DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR 

Bureau of Reclamation 

[FES–07–10] 

Folsom Dam Safety and Flood Damage 

Reduction (DS/FDR) Action—

Sacramento, El Dorado, and Placer 

Counties, CA 

AGENCY: Bureau of Reclamation, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice of availability of the 

Final Environmental Impact Statement/ 

Environmental Impact Report (EIS/EIR). 

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Reclamation 

(Reclamation), the lead Federal agency; 

the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 

(Corps), a cooperating Federal agency; 

the Reclamation Board, the lead State 

agency; and the Sacramento Area Flood 

Control Agency (SAFCA), the local 

sponsor, have prepared a Final EIS/EIR 

for the Folsom DS/FDR Action. The 

Folsom DS/FDR proposed action 

includes features that address 

Reclamation’s DS objectives and the 

Corps’ FDR objectives jointly as well as 

features or increments that exclusively 

address DS, security, or FDR objectives 

and would be constructed by the 

respective agencies. The Final EIS/EIR 

contains responses to comments 

received on the Draft EIS/EIR. 

The Corps intends to adopt the Final 

EIS/EIR to satisfy the requirements of 

National Environmental Policy Act for 

the Joint Federal Project (JFP) 

component and other FDR features as 

appropriate. The Corps has prepared a 

Post Authorization Change (PAC) Report 

which documents recommended 

changes to the authorized Folsom 

Modifications and Folsom Dam Raise 

projects. 

A Notice of Availability of the Draft 

EIS/EIR was published in the Federal 

Register on Tuesday, November 28, 

2006 (71 FR 68837). The public review 

period on the Draft EIS/EIR ended on 

January 22, 2006. The public review 

period was extended via a press release 

to January 26, 2007. 

DATES: Any written comments on the 

Folsom DS/FDR Final EIS/EIR should be 

submitted on or before Monday, April 

30, 2007, to Mr. Shawn Oliver or Mrs. 

Becky Victorine at the addresses below. 

The State Reclamation Board will 

complete a California Environmental 

Quality Act (CEQA) Findings on the 

Final EIS/EIR within 30 days of the 

document’s release. No Federal decision 

will be made on the proposed action 

until 30 days after the release of the 

Final EIS/EIR. After this 30-day waiting 

period, Reclamation and the Corps will 

complete their respective Records of 

Decision (RODs) for the JFP, DS, and 

FDR objectives. The RODs and CEQA 

Findings will identify the recommended 

action to be implemented including any 

measures found necessary to avoid, 

reduce, or mitigate any significant 

adverse project effects. 

ADDRESSES: Send written comments on 

the Folsom DS/FDR Final EIS/EIR to Mr.

public review. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

Shawn Oliver, Bureau of Reclamation at 

the above address, or Mrs. Becky 

Victorine, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 

at the above address. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Folsom Facility consists of 12 structures 

(dams and dikes), which impound the 

American River forming the Folsom 

Reservoir. Both Reclamation and the 

Corps share in the responsibility of 

ensuring that the Folsom Facility is 

maintained and operated under their 

respective agency dam safety 

regulations and guidelines, as defined 

by Congress. As a part of their 

responsibilities, Reclamation and the 

Corps have determined that the Folsom 

Facility requires structural 

improvements to increase overall public 

safety above existing conditions by 

improving the facilities’ ability to 

reduce flood damages and address dam 

safety issues posed by hydrologic 

(flood), seismic (earthquake), and static 

(seepage) events. While these events 

have a low probability of occurrence in 

a given year, due to the large population 

downstream of Folsom Dam, modifying 

the facilities is prudent and required to 

improve public safety above current 

baseline conditions. 

The Folsom DS/FDR Final EIS/EIR 

discusses the project background, 

purpose and need, project description, 

and related projects. Responses to all 

comments received from interested 

organizations and individuals on the 

Draft EIS/EIR during the public review 

period and at the public hearing are 

addressed in the Final EIS/EIR. The 

Final EIS/EIR addresses the impacts of 

project construction on aquatic 

resources, terrestrial vegetation and 

wildlife, hydrology, water quality, 

groundwater, water supply, hydropower 

resources, socioeconomics, soils, 

minerals, geological resources, visual 

resources, agricultural resources, 

transportation and circulation, noise, 

cultural resources, land use, planning 

and zoning, recreation resources, public 

services and utilities, air quality, 

population and housing, public health 

and safety, environmental justice, and 

Indian trust assets. There is the 

potential for significant impacts to air 

quality, water quality, soils, visual 

resources, noise, transportation, 

terrestrial vegetation and wildlife, 

cultural resources, socioeconomics, and 

recreation including utilizing recreation 

areas for staging and construction 

purposes, re-routing recreation trails, 

and potential excavation of borrow 

material at Beal’s Point, Folsom Point, 

and Mooney Ridge. 

The Folsom DS/FDR proposed action 

considered by the lead agencies is the 

alternative that includes: 

• Joint Federal Project (JFP) auxiliary 

spillway with a six submerged tainter 

gate control structure and concrete-lined 

chute, stilling basin, and approach 

channel; 

• Potential 3.5-foot parapet concrete 

wall raise and replacement of three 

emergency spillway gates for FDR; 

• DS features including jet grouting 

the foundation of Mormon Island 

Auxiliary Dam (MIAD) for seismic 

stability; toe drains and full-height 

filters at the Left and Right Wing Dams,
