scoping process which guides the
development of the supplemental
environmental impact statement.
Comments regarding the revised

Early Notice of Importance of Public
Participation in Subsequent
Environmental Review
A draft supplemental environmental
impact statement will be prepared after
consideration of responses to this
scoping and completion of the requisite
cumulative effects analysis. The
comment period on the draft
supplemental environmental impact
statement will be 45 days from the date
the Environmental Protection Agency
publishes the notice of availability in
the Federal Register.
It is important to give reviewers
notice of several court rulings related to
public participation in the
environmental review process. First,
reviewers of the draft supplemental
environmental impact statement must
structure their comments so they are
meaningful and alert the agency to the
reviewer’s position and contentions.
Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corp. v.
NRDC, 435 U.S. 519, 553 (1978). Also,
environmental objections that could be
raised at the draft supplemental
environmental impact statement stage,
but that are not raised until after
completion of the final supplemental
environmental impact statement, may
be waived or dismissed by the courts.
City of Angoon v. Hodel, 803 F.2d 1016,
1022 (9th Cir. 1986) and Wisconsin
Heritages, Inc. v. Harris, 490 F. Supp.
1334, 1338 (E.D. Wis. 1980). It is very
important that those interested in the
cumulative effects analysis for the
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Meadow Face Stewardship Pilot Project
participate by the close of the 45-day
comment period on the draft
supplemental environmental impact
statement so that substantive comments
and objections are made available to the
Forest Service at a time when it can
meaningfully consider them and
respond to them in the final
supplemental environmental impact
statement.
To assist the Forest Service in
completing the final supplemental
environmental impact statement,
comments on the draft supplemental
environmental impact statement will
need to be as specific as possible. It is
also helpful if comments refer to
specific pages or chapters of the draft
statement. Reviewers may wish to refer
to the Council on Environmental
Quality Regulations for implementing
the procedural provisions of the
National Environmental Policy Act at 40
CFR 1503.3 in addressing these points.
Comments received in response to
this scoping notice as well as comments
received on the subsequent
Supplemental Environmental Impact
Statement, including the names and
addresses of those who comment, will
be considered part of the public record
on this proposal and will be available
for public inspection.
