habitat elements, increasing shoreform
diversity, establishing areas of estuarine
habitat, increasing floodplain habitat
and connectivity, restoring small
lagoons and estuaries, increasing the
amount of submerged, emergent, and
riparian vegetation, replenishing and
protecting beach sediments, and
improving tidal exchange. If the
proposed action were approved, initial
construction could begin in 2014.
2. Restoration Alternatives: Three
programmatic restoration alternatives
are currently being considered and
evaluated in the environmental impact
statement. The No Action alternative, as
required by NEPA and SEPA, would
include various agencies and groups
continuing to implement small-scale
restoration projects within existing
frameworks without the implementation
of this Corps of Engineers and
Washington Department of Fish and
Wildlife project. Continued
implementation of restoration projects
would focus on reconnecting isolated
habitat elements, localized shoreline
revegetation, restoration of estuary
features and other discrete projects as
real estate and funding allows. The
second alternative is to pursue
restoration of Puget Sound nearshore
ecosystem processes using physical
actions to remove or mitigate barriers to
habitat forming processes and/or create
habitats that have been lost as a result
of those barriers. Under this alternative,
plans may be formulated, including
strategic restoration, which uses change
analysis data comparing current and
historic conditions as a means to
identify candidate restoration sites
based on criteria established by an
interdisciplinary team, as well as
stakeholders. The third alternative
focuses on non-structural means to
restore nearshore processes in Puget
Sound. This non-structural alternative
would include actions such as
education, regulation, and changes in
land-use policy. These three alternatives
are not final and may not be analyzed
in the final EIS, as they may change
and/or new alternatives may develop
during the scoping and NEPA process.
3. Scoping and Public Involvement:
Public involvement will be sought
during the study in accordance with
NEPA and SEPA procedures. Public
meetings will be held at the beginning
of the NEPA process to scope the efforts
that will be undertaken to prepare the
draft PEIS. The objectives of the public
meetings will be to clarify issues of
major concern, identify information that
might be needed to analyze and evaluate
impacts, obtain public input on the
range and acceptability of approaches
and provide further definition of

alternatives. This notice of intent
formally commences the joint scoping
process under NEPA and SEPA. As part
of the scoping process, all affected
Federal, state, and local agencies, Native
American tribes, and interested private
organizations, including environmental
interest groups, are invited to comment
on the scope of the draft PEIS.
Comments are requested concerning
project alternatives, mitigation
measures, probable significant
environmental impacts, and permits or
other approvals that may be required.
To date, the following impact areas have
been identified and will be analyzed in
depth in the draft PEIS: (1) Marine
mammals, fish, and invertebrates and
their habitat, (2) sediment supply, (3)
wetlands and estuaries, (4) submerged,
emergent, and riparian vegetation, (5)
wildlife, (6) land use, (7) public safety,
and (8) hydrologic connectivity. The
environmental review process will be
comprehensive and will integrate and
satisfy the requirements of NEPA
(Federal), SEPA (Washington State), and
other relevant Federal, state, and local
environmental laws. The public scoping
period will commence on October 26,
2009 in conjunction with the first
scoping meeting and will extend
throughout the development of the joint
NEPA/SEPA PEIS. Four scoping
meetings will be held throughout the
Puget Sound region from 4 p.m. to 7
p.m. The meeting dates and locations
are as follows:
October 26: Highline Community
College, 2400 S. 240th St., Des Moines,
WA 98198.
October 28: The chapel at Fort
Worden State Park, 200 Battery Way,
Port Townsend, WA 98368.
November 3: Lacey Community
Center, 6729 Pacific Avenue SE., in the
Woodland Creek Community Park,
Lacey, WA 98503.
November 10: Skagit Station, 105 E.
Kincaid, Mount Vernon, WA 98273.
All Federal, State, and local agencies,
Native American Tribes, other
interested private organizations, and the
general public are invited to participate.
Public comments will be considered in
development of the draft PEIS. The
formal public comment period will
extend until December 10, 2009.
4. Other Environmental Review,
Coordination, and Permit Requirements:
Other environmental review,
coordination, and permit requirements
include preparation of a Clean Water
Act, Section 404(b)(1) evaluation by the
Corps, and consultation among the
Corps, State of Washington, U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service, and National
Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration per Section 7 of the
