Corps of Engineers

Joint Draft Environmental Impact

Statement (EIS)/Environmental Impact

Report (EIR)

AGENCY: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,

Sacramento District, DOD.

ACTION: Notice of intent.

SUMMARY: To prepare a joint draft

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)/

Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for

the proposed aggregate mining of

approximately 1250 acres of land within

the Morrison Creek Drainage Basin

north of Highway 16, Sacramento

County, California. The area evaluated

by the EIR/EIS is bounded roughly by

Kiefer Boulevard to the north, Excelsior

Road to the east, Jackson Road (Highway

16) to the south and Bradshaw Road to

the west.

ADDRESSES: U.S. Army Engineer

District, Sacramento, 1325 J Street,

Sacramento, California 95814–2922.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Ms. Karen Shaffer, (916) 557–5269.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: There are

three mining areas within the 1250 acre

study area. They are known as Aspen V

North, Aspen VI and Granite I. Teichert

Aggregates and Granite Construction

Company have each applied to the

Corps of Engineers for Department of

the Army permits pursuant to Section

404 of the Clean Water Act. These

applications are being evaluated jointly

because they are adjacent to one another

and propose to share planning and cost

of reclamation and mitigation. Teichert

proposes to impact 42.88 acres of

wetlands and other waters subject to

DOA jurisdiction on their Aspen VI site,

while Granite’s impacts amount to 16.16

acres of wetlands and other waters

subject to DOA jurisdiction on their

Granite I site. Aspen VI and Granite I,

combine for a total of 1061 acres in size

with a total of 59.04 acres of waters of

the United States being impacted. The

Teichert site known as Aspen V North

is approximately 184 acres in size with

no jurisdictional waters of the United

States. Presently, Aspen VI and Granite

I consist of relatively flat terrain with

Morrison Creek running through

roughly from north east to south west

and Mather Drain running through

roughly from north to south. Granite I

and Aspen VI are used for grazing and

Aspen V North is relatively flat and is

used for farming except in some areas

that have already been mined. Because

Aspen V North has no waters of the

United States and can continue to be

mined without a Department of the

Army permit, the applicants have

proposed to use the reclaimed pit as the

mitigation area for vernal pool creation.

In this way, the pools can be built on

the Aspen V North site as they are

impacted on the Aspen VI and Granite

I sites with less temporal loss. The

applicants proposed to reroute Mather

Drain and Morrison Creek into a bypass

channel that will be construed at the

present grade. Low flows and flood

flows will be directed to the pit floor

where the applicants propose to

mitigate for project impacts to seasonal

wetlands and creek channel. The pit

floor will also serve as a detention basin

for storm water during peak flows.

Alternatives

The alternatives being considered at

this time are:

a. Aggregate mining on site as

proposed by the applicants.

b. Downsizing mining operation on

site so as to avoid some waters of the

United States.

c. Alternative site location.

d. No action (no project alternative).

Significant Issues

The significant issues which have

been identified to date and which will

be analyzed in the report are:

a. The need for additional aggregate

material in Sacramento.

b. Impacts to wetlands and ability to

create vernal pools on a reclaimed pit

floor.

c. Impacts to threatened and

endangered species.

d. Impacts to wildlife.

e. Impacts to the hydrology of the

Morrison Creek drainage basin.

f. Need for flood storage on the

Morrison Creek drainage basin.

g. Impacts to water quality.

h. Impacts to traffic (alternative site

location).

i. Impacts to aesthetics.

j. Impacts to noise levels.

Other Environmental Review and

Consultation

Environmental review and

consultation as required by Sections 401

and 404 of the Clean Water Act, as

amended (33 U.S. Code 1341 and 1344);

the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act

(16 U.S. Code 661 et seq.); the National

Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as

amended (16 U.S. Code 470 et seq.); the

Endangered Species Act of 1973, as

amended (16 U.S. Code 1531 et seq.);

Executive Order 11990, ‘‘Protection of

Wetlands,’’ 24 May 1977; and other

applicable statutes or regulations will be

conducted concurrently with the EIR/

EIS review process.

Another joint draft EIR/EIS is being

prepared concurrently for the Morrison

Creek drainage basin south of Highway

16. This report will focus on the

following mining projects: Granite

Vineyard, Aspen III South, Aspen IV

South and Aspen V South. Both EIR/EIS

documents will evaluate impacts to the

entire Morrison Creek drainage basin

within cumulative impacts.

The Sacramento District of the U.S.

Army Corps of Engineers will issue a

30-day public notice, concurrently with

this notice, to initiate the scoping

process. The public notice will be sent

to all known, interested parties; and will

request that the reviewers provide

comments on the topical scope,

alternatives, and major issues to be

covered in the Draft EIR/EIS. We intend

to accomplish the scoping process in

this manner; however, if it is perceived

that this method is not adequate, the

need for a public scoping meeting will

be considered.

Schedule

We estimate the draft EIR/EIS will be

made available to the public in May

1995.

Questions concerning the proposed

action and Draft EIR/EIS should be

addressed directly to Ms. Karen Shaffer,

Regulatory Branch, U.S. Army Corps of

Engineers, 1325 J Street, Room 1444,

Sacramento, California 95814–2922,
