Corps of Engineers, Department of the 

Army 

Notice of Availability for the Final 

Environmental Impact Statement for 

the San Juan Creek Watershed/ 

Western San Mateo Creek Watershed 

Special Area Management Plan 

(SAMP), Orange County, CA 

AGENCY: Department of Defense, 

Department of the Army, Corps of 

Engineers, Los Angeles District 

Regulatory Branch. 

ACTION: Notice of Availability for a Final 

EIS. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers, Regulatory Branch has 

completed a Final EIS for the San Juan 

Creek Watershed/Western San Mateo 

Creek Watershed Special Area 

Management Plan (SAMP). The San 

Juan Creek Watershed/Western San 

Mateo Creek Watershed SAMP 

establishes three alternative permitting 

procedures that balance aquatic 

resource protection and reasonable 

economic development for the San Juan 

Creek Watershed and western San 

Mateo Creek Watershed. 

DATES: The Final EIS will be available 

to the public for 30 days from January 

12, 2007 to February 12, 2007. After the 

30 day availability period, a Record of 

Decision will be issued. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

Jae Chung, Project Manager, Regulatory 

Branch, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 

P.O. Box 532711, Los Angeles,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A 

previous Notice of Availability for this 

Final EIS was published on December 

28, 2006. Because there were portions of 

the Final EIS not provided to other 

federal agencies in advance of the 

Federal Register notice, the Notice of 

Availability is re-issued with a new 

public review period that ends on 

February 12, 2007. 

Under Section 404 of the Clean Water 

Act, the Corps is authorized to issue 

permits for activities that discharge 

dredged and/or fill materials into waters 

of the U.S., including wetlands, for 

roads, developments, utilities, and other 

activities. For the San Juan Creek and 

western San Mateo Creek Watersheds, 

the Corps is proposing a watershedbased SAMP to balance aquatic resource 

protection and reasonable economic 

development. The SAMP is an 

improvement over the current 

incremental case-by-case approach, 

which does a less effective job of taking 

a watershed perspective of aquatic 

resources and considering the needs of 

future permit applicants. The SAMP 

involves characterizing aquatic resource 

conditions and processes through the 

watershed, establishing alternative 

permitting procedures more appropriate 

for the given aquatic resources in the 

watershed, and developing a 

coordinated aquatic resources 

management framework. 

The Draft EIS was made available to 

the public on November 21, 2005. The 

Corps accepted written comments until 

January 16, 2006, and accepted oral 

comments in a public hearing dated 

December 6, 2006. The Corps received 

ten written comments throughout the 

comment period and two oral comments 

at the public hearing. 

The Final EIS is available to the 

public at the reference desks at the 

following local libraries: Mission Viejo 

Library, 100 Civic Center, Mission Viejo, 

CA 92691; San Clemente Library, 242
