# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

This FSEIS was prepared to describe the potential environmental effects of construction and operation of flood control facilities encompassing private and public lands within the Las Vegas Valley and Boulder City by the Clark County Regional Flood Control District for the next ten-year period. Due to changes in Federal regulations, regional growth, flooding history, and CCRFCD project changes and objectives that have occurred since 1991, this FSEIS was also prepared for the CCRFCD's Master Plan to update the 1991 FEIS. This document also assesses impacts associated with the implementation of the Master Plan and subsequent updates. 

The changing needs and interests of the public and the growth within the Las Vegas Valley necessitates a revision to the Flood Control Master Plan FEIS. Preliminary issues and management concerns have been identified by the BLM and CCRFCD, their consultant, and other agencies, and represent the BLM's current information on existing issues and management concerns. The major issue themes that will be addressed in the SEIS include: Impacts to surface water hydrology and water quality; protection of Federally-listed species, State-listed species, and BLM sensitive species; minimizing impacts to air quality; minimizing visibility impacts; balancing conflicting and compatible land uses; protection of cultural and paleontological resources; cumulative impacts of the project; and the creation of a new project-specific analysis procedure for future flood control facilities.
