Central Water Project - Water Service Agreement

The JLAs Release FONSI and Final EA

The Central Utah Water Conservancy District (District) and the U.S. Department of the Interior-Central Utah Project Completion Act Office (Interior), as Joint Lead Agencies (JLAs), have released a Finding of No significant Impact (FONSI) and a Final Environmental Assessment (Final EA) for the CWP – Water Service Agreement. The FONSI and Final EA have been prepared in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act, 40 CFR 1500-1508, and the Central Utah Project Completion Act (Public Law 102-575). The Agreement as documented involves the District entering into a multi-year water service agreement with Interior to utilize excess Central Utah Project (CUP) Strawberry/Utah Lake/Jordanelle exchange water delivered to Utah Lake. The excess CUP exchange water will be used to offset water right depletions associated with the Central Water Project (CWP). The CWP is a non-federal water project owned and operated by the District.
