Kern River - California Aqueduct Intertie

Abstract

As District Engineer of the Sacramento District, Corps of Engineers, I have reviewed and evaluated, in light of the overall public interest, the information presented in the Environmental Statement, other docurnents concerning the proposed Intertie, and the views of other agencies, organizations, and individuals on the environmental impacts and the various practicable alternatives to construction of the proposed project. My analysis was initiated with no preconceived opinion that construction of the project should proceed. The possible consequences of constructing the proposed project, as well as the alternatives, have been studied and evaluated for engineering feasibility, environmental effects, social well-being, and economic factors, including regional and national development. Specific attention was given to fulfillment of the public's need for flood control and flood damage reduction while weighing environmental considerations accordingly.
