ACTION: Second extension of comment period for review of Draft 
Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS).

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) is extending the 
comment period for the DEIS to April 3, 2006. The notice of 
availability of the DEIS was published in the Federal Register on 
September 30, 2005 (70 FR 57324). The public comment period was 
originally to end on November 21, 2005. A notice to extend the comment 
period to January 17, 2006 was published in the Federal Register on 
December 6, 2005 (70 FR 72652).

DATES: Submit comments on the DEIS on or before April 3, 2006.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Shane Hunt at 559-487-5138, TDD 
559-487-5933.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This extension will allow Reclamation to 
prepare and release supplemental information as part of the review 
process for this action. Reclamation decided to prepare this 
supplemental information to address issues and concerns that have been 
identified following preparation of the DEIS. The supplemental 
information will be available February 2006, at least 45 days before 
the end of the comment period on the DEIS. The public and agencies will 
be able to review this information concurrently with the DEIS released 
October 7, 2005, and may provide comments on the DEIS and the 
supplemental information in a single response. The final environmental 
impact statement will consider and contain responses to all substantive 
comments received on the DEIS.
    Our practice is to make comments, including names and home 
addresses of respondents, available for public review. Individual 
respondents may request that we withhold their home address from public 
disclosure, which we will honor to the extent allowable by law. There 
also may be circumstances in which we would withhold a respondent's 
identity from public disclosure, as allowable by law. If you wish us to 
withhold your name and/or address, you must state this prominently at 
the beginning of your comment. We will make all submissions from 
organizations or businesses, and from individuals identifying 
themselves as representatives or officials of organizations or 
businesses, available for public disclosure in their entirety.

    Dated: January 3, 2006.
Frank Michny,
Regional Environmental Officer, Mid-Pacific Region.
