Title: Shasta Lake Water Resources Investigation EIS
Site: www.usbr.gov/mp/slwri/
Summary: The Shasta Lake Water Resources Investigation evaluates the potential of raising Shasta Dam to increase anadromous fish survival and water supply reliability while additionally increasing flood damage reduction, water quality, hydropower generation, and recreation opportunities. Reclamation previously completed a Final Environmental Impact Statement in July 2015 and a Draft Environmental Impact Statement in July 2013, each of which investigated the potential effects of enlarging Shasta Dam by 6.5 ft, 12.5 ft, and 18.5 ft. Reclamation has prepared a Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement to address new and updated information that has come available since the publication of the Final and Draft Environmental Impact Statements. The draft supplemental includes updated information on the potential impacts of the project to waters of the U.S., a revision of the wild and scenic river considerations for the McCloud River that refocuses on federal requirements, and updated modeling to reflect the operational changes to Shasta Dam in the 2019 Biological Opinions issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Marine Fisheries Service. The draft supplement was available for public comment August 6 2020 through close of business on September 21 2020. The draft supplement comment period was extended through close of business on October 5 2020.The final supplemental EIS was released on November 19 2020.
