The FEIS
describes and analyzes a proposal for
groundwater development and utility
rights-of-way in the Clover Valley and
Tule Desert hydrographic basins as
submitted by the Lincoln County Water
District (LCWD). The FEIS addresses the
proposal as submitted by LCWD; an
alternative alignment of pipelines,
power lines and facilities; and a no
action alternative. Under the proposed
action, BLM would issue rights-of-way
to LCWD for facilities to develop and
convey groundwater in Tule Desert and
Clover Valley hydrographic basins to
private land for community
development on the Lincoln County
Land Act tract (identified as the Toquop
Planning Area in the Lincoln County
Master Plan) north of Mesquite, Nevada.
The volume of water to be transported
through the proposed facilities could be
up to 24,000 acre-feet per year, as
authorized by the State of Nevada Water
Engineer for appropriation and use by
LCWD.
LCWD has applied to the BLM for
rights-of-way in accordance with the
Lincoln County Conservation,
Recreation, and Development Act of
2004, Title V of the Federal Land Policy
and Management Act of 1976 and 43
CFR Part 2800 for the following features:
the proposed project would be located
in unincorporated portions of
southeastern Lincoln County, Nevada,
and consist of approximately 47 miles of
a main transmission pipeline;
approximately 54 miles of lateral
pipelines; up to 30 production wells;
water storage tanks, booster stations,
and access roads; 138 kV, 22.8 kV, and
4.16 kV power lines and a power
substation; a natural gas pipeline;
underground telephone lines; and a
telemetry system utilizing a fiber optic
line.
On May 23, 2008, the BLM published
the Notice of Availability for the Draft
EIS for this project in the Federal
Register. Nineteen comments were
received from individuals,
organizations, agencies, and a Native
American tribe. Specific comment
responses are provided in the FEIS, and
issues and concerns raised during the
review are addressed in the FEIS.
