Please extend the public comment period on the plan to raise Shasta Dam until after the holidays (January 2014). It is unfair to expect citizens to review approximately 6,000 pages of technical data in three months, as part of your SLWRI Draft Environmental Impact Statement.
Why is this important?
My friends and I are concerned about the Bureau of Reclamation (Mid-Pacific Region) plan to raise Shasta Dam. The raising of Shasta Dam will flood sacred native sites, destroy existing resorts and marinas, dislocate the town of Lakehead, CA and impact our local economy in a negative manner.
