SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NMFS published a NOI in the Federal Register 
on September 12, 2016 (81 FR 62732) to prepare an EIS in accordance

impacts on the human environment resulting from the operation of 8 
salmon hatchery programs in the Puyallup-White River Basin and Minter 
Creek Basin in Washington State. NMFS hereby advises the public of the

and re-submitted with substantive changes since the NOI was published.

requirements of NEPA.
