PUBLIC NOTICE OF THE AVAILABILITY OF THE NATURAL COMMUNITIES CONSERVATION PLAN 1HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT! ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on March 4, 2010 the San Diego County Water Authority (Water Authority) issued a Draft Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Impact Statement (EIRIEIS) for the proposed Natural Communities Conservation Plan/Habitat Conservation Plan (NCCP/HCP) for public review and comment. The Water Authority and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) are Co-Lead Agencies for the preparation of the EIRJEIS to assess the environmental effects related to implementation of the draft NCCP/HCP (Plan). The Water Authority’s Proposed Action is approval of the Plan and execution of an associated implementing agreement. The Service’s Proposed Action is the execution of the implementing agreement and issuance of an incidental take permit under section 10(a)(l)(B) of the federal Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. The EIR/EIS has been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and State CEQA Guidelines (CCR Title 14, §l5082(a), 15103, and 15375); the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and its implementing regulations (40 CFR, Section 1500 et seq.); the Service’s Procedures for Implementing NEPA; and with other appropriate federal laws and regulations, policies, and procedures of the Service for compliance with those regulations. As a Responsible Agency under CEQA, the California Department of Fish and Game will execute the implementing agreement and issue a Natural Communities Conservation Plan Act (NCCPA) Section 2835 permit. Documents available for public review and comment are the EIR/EIS and the draft Plan with Appendices (Appendix B of the EIRIEIS), which includes the draft Implementing Agreement (Appendix A of the Plan).

The purpose of an EIRJEIS is to provide decision makers, public agencies, and the general public with an objective and informative document that facilitates a basic understanding of the Proposed Action and fully discloses the environmental effects associated with implementing the Proposed Action and its alternatives, including direct, indirect, short-term, long-term, and cumulative environmental effects. In addition, the EIRJEIS identifies feasible mitigation measures to reduce or eliminate those effects, and adverse impacts determined to be significant after mitigation, where applicable.

The Water Authority and Service have established a 90-day public review period, beginning on March 4, 2010, to solicit comments and input on the Draft EIR/EIS. All written comments on the adequacy of the Draft EIR/EIS, including the draft Plan and Appendices, must be submitted to the contact listed below by no later than June 3, 2010.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on March 4, 2010 the San Diego County Water Authority (Water Authority) issued a Draft Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Impact Statement (EIRJEIS) for the proposed Natural Communities Conservation Plan/Habitat Conservation Plan (NCCP/HCP) for public review and comment. The Water Authority and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) are Co-Lead Agencies for the preparation of the EIRIEIS to assess the environmental effects related to implementation of the draft NCCP/HCP (Plan). The Water Authority’s Proposed Action is approval of the Plan and execution of an associated implementing agreement. The Service’s Proposed Action is the execution of the implementing agreement and issuance of an incidental take permit under section 10(a)(1)(B) of the federal Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. The EIRJEIS has been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and State CEQA Guidelines (CCR Title 14, §15082(a), 15103, and 15375); the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and its implementing regulations (40 CFR, Section 1500 et seq.); the Service’s Procedures for Implementing NEPA; and with other appropriate federal laws and regulations, policies, and procedures of the Service for compliance with those regulations. As a Responsible Agency under CEQA, the California Department of Fish and Game will execute the implementing agreement and issue a Natural Communities Conservation Plan Act (NCCPA) Section 2835 permit. Documents available for public review and comment are the EIRJEIS and the draft Plan with Appendices (Appendix B of the EIRIEIS), which includes the draft Implementing Agreement (Appendix A of the Plan).

The purpose of an EIRIEIS is to provide decision makers, public agencies, and the general public with an objective and informative document that facilitates a basic understanding of the Proposed Action and fully discloses the environmental effects associated with implementing the Proposed Action and its alternatives, including direct, indirect, short-term, long-term, and cumulative environmental effects. In addition, the EIR/EIS identifies feasible mitigation measures to reduce or eliminate those effects, and adverse impacts determined to be significant after mitigation, where applicable.

The Water Authority and Service have established a 90-day public review period, beginning on March 4, 2010, to solicit comments and input on the Draft EIRIEIS. All written comments on the adequacy of the Draft EIRJEIS, including the draft Plan and Appendices, must be submitted to the contact listed below by no later than June 3, 2010. g ecjara Filed per Bill Tippets, Principal Water Resources Specialist R R.C. 21152 San Diego County Water Authority POSTED 4677 Overland Avenue San Diego, CA 92123-1233 MAR J1 201g
