Title:
Auburn State Recreational Area Resource Management Plan/General Plan EIS/EIR
Site: www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=24325
Summary:
Auburn State Recreation Area, managed by California Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR), is located on Federal lands administered by the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) within the proposed Auburn Dam and Reservoir Project. DPR will have the responsibility for the development of this plan. The planning time frame for this project is three years. The existing General Plan for Auburn SRA was completed in 1978 (a combination document with the Folsom SRA General Plan). This plan assumed the Auburn Dam would be constructed and an Auburn Reservoir would be created. Because construction of the Dam was not completed, an Interim Resource Management Plan (RMP) was prepared in 1992 to address resources, conditions and uses during this interim period of time. Congress voted not to fund the Dam in 1992 and again in 1995. The interim RMP lacks sufficient detail or analysis of the natural resources for the management of Auburn SRA as a river-based resource. Also due to changes in recreation use, there is a need for an updated recreation and resource management document for Auburn SRA until such time that Congress decides differently regarding the future of Auburn Dam.
