Document Description
Bureau of Reclamation proposes to excavate soil to create about 50 acres of backwater channel and associated backwater habitat on a 149-acre portion of a vacant parcel. The backwater channel would be connected to the Colorado River by the construction of inlet and outlet water control structures. The area is currently used as an Off-Highway Vehicle recreation area. The proposed project would be carried out in the following four phases: Vegetation Clearing: Excavation and Construction: Establishment/Re-Vegetation; and Habitat Management, Operations, and Maintenance. The EA/MND is also available online at www.slc.ca.gov/info/CEQA.html.
