Individualcommentletters Appendix A INDIVIDUAL COMMENT LETTERS California Department of Fish and Game December 2011 Suction Dredge Permitting Program Project 9.005 Final Subsequent Environmental Impact Report 022811_Graham From: Tom Graham <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Date: 2/28/2011 5:57 PM Subject: Suction Dredging in California waters Dear Mark; I am glad that you guys have finally finished this EIR and are moving forward with the permitting process. I am 73 years old and have been fishing the Northern California waters for at least sixty years. On most of the rivers that run down the western slope of the Sierras, especially the ones where the flow is controlled by dams, it is important to promote suction dredging because the seasonal peak flows are often insufficient to remove the slit that clogs the gravel beds. The clean gravel beds left behind by the dredgers provide optimum natural conditions for Salmon and Trout spawning. I would like to see you guys permit larger dredges in those waters above 600 ft elevation where most of the spawning takes place. Keep up the good work. Tom Graham (415) 897-0220 022811_Lague From: roaring camp <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Date: 2/28/2011 10:57 AM Subject: Roaring Camp in Amador County Mr Stopher As I read the report on suction dregdging, I understand that the Mokelumne River where Roaring Camp is located would be open to dredging throughout the year. Could you please check this and advise me on this issue. Thank you Kim Lague Roaring Camp P.O. Box 278 Pine Grove, Ca 95665 Amador County 209 296-4100 022811_Lewis From: Marq Lewis <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Date: 2/28/2011 2:28 PM Subject: Section 228 and 228.5. Suction Dredging I think the restriction of 6 locations to dredge is not fair. I am not always shure where I am going to go. I can only list counties, but even that limits where I can go. Having the dredge pump make and model in the permit is also unfair. This limits my permit to that specific equipment. I may be demoing someones dredge hence would not be on permit. Also if I get a different pump I have to update my permit, which is not easy where I live.

Within that I would think that the following would be part of each county decision: • Tribal treaty impact, • fisheries impact, • distance to fisheries impact, • dredge size restrictions, • settling pond requirements, • high bank exemptions, • remote location exemptions, • calendar restrictions, • lottery permit awards, • rotating tributary calendars among many others. Alternatively a drainage by drainage evaluation might also be considered. Thanks for taking and reading this email.

On most of the rivers that run down the western slope of the Sierras, especially the ones where the flow is controlled by dams, it is important to promote suction dredging because the seasonal peak flows are often insufficient to remove the slit that clogs the gravel beds. The clean gravel beds left behind by the dredgers provide optimum natural conditions for Salmon and Trout spawning. Since most spawning takes place above 800 feet I would like to see the large dredges be required to obtain a permit yearly, possibly restricting the size and number of dredges used. Keep up the good work.

  • Chugach National Forest Planning Area and the Three Different Geographic Areas of the National Forest
    Chapter 2 Ecological Conditions and Trends Chapter 2 Ecological Conditions and Trends Introduction Chapter 1 described the Chugach National Forest planning area and the three different geographic areas of the national forest. This chapter describes the overall ecological integrity of the area. Ecological integrity for this assessment is defined as: “The quality or condition of an ecosystem when its dominant ecological characteristics (for example, composition, structure, function, connectivity, and species composition and diversity) occur within the natural range of variation and can withstand and recover from most perturbations imposed by natural environmental dynamics or human influence.” (36 CFR 219.19) The ecosystems described in this chapter include terrestrial (soils, vegetation, and wildlife), aquatic (freshwater and coastal marine ecology) and the interface between the two (riparian areas and wetlands).These ecosystems are evaluated at the forestwide and geographic area scales where appropriate. Key characteristics of each ecosystem are identified, including species composition and diversity, structure, function, and connectivity. Existing conditions and trends of the key characteristics are described for each ecosystem. System drivers are also discussed and include dominant ecological processes, disturbance regimes, and stressors for the different ecosystems. This chapter also includes a discussion of federally recognized threatened, endangered, proposed, and candidate species that occur within the Chugach National Forest and a discussion of potential species of conservation concern. It concludes with a discussion and summary findings of the ability of the aquatic, terrestrial, and riparian ecosystems in the plan area to adapt to a rapidly changing climate. Physical properties of the environment both constrain and enable the development of some ecological systems within the Chugach National Forest.

Although dredging has the potential to cause Widespread ecological effects, only impacts to select species have been thoroughly assessed. Due to their reliance on freshwater habitat throughout multiple life stages, Pacific lamprey are significantly vulnerable to impacts from dredging practices.

The FMP governs commercial fishing for all stocks of fish, including all finfish, shellfish, or other marine living resources, except commercial fishing for Pacific salmon and Pacific halibut, which is managed under other authorities. The FMP was approved by the Secretary of Commerce on August 17, 2009 and implemented on (***DATE***). It may be referred to as the Arctic Fishery Management Plan. E.S. 1.1 Management Policy The Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq. (Magnuson- Stevens Act), is the primary domestic legislation governing management of the nation’s marine fisheries. The Magnuson-Stevens Act requires FMPs to be consistent with a number of provisions, including ten national standards, with which all FMPs must conform and which guide fishery management.

In order to prevent or mitigate exposures, a consultation may lead to specific actions, such as restricting use of or replacing water supplies; intensifying environmental sampling; restricting site access; or removing the contaminated material. In addition, consultations may recommend additional public health actions, such as conducting health surveillance activities to evaluate exposure or trends in adverse health outcomes; conducting biological indicators of exposure studies to assess exposure; and providing health education for health care providers and community members. This concludes the health consultation process for this site, unless additional information is obtained by ATSDR which, in the Agency’s opinion, indicates a need to revise or append the conclusions previously issued.
