<br />. Dan McAuliffe (CWCB) pointed out that the EDAW study will be an <br />appendix in the document and the Cooperators will be able to review it in <br />the Draft so that there are no surprises. <br />. Gary Drendel (Tetra Tech) asked Dave to update the group on his findings <br />on the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) grants at Chatfield. <br />Dave said that there are six grant agreements at Chatfield but this project <br />is only impacting two or three of those. For those impacted, they have to <br />get approval from the National Park Service saying that if something is <br />removed it will be replaced in another location. There is nothing to turn in <br />to the NPS until the plans are developed and they know exactly what will <br />be impacted. <br />. Dave thinks that NPS will want to review the Draft EIS to make sure that it <br />is in compliance with their funding policies. <br />. Dave concluded by saying that the funding for the BBC Research and <br />EDAW studies looks fine. <br /> <br />3) FRlEIS Update <br />. Gary reported that Chapters 1 and 2 have been reviewed by the <br />Cooperators and the COE. Tetra Tech has incorporated changes and <br />given these chapters back to the COE. Dave added that the State has not <br />submitted comments on any chapters yet. <br />. Tetra Tech has Chapter 6 and will be turning it over to the COE in a week. <br />. Tetra Tech also has Chapter 3 and will be turning it over to the COE in <br />about two weeks. <br />. Tetra Tech has COE comments on Chapter 4 and will have it back to them <br />in about three weeks. It should go out to Cooperators by the end of June. <br />. Chapter 5 has been submitted to the COE and Tetra Tech is waiting on <br />comments. <br />. Chapter 7 is in draft form at Tetra Tech. Since it is a summary chapter it's <br />waiting on other things to get finished up. <br />. Question from Dave to Gary: how will the BBC Research and EDAW <br />studies be incorporated into the Chapters? Gary answered that they will <br />be appendices and then referenced in Chapter 4. The EDAW work will <br />also be in the cost analysis and that portion will go into Chapter 5. <br />. Katie Fendel (Leonard Rice Engineers for the City of Brighton) said that <br />she would prefer to have Chapters 4 and 5 at the same time because it <br />makes things easier to review. <br />. Question from Ann Bonnell (Audubon Society of Greater Denver and the <br />South Platte Chapter of the Sierra Club): what has to be in an appendix <br />verses the main body? Gary clarified by saying that an appendix is <br />designed to have the details of a specific analysis (e.g., water quality <br />modeling) on its own and then it will be summarized and referenced in the <br />text. Portions of the EIS are placed in appendices if they are so large they <br />disrupt the flow of the text in the main document. For example, the costs <br />estimates will be in a chapter but the actually number crunching is in the <br />appendix. <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />Tetra Tech <br />
