DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
Forest Service
Suspension of Public Comment Period
and Notice of Intent To Prepare
Supplemental Draft Environmental
Impact Statement: North Fork Eagle
Creek Wells Special Use Authorization
Forest Service, USDA.
Suspension of comment period/
corrected notice of intent.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The USDA Forest Service,
Lincoln National Forest, is suspending
the public comment period for a Draft
Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS)
for the North Fork Eagle Creek Wells
Special Use Authorization. As a result
of the Little Bear Fire occurring in the
project area, a supplemental DEIS will
be prepared considering changed
circumstances. The supplemental DEIS
will disclose potential impacts of a
proposed action to authorize, under a
new special use permit, the operation of
four municipal supply water wells
located on National Forest System (NFS)
land in the North Fork Eagle Creek
drainage. The new permit would be
authorized for up to 20 years, with
stipulations for frequent review and
verification of the permit terms and
conditions. These could occur as often
as every year but would occur at least
every 5 to 10 years. The new
authorization would add terms and
conditions to the permit reflecting
adaptive management strategies, which
respond both to the purpose and need
for action as well as to mitigate potential
adverse impacts to surface water and
groundwater resources from well
operations. The Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) published a
notice of availability (NOA) of the DEIS
in the Federal Register on May 25, 2012
[77–31355; EIS No. 20120161]. The
NOA provided for a public comment
period ending on July 9, 2012.
DATES: Due to extenuating
circumstances caused by the Little Bear
wildland fire, a supplemental DEIS will
be prepared considering changed
circumstances in the project area. At
this time there is no formal notice and
comment period that will provide the
commenter appeal rights, but comments
on these changed circumstances are
encouraged to aid completion of the
supplemental DEIS and will be most
beneficial if received by September 7,
2012. Comments from all parties
received or postmarked after September
7, 2012 will be considered to the extent
practicable. Once completed, the DEIS
and supplemental DEIS will be released
for a formal 45-day public comment

only maintains jurisdiction over NFS lands;
however, to fulfill its obligations under the
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
the Forest Service will analyze the entire
project area for direct, indirect and
cumulative effects. The proposed projects
would add approximately 70 acres of
traditional terrain and include approximately
70 acres of gladed terrain projects. Much of
the traditional terrain construction will
require tree removal for the area of the trails,
approximating 70 acres of removal, although
a more accurate quantity of tree removal will
be disclosed in the EIS as all proposed trails
may not necessitate complete tree removal.

the SUP boundary to include approximately
16 acres of the southern portion of the Jolly
Jug Pod.
5. Snowmaking—Expand snowmaking
coverage to include all new traditional trails
(not in any of the gladed areas) totaling
approximately 70 acres.
6. Roads and Utilities—Build new road

existing snowmaking infrastructure would

current method for The Lookout Facility. Onsite septic systems would accommodate
sewage deposal for the proposed Lookout
Facility and Challenge Mountain Facility.
