The Department of Water Resources (DWR) and other state and federal agencies leading the Bay Delta Conservation Plan (BDCP) announced this week that they will publish a recirculated Draft BDCP, Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Impact Statement (EIR/EIS), and Implementing Agreement (IA) in early 2015. The agencies are currently reviewing the comments received through the public comment period, which closed July 29, 2014.
The scope of the partially recirculated draft comments will be announced in approximately six to eight weeks. The recirculated documents will include those portions of each document that warrant another public review prior to publication of final documents.
RCRC’s comment letter on the BDCP Draft EIR/EIS and IA urged the revision and recirculation of the documents for public comment. The letter can be accessed here.
