This Final EIS analyzes potential impacts associated with installation of water pipelines across public land administered by BLM. Rights-of-way applications for the water transmission pipelines (Projects) were submitted by Fish Springs Ranch, LLC and Intermountain Water Supply Ltd. to the Carson City Field Office. Each company is proposing to construct and prorate water supply and transmission projects to meet present and future water demands of the Stead/Lemmon Valley Areas (encompassed by the North Valleys Area Plan) in Washoe County. The proposed Projects consist of installation and operation of wellheads, electrical distribution lines, electrical substation, water pipelines, pump stations, surge tanks, and a terminal water storage tank.
