摘要

This document is the Record of Decision (ROD) of the United States Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation), Mid-Pacific Region, for the Safety of Dams and Dam Security aspects of the Folsom Dam Safety and Flood Damage Reduction (DS/FDR) project. The project is the subject of a Draft Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report (EIS/EIR) (DES-06- 53, State Clearinghouse No. 2006022091) dated December 2006, and a Final EIS/EIR (FES-07-01) dated March 2007, developed in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Folsom DS/FDR EIS/EIR addressed four separate actions to be implemented and constructed jointly and separately by Reclamation and the Department of the Army, Office of the Secretary of the Army (Civil Works) (Corps). These include: 1) The Joint Federal Project (JFP) Auxiliary Spillway to be constructed jointly by Reclamation and the Corps to address hydrologic dam safety and flood damage reduction issues; 2) Folsom Facility modifications to be constructed by Reclamation to address dam safety issues related to seismic, hydrologic and static concerns; 3) Security upgrades to Folsom facilities to be implemented by Reclamation; and, 4) Additional modifications to Folsom facilities to be constructed by the Corps to address flood damage reduction issues.
