Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement Relevant to an Application for a Section 404 Permit, Federal Land Exchange and Ski Area Development; Adam's Rib Recreation Area Development Eagle County, Colorado
The Corps of Engineers published in the Federal Register, on June 17, 1993, its intent to prepare a supplemental draft Environmental Impact Statement (sdEIS) relevant to an application for a Section 404 permit to place fill material into wetlands adjacent to East Brush Creek, Eagle County, Colorado, for the construction of commercial/ residential development attendant to a four-season resort. This sdEIS is a prelude for preparing a Final EIS prior to a permit decision on the proposed development. The applicant, Kummer Development Corporation dba Adam's Rib Recreation Area, has applied for a permit to fill approximately 25 acres of montane wetlands pursuant to the development which would include 250,000 square feet of commercial space, 4,281 residential units, and 1,440 lodging rooms, employee housing, golfing and skiing for 9,000 skiers-at-one-time on Adam Mountain and Mount Eve. The USDA-Forest Service, as a Cooperating Agency, through this Notice, intends to directly participate with the Corps of Engineers to include analyses for impacts to wetlands and waters of the U.S. for the ski mountain and a potential Federal land exchange with the applicant for NEPA compliance.
