1 MRERP EIS Individual Scoping Meeting Summary Bismarck, North Dakota August 18, 2009 October 28, 2009 MEETING OVERVIEW The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) hosted public scoping meetings to obtain feedback and comment on the Missouri River Ecosystem Restoration Plan (MRERP) and integrated Environmental Impact Statement. This document summarizes the meeting that was held on Tuesday, August 18, 2009, at the United Tribal Technical College, Multipurpose Building Healing Room, 3315 University Drive, Bismarck, North Dakota. To encourage maximum public participation sessions were held from 3:00 to 5:00 PM and 6:00 to 8:00 PM. While the structures, formats, and presentations of the two sessions were intended to be identical, the evening session was converted to a round table discussion due to the smaller number of people in attendance. The meeting was attended by a total of 18 people. Some attendees identified themselves as affiliates or members of the following interests and organizations. Interests: Agriculture, water supply, irrigation Organizations: Fort Berthold Fish and Wildlife Division, USFWS, Bureau of Land Management, Western Area Power Administration, media (KFYR TV), and private citizens MEETING PURPOSE The purpose of the meetings was to gather input on key elements of the MRERP and to meet the spirit and intent of the National Environmental Policy Act. This was the first round of meetings in a series of four public scoping sessions that will be held throughout the course of the project. The meetings were designed to foster a dialogue, gain understanding of the public s concerns and visions, and ensure that the public was given the opportunity by the government to be involved in and understand the plan development and environmental review process. MEETING FORMAT The meetings had an open house format, with an initial sign in period followed by a presentation (see Appendix B) on MRERP that included the project background; planning process; purpose, need, and scope; issues; and next steps and schedule. Following the presentation, attendees were asked to visit with project staff and review information stations that addressed project background and geographic scope, planning process and schedule, purpose and need, natural resources and human environment, visioning/future scenario for adults and children, and written and oral comments (see Appendix C). MEETING ADVERTISING The following public notice and advertising methods were used for the scoping meetings (see Appendix D). Legal notice in The Bismarck Tribune 21 days in advance.

E bulletin distributed to local Missouri River Recovery Implementation Committee (MRRIC) members 14 days prior. E bulletin distributed to local Cooperative Agency Team (CAT) members 14 days prior. Newspaper article advertising the meeting appeared in the Jamestown Sun on Monday, August 3, METHODS FOR OBTAINING COMMENTS Meeting attendees were provided a project newsletter and comment form (see Appendix A) and asked to provide comments on the project purpose, need, and scope and natural resources and human environment. Participants could submit written comments on comment forms and/or future visioning sheets, and/or comment orally to staff placed at the stations. The methods used to encourage attendee participation included: Public comment forms provided at the sign in table and the public comment table. Project team members documenting oral comments provided by participants visiting the information stations and recording them on paper or on flip charts at the information stations. A station, positioned in a semi private area adjacent to the meeting exhibits, for expressing oral comment. Attendees were offered a business card with the project web page and USACE and USFWS project manager contact information. COMMENT SUMMARY The following is a summary of all attendee feedback and comments gathered at the meeting, categorized according to topic. Purpose and Need: None provided. Scope: Several attendees were concerned with how the needs throughout the basin would be integrated. Natural Resources and Human Environment Natural Resources: None provided. Social: Several attendees wanted to see more recreation options. Hunting, fishing, and recreation on the river are important. Some attendees expressed an interest in getting the public involved and having an understanding of the rivers importance.
3 MRERP EIS Individual Scoping Meeting Summary Bismarck, North Dakota Page 3 Cultural: Several attendees were concerned with how the Tribes needs and values would be integrated into the project. Attendees noted that many ceremonies are associated with the river. For example, the mother earth ceremony is held every year for infants born that year where their moccasins are put in the river. Tribes came up the Missouri River to settle. Economic: Energy production is a major concern. Energy production could be a greater water user if other energy sources decline. OTHER COMMENTS Everyone wants the river to be everything it can be, but they don t understand what it takes to get there. North Dakota is saturated with public meetings, how do we make sure folks know about the project and comment? Conduct the meetings in areas where there are more people. Try to get the message out about this plan and what will happen if we don t get involved with it. Need to get stakeholder groups fleshed out because they re critical to engage in the process. The river is an important resource, but not everyone understands. All the water intakes will be high and dry when next drought occurs if more attention isn t paid to water levels. How will state issued water rights be featured /considered? Several attendees expressed the desire to see more of the plan as it progresses. NEXT STEPS These meetings are just one tool designed to elicit input on the project and plan purpose, need, scope, and key issues. Information obtained from the scoping process will help USACE and USFWS better understand what communities throughout the basin value about the river. The comments received through the public scoping meetings will be considered in the same manner as the other input received during the scoping process. After the end of the comment period on December 1, 2009, all input received by the USACE and USFWS will be reviewed through a process that categorizes and groups comments by their content so that they can be reviewed and incorporated into the planning process where and when appropriate.
