measures and will be analyzed in the 

EIS. These include water quality, 

anadromous fish, cultural resources, 

and socio-economics. The Corps expects 

other resource concerns to be identified 

during the scoping process. 

The EIS will address measures, 

alternatives, and impacts on a 

programmatic level, but will not address 

site-specific actions. However, the EIS 

will present the coordination and 

environmental review steps the Corps 

will take with regard to subsequent sitespecific actions. 

The Corps currently anticipates 

conducting public scoping for this EIS 

in early 2006. The exact dates, times, 

and locations of these meetings have not 

yet been set. The Corps will publicize 

this information once the meeting 

arrangements have been made. The 

Corps invites affected Federal, state, and 

local agencies, affected Native American 

tribes, and other interested 

organizations and persons to participate 

in the development of the EIS. The 

Corps will also invite input from the 

local, interagency sediment 

management group formed under the 

Northwest Regional Dredging Team. 

The draft EIS is currently scheduled 

to be available for public review in fall 

2008. The final EIS is currently 

scheduled to be available for public 

review in fall 2009.
