Document Description
The city of Palmdale adopted an EIR in 2009 that identified the environmental impacts associated with the development of the Upper Amargosa Project on approx 87 acres, within the city limits. The project would include: A 20-acre recharge facility, a 38-acre community area; a 22-acre native habitat conservation area; and 7 acres of open stream channel. The UAP remains the same as described in the 2009 EIR except for the turnout location and pipeline alignment. The 2009 EIR described the pipeline as being 2,975 lf, located north of Elizabeth Lake Rd. The revised aqueduct diversion pipeline alignment would be 5,302 lf and located south of Elizabeth Lake Rd. The revised aqueduct turnout location is in SWP pool 52 south of Elizabeth Lake Rd, rather than SWP Pool 51, north of Elizabeth Lake Rd.
