Description:The United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), the National Park Service (NPS), the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), and the California State Lands Commission (CSLC) are the designated natural resource trustees (Trustees) for the November 7, 2007, Cosco Busan oil spill in San Francisco Bay. In September 2011, the Trustees released a Cosco Busan Oil Spill Draft Damage Assessment and Restoration Plan/Environmental Assessment (DARP/EA) and, after consideration of public comments, released a Final DARP/EA in February, 2012. The Trustees supplemented the Final DARP/EA in 2013 and 2019. The Trustees, with this document, are supplementing the Final DARP/EA again to select as preferred alternatives for implementation three projects previously considered in the Final DARP/EA. One of these projects would address injuries to Large Diving Ducks and Loons and two of these projects would address injuries to Brown Pelicans, Cormorants, and Gulls. This Supplement to the Final DARP/EA (2024) selects 3 projects as preferred alternatives: 1) extending implementation of the Eelgrass restoration in San Francisco Bay project and 2) replacing the Berkeley Pier Project with the Alcatraz Island human disturbance reduction project and the Seabird habitat restoration on Southeast Farallon Island project. This document includes an Environmental Assessment (EA) of the Alcatraz Island human disturbance reduction project and the Seabird habitat restoration on Southeast Farallon Island project to satisfy the Federal Trustees’ requirement to evaluate the environmental impacts of the projects under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA; 42 U.S.C. § 4321 et seq.).
