| 00-132 | Derby Dam Fish Passage, Newlands Project, Nevada | Notice | Pursuant to section 102(2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation), proposes to prepare an environmental document for the purpose of evaluating options to provide fish passage at Derby Dam, a facility of the Newlands Project located on the Truckee River approximately 20 miles east of Reno, Nevada. The environmental document will evaluate the effects of the construction and implementation of fish passage at Derby Dam. At present it is not clear whether the scope of the action and anticipated project impacts will require preparation of an environmental impact statement (EIS) instead of an environmental assessment (EA). However, to ensure the timely and appropriate level of NEPA compliance and to limit potential future delays to the project schedule, Reclamation is proceeding as if the project impacts would require preparation of an EA. Reclamation will reevaluate the need for an EIS after obtaining written and oral comments on the project scope, alternatives and environmental impacts and after Reclamation's evaluation of potential impacts of the proposed project. Reclamation will publish a notice of change if a decision is made to prepare an EIS rather than an EA. However, the scoping process to be conducted will suffice for either course of action. There are no known Indian Trust Asset or environmental justice issues associated with the proposed action. The project is designed to benefit fishes of both Pyramid Lake and the lower Truckee River and is anticipated to have a beneficial impact for this Indian Trust Asset. | 2000-01-05 | 2000 | 1 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/01/05/00-132/derby-dam-fish-passage-newlands-project-nevada | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-01-05/pdf/00-132.pdf | Interior Department; Reclamation Bureau | 253,446 | Pursuant to section 102(2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation), proposes to prepare an environmental document for the purpose of evaluating options to provide fish passage at Derby Dam, a... |
