SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of the Interior, the Utah 
Reclamation Mitigation and Conservation Commission, and the Central 
Utah Water Conservancy District have completed evaluating the impacts 
of the proposed East Hobble Creek Restoration Project. The Final 
Environmental Assessment has been completed in conjunction with the 
June Sucker Recovery Implementation Program, and provides an analysis 
of the anticipated environmental effects of a proposed restoration 
effort on a portion of lower Hobble Creek, near Springville, Utah. This 
restoration effort is intended to facilitate the recovery of the June 
sucker, a federally listed endangered species, through improvement of 
spawning habitat and maintenance of stream flow. The effort analyzed 
included the potential restoration of approximately 2 miles of stream 
channel, modification or removal of several existing barriers to fish 
passage, use of the Utah Lake System Hobble Creek Valve Station for 
supplemental stream-flow releases, and enhancement of the existing 
water supply.
