SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
˜
Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians (Tribe)
has requested the BIA to acquire 34
parcels totaling 534.91± acres of land
currently held in fee by the Tribe into
trust, of which the Tribe proposes to
develop approximately 55 acres into a
destination hotel/casino complex. The
Tribe proposes to relocate its existing
casino, which presently resides on trust
lands, to the project site. In addition to
the fee-to-trust action and casino
relocation, the proposed action also
includes the development of a 300-room
hotel, casino, restaurants, retail
establishments, a convention center, an
events arena, and a spa and fitness
center, within a 729,500± square-foot
complex. The proposed developments
also include a Tribal fire station, and a
12-pump gas station with a 6,000
square-foot convenience store.
Approximately 300 acres (56 percent)
of the project site is incorporated in the
City of San Jacinto, California, while the
remainder is within unincorporated
Riverside County, California. The
proposed hotel and casino complex
would be generally located at the
intersection of Soboba Road and Lake
Park Drive and abut the existing Soboba
Springs Country Club. Lake Park Drive
may or may not be realigned as part of
the proposed action contingent upon
consultation with the City of San
Jacinto.
The BIA, serving as the lead agency
for compliance with the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA),
published a Notice of Intent (NOI) to
prepare the EIS for the proposed action
in the Federal Register on December 14,
2007. The EPA and the City of San
Jacinto have accepted invitations to be
cooperating agencies, as entities having
jurisdiction by law or special expertise
relevant to environmental issues.
BIA held a public scoping meeting on
January 8, 2008, at the Hemet Public
Library in Hemet, California. From that
scoping meeting, a range of project
alternatives were developed and
subsequently analyzed in the DEIS,
including: (1) Proposed Action A—
Hotel/Casino Complex with
Realignment of Lake Park Drive; (2)
Proposed Action B—Hotel/Casino
Complex without Realignment of Lake
Park Drive; (3) Reduced Hotel/Casino
Complex; (4) Hotel and Convention
Center (No Casino Relocation); (5)
Commercial Enterprise (No Casino or
Hotel); and (6) No Action alternative.
