<br />October 15, 1982 <br /> <br />Memorandum <br /> <br />To: <br /> <br />Files <br /> <br />Subject: Response to Environmental Protection Agency, September 20, 1982, <br />Letter on Draft ENvironmental Assessment for Dolores Project <br />Road Upgrading <br /> <br />1. Comment: <br /> <br />EPA has no objections to the proposed plan to upgrade these existing <br />roadways provided, as indicated in the environmental assessment, the pro- <br />posed fill into the Dolores River is in compliance with the necessary 404 <br />Permit. The Bureau should consult with the Colorado Division of Wildlife <br />and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to assure that the timing of this <br />activity does not impair fish spawning. The use of washed fill and <br />rip-rap material will help reduce the sedimentation problems which could <br />adversely affect spawning. <br /> <br />Response: <br /> <br />The Bureau will have the proper Section 404(b) permit before any fill is <br />placed in the Dolores River and will consult with the Division of Wildlife <br />and Fish and Wildlife service during the process of acquiring the permit. <br />
