Cachuma Project Contract Renewal,

AGENCY: Bureau of Reclamation,

ACTION: Notice of availability on the

final environmental impact statement/

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of

Continued

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FEIS/

FEIR considers the effects of renewing

the Cachuma Project Contract under

which water service has been provided

to the member units. The original

Cachuma Project Contract (No. I75r–

1802) was executed on September 12,

1949, for irrigation, and municipal and

industrial purposes under the

provisions of section 9(c)(2) and 9(e) of

the 1939 Reclamation Project Act. The

authority for contract renewal is

pursuant to the Act of July 2, 1956, 70

Stat. 483, and the Act of June 21, 1963,

77 Stat. 68, requiring the Secretary of

the Department of the Interior, upon

request, to renew long-term contracts.

The Cachuma Project has been the

principal water supply for the majority

of the member units since initial

deliveries began in 1955. These member

units include the City of Santa Barbara,

Goleta Water District, Montecito Water

District, Summerland Water District,

Carpinteria County Water District, and

the Santa Ynez River Water

Conservation District, Improvement

District No. 1. The original Cachuma

Project Contract had a term of 40 years

and expired on May 14, 1995.

A Phase I Renewal Contract was

executed on April 25, 1995, for

purposes of continuing the rights and

obligations under the original Contract

until April 15, 1996, to allow the

contract renewal negotiation process to

be completed. A proposed Cachuma

Project Long-Term Renewal Contract

was made available to the public for a

60-day review period beginning

November 14, 1995.

The proposed Cachuma Project Longterm Renewal Contract is a water service

contract with a term of 25 years. It will

be retroactively effective to extend from

May 15, 1995, through September 30,

2020, even though the contract requires

repayment of the remaining Cachuma

Project capital costs within 20 years.

The FEIS/FEIR evaluates several

alternatives, including the no action

alternative, and also describes the

existing environment and

environmental consequences of contract

renewal. The FEIS/FEIR considers the

following issues: environmental

improvement and restoration with

respect to biological resources,

including fisheries, wildlife, and

riparian vegetation, surface water

hydrology, groundwater hydrology,

flood control, water supply and

demand, water pricing and delivery

practices, increased operational

efficiency, increased conservation,

conjunctive use, water exchanges and

transfers, recreational enhancement and

land use policies, agriculture,

socioeconomic conditions, cultural

resources, and Indian Trust Assets.

The terms and conditions of the

proposed Cachuma Long Term Renewal

Contract represents the lead agencies’

preferred alternative. It combines

features of the original Contract with

higher water rates and a ‘‘renewal fund’’

that may be used for various

environmental restoration purposes.

Relative to the ‘‘no action’’ alternative,

there are no significant environmental,

socioeconomic, or agricultural impacts

under the proposed contract/preferred

alternative, and current operations of

the Cachuma Project are unchanged. In

addition, there will be opportunities to

restore riparian and other habitats along

the Santa Ynez River using the renewal

fund. Therefore, no mitigation measures

are required for renewal of the Cachuma

Project Contract.

The Santa Ynez Indian Reservation,

the Southern California Area Office of

the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), and

the Sacramento Area Office of the BIA

have been contacted by Reclamation

regarding Indian Trust Assets (ITAs)

that may be affected by the proposed

action. No potentially affected ITAs

have been identified by the BIA.

The Draft EIS/EIR (DEIS/DEIR) was

issued November 16, 1994. Responses to

comments received from interested

organizations and individuals on the

DEIS/DEIR are addressed in the FEIS/

FEIR. No decision will be made on the

proposed action until 30 days after the

release of the FEIS/FEIR. After the 30-

day waiting period, Reclamation will

complete a Record of Decision (ROD).

The ROD will state the action that will

be implemented and will discuss all

factors leading to the decision.

Dated: December 8, 1995.

Acting Regional Director.
