 The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) issued the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for the Moffat Collection System Project (Moffat Project) on October 30, 2009. The Corps has determined that additional studies are needed to fully address possible impacts of the Moffat Project. These studies will be directed by the Corps and will be completed in late 2010 or early 2011.
The primary issues raised in the comments relate to water quality, groundwater, aquatic resources, flow-related impact analyses, construction concerns, cumulative effects and mitigation of impacts. For more information on the Corps process, click here. If you have any questions, please contact Joe Sloan at 303-628-6320 or

The American Bird Conservancy and the Center for Biological Diversity had petitioned for the ban. The Toxic Substances Control Act, under which the petition was made, exempts ammunition from its controls. The agency will, however, seek comment on the merit of a ban on lead fishing sinkers. Adam Keats, a senior counsel for the center, said in a news release that “the E.P.A. has the clear authority and duty to regulate this very harmful and toxic substance as used in bullets and shot, despite the so-called exemption for lead ammunition.”
