Water Project (SWP) water users. The
Draft Supplemental EIS/EIR addressed
changes to the regulatory and physical
environment that have occurred since
completion of the Final EIS/EIR in
January 2004 (69 FR 3599) and the
Records of Decision in March 2004 and
September 2004.
DATES: Reclamation will not make a
decision on the proposed action until at
least 30 days after release of the Final
Supplemental EIS/EIR. After the 30-day
waiting period, Reclamation will
complete a Record of Decision (ROD).
The ROD will state the action that will
be implemented and will discuss all
factors leading to the decision.
ADDRESSES: A compact disk of the Final
Supplemental EIS/EIR may be requested
from Ms. Sammie Cervantes, by writing
to Bureau of Reclamation, 2800 Cottage
Way, Sacramento, CA 95825; by calling
916–978–5189 (TDD 916–978–5608); or
by e-mailing scervantes@mp.usbr.gov.
The Final Supplemental EIS/EIR is also
accessible from the following Web sites:
https://www.mp.usbr.gov or https://
www.dwr.water.ca.gov. See
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for
locations where paper copies of the
Final Supplemental EIS/EIR are
available for public review.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms.
Sammie Cervantes, Bureau of
Reclamation, at 916–978–5189 (TDD
916–978–5608) or
scervantes@mp.usbr.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CVP
and SWP facilities that pump water
from the Delta can entrain and kill fish,
some of which are Federally and State
protected species. Reductions in CVP
and SWP pumping to protect these fish
species can reduce water supply
reliability. The EWA Program includes
Federal and State agencies making
environmentally beneficial changes in
the operation of the CVP and SWP for
Delta-dependent native fish species, and
acquiring and managing water assets to
pay back the water foregone by changes
to the operation of the CVP and SWP.
The Service, Reclamation, DWR, NMFS,
and DFG collectively manage the EWA
Program. The Service, NMFS, and DFG
are responsible for recommending
actions that protect and benefit Deltadependent fish populations.
Reclamation and DWR are responsible
for acquiring water assets from willing
sellers and storing, conveying, and
delivering the assets to the CVP and
SWP at appropriate times and locations.
The Draft Supplemental EIS/EIR
documented the direct, indirect, and
cumulative effects to the physical,
natural, and socioeconomic
environment that may result from the

purchase, storage, and conveyance of
EWA assets, and the actions taken to
benefit Delta-dependent fish
populations. The Draft Supplemental
EIS/EIR focused on an analysis of
impacts to fisheries in the Delta because
there have been multiple changes in the
regulatory and physical environment
since the ROD was signed in September
2004.

EIR are available for public review at the
