The SEIS is intended to provide additional analysis on the existing condition and potential effects of proposed treatment activities on soils, along with unit-specific mitigation requirements to protect and improve soils conditions in these units. In addition, we are taking this opportunity to provide more information wildlife issues and cumulative effects. We expect to have a draft SEIS available for public review and comment in February, 2007, and a Final SEIS in April, 2007. The comment period for the Draft SEIS will be 45 days from the date the EPA publishes the notice of availability in the Federal Register. The Forest Service believes it is important at this early stage to give reviewers notice of several court rulings related to public participation in the environmental review process. First, reviewers of draft supplemental environmental impact statements must structure their participation in the environmental review of the proposal so that it is meaningful and alerts an agency to the reviewer’s position and contentions. Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corp. v. NRDC, 435 U.S. 519, 533 (1978). Also, environmental objections that could be raised at the Draft SEIS stage but that are not raised until after completion of the Final SEIS (Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement) may be waived or dismissed by the courts. Wisconsin Heritages, Inc. v. Harris, 490 F. Sup. 1334, 1338 (E.D. Wis. 1980). Because of these court rulings, it is very important that those interested in this proposed action participate by the close of the 45 day comment period so that substantive comments and objections are made available to the Forest Service at a time when it can meaningfully consider and respond to them in the Final SEIS. 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.
