B. State Water Project Facilities
The Department of Water Resources
operates and maintains the SWP, which
delivers water to agricultural and
municipal and industrial (M&I)
contractors in northern California, the
San Joaquin Valley, the Bay Area, the
Central Coast, and southern California.
• SWP water is stored and reregulated in Lake Oroville and released
into the Feather River, which flows into
the Sacramento River.
• SWP water flows in the Sacramento
River to the Delta and is exported from
the Delta at the Banks Pumping Plant.
The Banks Pumping Plant lifts the water
into the California Aqueduct, which
delivers water to the SWP contractors
and conveys water to the San Luis
Reservoir.
• The SWP also delivers water to the
Cross-Valley Canal, when the systems
have capacity, for CVP water service
contractors.
VI. Alternatives To Be Considered
The proposed action for the purposes
of NEPA will consider operational
components of the 2008 USFWS and the
2009 NMFS Reasonable and Prudent
Alternatives. These components address
continued operation of the CVP, in
coordination with the SWP, in a manner
intended to avoid jeopardizing
continued existence of federally listed
species or result in the destruction or
adverse modification of designated
critical habitat.
• We expect to analyze flow
management actions resulting from the
2008 USFWS Reasonable and Prudent
Alternative that affect:
(1) Protection of adult, juvenile, and
larval delta smelt; and
(2) Habitat improvements for delta
smelt growth and rearing.
• We expect to analyze flow
management actions resulting from the
2009 NMFS Reasonable and Prudent
Alternative that affect:
(1) Attraction and channel
maintenance flows;
(2) Reduction of thermal stress;
(3) Passage of fish at Red Bluff
Diversion Dam;
(4) Reduction of redd dewatering,
entrainment, and straying; and
(5) Reduction of negative hatchery
influences on natural populations.
The proposed action will not
consider:
• Structural changes prescribed in the
NMFS 2009 Reasonable and Prudent
Alternative that would require future
evaluations, environmental
documentation, and permitting; and
• Reasonable and Prudent Alternative
actions that would require future
studies.
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 226001
As required by NEPA, we will
develop and consider a proposed action
and a reasonable range of alternatives,
including a No Action Alternative.
Reasonable alternatives to the proposed
action may include physical changes or
changes in operations of CVP facilities.
Alternatives could affect all or various
components of the CVP, and may also
include actions that affect SWP
operations. We will engage with the
Department of Water Resources in
developing the proposed action and
alternatives. We will also consider
including in the alternative analysis
reasonable alternatives to the proposed
action identified through the scoping
process.
VII. Statutory Authority
NEPA [42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.] requires
that Federal agencies conduct an
environmental analysis of their
proposed actions to determine if the
actions may significantly affect the
human environment. In addition, as
required by NEPA, Reclamation will
analyze in the EIS the potential direct,
indirect, and cumulative environmental
effects that may result from the
implementation of the proposed action
and alternatives, which may include,
but are not limited to, the following
areas of potential impact:
a. Water resources, including
groundwater;
b. Land use, including agriculture;
c. Socioeconomics;
d. Environmental justice;
e. Biological resources, including fish,
wildlife, and plant species;
f. Cultural resources;
g. Water quality;
h. Air quality;
i. Soils, geology, and mineral
resources;
j. Visual, scenic, or aesthetic
resources;
k. Global climate change;
l. Indian trust assets
m. Transportation; and
n. Recreation.
VII. Request for Comments
The purposes of this notice are:
• To advise other agencies, CVP and
SWP water and power contractors,
affected tribes, and the public of our
intention to gather information to
support the preparation of an EIS;
• To obtain suggestions and
information from other agencies,
interested parties, and the public on the
scope of alternatives and issues to be
addressed in the EIS; and
• To identify important issues raised
by the public related to the development
and implementation of the proposed
action.
