To quantify the effects of increased urbanization on storm runoff volumes and peak discharges, rainfall-runoff models of the basin were developed to simulate runoff for 1970-75 and 1990-93 conditions. Hourly rainfall data for 1949-93 were used with the rainfall-runoff models to simulate a long-term record of storm runoff. The hydrologic effects of increased urbanization from 1970-75 to 1990-93 were analyzed by comparing the simulated annual peak discharges and volumes, and storm runoff peaks, frequency of annual peak discharges and runoff volumes, and duration of storm peak discharges for each study period. A Log-Pearson Type-III frequency analysis was calculated using the simulated annual peaks to estimate the 2-, 5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-year recurrence intervals. The estimated 2-year discharge at the outlet of the basin was 646 cubic feet per second for the 1970-75 conditions and 1,328 cubic feet per second for the 1990-93 conditions. The 100-year discharge at the outlet of the basin was about 14,000 cubic feet per second for the 1970-75 and 1990-93 conditions. The station duration analysis used 925 model-simulated storm peaks from each basin to estimate the percent chance a peak discharge is exceeded. At the outlet of the basin, the chances of exceeding 100 cubic feet per second were about 33 percent under 1970-75 conditions and about 59 percent under 1990-93 conditions. The chance of exceeding 2,500 cubic feet per second at the outlet of the basin was less than 1 percent higher under the 1990-93 conditions than under the 1970-75 conditions. The increase in urbanization from the early 1970's to the early 1990's more than doubled the peak discharges with a 2-year return period. However, peak discharges with return periods greater than 50 years were not significantly affected by the change in urbanization.

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.

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.

Equations for estimating pier, contraction, and abutment scour have been developed from numerous laboratory studies using sand-bed flumes, but little verification of these scour equations has been done for actual rivers with various bed conditions. This report describes the results of reconnaissance and detailed scour assessments and a sediment-transport simulation for selected bridge sites in South Dakota. Reconnaissance scour assessments were done during 1991 for 32 bridge sites. The reconnaissance assessments for each bridge site included compilation of general and structural data, field inspection to record and measure pertinent scour variables, and evaluation of scour susceptibility using various scour-index forms. Observed pier scour at the 32 sites ranged from 0 to 7 feet, observed contraction scour ranged from 0 to 4 feet, and observed abutment scour ranged from 0 to 10 feet. Thirteen bridge sites having high potential for scour were selected for detailed assessments, which were accomplished during 1992-95. These detailed assessments included prediction of scour depths for 2-, 100-, and 500-year flows using selected published scour equations; measurement of scour during high flows; comparison of measured and predicted scour; and identification of which scour equations best predict actual scour.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-10-08 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Karst hydrogeology and hydrochemistry of the Cave Springs Basin near Chattanooga, Tennessee AN - 16096801; 4202821 AB - The Cave Springs ground-water basin, located near Chattanooga, Tennessee, was chosen as one of the Valley and Ridge physiographic province type area studies for the Appalachian Valley-Piedmont Regional Aquifer-System Analysis study in 1990. Karstic Paleozoic carbonate rocks, residual clay-rich regolith, and coarse alluvium form the aquifer framework. Recharge from rainfall dispersed over the basin enters the karst aquifer through the thick regolith. The area supplying recharge to the Cave Springs Basin is approximately 7 square miles. Recharge from North Chickamauga Creek may contribute recharge to the Cave Springs Basin along losing reaches. The flow medium consists of mixed dolomite and limestone with cavernous and fracture porosity. Flow type as determined by the coefficient of variation of long-term continuous specific conductance (18 and 15 percent) from two wells completed in cavernous intervals about 150 feet northeast of Cave Springs, indicates an aquifer with conduit flow. Flow type, based on the ratio (6:1) of spring flood-flow discharge to spring base-flow discharge, indicates an aquifer with diffuse flow. Conduit flow probably dominates the aquifer system west of Cave Springs Ridge from the highly transmissive, unconfined, alluvium capped aquifer and along losing reaches of North Chickamauga Creek. Diffuse flow probably predominates in the areas along and east of Cave Springs Ridge covered with the thick, clay-rich regolith that forms a leaky confining layer. Based on average annual long-term precipitation and runoff records, the amount of water available for recharge to Cave Springs is 11.8 cubic feet per second. The mean annual long-term discharge of Cave Springs is 16.4 cubic feet per second which leaves 4.6 cubic feet per second of recharge unaccounted for. As determined by low-flow stream discharge measurements, recharge along losing reaches of North Chickamauga Creek may be an important source of unaccounted-for-recharge to the Cave Springs Basin. Selected ground-water samples in the study area are characterized by calcium bicarbonate type water and calcium magnesium bicarbonate type water. Calcium bicarbonate type water characterizes Lick Branch and Poe Branch. North Chickamauga Creek water is calcium magnesium sulfate type water and reflects interaction with the pyrite-containing siliciclastic rocks of the Cumberland Plateau or acid mine drainage. Seasonal high spring discharge is associated with lower specific conductance and lower temperatures, which lag in response to increasing spring discharge by approximately 2 months. Seasonal decrease in spring discharge is accompanied by an incident increase in specific conductance and temperature increase, which leads by about 4 months.

Precipitation in the two basins was about equal for the study period. During 1940-63, streamflows in the Waccamaw and Lumber Rivers were essentially identical relative to average conditions. The flow regime from the late 1950's to the early 1980's was distinctly wetter than the flow regimes which immediately preceded and followed this period. Following 1963, droughts in the Waccamaw Basin seem to have been less severe than in the Lumber Basin, and the annual 1-, 7-, and 30-day low flows exhibited a slightly increasing trend in the Waccamaw River. Mean daily flow in the Waccamaw River at the 90-percent exceedance level (low flows) during 1985-94, a relatively dry period, was very nearly equal to flows at the same exceedance level for 1970-79, the wettest 10-year period between 1940 and 1994. Prior to the 1980's, flows per unit drainage area in the Waccamaw Basin were generally less than those in the Lumber Basin, but after 1980, the opposite was true. There is an increasing trend in the difference between Waccamaw River and Lumber River high flows, primarily as a result of increases in Waccamaw River high flows. On average, streamflow in the Waccamaw River consisted of 53.3 percent base flow, but base flow accounted for 70.6 percent of the total flow in the Lumber River, which is more typical of Coastal Plain streams. The ratio of base flow to runoff in the Waccamaw River may have changed relative to that in the Lumber River in the late 1970's. There was greater variability in Waccamaw River streamflow than in Lumber River flow, and flow variability in the Waccamaw River may have increased slightly during 1985-94.

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.

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.

Industrial use increased dramatically during the late 1970's and early 1980's because of increased exploration and development of uranium and coal resources. The San Juan structural basin is a northwest-trending, asymmetric structural depression at the eastern edge of the Colorado Plateau. The basin contains as much as 14,000 feet of sedimentary rocks overlying a Precambrian basement complex. The sedimentary rocks dip basinward from the basin margins toward the troughlike structural center, or deepest part of the basin. Rocks of Triassic age were selected as the lower boundary for the study. The basin is well defined by structural boundaries in many places with structural relief of as much as 20,000 feet reported. Faulting is prevalent in parts of the basin with displacement of several thousand feet along major faults. The regional aquifers in the basin generally are coincident with the geologic units that have been mapped. Data on the hydrologic properties of the regional aquifers are minimal. Most data were collected on those aquifers associated with uranium and coal resource production. These data are summarized in table format in the report. The regional flow system throughout most of the basin has been affected by the production of oil or gas and subsequent disposal of produced brine. To date more than 26,000 oil- or gas-test holes have been drilled in the basin, the majority penetrating no deeper than the bottom of the Cretaceous rocks. The general water chemistry of the regional aquifers is based on available data. The depositional environments are the major factor controlling the quality of water in the units. The dominant ions are generally sodium, bicarbonate, and sulfate. A detailed geochemical study of three sandstone aquifers--Morrison, Dakota, and Gallup--was undertaken in the northwestern part of the study area. Results of this study indicate that water chemistry changed in individual wells over short periods of time, not expected in a regional flow system. The chemistry of the water is affected by mixing of recharge, ion filtrate, or very dilute ancient water, and by leakage of saline water. The entire system of groundwater flow and its controlling factors has been defined as the conceptual model. A steady-state, three-dimensional groundwater flow model was constructed to simulate modern predevelopment flow in the post-Jurassic rocks of the regional flow system. In the groundwater flow model, 14 geologic units or combinations of geologic units were considered to be regional aquifers, and 5 geologic units or combinations of geologic units were considered to be regional confining units.

Seepage survey results indicated that streamflow loss in the vicinity of the municipal well field ranged from 1 to 5 ft super(3)/s (cubic feet per second). Simulations of May 1993 conditions indicate that well pumping decreased simulated streamflow by an average of 3.03 ft super(3)/s for the month, of which 2.45 ft super(3)/s was induced infiltration from the stream and 0.58 ft super(3)/s was intercepted baseflow. Of the total well pumpage for May 1993 (265 acre-feet), about 57 percent was from induced infiltration from the river, about 13 percent was from intercepted base flow, and about 30 percent was from decreased aquifer storage, outflow from the aquifer, evapotranspiration, and increased recharge and inflow to the aquifer. Simulations of November 1994 conditions indicate that well pumping decreased simulated streamflow by an average of 3.15 ft super(3)/s for the month, of which 1.0 ft super(3)/s was contributed from the stream and 2.15 ft super(3)/s was contributed from intercepted base flow. Of the total well pumpage for November 1994 (264 acre-feet), about 22 percent was from induced infiltration from the river, about 48 percent was from intercepted base flow, and about 30 percent was from decreased aquifer storage, outflow from the aquifer, evapotranspiration, and increased recharge and inflow to the aquifer. Steady-state simulations of hypothetical conditions were conducted to develop graphs that show the relations among groundwater levels in the well field, pumping rate, and streamflow.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Groundwater-flow systems generally are local, and ground water discharges to streams. Both ground water and surface water in the basin are used for drinking-water supply. Groundwater quality and the relation between groundwater quality and hydrogeologic and land-use factors were assessed in 1993 in bedrock aquifers of the basin. A total of 82 wells were sampled from July to November 1993 using a stratified random sampling scheme that included 8 hydrogeologic and 4 land-use categories to distribute the samples evenly over the area of the basin. The eight hydrogeologic units were determined by formation or lithology. The land-use categories were (1) forested, open, and undeveloped; (2) agricultural; (3) residential; and (4) industrial and commercial. Well-water samples were analyzed for major and minor ions, nutrients, volatile organic compounds (VOC's), pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyl compounds (PCB's), and radon-222. Concentrations of some constituents exceeded maximum contaminant levels (MCL) or secondary maximum contaminant levels (SMCL) established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for drinking water.

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.

The analysis was conducted to evaluate the current (1993) network and to determine if reactivating discontinued gaging stations and adding new gaging stations on small drainage areas would improve regional peak-flow information. Peak flows having recurrence intervals of 15, 50, and 100 years and planning horizons of zero and 10 years for three hydrologic regions in North Dakota were used in the network analysis. Results of the network analysis indicate that the average sampling mean-square error could be reduced by about 10 percent for the 15-, 50-, and 100-year recurrence intervals by reactivating a minimum of two to five discontinued gaging stations in each hydrologic region. The reactivated discontinued gaging stations added to the current (1993) network should be located on streams having small drainage areas and steep main-channel slopes. For the 15-year recurrence interval and a 10-year planning horizon, adding a new gaging station at two new locations in each region instead of reactivating two discontinued gaging stations in each region would reduce the average sampling mean-square error by an average of about 13 percent in each region. The new gaging stations added to the current (1993) network should be located on streams having small drainage areas and mild or steep main-channel slopes in order to obtain improved regional peak-flow information.

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.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-10-08 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Hydrogeologic investigation and simulation of groundwater flow in the Upper Floridan aquifer of north-central Florida and southwestern Georgia and delineation of contributing areas for selected city of Tallahassee, Florida, water-supply wells AN - 16095260; 4202933 AB - A 4-year investigation of the Upper Floridan aquifer and ground-water flow system in Leon County, Florida, and surrounding counties of north-central Florida and southwestern Georgia began in 1990. The purpose of the investigation was to describe the ground-water flow system and to delineate the contributing areas to selected City of Tallahassee, Florida, water-supply wells. The investigation was prompted by the detection of low levels of tetrachloroethylene in ground-water samples collected from several of the city's water-supply wells. Hydrologic data and previous studies indicate that: ground-water flow within the Upper Floridan aquifer can be considered steady-state; the Upper Floridan aquifer is a single water-bearing unit; recharge is from precipitation; and that discharge occurs as spring flow, leakage to rivers, leakage to the Gulf of Mexico, and pumpage. Measured transmissivities of the aquifer ranged from 1,300 ft super(2)/d (feet squared per day) to 1,300,000 ft super(2)/d. Steady-state ground-water flow in the Upper Floridan aquifer was simulated using a three-dimensional ground-water flow model. Transmissivities ranging from less than 5,000 ft super(2)/d to greater than 11,000,000 ft super(2)/d were required to calibrate to observed conditions. Recharge rates used in the model ranged from 18.0 inches per year in areas where the aquifer was unconfined to less than 2 inches per year in broad areas where the aquifer was confined. Contributing areas to five Tallahassee water-supply wells were simulated by particle-tracking techniques. Particles were seeded in model cells containing pumping wells then tracked backwards in time toward recharge areas. The contributing area for each well was simulated twice, once assuming a porosity of 25 percent and once assuming a porosity of 5 percent. A porosity of 25 percent is considered a reasonable average value for the Upper Floridan aquifer; the 5 percent porosity simulated the movement of groundwater through only solution-enhanced bedding plains and fractures. The contributing areas were generally elliptical in shape, reflecting the influence of the sloping potentiometric surface. The contributing areas delineated for a 5 percent porosity were always much larger than those determined using a 25 percent porosity. The lowest average groundwater velocity computed within a contributing area, using a 25 percent porosity, was 1.0 ft/d (foot per day) and the highest velocity was 1.6 ft/d. The lowest average ground-water velocity, determined using a 5 percent porosity, was 2.4 ft/d and the highest was 7.4 ft/d. The contributing areas for each of the five wells was also determined analytically and compared to the model-derived areas. The upgradient width of the simulated contributing areas were larger than the upgradient width of the analytically determined contributing areas for four of the five wells. The model could more accurately delineate contributing areas because of the ability to simulate wells as partially penetrating and by incorporating complex, three-dimensional aquifer characteristics, which the analytical method could not.

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 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.

AN - 36400499; 6221 AB - PURPOSE: The management of the water supplies in the Upalco Unit of the Central Utah Project in the Uintah Basin northeastern Utah is proposed. The proposed action would manage the water supply within the Upalco Unit to develop resources of the Ute Indian Tribe of the Uintah and Ouray Reservation, provide early and late season irrigation water, provide municipal water supplies, and provide water and facilities for environmental and recreational purposes. Issues of concern include the effects on sociocultural resources, socioeconomics, agriculture, water and water quality, aquatics, wetlands, wildlife, threatened and endangered species, cultural resources, recreation, and visual resources. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action (the Talmage Alternative), the Crystal Ranch Dam and Reservoir would be constructed on the Yellowstone River with a total active storage capacity of 24,000 acre-feet. The existing offstream Big Sand Wash Dam and Reservoir would be enlarged by 9,000 acre-feet for a total active storage capacity of 21,000 acre-feet. For Indian water rights and secondary water rights, average annual irrigation water supplies would increase by 9,230 acre-feet and 10,278 acre-feet, respectively. The city of Roosevelt would receive 3,000 acre-feet of water per year for municipal and industrial use. Five existing diversion structures would be replaced and one new diversion structure would be built. Approximately 22.3 miles of pipeline would be placed in existing canals and about 1.2 miles would be placed in new right-of-way for the rehabilitation of seven canal laterals. Approximately 6.4 miles of 39-inch-diameter pipeline would be constructed. Ten high mountain lakes in the upper Yellowstone River Watershed and within the High Uintas Wilderness would be stabilized. Water levels in these lakes would be constant year-round. Five fishery and wildlife enhancement projects and five mitigation projects are proposed. Instream and pond fishery habitat improvements would include fish stocking and fish passages via the newly designed diversion dams. Recreational facilities would be created and upgraded to improve recreational opportunities. Water rights would be acquired on about 1,300 acres of currently irrigated secondary water-righted lands, making available about 3,300 acre-feet of water that would become part of the project water supply. The other three alternatives (the Cow Canyon Alternative, the Crystal Ranch Alternative, and the Twin Pots Alternative) would include similar project features and mitigation measures to varying degrees and locations within the Upalco Unit. The overall value of irrigated crop production would increase by about $1.5 million annually. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide additional water storage, improved distribution of water, water conservation, municipal and industrial water, instream flows, fish and wildlife enhancements, and recreation development. Changes in the quantity and the timing of surface water flows would allow more water to be used for crop production. Improved water management would decrease the amount of water leaving the Upalco Unit and Uinta Basin. Stream fisheries would be enhanced significantly downstream of the reservoir. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would adversely affect water quality including exceedances of agricultural water quality criteria for total dissolved solids. The project's features could adversely affect downstream water resources and the modification of peak flows could adversely affect the river ecosystem. Dam, reservoir, and canal rehabilitation would adversely affect approximately 364 acres of wetland and riparian resources with a permanent loss of about 349 acres. Additionally, an estimated 2,212 acres of wetland would also be adversely affected by land retirement, reduction of secondary irrigation water, and irrigation of Tribal idle lands. Total known and estimated total permanent losses of wetlands and riparian communities would be 2,561 acres. The mitigation measures would result in a net loss of 1,429 acres of existing wetlands and riparian communities. Approximately 753 acres of upland and open water habitat would be adversely affected with an additional 817 acres of native upland communities which would also be permanently affected by conversion of Tribal idle lands to irrigated lands. Known and estimated total permanent losses of uplands and open water habitat would be 1,570 acres. Critical deer and elk winter range and critical year-long moose range preferred habitat would be adversely affected by dam and reservoir construction. The mitigation of wetland and wildlife resources would be included. Threatened and endangered species could also be adversely affected. Six historic sites would be adversely affected by the construction of the project features. Facilities at the Crystal Ranch Dam and Reservoir would exceed visual quality objectives on the Uintah and Ouray Reservation. The current levels of Uinta Basin law enforcement services could be inadequate due to the population and traffic increases.

AN - 36405083; 6218 AB - PURPOSE: The operation of an open-pit gold mine by the Homestake Mining Company within the historic Eureka Mining District in central Nevada, is proposed. The project area is located 0.7 miles northwest of Eureka, Nevada, in an area known for the production of lead, silver, and gold during the late 1800's. Issues of concern include air quality, geology and minerals, paleontology, water quality and quantity, soils, vegetation resources, woodland products, wildlife and fisheries resourcesspecial status species, land use authorization and access, recreation and wilderness, visual resources, cultural heritage, social and economic values, noise and blasting vibrations, and hazardous materials and wastes. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. The preferred alternative is a combination of the proposed action plus the Partial Backfilling Alternative. The proposed action would include mine development and surface disturbance on a total of 696 acres, most of which is public land administered by the Bureau of Land Management. During the expected 7.5-year life of the project, a total of 60 million tons of waste rock and 8.0 million tons of ore would be removed from the mine. Most of the waste rock and all of the ore would require drilling and blasting. Several blasts would occur each day. Mine waste would be hauled from the open pit to one of two proposed waste rock dumps and dumped in 50-foot lifts. The Partial Backfilling Alternative would reduce the amount of waste rock placed in the dumps by 3.0 million tons and increase the amount of revegetated surface area by six acres. Other project facilities would include a crushing, grinding, and agglomeration facility; heap leaching facilities; and an office building and parking lot, a warehouses and shop, growth media stockpiles, a soil borrow source, and powerline and water pipeline corridors. These project components would interconnected by haul roads, service roads, and the main access road connecting the facility with US 50. Runoff would be directed around the open pit and the general mine site by diversion ditches constructed upgradient of the general mine site. Also under consideration are the East Waste Rock Dump Alternative and the West Waste Rock Dump Alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would result in the employment of an average of 225 workers during the construction period and 121 permanent workers through the life of the operation. The total annual payroll would be $5.2 million. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Geochemical testing indicates that arsenic and aluminum could leach from the alluvium and oxidized limestone; extremely low levels of arsenic could reach groundwater. Of the 696 acres disturbed by mining operations, some 88 acres would not be reclaimed following mine closure. Mine operations would result in the loss of habitat for mule deer and the potential loss of habitat for threatened and endangered species: roosting bats, ferruginous hawks, and burrowing owls. The waste rock dump sites would create a visual contrast with the surrounding countryside. The Eureka Historic District, which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places, would be indirectly affected by mining activities. Noise levels would increase slightly for Eureka residents.

Preparation date: December 24, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - ARMY'S LAND ACQUISITION PROJECT FOR THE NATIONAL TRAINING CENTER, FORT IRWIN, SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, AND PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE CALIFORNIA DESERT CONSERVATION AREA PLAN. AN - 36403848; 6217 AB - PURPOSE: The acquisition of approximately 310,296 acres of public lands to support the training mission of the U.S. Army National Training Center (NTC) at Fort Irwin, located in southeast California, is proposed. Fort Irwin consists of approximately 642,000 acres of land near the city of Barstow. The lands to be withdrawn from entry under public lands for use by the NTC are located east of the national training center in the Silurian Valley, Valjean Hills, and Soda Mountains. State Highway 127 bisects the area into east and west sections. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, approximately 331,217 acres of land, yielding approximately 277,244 acres of net maneuverable acres, would be acquired. The lands to the north and northeast would provide a northern access corridor around the Avawatz Mountains. The acquisition would include approximately 310,296 acres, which are administered by the Bureau of Land Management, to be withdrawn from the public domain. Approximately 15,773 acres of state lands and about 5,148 acres of private lands would also be acquired through purchase. An additional approximately 24,500-acre area would also be acquired along the northern border of the NTC and Death Valley National Park; the area would serve as a buffer area between the NTC and the park. Communication equipment would be erected and up to six underpasses would be constructed for military vehicles crossing Highway 127. The other action alternatives would include land acquisitions from approximately 284,885 acres, with approximately 264,776 net maneuverable acres, for the Superior Valley Alternative, to the enlistment of approximately 185,500 acres of land, yielding approximately 170,401 net maneuverable acres for the Avawatz Alternative. The incorporation of lands into military ownership would reduce the amount of property tax revenues received by San Bernardino County by approximately $17,400 annually. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The acquisition of additional maneuverable land would enable the NTC to conduct its mission of training brigade-sized units in in accordance with present and future joint and combined-arms operations doctrines. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Any ecological community occurring in terrain with a slope of less than 20 percent would be adversely affected. Soil and vegetation would be disturbed due to intensive use of tracked and wheeled vehicles, landing pads and similar facilities, and trenching for tank and gun emplacement. The soils on up to 277,244 acres of land would be adversely affected due to the crushing of rock outcrops, the disturbance of desert pavement, the compaction of upper soil layers, and wind and water erosion. There would be significant large-scale losses of vegetation in concentrated activity areas that are slow to recover. Up to 256,325 acres of Mojave creosote scrub would be lost, including habitat for a population of desert tortoise. The proposed action could adversely affect up to 2,845 acres of the entire 17,253 acres of Joshua trees woodland that occur in the acquisition area on topography suitable for staging or in an area of potentially high impact; the Joshua tree woodland is an endemic habitat to the Mojave Desert and serves as a habitat for a related association of endemic wildlife species. Approximately 9,707 acres of stabilized or partially stabilized sand fields and sand dunes would be adversely affected; these communities, which are relatively rare and considered to be in decline in California, are considered sensitive areas. Approximately 3,666 acres of desert saltbush scrub would also be adversely affected. Operations would result in the loss of habitat for six sensitive plants. Environmentally sensitive lakebeds, springs, and seeps would be marked off limits during exercises. Five legislatively-designated wilderness study areas would be located within the extended boundaries. Approximately 272,280 acres of wildlife habitat would be lost or heavily disturbed and wildlife movement between resource areas eliminated in the tributaries of the Amargosa River, Sheep Creek Springs, and Salt Creek. At least 453 prehistoric archaeological sites, 201 historic sites, and 13 sites with both prehistoric and historic components would be adversely affected by military activities. It is unknown how many sites would be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. The adverse impacts to paleontological sites could not be determined due to the lack of surveys. Under the proposed action, public lands would no longer be available for public use, including recreational activities, except through defined public access policy developed by the NTC. Noise levels within the boundaries would increase due to the presence of military vehicles and aircraft. Military activities in the vicinity of Corridor D would have a potential to damage utility towers and disrupt electrical service to the Los Angeles basin.

AN - 36409078; 6210 AB - PURPOSE: The mining of gold by the Alta Gold Company (Alta) at the Griffon Mining Project on National Forest System 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 (Discovery Ridge and Hammer Ridge) 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, processing of the leachate to recover gold, and 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. Issues of concern include the effects on air quality, surface water, ground water, plant and wildlife species and their habitat, reclamation potential, permitted livestock grazing, recreation, wild horses, heritage resources, mine economics, and safety. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (Alternative B) would include two pits mined concurrently, three small waste rock dumps with DH:1V slopes adjacent to the pits, and access to the facilities area via US Highway 6 and along Ellison Creek. Process facilities would include crushers, leach pads, and recovery process facility. 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 would include the mining of 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 proposed action with mitigation (Alternative C) was developed to respond to certain issues raised during scoping. This alternative 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. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, mine operation would play a direct and indirect role in the local economy through wages paid to employees. The workforce requirement of 60 to 65 employees would be met primarily from local and nearby communities. White Pine County would benefits from increased tax revenue from mine development. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would disturb 161 acres, resulting in both short- and long-term changes to the existing topography in the project area including all facility locations, proposed pits, waste rock dumps, and leach pad. Seven of the nine vegetative communities would be disturbed with pinyon and juniper, black sagebrush, and mixed brush having the majority of the disturbance. There would be some direct and unavoidable disturbance of wetlands. Indirect losses of habitat would occur for various wildlife species as well as potential effects to candidate and sensitive species.

AN - 36387527; 6202 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a revised management plan for the Black Hills National Forest in western South Dakota and northeastern Wyoming is proposed. The 1.24-million-acre forest is among the most developed forests in the National Forest System. Private lands and lands managed by other agencies are intermingled with forest system lands. Many residential subdivisions are found on the private landholdings. Mining, logging, ranching, and tourism are important local industries. The forest plan, which was issued in August 1982, is in need of revision in order to meet legal requirements and to respond to a variety of public concerns. Focal issues include the need to maintain biological diversity, monitor and regulate streamflow, evaluate unroaded areas for wilderness designation, and establish appropriate levels of hard-rock mining, oil and gas exploration and development, and timber harvesting. Nine alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative G), the movement of the forest to a naturally diverse ecosystem would be accelerated by increasing the amount of grass and forb conditions by timber harvesting and by balancing other resource objectives. It would increase the amount of low-density open stands. One area would be managed to simulate stand-replacing fires. Some late-successional landscapes would be designed to let natural processes dictate the vegetative conditions. Fire control would continue to be used to protect older stands of trees, but the stands could eventually be lost to uncontrollable wildfire or mountain pine beetle infestations. Therefore, the landscape in those areas would likely be diverse with older trees interspersed within younger, irregular stands. At least three riparian areas would be restored by raising the water table. Some 25,500 acres of timber would be harvested each year for the next ten years, primarily by seed cut and overstory removal methods. Prescribed fire would be used on 8,000 acres each year if all funds were available. Approximately 277 miles of roads would be constructed and 179 miles of roads would be obliterated. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the wilderness character of the area would be preserved, while allowing appropriate levels of commercial activity. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The road construction, timber harvesting, and prescribed burning would degrade air quality, increase erosion and sediment delivery to streams, and displace wildlife species. Logging and thinning would increase fuel hazards in the short-term if slash were left scattered on the ground. LEGAL MANDATES: National Forest Management Act of 1976 (16 U.S.C. 1600 et seq.).

Preparation date: December 17, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - TUMACACORI NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK, SANTA CRUZ COUNTY, ARIZONA. AN - 36398907; 6200 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management and development plan for the Tumacacori National Historical Park in southern Arizona is proposed. The park is located 18 miles north of the city of Nogales and the U.S.-Mexico border, and 43 miles south of the city of Tucson. In 1908, the park was established as a national monument in order to preserve an ancient Spanish mission on the grounds; in 1990, Congress changed the designation of the park to a national historical park and combined the existing monument with the ruins of two other nearby Spanish colonial sites (Calabazas and Guevavi). Issues of concern include the effects on the park boundary, mission trail, development, park operations, and adobe ruins preservations, along with the effects of surrounding land uses on park resources. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative C), are considered this final EIS. Under the proposed action (the Proposed General Management Plan), the park would be managed to preserve, fully interpret, and maintain the cultural resources at all three sites, to maintain and enhance natural resources, and to develop facilities to accommodate visitor services and National Park Service administrative functions. At Tumacacori, major features of this alternative would include ultimately removing two of the three employee residences from their current location over known archeological resources. The residence not removed, residence number 1, would continue to be used as office space. A maintenance facility would be developed on land proposed to be acquired to the east. Tumacacori, Calabazas, and Guevavi would eventually be linked along the mission trail, the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail. Increased staffing park-wide would be recommended. Facilities at Calabazas would include a visitor contact facility, visitor parking, a small maintenance shop, and employee housing. Visitors would also access Calabazas from the mission trail. Guevavi would be accessible to the public via guided tours. There would be no visitor or administrative facilities at this site. As at Calabazas, visitors would access Guevavi from the mission trail. The estimated development costs are $1.12 million, and the estimated operating costs are $755,000 annually. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would serve long-term productivity by protecting significant features of the country's cultural heritage which would provide enjoyment and education for visitors in perpetuity. The proposed staff increases would also help to ensure the long-term protection of the site's unique resource values. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, some visual, soil, and vegetative resources would be adversely affected in the short term.

AN - 36411375; 6197 AB - PURPOSE: The exchange of land between the federal government (Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest and the Bureau of Land Management) and Weyerhaeuser Company in western Washington is proposed. The exchange would involve approximately 6,273 acres of National Forest system land and 32,010 acres of Weyerhaeuser lands. Although areas of subsurface mineral rights would be conveyed as part of the exchange, no mining activity of any kind would be part of the proposed action. The lands considered for exchange are characterized by a checkerboard or alternate section ownership pattern where one-square mile areas are alternately owned by the public and Weyerhauser. The exchange would consolidate ownership and enhance future conservation and management. Issues of concern include the effects on wildlife habitat; threatened, endangered, and sensitive plant and animal species; recreation, access, and visual quality; wilderness areas; timber supply, tax base, and restoration costs; fish habitat and water quality; mineral estate; and cultural resources. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action, the lands would be exchanged on a value for value basis. Weyerhaeuser would manage acquired lands according to Washington Forest Practices Rules and other applicable local, State, and federal laws. These lands would be managed with a timber emphasis and timber harvest rotations would be approximately 50 years. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 3), the Forest Service and Weyerhaeuser would complete the proposed exchange except that Weyerhaeuser would remove 1,885 acres from the exchange (High Lakes Parcels 2, 4, and 6 and Skykomish Parcel 2). The 1,885 acres plus an additional 141 acres would be donated to the National Forest System contingent on the implementation of this alternative. Roughly half of the donated acreage would be included in the Alpine Lakes Wilderness. Additionally, Wyerhaeuser would receive the subsurface mineral rights to 7,173 acres where Wyerhaeuser or other private entities currently own the surface rights. Weyerhaeuser would also reserve the subsurface mineral rights on up to 12,639 acres. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The consolidation of public and private lands in the project area would improve overall land management. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Threatened and endangered species with habitats on lands transferring to private ownership would have lower levels of protection. Because more land would be transferred into public ownership than into private, some decline in state and county tax revenue would occur.

AN - 36412406; 6196 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan for development and visitor use of the Petroglyph National Monument, on the west mesa near Albuquerque, New Mexico, is proposed. The 7,244-acre monument was established in June 1990 in order to preserve the more than 15,000 prehistoric and historic petroglyphs and other resources located in the region. Most of the petroglyphs are believed to have been created between 1300 AD and 1600 AD; others are believed to be over 3,000 years old. The petroglyph images have a deep religious and cultural meaning to present-day Pueblo Indians. Focal issues addressed include recreation and public uses, erosion and flood control, interpretation, competing land claims, scenic quality, local communities, Native American Indian tribes, special uses, and the protection of archaeological resources and the cultural landscape. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 4), are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 1), visitors would be directed to a visitor center/heritage education center at Boca Negra Canyon. Horseback and bicycle riding would be permitted on selected designated mesa-top trails and at three crossing points. No horses or bicycles would be permitted in petroglyph viewing areas or archaeological sites anywhere in the monument. Mesa-top resources and visitor experiences would be monitored to identify adverse impacts. Mitigating measures would be developed to avoid adverse effects on the ferruginous hawk, which is being considered for listing as a threatened species, and for two rare cactus species. 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 of different ages and abilities to see petroglyphs within the context of the escarpment, mesa top, volcanoes, Rio Grande valley, and Sandia Mountains. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The increased recreational use would increase the potential of wildlife, geologic, and archaeological site disturbance; in addition, increased visitation could disturb the indigenous Indian population.

AN - 36408820; 6191 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a pumped storage hydroelectric project with an estimated installed operating capacity of approximately 200 megawatts (MW), located five miles west of the city of Las Vegas, Nevada, is proposed by Blue Diamond South Pumped Storage Power Company and the Blue Diamond Power Partners Limited Partnership (the applicant). The project considered in this final EIS would be a self-contained, off-stream project, in that it would use two reservoirs, transferring water back and forth from reservoir to reservoir, to either generate or store energy. The project would consist of a 31-acre upper reservoir contained by a lined and covered earthen embankment with a top dam elevation of 4,828 feet above mean sea level (msl) located near the crest of Blue Diamond Hill; a lower reservoir (afterbay) contained by a lined and covered earthen embankment located near the foot of Blue Diamond Hill, with a surface area of about 32 acres and a top dam elevation of 3,320 feet; an approximately 1,137-foot-long, 12-foot-wide, concrete-lined inclined shaft; a 1,176-foot-long, 12-foot-wide tunnel connecting with a 12-foot-wide penstock that would be installed in a trench, extending approximately 4,365 feet to an underground powerhouse, and upstream of the powerhouse bifurcating into two eight-foot-wide headrace tunnels leading to two generating units; an underground powerhouse immediately north of the afterbay at an approximate elevation of 3,087 feet msl, containing two 100-MW reversible pump-turbine units; two eight-foot-wide tailrace pipes extending about 100 feet from the powerhouse to the afterbay; a control building and substation located near the afterbay; a 2.2-mile-long, 138-kilovolt transmission line that would be routed eastward to connect with a Nevada Power Company transmission line; an approximately two-mile-long, 12-inch-wide water pipeline; project access roads including upgraded existing area roads for approximately 22,000 feet; and appurtenant facilities and equipment. The primary project facilities, including reservoirs, penstock, and powerhouse, would be new. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would satisfy the immediate electric power needs of the Las Vegas area and reduce the amount of power purchased from outside sources by the Nevada Power Company. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would permanently alter 182 acres of public lands and commit those lands to energy production and transmission. That acreage would include about 104 acres of creosote bush scrub habitat; its value to wildlife would be lost. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Power Act of 1920, as amended (16 U.S.C. 791(a) et seq.).

AN - 36412382; 6181 AB - PURPOSE: The restoration of chinook salmon to the Clearwater River Subbasin in north-central Idaho is proposed. The Clearwater River is a tributary to the Snake River, which empties into the Columbia River. Hydroelectric and flood control dams built in 1910 and 1927 eliminated most the Clearwater River salmon, but those two dams were removed in the 1960s and 1970s, making most of the Clearwater a free-flowing stream once again. A century ago, 16 million salmon and steelhead returned from the sea to spawn in the river basin; now fewer than 2.5 million return each year. Issues identified during the scoping process include the possibility that the project would fail if mainstem Columbia River juvenile and adult passage problems were not solved; genetic risks to fish listed an endangered or threatened; potential impacts to wild and resident fish stocks because of increased competition for food and space; and water quality. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the Nez Perce Tribe would build and operate two central incubation and rearing hatcheries and six satellite facilities. Spring, summer, and fall chinook salmon would be reared and acclimated to different areas in the sub-basin and released at the hatchery and satellite sites or in other watercourses throughout the sub-basin. The supplementation program differs from other hatchery programs because the fish would be released at different sizes and return to reproduce naturally in the areas where they were released. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would help to reverse the historic decline of anadromous fish in the Columbia River basin. It would establish a self-sustaining chinook population within two to five generations. It would also benefit the local economy, increasing employment and the number of anglers seeking fishing and other recreation opportunities in the area. As manager of hatchery facilities, the Nez Perce Tribe would have a direct influence on fish runs returning to their homelands. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The fish releases could adversely affect the existing Clearwater subbasin fish populations through genetic risks, food and habitat competition, predation, and disease transmission from hatchery fish to wild stocks.

AN - 36400853; 6177 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of the general management plan (GMP) for the Yosemite National Park, located within east-central California, is proposed. This draft addendum to the draft supplement to the final EIS of September 1980 addresses the possible revision which would provide for new and replacement housing outside the Yosemite Valley for some of the 1,900 employees who currently work and reside in the park. Two relocation sites are under consideration: El Portal, which is approximately 16 miles east of Yosemite Valley along California 140 and adjacent to the Merced River, and Foresta, which is approximately 12 miles northeast of Yosemite Valley along California 120. Most of the employees currently residing in the park work for the National Park Service (NPS) and the park's primary concessioner, Yosemite Park and Curry Company. The GMP proposed that most housing and administrative services be moved to El Portal so that the buildings would not detract from the park's natural beauty. A set of alternative relocation plans were presented in a 1992 draft supplement. This draft addendum presents two additional alternatives. The new proposed action (Alternative E) would add 689 new employee beds at El Portal. A total of 1,014 employees would remain in housing in the valley, and 345 would move out of the valley. All tent cabins and other substandard housing would be removed. Headquarters for both the national park and the concession would be moved to El Portal. Alternative F would also relocate 345 employee beds from the valley. Most of the new housing would be in El Portal (528 employees). The headquarters for the park and the concession would be moved to Wawona, and housing for 161 related employees would also be constructed there. The former proposed action is designated Alternative G. Estimated planning and construction costs for the new proposed action are $150.3 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, slightly more than 11 acres within the Yosemite Valley would be restored to natural conditions. 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: The construction would displace approximately 81 acres of vegetation. Flashing floods along the Merced River would put at risk some of the new housing constructed in El Portal.

Preparation date: December 2, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - KLONDIKE GOLD RUSH NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK, SKAGWAY, ALASKA, AND SEATTLE, KING COUNTY, WASHINGTON. AN - 36398718; 6171 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of a management plan for the four units of Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park in or near Skagway, Alaska, and Seattle, Washington, is proposed. The Alaska portion consists of three separate but related units: Skagway and the historic district; the Chilkoot Trail, including the old townsite of Dyea; and the White Pass Trail and city area. The Seattle unit consists of a visitor center in the Pioneer Square Historic District in downtown Seattle. This final EIS is a collaborative effort between two vastly separated support offices and two park locations. The proposed action in Alaska would include development concept plans for Dyea and the Chilkoot Trail, and expand park management, development, resource protection, and maintenance components to meet most, but not all, of the expected visitor-use increases and interests in the park. A Klondike History Research Center would be established, in cooperation with the city of Skagway and state of Alaska, to process, study, and store historical, ethnographic, and natural history artifacts. Access to the Dyea area would be improved with a rerouted, wider gravel road, and parking, picnic, interpretive, and trail opportunities. Selected town streets would be cleared and signed. Archaeological inventory, surveys, and mapping; marking the historical segments; minor trail rerouting; and interpretive programs would occur along the Chilkoot Trail and along White Pass. In Seattle, the proposed action would lead eventually to acquiring a permanent location for the park visitor center, park offices, and historic collections. In the interim, expanded lease space at the present location would allow the exhibit area to expand and provide additional information on the role of the Pacific Northwest in the gold rush. Additional interpretive information (exhibits and walking tours) would be developed within the Pioneer Square area. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, implementation would enhance visitor understanding of the Alaskan Gold Rush and the historic significance of specific trails and sites. Park visitation would increase, and the resulting increase in tourism would benefit the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Facility relocation and development would result in the loss of six acres of vegetation in the Dyea area. Some slight reduction in visual quality would occur at campgrounds along the Chilkoot Trail.

Preparation date: November 27, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WASTE ISOLATION PILOT PLANT, EDDY COUNTY, NEW MEXICO (SECOND DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF OCTOBER 1980). AN - 36400428; 6166 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, New Mexico, is proposed. 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, defense 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. This second draft supplement to the final EIS of October 1980 considers a proposed action, three action alternatives, two No Action Alternatives, and various subalternatives. Under the proposed action, 175,600 cubic yards meters of TRU waste would disposed of in the WIPP repository. All waste would be transported by truck in 55-gallon drums. 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 $19.1 billion in 1994 dollars. 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 5,700 direct and indirect 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. 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 - 36411176; 6143 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 draft 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 assumes 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.

Preparation date: November 1, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - EL RANCHO SUBSTATION, SANTA FE COUNTY, NEW MEXICO. AN - 36403953; 6164 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation by Jemez Mountains Electric Cooperative, Inc., of a 69/12.47-kilovolt (69/12.47-kV) distribution substation and related facilities in the El Rancho area of Santa Fe County, New Mexico, is proposed. The area is presently being served by a temporary substation located on San Ildefonso Pueblo trust lands; the Pueblo have indicated that the easement for this site would not be extended. Construction of a new substation was begun in 1990, but was halted just prior to completion in order to conduct a cultural resources assessment. In 1991, a judge ordered that a more comprehensive assessment be undertaken. One factor in this ruling was the recent nomination of the area adjacent to the project for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. Completion of the project would require two federal actions: the Bureau of Indian Affairs must approve an easement for the substation and its transmission /distribution lines on tribal trust lands; and the Rural Utilities Service must agree to release loan funds. The project site would require 1.0 acre of land, which would be fenced. Substation equipment would include terminal and switching for the 69-kV transmission line, a power transformer, a regulator bank, four electronic vacuum reclosers, a control house, and supports for the bus work and low-voltage terminations. The project would also involve the construction of the 69-kV transmission line and three to four underground distribution tie lines. Seven possible sites are considered in this final EIS; the preferred site is Site Number 2, the site originally selected for the project. POSITIVE IMPACTS: A new substation in the El Rancho area would provide a reliable source of electricity to an area experiencing rapid population growth, and integrate the area within the regional distribution system, thereby reducing the length of outages in the region. Construction of the transmission line would not preclude the continuance of land uses in areas crossed by the easement. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction activities would have short-term adverse impacts on air quality and noise levels. The site would also create a visual intrusion of the existing landscape and could detract from the adjacent historic property, where traditional Matachines dances are held.

AN - 36413293; 6140 AB - PURPOSE: The construction by the Gila River Indian Community of a common-use irrigation system to deliver water to 146,330 acres within the Gila River Indian Reservation and the rehabilitation of the San Carlos Indian Irrigation Project Joint Works Facilities, located in southern Arizona, are proposed. The site is located in the Lower Sonoran Desert, and the Reservation makes up roughly 85 percent of the project area. The overall character of the area is rural, although it is located just south of the Phoenix metropolitan area. Currently the main sources of irrigation water for the Community are surface water from the Gila River and San Carlos Reservoir, tailwater from Salt River Valley farming operations and groundwater from wells. Approximately 66,000 acres have been developed for irrigated agriculture. The irrigation water that presently reaches the project area is conveyed through the Joint Works Facilities, which are 60 to 70 years old and beginning to signs of deterioration. The canals are not lined and water conveyance efficiencies are considered low by today's standards. A new system is needed to increase water deliveries and improve efficiency. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 5), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 4) would deliver all surface water through the Pima Lateral. Groundwater would be delivered by wells located throughout the project area. The Joint Works Facilities upgrade would include lining the canals and increasing the capacity of the Pima Lateral; constructing a new Florence-Casa Grande Canal adjacent to the present canal and a new canal to deliver water directly from the aqueduct to the Reservation; rehabilitating the McClellan Wash Siphon and Southside Canal to the Reservation boundary; constructing 29 miles of drainage channels and dikes to protect structures during flood events; and rehabilitating 50 wells. Additional features would include the rehabilitation of the Sacaton Dam, construction of a new reservoir, and the development of six new water delivery points. The estimated costs of the preferred alternative are $1.38 billion. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The concrete lining of the irrigation system would reduce water losses and increase effective water supply, reduce operating and maintenance costs, and improve conveyance efficiencies. The expanded water supply would support agricultural development on 80,330 new acres, generating $125 million per year of gross value product. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Alternative 4 would result in the disturbance of 130,125 acres of land. Disturbed areas would be invaded by non-native weeds. New well development could result in earth fissuring and subsidence from groundwater declines. Construction activities would increase soil erosion throughout the area.

Preparation date: October 30, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - IMPERIAL PROJECT, IMPERIAL COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36410000; 6134 AB - PURPOSE: The construction by Chemgold, Inc., of a an open-pit heap-leach gold and silver mine project on a 1,625-acre site in Imperial County in southeastern California is proposed. The site is approximately 45 miles northeast of the city of El Centro, California, and 20 miles northwest of Yuma, Arizona. The project area consists of unpatented mining claims on public lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the project would include mining gold and silver ore and waste rock at a maximum average operating rate of 130,000 tons per days for up to 20 years; constructing and operating facilities to administer the operation; processing the ore and stockpiling the waste rock; developing and using groundwater for use in processing operations; and implementing site reclamation measures. Up to 150 million tons of ore would be leached and 450 million tons of waste rock would be deposited at the proposed waste rock stockpiles or the mined-out portions of the three planned open pits. Mining of the pits would be phased, and would consist of drilling, blasting, loading, and hauling. Ore would be hauled, without crushing, to the heap leach pad to be leached of the precious metals with a dilute solution of sodium cyanide. The leach pad would be lined with synthetic materials as an engineered zero-discharge facility with leak detection systems. Up to four ground water production wells would be drilled and completed to provide the project peak water requirements of approximately 1,000 gallons per minute and 1,200 acre-feet per day. Peak project electrical demand of eight megawatts would be provided from the utility grid, requiring the construction of 16 miles of transmission line to the project site. A 6,000-foot section of Indian Pass Road would be realigned 1,000 feet to the west. Mining activities, performed 24 hours per day and seven days per week, would commence in 1997 after all necessary permits have been obtained. Reclamation would involve regrading and revegetating and restoring pre-mining land uses where feasible. The Reduced Project Alternative and the Complete Pit Backfill Alternative are also under consideration. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, mine operations would provide jobs for 150 workers and generate $68 million in annual expenditures for payroll, taxes, and local purchases. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would disturb up to 1,392 acres of desert and woodland habitat and adversely affect desert tortoise habitat. Diversion of drainage channels and construction activities could result in accelerated soil erosion and a degradation of water quality. High pumping rates from the production wells could damage the aquifer. 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: October 25, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - DENTON-RAWHIDE MINE EXPANSION PROJECT, MINERAL COUNTY, NEVADA. AN - 36411236; 6129 AB - PURPOSE: The expansion by Kennecott Rawhide Mining Company (KRMC) of mining operations at its Denton-Rawhide Mine, located approximately 55 miles southeast of Fallon in southwest Nevada, is proposed. The mine is located on the northwest end of the Gabbs Valley, where elevations range from 4,300 to 5,300 feet above sea level. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. KRMC's proposed action would involve the expansion of the Murray Hill pit, the expansion to the waste rock disposal facility, the construction and operation of a run-of-mine leach pad facility, and the relocation of a run-on control diversion ditch. Existing mine facilities would continue to be used for processing leach ore and solutions. The expansion would add approximately five years to the active mine life, resulting in the extraction of an estimated 495,000 ounces of gold and 3,960,000 ounces of silver. The preferred alternative (Alternative A) would include all components of the proposed action and require KRMC to modify its project schedule to backfill southern and northern portions of the Murray Hill pit. The implementation of this alternative would result in the placement of 440,000 tons of waste rock in the northern portion of the pit and approximately four million tons of waste rock in the southern portion of the pit. Backfilling these portions of the pit would restore approximately 35 acres of land surface to productive use after cessation of mining operations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the backfilling of the Murray Hill pit would limit the likelihood of further mining of possible ore reserves in those areas. The continued mine development in the Denton-Rawhide Mine area would not have significant cumulative effects on wildlife, water quality and quantity and, with the exception of open pits, reclamation would reestablish vegetation on mined area. No change in numbers of employees would be anticipated; however, the mining work force would be employed for more years than currently anticipated. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The mine expansion would directly impact geologic and mineral resources in the project area through relocation of approximately 36.8 million tons of waste rock. The prosed action would result in the destruction of the Hooligan mine adit which is used for roosting and hibernation by a bat species categorized as sensitive by the BLM.

Preparation date: October 24, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - PROPOSED SWINOMISH MARINA, LA CONNER, SKAGIT COUNTY, WASHINGTON. AN - 36403734; 6127 AB - PURPOSE: The development of a 1,200-slip saltwater marina and related upland support facilities by the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community on a 240-acre site located on the west shore of the Swinomish Channel, immediately south of State Route 20, located in northwest Washington, is proposed. The project would consist of three elements: the marina basin (58 acres), wetland mitigation site (63 acres), and upland commercial site (119 acres). The upland site would primarily contain facilities associated with the marina: dry dock storage, boat repair yard, recreational vehicle park, restaurant, harbor office, public viewing area, and parking. The development of the marina would involve the excavation of 1.8 million cubic yards of material from 53 acres of actively farmed uplands, the dredging of 4.9 acres of existing wetlands, and the filling of 4.7 acres of wetlands. The excavated material would be used to dike and fill on site, to increase the height of existing upland areas, and to protect adjacent farmland from flooding. Habitat mitigation efforts would include the reintroduction of saltwater and tidal influences, the creation of 22 acres of new wetlands, and the restoration of 40.6 acres of wetlands to historic conditions. The proposal presented in this final supplement revises a proposal presented in the draft supplement of September 1992. That proposal would have required the excavation of 37 acres of jurisdictional wetlands and 9.4 acres of upland dune habitat. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The marina would serve two primary purposes: to meet the moorage needs of the recreational boating public, and to provide economic development opportunities for the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community. The project would generate a minimum of 100 construction jobs, plus up to 250 permanent jobs for members of the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community. These jobs would provide an economic stimulus to the community. The site would be altered from a commercial bingo parlor and vacant uplands to a marina with upland support facilities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would result in an increased risk of accidental spills of oil or sewage into open water. Some 167 acres of agricultural land would be permanently altered. The increases in noise and human activity in the site vicinity could affect harbor seals, river otters, birds, and other wildlife.

AN - 36401575; 6113 AB - PURPOSE: The development by River Gas Corporation (RGC) of a coalbed methane (CBM) gas production field in the Price area of Carbon County, located in east-central Utah, is proposed. Surface and mineral estate ownership of the 290-square mile project area is divided among Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Utah School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration (state), Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (UDWR), and private landowners. The purpose of the RGC proposed action is to remove all recoverable CBM gas within the portion of the project area leased by RGC and would entail development of 601 wells, approximately 350 miles of transportation corridors, 51 miles of pipeline corridors, and related facilities including five compressor stations, seven injection wells, and seven produced water evaporation ponds. These facilities would be developed over an estimated 10-year period. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 6), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative C-1, the security areas protection alternative) would reduce potential impacts to mule deer and elk critical winter habitat. There would be no development on federal surface or mineral estate within important concentration areas of mule deer and elk and no development within security areas located on lands controlled by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. These areas would serve as secure habitat where big game would be protected from disturbance and stress associated with CBM field development and all CBM surface activity would be prohibited. This alternative would require 160-acre well-spacing (four per square mile). There would be an eight percent decrease in the number of wells, and an 8 to 12 percent decrease in the number of miles of transportation corridor compared to the proposed action. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The development of the project would generate up to 193 jobs. There would be substantial net benefit to state and local government from the payment of taxes and royalties. No adverse impacts are expected on the geology of the region. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would result in the disturbance of mule deer and elk on critical and high-value winter ranges and mountain lions would be largely displaced from the project area, except where secure habitat would be provided. The nesting peregrine falcon, loggerhead shrike, burrowing owl and ferruginous hawk could be adversely affected. The project would involve the removal or disturbance of large areas of vegetation and could adversely affect wetland area and functions by filling, excavating, clearing and grading, and draining.

AN - 36408957; 6105 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. Four 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. Key elements would include giving concession operators the option to extend their season further into the fall or earlier in the spring; improving the Spruce Railroad grade for hiking and biking; investigating the feasibility of developing an information and orientation facility on US 101 east of East Beach Road; relocating the store at Fairholm and adding parking; relocating the picnic area away from the shore at Bovee's Meadows; improving the North Shore picnic area; and lakewide zoning to control the locations of personal watercraft and high speed powerboats. Over the next several years and as funding allows, individual site plans for specific areas around the lake would be completed based upon the recommendations in this plan. 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. 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 - 36403888; 6102 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a bridge crossing the American River in the city of Folsom, located in north central California, is proposed. The project would relieve traffic congestion on the Rainbow Bridge, a two-lane bridge over the American River designed to carry traffic from Folsom and surrounding areas to US 50 and Sacramento. The bridge is currently operating at its design capacity. Folsom is located approximately 25 miles east of Sacramento and 25 miles west of Placerville in the eastern portion of Sacramento County. The project area extends from Lake Natoma on the west to Folsom Dam on the northeast. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. The four build alternatives would involve the construction of a bridge with four to six lanes and improvements to access roads and nearby intersections. Alternative 1 would extend across Lake Natoma from Folsom Boulevard near its intersection with Leidesdorff Street to the Folsom-Auburn Road /Greenback Lake intersection. Alternative 2 would extend across the American River from the northern extension of Oak Avenue Parkway to East Natoma Street at Fargo Way. Alternative 3 would cross the American River immediately upstream from the existing Rainbow Bridge and include a connector to the Oak Avenue Parkway extension. Under this proposal, the new bridge would serve both directions of traffic while the Rainbow Bridge would serve southwest-bound traffic. Alternative 4 would cross the American River just below Folsom Dam, with access from Folsom-Auburn Road. The preferred alternative is a variation of Alternative 1 (Subalternative 1b), a 2300-foot-long, four-lane bridge across Lake Notoma; the bridge would be built on pilings on the north side of the river. The estimated project costs are $36.1 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: All of the build alternatives would relieve traffic congestion on the bridge approach roadways and near intersections in the vicinity of the existing bridge, improve traffic circulation through Folsom, and stimulate local businesses. The potential for utility conduits to be added to the proposed bridge structure would decrease the need for additional utility corridors across the American River. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The rights-of-way development would displace up to six residential parcels, two commercial properties, 15 acres of mixed forest, 1.7 acres of riparian woodland, 3.5 acres of jurisdictional wetlands, and 7.4 acres of oak savanna. Alternative 2 and Alternative 3 would decrease the size of the Folsom State Prison security buffer zone. Alternative 4 would result in the loss of a great blue heron rookery. Alternative 1 would result in the loss of a portion of state park (5.1 acres under Subalternative 1b) and disrupt bicycling and other recreational activities. All of the alternatives could disturb the habitat of the valley elderberry longhorn beetle, a threatened species. Construction activity at all sites would result in significant increases in dust particle emissions and internal combustion engine emissions, violating state ambient carbon monoxide standards at 18 to 21 receptors.

Preparation date: October 8, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NEZ PERCE NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK AND BIG HOLE NATIONAL BATTLEFIELD; CLARK, CLEARWATER, IDAHO, LEWIS, AND NEZ PERCE COUNTIES, IDAHO; BEAVERHEAD, BLAINE, AND YELLOWSTONE COUNTIES, MONTANA; WALLOWA COUNTY, OREGON; AND ASOTIN AND OKANOGAN COUNTIES, WASHINGTON. AN - 36408573; 6094 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Nez Perce National Historical Park and the Big Hole National Battlefield, located in Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington, is proposed. The park consists of 38 separate sites spread across Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington. Only five sites are owned by the National Park Service (NPS); the rest will be managed as units of the park through cooperative agreements or other arrangements between the NPS and the landowners. The sites are historically significant in the westward expansion of the U.S., and some sites relate specifically to early Nez Perce culture, the Lewis and Clark expedition through the area, the fur trade, missionaries, gold mining, logging, and the Nez Perce War of 1877. The park contains burial sites and sacred sites and is a focal point for current Nez Perce culture. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), which would accomplish goals and protect resources through partnerships arranged through various types of formal and informal cooperative agreements or memorandums of understanding, are considered in this draft EIS. Although Alternative 2 is the parkwide proposed action, the proposed action for each of the 38 sites varies according to the needs of each site. Alternative 2, the minimum requirements alternative, would retain the general management direction of the park, but appropriate individual management techniques would be applied in certain cases. Alternative 3 would involve more facility development and a greater capital investment to add new visitor facilities or add personnel in some locations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: There would be direct and indirect economic benefits from the federal expenditures for construction and development. Tourism and the concomitant spending by visitors could also increase slightly in the affected towns. Alternative 2 and Alternative 3 would result in increased protection of cultural resources through more staff attention to protection. Visitors would have more opportunities for interpretation to expand knowledge of Nez Perce culture and history in Wallowa Valley. All three of the alternatives would cause few or no impacts on natural resources at most sites. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: No unavoidable adverse impacts would be expected to result from the proposed action. In a practical sense, financial resources committed to implementing the actions would be irreversible. Existing facilities and developments commit the use of land precluding other uses such as wildlife habitat for some species. These commitments are reversible, given an active restoration program in the future. Vegetation and habitat values would return with time; however, they could be different than those that existed under natural conditions. The move of visitor facilities to new locations could disturb buried cultural resources. Planned trails would cause the loss of a small amount of riparian habitat with some soil that supports grasses and the use of trails would somewhat disturb waterfowl that use the area.

Preparation date: October 4, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - STANDARDS FOR RANGELAND HEALTH AND GUIDELINES FOR LIVESTOCK GRAZING MANAGEMENT ON BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT-ADMINISTERED LANDS, MONTANA, NORTH DAKOTA, AND SOUTH DAKOTA. AN - 36401708; 6097 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). Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would incorporate the revised guidelines in nine BLM land use plans covering 8.3 millions 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. The proposed standards 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 specify management practices or methods for meeting the standards. Guideline areas 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 900 allotments affected by the proposed action, 180 would experience a reduction in livestock use and 15 would experience an increase. Roughly two-thirds of the allotments would experience range improvements or vegetative treatments. Under the preferred alternative, regional standards and guidelines would be incorporated into affected land use plans. Under Alternative 3, the fallback standards and guidelines defined in the BLM's grazing regulations would be implemented. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed plan, implementation would accelerate the improvement of vegetative cover and wildlife habitat on public rangelands. Overall, about 1,700 miles of riparian areas currently at-risk and 650 miles of non-functioning riparian areas would be improved. Hydrologic function of riparian areas and water quality would improve. The proposed action would also provide improved safeguards to ensure that the rangeland provides viable ecosystems for livestock and wildlife. The more precise guidelines would allow the appraisal of whether or not a particular area were a healthy ecosystem. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some economic hardship would be experienced by ranchers, particularly in Montana, where grazing would be reduced by approximately 28,000 animal unit months. Livestock permit-holders would likely have to decrease herd size in order to satisfy the new standards. Conservationists estimate that stocking levels would be reduced by up to 65 percent. The grazing restrictions would result in an income loss of up to $787,000 for Montana ranchers and a loss of 32 jobs.

Preparation date: October 4, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - MORENCI LAND EXCHANGE; COCHISE, GRAHAM, GREENLEE, AND PIMA COUNTIES, ARIZONA. AN - 36408759; 6090 AB - PURPOSE: The exchange by Phelps Dodge Corporation, a mining company, of approximately 1,200 acres of private land (offered lands) in four parcels in Cochise, Graham, Greenlee, and Pima counties, Arizona, for approximately 3,758 acres of public lands (selected lands) adjacent to their Morenci Mine in Greenlee County, is proposed. Mining-related uses of the public lands can and are likely to occur, as allowed under the Mining Act of 1872 and the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, whether or not the land exchange were completed. These uses would adversely affect vegetation, wildlife habitat, surface water resources, mineral resources, access to and through public lands, recreation on public lands, and BLM grazing income and grazing allotments; some socioeconomic resources would benefit from such foreseeable uses. Under the proposed action, implementation would result in a net gain of hydroriparian habitats and a net loss of upland habitats within the district; the provision of public access to wilderness areas and other special management areas; the improved manageability of public lands within the Safford District; the loss of BLM authority over mining activities on the selected lands; and a wider private property tax base in Greenlee County. Phelps Dodge would use a portion of the selected lands to support and expand current mining-related operations, with the remainder of the site used for security and environmental buffers. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Also under consideration is the Equal Appraised Value (EAV) Alternative (the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM's) preferred alternative for the Morenci Land Exchange), which was developed in order to address the 25 percent disparity in the monetary value of the selected and offered land packages. This alternative would remove all or portions of the 240-acre Clyne property from the offered land package in order to equalize the value of the lands to be exchanged. The No Action Alternative would include increased BLM administrative responsibilities in order to oversee mining use, regulatory compliance, and reclamation on public lands within the district; and the loss of the opportunity to acquire desirable lands within three long-term management areas and dispose of federal lands that are difficult to manage. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The acquisition of the offered lands by the Bureau of Land Management would result in greater levels of protection for several species listed as threatened or endangered. 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 three grazing allotments and to cultural resources associated with selected lands.

AN - 36412319; 6216 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 is proposed. The national park is composed of three widely separated units on the islands of Tutuila, Ta'u, and Ofu in the Territory of America Samoa. 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 between villages of Fagasa on the west and Afono on the east. The Ta'u unit, located about 60 miles east of the island of Tutuila, 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 the island with its northern boundary high in the summit area of the cloud forest. Ofu island is about 10 miles northwest of Ta'u and has the smallest park unit with about 70 acres of land and about 350 acres of offshore waters. The Ofu unit park 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 draft 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 /park headquarters in the Pago Pago Harbor area and a new 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 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 $9.8 million. An additional $450,000 would be needed to rehabilitate and convert existing facilities for visitor use. An additional $780,000 would be needed 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.

Preparation date: December 23, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SAINT CROIX ISLAND INTERNATIONAL HISTORIC SITE, CALAIS, WASHINGTON COUNTY, MAINE. AN - 36400057; 6086 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for Saint Croix Island International Historic Site, located in Calais, Maine, along the boundary between the United States and Canada, is proposed. In 1604, Pierre Dugua Sieur de Mons, accompanied by 78 others, established a settlement on Saint Crois Island. Preceding Jamestown and Plymouth, Sieur de Mons' outpost was one of the earliest European settlements in North America and the first attempt by the French at year-round colonization in the territory. Although the settlement was short-lived, it formed the foundation for an enduring French presence in North America. In recognition of its important historical significance to both the U.S. and Canada, Saint Croix Island is the only international historic site designated in the U.S. Park System. It contains a 6.5-acre island in the Saint Croix River estuary and two mainland parcels overlooking the island. Total federal ownership is 22.2 acres. The National Park Service (NPS) proposes to protect site resources and improve visitor services. A property adjacent to the existing NPS mainland shore parcel, which lies within the IHS boundary, would be acquired on a willing-seller/willing-buyer basis, and the existing house would be enlarged to meet the needs of a public facility. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 3), provides comprehensive visitor services and programs by developing an indoor contact station on the mainland. The contact station would be developed in the tract 01-105 house directly adjacent to the existing NPS mainland short parcel. This house, which lies within the IHS boundary, is strategically located at the gateway to the site. With a controlled environment for displays and exhibits, the contact station would offer more opportunities for visitor services and feature a wider range of interpretive media than allowed by outdoor exhibits. The contact station and its facilities would be fully accessible to all visitors. Development on the mainland would include a new, unpaved parking area near the current entrance, and a landscaped service area with picnic tables and play structures in a scenic and accessible location. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the integrity of the settings of National Register properties on the mainland would be preserved. Wildlife, indigenous vegetation, soils, water quality and air quality would receive protection. Higher visitation could be expected to increase demand on local businesses for food, lodging and related tourist services. NPS staffing would increase, with a year-round site manager and two seasonal rangers. Site interpretation would attain all management objectives, including restoration of the integrity of the site of the 1604-05 French habitation through removal of structures associated with St. Croix River Light Station. Artifacts from the St. Croix archeological collections would be displayed in the most appropriate location consistent with their protection. The quality of the visitor experience would be maximized for visitors of varied background, age, nationality, and ability. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The construction of an interpretive trail, parking area, and welcome area on the mainland shore parcel in Phase I would pose a temporary risk of increased erosion and sedimentation. The acquisition and conversion of the house on tract 01-105 to a visitor contact station in Phase II would temporarily increase the danger of sound, air, and water pollution during the construction phase. A potentially controversial provision of Alternative 3 would be the removal of the last ancillary structures associated with St. Croix River Light Station--the boat house and oil house. The oil shed is a generic type, but the boat house is unusual in design. The dwelling, light, and foghorn building burned in 1976, destroying the light station's integrity. None of the proposed alternatives for Saint Croix Island IHS would make provision for carrying visitors to the island by boat. Those who reach the island would continue to do so on their own.

AN - 36403416; 6053 AB - PURPOSE: The authorization for the Bureau of Land Management to lease Forest Service lands for oil and gas exploration within the Targhee National Forest in Idaho and Wyoming is proposed. The study area encompasses approximately 1.1 million acres in six eastern Idaho counties and one Wyoming county. Issues identified in the scoping process include the effects of drill pads, access roads, and pipelines on water quality, along with the effects of oil and gas activities on wildlife and the protection of old-growth areas, soils, and roadless areas. Five alternatives are considered in this draft EIS including the No Lease Alternative (Alternative 1, a No Action Alternative), the Current Forest Plan (Alternative 2), two modified versions of the forest plan (Alternative 3 and Alternative 4), and the Standard Lease Alternative (Alternative 5), which would allow leasing without stipulations. Under all of the action alternatives, exploration and development activities would occur between 1995 and 2010. Exploration would consist of geophysical investigations and the drilling up to ten exploratory wells, primarily in the southern part of the analysis area near the Palisades Reservoir. Each exploratory well would require a four-acre well pad and an access roads with an average length of six miles. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 3), most of the analysis area would be available for leasing including 44 percent with a no-surface-occupancy stipulation and 51 percent with a controlled surface use stipulation, timing limitation, or a combination of those two. Exploration and development activities would be restricted to the low to moderate potential areas. The high-potential areas are located in roadless areas with steep slopes, and access to such areas would be restricted under this alternative. Only three exploratory wells would be drilled under this alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Federal, state, and county revenues would increase slightly. The preferred alternative protects wilderness areas where oil and gas development would alter the roadless character and adversely affect water quality. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The exploration and development would result in a total surface disturbance of 433 acres over the next 10 to 15 years.

AN - 36398236; 6057 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, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative would involve constructing a new facility on a 28-acre undeveloped site at Auke Cape; the site has been transferred from the U.S. Coast Guard to NMFS. Access to the site would be provided by developing the existing National Park Service Road and Otter Way through the Indian Cove community. The proposed 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 proposed project would adversely affect homes located along the National Park Service road. Increased traffic along the road would increase noise levels and alter the community character.

AN - 36403633; 6050 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for Carlsbad Caverns National Park in southeastern New Mexico, is proposed. The plan would put forth the basic management philosophy and provide the strategies for addressing issues and achieving management objectives over the next 10 to 15 years. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), under which the existing management direction would be continued, are considered in this final EIS. Additionally, the park would provide for visitor use and respond to resource management issues and concerns as funding allowed, but no major change in management direction would be initiated. Under the proposed plan (Alternative 2), resource management and visitor use decisions would be based on scientific research, inventory, and monitoring. Development and resource protection plans would be based on collected data showing the impact of human activities and facilities on the cavern and other park resources. Opportunities for visitors to enjoy and learn about park resources would be increased, special off-trail tours would continue, the opening of Ogle Cave to tours would be studied, and additional surface trails would be provided. The visitor center would be remodeled to be more efficient, and a ranger residence would be provided near Slaughter Canyon. Alternative 3 would remove many surface functions and facilities above the cavern within five years in order to ensure the protection of subsurface resources. To replace these functions, a new visitor orientation and transit center and a National Park Service operations center would be developed at the base of the escarpment. Visitor use of the cavern would be monitored and restricted to minimize further damage to cavern resources, and no special off-trail tours would be offered. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Alternative 2 and Alternative 3 would better protect the park's resources than the No Action Alternative. Alternative 2 would increase visitor opportunities and provide more in-depth interpretation, while Alternative 3 would limit opportunities but improve interpretation. Alternative 2 and Alternative 3 would both have beneficial long-term socioeconomic impacts. The risk of an accident that could close the cave to public entry, adversely affecting the local tourist industry, would be reduced under Alternative 3. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, facility and trail development would result in minor disturbance to soils and vegetation. Under the action alternatives, some 1.3 acres of vegetation and wildlife habitat would be destroyed. Because the proposed action would defer some resource protection actions in order to establish a scientific basis for decision-making, some potential resource threats that would be eliminated under Alternative 3 would remain over the short term under Alternative 2.

AN - 36399779; 6024 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a revised management plan for the Cape Cod National Seashore in Barnstable County, 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, the protection of historic buildings, public access and facilities, and private ownership of some national seashore lands. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), which would continue the management practices outlined in the 1970 plan, are considered in this draft 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, a variation of Alternative 2, would require the National Park Service (NPS) to take a more active role in resource protection. The estimated implementation costs of the proposed action range from $13.8 million to $16.2 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed 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 proposed plan would require additional NPS staff and increases in operational funding.

AN - 36411914; 6038 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation by the Phelps Dodge Mining Company of an open-pit copper mine in Grant County, 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 proposed 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 draft EIS. The proposed action (Alternative 2) would involve the construction, operation, and reclamation of the proposed 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 Deadman Canyon 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 proposed 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.

AN - 36403468; 6008 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan to improve the existing water delivery capability of the State Water Project (SWP) within the Sacramento River and San Joaquin River watershed in northwestern California is proposed. The proposed action is designed to improve water levels and circulation in south Delta channels for local agricultural diversions, improve south Delta hydraulic conditions and to settle outstanding litigation filed by the South Delta Water Agency. The lawsuits charge that dams and water projects operated by the SWP and Central Valley Project diminish the flow of water in the Delta and makes it difficult to meet irrigation needs. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would involve the construction and operation of a new intake structure at the SWP Clifton Court Forebay; channel dredging along 4.9 miles of Old River just north of Clifton Court Forebay; the construction and seasonal operation of a barrier at the head of Old River in spring and fall to improve fishery conditions for salmon migrating along the San Joaquin River; the construction and operation of three flow control structures at Old River, Middle River, and Grant Line Canal, to improve the existing water level and circulation patterns for agricultural users in the south Delta; and increased diversions into Clifton Court Forebay up to a maximum of 20,430 acre-feet (AF) per day on a monthly average basis, resulting in the ability to pump an average of 10,300 cubic feet per second at Banks Pumping Plant. These increased diversions would increase SWP annual average water deliveries by 46,000 AF per year under existing demand conditions and 122,000 AF per year under future demand conditions. The estimated costs of the project are $53.9 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would improve water levels and circulation in south Delta channels for local agricultural diversions and utilize the full pumping capacity at Banks Pumping Plant. Habitat conditions for fall-run chinook salmon in the San Joaquin River would improve. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would result in the loss of habitat from dredging the Old River and facility construction, negative flows in channels leading to the south Delta due to the operation of the barriers, and increased straying, predation, and entrainment losses from SWP pumping during the fall, winter, and early spring. The operation of the barriers could degrade water quality in the region by rerouting saline waters of the San Joaquin River away from the south Delta pumping plants and toward the central Delta.

Preparation date: August 14, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - GEORGE WASHINGTON NATIONAL FOREST LAND AND RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN, VIRGINIA AND WEST VIRGINIA (DRAFT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT OF JANUARY 1993). AN - 36400280; 6007 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 draft 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 as proposed 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 harvesting, 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 - 36408175; 5999 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for the Owyhee Resource Area, encompassing 1.8 million acres of federal, state, and private lands in southwestern Idaho, is proposed. The resource area is bounded on the west by Oregon, on the south by Nevada, on the north by the Snake River, and on the east by Castle Creek, Deep Creek, the Owyhee River, and the Duck Valley Indian Reservation. Most the public lands are contiguous except for a few scattered or isolated parcels. The resource area contains the northern extent of the Owyhee Mountain Range and lies within the Columbia Plateau, an elevated plateau with mountains separated by canyons draining to the Pacific Ocean via the Snake and Columbia Rivers. Focal issues identified during the scoping process and addressed include land acquisition and transfer, designation of special management areas, wild and scenic river eligibility, recreation management, livestock and wild horse management, and vegetation management. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative C), 17 critical environmental concern areas would be designated. Special management measures would be implemented to ensure that wilderness areas remain substantially natural in character and that the 80-mile section of the Oregon Trail within the resource area is protected. Recreational facilities at seven sites would be upgraded, and seven new sites would be constructed. Approximately 163 miles of rivers and streams would be recommended for wild and scenic river designation. Motorized vehicles would be restricted to existing roads and trails. Up to 9,000 acres each year would be treated with natural or prescribed fires. Livestock grazing would be prohibited on 9,665 acres, and restricted on lands below 3,500 feet elevation so that grass cover increases by 15 percent. Forage would be provided to support up to 178 wild horses. Existing wildlife habitat would be maintained and any unsatisfactory habitat would be upgraded. Timber harvesting would be prohibited on 32,600 acres of Douglas fir except where necessary for forest health. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, implementation would update various land planning documents for the resource area, replacing a management plan that is 15 years old and bringing management policy into compliance with recent court decisions and regulations. Habitat of a variety of wildlife and fish would be protected and/or provided. Significant visual, cultural, recreational, and geological resources would be protected or enhanced. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Timber harvesting, mining, grazing, 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. Costs of grazing livestock would increase for area ranchers. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

AN - 36401091; 5996 AB - PURPOSE: The construction, operation, and reclamation by the Homestake Mining Company of an open-pit gold mine in Eureka County, Nevada, is proposed. The project area is located 0.7 miles northwest of Eureka, Nevada in the historic Eureka Mining District, an area known for the production of lead, silver, and gold during the late 1800's. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would include mine development and surface disturbance on a total of 696 acres, most of which is public land administered by the Bureau of Land Management. During the expected 7.5-year life of the project, a total of 60 million tons of waste rock and 8 million tons of ore would be removed from the mine. Most of the waste rock and all of the ore would require drilling and blasting. Several blasts would occur each day. Mine waste would be hauled from the open pit to one of two proposed waste rock dumps and dumped in 50-foot lifts. Other facilities would include a crushing, grinding, and agglomeration facility; heap leaching facilities; and office buildings, parking lots, warehouses, and other ancillary facilities. These project components would interconnected by haul roads, service roads, and the main access road connecting the facility with US 50. Runoff would be directed around the open pit and the general mine site by diversion ditches constructed upgradient of the general mine site. Also under consideration are the East Waste Rock Dump Alternative, the West Waste Rock Dump Alternative, and the Partial Backfilling Alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would result in the employment of an average of 225 workers during the construction period and 121 permanent workers through the life of the operation. The total annual payroll would be $5.2 million. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Geochemical testing indicates that arsenic and aluminum could leach from the alluvium and oxidized limestone; extremely low levels of arsenic could reach groundwater. Of the 696 acres disturbed by mining operations, 88 acres would not be reclaimed following mine closure. Mine operations would result in the loss of habitat for mule deer and the potential loss of habitat for threatened and endangered species: roosting bats, ferruginous hawks, and burrowing owls. The waste rock dump sites would create a visual contrast with the surrounding countryside. The Eureka Historic District, which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places, would be indirectly affected by mining activities. Noise levels would increase slightly for Eureka residents.

Preparation date: August 8, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SANTA ROSA SUBREGIONAL LONG-TERM WASTEWATER PROJECT, SONOMA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36399752; 5993 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a long-term wastewater project for the city of Santa Clara, California, is proposed. The improvements are mandated by the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board. The area is presently served by the Laguna Wastewater Treatment Plant, which provides tertiary treatment to up 18 million gallons per day of wastewater collected from the cities of Santa Rosa, Rohnert Park, Cotati, and Sebastopol, and from the South Park County Sanitation District. A distribution system carries reclaimed water from the Laguna Plant to be used for golf course watering, irrigation, and wetlands management. The system is supported by storage facilities that hold 1,500 million gallons of reclaimed water until it can be reused or discharged. Water that cannot be stored or reused is discharged to the Laguna de Santa Rosa and Santa Rosa Creek, which flows into the Russian River, approximately ten miles north of the Laguna Plant. Discharge is currently limited to one percent of Russian River flow, five percent during emergency conditions. Heavier-than-normal winter rains sometimes force the system to discharge at rates higher than allowable, leaving the system without a reliable, legally sanctioned option. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative 2 would use reclaimed water for agricultural irrigation in areas south and east of Santa Rosa. Alternative 3 would use reclaimed water for agricultural irrigation in areas south and west of the Laguna de Santa Rosa. Alternative 4 would provide for the transmission of reclaimed water to the Geysers, located in the Mayacamas Mountains northeast of Healdsburg, for injection and recharge of the Geysers steamfield, which is currently used as a source for geothermal energy. Alternative 5 would increase the allowable discharge rate to 20 percent of river flow. All of the action alternatives would involve expansion of the headworks pumps at the Laguna Plant. Ten potential storage reservoirs are included in the project alternatives. POSITIVE IMPACTS: To varying degrees, the action alternatives respond to the increases in water use in the area, maximize recycling and reuse, optimize water resource conservation, and satisfy applicable regulatory requirements. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The storage reservoirs and pump stations would result in a loss of farmland and some residences. Service charges for wastewater would probably increase as a result of the project. Pipeline construction would result in habitat losses for sensitive wildlife. Some potential for groundwater contamination would exist as a result of leakage from the reservoir, storage tanks, or pipeline.

Preparation date: August 5, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - LEWIS AND CLARK NATIONAL FOREST; CASCADE, CHOUTEAU, FERGUS, GLACIER, GOLDEN VALLEY, JUDITH BASIN, LEWIS AND CLARK, MEAGHER, PARK, PONDERA, SWEETGRASS, TETON, AND WHEATLAND COUNTIES, MONTANA. AN - 36408495; 5987 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 draft 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 576,705 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. 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. 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, 966,780 acres of forest would be made available for oil and gas leasing as follows: 499,490 acres would be under a CSU stipulation; 20,921 acres would be affected by timing limitations; and 446,368 acres would be available under NSO stipulations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: 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. 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 40 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.

AN - 36410897; 5982 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for the Challis Resource Area, encompassing 792,567 acres of federal lands located in central Idaho, is proposed. Focal issues identified during the scoping process and addressed include rangeland management, habitat protection for anadromous and resident fish, land acquisition and disposal, access to federal lands, and designation of special management areas. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 2) tries to strike a balance between protection of natural values and economic development opportunities. Under this alternative, seven new areas of critical environmental concern, containing nearly 74,000 acres, would be designated; these areas would provide special protection to bighorn sheep, elk winter range and calving habitat, cultural resources, anadromous fish, and fragile soils. Some isolated stands of old-growth forest totaling 980 acres would be permanently withdrawn from timber harvest. The 13 existing mineral material sites would remain available, and restrictions would be placed on collection of mineral materials in known paleontological areas. Forage would be provided to support up to 253 wild horses; livestock grazing levels would be reduced by up to 25 percent. Up to 14 river and stream segments would be recommended for wild and scenic designation. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would consolidate three management plans now in effect for the resource area, and implementation would update various land planning documents for the resource area, integrating them into one comprehensive land use plan while bringing management policy into compliance with recent court decisions and regulations. Habitat of a variety of wildlife and fish would be protected and/or provided. Significant visual, cultural, recreational, and geological resources would be protected or enhanced. The availability and quality of trust resources to satisfy tribal treaty rights. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Mining 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. Costs of grazing livestock would increase for area ranchers. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

AN - 36408409; 5978 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for the Grass Creek Resource Area in north central Wyoming is proposed. The area, which contains 968,000 acres of public land and 1.17 million acres of federal mineral estate, contains many rock formations important to Native Americans and paleontologists. Three key resource management issues have been identified: methods of managing vegetation to protect water quality, soil productivity, and wildlife habitat while allowing for some livestock grazing and off-road vehicle (ORV) uses; the designation of special management areas; and types and levels of public lands use allowed. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed management plan, implementation would emphasize the protection of forest resources, cultural and recreation resources, vegetation, access, and wild horses. Cultural and paleontological resources would be inventoried and protected in order to prevent unintentional damage from authorized activities. Forage would be increased throughout the resource area to support an additional 8,910 animal unit months (AUMs), excluding 2,300 AUMs set aside for wild horses in the Fifteenmile Wild Horse Herd Area. The herd area would be expanded by 16,000 acres through the acquisition of private lands, and opportunities for public viewing of the horses would be provided. Approximately 33,700 acres of public lands that are difficult to manage would be offered for sale. In all, authorized livestock grazing throughout the resource area would decrease by 35 percent. No-surface-occupancy constraints on new oil and gas leasing would apply to 20,200 acres of BLM-administered mineral estate. The land available for commercial timber harvesting would decline by approximately ten percent. The use of prescribed fire on 11,000 acres would improve habitat for elk, moose, and mule deer. ORV use would be allowed on 6,800 acres of public land. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, large tracts of scenic areas would be preserved and protected, and habitat would be protected and/or provided for a variety of wildlife. Visitor use and appreciation of the area would increase. Significant visual, cultural, recreational, and geological resources would be protected or enhanced. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, off-road vehicle use, improved public access to the foothills of the Absaroka Mountains, wildfire suppression, and land sales could adversely affect cultural resources. Additionally, an increase in vandalism could result from increased visitor use. The decline in authorized grazing and new oil and gas leasing would have moderate adverse economic impacts on those industries. Two significant cultural resources would be destroyed as a result of surface disturbance on mining claims. Native American rock art would be disturbed by bentonite exploration in the Frontier Formation. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

AN - 36399976; 5977 AB - PURPOSE: The recognition, development, and management of a National Historic Trail commemorating the 1775-1776 colonizing expedition of Juan Bautista de Anza in southwestern Arizona and southern and coastal California is proposed. The 1,291-mile historic route enters the U.S. on the Arizona border in the city of Nogales, and continues along a generally west by northwest course to the San Francisco Bay area in California. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under a single-theme alternative (Alternative AA), trail commemoration would be limited to sites and segments within federal lands and state parks. Interpretation would be limited to the 1775-1776 trek. Trail uses would be limited to horseback riding and walking. Trail management would be by volunteers and the National Park Service (NPS) would play a minor role. Under a multitheme alternative (Alternative B), the route would be marked as a continuous auto route and multi-use recreational trail, including biking. Interpretation would include two Anza expeditions, the American Indian tribes who allowed them passage, and the environment they encountered. The NPS would actively manage the trail. Facilities supporting auto touring and other activities would be encouraged. Under a broad-outreach alternative (Alternative C), the project would include the features of that under Alternative B and also the theme of layering history from prehistory to the present day, the promotion of public awareness of the trail, and the development of visitor contact facilities. Under the proposed action (Alternative D), the project would combine the promotional aspects of that under Alternative C with the historical focus of that under Alternative B. Predominant land uses along the route in Arizona would include livestock grazing, transportation facilities, irrigated agriculture, and the range of residential, commercial, and industrial uses associated with urban concentrations. Land use in California would be similar, with the addition of several military installations and a small portion of national forest land. The estimated federal share of costs ranges from $64,000 to $350,000. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the project, cultural resources would be identified and protected, and interpretive sites would educate the public about their significance. Under most of the alternatives, the visual character of landscapes would be benefited. Trespassing would possibly be diminished as a result of public education programs knowledge and by having a defined trail. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project could result in the temporary displacement or disturbance of threatened or endangered species at developed sites along the trail route. Increased land use controls could be enacted by local governments in order to protect significant resources along the trail corridor.

AN - 36413208; 5974 AB - PURPOSE: The improvement of roughly 70 miles of Route 54, Route 19, and Route 107 extending from US 61 near Bowling Green and New London on the east to Mark Twain Lake and the Mexico bypass on the west in northeastern Missouri is proposed. The improvements would be in the immediate vicinity of seven communities: Center, Curryville, Farber, Laddonia, Perry, Rush Hill, and Vandalia. Route 54 and Route 19 are principal arterial highways providing important links for interstate service between Missouri, Iowa, and Illinois, and connecting metropolitan areas and tourist attractions throughout Missouri. Both routes are components within the National Highway System, and accident rates on both routes are well above the statewide average. The proposed improvements to these two routes would involve widening the existing two-lane routes to a four-lane, divided highway and bypassing six of the nearby communities. Improvements to Route 107 would involve widening the existing travel lanes and shoulders on local roads such as Route J, Route O, Route D, and Route E and connecting these two-lane improvements to Route 54 and Route 19. Five alternatives, including a No-Build Alternative, which would make no improvements except normal pavement maintenance, spot upgrading, and minor safety improvements, are considered in this draft EIS. Alternative 1 would generally widen Route 54 and Route 19 along their existing alignments. The other build alternatives would construct sections of Route 19 and Route 54 along new alignments. The estimated costs of the proposed improvements range from $248.0 million to $269.0 million, depending on the alternative selected. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The highway improvements would reduce congestion on the existing routes, provide for planned growth and economic development, improve safety, and improve local, regional, and national transportation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way requirements would result in the displacement of up to 47 residences, 3 businesses, 1,816 acres of prime farmland, and 16 acres of wetlands; sever up to 50 farms; cross 65 streams; and adversely affect six historic sites and the habitat of the Indiana bat.

AN - 36404486; 5970 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for Lava Beds National Monument, located in northeastern California, is proposed. The Lava Beds National Monument is located approximately 155 miles northeast of Redding, California, and 50 miles southeast of Klamath Falls, Oregon. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed plan, approximately 120 acres of adjoining public lands at Petroglyph Point would be acquired, but no boundary changes would be made to the main section of the monument. It would also provide for an increase of 38 staff members and facilities changes to provide for long-term resource protection and improvement of visitor use and experience. Changes would include increased patrols in sensitive areas; restoration of native wildlife and vegetation; construction or modification of research, dormitory, administrative, parking, and entrance facilities; and protection of the petroglyphs area from wind erosion and public damage. The estimated capital costs of the proposed action are $3.71 million, while annual operation and maintenance would be approximately $1.2 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Major beneficial impacts would accrue in the area of cultural resource protection and visitor use. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Several properties and structures, some of which are National Register properties or have traditional cultural significance, would require preservation. The added structures would visually disrupt the natural and historic scene, and some vegetation would be removed in development areas, with consequent minor adverse impacts on wildlife.

AN - 36408061; 5966 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), are considered in this draft EIS. 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. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, existing park facilities would be enhanced to display and preserve the historic vessels and park's research materials. 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 be an adverse effect on a national historic landmark.

AN - 36412762; 5951 AB - PURPOSE: The development of a Class III nonhazardous solid waste landfill in an unused open pit mine in the Eagle Mountains in Riverside County, California, is proposed. The site is bounded on the north, west, and southwest by the Eagle Mountains, and on the east and southeast by the Chuckwalla Valley. The southern boundary of Joshua Tree National Park is within 1.5 miles of the site. Roughly half of the 4,654-acre site would be used for waste disposal; the other half would be used for buffer areas and support facilities. The proposed project would also involve the renovation and repopulation of the adjacent Eagle Mountain townsite by Kaiser Eagle Mountain, Inc., on property also owned by Kaiser. The Mine Reclamation Corporation and Kaiser would jointly develop and operate the site. Kaiser currently owns portions of the project site, and the remainder is owned by the federal government and administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Under the proposed action, these federal lands would be conveyed to Kaiser in exchange for lands owned by Kaiser along the Existing Eagle Mountain Railroad. The landfill would be a waste-by-rail facility designed to meet a significant portion of Southern California's long-term municipal solid waste disposal needs. The amount of waste to be accepted at the landfill would incrementally increase over the first 25 years of operation: roughly 4,500 tons per day (tpd) for years 1 to 4; 8,200 tpd for years 5 to 9; 12,100 tpd for years 10 to 14; 16,000 tpd for years 15 to 24; and up to 20,000 tpd for the remaining years of operation. The total capacity of the landfill would be 708 million tons. Most of the waste received at the landfill would be transported by train via the Southern Pacific rail system and an existing 52-mile-long, Kaiser-owned rail line that extends from Ferrum Junction to the Eagle Mountain Mine. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The operation of the landfill would provide for the disposal of nonhazardous solid waste generated in the southern California area in the near and long terms. Under the proposed project, some 250 long-term jobs would be supported; in addition, 162 construction jobs would be generated. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Groundwater would be vulnerable to degradation from waste leachate or seepage. The project would contribute particulate and vehicle emissions to the Southeast Desert and South Coast air basins. The operation of the landfill and use of the rail line could adversely affect populations of desert tortoise, bighorn sheep, as well as the California leaf-nosed bat and the Townsend's big-eared bat, two endangered and threatened species. Some level of health risk would result from the potential exposure of local residents to landfill gas.

AN - 36405292; 5935 AB - PURPOSE: A 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, are considered in this draft EIS. 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. 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. 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 development. A slight incremental increase in air pollution would result from increased travel to work by employees living outside the park area.

AN - 36386459; 5927 AB - PURPOSE: The consolidation and expansion of mining operations at the Twin Creeks Mine in Humboldt County, Nevada, is proposed. The Twin Creeks Mine, which encompasses the former Rabbit Creek Mine and the former Chimney Creek Mine, is located 35 miles northeast of the town of Winnemucca. The Chimney Creek Mine is located on public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management, while the Rabbit Creek Mine is located on private lands owned by Santa Fe Pacific Gold Corporation, the project applicant. Existing mining facilities consist of three open-pit mines, four overburden and interburden storage areas, five heap leaching facilities, two milling and tailing storage facilities, and ancillary facilities. Gold reserves are known to exist adjacent to the pit areas, and the proposed consolidation would allow the applicant to extract the ore in a economically efficient manner. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would involve the consolidation of the Rabbit Creek Mine and Chimney Creek Mine; the expansion of the South Pit to 15,000 feet by 6,000 feet; the development of additional overburden and interburden storage areas; the development of additional milling, flotation, and tailings facilities; the development of additional heap leaching and processing facilities; the expansion of the existing dewatering system and water disposal facilities; the diversion of Rabbit Creek and tributaries around the mining and processing areas; and the relocation of the county road. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Consolidation of mining operations would enable the applicant to store overburden and interburden in the most economical location; process ore at either of the two existing mills; and use available equipment and facilities from either mining operation as necessary. The proposed action would provide a steady stream of revenue to Humboldt County and the state of Nevada through the year 2011. The construction work force would total 300 people, and the mining work force would be maintained at its current level of 970. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed expansion would result in the disturbance of an additional 5,217 acres and would require the disposal of 131.5 million tons of tailings, 1,731.8 million tons of overburden and interburden; and 135.0 million tons of spent heap leach material. Ground subsidence related to dewatering would extend up to 1.4 miles from the pit. The drawdown would adversely affect some perennial streams and springs, including the Little Humboldt River and the Hot Springs area. Vegetation, livestock grazing, and wildlife habitat would be adversely affected within the disturbed area.

Preparation date: June 27, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WHITE RIVER RESOURCE AREA, CRAIG DISTRICT; GARFIELD, MOFFAT, AND RIO BLANCO COUNTIES, COLORADO. AN - 36399839; 5926 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for the White River Resource Area, encompassing 2.7 million acres of federal, state, and private lands in northwest Colorado, is proposed. The resource area encompasses parts of Garfield, Moffat, and Rio Blanco counties and three incorporated towns (Dinosaur, Meeker, and Rangely). Focal issues identified during the scoping process and addressed include land acquisition and disposal, access to federal lands, designation of special management areas, wild and scenic river eligibility, black-footed ferret reintroduction for prairie dog control, wild horse management, and oil and gas leasing and development. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, were considered in the draft EIS of October 1994. The proposed management plan is a refinement of Alternative D as presented in the draft EIS. Implementation of the plan would involve the designation of 27,600 acres of woodlands for harvesting; 90,380 acres as critical environmental concern area; 143,083 acres as no-surface-occupancy area for oil and gas leasing, with 725,339 acres as controlled-surface-use area and 912,455 acres as timing-limitation area. Motorized vehicles would be restricted to existing roads and trails. Forage would be provided to support up to 140 wild horses; livestock grazing levels would be maintained at present levels for the short term. Three wilderness areas would be established, but no rivers or streams would be recommended for wild and scenic designation. Special management measures would be implemented for restoration of ferret population and the protection of Colorado River cutthroat trout, bald eagles, ferruginous hawk, northern goshawk, raptor, and grouse habitat. 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 plan, implementation would update various land planning documents for the resource area, integrating them into one comprehensive land use plan while bringing management policy into compliance with recent court decisions and regulations. Habitat of a variety of wildlife and fish would be protected and/or provided. Significant visual, cultural, recreational, and geological resources would be protected or enhanced. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: 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.

Preparation date: June 26, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - APCo 765-kV TRANSMISSION LINE; BLAND, BOTETOURT, CRAIG, GILES, MONTGOMERY, PULASKI, AND ROANOKE COUNTIES, VIRGINIA, AND MERCER, MONROE, SUMMERS, AND WYOMING COUNTIES, WEST VIRGINIA. AN - 36411669; 5914 AB - PURPOSE: The construction by the Appalachian Power Company (APCo) of a 765-kilovolt (765-kV) electric transmission line across 12 miles of federal land within a 200-foot right-of-way as part of a 115-mile-long project, located in central western Virginia and southern West Virginia, is proposed. The transmission line would affect lands under the jurisdiction of the Forest Service (the George Washington and Jefferson national forests), the National Park Service (the Appalachian National Scenic Trail), and the Army Corps of Engineers (the New River and R.D. Bailey Lake Flowage Easement Land). help meet the anticipated demand for electric power in the region and increase system reliability. Issues of concern include the effects on water resources, cultural resources, human health and safety, air quality and noise, recreation (trails and trail users), other recreation, social and economic resources, land use and land use plans, aesthetic and visual resources, plant and animal resources, and geology, soils, and minerals. Fourteen alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 14, the preferred alternative of the Forest Service and the National Park Service; the Army Corps of Engineers has not identified an agency preferred alternative), are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative 1), a transmission line would extend from APCo's Wyoming Substation in Oceana, West Virginia, to the Cloverdale Substation in Cloverdale, Virginia. The project would include a 200-foot right-of-way for the construction of self-supporting and guyed-V lattice transmission line towers averaging 132 feet in height and 132 feet in width, spaced at approximately 0.25-mile intervals. Federal lands traversed would include a distance of approximately 2,100 feet at the New River approximately 4.4 miles north of the West Virginia/Virginia state line, which is administered by the Army Corps of Engineers and is currently under study by the National Park Service for possible addition to the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. Also, the Guyandotte River would be crossed about one mile west of Benton, West Virginia, where the Army Corps of Engineers maintains river flowage easements. The route would also cross about 12 miles of the George Washington and Jefferson national forests, entering near Peters Mountain about 1.9 miles southeast of Zenith, West Virginia, running southeast to cross the Forest Service/National Park Service-administered Appalachian National Scenic Trail about one mile north of Virginia Route 621, and finally exiting the national forest southeast of Brush Mountain, approximately 12 miles northwest of Salem, Virginia. This corridor would also include a small area of National Park Service land near Tinker Mountain, which could be avoided with proper siting within the corridor. The other eleven route alternatives would vary in length from approximately 113 to 126 miles. One corridor which would entirely avoid Forest Service land was not evaluated. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Increased availability of electric power to APCo's service area would increase reliability and reduce outages and voltage drops, and could stimulate growth in the area, increasing employment, local expenditures, and increased tax revenues. Project construction would create 35 jobs on average, with a peak requirement of 100, increasing area construction-related income by $90.1 million. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Irretrievable incompatibility with sensitive land uses and features would occur, such as the New River, the Appalachian Trail, and residences. The visual effects of the action alternatives would be high, adverse, and long-lasting, especially in such recreational areas as the Appalachian Trail, the New River, and various parks, mountains, lookouts, and highways. The National Park Service has determined that the adverse visual impacts of crossing the New River within the Wild and Scenic study area would be unacceptable. Also, the proposed action would not comply with the Jefferson National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan, particularly as it would apply to visual resources. The action alternatives would adversely affect wildlife habitat, recreation, karst terrain, noise levels, soils resource, water resources, and vegetation. It could also adversely affect wetlands and floodplains, aquatic biological resources, land use, social and economic values, archaeological resources, cultural attachment, human health and safety, and federal and state proposed, endangered, threatened, and sensitive species and state heritage list species.

Preparation date: June 20, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - REVISED LAND AND RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR THE NATIONAL FORESTS AND GRASSLANDS; ANGELINA, FANNIN, HOUSTON, JASPER, MONTAGUE, MONTGOMERY, NACOGDOCHES, NEWTON, SABINE, SAN AUGUSTINE, SAN JACINTO, SHELBY, TRINITY, WALKER, AND WISE COUNTIES, TEXAS. AN - 36410806; 5908 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of a resource management strategy for the national forests and grasslands in Texas is proposed. The planning area consists of the Angelina, Davey Crockett, Sabine, and Sam Houston national forests in east Texas, and the Caddo and Lyndon B. Johnson national grasslands in north central Texas. The national forest land comprises 637,000 acres in 12 counties; the national grassland land comprises 38,100 acres in three counties. The current management plan for the area was approved in 1987; in June 1988, the East Texas Federal District Court issued an injunction enjoining the Forest Service from failing to implement appropriate protective measures for the endangered red-cockaded woodpecker (RCW). Implementation of these protective measures was the major reason for the revisions to the 1987 management plan, resulting in the issuance of a draft EIS and draft plan in September 1994 for public comment. Issues of concern include vegetation manipulation (the use of prescribed burning, even-aged, two-aged, and uneven-aged management, chemical use, and pine-hardwood management) and the effects on biodiversity, special management areas, off-road vehicle (ORV) use, the RCW, integrated pest management, roads and trails (access needs, maintenance needs, closures, and roadside or trailside management), community stability, recreation, resource sustainability, the mix of goods and services, planning, minerals, and lands. Ten alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this final EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 8), developed after issuance of the September 1994 draft EIS in response to public comments, would place moderate emphasis on establishing RCW habitat management areas; moderate to high emphasis on the restoration of pine and related ecosystems, and on commodity production (including sustained timber harvests and minerals leases); and some emphasis on developed recreation and wildlife. Special management and restoration of longleaf pine ecosystems would occur in the 32,300-acre Longleaf Ridge area. Unique plant communities would be protected with a 27-site, 4,500-acre Texas Natural Heritage designation. The RCW habitat management strategy would be altered to minimize the economic effects on local communities and timber harvest activities. The Winters Bayou would be added as a candidate for a wild and scenic river designation. ORV travel would be allowed on designated trails in the Sam Houston National Forest and the Longleaf Ridge area of the Angelina Forest; all other forest areas would have open ORV use. All grassland areas would be closed to ORV travel. All grassland areas would be managed recognizing the needs of urban users. Non-native pastures would be replaced with native little bluestem, Indiangrass, and switchgrass prairie. The allowable sale quantity of timber would be increased to 113.4 million board feet, in part to address concerns put forward in U.S. Senate Resolution 285 to attempt to reduce the effects of forest plan decisions on local economies. Approximately 399,394 acres would be made available for minerals leases, with 58,871 acres with a no-surface-occupancy stipulation. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The total acres managed for RCW habitat would be increased from 176,594 under current court orders to approximately 282,247 acres under the preferred alternative, and RCW populations would expand to recovery levels. Longleaf woodlands and shortleaf pine-oak communities would be restored, and beneficial effects would be expected on games species and on the 12 threatened and endangered species evaluated. Employment would increase by 201 jobs and total income by $4.271 million, primarily due to increased timber harvesting and recreational activity. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The overall pest and southern pine beetle hazard would increase in the habitat management areas due to the increase in the number of older trees, and stream fisheries, aquatic species, and water quality could be temporarily effected by erosion and siltation from soil disturbances resulting from road reconstruction and intensive forest management practices.

AN - 36400474; 5898 AB - PURPOSE: The restoration of chinook salmon to the Clearwater River Subbasin in north-central Idaho is proposed. The Clearwater River is a tributary to the Snake River, which empties into the Columbia River. Hydroelectric and flood control dams built in 1910 and 1927 eliminated most the Clearwater River salmon, but those two dams were removed in the 1960s and 1970s, making most of the Clearwater a free-flowing stream once again. Issues identified during the scoping process include the possibility that the project would fail if mainstem Columbia River juvenile and adult passage problems are not solved; genetic risks to fish listed an endangered or threatened; potential impacts to wild and resident fish stocks because of increased competition for food and space; and water quality. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the proposed action, the Nez Perce Tribe would build and operate two central incubation and rearing hatcheries and six satellite facilities. Spring, summer, and fall chinook salmon would be reared and acclimated to different areas in the Subbasin and released at the hatchery and satellite sites or in other watercourses throughout the Subbasin. The supplementation program differs from other hatchery programs because the fish would be released at different sizes and would return to reproduce naturally in the areas where they are released. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would help to reverse the historic decline of anadromous fish in the Columbia River basin. A century ago, 16 million salmon and steelhead returned from the sea to spawn in the river basin; now fewer than 2.5 million return each year. The proposed action would establish a self-sustaining chinook population within two to five generations. The proposed action would benefit the local economy, increasing employment and the number of anglers seeking fishing and other recreation opportunities in the area. As manager of hatchery facilities, the Nez Perce Tribe would have a direct influence on fish runs returning to their homelands. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Impacts of fish releases on the existing Clearwater subbasin fish populations would include genetic risks, food and habitat competition, predation, and disease transmission from hatchery fish to wild stocks.

AN - 36399546; 5894 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 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 /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 draft 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 new 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 $21 million. 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 might 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 53.2 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 affected by construction activities.

Preparation date: June 12, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - MOXA ARCH AREA NATURAL GAS DEVELOPMENT EXPANSION PROJECT; LINCOLN, SWEETWATER, AND UINTA COUNTIES, WYOMING. AN - 36386301; 5896 AB - PURPOSE: The drilling of additional natural gas wells on existing lease operations in Lincoln, Sweetwater, and Uinta counties in southeastern Wyoming, is proposed by the Moxa Arch operators, which include Amoco Production Company, Bannon Energy, Marathon Oil Company, Presidio Exploration, Union Pacific Resources Company, Wexpro/Celsius Energy Company, and other companies. The Moxa Arch Field is located in an area of checkerboard patterns of private and public land ownership. The applicants currently operate 957 wells in the area. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action, the applicants would be allowed to develop 1,325 new well sites in the next ten years: 610 well sites within the proven production area and 715 sites within the flank area, where production exists but reserves are not proven. The wells would be drilled to a depth of 11,300 feet to 12,300 feet. Water for drilling and service trailer use would be obtained from wells and nearby rivers; up to 420,000 gallons would be required per well. The new wells would, in turn, require the construction of 1,458 miles of pipeline and 795 miles of access road. The pipeline would be three or four inches in diameter and used in order to connect the new wells to the existing pipeline system. Approximately, 3,000 gallons of water would be used to test each new pipeline segment. A reduced-level development scenario is also under consideration. 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; the draft EIS has been reissued as a companion document. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would allow access to reserves in the reservoir rock. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, a total of 20,293 acres would be adversely affected including 8,838 acres from pipeline construction, 4,823 acres from road construction, and 6,625 acres from well site development. This disturbance would involve the loss of topsoil, vegetation, livestock forage, and wildlife habitat.

Preparation date: June 12, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SAINT-GAUDENS NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE, SULLIVAN COUNTY, NEW HAMPSHIRE. AN - 36407945; 5889 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Saint-Gaudens National Historical Park in the town of Cornish, New Hampshire, is proposed. The site was established as an official historic site in 1964 in order to preserve and interpret property associated with the life and cultural achievements of the American sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens (1848-1907). The site served as his summer residence for 12 years and his permanent residence for seven years. Aspet, the sculptor's home, was once an old inn along the stagecoach road between Windsor, Vermont, and Meriden, New Hampshire. Issues identified during the scoping process include methods of accommodating visitation increases; the preservation of Aspet as well as numerous artworks located inside the house and throughout the grounds; and boundary expansion in order to preserve the historic visual character of the site. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this final EIS. Under all of the alternatives, implementation would include the continued preservation of Aspet, Little Studio, the new gallery, the picture gallery, the ravine studio, the stable, and Blow-Me-Down Mill; climate control and fire prevention systems would be installed in all studios and galleries. Two outdoor memorials would be moved or modified in order to reduce environmental stress on the sculpture. Under the proposed action (Alternative 4), management actions would occur in two phases. In phase one, a new exhibition facility would be developed on the eastern border of the site, all maintenance facilities would be removed from the site, and new facilities as well as a visitor contact station would be constructed outside the grounds in the area south of Saint-Gaudens Road. In phase two, the MacLeay and Heim tracts would be acquired to provide a visitor center/museum, administrative headquarters, and security staff housing. Two additional tracts (Bulkeley and Brown) would also be acquired in order to buffer possible development on the site's periphery. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the historic and artistic resources of the site would be protected and preserved as much as possible, and visitor experience would be enhanced. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction would result in the loss of 1.4 acres of forested land. Congestion on Saint-Gaudens Road would increase when shuttle buses were not in operation.

Preparation date: June 7, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - KLONDIKE GOLD RUSH NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK, SKAGWAY, ALASKA, AND SEATTLE, WASHINGTON. AN - 36403133; 5884 AB - PURPOSE: The revision of a management plan for the four units of Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park in or near Skagway, Alaska, and Seattle, Washington, is proposed. The Alaska portion consists of three separate but related units: Skagway and the historic district; the Chilkoot Trail, including the old townsite of Dyea; and the White Pass Trail and city area. The Seattle unit consists of a visitor center in the Pioneer Square Historic District in downtown Seattle. This draft EIS is a collaborative effort between two vastly separated support offices and two park locations. The proposed action in Alaska would include development concept plans for Dyea and the Chilkoot Trail, and expand park management, development, resource protection, and maintenance components to meet most, but not all, of the expected visitor-use increases and interests in the park. A Klondike History Research Center would be established, in cooperation with the city of Skagway and state of Alaska, to process, study, and store historical, ethnographic, and natural history artifacts. Access to the Dyea area would be improved with a rerouted, wider gravel road, and parking, picnic, interpretive, and trail opportunities. Selected town streets would be cleared and signed. Archaeological inventory, surveys, and mapping; marking the historical segments; minor trail rerouting; and interpretive programs would occur along the Chilkoot Trail and along White Pass. In Seattle, the proposed action would lead eventually to acquiring a permanent location for the park visitor center, park offices, and historic collections. In the interim, expanded lease space at the present location would allow the exhibit area to expand and provide additional information on the role of the Pacific Northwest in the gold rush. Additional interpretive information (exhibits and walking tours) would be developed within the Pioneer Square area. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, implementation would enhance visitor understanding of the Alaskan Gold Rush and the historic significance of specific trails and sites. Park visitation would increase, and the resulting increase in tourism would benefit the local economy. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Facility relocation and development would result in the loss of six acres of vegetation in the Dyea area. Some slight reduction in visual quality would occur at campgrounds along the Chilkoot Trail.

AN - 36386967; 6034 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 new 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. The percolation basins would be located downstream of potable water wells. The proposed action is the only reasonable alternative that was found to comply with the cease and desist orders requirements. It is the only alternative considered in this draft 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 affect 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).

Summary AN - 16529171; 4256002 AB - This summary gives the major points of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) prepared for the Nez Perce Tribal Hatchery by the Nez Perce Tribe (NPT), the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), and other interested parties. The Nez Perce once were one of the largest Plateau tribes in the Northwest and occupied a territory that included north central Idaho, southeastern Washington and northeastern Oregon. Salmon and other migratory fish species are an invaluable food resource and an integral part of the Nez Perce Tribe's culture. Anadromous fish have always made up the bulk of the Nez Perce tribal diet and this dependence on salmon was recognized in the treaties made with the Tribe by the US. The historic economic, social, and religious significance of the fish to the Nez Perce Tribe continues to this day, which makes the decline of fish populations in the Columbia River Basin a substantial detrimental impact to the Nez Perce way of life. The Nez Perce Tribal Hatchery is a supplementation program that would rear and release spring, summer, and fall chinook (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), biologically similar to wild fish, to reproduce in the Clearwater River Subbasin. Program managers propose techniques that are compatible with existing aquatic and riparian ecosystems and would integrate hatchery-produced salmon into the stream and river environments needed to complete their life cycle.

The Clearwater River is a tributary to the Snake River, which empties into the Columbia River. The Nez Perce Tribe would build and operate two central incubation and rearing hatcheries and six satellite facilities. Spring, summer and fall chinook salmon would be reared and acclimated to different areas in the Subbasin and released at the hatchery and satellite sites or in other watercourses throughout the Subbasin. The supplementation program differs from other hatchery programs because the fish would be released at different sizes and would return to reproduce naturally in the areas where they are released. Several environmental issues were identified during scoping: the possibility that the project would fail if mainstem Columbia River juvenile and adult passage problems are not solved; genetic risks to fish listed as endangered or threatened; potential impacts to wild and resident fish stocks because of increase competition for food and space; and water quality. The Proposed Action would affect several important aspects of Nez Perce tribal life, primarily salmon harvest, employment, and fisheries management.

AN - 36404635; 5877 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for approximately 9.3 million acres of public land in the Big Dry Resource Area, located in eastern Montana, is proposed. The resource area extends throughout a 13-county region containing approximately 17.5 million acres, including 1.7 million acres in which the surface is federally owned and 7.6 million acres in which the minerals are federally owned. The plan focuses on two issues: the designation of areas with special values or resources as special management areas, and the accessibility and availability of resources. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), were considered in the final EIS of February 1995. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative D), the plan would seek to take a balanced approach to resource development and conservation in resolving issues involving mineral development, timber management, and livestock grazing. Five cultural sites (144 public surface and mineral acres of Hoe Recreation Area, 1,386 public surface and 1,098 public mineral acres of Powder River Depot Recreation Area, 360 public surface and mineral acres of Big Sheep Mountain Recreation Area, 80 public surface and mineral acres of Seline Recreation Area, and 160 public surface and 120 public mineral acres of Jordan Bison Kill Recreation Area) would be designated as areas of critical environmental concern (ACECs). Under the preferred alternative, oil and gas leasing would be permitted with a no-surface-occupancy (NSO) stipulation and rights-of-way (ROW) construction would be avoided within the ACECs. In addition, the Smoky Butte area would be designated as an ACEC. Four areas containing a total of 48,713 mineral acres would be set aside as paleontological areas, although mineral exploration and leasing with a NSO stipulation could be allowed on those lands. ROW would be avoided in Makoshika State Park, in special wildlife areas, and in special recreation areas (10,148 acres). A 69-acre parcel would be designated as the Calypso Recreation Area. Some 2,858 acres of land would be designated as the Cherry Creek Recreation Area, in which a dam with a 50-foot pool depth would be constructed. A 171-acre area would be designated as the Powder River Depot Recreation Area, in which only oil and gas leasing would be allowed, with a NSO stipulation. Recreational facilities would be provided along the Lewis and Clark Trail. Fallon County would receive 640 acres of public lands for a sanitary landfill. Development of coal would be considered on 580,547 acres containing 6.18 billion tons of coal. Approximately 1.6 million acres would have limited off-road-vehicle use, while vehicles would be allowed without restrictions on 2,320 acres. Special areas would be set aside in order to protect the black-footed ferret (11,166 acres) and the piping plover (16 acres). Approximately 78 acres would be available to oil and gas leasing with a NSO stipulation. Livestock grazing would be excluded in the Calypso, Cherry Creek, and Powder River Depot special recreation management areas and, from May 1 to July 15, in the Piping Plover ACEC. The final EIS had proposed closing the Calypso Trail to motorized vehicles because the high amounts of erosion the trail experiences each year; in response to public protests, this final supplement considers reversing that decision and proposes leaving the trail open to motorized vehicles year round. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Full implementation of the plan would result in both managed use of resources and preservation of the character of the area. The plan would increase the number and type of recreational opportunities available, enhance the protection of fish and wildlife, and increase recreation-related employment and businesses in the local area. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Up to 228 cultural sites have been identified in the acreage set aside for oil and gas leasing, and these areas would require special protection. Four to five additional sites are located in areas set aside for off-road-vehicle use. Over the next 20 years, the gamut of permitted development and recreation activities in the project area would encounter up to 2,092 cultural properties, of which up to 296 properties would be eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Reduced animal unit months for livestock grazing would result in temporary economic hardship for ranchers. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

AN - 36402938; 5868 AB - PURPOSE: The leasing of land for oil and gas development in the Uinta National Forest (NF) and Ashley NF in Wasatch and Duchesne counties, Utah, is proposed. The project area consists of 203,670 acres in the Ashley NF and 197,270 acres in the Uinta NF, including some lands with high and moderate potential for oil and gas occurrence on the south unit of the Duchesne Ranger District of the Ashley NF and the area south and west of Strawberry Reservoir on the Uinta NF. The Leasing Reform Act of 1987 requires the Forest Service to analyze lands under its jurisdiction that are available for leasing. The forest plans for both national forests have no provisions for leasing, but since the passage of the Leasing Reform Act, many companies have applied for or expressed interest in acquiring leases within the Western Uinta Basin. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Under all of the action alternatives, development scenarios would consist of one exploratory well drilled on the Uinta NF; 2 to 5 exploratory wells drilled on the Ashley NF outside of the Sowers Canyon area; and 20 to 30 development wells drilled and produced on leases within the Sowers Canyon area of the Ashley NF. Alternative 5 would be the least restrictive of the five alternatives. Under this alternative all federal minerals within the analysis area would be administratively available for leasing and would be leased under Standard Lease Terms. A preferred alternative has not been selected. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Continued leasing operations would provide accruals to the U.S. Treasury from lease bonus bids and annual lease rentals. Construction and drilling activities would provide temporary employment opportunities for the local work force. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed new fields and associated road construction would disturb up to 157.9 acres and remove sage brush vegetation on which local wildlife depends. Air pollutant emissions from gas-driven field engines and emergency gas flaring could be significant in the area. Soils, vegetation, and wildlife and livestock forage in the immediate drilling areas would be disturbed. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Onshore Oil and Gas Leasing Reform Act of 1987.

AN - 36400395; 5866 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for the Sweet Grass Hills, administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) through the Great Falls Resource Area in Liberty and Toole counties in northern Montana adjacent to the Canadian border, is proposed. The project area includes 7,717 surface acres, 19,765 acres of mineral estate, and 1,644 acres of only oil and gas estate. A 7,500-acre area of critical environmental concern (ACEC) has been designated within the study area. The Sweet Grass Hills have a history of prospecting and mining for gold, silver, iron, and fluorite. Focal issues identified in the scoping process include land tenure adjustment, off-road vehicle use, oil and gas leasing, and minerals development within the ACEC. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative C), implementation would withdraw the Sweet Grass Hills ACEC from mineral entry and focus management efforts on preserving cultural resources and protecting aquifers in the East Butte area that provide potable water to local residents. The mining restrictions would not take effect until after existing leases expire. Of the remaining acres in the study area, some 14,659 acres would remain open to oil and gas leasing under standard stipulations as well as a special raptor stipulation, while all Federal minerals in the study area (19,765 acres) would be withdrawn from locatable mineral entry. The BLM would encourage holders of valid claims to relinquish their claims through purchase, exchange, or through conservation easements with private sources. In addition, the ACEC would be closed to off-road vehicle use year-round. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, implementation would preserve the primitive and natural character of the ACEC. The mining restrictions would eliminate potential adverse impacts on surface and underground water resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The mineral restrictions would adversely affect the local industry; for example, oil and gas revenues would be 2 to 4 percent less under the preferred alternative than under current management. Authorized oil and gas development in the area would disturb 54 acres. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

AN - 36386264; 5864 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a permit to the Summo USA Corporation for the development of a copper mine in the Lower Lisbon Valley in southwestern Utah is proposed. The project area is located 19 miles southeast of La Sal and 40 miles southeast of Moab. The affected environment consists of the valley floor of the Lower Lisbon Valley and gently sloping cuestas and structural benches flanking the valley. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternatives, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would develop four open pit mines to access copper ore, four waste rock disposal areas and crushing facilities, a 266-acre leach pad to process the ore, a processing plant and ponds, a 69-kilovolt powerline from the Hatch substation to the project site, haul roads, and other support facilities. The applicant would commence operation in the first quarter of 1997. Mining would occur at an average rate of 12,500 tons of ore per day over a projected 10-year mine life. Final closure and reclamation would take approximately five additional years. The preferred alternative (the Facility Layout Alternative) would be the same as the proposed action except that Waste Dump D, which would be located directly adjacent to the Lower Lisbon Valley Road, would be eliminated. The waste rock would instead be transported to an enlarged Waste Dump C. In this way, waste disposal activities would be confined to a single large dump north of the Lisbon Valley Road and not be divided into two smaller dumps, thus reducing visual impacts along the Lower Lisbon Valley Road. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The production of copper would provide 143 jobs and $54.5 million in payroll over a ten-year period. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Withdrawal of groundwater at an average rate of 902 gallons per minute for milling and leaching activities would occur by the fifth year of the project, dewatering the shallow aquifer in the immediate area. Project operations would disturb approximately 1,103 acres of land. Birds and other wildlife would be exposed to poor quality water in pit lakes and tailings pools.

AN - 36399599; 5863 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of an energy marketing and management plan for the Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) in the year 2005 in its marketing area in Nevada and northern and central California is proposed. WAPA markets and transmits electricity produced from federally owned and operated hydroelectric plants to a 1.3-million-square-mile area extending from Minnesota to California. WAPA's Sierra Nevada marketing area distributes approximately 1,480 megawatts (MW) of power from the Central Valley Project (CVP), a hydroelectric facility operated by the Bureau of Reclamation. Four alternatives are considered in this draft EIS. The No Action Alternative would involve continuing WAPA's present approach to marketing power within the region, meeting 2005 loads that are comparable to today's load patterns. Within operating constraints, hydropower facilities would operate close to maximum peaking. This approach assumes an average monthly purchase of about 700 MW, 90 percent exceedance, and no contractual interchanges or exchanges. A peaking alternative would involve operating the CVP hydropower facilities to maximize power generation during peak load periods within operating constraints. This approach considers five purchase cases: no power purchases, 450 MW at 15-percent capacity, 450 MW at 85-percent capacity, 900 MW at 15-percent capacity, and 900 MW at 85-percent capacity. The baseload alternative, which considers these same five purchase cases, would involve operating the CVP hydropower facilities for relatively constant power output within operating constraints. The renewables alternative would involve operating the CVP facilities to maximize peak load periods within operating constraints and setting power purchases at 250 MW of capacity either from renewable resource generation or to support renewable resource generation. Generation would be evenly distributed among biomass, wind, solar, and geothermal facilities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Resource planning should ensure that WAPA can meet its contractual obligations to provide for the electric power needs of its customers. The power marketing plan, once finalized and implemented, would promote cost effectiveness, conservation, and reliance on renewable resources. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The baseload alternative would reduce marketable capacity of the CVP and would result in greater emissions during daylight hours when pollution levels are highest. The peaking and the No Action Alternative would create peak and trough fluctuations in reservoir levels.

Preparation date: May 17, 1996 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. AN - 36397419; 5854 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a plan to improve water quality and protect riparian habitat and rare species on Santa Rosa Island 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, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would include a combination of management actions in order to achieve significant improvements in water quality in two pastures and eight of the island's 16 streams. These actions would include closing Old Ranch Pasture to cattle and horses, implementing rotational grazing in North Pasture, constructing a fence along the Smith Highway and in riparian areas in Brockway Pasture, and constructing three water developments. Cattle would continue to have access to other riparian areas. Grazing and browsing pressure on some rare plants and habitats would be reduced by the closure of Old Ranch Pasture, the removal of the island's deer herd, and the reduction of the elk herd from 1,100 to 450 animals. Residual Dry Matter standards would be raised from 400 to 1,000 pounds per acre to protect upland areas, and the weed management program would be increased as funding allows. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would remove some of the effects of overgrazing in order to conserve and restore rare plant and animal species as well as the habitats on which they depend. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: In pastures not targeted for management actions (South, Pocket Field, Lobos, Carrington, and Wire Field) as well as in some areas of targeted pastures, overgrazing would continue to adversely affect riparian areas, water quality, populations of rare species, archaeological sites, and soil.

Preparation date: May 13, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - WESTERN ARMY NATIONAL GUARD AVIATION TRAINING SITE EXPANSION; MARICOPA, PIMA, AND PINAL COUNTIES, ARIZONA. AN - 36402916; 5852 AB - PURPOSE: The expansion of facilities and operations at the Western Army National Guard (ANG) Aviation Training Site at Marana, Arizona, is proposed. The training site became operational in 1986, with the mission of training National Guard aircrews and units assigned to attack helicopters and air cavalry. Currently, 2,237 students are trained at the site annually; the number of trainees is expected to increase to 5,104 students in the near future. The largest increase in student training would occur in flight simulators, academic instruction, maintenance training courses. The three major components of the proposed expansion are the designation of tactical flight training area for conducting flight training operations, the development of a helicopter aerial gunnery range, and the implementation of a master construction plan at the Silver Bell Army Heliport and the Gila Bend Air Force Auxiliary Field. Under the proposed action (Alternative B), the flight training area would be reconfigured in order to provide unit sustainment and electronic warfare training. Instead of developing a new helicopter gunnery range, this alternative would continue use of the East Tactical Range, which would be divided into two air operations areas. Most construction activities would involve modernizing equipment to handle deployment of Apache helicopters. New facilities would include a high-tech training center, fire station, recreational facilities, and warehouse and maintenance facilities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would expand the area dedicated to training and improve overall safety by increasing the distance between training activities. The combat effectiveness of the ANG would be improved by the proposed facility expansion. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Expanded training and new equipment utilization would result in short-term increases in emissions of particulates and other pollutants. Range modernization would result in the increased displacement and mortality of San Joaquin kit fox, adult vernal pool fairy shrimp and their eggs, and western spadefoot toads, and would also disturb other wildlife. Construction activities would expose workers to unexploded ordnance.

AN - 36410518; 5848 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of 15-year management plans for five properties (the Castle Clinton National Monument, the Federal Hall National Memorial, the General Grant National Memorial, the Saint Paul's Church National Historic Site, and the Theodore Roosevelt Birthplace National Historic Site) managed by the National Park Service (NPS), located in the New York, New York, area, is proposed. The Castle Clinton National Monument is a fort built on landfill at the southern tip of Manhattan in the early 19th century. The preferred alternative for this monument (Alternative 3) would involve constructing a roofed structure inside the fort walls while leaving the 1811 walls in place. The new auditorium would be used for performances, exhibits, and other activities. The Federal Hall National Memorial, on Wall Street, commemorates the site of the inauguration of George Washington as the nation's first president and the meeting place of the first U.S. Congress. The preferred alternative for this memorial (Alternative 2) would involve structural repairs and the installation of a visitor information center and the addition of exhibits and other interpretive media. The Saint Paul's Church National Historic Site, in Westchester County, New York, is an 18th-century church that served as a hospital during the American Revolution. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 2) for this site, management of the site would be transferred to the NPS from the Society of the National Shrine of the Bill of Rights at Saint Paul's Church, and efforts to preserve historical materials would be accelerated. The Theodore Roosevelt Birthplace National Historic Site is located in the Gramercy Park area. Under the preferred alternative for this site (Alternative 2), central air conditioning would be installed, the basement-level information area would be rehabilitated, and the library on the third flood would be restored to its 1923 appearance. The General Grant National Memorial is located in Harlem. Under the preferred alternative for this memorial (Alternative 3), a new visitor center would be built in the pavilion across Riverside Drive; the planned construction would require the acquisition of city property. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Visitor interpretation and appreciation of the sites would be enhanced under all preferred alternatives. The proposed development of the Grant visitor center along with the restoration of the Hamilton Grange (examined in a separate EIS) could help stimulate tourism and bring economic benefits to Harlem. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed roofing of the Castle Clinton structure would alter the appearance of the structure and also adversely affect the New York City skyline from some vantage points.

Preparation date: May 8, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SANTA FE PACIFIC GOLD CORPORATION, MULE CANYON MINE, EUREKA AND LANDER COUNTIES, NEVADA. AN - 36397362; 5845 AB - PURPOSE: The development and operation of a new surface gold mine and related facilities in north-central Nevada are proposed. The project area consists of 9,236 acres located 15 miles southeast of Battle Mountain on eastern side of the northern Shoshone Mountains and the western edge of Whirlwind Valleys. The area is characterized by relatively steep, barren mountain slopes and low brush cover. Roughly half of the project area (4,812 acres) is public land managed by the Bureau of Land Management, and the remainder is split estate land and fee land owned or controlled by the applicant. The proposed action would involve the construction of a western access road and the development of five open pits; 14 overburden and interburden disposal areas, including the Main Pit; surface drainage systems; pit dewatering sumps and associated piping and holding ponds; an ore stockpile; a heap leach pad and associated solution tanks; a mill facility; a tailings disposal facility; support facilities; a water supply wellfield and associated storage and distribution systems; and on-site utility installations and roads. Following a 12-month development period, the mine would enter active production, producing 0.5 million to 2.5 million tons of gold ore annually. Over the life of the mine, up to 11 million tons of ore would be recovered and 100 million tons of overburden and interburden would be removed and either placed in permanent disposal areas or backfilled. Alternative disposal areas, mining methods, and project locations are also under consideration in this draft EIS. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The new mine would employ up to 200 full-time workers for the life of the mine and provide associated taxes and revenues. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would disturb 2,688 acres, including 1,312 acres of public land and up to 580 acres outside the project area for access roads and borrow sources. Groundwater levels would be reduced as a result of discharges of up to 110 gallons per minute to mine pit excavations; leaching of excavated materials into groundwater might occur. Loss of wildlife habitat and displacement of wildlife from affected habitat would occur. There would be a loss of grazing potential within direct disturbance areas during the life of the mine. Visual resources would be adversely affected by expansion activities. Roughly 150 cultural resource sites, including 52 which are eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, are located within the area of direct effect for the proposed project.

Preparation date: May 3, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FONTENELLE NATURAL GAS INFILL DRILLING PROJECTS, LINCOLN AND SWEETWATER COUNTIES, WYOMING. AN - 36411507; 5843 AB - PURPOSE: The drilling of additional natural gas wells on two lease operations in Lincoln and Sweetwater counties, Wyoming, is proposed. DALEN Resources Oil and Gas Company proposes to continue to infill drill their existing Fontanelle II unit and adjacent leased acreage (25,323 acres). In addition, Cabot Oil and Gas Corporation, Presidio Oil Company, and several other companies (collectively the Lincoln Road Operators) would infill drill their leased acreage within the Lincoln Road Development area (154,437 acres). The two lease operations, which are immediately adjacent to one another, are located 30 miles northeast of the community of Kemmerer and 70 miles northwest of the community of Rock Springs. Without the drilling of additional wells, a significant amount of reserves would remain trapped in the reservoir rock upon abandonment of the field. Currently, 907 wells are active on both leases. Collectively, the companies would continue infill drilling up to 1,317 additional wells over the next ten years. Because of the tight-gas formation, the wells would be drilled on 160- and 80-acre spacing. In certain areas drilling on 80-acre spacing would increase well density up to eight wells per 640 acres. The preferred alternative selected by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the Resource Protection Alternative, would involve drilling no more 1,228 wells over the next ten years, and all methods of avoiding or minimizing adverse environmental impacts would be implemented. 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; the draft EIS has been reissued as a companion document. POSITIVE IMPACTS: DALEN estimates that infill drilling would increase gas recovery from the area by 222 billion cubic feet of gas, while the Lincoln Road Operators estimate that gas recovery in the area would increase by up to two trillion cubic feet. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the DALEN proposal, as modified by the BLM, adverse construction-related impacts would include the conversion of 252 acres of shrub/brush rangeland to oil and gas production, the disturbance of 770 acres of vegetation including 15 acres in floodplains, and the displacement of up to 59 animal unit months per year. Under the Lincoln Road proposal, as modified by the BLM, adverse construction-related impacts would include the conversion of 6,470 acres of shrub/brush rangeland to oil and gas production, the disturbance of 6,676 acres of vegetation including 111 acres in floodplains, and the displacement of up to 514 animal unit months per year. Under both of the proposals, the project would result in a loss of topsoil in areas where reclamation is poor, increase the potential for sedimentation into the Green River and its tributaries, and disturb range areas for antelope, mule deer, and other wildlife.

AN - 36399410; 5760 AB - PURPOSE: The diversion of waters from the La Plata River and the Animas River for irrigation, municipal, and industrial uses for La Plata and Montezuma counties in southwestern Colorado and San Juan County in northwestern New Mexico is proposed. The project would store water pumped from the Animas River in the Ridges Basin Reservoir, and water pumped from both rivers in the Southern Ute Reservoir. Irrigation water for lands in Colorado would be pumped from the Ridges Basin Reservoir and conveyed through the Dry Side Canal and /or diverted from the La Plata River by means of an existing or a constructed diversion structure. Irrigation water for New Mexico would be stored in the Southern Ute Reservoir, released to the New Mexico irrigation canal, and distributed through a piped lateral system. Water for the Ute Mountain Ute tribe would be available from the Dry Side Canal, and for the Southern Ute Indian tribe from the Southern Ute Reservoir. Municipal and industrial water for Durango, Colorado, would be pumped at the Durango Pumping Plant or released from the Ridges Basin Reservoir, and would be conveyed through the Durango M&I pipeline or, for western subdivisions, through the Shenandoah M&I pipeline. The total project water supply would average 191,230 acre-feet (af) annually. Approximately 111,130 af would be used for irrigating 17,590 acres of land presently being irrigated and 48,310 acres presently being dry-farmed or not under cultivation. Approximately 40,100 af would be made available annually to communities in both states for municipal and industrial uses. An additional 40,100 af would be provided to the Southern Ute Indian tribe, the Ute Mountain Ute tribe, and the Navajo Nation for industrial uses. The proposed project would also provide for fish and wildlife preservation, recreation facilities, and a cultural resources program. This final supplement to the final EIS of 1980 considers changes in the project's environmental effects resulting from changes in design and construction phasing, increases in the type and amount of dredged material to be discharged into U.S. waters, the settlement of Indian water rights claims, and other regulatory developments. In addition, this final supplement presents new or updated information relating to geology, soils, water quality, aquatic resources, Wild and Scenic Rivers Act issues, wildlife habitat, endangered species, wetlands, cultural resources, recreation and tourism, environmental justice, and Indian trust assets. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would provide equitable distribution of water for a variety of uses within the region. Project construction would aid the local economy, generating 4,697 direct jobs and 3,161 indirect jobs. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would result in the permanent loss of 3,750 acres of wildlife habitat, principally elk winter and summer range. Up to 321 acres of wetlands not previously identified could be lost or adversely affected. Up to 223 acres of riverine wetland would be displaced. An additional 96 acres of vegetation would be lost due to design refinements of project facilities. In addition, the area would experience increased salinity in its water supply; a reduction in native fishery in the Animas River; and the disturbance of the entire 7,503-acre Bobo Wildlife Area and the 3,650-acre Hermosa Herd Unit elk habitat. Two endangered species of fish would also be jeopardized by the completion of the project.

AN - 36385972; 5754 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for 50,000 acres of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) public lands within the Clear Creek management area, located in central California, is proposed. Approximately 30,000 acres of this land are within an existing serpentine area of critical environmental concern (ACEC), so designated because of the high concentrations of naturally occurring asbestos occurring in its serpentine soil. The presence of asbestos creates health concerns because vehicles on unpaved roads, trails, and barren slopes generate asbestos fibers, which can be inhaled by visitors. In addition, the management area is host to a unique assemblage of plants, including the San Benito evening primrose, a federally protected species. Because of these issues, a major objective of a management plan for the area is to regulate off-highway vehicle (OHV) use while satisfying the public's recreational demands. Six alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), which would continue the existing management practices, are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 3), natural values and human health would be protected while allowing recreational uses. All vehicle travel would be restricted to a system of designated routes spanning the entire management area. Initially, a network of 155 miles of roads and trails would be available; the goal for the area is 270 miles. The area would be managed under a mostly limited use designation rather than a mostly open designation. Seven hill climb areas would be conditionally open (207 acres), with the remainder conditionally closed pending a thorough review of all barren areas. All available hillclimb play areas would be located in Clear Creek Canyon. In all, 927 acres of barren hillclimbs would be open to OHV use, and 1,392 acres would be closed. The San Benito Mountain Natural Area would be expanded to include other unique sensitive ecological areas. Public vehicle access would be restricted to prevent unnecessary health and safety risks from dry and dusty road conditions. The public would have access to a vehicle washrack and asbestos air concentrations would be posted. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, erosion rates would be reduced by 62 percent over present levels. Increased limitations on OHV use would improve riparian, vernal pool, and terrace habitats, and also their associated plant and animal communities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Although airborne asbestos would be reduced by as much as 50 percent over present levels under the preferred alternative, roughly five persons out of 100,000 who visit the area would run an elevated risk of contracting cancer. Areas in which OHV use is permitted would continue to experience high levels of soil and vegetative disturbance. Proposed restrictions on OHV use would reduce visitor use by 20 percent and local sales revenue by $465,000. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

AN - 36396989; 5745 AB - PURPOSE: The restoration of the native anadromous fisheries and ecosystem of the Elwha River in Clallam County, Washington, is proposed. Much of the 45-mile-long river flows through the Olympic National Park. In the early 1900s, the free-flowing Elwha River was blocked by two hydroelectric dams. In 1912, the Elwha Dam was built 4.9 miles from the mouth of the river, creating Lake Aldwell. In 1926, the Glines Canyon dam was built 8.5 miles further upstream, creating Lake Mills. The presence and operation of the dams blocked the migration path for several species of salmon and trout, which, after maturing in the ocean, return to Elwha to spawn, and the dams prevent the downstream flow of nutrients, sediment, and woody debris needed by the fish to spawn and rear juveniles. The fish were also important to the diet, culture, and economy of a local Indian tribe, the Lower Elwha S'Klallam Tribe. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would involve the retention of the dams, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action (the River Erosion Alternative) would involve fully restoring the river ecosystem and its fisheries by removing both dams over an 18 to 24 month period and implementing fish restoration and revegetation. Elwha Dam would be removed by blasting, and Glines Canyon Dam by a combination of blasting and diamond-wire saw cutting. Lake Aldwell would be drained by a diversion channel, and Lake Mills by notching down Glines Canyon Dam. Stored sediment would be eroded naturally by the Elwha River. The Dredge and Slurry Alternative would involve the use of suction dredges to remove fine-grained sediment prior to dam removal. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would fully restore the Elwha River ecosystem, return the cultural and economic focus of the Lower Elwha S'Klallam Tribe, and promote the federal trust responsibility to affected Indian tribes. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Deactivation of the dams would result in the loss of 18.7 megawatts of hydroelectric power now produced at these two sites. If sediment were allowed to erode naturally, the finer-grained particles, like silt and clay, could adversely affect fish or other aquatic organisms. Flood risks would increase following dam removal.

AN - 36411191; 5731 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance to the Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District (SRP) of a federal coal lease for mining and related activities on 16,813 acres of land near Fence Lake in Catron and Cibola counties, New Mexico, and Apache County, Arizona, is proposed. The project would include two basic elements: the Fence Lake mine and its site facilities, located 14 miles north of the town of Quemado, New Mexico; and a 44-mile-long railroad corridor to be constructed west of the mine and terminating at the Coronado generating station located six miles northeast of St. Johns, Arizona. Under the proposal, SRP would mine a total of 81.3 million tons of coal from the site over the 50-year life of the mine. Approximately 35.6 million tons would be federal coal, and the remaining 45.7 million tons would be state-leased and privately-owned coal. The anticipated coal production through year 28 would be 1.8 million tons per year. The coal would be transported by rail to be used at SRP's existing Coronado generating station. The rail line would carry approximately 100 tons of coal per day. Following the release of the draft EIS of September 1990, additional baseline on the environmental effects of the mine were collected in response to public concerns. This final supplement to the final EIS considers this additional data. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the issuance would allow for maximum economic recovery of the coal resource and excludes certain sensitive areas from leasing in order to protect resources and comply with the Bureau of Land Management's management plans. In addition to the substantial improvement in the long-term provision of energy via coal-generated electric power, the lease activities would provide local employment and county government income. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Approximately 8,432 acres would be disturbed by mining, support facilities, and transportation rights-of-way. Following reclamation, the project area would be adversely affected topographically and geologically. All other adverse impacts, which would include air quality degradation, visual impacts, damage to grassland vegetative communities, and grazing resource losses, would be minor or negligible.

AN - 36398834; 5727 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a water management plan for the Jamestown Reservoir in order to mitigate the impact of reservoir operations on the Arrowwood National Wildlife Refuge in east-central North Dakota is proposed. The refuge, which was established in 1935 as a refuge and breeding ground for migratory birds and other wildlife, comprises 16,000 acres along 16 miles of the James River Valley. The Jamestown Dam is located 20 miles downstream of from the refuge. The dam and its reservoir affect the refuge in several ways. During flood years, high reservoir elevations cause backwater effects that eliminate or severely reduce water management capability at the refuge. Afterwards, water in the reservoir recedes. Excess water often remains in the refuge because of poor pool drainage and channel obstructions below the lowermost refuge pool. During normal years, the difference in the elevations of the reservoir and the refuge pools is too small to allow the refuge pools to be drawn down in a timely manner. The reservoir also supports rough fish such as carp and buffalo that invade the refuge during high water periods. These fish can cause extensive damage to aquatic resources important for migratory and nesting waterfowl. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in the draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative, the reservoir's joint use pool would be lowered by 1.8 feet, and a 2.5-mile-long channel would be built around Jim Lake and a 7.0-mile-long channel would be built around Mud Lake to improve drawdown capabilities. A dike would be constructed at the mouth of Stony Brook Creek, and moist soil subimpoundments would be constructed in Mud Lake and Jim Lake to enhance waterfowl habitat. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would enable refuge managers to transfer water between pools and control water levels within the refuge, protecting habitat during both normal and dry years. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction activities would cause a temporary increase in turbidity in the lakes and waterways.

Preparation date: April 8, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FRASER VALLEY LOOP TRANSMISSION LINE PROJECT, ARAPAHO NATIONAL FOREST AND ROOSEVELT NATIONAL FOREST, GRAND COUNTY, COLORADO. AN - 36407965; 5828 AB - PURPOSE: The construction by Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association of a 22-mile-long, 115-kilovolt (115-kV) transmission line extending from the Fraser substation to the Mill substation in Fraser Valley, Colorado, is proposed. The line would improve the reliability of electrical service to the Fraser Valley region. At present, the Fraser-Windy Gap 138-kV line is the only transmission line service serving the region. An additional line would provide loop service to the area, thereby allowing routine maintenance of the system to occur and reducing the risk of system outages. Since 1981, the existing line has experienced 18 outages, each affecting roughly 6,000 metered customers. Significant issues developed during the scoping process include the need to perform maintenance on the existing line; the visual impacts to a high mountain valley dependent on the tourist industry; the potential lowering of property values in a region experiencing economic growth; threats to sensitive wildlife resources; and potential threats to wetlands occupying the middle of Fraser Valley. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. Under the preferred alternative (the Southern Alternative), the preferred route for the new line would make maximum use of harvested and previously disturbed areas on national forest lands and private property (including the Cyprus AMAX Henderson Mine property). H-frame wood pole or single pole structures would be used for the transmission line, and three-pole wood structures would be used at angle locations. These structures would require a 75- to 100-foot-wide right-of-way. The estimated cost of constructing the new line is $11.0 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The project would improve the reliability of electrical service to the Fraser Valley region by establishing a high-voltage transmission system network (loop service) at the Fraser substation and increase the level of security by eliminating the possibility of a single contingency outage. Two sources of electric power would allow both lines to be maintained in a comprehensive manner, thereby improving the reliability of each line and improving reliability for the customer even further. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction would disturb 26.7 acres of wetlands and 4.2 acres of Class I paleontological resources; visually impact the Church Park dispersed recreation area, an important scenic and recreation area of the national forest; and create the potential for avian collisions with transmission lines and structures.

AN - 36399284; 5825 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 descendents 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 for 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. This draft supplement to the draft EIS Of April 1995 presents 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. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the project would improve the monument's interpretation facilities, thereby enhancing visitors' appreciation of the Sonoran Desert. 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 proposed construction would result in the disturbance or loss of 50 acres of desert flora.

AN - 36399281; 5824 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a management plan for the Cabrillo National Monument in San Diego, California, is proposed. The monument is located on the southern end of Point Loma, a narrow, six-mile-long peninsula at the entrance to San Diego Bay. From its 420-foot elevation, the monument offers a commanding view of San Diego, its bay, and the cities immediately to the north and south. The 144-acre monument is an enclave within the federal military reservation on Point Loma. The monument was established in 1913 to commemorate the European "discovery" of the west coast of the United States by Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo in 1542. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative B), management of natural resources would be enhanced by restoring and preserving coastal sage scrub habitat, increasing staff positions, and minimizing potential impacts of visitors on the tidepool ecosystem. An interpretive facility would be constructed at the lighthouse and the lighthouse landscape improved to better reflect the 1880s period. Access to and interpretation of some historic coastal defense structures would be provided. A marine science facility would be converted to an intertidal interpretive center if the facility were declared to be in excess of the Navy's needs and is transferred to the National Park Service. The whale overlook would be expanded, and the Bayside Trail would be extended in order to form a loop trail that would provide a better impression of native habitat. Estimated development costs are $1.9 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the project, cultural resources would be identified and protected, and interpretive sites would educate the public about their significance. The visual character of landscapes would be benefited. Trespassing could be diminished as a result of public education programs and by access to a trail that provides a view of environmentally sensitive areas. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Trail expansion would temporarily expose 8,400 square feet of soil to erosion and also to invasion by exotic plant species.

AN - 36400862; 5816 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a land and resource management plan for the Green River Resource Area in south-central and southwestern Wyoming is proposed. The area contains 3.5 million acres of land in which the surface and minerals are federally owned, 135,000 acres in which only the surface is federally owned, and 81,000 additional acres in which only the minerals are federally owned (split estate). Focal issues identified during the scoping process and addressed include the protection of vegetation, soils, and watershed values; the suitability of areas for special-management designations; and opportunities for improving accessibility for mining, recreation, cultural-resource activities, and other uses. Four alternatives are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed plan, approximately 152,460 acres of public land would be unavailable for oil and gas leasing; 81,261 acres would be assigned no surface occupancy restrictions; seasonal restrictions would be placed on up to 2.04 million acres of certain big game winter ranges; and 1.25 million acres would be subject to controlled surface use restrictions. Approximately 3.62 trillion cubic feet of gas, 128 million barrels of oil, and 325 million tons of coal would be produced from available lands. Development of trona and other mineral resources would be evaluated on a case-by-case basis; it is estimated that about 16 million tons of trona would be produced annually. Areas for off-road-vehicle (ORV) use would be set aside and provided on a permit basis; 181,930 acres would remain closed to ORV use. Approximately 67,700 acres would be set aside to enhance vegetative diversity and wildlife habitat. Herds of wild horses would be maintained in five management areas. Ten areas of critical environmental concern would be set aside to protect sensitive plants, petroglyphs, and other natural and cultural resources. Livestock grazing would be permitted but would not exceed 318,647 animal unit months. Approximately 7,900 acres would be set aside for timber harvesting, which could average 500,000 board feet per year. Rock art sites, historic trails, and other cultural resources would be managed to maintain their intrinsic values. Some 13,000 acres of public lands would be eligible for disposal. In addition to the proposed plan, three other alternatives are also under consideration. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed plan would provide a balance of recreational and economic uses of public lands. Recreation user days would increase by 60 percent over 20 years. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Because all forested land would be placed in a restricted management category, there would be a 55 percent reduction in timber output. Livestock grazing, mining, and other economic ventures would also be adversely affected by the closure of certain areas.

AN - 36414323; 5808 AB - PURPOSE: The continuation and expansion of Zortman Mining, Inc., (ZMI) mining operations at both the Zortman and Landusky mines, located in Phillips County, Montana, is proposed. On May 11, 1992, ZMI submitted an application to the Lewiston District of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the Montana Department of Environmental Quality to expand mining operations at the mines in Montana's Little Rocky Mountains. Issues identified through public scoping include Native American religious concerns, acid rock drainage, reclamation, and socioeconomics. Seven alternatives, including the company's proposal and a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. The five other agency alternatives would involve various combinations of approval or rejection of mine expansion, acceptance of company reclamation plan, and adoption of one of several agency reclamation strategies. The proposal would include the expansion of existing mine pits to access sulfide ore; a 150-acre, 60-million-ton waste rock disposal area; crushing facilities; a two-and-one-half-mile conveyor system; a 200-acre, 80-million-ton leach pad; a new processing plant and ponds; a limestone quarry; and other associated facilities. Total disturbance would increase from the existing 401 acres to about 1,292 acres. The operation would be located on private and BLM-managed land. The preferred alternative (Alternative 7) would be similar to the company's proposal for both mine expansion and modification of reclamation plans, but with agency mitigation added in order to reduce or avoid adverse impacts. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would correct inadequacies in the existing reclamation plans: it has become apparent that the current approved reclamation plans are not adequate to limit or prevent the development of acid rock drainage from the present mine facilities; and secondly, ZMI wants to develop its property rights. The Zortman and Landusky mines have employed a large number of workers from 1979 through 1994. As this employment is a significant proportion of the regional workforce, continuation of mine operations would prevent adverse socioeconomic impacts. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The mine expansion would develop sulfide ore and waste to an extent not previously contemplated for the Zortman and Landusky mines. Existing and possible additional adverse water quality and aquatic habitat impacts would result from acid rock drainage, as well as from potential leakage of heap leach process solution from storage ponds and other contaminant drainage events. Expansion activities would adversely affect Native American cultural resources and the use of these resources as a result of mine noise, air quality and water resources degradation, and modification of the visual perspective from certain locations of traditional cultural practices and importance. Habitat losses resulting from action alternatives would be 1,257 to 2,431 acres.

AN - 36402733; 5804 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. This draft EIS revises the recommendations made in a June 1993 draft EIS; the revision reflects the recommendations made by task force appoitned by the Secretary of the Interior in 1994. Under the proposed action, as revised, the Park Service would construct a 13,000-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/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 draft 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 150 to 189 acres of vegetation would be lost or disturbed; 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.

AN - 36404580; 5782 AB - PURPOSE: The development of a resource management plan (RMP) to provides a comprehensive framework for managing mineral deposits on federal lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) located in Texas is proposed. The key management issue would involve the leasing and development of federal oil and gas resources in Texas. Three alternatives were considered in the draft EIS of August 1995, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative A), which would include a continuation of present resource allocation levels and management practices; oil and gas leases would continue to be issued with standard lease provisions as well as with surface resource protection stipulations required by executive orders, laws, regulations of practices. The Intensive Surface Protection Alternative (Alternative B, the preferred alternative) would place primary emphasis on protecting important environmental values through the use of additional leasing stipulations. The No Leasing Alternative (Alternative C) would remove federal oil and gas from availability for leasing and development. It would change management direction so that the issue is resolved in a manner that places highest priority on the preservation of the oil and gas resource and protection of associated surface resources. 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. The draft EIS has been reissued as a companion document. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Oil and gas leasing and development could benefit the state's economy. Employment, earnings, and tax impacts would result from development activities. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, leasing and development activities would raise air quality concerns including dust and emissions associated with road and drill pad construction and drilling operations. The creation and release of concentrations of harmful gases (such as hydrogen sulfide) at drill sites could occur. The development of oil and gas resources could adversely affect surface and groundwater through surface erosion, the contamination of streams and aquifers, the production of brine waters, and the introduction of toxic substances into the environment. The construction of access roads, drill pads, and pipelines would result in the removal of vegetation and the loss of wildlife habitat. Cultural and paleontological resources could also be adversely affected. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.).

Preparation date: March 8, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - BOOTSTRAP/CAPSTONE AND TARA OPEN-PIT GOLD MINE PROJECT, ELKO AND EUREKA COUNTIES, NEVADA. AN - 36402565; 5778 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of the Bootstrap/Capstone Mine and Tara Mine, located in Nevada is proposed. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The project would include re-opening the Bootstrap/Capstone Mine, the development of Tara Mine, the construction of two waste rock disposal areas, the construction of a heap leach facility, the construction of ancillary mine facilities, the upgrading of existing access roads in order to accomodate truck transportation of ore to the North Operations Area Mill Number 4 complex, and the reclamation of disturbed areas. The Agency's Preferred Alternative is Alternative B (leach ore would be transported to North Area Leach Facility for processing) and Alternative C-2 (off-site power would be used for the Bootstrap Project). Alternative A would include all components of the proposed action with the addition of backfilling the Bootstrap/Capstone pit with waste rock generated from the Tara pit. Alternative B would include ore processing at the north area leach facility. It would include all components of the proposed action except that in lieu of constructing and operating a heap leach facility at the Bootstrap Project site, leach grade ore would be hauled to Newmont's existing facilities. Alternative C would include an off-site power supply. It would include all components of the proposed action, but would eliminate use of diesel-generator sets for supplying electrical power to the project. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Newmont's proposal would use its existing work force in conducting open-pit mining and ore processing operations on unpatented mining claims and adjacent fee lands within the Bootstrap Project area to produce gold from ore reserves contained in the Bootstrap/Capstone deposit and Tara deposit. The project would allow for the continuation of direct employment in the mining industry and secondary employment in the retail and service sectors in the study area. Income would be generated from wages paid by Newmont and property taxes and net proceeds of mining tax would be collected by local and state jurisdictions. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The implementation of the proposed action would result in the relocation of waste rock and ore from the Bootstrap/Capstone and Tara pits to waste rock disposal facilities, heap leach pad, and tailings impoundment. Placement of the waste rock and ore at these facilities would modify the topography and landscape of the Bootstrap Project area. Approximately 1.13 million ounces of gold would be removed from this geologic resource. When exposed to oxygen and water, sulfide-bearing waste rock and ore could result in production of acid rock drainage; Newmont has proposed methods to encapsulate and monitor this rock material to minimize potential environmental impacts. The use of on-site power generation using diesel-powered generator sets in order to supply 3.5 megawatts of electrical power to the Bootstrap Project would generate particulate and gaseous emissions which would require the installation of emission control systems in order to meet State of Nevada ambient air quality standards. Potential adverse impacts to soil and watershed resources resulting from implementation of the proposed action would include loss of soil during salvage and replacement operations, sediment loss due to erosion, and reduction in productivity of soil material during the life of the operation. The proposed action would eliminate approximately 1,037 acres of vegetative cover in the Bootstrap Project area. Reclamation of the Bootstrap Project site would restore vegetation on all but approximately 264 acres of the mine area. The mine pits (264 acres) would not be revegetated. The adverse impact of the proposed action on social and economic values would include further stress on community service providers and housing in the area during the construction phase.

AN - 36410307; 5773 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. Focal issues identified in the scoping process 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), are considered in this final EIS. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 7), which was developed in response to public concerns expressed following the release of the draft EIS, 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, NSO stipulations would protect wild and scenic rivers, watersheds containing cutthroat trout populations, and sensitive soils from both minerals development and road construction. The estimated payroll for drilling four wildcat wells is $4.7 million. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Over the 15 year period that is considered in this final EIS, the projected lease revenues would be an estimated $8.0 million. 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. Soils, 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.

The progression and evolution of the step waves that will result from the transitions between high and low flow are estimated to aid in preparation for the release on the Colorado River. On the rising limb, the wave steepens and the increase from 10,000 to 40,000 cfs that takes 7.5 h at the dam will take only about 2 h at National Canyon, 181 mi downstream. The falling limb will stretch out over the entire study reach, taking about 39 h to fall back to 10,000 cfs at the dam and about 63 h to fall the same amount at Diamond Creek, 240 mi below the dam.

AN - 36403019; 5607 AB - PURPOSE: The leasing and development of oil and gas in the Beaverhead National Forest in southwestern Montana is proposed. Under the 1986 plan for the forest, some 1.64 million acres within the Beaverhead National Forest and 19,700 acres of the Deerlodge National Forest are available for oil and gas leasing; existing and proposed wilderness, certain planning areas, wilderness study areas, and stream segments eligible for wild status under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act would be unavailable for leasing. Focal issues addressed include the effects on water, soil, wildlife, roadless areas, recreation, and aesthetic resources. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 3), are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative 1), a 500-foot, no-surface-occupancy (NSO) buffer would be implemented on all lakes, roads, and perennial streams, and a 200-foot NSO buffer would be implemented for trails. Under this alternative only, the NSO stipulation would allow the construction of linear features such as roads, pipelines, and power lines. Some 503,400 acres of land would be legally unavailable; 588,500 acres would be available under standard lease terms; 380,300 acres would be available under a controlled-surface-use (CSU) or timing limitation; and 668,100 acres would be available with a NSO stipulation. Under the preferred alternative (Alternative 7), national forest lands would be identified as being available for lease authorization; lands made available would be subject to supplemental lease stipulations designed to assure protection of surface resources. Stipulations would be applied to reduce the amount of land available under standard lease terms. The availability of lands for leasing would be as follows: 512,400 acres of land would be legally or administratively unavailable; 415,900 acres would be available under standard lease terms; 741,700 acres would be available under a CSU or timing limitation; and 479,300 acres would be available with a NSO stipulation. Special restrictions would be imposed on habitat areas for westslope cutthroat trout, grizzly bears, and other species; in addition, campgrounds, slopes over 60 percent, and rivers eligible for Wild and Scenic River designation would receive special protection. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Accruals to the U.S. Treasury would include revenues from lease bonus bids, annual lease rentals, and timber sales in areas where timber would be cleared for roads or well pads. Construction and drilling activities would provide temporary employment opportunities for the local work force. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would make 19 percent of the roadless area leasable under standard terms and 38 percent under CSU stipulations. Air pollutant emissions from gas-driven field engines and emergency gas flaring could be significant in the area. Soils, 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.

AN - 36411171; 5597 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a permit for copper mining activities in the Hillsboro Mining District, located in Sierra County, New Mexico, is proposed. The Copper Flat Project, which is about three miles southwest of the town of Hillsboro, was initially developed in 1982 by the Copper Flat Partnership, Ltd., but the mine operated for only a three-month period. In 1994, the Alta Gold Company purchased the mine site with the intention of developing the site by reusing some of the facilities abandoned in 1982. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would involve expanding the existing open-pit mine, using existing buried foundations for building new concentrating facilities, expanding the waste rock disposal and tailings impoundment areas, and constructing a new tailings slurry pipeline. Electrical distribution lines, on-site water lines, and access roads would also be constructed or expanded; access and utility lines to the mine are currently in place. Most mining activities would take place on privately owned lands. Use of public lands would be required for the plant area, portions of three waste rock disposal areas, and the tailings impoundment. The project would use 537 acres of public lands and 566 acres of private lands; ore processing would require up to 2,000 gallons of groundwater per minute. Construction activities would begin sometime in 1996, and mining operations would commence 15 months thereafter and continue for 10 years. Following closure of the mine, reclamation would continue for three or four years. The project would produce roughly 280 tons of copper concentrate per day. The agency-preferred alternative would reduce the size of the open pit and require the applicant to mine a lower grade of copper ore. Under this alternative, 54 percent of the rock considered waste rock under the proposed action would be processed as ore. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The production of copper would provide jobs to area residents. The preferred alternative would significantly reduce the amount of waste rock generated by the project. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Project operations would disturb approximately 179 acres of public lands and 690 acres of previously-disturbed public and private lands. Groundwater use would cause a drawdown of wells and spring in the project vicinity.

AN - 36402469; 5594 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a general management plan for development and visitor use of Manzanar National Historic Site in Inyo County, California, is proposed. Manzanar was one of ten relocation centers established in western states during World War II to confine persons of Japanese descent residing on the west coast. These centers were created under Executive Order 9066, which authorized the Secretary of War to exclude citizens and aliens from Japan and other designated areas as a security measure against sabotage and espionage. The site is presently owned by the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power. There are three intact buildings on the site remaining from the center's operation: two small rock sentry posts and a large auditorium that is currently being used by the county as a maintenance facility. The proposed action would provide staffing and resource management in order to protect the site's historic and prehistoric features in perpetuity. Under the proposed action, the gridwork of the camp road system would be restored, some areas of dense tree growth would be thinned and cleared, the camp's perimeter fence would be reconstructed, and some of the rock gardens and ponds constructed by internees would be rehabilitated. The boundary of the camp would be increased by 30 acres in order to encompass additional historical resources associated with the camp. Historically significant orchards and ornamental plants would be retained. To enhance interpretation and visitor understanding of the camp experience, a barracks and watchtower would be reconstructed. Barracks blocks and significant structures throughout the camp would be marked to demonstrate the camp layout to visitors. The historic auditorium would be converted into an interpretive center. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, visitor understanding and appreciation of the camp's historic significance would be enhanced. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Thinning and clearing existing vegetation would result in some loss of wildlife habitat.

Preparation date: February 12, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - TUCKER HILL PERLITE PROJECT, LAKE COUNTY, OREGON. AN - 36398997; 5584 AB - PURPOSE: The development by Atlas Perlite, Inc., (Atlas) of a 15- to 20-acre perlite quarry with an associated waste rock dump and access road on Tucker Hill, which is located approximately 35 miles northwest of the town of Lakeview, in Lake County, south central Oregon, is proposed. Perlite is used in the manufacture of ceiling tiles for building construction, as a filter aid, and for a variety of agricultural purposes, including potting soil. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative D), are considered in this final EIS. Under the proposed action (Alternative A), the ore would be mined at Tucker Hill and hauled to Lakeview, where it would be crushed and sorted and shipped to markets in the northwest. A total of 37.7 acres would be disturbed, of which approximately 36 are administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The remaining two acres would be on private land. Atlas would operate the quarry for 10 years. The preferred alternative would be similar to the proposed action with the exception of stipulating that the waste rock would be hauled off Tucker Hill and deposited in the existing Lake County gravel pit, adjacent to Highway 31, where it would be used either as road maintenance material or by the county to aid in final reclamation when the pit was exhausted and closed out. This final EIS, which is issued in abbreviated format, includes corrections and revisions to the draft EIS as well as public comment and agency responses. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would help meet the demand for products made from perlite in the northwest. The development of the Tucker Hill quarry would provide a close and relatively inexpensive source of perlite which could result in lower prices to consumers and in reduced use of fossil fuels needed for shipping. Some 18 direct and indirect jobs would be provided under the action alternatives, and some tax revenue increases would be experienced by local governments. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The action alternatives would adversely affect, in varying degrees, Native American traditional values related to plants, hunting, visual integrity, and religious uses. They could also adversely affect 14 cultural sites including two stacked stone features. Vegetation/soils and wildlife habitat would be permanently lost on 20 acres, and temporarily lost on 11.7 to 17.7 acres.

AN - 36402440; 5576 AB - PURPOSE: The change of the energy marketing methods used by the Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) for the sale of long-term electrical capacity and energy from the Salt Lake City Area Integrated Projects (SLCAIPs) hydroelectric power plants is proposed. WAPA's mission is to sell and deliver excess electricity generated from power plants built as part of certain federal water projects. All of the power plants considered in this final EIS are operated by the Bureau of Reclamation, and most are located on the Upper Colorado River and its tributaries. The three major SLCAIP facilities that provide most of the power marketed by WAPA are the Glen Canyon Dam, Flaming Gorge Dam, and the Aspinal Unit. Power generated by SLCAIP facilities or purchased by WAPA from other sources is provided to WAPA customers under contracts. These contracts specify the amounts of capacity and energy that WAPA agrees to offer for long-term sale to its customers; these amounts constitute WAPA's commitment levels. Currently WAPA's sale commitments from the SLCAIP, including capacity and energy purchased from other sources, total approximately 1,200 megawatts (MW) of long-term firm capacity and 5,700 gigawatt-hours (GWH) of long-term firm energy. The commitment level was established in 1978 for the period through 1989. Seven alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. Under Alternative 1 (the preferred alternative), which would reflect the post-1989 commitment levels, some 1,449 MW of long-term firm capacity and 6,156 GWH of energy would be provided. Under Alternative 2, some 1,450 MW of capacity and 3,300 GWH of energy would be provided, thereby enabling customers to take most of their commitment during on-peak hours when power would be most available. Under Alternative 3 and Alternative 6, moderate levels of capacity (1,225 MW and 1,000 MW, respectively) and long-term firm energy (4,000 GWH and 4,750 GWH, respectively) would be provided. Under Alternative 4, which would assume that adverse water conditions would continue, some 550 MW of capacity and 3,300 GWH of energy would be provided. Under Alternative 5, some 625 MW of capacity and 5,475 GWH of energy would be provided. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The establishment of new guidelines for WAPA's power marketing program should provide long-term resource and contractual stability within the region. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: According to a model-based analysis of each alternative in relation to three sets of assumptions about water supply, each alternative would adversely affect the financial viability of WAPA's utility customers and the retail rates charged to end-users.

AN - 36398966; 5571 AB - PURPOSE: The reclamation of an existing uranium mill tailings pile by Atlas Corporation at its uranium mill site near Moab, Utah, is proposed. The mill ceased operating in 1984 and is being dismantled. The 10.5-million-ton, 130-acre mill tailings pile needs to be reclaimed for long-term disposal. Issues identified during the scoping process focus on the site's location on the Colorado River floodplain near the town of Moab and the Arches National Park. Contaminated materials are currently escaping the tailings pile at low rates, and tailings leachates are slowly diffusing downward into groundwater, some of which moves horizontally and enters the Colorado River. In addition, radioactive gas slowly escapes the tailings pile and enters the air. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, under which the NRC would make no licensing decision and Atlas would cease operations involving the management of the tailings (this is not considered a viable alternative), are considered in this draft EIS. The proposed action would require an amendment to Atlas's license from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). The amendment would enable Atlas to stabilize the tailings pile for permanent disposal in its current location at the Moab site, place the site under the long-term custodial care of the federal government, and prepare the site for closure. Under the proposal, the side slopes would be reduced to 30 percent or less to minimize the effects of erosion and possible earthquakes. Also, an earth and rock cover system would be installed over the pile to minimize radon escape, infiltration of rain water into the tailings, infiltration of tailings contaminants into groundwater, and tailings erosion potentially caused by surface runoff and flooding of the Colorado River and a nearby ephemeral channel known as Moab Wash. Earth and cover materials would be obtained from several possible borrow sites nearby. Following reclamation, future commercial reuse of roughly half of the site would be precluded. The estimated costs of the proposed action range from $11.0 million to $17.0 million. An alternative site located 18 miles northwest of the town of Moab is also under consideration. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the preferred alternative, the contaminated material at the site would be stabilized and solidified, which would substantially reduce risks to the environment and to human health. The proposed reclamation would minimize the risks from these contamination routes of contaminated material tailings and radioactive gas. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: After reclamation, tailings leachates would continue to enter the Colorado River but at a much slower rate than currently; these leachates would have a slight adverse effect on aquatic biota.

Preparation date: February 2, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - AMERICAN RIVER WATER RESOURCES INVESTIGATION; EL DORADO, PLACER, SACRAMENTO, SAN JOAQUIN, AND SUTTER COUNTIES, CALIFORNIA. AN - 36410230; 5574 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a water resources management plan to increase the water supply in portions of five counties 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, are considered in this draft EIS. 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. 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 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.

Floods are expected to suspend sand moved to the river bottom by lower flows and deposit it along river banks where it will be above water after the flood recedes. As a result, the limited sand resources can be used to preserve habitat for plants and wildlife and for use by recreationists. A controlled flood is planned for late March 1996 to provide data for science-based decision making.

AN - 36402405; 5572 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a permit for the development of an open-pit gold mine and a processing facility in Lander County in northcentral Nevada is proposed. The project area consists of unpatented mining claims on public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM); the site is located within Crescent Valley, south of Battle Mountain. The proposed site would be the fourth mining operation in the area to be operated by Cortez Gold Mines; the site is known as the Pipeline deposit, named for the presence of a nearby pipeline. All claims affected by the proposed operation are controlled by the applicant through direct ownership or various lease arrangements. The proposed action would include developing a new open pit mine with an associated dewatering system and waste rock dump; constructing a new combined heap leach/tailings impoundment facility; and constructing a new processing facility capable of handling 5,000 tons a day and complete with shops, warehouses, and other support facilities. The new mine and processing plant would operate for twelve years. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The production of gold would boost the local, regional, and national economies and provide jobs to area residents. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Project operations would disturb approximately 1,827 acres of land; the open pit by itself would disturb 235 acres. Acid rock drainage and the release of metals and other contaminants would degrade water quality. Air quality and visual resources would be moderately degraded by the proposed mining operation.

AN - 36410166; 5560 AB - PURPOSE: The expansion of tailings and waste rock storage areas to enable continued copper mining activities at the Cyprus Bagdad Copper Corporation's mine in Bagdad, Yavapai County, Arizona, is proposed. The site is located in west-central Arizona, approximately 50 miles west of Prescott, and approximately 100 miles northwest of Phoenix. Existing facilities include two tailings facilities (Mulholland and Mammoth tailings ponds), an open pit, a mill and solvent extraction-electrowinning plant, and waste rock disposal on private lands. Two alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, are considered in this final EIS. The proposed action (the preferred alternative) would include the development of Upper Mammoth tailings facility, the expansion of the South waste rock disposal area, and the continued excavation of the open pit. It would involve approximately 320 acres of public surface lands under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Land Management, and extend the life of the mine to 35 years. Total disturbance associated with the proposed action is estimated at 2,000 acres. The No Action Alternative would consist of continued mining operations on private lands for six years, including expanding the existing Mammoth tailings pond, expanding the open pit, and disposing of waste rock on private lands, followed by closure. No new disturbance would occur on public lands with the No Action Alternative, and the mine would proceed with reclamation and closure procedures in six years. This final EIS, which is issued in abbreviated format, contains corrections and revisions to the draft EIS, which has been reissued as a companion document. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would satisfy two underlying needs: copper production and economic support. Expansion activities would provide a short-term increase in employment, as well as preserve jobs for 520 mine employees beyond six years. Additional recoverable copper made available by the proposed action would total approximately 3.5 million tons. Reclamation of existing tailings at the neighboring Kimberley mine would increase by 16 million to 18 million tons. Estimated additional revenues realized from extending then life of the mine would total approximately $266 million. The proposed action would be in conformance with current land use and transportation plans. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would result in disturbance of 1,565 acres of native soil, with associated loss of soil productivity and wildlife habitat; dewatering effects on the aquifer in the vicinity of the open pit; potential adverse impacts on three historic properties identified on the project site; potential increases in acidic waste generation and noise levels; the temporary loss of grazing resources; and the degradation of visual quality from certain vantage points.

AN - 36385521; 5543 AB - PURPOSE: The development of Tumacacori National Historical Park, including constructing visitor facilities and services, increasing staffing, and implementing resource management strategies, in Santa Cruz County, Arizona, is proposed. The park is located 18 miles north of Nogales and the U.S.-Mexico border, and 43 miles south of Tucson. In 1908, the park was established as a national monument in order to preserve an ancient Spanish mission on the grounds; in 1990, Congress changed the designation of the park to a national historical park and combined the existing monument with the ruins of two other nearby Spanish colonial sites (Calabazas and Guevavi). Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, were considered in the draft EIS of July 1993. This draft supplement to the draft EIS considers a new proposed action (Alternative 4) which was developed in response to public concerns about staff housing maintenance facilities, and adobe preservation. Under Alternative 4, the park would be managed to preserve, fully interpret, and maintain the cultural resources at all three sites; to maintain and enhance natural resources; and to develop facilities to accommodate visitor services and National Park Service administrative functions. The three sites would eventually be linked along the mission trail, the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historical Trail. Boundaries at two of the sites would be adjusted to accommodate an increase in visitors, and fee acquisition of selected tracts of private tracts would be pursued. Housing and maintenance facilities located on the southeast corner of the Tumacacori unit would be retained temporarily, but these facilities would eventually be relocated further to the east on newly acquired lands. Facilities at Calabazas would include a combination residence/visitor contact station, visitor parking, an interpretive trail, and a small maintenance shop. Little development would occur in Guevavi. The estimated development costs are $1.34 million, and the estimated operating costs are $755,000 annually. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, the cultural resource values of the area would be preserved and visitor experiences enhanced as a result of the proposed development. The proposed staff increases would help to ensure the long-term protection of the site's unique resource values. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Under the proposed action, some visual, soil, and vegetative resources would be adversely affected in the short term.

AN - 36410197; 5573 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of an open pit gold and silver mine and associated processing facilities by the applicant, Talapoosa Mining, Inc., located in Lyon County in west-central Nevada, is proposed. The project site, which is located three miles northwest of the unincorporated area of Silver Springs, occupies 2,673 acres within an existing mining district on the eastern expansion of the Virginia Range. Most of the operations would occur on 2,340 acres of public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM); the remaining 333 acres is private land owned by the applicant. Under the applicant's proposal, current ore reserves would be mined over a period of 7 to 10 years. The life of the mine would depend on gold prices and other variables. Operations would consist of an open-pit mine, overburden and interburden disposal areas, ore stockpiles, a valley fill leach pad, process solution ponds, a processing plant, water treatment and supply facilities, and administration and support facilities. Three open pits would be mined on roughly 20- to 30-foot benches. Pit walls would have angles ranging from 40 degrees to 55 degrees. Under current projections, roughly 30 million to 42 million tons of ore-grade material would be recovered from these pits, and 90 million tons of overburden and interburden would be disposed of in two storage areas. One disposal area would be constructed to a height of 380 feet, and the other would be 500 feet high. Both the leach pads and solution ponds would be equipped with leak detection systems. Within the containment area, crushed ore would be mixed with lime, cement, and dilute cyanide before being moved by conveyor to the leach pad. After mining has been completed, the heap leach would be detoxified and closed, a safety berm and warning signs would be established around the pit perimeter, disturbed areas would be regraded and revegetated, and the area would be monitored. The only other alternative considered in this draft EIS is the No Action Alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would benefit the local economy, supporting 336 direct and indirect jobs and increasing local tax revenues by roughly $969,000. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would disturb 596 acres of native soils and vegetation; 147 acres associated with the open pits would be permanently damaged and could not be revegetated. Mining activities would be disruptive to wildlife and disturb habitat for the prairie falcon, Townsend's big-eared bat, the small-foot myotis bats, and burrowing owls. Up to 450 million gallons of water would be removed from the ground and used for processing, significantly affecting the water table.

AN - 36407355; 5542 AB - PURPOSE: The development of a system operating strategy and a regional forum for the Columbia River system in order to allow interested parties other than federal agencies a role in making decisions involving power distribution and allocation within the region is proposed. The Bonneville Power Administration markets power generated from 12 hydro projects operated by the Army Corps of Engineers and two projects operated by the Bureau of Reclamation. This programmatic review was initiated in response to demands by Indian tribes and fish and wildlife agencies for consultation on matters involving system planning and operations; another factor was the recent designation of the Snake River sockeye salmon as an endangered species and the chinook salmon as a threatened species. Seven alternatives are considered in this final EIS in response to the salmon stocks issue, including operations prior to the Endangered Species Act designation; current system operations, including efforts to provide additional anadromous fish flows; flow augmentation to improve the chances of fish survival; the management of water levels at upstream storage projects to keep the reservoirs as full as possible for as long as possible; the drawdown of the reservoirs at the four projects on the lower Snake River to near natural river elevations in order to increase the velocity of water through the reservoir; a less extensive drawdown of the reservoirs along the lower Snake River; and setting spring and summer fish flow targets based on storage content and other factors (the preferred alternative). Under the preferred alternative, drawdowns would not exceed minimum operating pool on the lower Snake River. In high flow years, projects would spill water and fewer fish would be transported; in low flow years there would be less spill and more transport. This final EIS also proposes technical revisions to the Canadian Entitlement Allocation Agreements, and to renegotiate and renew the Pacific Northwest Coordination Agreement; current agreements are scheduled to expire in 1998 and 2003, respectively. POSITIVE IMPACTS: This programmatic review is an effort to develop comprehensive, multipurpose management of the Columbia River system, a management method that would be responsive to public concerns as well as to the demands for energy production and natural resources protection. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Introducing flow improvements to benefit migrating anadromous fish would diminish the effectiveness of the system for traditional river uses. Flow augmentation measures would require storing water in the winter, a time when it would ordinarily be used to generate electricity. A loss in power-generating efficiency would increase the costs of meeting electrical demand. Keeping upstream storage sites as full as possible would detract from downstream sites, which are popular with recreationists. Reservoir drawdowns would have adverse impacts on resident fish, disrupting their habitat, spawning, and food supply; drawdowns would also reduce the amount of water available for irrigation.

Preparation date: January 19, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - NEVADA TEST SITE AND OFF-SITE LOCATIONS, CHURCHILL AND NYE COUNTIES, NEVADA. AN - 36398710; 5592 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a resource management plan for the Nevada Test Site (NTS) and related facilities used for nuclear weapons testing and waste storage in southern Nevada is proposed. The NTS consists of 1,350 square miles of public lands in Nye County, Nevada; these lands were used for underground nuclear testing until October 1992 when a moratorium on such tests was put in place. Presently the primary mission of the NTS is to maintain a readiness to conduct tests and, in an unlikely circumstance, to conduct tests if so directed by the President. The NTS serves a secondary role as a disposal site for low-level waste and a storage site for a limited amount of transuranic mixed waste. Related facilities in southern Nevada include the Tonopah Test Range and the Central Nevada Test Area, also in Nye County; the Project Shoal Area in Churchill County; and portions the Nellis Air Force Range Complex. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft EIS. Under Alternative 1, current operations in all facilities would be continued indefinitely. Under Alternative 2, activities and operations in the NTS would be discontinued. Only those environmental monitoring and security functions necessary for human health and safety would be maintained. Under Alternative 3, uses of the NTS for waste management and testing new environmental technologies would be expanded. Under Alternative 4, most defense-related activities at the NTS would be discontinued and certain portions of the NTS would be returned to the public domain for purposes of public education and recreation. All alternatives, except Alternative 2, would involve using some NTS lands as well as three sites in southern Nevada for development of an expanded solar enterprise zone. POSITIVE IMPACTS: A redefinition of the land uses and mission priorities of the NTS would respond to changes in nuclear testing policies. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: A continuation of underground nuclear tests, if directed by the President, would result in the release of large quantities of radioactivity into the subsurface and the formation of subsidence craters as well as the generation of ground motion that could be felt outside the bounds of the NTS. Any surface activities planned for the NTS could result in the disruption of desert tortoise habitat. The impact from waste management activities would be a result of transporting nuclear waste from other sites to the NTS. Most of the postulated injuries and fatalities would be a result of routine normal traffic accidents and not a result of exposure to the transported waste.

Preparation date: January 19, 1996 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - FERN LAKE PETITION EVALUATION DOCUMENT, CLAIBORNE COUNTY, TENNESSEE. AN - 36412545; 5537 AB - PURPOSE: The suitability of certain land for surface coal mining operations in the Little Yellow Creek watershed in Claiborne County, Tennessee, is proposed. A petition was filed by the City of Middlesborough, Kentucky, and the National Parks and Conservation Association that the lands be declared unsuitable. The 5.9-square-mile area is located along Little Yellow Creek, which drains into Fern Lake, a 110-acre public water supply lake for Middlesborough, Kentucky. The petition alleges that the mining of these lands would disturb a fragile ecosystem, reduce the availability of a public water supply, and be incompatible with the local land use plans and management plan for the nearby Cumberland Gap National Historic Park. Three alternatives available to the Office of Surface Mining (OSM) are considered in this draft EIS, including granting the petition and designating the entire area as unsuitable for coal mining operations (Alternative 1); denying the petition and permitting coal mining to occur (Alternative 2); and designating portions of the petition as unsuitable for certain types of coal mining operations (Alternative 3). Five sub-alternatives are associated with a partial designation, including disallowing surface extraction but allowing underground extraction anywhere in the petition area or only in those area where portals are not visible from the Pinnacle overlook; disallowing any surface extraction that would adversely affect the long-range productivity of the city water supply; restricting the amount of surface disturbance that could occur at any one time; and allowing limited amounts of surface mining while implementing additional controls to protect the watershed. A No Action Alternative is not under consideration because it would not adequately address the petition filed by the City of Middlesborough and the National Parks and Conservation Association; the effects of a No Action Alternative would be similar to the effects of Alternative 2. 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; a reduced population of blackside dace; increased water treatment costs, health screenings, and illnesses; increased sedimentation in Little Yellow Creek and Fern Lake; and reduced water availability in the Fern Lake watershed.

AN - 36409791; 5538 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a pumped storage hydroelectric project, located five miles west of the city of Las Vegas in Clark County, Nevada, is proposed. The project would be a self-contained, off-stream project that would transfer water back and forth from one reservoir to another in order to store or generate energy. The project, to be constructed by Blue Diamond Power Partners, would have an installed generating capacity of 200 megawatts (MW). The primary project facilities, including reservoirs, penstock, and powerhouse, would be new. The project would include a 31-acre upper reservoir located near the crest of Blue Diamond Hill, with a top dam elevation of 4,828 feet above mean sea level; a lower reservoir located near the foot of Blue Diamond Hill, with a surface area of about 32 acres and a top dam elevation of 3,320 feet; an approximately 1,137-foot-long, 12-foot-wide, concrete-lined inclined shaft; a 1,176-foot-long, 12-foot-wide tunnel connecting with a 12-foot-wide penstock that would be installed in a trench and extend to an underground powerhouse which would contain two 100-MW reversible pump turbine units; two eight-foot-diameter tailrace pipes extending about 100 feet from the powerhouse to the afterbay; a control building and substation located near the afterbay; a 2.2-mile-long, 138-kilovolt transmission line that would be routed eastward to connect with a Nevada Power Company transmission line; an approximately two-mile-long, 12-inch-wide water pipeline; and project access roads. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would satisfy the immediate electric power needs of the Las Vegas area and reduce the amount of power purchased from outside sources by the Nevada Power Company. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed project would permanently alter 182 acres of public lands and commit those lands to energy production and transmission. That acreage would include about 104 acres of creosote bush scrub habitat; its value to wildlife would be lost. LEGAL MANDATES: Federal Power Act of 1920, as amended (16 U.S.C. 791(a) et seq.).

AN - 36399533; 5528 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 draft EIS. 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 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 proposed 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.

Surface-water samples were collected from irrigation drains, ponds and streams in the Sharp Nose Draw and Mill Creek drainage areas, and from the Little Wind River. These samples were analyzed for selenium and mercury, as well as other selected inorganic constituents. Of the 13 samples collected in May, 6 had selenium concentrations greater than the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (USEPA) chronic aquatic-life criterion of 5 mg/L (micrograms per liter) and one exceeded the aquatic-life acute criteria of 20 mg/Lake Samples with selenium concentrations exceeding aquatic criteria were collected from Sharp Nose Draw and the Mill Creek drainage areas. Selenium concentrations in all 12 samples collected in August were less than the laboratory minimum reporting level of 5 mg/Lake The large selenium concentrations were associated with large dissolved solids concentrations that occur prior to the irrigation season when accumulated salts are flushed to drainages through ground water and natural precipitation. Mercury concentrations were less than the laboratory minimum reporting level of 0.1 mg/L for all samples except one collected in May that had a concentration of 0.3 mg/Lake This concentration was larger than the aquatic-life chronic criterion of 0.012 mg/L established by the USEPA, but less than the aquatic-life acute criterion of 2.4 mg/L for mercury established by the USEPA.

N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-13 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Numerical analysis of ground-water flow and salinity in the Ewa area, Oahu, Hawaii AN - 16252880; 4237298 AB - The coastal plain in the Ewa area of southwestern Oahu, Hawaii, is part of a larger, nearly continuous sedimentary coastal plain along Oahu's southern coast. The coastal sediments are collectively known as caprock because they impede the free discharge of ground water from the underlying volcanic aquifers. The caprock is a layered sedimentary system consisting of interbedded marine and terrestrial sediments of both high and low permeability. Before sugarcane cultivation eneded in late 1994, shallow ground water from the upper limestone unit, which is about 50 to 200 feet thick, was used primarily for irrigation of sugarcane. A cross-sectional ground-water flow and transport model was used to evaluate the hydrogeologic controls on the regional flow system in the Ewa area. Controls considered were: (1) overall caprock hydraulic conductivity, (2) stratigraphic variations of hydraulic conductivity in the caprock, and (3) recharge. In addition, the effects of a marina excavation were evaluated. Within the caprock, variations in hydraulic conductivity, caused by caprock stratigraphy or discontinuities of the stratigraphic units, are a major control on the direction of ground-water flow and the distribution of water levals and salinity. Model results also show that a reduction of recharge will result in increased salinity throughout the caprock with the greatest change in the upper limestone layer. In addition, the model indicates that excavation of an ocean marina will lower water levels in the upper limestone layter. Results of cross-sectional modeling confirm the general ground-water flow pattern that would be expected in the layered sedimentary system in the Ewa caprock. Ground-water flow is: (1) predominantly upward in the low-permeability sedimentary units, and (2) predominantly horizontal in the high-permeability sedimentary units.

Ground water is the predominant source of water for commercial, industrial, and domestic uses on the peninsula. Mean daily water use in an oil, gas, and chemical processing area north of Kenai is more than 3.5 million gallons. Unconsolidated sediments of glacial and fluvial origin are the most productive aquifers. In the upper (northwestern) peninsula, almost all water used is withdrawn from unconsolidated sediments, which may be as thick as 750 feet. In the lower peninsula, unconsolidated sediments are thinner and are absent on many hills. Water supplies in the lower peninsula are obtained from unconsolidated sediments and bedrock, and a public-water supply in parts of Homer is obtained from Bridge Creek. Throughout the peninsula, ground-water flow occurs primarily as localized flow controlled by permeability of aquifer materials and surface topography. The concentration of constituents analyzed in water from 312 wells indicated that the chemical quality of ground water for human consumption varies from marginal to excellent. Even though the median concentration of dissolved solids is low (152 milligrams per liter), much of the ground water on the peninsula does not meet water-quality regulations for public drinking water established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). About 8 percent of wells sampled yielded water having concentrations of dissolved arsenic that exceeded the USEPA primary maximum contaminant level of 50 micrograms per liter. Concentrations of dissolved arsenic were as great as 94 micrograms per liter. Forty-six percent of wells sampled yielded water having concentrations of dissolved iron greater than the USEPA secondary maximum contaminant level of 300 micrograms per liter. Unconsolidated sediments generally yield water having calcium, magnesium, and bicarbonate as its predominant ions. In some areas, ground water at depths greater than a few hundred feet may be naturally too salty for human consumption. The leaking and spilling of fuel and chemical products and the disposal of industrial wastes has degraded the quality of ground water at numerous sites.

A cooperative study between the city of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and the U.S. Geological Survey was started in March 1992 to assess the water quality and water quantity of the ground-water resource. This report summarizes selected hydrogeologic data collected from October 1992 through March 1996. Information collected includes water quality (major ions, nutrients, and pesticides), ground-water levels, multiprobe-instrument (water levels, specific conductance, pH, water temperature, and dissolved oxygen monitored at 15-, 30-, or 60-minute intervals), well information (location, casing type, screen interval, and depth), and geophysical seismic-refraction and seismic-reflection data (estimated depth to bedrock and alluvial thickness along the Cedar River). Geologic, hydrologic, and water-quality data were collected from domestic, municipal, observation, and industrial wells and the Cedar River. Well-construction data for more than 300 wells in the Cedar Rapids area in Benton and Linn Counties, Iowa, were compiled primarily from records on file with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, Geologic Survey Burea (Iowa City).

Wildwood Water Utility has injected ground water for public-supply storage since 1967 and in 1992 had four injection wells. The storage and recovery program began as a way to ensure an adequate supply of water for the summer tourist season. From 1967 through 1992 about 3.8 billion gallons was injected and about 3.3 billion gallons (about 85 percent of the injected water) was recovered. An electric company in Cape May County has used ground water for industrial-supply storage since 1965 and in 1992 had one injection well. The purpose of the storage and recovery program is to prevent saltwater encroachment and to ensure sufficient supply during times of peak demand. From 1967 through 1988 the company injected 100.0 million gallons and withdrew 60.6 million gallons, or about 61 percent of the injected water. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 29 pp. 1996.

The purpose of this report is to present information to assess the present (1992-95) conditions and possible future changes in the distribution and magnitude of atrazine concentrations, loads, and yields spatially, temporally, and in relation to hydrologic conditions and land-use characteristics. A network of 11 stream-monitoring and sample-collection sites was established within the basin. Streamwater samples were collected during a wide range of hydrologic conditions throughout the study. Nearly 5,000 samples were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for triazine herbicide concentrations. Daily mean triazine herbicide concentrations were calculated for all sampling sites and subsequently used to estimate daily mean atrazine concentrations with a linear-regression relation between ELISA-derived triazine concentrations and atrazine concentrations determined by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry for 141 dual-analyzed surface-water samples.

The computer model provides a technical basis for evaluating the effects of alternative patterns of operation of the Raritan River Basin water-supply system during extended periods of below-average precipitation. The computer model is a continuity-accounting model consisting of a series of interconnected nodes. At each node, the inflow volume, outflow volume, and change in storage are determined and recorded for each month. The model runs with a given set of operating rules and water-use requirements including releases, pumpages, and diversions. The model can be used to assess the hypothetical performance of the Raritan River Basin water-supply system in past years under alternative sets of operating rules. It also can be used to forecast the likelihood of specified outcomes, such as the depletion of reservoir contents below a specified threshold or of streamflows below statutory minimum passing flows, for a period of up to 12 months. The model was constructed on the basis of current reservoir capacities and the natural, unregulated monthly runoff values recorded at U.S. Geological Survey streamflow-gaging stations in the basin.

This report presents a description of the study area, selection of reservoirs sample-collection methods, sample preparation, laboratory methods, herbicide, nutrient, and quality-assurance data, and analytical results. Reservoir sites were sampled in 1992 - during early spring before application of herbicides, during the first major runoff after application of herbicides and after significant flushing of the reservoir during late summer, and during early fall. In 1993, samples were collected during early winter, late winter, and midsummer and during September following the 1993 flood. During August 1992, water temperature and dissolved-oxygen profiles were obtained from 17 selected reservoirs to investigate the effect of stratification on herbicide concentrations. Samples were analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry for 11 herbicides and 6 metabolites and by solid-phase extraction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for alachlor ethane sulfonic acid. The data from the reservoir study have been useful in determining the occurrence and temporal distribution of selected herbicides and their metabolites in outflow from selected reservoirs in the upper Midwest. The reservoir study also provided data to determine if the persistence of large concentrations of herbicides in reservoir outflow can be quantified on the basis of reservoir and drainage-basin characteristics, water and land use, herbicide use, and climate.

Debris flows and deposits of noneruptive origin, in addition to those associated with eruptive activity (lava flows, pyroclastic flows, and ash fall), inundate the fans and channels and can endanger people or property on the flanks of the mountain. This study evaluates the source and characteristics of historical noneruptive debris flows in the vicinity of Mount Shasta. At least 70 debris flows of noneruptive origin that occurred during the last 1,000 years have been identified in various stream channels on Mount Shasta. Of the four areas around the mountain, the most active are the McCloud River and The Whaleback-Ash Creek Butte depression; the Sacramento River area is the least active. Between 1900 and 1985, 37 debris flows occurred on different streams, with an average interval of 2.3 years between flows. Since 1900, Mud Creek (nine flows) and Whitney Creek (six flows) have been the most active channels. The path followed by a debris flow is not always at the lowest point in the channel, and the extent of downstream movement depends on the size of the flow. Former channels are inundated by the new flows and deposits, and new channels are eroded. In time, most of the entire channel between valley walls is subject to reworking. Most debris-flow deposits ranged in thickness from 0.4 to 2.5 meters. Thickness tends to decrease in a downstream direction. The deposits are generally of a convex shape, highest in the middle and lowest near the original valley wall. The ratio of water to solids in the slurry-sediment mixture of debris flows averages 68 percent by volume. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 27 pp. 1996.

The data were collected to establish the water quality of the Ohio River and to use in assessing the proposed effects of hydropower development on the water quality of the Ohio River. Water quality was determined by a combination of repeated synoptic field measurements, continuous-record monitoring, and laboratory analyses. Synoptic measurements were made along a longitudinal transect with 18 mid-channel sampling sites; cross-sectional transects of water-quality measurements were made at 5 of these sites. Water-quality measurements also were made at two sites located on the back-channel (Ohio) side of Browns Island. At each longitudinal-transect and back-channel sampling site, measurements were made of specific conductance, pH, water temperature, and dissolved oxygen concentration. Longitudinal-transect and back-channel stations were sampled at four depths (at the surface, about 3.3 feet below the surface, middle of the water column, and near the bottom of the river). Cross-sectional transects consisted of three to four detailed vertical profiles of the same characteristics. Water samples were collected from three depths at the mid-channel vertical profile in each cross-sectional transect and were analyzed for concentrations of phytoplankton photosynthetic pigments chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b. Estimates of the depth of light penetration (Secchi-disk transparency) were made at pigment-sampling locations whenever light and river-surface conditions were appropriate. Synoptic sampling usually was completed in 12 hours or less and was repeated 10 times from May through October 1993. Continuous-record monitoring of water quality consisted of hourly measurements of specific conductance, pH, water temperature, and dissolved oxygen concentration, made at a depth of 6.6 feet upstream and downstream of New Cumberland Dam. Continuous monitors were operated from May through October 1993. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 71 pp. 1996.

The simulated water levels are compared with the land-surface elevation data to determine the height of the water surface above or below land surface for the area of interest. Finally, the hydroperiod is determined for established time periods using criteria specified by the user. The program application requires the use of geographic information system software (ARC /INFO), including the TIN and GRID subsystems of the software. The application consists of an ANSI compatible C program to translate groundwater data output from the U.S. Geological Survey modular three-dimensional, finite-difference, ground-water flow model (MODFLOW) into a format that can be used as input for the geographic information system programs (AML's). The application uses ARC/INFO AML programs and ARC/INFO menu interface programs to create digital spatial data layers of the land surface and water surface and to determine the hydroperiod. The technique can be used to evaluate and manage wetlands hydrology. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 47 pp. 1996.

Most of the islands are part of low-lying coral atolls within the Western, Namonuito, Hall, and Mortlock Island Groups. A total of 648 wells were located and sampled for temperature and specific conductance. A few miscellaneous sites such as taro patches also were sampled. The nitrate concentration was determined for 308 water samples. To develop a relation between specific conductance and chloride concentration, the chloride concentration was determined for 63 water samples. In addition, 21 water samples were analyzed for major and trace constituent ion concentrations. Chloride and nitrate are the primary constituents affecting the potability of ground water in the inhabited outer islands of Chuuk State. The source of chloride in ground water is seawater, whereas nitrate is derived from plant and animal waste materials. The chloride concentrations in many well waters exceed the World Health Organization guideline for drinking water, particularly in wells near the shoreline or on small islands. In addition, the nitrate concentrations in some well waters exceeded the World Health Organization guideline for drinking water.

Concentrations of nitrate greater than the 0.05 mg/L reporting limit were found in 69.1 percent of the water samples, and nitrate concentrations exceeded the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency maximum contaminant limit of 10 mg/L in 9.6 percent of the 249 samples analyzed for nitrate. Pesticides or pesticide metabolites were detected in 72.4 percent of the 210 pesticide analyses, and 28 different compounds were found. Concentrations of multiple pesticide compounds above analytical reporting limits were found in water from about 60 percent of the wells sampled. Although pesticides were frequently detected, only one sample had a pesticide concentration that exceeded a maximum contaminant level for drinking water. The most frequently detected compounds, however, were pesticide metabolites for which maximum contaminant levels have not yet been established. Volatile organic compounds were detected in 13.5 percent of the 155 samples analyzed for these compounds. Only one sample had concentrations of volatile organic compounds that exceeded a maximum contaminant level for drinking water. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 47 pp. 1996.

These data were collected to determine the occurrence and distribution of organochlorine compounds and trace elements in the study unit. Ancillary data included are land-use categories by percentage of the sampling-site basins and the size, gender, and age of the individual fish collected for this study. Concentrations of 28 organochlorine compounds in composited whole fish samples were measured at 32 sites, and concentrations of 22 trace elements in composited fish liver samples were measured at 14 of the 32 sites. Most frequently detected organochlorines were DDT related compounds at 31 sites, total PCBs at 28 sites, and chlordane related compounds at 25 sites. Concentrations of total PCBs in fish tissue were generally higher at the large river sites than at the smaller tributary sites. Concentrations of chlordane-related compounds in fish tissue were higher at sites from more urbanized basins than at sites from predominately agriculture and forested basins. Concentrations of the DDT related compounds were undifferentiated among sites comprising different land uses. Trace elements detected at all 14 sites included boron, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum, selenium, and zinc. Trace elements detected at 10 or more sites included arsenic, mercury, silver, strontium, and vanadium. Antimony, beryllium, and uranium were not detected at any site.

Basin-level characterization of habitat is one component of the spatially hierarchial approach to stream habitat description adopted by the U.S. Geological Survey's National Water-Quality Assessment Program. The Central Nebraska Basins study unit is about 78,000 km super(2) in area and includes the Loup and Elkhorn River Basins as well as basins of smaller tributaries to the Platte River. Stream-basin habitat characteristics associated with nine fixed-sampling stations were computed from conventional and digital map data. Geographic information systems software was the principal analytical tool used. Basin characterizations generally were limited to only that part of each stream basin contained within the study unit. Habitat characteristics analyzed included basin size and shape, elevation, relief, drainage network characteristics, geology, physiography, soils, land use and cover, climate, runoff, and stream flow characteristics. The report presents a tabular summary of the basin-level habitat characteristics determined for the nine selected stream basins. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 25 pp. 1996.

In 1992, Florida had more than 35,000 farms with nearly 10.8 million acres in agriculture (U.S. Bureau of Census, 1994). Agricultural production in Florida annually contributes about 16 billion dollars to the State's economy annually (Mulkey and Clouser, 1990). This ranks agricultural production in Florida as one of the 10 largest agricultural states in the Nation (U.S. Department of Agriculture, 1991). The subtropical climate of the State and its close proximity to the east coast markets enable agricultural production to flourish. In central and southern Florida, the mild winters allow for early spring crop production as well as the potential to harvest multiple crops per year. The agricultural sector in Florida depends heavily on the availability of adequate water resources. Water demands for agricultural irrigation needs accounted for one-half of the State's total freshwater use in 1990 (Marella, 1992). JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. [np]. 1996.

N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-14 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Determination of roughness coefficients for streams in west-central Florida AN - 16240738; 4223956 AB - Physical and hydraulic characteristics are presented for 10 west-central Florida stream reaches. These may be used as reference reaches for estimating Manning's roughness coefficient, n, in similar rivers and channels. Discharge in these reaches ranged from 1.8 to 3,010 cubic feet per second and water-surface slope ranged from 0.00002 to 0.00476 foot per foot. Sites were selected at or near U.S. Geological Survey streamflow gaging stations at which the stage-discharge relations were relatively stable. Crest-stage gages were installed at appropriate locations in each study reach in order to obtain water-surface elevations. Water-surface profiles were collected over a range of discharges at each of the 10 sites and the roughness coefficient was computed for each discharge. For the 104 recorded streamflow events used in this report, the computed roughness coefficients ranged from 0.021 to 0.218 and the mean was 0.072. The median n value was 0.060; 70 percent of the time the n value was greater than 0.047 and 80 percent of the time the computed n was greater than 0.043. Bed material is so uniform at sites throughout west-central Florida that there is negligible variation in roughness as a result of variation in bed material. Streambank vegetation appears to be the major contributor to variations in roughness values for streams in west-central Florida. Channel roughness can be estimated quantitatively by evaluating the interaction of all roughness factors. Photographs of sites where n values have been computed can be used for comparison to estimate values at similar sites. Using a base n value of 0.040 and increasing n for factors of vegetation, channel obstructions, and other factors provides the best determination of n values for streams in west-central Florida.

The recording station provides the only high-altitude, long-term, year-round climate data for the mountains of south-central Alaska. The data set is 95 percent complete. Monthly precipitation-catch and average air temperature summaries are calculated for months with nine or fewer daily records missing. Annual data summaries are calculated for each hydrologic year, October 1 through September 30, for years that have 12 months of valid data. The average annual air temperature recorded at the site from 1967 through 1994 was -1.4 degrees Celsius (C). The coldest recorded year was 1972 with an average annual temperature of -3.2 degrees Celsius. The warmest year was 1981 with an average annual temperature of 0.4 degrees C. January 1989 was the coldest month with an average temperature of -14.0 degrees C. July 1993 was the warmest month with an average temperature of 10.2 degrees C. The average annual precipitation catch recorded at the site from 1967 through 1994 was 1,064 millimeters (mm). The highest annual precipitation catch recorded was 2,011 mm in 1980; the lowest was 690 mm in 1972. The highest recorded monthly precipitation catch was 426 mm in September 1976 and the lowest was 4 mm in February 1989. Because of low gage-catch efficiency, the reported annual precipitation-catch data are estimated to represent only 33 percent of the actual annual basin precipitation. Snowfall is the dominant form of precipitation and usually accumulates on the glacier from September through mid-June. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services. 79pp. 1996.

Hydrologic monitoring in the area is planned in order to evaluate any impacts from the proposed development. The hydrology in and around the Vale KGRA is not well known. Additionally, little is known about the targeted geothermal reservoir and the nature of its connection to the shallow ground-water system. Given this uncertainty, a variety of features were selected to ensure adequate monitoring coverage. Wells and springs in and around the geothermal area were evaluated, and 19 were selected as potential monitoring sites. In selecting wells and springs for monitoring, particular emphasis was placed on those with a known or probable connection with the geothermal system because they would most likely be the first to show any effects from development. The selected features include thermal wells in the hot-spring area near the town of Vale and a hot spring south of the KGRA. Several warm wells (70 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit) near the KGRA were also selected because it is likely that the water produced from these wells includes a component of geothermal water. In order to identify any effects of development, it is necessary to have an understanding of natural and man-caused variations and trends prior to development. A quarterly measurement schedule is proposed to help characterize these variations and trends. It is anticipated that the proposed monitoring plan will be modified as exploration and development proceed and more is learned about the geothermal system.

This amount was about 740 Mgal/d less than in 1988. The total water withdrawn for thermoelectric-power generation was about 15, 170 Mgal/d; about 370 Mgal/d was consumptively used. About 936 Mgal/d, or 33 percent, of the total water withdrawn in Illinois during 1990 was ground water, excluding withdrawals for thermoelectric-power generation; about 1,911 Mgal/d of surface water was withdrawn and used, excluding withdrawals for thermoelectric-power generation. Seventy-four percent of the total surface water, excluding withdrawals for thermoelectric-power generation, was withdrawn by public-supply facilities. The next largest use of surface water was for self-supplied industrial withdrawals. Forty-seven percent of the total ground water was withdrawn by public-supply facilities. The next largest use of ground water was for irrigation. About 25 Mgal /d of the total ground water withdrawn was saline. Sixty-five percent of the total water withdrawn, excluding thermoelectric withdrawals, in Illinois during 1990 was for public-supply facilities. The next largest users of the total water withdrawn was for self-supplied withdrawals by industries and for irrigation. Water withdrawn and delivered from public-supply facilities in Illinois during 1990 totaled about 1,859 Mgal/d. Surface water and ground water were the sources for about 1,415 and 444 Mgal/d, respectively, of the withdrawals for public supply. The total water obtained from Lake Michigan for public-water supply was about 1,146 Mgal/d. About 115 Mgal/d was withdrawn for self-supplied domestic purposes. Total self-supplied withdrawals and deliveries from public-water facilities for commercial use were about 672 Mgal/d. About 173 Mgal/d was self supplied by the commercial establishments. Total irrigation water withdrawals were about 78 Mgal/d. Total estimated livestock withdrawals were about 63 Mgal/d. Total self-supplied withdrawals and deliveries from public-supply facilities for industrial purposes were about 728 Mgal/d. About 464 Mgal/d was self-supplied withdrawals by industrial facilities. A total of about 94 Mgal/d was withdrawn during mining activities. A total of about 33 Mgal/d was withdrawn during mining from ground-water sources; about 25 Mgal/d of the ground water withdrawn was saline. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 55 pp. 1996.

The fundamental characteristic of the program is that most of the work is undertaken by the USGS through joint-funding agreements, with State, regional, and local agencies providing at least one-half the funds. The main objectives of the program are (1) to collect, on a systematic basis, data needed for the continuing determination and evaluation of the quantity, quality, and use of the Nation's water resources; and (2) to appraise the availability and the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of surface and ground water through data analysis and interpretive water-resources investigations and research. During fiscal year (FY) 1995, Cooperative Program activities were underway in offices in every State, Puerto Rico, and several territories in concert with about 1,100 cooperating agencies. In FY 1995, Federal funding of $62.1 million as matched by cooperating agencies, which also provided more than $28.2 million unmatched for a total program of about $152 million. This amounted to nearly 38 percent of the total funds for the USGS's water-resources activities. This report presents examples of FY 1995 investigations, as well as information on hydrologic data collection and water-use activities. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services. 39pp. 1996.

The analysis helped establish a regional framework of information for aquifers in about 70 intermontane basins in an area of 80,000 square miles. In many areas, ground water is the only suitable source of supply, yet little information is available about this resource. Selected geohydrologic data from 1,004 wells in 19 intermontane basins in Idaho were compiled as part of the regional analysis. Data consist of basin name and well number, altitude of land surface, date of well construction, geologic unit, depth of well, diameter of casing, type of finish, top of open interval, primary use of water, date of water level measurement, water level, discharge, specific capacity, source of discharge data, type of log available, date of water-quality constituent measurement, specific conductance, pH, and temperature. A similar report for intermontane basins in Montana has been published by the U.S. Geological Survey in Montana. (USGS). JF - USGS Branch of Information Services, Denver Fed.

Selected direct-current electrical resistivity surveys, together with available borehole geologic and geophysical data, were used to determine the approximate areal extent of the shallow clastic aquifers composed of thick sands and carbonate lithologies. Results indicated that a complex pattern of shallow sands, clays, and carbonate lithologies occur throughout the area. Buffed channel sands were found as deep as 50 meters below land surface in some places. The channels contain unconsolidated fine- to medium-grained quartz sand interbedded with sandy limestone, shell fragments, and gray-green sandy clay. Both surface and borehole geophysical techniques with lithologic data were necessary to approximately locate and define layers that might behave as confining layers and to locate and define the extent of any buried sand aquifers. The borehole geophysical data were used to analyze the zones of higher resistivity. Direct-current electrical resistivity data indicated the approximate location of certain layer boundaries. The conjunctive use of natural gamma and short- and long-normal resistivity logs was helpful in determining lithologic effects. Geohydrologic sections were prepared to identify potential locations of buried channels and carbonates containing freshwater. Buried channel sands and carbonate rock sections were identified in the subsurface that potentially may contain freshwater supplies. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 56 pp. 1996.

Using the particle-tracking program, particles were placed in every cell of the flow model (about 60,000 particles) and tracked backwards in time and space upgradient along flow paths to their recharge points. A new computer program was developed that interfaces the results from a particle-tracking program with a geographic information system (GIS). The GIS was used to display and analyze the particle-tracking results. Ground-water vulnerability was evaluated by selecting parts of the ground-water flow system and combining the results with ancillary information stored in the GIS to determine recharge areas, characteristics of recharge areas, downgradient impact of land use at recharge areas, and age of ground water. Maps of the recharge areas for each hydrogeologic unit illustrate the presence of local, intermediate, or regional ground-water flow systems and emphasize the three-dimensional nature of the ground-water flow system in Clark County. Maps of the recharge points for each hydrogeologic unit were overlaid with maps depicting aquifer sensitivity as determined by DRASTIC (a measure of the pollution potential of ground water, based on the intrinsic characteristics of the near-surface unsaturated and saturated zones) and recharge from on-site waste-disposal systems. A large number of recharge areas were identified, particularly in southern Clark County, that have a high aquifer sensitivity, coincide with areas of recharge from on-site waste-disposal systems, or both. Using the GIS, the characteristics of the recharge areas were related to the downgradient parts of the ground-water system that will eventually receive flow that has recharged through these areas. The aquifer sensitivity, as indicated by DRASTIC, of the recharge areas for downgradient parts of the flow system was mapped for each hydrogeologic unit. A number of public-supply wells in Clark County may be receiving a component of water that recharged in areas that are more conducive to contaminant entry. The aquifer sensitivity maps illustrate a critical deficiency in the DRASTIC methodology: the failure to account for the dynamics of the ground-water flow system. DRASTIC indices calculated for a particular location thus do not necessarily reflect the conditions of the ground-water resources at the recharge areas to that particular location.

The data were collected to establish the water quality of the Ohio River and to use in assessing the proposed effects of hydropower development on the water quality of the Ohio River. Water quality was monitored by a combination of synoptic field measurements, laboratory analyses, and continuous-record monitoring. Field measurements of water-quality characteristics were made along a longitudinal transect with 24 mid-channel sampling sites; cross-sectional transects of water-quality measurements were made at six of these sites. Water-quality measurements also were made at six sites located on the back-channel (West Virginia) sides of Marietta, Muskingum, and Blennerhassett Islands. At each longitudinal-transect and back-channel sampling site, measurements of specific conductance, pH, water temperature, and dissolved oxygen concentration were made at three depths (about 3.3 feet below the surface of the water, middle of the water column, and near the bottom of the river). Cross-sectional transects consisted of three to four detailed vertical profiles of the same characteristics. Water samples were collected at three depths in the mid-channel vertical profile in each cross-sectional transect and were analyzed for concentrations of phytoplankton chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b. Estimates of the depth of light penetration (Secchi disk transparency) were made at phytoplankton-pigment-sampling locations whenever light and river-surface conditions were appropriate. Each synoptic sampling event was completed in 2 days or less. The entire network was sampled 10 times from May 24 to October 27, 1993. Continuous-record monitoring of water quality consisted of hourly measurements of specific conductance, pH, water temperature, and dissolved oxygen concentration that were made at a depth of 6.6 feet at the ends of the upstream and downstream wingwalls at Willow Island Dam. Continuous-record monitors were operated from May through October 1993. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 112 pp. 1996.

Lakes located with the mantled karst region have long been considered to be sinkhole lakes, originating from subsidence activity. High-resolution seismic-reflection data confirm this origin for these four lakes. The geologic framework of the Lake Wales Ridge has proven to be a suitable geologic setting for continuous high-resolution seismic-reflection profiling in lakes; however, the nature of the lake-bottom sediments largely controls the quality of the seismic data. In lakes with significant organic-rich bottom deposits, interpretable record was limited to areas where organic deposits were minimal. In lakes with clean, sandy bottoms, the seismic-reflection methods were highly successful in obtaining data that can be correlated with sublake subsidence features. These techniques are useful in examining sublake geology and providing a better understanding of how confining units are affected by subsidence in a region where their continuity is of significant importance to local lake hydrology. Although local geologic control around each lake generally corresponds to the regional geologic framework, local deviations from regional geologic trends occur in sublake areas affected by subsidence activity. Each of the four lakes examined represents a unique set of geologic controls and provides some degree of structural evidence of subsidence activity. Sublake geologic structures identified include: (1) marginal lake sediments dipping into bathymetric lows, (2) lateral discontinuity of confining units including sags and breaches, (3) the disruption and reworking of overlying unconsolidated siliciclastic sediments as they subside into the underlying irregular limestone surface, and (4) sublake regions where confining units appear to remain intact and unaffected by nearby subsidence activity. Each lake likely is underlain by several piping features rather than one large subsidence feature. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 72 pp. 1996.

Eighteen areas of possible contamination were identified. Ground-water levels, surface-water stages, surface-water discharges, and results of field and laboratory analyses of soil and water samples are presented in tabular form. Many quality-assurance samples had detectable concentrations of methylene chloride and 1,2-dichloroethane, which may be due to sampling or laboratory contamination. Concentrations were as great as 5.9 micrograms per liter for methylene chloride and 2.6 micrograms per liter for 1,2-dichloroethane. Excluding 1,2-dichloroethane, most soil, ground-water, and surface-water samples contained no detectable concentrations of the organic constituents that were analyzed. Chemical analyses were performed on two lake-bed-material samples and more than 100 soil samples. The median lead concentration was 9.8 milligrams per kilogram. Concentrations of tetrachloroethene were as great as 1.1 milligram per kilogram in soils near a laundry. Water samples were collected from 101 wells. The maximum benzene concentration detected in ground water was 78 micrograms per liter from a well at the air station near a site where aviation fuel was spilled. Wells near a laundry yielded water having concentrations of tetrachloroethene as great as 3,000 micrograms per liter, and vinyl chloride as great as 440 micrograms per liter. A well in a former aviation gasoline storage area yielded water with a concentration of trichloroethene as great as 66 micrograms per liter. Water samples were collected from 59 sites on streams, lakes, or ponds. Surface-water samples had much lower concentrations of organic compounds; the highest concentration of benzene was 2.2 micrograms per liter in a stream near a former aviation-fuel storage area and the maximum vinyl chloride concentration was 15 micrograms per liter in a stream near a former landfill. Tetrachloroethene and trichloroethene were not detected in any surface-water samples. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 73 pp. 1996.

Stream and spring discharge, water temperature, and specific-conductance data were collected during low base-flow conditions from 64 sites on September 1 and 13, 1993, and from 64 sites on March 17 and 18, 1994. Discharge was greater during high base-flow conditions than low base-flow conditions. Major tributaries on the south side of the study area consistently had lower flow than the tributaries on the north side. Discharge data were used to categorize stream reaches and sub-basins. Stream reaches were categorized as gaining or losing, wet, dry, or unobserved for each base-flow measurement period. More dry stream reaches occurred during the two low base-flow periods than during the high base-flow period. Sub-basin areas with surplus or deficient flow were also defined. Many areas of deficient flow occurred near the headwaters of the Little West Fork basin under all base-flow conditions. Fewer areas of deficient flow occurred near the mouth of the basin. The flow per square mile for each major tributary basin in the study area was also calculated. The values of flow per square mile for the tributary basins in the northern part of the study area were greater than those for the tributary basins in the southern part of the study area under all base-flow conditions.

The reconnaissance was completed during two field trips made in June and September 1992, during which geothermal and hydrologic features of public interest in the Medicine Lake area were identified. Selected wells, springs, and geothermal features were located and documented, and initial water-level, discharge, temperature, and specific-conductance measurements were made. Lakes in the study area also were surveyed during the September field trip. Temperature, specific-conductance, dissolved oxygen, and pH data were collected by using a multiparameter probe. The proposed monitoring plan includes measurement of water levels in wells, discharge from springs, and lake stage, as well as analysis of well-,spring-, and lake-water quality. In determining lake-water quality, data for both stratified and unstratified conditions would be considered. (Data for stratified conditions were collected during the reconnaissance phase of this project, but data for unstratified conditions were not.) In addition, lake stage also would be monitored. A geothermal feature near Medicine Lake is a "hot spot" from which hot gases discharge from two distinct vents. Gas chemistry and temperature would be monitored in one of these vents.

A low-temperature (85 degrees Celsius) nitric acid digestion followed by the careful addition of hydrogen peroxide (30-percent solution) is used to decompose the biological material. The solutions are evaporated to incipient dryness, reconstituted with 5 percent nitric acid, and filtered. After filtration the solutions were diluted to a known volume and analyzed by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES), and cold vapor-atomic absorption spectrophotometry (CV-AAS). Many of the metals were determined by both ICP-MS and ICP-AES. This report does not provide a detailed description of the instrumental procedures and conditions used with the three types of instrumentation for the quantitation of trace metals determined in this study. Statistical data regarding recovery, accuracy, and precision for individual trace metals determined in the biological material tested are summarized.

Data presented are from January 1994 through September 1996, with a focus on data from July through September 1996 (third quarter of 1996). A complete database of ground-water withdrawals and chloride-concentration records since 1985 is maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey. Total rainfall for the period July through September 1996 was 8.94 inches, which is 60 percent less than the mean rainfall of 22.23 inches for the period July through September. July and August are part of the annual dry season, while September is the start of the annual wet season. Ground-water withdrawal during July through September 1996 averaged 1,038,300 gallons per day. Withdrawal for the same 3 months in 1995 averaged 888,500 gallons per day. Ground-water withdrawals have steadily increased since about April 1995. At the end of September 1996, the chloride concentration of water from the elevated tanks at Cantonment and Air Operations were 68 and 150 milligrams per liter, respectively. The chloride concentration from all five production areas increased throughout the third quarter of 1996, and started the upward trend in about April 1995. Chloride concentration of ground water in monitoring wells at Cantonment and Air Operations also increased throughout the third quarter of 1996, with the largest increases from water in the deepest monitoring wells. Chloride concentrations have not been at this level since the dry season of 1994. A fuel-pipeline leak at Air Operations in May 1991 decreased total islandwide withdrawals by 15 percent. This lost pumping capacity is being offset by increased pumpage at Cantonment. Six wells do not contribute to the water supply because they are being used to hydraulically divert fuel migration away from water-supply wells by a program of ground-water withdrawal and injection.

Prior to this, the spring was the drinking-water source for two families in the Dickson, Tennessee area. An investigation was conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with Dickson County Solid Waste Management, to determine if Sullivan Spring is hydraulically downgradient from the Dickson County landfill. This report describes the data collected during the investigation. Five monitoring wells were installed near the northwestern corner of the landfill at points between the landfill and Sullivan Spring. Water-level measurements were made on June 1 and 2, 1995, at these wells and 13 other wells near the landfill to determine ground-water altitudes in the area. Water-level altitudes in the five new monitoring wells and three other landfill-monitoring wells were higher (750.04 to 800.17 feet) than the altitude of Sullivan Spring (approximately 725 feet). In general, wells in topographically high areas had higher water-level altitudes than Sullivan Spring and wells near streams in lowland areas. JF - USGS Branch of Information Services. 16pp. 1996.

Contamination of the surficial aquifer system and availability of a potable water supply have become of increasing concern. The study consisted of sampling 11 ground-water wells and 14 surface-water sites for determination of major inorganic constituents and physical characteristics, trace metals, nitrogen and phosphorus species, and synthetic organic compounds. Sodium and chloride concentrations exceeded Florida drinking-water standards in ground water at two wells, dissolved-solids concentrations at five ground-water wells and one surface-water site, and color values at all 11 ground-water wells and all 14 surface-water sites. Other constituents also exhibited concentrations that exceeded drinking-water standards. Cadmium and zinc concentrations exceeded the standards in ground water at one well, and lead concentrations exceeded the standard in ground water at five wells. Nitrogen and phosphorus specie concentrations did not exceed respective drinking-water standards in any ground-water or surface-water samples. Several synthetic organic compounds were detected at or above 50 micrograms per liter in water samples collected from six ground-water wells and three surface-water sites.

Investigations were initiated to assess the effect of contamination to the surficial aquifer at Sites 1062, 2438, and 2444. These investigations involved the installation of permanent monitoring wells and the collection and analysis of sediment and ground-water samples at the three sites. Water-level data were collected at all sites to determine hydraulic gradients and the direction of ground-water flow. In addition, aquifer tests were made at Site 1062 to determine the hydraulic conductivity of the surficial aquifer at that site. Sediment borings were made at the three sites to collect subsurface-sediment samples for lithologic description and laboratory analyses, and for the installation of ground-water monitoring wells. Laboratory analyses of sediment samples collected from boreholes at Site 1062 indicated elevated concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons at three locations. Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons - Diesel Range Organics were detected at one borehole at a concentration of 388,000 micrograms per kilogram. Total benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene concentrations in sediment from the site ranged from less than 350 to over 100,000 micrograms per kilogram. Total lead was detected at concentrations ranging from 2,900 to 5,900 micrograms per kilogram. Petroleum hydrocarbons were detected at Site 2438 in one borehole at a trace concentration of 112 micrograms per kilogram of para- and meta-xylenes. No concentrations exceeding the detection limits were reported for petroleum hydrocarbons in sediment samples collected from Site 2444; however, total lead was detected in sediment samples from two boreholes, each at concentrations of 600 micrograms per kilogram. Ground-water samples were collected from each site for laboratory analysis and field-property determinations. Petroleum hydrocarbons and lead were detected at concentrations exceeding regulatory limits for drinking water in ground water from Site 1062 only. Petroleum hydrocarbons were detected in ground water from three wells at Site 1062, with the highest concentrations occurring in the area of the former underground storage tanks. Benzene was detected at concentrations as much as 28 micrograms per liter; toluene as much as 558 micrograms per liter; para- and meta-xylenes as much as 993 micrograms per liter; and naphthalene as much as 236 micrograms per liter. Ethylbenzene and ortho-xylene were detected in one well at concentrations of 70 and 6 micrograms per liter, respectively. Dissolved lead was detected in ground water from four wells at concentrations from 5 to 152 micrograms per liter. Analysis of ground-water samples collected from Sites 2438 and 2444 showed little evidence of petroleum-hydrocarbon contamination. Petroleum hydrocarbons were not detected in any of the ground-water samples collected from Site 2438. With the exception of a low concentration of naphthalene (11 micrograms per liter) detected in ground water from one well, petroleum hydrocarbons and lead were not detected in ground water collected from Site 2444.

N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-14 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - Geomorphology of the lower Copper River, Alaska AN - 16230733; 4223974 AB - The Copper River, located in southcentral Alaska, drains an area of more than 24,000 square miles. About 30 miles above its mouth, this large river enters Miles Lake, a proglacial lake formed by the retreat of Miles Glacier. Downstream from the outlet of Miles Lake, the Copper River flows past the face of Childs Glacier before it enters a large, broad, alluvial flood plain. The Copper River Highway traverses this flood plain and in 1996, 11 bridges were located along this section of the highway. These bridges cross parts or all of the Copper River and in recent years, some of these bridges have sustained serious damage due to the changing course of the Copper River. Although the annual mean discharge of the lower Copper River is 57,400 cubic feet per second, most of the flow occurs during the summer months from snowmelt, rainfall, and glacial melt. Approximately every six years, an outburst flood from Van Cleve Lake, a glacier-dammed lake formed by Miles Glacier, releases approximately 1 million acre-feet of water into the Copper River. At the peak outflow rate from Van Cleve Lake, the flow of the Copper River will increase an additional 140,000 and 190,000 cubic feet per second. Bedload sampling and continuous seismic reflection were used to show that Miles Lake traps virtually all the bedload being transported by the Copper River as it enters the lake from the north. The reservoir-like effect of Miles Lake results in the armoring of the channel of the Copper River downstream from Miles Lakes, past Childs Glacier, until it reaches the alluvial flood plain. At this point, bedload transport begins again. The lower Copper River transports 69 million tons per year of suspended sediment, approximately the same quantity as the Yukon River, which drains an area of more than 300,000 square miles. By correlating concurrent flows from a long-term streamflow-gaging station on the Copper River with a short-term streamflow-gaging station at the outlet of Miles Lake, long-term flow characteristics of the lower Copper River were synthesized. Historical discharge and cross-section data indicate that as late as 1970, most of the flow of the lower Copper River was through the first three bridges of the Copper River Highway as it begins to traverse the alluvial flood plain. In the mid 1980's, a percentage of the flow had shifted away from these three bridges and in 1995, only 51 percent of the flow of the Copper River passed through them. Eight different years of aerial photography of the lower Copper River were analyzed using Geographical Information System techniques. This analysis indicated that no major channel changes were caused by the 1964 earthquake. A flood in 1981 that had a recurrence interval of more than 100 years caused significant channel changes in the lower Copper River. A probability analysis of the lower Copper River indicated stable areas and the long-term locations of channels. By knowing the number of times a particular area has been occupied by water and the last year an area was occupied by water, areas of instability can be located. A Markov analysis of the lower Copper River indicated that the tendency of the flood plain is to remain in its current state. Large floods of the magnitude of the 1981 event are believed to be the cause of major changes in the lower Copper River. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 123 pp. 1996.

This is the second report for the project. The first report (Carter, 1995) presented data collected through water year 1993. The purpose of the Huron Project is to demonstrate the artificial recharge potential of glacial aquifers in eastern South Dakota. High flows from the James River during spring runoff were used as a source of supplemental recharge for the Warren aquifer, which is a buried, glacial aquifer. In 1990, 70 observation wells were installed by the South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) specifically for this study, and 15 existing DENR observation wells were incorporated into the study. In 1993, the recharge well was installed. After a trial injection of recharge water in April 1994, continuous injection began in June 1994. Many sites were monitored to obtain information before, during, and after recharging the aquifer. This report presents data that were collected during the three phases of recharge. Precipitation data are collected at two sites within the study area. A site description and daily precipitation for water years 1994-95 are presented for one precipitation site. Water-level hydrographs are presented for the 85 observation wells and the recharge well. Hydrographs are shown for the period from October 1, 1993, through November 29, 1995. Recharge water was injected from June 2, 1994, through July 29, 1994, and from June 14, 1995, through September 13, 1995. The cumulative volume of injected water and the injection rates into the aquifer are presented for the periods of recharge. Water-quality data were collected from screening, detailed, and plume-monitoring sampling programs. Screening water-quality data for six observation wells are presented. These data include primarily field parameters and common ions. The four detailed sampling sites represent the quality of untreated water, treated water, and ground water from the Warren aquifer. Data presented for the detailed sampling program include field parameters, bacteria counts, and concentrations of common ions, solids, nutrients, trace elements, radiometrics, total organic carbon, herbicides, insecticides, and volatile organic compounds. Water-quality data for the plume-monitoring sampling program were collected from 25 sites during injection of recharge water into the Warren aquifer in 1994 and 1995. The data for the plume-monitoring program include primarily field parameters and common ions. Data for quality-assurance samples also are presented.

The Millington site is located along the Big Creek Drainage Canal east of State Route 240. Water levels were monitored in thirteen 8-inch-diameter wells from July 1994 through September 1995. Water-level recorders provided continuous measurement of water level during periods of wetland inundation and depth to water table during periods of noninundation. A crest-stage indicator and a continuous-stage recorder were installed to monitor surface-water fluctuation. Precipitation data were recorded to determine timing and duration of rainfall events. Land surface at the wells was inundated from 0 to 48 percent of the study period. Additionally, water levels at the wells were within 1.5 feet of the land surface from 0 to 56 percent of the study period. The Huntingdon study site is located along the Crooked Creek Drainage Canal at State Route 22. Ground-water levels were monitored in two wells (wells W-1 and W-2) with continuous water-level recorders from May 1994 through September 1995. Water levels did not rise above land surface at either well during the study. Water levels at wells W-1 and W-2 were within 1.5 feet of the land surface 46 and 50 percent of the study period, respectively. Surface-water stage was monitored at a pond on the mitigation site.

The peak discharge for the May 19, 1990, flood on Perry Creek at 38th Street, Sioux City (06600000) is the second largest flood-peak discharge recorded at the streamflow-gaging station for the period 1939-95. The peak discharge for May 19, 1990, of 8,670 cubic feet per second, is approximately equal to the 35-year recurrence-interval discharge. The report provides information on flood stages and discharges and floodflow frequencies for streamflow-gaging stations in the Perry Creek Basin using flood information collected during 1939-95. Information on temporary bench marks and reference points established in the Perry Creek Basin during 1990-93 is also included in the report. A flood history describes rainfall conditions for the three largest floods that occurred during 1939-95 (July 1944, September 1949, and May 1990).

The source of contamination is secondarily treated sewage that has been discharged onto rapid-infiltration sand beds at the Massachusetts Military Reservation since 1936. Contaminated ground water containing as much as 2 milligrams per liter of dissolved phosphorus is discharging into Ashumet Pond, and there is concern that the continued discharge of phosphorus into the pond will accelerate eutrophication of the pond. Water-quality data collected from observation wells and multilevel samplers from June through July 1995 were used to delineate the spatial distributions of specific conductance, boron, and phosphorus. Temporal distributions were determined using sample-interval-weighted average concentrations calculated from data collected in 1993, 1994, and 1995. Specific conductances were greater than 400 microsiemens per centimeter at 25C as far as 1,200 feet downgradient from the infiltration beds. Boron concentrations were greater than 400 micrograms per liter as far as 1,800 feet downgradient from the beds and phosphorus concentrations were greater than 3.0 milligrams per liter as far as 1,200 feet from the beds. Variability in distributions of specific conductance and boron concentrations is attributed to the history and distribution of sewage disposal onto the infiltration beds. The distribution of phosphorus concentrations also is related to the history and distribution of sewage disposal onto the beds but additional variability is caused by chemical interactions with the aquifer materials. Temporal changes in specific conductance and boron from 1993 to 1995 were negligible, except in the lower part of the plume (below an altitude of about 5 feet above sea level), where changes in weighted-average specific conductance were greater than 100 microsiemens per centimeter at 25C. Temporal changes in phosphorus generally were small except in the lower part of the plume, where weighted-average phosphorus concentrations decreased more than 1.3 milligrams per liter from 1993 to 1994. This decrease was accompanied by an increase in specific conductance. High concentrations of phosphorus associated with low and moderate specific conductances possibly are the result of rapid phosphorus desorption in response to an influx of uncontaminated ground water. As a result of the cessation of sewage disposal in December 1995, clean, oxygenated water moving into contaminated parts of the aquifer may cause rapid desorption of sorbed phosphorus and temporarily result in high dissolved phosphorus concentrations in the aquifer.

Biological data include trace-element concentrations in whole-body tissue of aquatic benthic insects. Quality-assurance data are reported for analytical results of water, bed sediment, and biota. Statistical summaries of water-quality, bed-sediment, and biological data are provided for the period of record at each station since 1985. JF - USGS BRANCH OF INFORMATION SERVICES. 109 pp. 1996.

The upper Cache River is encroaching on Heron Pond, which has raised the issue of the possibility of a failure of the Heron Pond wall, the area between Heron Pond and the upper Cache River. Hydraulic, geotechnical, geomorphic, and biologic data were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, Office of Water Resources (IDNR/OWR) for use in designing a mitigation plan by the IDNR/OWR to prevent the failure of the Heron Pond wall. The river is sluggish during floods with velocities generally 1-2 feet per second. Biologic activity in the area have increased bank instability, which already is a problem because of saturated soils in the Heron Pond wall. In the area adjacent to the Heron Pond, the right descending bank of the upper Cache River receded 0.5 foot between September 21, 1995 and June 25, 1996. Comparisons between two surveys, 1958 and 1995, indicate that the channel near the discontinued USGS streamflow-gaging station near the Burlington Northern Railroad crossing has widened by more than 10 feet with less than 0.5 foot of incision.
