Update (May 15, 2025): Public Comment period extended, additional public meeting date added for Nicasio Spillway Modification Project's Environmental Review Scoping
Marin Water is extending the public comment period and adding another public scoping meeting for the proposed Nicasio Spillway Modification Project. The extension will allow more time to obtain suggestions and information from agencies and the public on the content and scope of issues to consider in developing the proposed project’s Environmental Impact Report, which Marin Water is initiating work on, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act. The public comment period was originally scheduled to close on June 4, 2025 and will now close on August 4, 2025. An additional virtual scoping meeting is now also being added to the schedule for July 15; this is in addition to the two scoping meetings that were already previously scheduled. This webpage has been updated to reflect the changes in the public comment period schedule.
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, Marin Water is initiating environmental review of the Nicasio Spillway Modification Project. The review begins with a comment period for agencies and the public to comment on the scope of the environmental review, including the project description, environmental issues to be analyzed and potential alternatives. The issues are described in a Notice of Preparation.
