Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
and Record of Decision. Because of the
significance of paleontological,
botanical, hydrological, and cultural
resources present within the CTA study
area and the need for additional public
input, the BLM is preparing a
Supplemental EIS. The BLM proposes to
establish a final boundary for the CTA.
This decision was not made in the 2004
Record of Decision. The CTA study area
is located in the northern portion of the
Las Vegas Valley. A defined final
boundary is needed to ensure protection
of sensitive resources, including fossils,
cultural resources, the natural
functioning of the wash, and endemic
plants on public lands available for
disposal within the CTA study area, in
accordance with applicable laws.
Six alternatives for boundaries are
analyzed, ranging from approximately
13,000 acres to less than 1,500 acres.
Alternative A, at 12,953 acres, includes
the fossil formation, sensitive cultural
and plant resources, active wash, the
adjacent alluvial fan, and a one mile
resource protection zone around
northern and eastern boundaries of the
Las Vegas Paiute reservation.
Alternative B, at 11,008 acres, includes
the fossil formation, sensitive cultural
and plant resources, active wash, and
the adjacent alluvial fan. Alternative B
is the BLM’s Preferred Alternative.
Alternative C, at 6,362 acres, includes
the fossil formation, sensitive cultural
and plant resources, active wash, and a
portion of the adjacent alluvial fan.
Alternative D, at 5,301 acres, includes
most of the fossil formation, the
sensitive cultural and rare plant
resources, and the active wash.
Alternative E, at 3,314 acres, includes
some of the fossil formation, the
sensitive cultural and rare plant
resources, and part of the active wash.
The No Action alternative, at 1,448
acres, includes the Tule Spring cultural
site and the 300-acre Eglington Preserve.
Scoping of the project occurred from
June 6 to August 20, 2007, and was
extended to September 4, 2007. A total
of 1,183 individuals submitted
comments. Comments received
pertained to a variety of broad
categories, including alternatives,
boundaries, management, and physical/
natural resources. Additional
stakeholder involvement has been
achieved through the BLM’s newsletters
that provided updates on the
Supplemental EIS process.
The Draft Supplemental EIS addresses
the following issues identified during
scoping: NEPA process (consultation/
coordination, proposal description,
alternatives, and connected actions/
cumulative impacts); social resources

(cultural resources, visual resources,
noise, land use, recreation,
transportation, and socioeconomic
resources); and physical/natural
resources (botanical resources, water
resources, paleontological resources,
and geologic/soil resources).
Maps of the CTA study area and the
alternatives being analyzed in the
Supplemental EIS are available at the
BLM Las Vegas Field Office. Please note
that public comments and information
submitted including names, street
addresses, and e-mail addresses of
persons who submit comments will be

personal identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
