Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 83 / Monday, May 1, 2006 / Notices
construction by Congress in 1965.
Additional studies and a preliminary
draft EIS were prepared in the 1970s. In
1980, prior to public review of the EIS,
the local sponsor decided not to
continue sponsoring the project. In
2000, the River Valley Regional Water
District identified themselves as a
willing sponsor and requested that the
Corps of Engineers reevaluate the
project. The proposed Pine Mountain
Dam Project is being undertaken by
USACE, Little Rock District under the
direction of the U.S. Congress. A study
will be conducted consisting of major
hydraulics and hydrologic
investigations, economic analyses,
alternative development and related
analyses in conjunction with the EIS.
2. Comments/Scoping Meeting:
Interested parties are requested to
express their views concerning the
proposed activity. The public is
encouraged to provide written
comments in addition to or in lieu of
oral comments at scoping meetings. To
be most helpful, scoping comments
should clearly describe specific
environmental topics or issues, which
the commentator believes the document
should address. Oral and written
comments receive equal consideration.
Scoping meetings will be held with
government agencies and the public in
the spring/summer of 2006 in Crawford
County, AR. The location, time, and
date will be published at least 14 days
prior to each scoping meeting.
Comments received as a result of this
notice and the news releases will be
used to assist the District in identifying
potential impacts to the quality of the
human or natural environment. Affected
local, state, or Federal agencies, affected
Indian Tribes, and other interested
private organizations and parties may
participate in the scoping process by
forwarding written comments to (see
ADDRESSES). Interested parties may also
request to be included on the mailing
list for public distribution of meeting
announcements and documents.
4. Alternatives/Issues: The EIS will
evaluate the effects of the Pine
Mountain Dam and Lake, other practical
alternatives, and other identified
concerns. Anticipated significant issues
to be addressed in the EIS include
impacts on: (1) Flooding, (2) water
supply, (3) recreation and recreation
facilities, (4) stream hydraulics, (5) fish
and wildlife resources and habitats, and
(6) other impacts identified by the
Public, agencies or USACE studies.
5. Availability of the Draft EIS: The
Draft EIS is anticipated to be available
for public review in early 2009 subject
to the receipt of federal funding.
