the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA), and Public Law 102–484
section 2834, as amended by Public Law
104–106 section 2867, the Department
of the Army and the California State
Coastal Conservancy (SCC) hereby give
notice of intent to prepare a joint
Supplemental Environmental Impact
Statement/Environmental Impact Report
(SEIS/EIR) for the Hamilton Wetland
Restoration Project (HWRP), Marin
County, California to consider
alternative methods to transfer dredged
material collected from various
navigational dredging projects within
San Francisco Bay to the HWRP site for
beneficial re-use in the construction of
tidal and seasonal wetlands. The U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) is the
lead agency for this project under
NEPA. The SCC is the lead agency for
this project under CEQA.
A pubic scoping meeting will be held
to solicit comments on the
environmental scope of the project and
the appropriate scope of the SEIS/EIR.
DATES: The public scoping meeting will
be held on the 26th of January 2005
from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Bay Model, 2100
Bridgeway, Sausalito, Marin County,
CA.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Questions about the proposed action
and SEIS/EIR can be answered by: Eric
Jolliffe, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,
San Francisco District, 333 Market St.,
7th floor, San Francisco, CA 94105,
ejolliffe@spd02.usace.army.mil, (415)
977–8543.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
HWRP is located on the former
Hamilton Army Airfield approximately
25 miles north of San Francisco in
Marin County, CA. The original EIS/EIR
was prepared for the HWRP in 1998.
This project would involve the
beneficial re-use of an estimated 10.6
million cubic yards (MCY) of dredged
material to restore the 988-acre site to
tidal and seasonal wetland, which is
critical habitat for several local
endangered species. Site preparation
construction required prior to dredged
material placement has begun. The first
SEIS/EIR, which described expanding
the project to include the Bel Marin
Keys V (BMK–V) property, was
completed in 2003. Pending
congressional authorization, the
adjacent BMK–V site of approximately
1610 acres will be restored as a part of
the HWRP using approximately 14 MCY
of additional dredged material. The
present notice announces the intent to
prepare a second SEIS/EIR on the
HWRP, which evaluates alternative
methods for delivering dredged material
