Document Description
The fundamental purpose and overarching goal of the Prospect Island Tidal Habitat
Restoration Project is to restore tidal action to the interior of Prospect Island. The
proposal is intended to partially fulfill the 8,000 ac tidal habitat restoration
obligations of DWR contained within Reasonable and Prudent Alternative (RPA) 4 of
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Delta Smelt Biological Opinion (BiOp) for
long-term coordinated operations of the State Water Project (SWP) and the federal
Central Valley Project (CVP). Because restoration of tidal habitat would provide
access for salmonid rearing at Prospect Island, the Project would also be consistent
with RPA 1.6.1 of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Salmonid BiOp for
SWP /CVP operations.
