through the Bureau of Reclamation

Department of Fish and Game (CDFG)
intend to prepare an EIS/EIR. The
Department and CDFG will conduct
public scoping meetings to solicit
comments concerning the issues,
alternatives, and analyses to be
considered in the evaluation of whether
to remove four dams on the Klamath
River pursuant to the terms of the
Klamath Hydroelectric Settlement
Agreement (KHSA). Section 3.3.1 of the
KHSA states: ‘‘Based upon the record,
environmental compliance and other
actions described in Section 3.2, and in
cooperation with the Secretary of
Commerce and other Federal agencies as
appropriate, the Secretary shall
determine whether, in his judgment, the
conditions of Section 3.3.4 have been
satisfied, and whether, in his judgment,
Facilities Removal (i) will advance
restoration of the salmonid fisheries of
the Klamath Basin, and (ii) is in the
public interest, which includes but is
not limited to consideration of potential
impacts on affected local communities
and Tribes.’’
In light of this potential determination
by the Secretary of the Interior
(Secretary) pursuant to the KHSA, the
public and agencies are invited to
comment on the scope of the EIS/EIR
and potential alternatives including, but
not limited to: (1) How other potential
actions within the KHSA should be
analyzed in this EIS/EIR, and (2) the
nature and extent to which the potential
environmental impacts of implementing
the Klamath Basin Restoration
Agreement (KBRA) should be analyzed
in this EIS/EIR.
DATES: Written comments on the scope
of the EIS/EIR and potential alternatives
to be analyzed are requested within 30
days of the publication of this notice.
Oral comments will also be accepted
during the public scoping meetings.
Please see the SUPPLEMENTARY

meeting dates and locations.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Conflicts over water and other natural
resources in the Klamath Basin between
conservationists, tribes, farmers,
fishermen, and State and Federal
agencies have existed for decades. In
particular, several developments
affecting the Klamath Basin have
occurred in the last several years. These
developments include:
—In 2001, water deliveries to irrigation
contractors to Reclamation’s Klamath
Project were substantially reduced.
—In 2002, returning adult salmon
suffered a major die-off.
—In 2006, the commercial salmon
fishing season was closed along 700
miles of the West Coast to protect
weak Klamath River stocks.
—In 2010, due to drought conditions,
the project is forecasting a curtailment
of deliveries that could result in the
potential short-term idling of
farmland and increased groundwater
pumping.
—In 2010, the c’waam (Lost River
suckers) fishery for the Klamath
Tribes has been closed for the 24th
year, limiting the Tribes to only a
ceremonial harvest.
Since 2003, the United States has
spent over $500 million in the Klamath
Basin for irrigation, fisheries, National
Wildlife Refuges, and other resource
enhancements and management actions.
Consequently, the United States, the
States of California and Oregon, the
Klamath, Karuk, and Yurok Tribes,
Klamath Project Water Users, and other
Klamath River Basin stakeholders
negotiated the KBRA and the KHSA
(including the Secretarial
Determination) to resolve long-standing
disputes between them regarding a
broad range of natural resource issues.
The agreements are intended to result in
effective and durable solutions which:
(1) Restore and sustain natural fish
production and provide for full
participation in ocean and river harvest
of fish species throughout the Klamath
Basin; (2) establish reliable water and
power supplies which sustain
agricultural uses, communities, and
National Wildlife Refuges; and (3)
contribute to the public welfare and the
sustainability of all Klamath Basin
communities. It is the conclusion of the
United States that in order to reach
these goals, both agreements must be
authorized and implemented.
Ongoing programs that may be
expanded include habitat restoration
and fish population monitoring
