it for specific uses. The scheduled oneon-one discussions are meant to ensure
that private communication between
each interested party and ARL can
occur. This will greatly assist in a
potential licensee’s review process in
determining the applicability of the ARL
acoustic monitor to each specific
application and in fully understanding
the licensing process. If you are

Intent To Prepare an Environmental
Impact Statement for Potential
Multipurpose Projects for Flood
Damage Reduction and Recreation
Development Within and Along the
Highland Lakes, Colorado River, TX
Department of the Army, U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers, DoD.
ACTION: Notice of intent.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: Four Authorities authorize
the study of the Colorado River and its
Tributaries: (1) Flood Control Act,
approval June 22, 1936: ‘‘Section 6. The
Secretary of War is hereby authorized
and directed to cause preliminary
examinations and surveys for flood
control at the following named localities
* * * Colorado River, Texas, above the
county line between Coke and Runnels
counties * * * Lower Colorado River,
Texas.’’ (2) Resolution by the Committee
on Commerce, United States Senate,
adopted August 4, 1936; ‘‘Resolved by
the Committee of the United States
Senate, that the Board of Engineers for
Rivers and Harbors created under
Section 3 of the River and Harbor Act,
approved June 13, 1902, be and is
hereby, requested to review the reports
on Colorado River, Texas, submitted in
House Document Number 361, Seventyfirst Congress, second session, and
previous reports, with a view to
determining if improvement in the
interest of commerce and flood control
VerDate jul<14>2003
14:24 Jul 19, 2005
Jkt 205001
is advisable at the present time.’’ (3)
Rivers and Harbors Act, approved
August 26, 1937: ‘‘Section 4. The
Secretary of War is hereby authorized
and directed to cause preliminary
examinations and surveys to be made at
the following named localities * * *
Colorado River, and its tributaries,
Texas, with a view to its improvement
in the interest of navigation and flood
control.’’ (4) Rivers and Harbors Act,
approved March 2, 1945: ‘‘Section 6.
The Secretary of War is hereby
authorized and directed to cause
preliminary examinations and surveys
to be made at the following named
localities * * * Colorado River, Texas.’’
An initial assessment based on the
resolution guidance indicates a Federal
interest in continuing with more
detailed studies for these purposes. In
accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act, an
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
will be prepared to evaluate and
compare flood control damage reduction
and recreation alternatives within and
along the Colorado River and its
tributaries concentrated along the
Highland Lakes. The EIS will also assess
the impacts to the quality of the human
environment associated with each
alternative. The study area for project
implementation primarily includes the
lower Colorado River and its adjoining
tributaries below Lake O.H. Ivie to Tom
Miller Dam or Lake Austin. The
construction of residential and
commercial structures within the
Highland Lakes and along the Colorado
River, have lead to extensive amounts of
flood damages. Consequently, flood
damage reduction measures will be
developed to address the flood damages.
In addition, recreation measures will be
developed and evaluated as
complements to proposed flood damage
reduction measures. The non-Federal
cost sharing sponsors for the feasibility
study are the Lower Colorado River
Authority and Travis County.
DATES: A public scoping meeting will be
held during the fall of 2005. Notices will
be sent to interested parties, posted on
the project Web site at https://
www.fdep.org and a notice will be
published in local newspapers.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Questions pertaining to the proposed
action and EIS can be answered by: Mr.
Tom Vogt, CESWF–PM–C, U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers, Fort Worth District,
PO Box 17300, Fort Worth, TX 76102–
0300, (817) 886–1378.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Highland Lakes are comprised of six
lakes: Lake Buchanan, Inks Lake, Lake
LBJ, Lake Marble Falls, Lake Travis, and
PO 00000
Frm 00014
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Lake Austin. The Lower Colorado River
Authority operates all of the Highland
Lakes. Only Lake Travis is operated as
a flood reservoir.
Alternatives for flood damage
reduction and recreation will be
developed and evaluated based on
ongoing fieldwork and data collection
and past studies conducted by the Corps
of Engineers and the Lower Colorado
River Authority. Alternatives for flood
damage reduction measures will be
evaluated from both a non-structural
and structural aspect. Non-structural
measures that will be evaluated include
acquisition and removal of structures
and flood proofing of structures for
protection from potential future flood
damage, and changes of gate operating
procedures for Lake Travis. Structural
measures that will be evaluated could
include dry detention basins or
multipurpose reservoirs and of various
widths and depths and/or a
combination of these measures along
with non-structural alternatives.
Recreation measures that will be
evaluated for the enjoyment of residents
and visitors alike include multipurpose
trails and passive recreation features,
such as interpretive guidance and media
and picnic areas. Recreation measures
will be developed to a scope and scale
compatible with proposed flood damage
reduction measures without
significantly diminishing flood damage
benefits.
The Draft Programmatic
Environmental Impact Statement (PEIS)
for Flood Damage Reduction and
Ecosystem Restoration, Lower Colorado
River Basin, Colorado River, Texas
addressing the potential cumulative
effects of reasonably foreseeable
projects, including the Highland Lakes
Interim Feasibility Study was completed
in March 2005. The Final PEIS should
be completed around October 2005.
This EIS for the Highland Lakes will be
tiered to the PEIS for the Lower
Colorado River.
The public will be invited to
participate in the scoping process,
invited to attend public meetings, and
given the opportunity to review the EIS.
Release of the EIS for public comment
is scheduled for summer 2006. The
exact release date, once established, will
be announced in the local news media.
Future coordination with other
agencies and public scoping will be
conducted to ensure full and open
participation and aid in the
development of the EIS. All affected
Federal, state, and local agencies,
affected Indian tribes, and other
interested private organizations and
parties are hereby invited to participate.
Future coordination will also be
