REMINDER TO SUBMIT YOUR SCOPING COMMENTS BY TUESDAY, NOV. 13!
November 7, 2018
Another big thank you to those who attended our scoping meetings on Oct. 10 and Oct. 22, and to everyone who participated online. People still have one week to participate in the Capitol Lake/Lower Deschutes Watershed Environmental Impact Statement scoping process.
Scoping is the first step in the development of an EIS. During this phase, agencies, tribes, local communities, organizations and the public have an opportunity to comment on what should be analyzed and considered in the EIS.
Meeting participants talk with project staff at the Oct. 22 scoping meeting.
Didn't make it to a meeting?
That’s ok, join nearly 1,000 visitors to our online open house, which offers the content presented at meetings along with multiple ways to submit your comments.
Need some inspiration?
Visit the project library to review comments submitted between Sept. 26 - Oct. 22, 2018, including transcripts of verbal scoping comments submitted at the scoping meetings. We’d like your thoughts too, especially on the range of alternatives to consider in the study, potentially impacted resources, measures to offset impacts, and permits or other approvals that may be required.
