control project on the San Luis Rey River. The study area is located in
the City of Oceanside, in the Northwest portion of San Diego County,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: To prepare for the preparation of the EIS,
the Corps will be conducting a public scoping meeting on 16 June 1999,
from 6:30 to 8:30 P.M., in the Civic Center Community Rooms located at
330 North Coast Highway, Oceanside, California. This scoping meeting
will be held to solicit public input on significant environmental
issues associated with the proposed reauthorization. The public, as
well as Federal, State, and local agencies are encouraged to
participate in the scoping process by attending the Scoping Meeting
and/or submitting data, information, and comments identifying relevant
environmental and socioeconomic issues to be addressed in the
environmental analysis. Useful information includes other environmental
studies, published and unpublished data, and alternatives that should
be addressed in the analysis. Individuals and agencies may offer

by attending the public scoping meeting, or by mailing the information
within thirty (30) days to Mr. David Compas. Requests to be placed on
the mailing list for announcements and the Draft EIS also should be
sent to Mr. Compas.
Alternatives
A full array of alternatives to the proposed action will be
developed for analyses. A survey of the existing flood control project
is being conducted to determine the present level of protection. The
proposed reauthorization could include the determined protection level;
or 100 year, or 150 year, or 200 year protection; and the no action
plan for detailed analysis in the National Environmental Policy Act
document.
