# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The FEIS describes and analyzes a proposal for groundwater facilities in the Kane Springs Valley submitted by the Lincoln County Water District (LCWD). The FEIS addresses the proposal submitted by LCWD, an alternative alignment, and a no action alternative. Under the Proposed Action, the LCWD would develop and convey groundwater in Kane Springs Valley to private land for community development purposes in Coyote Springs Valley. The volume of water to be transported through the proposed facilities could be up to 5,000 acre-feet per year. 

The proposed project would be located in unincorporated portions of southwestern Lincoln County, Nevada, and would consist of a 13.2 mile pipeline, seven production wells, water storage tanks, a 12.5 kV transmission line, and a fiber optic line. 

                    On June 22, 2007, the BLM published the Notice of Availability for the Draft EIS for this project in the                     **Federal Register**                    . Nineteen comments were received from individuals, organizations, agencies and a tribal band. Specific comment responses are provided in the FEIS, and issues and concerns raised during the review are addressed in the FEIS.
