Reclamation Wants Your Feedback

Reclamation is requesting public comments on the SWISP Project Draft EIS.

To be most helpful, your comments should be as specific as possible. Substantive and useful comments are as follows:

  • Provide new information about the proposed project or suggest a new alternative

  • Identify a different way to meet the project need

  • Suggest alternate methodologies for analysis and the reason(s) why they should be used

  • Make factual corrections, or identify sources of credible research or data

Comments that are less helpful and considered non-substantive are those that:

  • Vote in favor of or against the proposed action or alternatives

  • Agree or disagree with agency policy without justification or supporting data

  • Do not pertain to the project area or the proposed project

  • Contain vague, open-ended questions

Ways to Comment

The public comment period for the SWISP Draft EIS ended on January 4, 2021. No further comments will be accepted by Reclamation; however, ongoing information and updates on the project will be available at Reclamation's SWISP EIS website.
