FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.
David Robinson, Central California Area
Office, Bureau of Reclamation, at the
CCAO general telephone number 916–
988–1707, e-mail:
HatchPass@mp.usbr.gov.
The
Nimbus Hatchery is located along the
lower American River approximately 1⁄4
mile downstream from Nimbus Dam in
Rancho Cordova, CA. The Hatchery is a
mitigation facility that was constructed
by Reclamation in 1955 to compensate
for the loss of spawning habitat for
Chinook salmon and steelhead trout
inundated by the construction of
Nimbus Dam. The Hatchery annually
produces 4 million fall-run Chinook
salmon smolts and 430,000 winter-run
American River steelhead yearlings. The
fish weir is needed to prevent adult
salmon from continuing upstream and
allows them to locate and enter the fish
ladder and hatchery.
CDFG has continuously operated and
maintained the Hatchery under contract
with Reclamation since it was originally
constructed in 1955. CDFG operates and
maintains all salmon and steelhead
hatcheries within the State of California
and is responsible for the management
of statewide fisheries resources. As
manager of the State fisheries resources,
CDFG is also responsible for
recommending and implementing
fishing regulations. One alternative
under consideration would result in
changes to the fishing opportunities
immediately downstream from Nimbus
Dam pursuant to CDFG Regulation
Section 2.35, ‘‘Taking Fish near Dams,
Screens, and Egg-taking Stations.’’
CDFG will also consider the potential
modification to the seasonal fishing
regulations between the Hatchery and
Nimbus Dam as part of the evaluation of
this alternative.
Background: The Project is needed
because the existing fish diversion
structure is aging, susceptible to
periodic significant damage from high
flows, and its operation requires annual
flow reductions for maintenance which
effect protected steelhead populations
in the river. Annual short-term flow
reductions are required to install the
weir at a time when steelhead are
rearing in the lower American River.
Flow reductions of longer duration are
periodically required to repair
significant flood damage to the existing
structure and scouring around its
foundation. This scouring destabilizes
the weir and creates large holes that
upstream migrant fish can pass through
avoiding the entrance into the hatchery
ladder.

Objectives: The primary objective of
the Project is to maintain a fully
functional system of collecting adult
fish sufficient to meet mitigation goals.
Secondary objectives are to minimize
operations and maintenance costs, do
away with the need to reduce river
flows, and improve public and worker
safety.
Alternatives: Reclamation has
evaluated a broad set of potential
solutions in a series of planning
evaluations beginning in the mid-1990s.
Two basic approaches to solving the
problems that were advanced through
the planning process include: (1)
Constructing a new fish diversion weir
with concrete foundation and air
bladder control gates and pickets; and
(2) the extension of the fish ladder
upstream to Nimbus Dam and removal
of the existing fish diversion weir. The
EIS/EIR will evaluate each of these
alternative approaches and a no action
alternative.
Special Assistance for Public Scoping
Meetings
If special assistance is required to
participate in the public meetings,
please contact Ms. Janet Sierzputowski
