Water Tank: The ski area’s current
culinary water storage tank is
insufficient in capacity and in need of
replacement. A new 120,000-gallon
steel, above-ground tank would be
installed west of the snowmaking
reservoir, in a grove of trees on the
skier’s left side of Snake ski run. This
site is accessible, adjacent to in-place
piping, and partially screened by
vegetation. The existing concrete tank
would be abandoned in place, as it is
buried beneath occupied sensitive
habitat on the Bimbo run.
Lead and Cooperating Agencies: The
Forest Service will be the lead federal
agency in accordance with 40 Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) 1501.5(b) and
is responsible for the preparation of the
EIS. Scoping will determine if any
cooperating agencies are needed.

Supervisor, Humboldt-Toiyabe National
Forest Supervisor’s Office, 1200
Franklin Way, Sparks, Nevada 89431,

Decision to Be Made: The responsible
official will decide whether to authorize
Lee Canyon to implement the action as
proposed or modified, or to take no
action. The responsible official will also
decide what mitigation measures and
monitoring will be required. A Forest
Plan amendment may be required for
one or more actions to be authorized
(SMNRA GMP, Management Area 11.57
Standards and Guidelines, p. 11–35).
Preliminary Issues: Preliminary issues
include potential effects on: watershed
resources, special-status plant and
animal species, heritage resources, and
scenic integrity.

Participation in Subsequent
Environmental Review: A DEIS will be
prepared for comment. The comment
period on the DEIS will be 45 days from
the date the Environmental Protection
Agency publishes the Notice of
Availability in the Federal Register.
To assist the Forest Service in
identifying and considering issues and
concerns on the proposed action,
comments on the DEIS should be as
specific as possible. It is also helpful if
comments refer to specific pages or
sections of the DEIS. Comments may
also address the adequacy of the DEIS
or the merits of the alternatives
formulated and discussed in the DEIS.
