SUMMARY: Pursuant to Section 102(2)(C)
of the National Environmental Policy
Act of 1969; the Council on

gives notice that the record of decision
(ROD) for the Final Environmental
Impact Statement (FEIS) for the Little
Wood River Irrigation District Gravity
Pressurized Delivery System, Blaine
County, Idaho is available. The ROD
was signed and made available via the
USDA NRCS Idaho Web site (https://

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Little
Wood River Irrigation District proposes
to convert the present open irrigation
canal delivery system that serves
farmland in the Little Wood River valley
surrounding Carey City, Blaine County,
Idaho, to a closed gravity pressurized
irrigation pipeline system. The Natural
Resources Conservation Service
prepared an Environmental Impact
Statement for the proposed project.
NRCS has selected Alternative 2—
Gravity Pressurized Irrigation Delivery
System with On-Farm Irrigation
Systems as the Preferred Alternative for
implementation. This Alternative
includes conversion of the present open
irrigation canal delivery system to a
closed gravity pressurized irrigation
pipeline system.
The purpose and need of this action
is to maximize the conservation and use
of irrigation water and the energy
required to irrigate all of the existing
cropland within the project area by
providing a reliable water supply,
reducing water losses due to seepage in
the existing canal delivery system and
providing economic stability to the local
area.
Three alternatives, including the No
Action Alternative, were fully
developed and analyzed in the FEIS to
address significant issues. The full range
of foreseeable environmental
consequences was assessed. Among the
alternatives considered the preferred
alternative best provides a combination
of limiting impacts and providing
needed enhancements.
