of impacts. WAPA invites interested
stakeholders to suggest specific issues,
including possible mitigation measures,
within these general categories, or other
categories not included above, to be
considered in the EIS/EIR.
Public Participation: The purpose of
the scoping process is to identify issues,
concerns, possible alternatives, and
potential environmental impacts that
WAPA should analyze in the EIS/EIR.
There will be two scoping meetings, one
in the morning and one in the evening
on the date determined, to
accommodate and encourage public
participation. Each meeting will use
Zoom Webinar and will be virtual or
online consistent with statewide
restrictions with in-person meetings
because of the COVID–19 pandemic.
WAPA will also announce the public
scoping meetings in local news media
and by posting on the Project
environmental website at https://
www.wapa.gov/regions/SN/
environment/Pages/WRAP.aspx at least
14 days before the meetings.
The public will have the opportunity
to learn about the Project, view maps,
and present comments on the scope of
the WRAP EIS/EIR. Representatives
from WAPA and Trinity PUD will be
available to answer questions and
provide additional information to
meeting attendees.
In addition to providing comments at
the webinar public scoping meetings,
stakeholders may submit written
comments as described in the
ADDRESSES section above. WAPA will
consider all comments postmarked or
received during the public scoping
period identified in the DATES section
above. The public is also invited to
submit comments on the proposed
Project for WAPA’s consideration at any
time during the EIS process.
WAPA will coordinate with
appropriate Federal, State, and local
agencies, and potentially affected Native
American tribes during the preparation
of the EIS/EIR. Agencies with legal
jurisdiction or special expertise are
invited to participate as cooperating
agencies in preparation of the EIS, as
defined in 40 CFR 1501.8(a).1
Designated cooperating agencies have
responsibilities to support the NEPA
process, as specified in 40 CFR
1501.8(b).2 WAPA will contact tribes
and inform them of the planned EIS/
EIR. Government-to-government
consultations will be conducted in
