*Dear Interested parties and Trinity River enthusiasts,*


The Final Environmental Assessment/Initial Study (EA/IS) for the Bucktail
(River Mile 105.3-106.4) and Lower Junction City (River Mile 78.8-79.8)
Trinity River Channel Rehabilitation sites, including response to comment,
is now available.


The Trinity River Restoration Program (TRRP), with federal co-lead
agencies, the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and the U.S. Bureau of Land
Management, and with the California State lead agency, the North Coast
Regional Water Quality Control Board, have completed the Final Project
EA/IS that meets all National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), requirements. The document is
located at: http://www.trrp.net/2014/eais-bucktail-and-lower-junction-city/.


The Final EA/IS was updated to state the following:

   -
      - The TRRP will permit and construct the Lower Junction City Project
      in 2014 as designed
      - The Bucktail channel rehabilitation project will not be completed
      in 2014
      - The Bucktail channel rehabilitation project will not move the
      present boat ramp downstream of the Bucktail Bridge and will remove this
      design element from the project
      - The TRRP's intent is to implement the Bucktail channel
      rehabilitation project in coordination with construction of a
new Bucktail
      Bridge. The Bucktail channel rehabilitation project is currently being
      redesigned to address external public concerns and  internal design team
      technical recommendations
      - Once the Bucktail project is re-designed and analyzed,
      supplementary environmental review documents would be developed and
      circulated for review as needed


Have a great Easter-

Brandt
