Modifications.

SUMMARY: On June 15, 2000, Ronald

Johnston, Program Director, Central

Utah Project Completion Act,

Department of the Interior (Interior),

signed the Finding of No Significant

Impact (FONSI) which documents the

selection of the Proposed Action

Modifications as presented in the Final

Environmental Assessment for the

Diamond Fork System Proposed Action

Modifications (Modifications EA).

Interior has determined that

implementing the modifications to the

Proposed Action Alternative described

in the Modifications EA will not have a

significant impact on the quality of the

human environment and that an

environmental impact statement is not

required. The Proposed Action

Alternative was described in the July

1999 Diamond Fork System Final

Supplement to the Final Environmental

Impact Statement (FES 99–25) (FS–

FEIS).

The FONSI also approves the Central

Utah Water Conservancy District

(CUWCD) proceeding with construction

of the Diamond Fork System, in

accordance with statutory and

contractual obligations. The following

features will be constructed as part of

the modifications to the Proposed

Action: (1) Sixth Water Connection to

Upper Diamond Fork Shaft, (2) Sixth

Water Shaft, (3) Upper Diamond Fork

Flow Control Structure, (4) Upper

Diamond Fork Tunnel, (5) Monks

Hollow Overflow Structure, (6)

Diamond Fork Creek Outlet, (7)

Diamond Fork Pipeline Extension, (8)

Connection to Diamond Fork Pipeline,

and (9) Access Road and Road

Reconstruction.

The Proposed Action Modifications

will be operated on an interim basis the

same as described in the FS–FEIS,

including the quantity and timing of

minimum streamflows and the

flexibility to other operational scenarios,

except for the discharge location of the

minimum streamflows into Diamond

Fork Creek. The potential for generating

hydroelectric power would remain the

same as described in the FS–FEIS.
