Document Description
The California Department of Water Resources (DWR) prepared a Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Lookout Slough Tidal Habitat Restoration and Flood Improvement Project (Project) pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which was certified by DWR on November 2, 2020. Subsequently, four lawsuits challenged the certification of the 2020 Final EIR. On January 5, 2023, the Contra Costa Superior Court (Court) dismissed all claims, save for one issue: that further analysis was required to evaluate the Project’s potential impact on recreational opportunities to fish from the shoreline, as addressed in Section IV.J, Recreation, under impact iii. In response, DWR prepared a Revised Final EIR for the Project, which was released for a 45-day public review period from June 1 through July 17, 2023. The Project’s Revised Final EIR focused exclusively on those portions of the analysis related to the Project’s potentially significant impacts on recreational opportunities to fish from the shoreline, and included revisions amplifying and clarifying the previous analysis, as directed by the Court.
