ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This notice advises the public
that the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA)
as lead agency, with the Estom Yumeka
Maidu Tribe (Enterprise Rancheria) as a
cooperating agency, intends to gather
information necessary for preparing an
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
for a proposed 40 acre fee-to-trust
transfer and casino and hotel project to
be located in Yuba County, California.
The purpose of the proposed action is
to help provide a land base for, and
address the socio-economic needs of the
Enterprise Rancheria. This notice also
announces a public scoping meeting to
identify potential issues, concerns and
alternatives to be considered in the EIS.
DATES: Written comments on the scope
and implementation of this proposal
must arrive by June 20, 2005. The public
scoping meeting, to be co-hosted by the
BIA and the Enterprise Rancheria, will
be held June 9, 2005, from 6 p.m. to 9
p.m., or until the last public comment
is received.

Comments, Enterprise Rancheria, 40
Acre Fee-to-Trust Casino/Hotel Project,
Yuba County, California,’’ on the first
page of your written comments.
The public scoping meeting will be
held at the Elk’s Lodge, 920 D Street,
Marysville, California 95901–5322.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John
Rydzik, (916) 978–6042.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 40
acre project site is located 4 miles
southeast of the Community of
Olivehurst, California, near the
intersection of Forty Mile Road and
State Route 65, in unincorporated Yuba
County. The site is currently
undeveloped and in use for hay farming.
Surrounding land uses include
agriculture, open space and
entertainment.
The proposed action consists of the
placing of a 40 acre parcel, currently
privately owned, into federal trust status
and the construction of a casino-hotel
project, for the benefit of the Enterprise
Rancheria. The proposed construction
would consist of a 207,760 square-foot
gaming facility and a 107,125 squarefoot hotel on the 40 acre parcel. The
two-story gaming facility would include
a casino floor, food and beverage areas
(including a buffet, gourmet restaurant,
and bar), meeting space, guest support
services, offices and security area. The
eight-story hotel would contain 170
rooms (152 standard rooms and 18
suites) and would feature a lobby area,
retail space, exercise room and arcade.
The BIA previously prepared an
Environmental Assessment (EA) that
analyzed the potential environmental
effects of the proposed action. The EA
was made available for public
comments in July 2004. Upon
consideration of the public and agency
comments received during the 30-day
public comment period, the BIA, in
consultation with the Enterprise
Rancheria, decided to prepare an EIS to
further analyze the environmental
effects which may result from the
proposed action.
Areas of environmental concern to be
addressed in the EIS include land use,
geology and soils, water resources,
agricultural resources, biological
resources, cultural resources, mineral
resources, paleontological resources,
traffic and transportation, noise, air
quality, public health/environmental
hazards, public services and utilities,
hazardous waste and materials, socioeconomics, environmental justice, and
