected in a saline aquifer, St. Petersburg, Florida AN - 15956985; 4062078 AB - The potential for subsurface storage and recovery of treated effluent into the uppermost producing zone (zone A) of the Upper Floridan aquifer in St. Petersburg, Florida, is being studied by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the city of St. Petersburg and the Southwest Florida Water Management District. A measure of the success of this practice is the recovery efficiency, or the quantity of water relative to the quantity injected, that can be recovered before the water that is withdrawn fails to meet water-quality standards. The feasibility of this practice will depend upon the ability of the injected zone to receive, store, and discharge the injected fluid. A cylindrical model of ground-water flow and solute transport, incorporating available data on aquifer properties and water quality, was developed to determine the relation of recovery efficiency to various aquifer and fluid properties that could prevail in the study area. The reference case for testing was a base model considered representative of the saline aquifer underlying St. Petersburg. Parameter variations in the tests represent possible variations in aquifer conditions in the area. The model also was used to study the effect of various cyclic injection and withdrawal schemes on the recovery efficiency of the well and aquifer system. A base simulation assuming 15 days of injection of effluent at a rate of 1.0 million gallons per day and 15 days of withdrawal at a rate of 1.0 million gallons per day was used as reference to compare changes in various hydraulic and chemical parameters on recovery efficiency. A recovery efficiency of 20 percent was estimated for the base simulation. For practical ranges of hydraulic and fluid properties that could prevail in the study area, the model analysis indicates that (1) the greater the density contrast between injected and resident formation water, the lower the recovery efficiency, (2) recovery efficiency decreases significantly as dispersion increases, (3) high formation permeability favors low recovery efficiencies, and (4) porosity and anisotropy have little effect on recovery efficiencies. In several hypothetical tests, the recovery efficiency fluctuated between about 4 and 76 percent. The sensitivity of recovery efficiency to variations in the rate and duration of injection (0.25, 0.50, 1.0, and 2.0 million gallons per day) and withdrawal cycles (60, 180, and 365 days) was determined. For a given operational scheme, recovery efficiency increased as the injection and withdrawal rate is increased. Model results indicate that recovery efficiencies of between about 23 and 37 percent can be obtained for different subsurface storage and recovery schemes. Five successive injection, storage, and recovery cycles can increase the recovery efficiency to about 46 to 62 percent. There is a larger rate of increase at smaller rates than at larger rates. Over the range of variables studied, recovery efficiency improved with successive cycles, increasing rapidly during initial cycles then more slowly at later cycles. The operation of a single well used for subsurface storage and recovery appears to be technically feasible under moderately favorable conditions; however, the recovery efficiency is highly dependent upon local physical and operational parameters. A combination of hydraulic, chemical, and operational parameters that minimize dispersion and buoyancy flow, maximizes recovery efficiency. Recovery efficiency was optimal where resident formation water density and permeabilities were relatively similar and low.

Published surficial geologic maps and drillers' lithologic logs from about 700 field-located wells were used to prepare 28 geologic sections; these sections were used to delineate 9 hydrogeologic units - 5 aquifers, 3 confining beds, and a basal, undifferentiated unit. Two aquifers in these sediments occur at the land surface. Maps depicting the configuration of the tops of three buried aquifers show the extent and the geometry of those aquifers. Maps showing the thickness of two of the three buried aquifers also were prepared. Potentiometric-surface maps for the major aquifers are based on water levels measured in about 400 wells during April 1987. Hydraulic characteristics of the major aquifers are mapped using more than 1,100 specific-capacity calculations and about 240 hydraulic-conductivity determinations from selected wells. Estimates of the average annual recharge to the ground-water system from precipitation for the entire study area were based on relations determined from modeling selected basins. Discharges from the ground-water system were based on estimates of springflow and diffuse seepage from the bluffs surrounding the uplands, and on the quantity of water withdrawn from high-capacity wells. A total of 242 water samples was collected from 217 wells during two mass samplings and analyzed for the presence of common constituents. Samples also were collected and analyzed for heavy metals, boron, detergents, and volatile organic compounds. These analyses indicated there was no widespread degradation of ground-water quality in southwestern King County.

Four measurement methods were used to quantify aggradation rates: (1) a dendrogeomorphic method that used tree-age data and sediment-deposition depths, (2) a bridge-opening cross-section method that compared historic and recent cross sections of bridge openings, (3) a stage-discharge rating-curve method that compared historic and recent stages for the 5-year flood discharge and the average discharge, and (4) nine sediment pads that were installed on the Iowa River flood plain at three bridge sites in the vicinity of Marshalltown. The sediment pads were installed prior to overbank flooding in 1993. Sediments deposited on the pads as a result of the 1993 flood ranged in depth from 0.004 to 2.95 feet. Measurement periods used to estimate average aggradation rates ranged from 1 to 98 years and varied among methods and sites. The highest aggradation rates calculated for the Iowa River Basin using the dendrogeomorphic and rating-curve measurement methods were for the State Highway 14 crossing at Marshalltown, where these highest rates were 0.045 and 0.124 feet per year, respectively. The highest aggradation rates calculated for the Skunk River Basin were for the U.S. Highway 63 crossing of the South Skunk River near Oskaloosa, where these highest rates were 0.051 and 0.298 feet per year, respectively.

Discharge, water quality, and total phosphorus and total nitrogen loads for the period April 1, 1991, through March 31, 1992, were evaluated and compared with discharge, water quality, and loads at long-term, nontidal gages in the basins. Long-term discharge and water-quality characteristics at selected sites in the Alafia river and Hillsborough River basins were evaluated. A long-term, decreasing trend in annual-mean discharge was observed for discharges at the Alafia River, Sulphur Springs, and Hillsborough River. Low-flow and high-flow characteristics in the Alafia River and Hillsborough River have changed as well. The decreasing trend in the Alafia River discharges is not due to deficient rainfall but probably is due to decreased ground-water inflow to the river because of long-term declines in the potentiometric surface of the Upper Floridan aquifer. Daily-mean discharges at the mouth of the Alafia River were more variable than discharges at the long-term gage upstream. Daily-mean discharge near the mouth of the river was negative at times, indicating a net loss of water from the river. Daily-mean discharge from the Hillsborough River was minimal from April to May 1991, and from late September 1991 to March 1992. During these periods, discharge from Sulphur Springs was a major source of freshwater to the tidally affected reach of the river. Concentrations of total phosphorus and orthophosphorus in the Alafia River above Lithia Springs were the greatest in the 1960's and have generally declined since then. Total nitrogen concentrations have been declining since about 1981. However, increases in nitrate plus nitrite nitrogen concentrations are occurring in Lithia Springs, a second-magnitude spring that flows into the Alafia River. Specific conductance of water discharging from Sulphur Springs to the Hillsborough River has increased from about 124 to more than 2,000 microsiemens per centimeter since 1945. Water quality at the mouth of the Alafia River and Hillsborough River is the result of mixing of freshwater and estuarine water from Hillsborough Bay. Large daily variations in water quality occur at these site because of tidal currents, and vertical stratification of specific conductance is a common feature. Concentrations of phosphorus, nitrate plus nitrite nitrogen, organic carbon, and silica are inversely related to specific conductance at the mouth of the Alafia River. Constituent concentration and discharge data were used to compute loads during the study period. Average daily phosphorus loads were 2.4 tons per day at the mouth of the Alafia River; 0.35 ton per day at the mouth of the Hillsborough River; and 0.06 ton per day at the Tampa Bypass Canal.

The site, underlain by carbonate rock, was cropland used primarily for the production of corn and alfalfa. Average annual application of nutrients to the 14.4 acres of cornfields was 410 pounds of nitrogen and 110 pounds of phosphorus. About three times more nutrients were applied during the 1984 water year than during the 1983 water year. During the investigation, 714,000 cubic feet of runoff transported 244 tons of suspended sediment, 300 pounds of nitrogen, and 170 pounds of phosphorus during the 1984 water year. Runoff from storms on frozen ground produced the highest loads of nitrogen. Regression analyses indicate that runoff rates and quantities were controlled by precipitation intensities of quantities and the amount of crop cover, and that mean concentrations of nitrogen for runoff events increased with increased surface-nitrogen applications made prior to runoff. Ground-water levels responded quickly to recharge, with peaks occurring several hours to a day after precipitation. Median concentrations of dissolved nitrate in ground water ranged from 9.2 to 13 milligrams per liter as nitrogen. A lag time to 1 to 3 months was observed between the time that nitrogen was applied to the land surface and local maximums in nitrate concentrations were detected in ground water unaffected by recharge events. About 3 million cubic feet of ground water and an associated 2,200 pounds of nitrate-nitrogen discharged from the site during the study period. For the study period, 42 percent of the precipitation recharged to ground water, 10 percent became runoff, and 48 percent evapotranspired. Inputs of nitrogen to the study area were estimated to be 93 percent from manure, 5 percent from commercial fertilizer, and 2 percent from precipitation. Nitrogen outputs from the system were estimated to be 38 percent to crop uptake, 39 percent to volatilization, 20 percent to ground water discharge, and 3 percent to surface runoff.

The model's transfer of heat is based on an equation developed from Fourier's equation for heat flux. The model's transfer of water within the soil profile is based on the concept of capillary forces. Field capacity and infiltration rate can vary throughout the freezing and thawing period, depending on soil conditions and rate and timing of snowmelt. The model can be used to determine the effects of seasonally frozen soils on ground-water recharge and surface-water runoff. Data collected for two winters, 1985-86 and 1986-87, on three runoff plots were used to calibrate and verify the model. The winter of 1985-86 was colder than normal, and snow cover was continuous throughout the winter. The winter of 1986-87 was warmer than normal, and snow accumulated for only short periods of several days. Runoff, snowmelt, and frost depths were used as the criteria for determing the degree of agreement between simulated and measured data. The model was calibrated using the 1985-86 data for plot 2. The calibration simulation agreed closely with the measured data. The verification simulations for plots 1 and 3 using the 1985-86 data and for plots 1 and 2 using the 1986-87 data agreed closely with the measured data. The verification simulation for plot 3 using the 1986-87 data did not agree closely. The recalibration simulations for plots 1 and 3 using the 1985-86 data indicated little improvement because the verification simulations for plots 1 and 3 already agreed closely with the measured data.

Chemical and isotopic compositions were measured for six N-source types consisting of rain water, forest leaf litter, synthetic fertilizer, farm animal manure, municipal sewage effluent and sludge, and septic tank effluent and sludge. Animal manure, human waste, and forest leaf litter could be distinguished on the basis of super(13)C ratios. Most N sources could not be distinguished on the basis of super(15)N and super(34)S ratios, due to wide ranges and overlap of compositions among different N-source types.

The most heavily applied agricultural herbicides were detected more frequently and at higher concentrations in surface waters than herbicides which were less commonly used or applied at very low rates. Loadings to surface water for alachlor, acetochlor, cyanazine, and metolachlor roughly corresponded to the total amount of the specific herbicide applied within the watershed. Atrazine was found at similar concentrations and loadings in both watersheds despite the near total prohibition of its use in the Yahara River watershed and is attributable to heavy rains prior to the sampling period.
