resource issues that could occur directly 

or indirectly with implementation of the 

proposed action and alternatives. 

Different strategies for avoiding, 

minimizing and mitigating the impacts 

of incidental take may also be 

considered. 

Environmental review of the EIR/EIS 

will be conducted in accordance with 

the requirements of NEPA (42 U.S.C. 

4321 et. seq.), its implementing 

regulations (40 CFR parts 1500–1508), 

other applicable regulations, and 

Service procedures for compliance with 

those regulations. This notice is being 

furnished in accordance with 40 CFR 

1501.7 and 1508.22 to obtain 

suggestions and information from other 

agencies and the public on the scope of 

issues and alternatives to be addressed 

in the EIR/EIS. The primary purpose of 

the scoping process is to identify 

important issues raised by the public 

related to the proposed action. Written 

comments from interested parties are 

invited to ensure that the full range of 

issues related to the permit application 

is identified. Comments will only be 

accepted in written form. All comments 

received, including names and 

addresses, will become part of the 

official administrative record and may 

be made available to the public. 

Our practice is to make comments, 

including names, home addresses, home 

phone numbers, and e-mail addresses of 

respondents, available for public 

review. Individual respondents may 

request that we withhold their names 

and/or homes addresses, etc., but if you 

wish us to consider withholding this 

information you must state this 

prominently at the beginning of your 

comments. In addition, you must 

present a rationale for withholding this 

information. This rationale must 

demonstrate that disclosure would 

constitute a clearly unwarranted 

invasion of privacy. Unsupported 

assertions will not meet this burden. In 

the absence of exceptional, 

documentable circumstances, this 

information will be released. We will 

always make submissions from 

organizations or businesses, and from 

individuals identifying themselves as 

representatives of or officials of 

organizations or businesses, available 

for public inspection in their entirety.
