American River Pump Station Project, Placer County, CA

The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) and the Placer County Water Agency (PCWA) have made available for public review and comment the Draft EIS/EIR for the American River Pump Station Project. The proposed project would develop a pump station and related facilities on the North Fork American River near Auburn, California. The project would allow PCWA to convey its Middle Fork Project (MFP) water entitlement to the Auburn Ravine tunnel to meet demands within its service area; eliminate safety concerns associated with the Auburn Dam bypass tunnel; restore the dewatered portion of the North Fork American River at the Auburn Dam construction site; and provide river access sites in the project area. Both facilities- and diversion- related impacts are addressed in the Draft EIS/EIR.
