<br />SUIIMARY <br /> <br />4. adjusting the reservoir management boundary and land for <br />project features; <br /> <br />5. modifying the fishery mitigation/recreation plan between <br />the proposed Jordanelle Reservoir and the existing Deer <br />Creek Reservoir by refining Provo River access require- <br />ments and eliminating plans for providing facilities for <br />boating and tubing on the river; <br /> <br />6. modifying the wildlife mitigation plan; <br /> <br />7. evaluating impacts and mitigation to area wetlands (not <br />covered in the FES); and <br /> <br />8. completion of consultation with the Fish and Wildlife <br />Service under Section 7 of the Endangered Species ~ct for <br />the June sucker, a recently listed endangered species in <br />Utah Lake. <br /> <br />This supplement also provides a brief update of the status of <br />the M&I System. Since the filing of the FES, some circumstances have <br />changed, some features have been constructed, additional geologic stud- <br />ies have been conducted, and progress has been made relative to commit- <br />ments made in the FES. In addition, this supplement provides National <br />Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) compliance for the 404 permit process of <br />the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as required by Section 404 of the Clean <br />Water ~ct and further serves as a Public Involvement Summary Report by <br />providing an account of how public comment was obtained since the FES <br />was filed and how this input was used in arriving at decisions affecting <br />the M&I System plan. <br /> <br />Status of the Municipal and Industrial System <br /> <br />Jordanelle Dam, Powerplant, and Reservoir <br /> <br />Jordanelle Dam and Reservoir will be constructed essentially as <br />described in the FES. Adjustments can be expected as new geologic and <br />other data are incorporated into the final design. Some adjustments <br />that have already been incorporated into the final des ign include the <br />following. <br /> <br />I: Moving the center line of the dam axis upstream about 200 <br />feet to obtain better foundation conditions. This action <br />will lengthen the crest from 2,800 feet to about 3,600 <br />feet depending on final design. <br /> <br />2. Lowering the minimum withdrawal elevation of the multi- <br />level outlet works from 6,055 to 6,040 feet above sea <br />level, allowing greater operational flexibility in the <br />selection of reservoir waters for downstream release <br />which will contain oxygen levels and water temperatures <br /> <br />S-2 <br />
