Comments of American Rivers et al. on the Environmental Assessment re the Lyonsdale Hydroelectric Project under P-3255.

Summary: A coalition of environmental and outdoor recreation organizations (American Rivers, American Whitewater, Appalachian Mountain Club, and New York Rivers United) opposes the current Environmental Assessment for the Lyonsdale Hydroelectric Project. They argue that the proposed Staff Alternative fails to adequately mitigate impacts on whitewater boating, fish passage, and public access, and they request more rigorous requirements for recreation, land control, and cultural resource protection.
